Sioux City Tribune: For loyalty to
ball club there probably isn't another
bunch of fans in the circuit like the
Sioux City bugs. They stick to a loser
just the same as winner. This Is the
when the local club has been playing
with Indifferent success and in sixth
place, with not much chance to climb
higher. the Sioux City fans have pat
ronized the games as freely as ever.
There has been no record breaking
crowds, but the average daily attend
ance has been good The total attend
ance to date for this season is prac-
tically the same as last year, when the
Packers were in first place. It is need
less to say that the management Of the
club appreciates this loyalty-and the
fans are going to be repaid. AS the
Champs seem to be out of it for this
season, the management now is direct
ing its attention to the season of 1912.
Right now Towne and Fairweather are
and if they land them they will have a
strong bunch when the bell taps next
spring.

Allison Davis
mot Guilty"
Sued For Seven Thousand Dollars
Damages Jury Returns Verdict
After Being Out But 20 Minutes

The case of Maier vs.. Davis
came to trial last Monday a. m.
before the District Court at Glen
dive. The whole CONTROVERSY grew
out of an accident which occurred
to Mrs. Maler over year ago, her
horse becoming frightened at Mr.
Davis automobile on the road
north Of town near the Carlson
place,
Mrs. Maier, so the evidence
showed, was thrown from ier bug
gy and slightly cut and bruised
about the head. As result of
her injuries she brought suit
against Mr.. Davis for $1,000. 90
damages, which she alleged to
have sustained.
Mr.. Davis witnesses testified
that he was driving his machine at
moderate rate of speed, did not
attempt to race Mrs. Maier, and
that he used ordinarily prudent
care in passing, that person
would use under similar .,ircum-
stances. One of his witnesses al
SO testified to the fact that the
horse Mrs. M aier was driving was
a fractions, leather -mouthed ami
NAL and unfit for woman to hand
lie.
The case occupied the better
part of two days, and went to the
jury about 4 o'clock Tuesday after
noon. They were out twenty
minutes and returned with a yer.
dict in favor of Mr.. Davis.
The same case was tried at tn e
last term of the District Court,
but disagreement of the jury,
necessitated re-trial this term.
Mrs. Maier was represented by
Anderson and Leahy, while Mr..
Davis was represented by G.. Q.
Hurley of Glendive, and Donalc
Campbell of the firm Of Loud and
Campbell, of Miles City.

verhasse!t Will Soon be Free

Last Saturday the case Of Ber-
nard Verhasselt, accused Of a Jail
delivery, came up for trial in Glen
dive, but before jury was drawn
Attorney Richard A. Baxter, who
was defending him, succeeded in
lessing the degree of the crime,
and secured 60 day jail sentence
for him instead,
Verhasselt, it sill be remember
ed, was tried last spring for a
burglary alleged to have been COM
mitted on the Stipek harness shop
but he was cleared on the States
testimony and found not guilty.
Attorney Baxter representing him
in this instance also.
We are inclined to think that
Verhasselt has already had his
just dues for the jail delivery, for
the reason that lie was held in Jail
at Glendive in the first place on
charge for which he was tried and
found not guilty.

Many Wibaux people have
stomach or bowel trouble which is
likely to turn into appendicitis.
It you have constipation, sour
stomach, or gas on the stomach,
try simple buckthorn bark, glycer-
inc, etc, as compounded in Adler
i-ka, the new German appended
tbs remedy. G. M. Allen, Drug
glst, states that A SINGLE DOSE
of this simple remedy relieves
bowel or stomach trouble almost
INSTANTLY.
The latest invention to hang in
the family dining room is the
gum board. It is a neat little
circular board, plain, or decora-
ted, fastened to the wall. The
name Of each Of the family is
painted on the circumference,
and marks the spot where the
gum is left until wanted. This
saves carrying the gum to bed
and getting it in ones hair or
swalling it in the night. It is
obvious that the gum board sup
plies a long felt want, and he
who invented the new fad will
have the best wishes of the
young ladies.
