After a trial lasting nearly fou
days, the jury brought in a verdict
not guilty for Isaac Putnam, charge
with stealing some corn from tn
place of E. E.. Kirkdorfer in Germa
township.
The jury returned in about tie
minutes-just as soon as they could
ballot and sign the verdict. Tha
State fell down completely and Mr.
Putnam received complete vindica.

Here was a long drawn out and ex
pensive trial both for the state and
the defendants and there seems net
to have been enough evidence against
the defendant to warrant a trial

defended Mr.. Putnam. The argument
took up nearly all the afternoon on

Destructive Storm.

The storm which killed two per.
sons near Halloway on Tuesday even
ing. an account of which is found in
another column, also did considerable
damage in the western part of this
county. The Chokio Review says -
"Tuesday evening small cyclone
struck south of Johnson. travelling
in southeasterly direction and did
heavy damage to farm property along
the Stevens Big Stone line and ex-
tending into Swift county. At the
Ole Lovass farm a barn was blown
down as was the barn on the A. Lund
place. while the chimney on O. R.
Pederson's house was taken off and
Fred Jenson's engine standing in the
field was stripped of it's canopy top
and considerably damaged by ab undle
rake being blown onto it.
''All the buildings on R. A. Cooper's
farm were destroyed and farther east
the blacksmith shop at Artichoke
was blown down and Ed. Robinson's
large new barn was demolished as
was also barn of Mr.. Shulz.
"Besides the destruction of build
ings,a great deal of damage was
done to the grain by reason of the
shocks and stacks being blown down
and the bundles scattered out allow
ing the rain that accompanied the
wind to soak every bundle. 1t was
the most severe storm that we ever
had and it is very fortunate that no
one was injured.'

County Fair Buttons.

Look at the number on your Fair
Button, and then look at the number
on your neighbor's button. 1t may
be worth your while.
The County Fair management has
this year adopted a unique method of
advertising the dates of the fair by
means of buttons. Every button is
numbered, numbers running from
100 up. In the whole number dis
tributed there will be thirty duplicate
numbers, and these duplicates draw
prizes. For example, suppose your
button is nubmered $50, and if you
find upon the lapel of your neighbor's
coat a button also numbered $50, you
and your neighbor by appearing at
the secretary's Office on the fair
grounds between the hours of and 5
of the last day of the fair will re-
ceive one dollar. A few of the
duplicate buttons will not be distri-
buted, but will be attached to some
article which will be exhibited at the
main building on the fair grounds
during the third day of the fair. and
the person presenting the hutton with
the same number as the one attached
to the article will receive the article.
These articles will be contributed by
the merchants and will be worth
many times the price of admission.
So we say. watch your neighbor's
button; but if you do not find the
duplicate. attend the fair, take your
button along, and you may find the
duplicate there and with it there will
be valuable prize.
The buttons may be had at the
Morris National Bank and some will
be sent to the neighboring towns for
distribution.
