THE GRAND JURY
HAS ADJOURNED
Nothing in Way of Infracton Of the
Criminal Law, and Jury Ad-
iourned Without lndicting.
ASSIGNMENTS MADE TUESDAY
Week Will Be Taken Up With Case Of
Miller VS. Harrison County, De-
fendant Suing for Injuries

The district court convened Monday
afternoon, Judge Hutchison presiding.
The train did not arrive until late in the
afternoon and nothing of Importance
was done except to impannel the grand
jury and to send them out prepared to
look after the enforcement of the GRIM
inal laws. t. A. Hickey was selected
and sworn as foreman, and Ed Reimer,
J. H. Schmadeke, Ingwer Hollander, F.
A. True, G. H. White and Broder Boy
sen as members of the grand jury.
There certainly could not have been
much in the way of infraction of the
criminal law because the grand jury
finally adjourned on Tuesday after
noon and not single indictment was
returned, as we find upon inquiry at
the clerks Office. E. T. Cochran acted
as clerk of the grand jury, but he does
not look any the worse for wear on
account of his arduous labors.
Assignments of the cases were made
on Tuesday morning. The first week
will be taken up with the trial of the
case on change of venue from Harri-
son county. This is a case in which
damages are claimed for personal In
juries. The case is brought by G. N.
Miller, a resident of Harrison county,
against Harrison county for damages
and the charge is made that the in
juries were suffered on account OF q
defective highway and without any
blame on the part of Miller. The coun'
ty on the contrary claims that it was
not in any sense to blame, and if any
one is culpable it was the plaintiff. We
have not heard the evidence and there
fore cannot undertake to say what the
evidence discloses and have no opinion
to express as to the result. There are
attorneys sufficient in number en-
ployed to furnish entertainment for the
litigants. the jury, the court and them,

trial, among which Is that Of the Pea

FIGURE
PASSES AWAY
P. A. McCarty, Resident of Denison
Since the Early Sixties, Dies at
His Home Monday Night.
Had Many Friends Who Spoke Kind
Word of him-Had No Rela-
tives Other Than Son.

1t is rare thing that the Review is
called upon to chronicle the death of
one who has lived so long that "the
mind of man runneth not to the con-
trary," but it can be said to be almost
literally true of P. A. McCarty, whose
death occurred on Monday night at his
home in this city.
Mr. McCarty has been a familiar
figure in Denison back so long as in the
COS, and there are but few people liv-
ing in the county who remember his
coming here to cast his destinies with
the people of this community, but he
has seen other men come and other
men go until his friends even Won
dered if he would be able Ito go on
forever" If we should undertake to
say what the age of Mr.. McCarty
was at his death, we would be merely
guessing. The comments one hears
on this subject cause confusion,
as some say he was under 80 and 9th.
ers that he was upwards of 80. The
probabilities are that his age ranged
somewhere between so and 80. He
was married several years ago, his
wife dying about two years ago and
since that time he has lived practical
ly alone at the old homestead.
The deceased spent many years in
Denison engaged in drayfng and while
it was not a source Of great income to
him, it furnished him support. Fre-
quently people wondered how a man
so old could lead such an active life,
but it was no doubt due to the fact
that he had naturally splendid con-
stitution and lived the outdoor life. It
cannot be said that he indnlged him
self in the way of many comforts in
life as some other people enjoy, and it
is pfdnoh)v due to, this fact that he
lived the long life he, had to his credit.
Mr.. McCarty had great many
friends in Denis0n. People who were in
the habit of meeting him often always
| had d kind word for him and he glad
ly returned it. II he had any relatives

NEW turn IN THE
NORRIS FAILURE.
Meeting Of Creditors Was Held at the
LaSaIIe Hotel in Chicago on
Tuesday Of This Week.
KELLY WOULD PURCHASE STOCK
Makes Offer of 60 Cents on Dollar for
the Accounts; Proceedings to
Start Unless Settled Before

A new turn was taken in the Norris
failure few days ago. After Norris
was induced to make general assign
ment for the benefit of his creditors
some of them, not satisfied with the
provisions, caused a petition to be
filed in the United States district court
at Council Bluffs to throw Mr.. Norris
into bankruptcy. The hearing on this
petition is set for the 10Th of this
month at Council Bluffs, when if some
adjustment is not made, the probabil
tiles are that he will be adjudged a
bankrupt.
1t was partially to forestall this
movement on the part of the Omaha
creditors that the meeting was called
at the LaSalle hotel in Chicago fol
Monday last. The meeting was held
as scheduled a large number of cred
itors. perhaps representing three
fourths of the Indebtedness, were pres
ent in person or by proxy at the meet
ing. Some time was spent in order tc
ascertain the situation in regard to
the stock and management since il
came into the possession of Mr.. Norris
A proposition was made on the part
of T. ]. Kelly that he would sell his
claim on basis of 60 cents on the
dollar, or that he would purchase the
other claims, when properly proved
on basis of 60 cents ON the dollar
The latter proposition seemed to strike
the creditors more favorably and the
meeting broke up with the understand
ing that the creditors should make an
effort to see if they could not all be
induced to Join the proposition of tax
ing 50 cents on the dollar on theil
claims and an effort will be made tc
induce the Omaha creditors to with
draw the petition to have Norris ad
Judged bankrupt.
The chances are that if the case
should 60 through bankruptcy that no,
so much would be realized by the cred
itOrs as they would secure in the set
tlement proposed. If the settlement
is carried out the probabilities are tha
the business will be continued, bu,
under a different management

ONLY TWENTY
DAYS TO Win
Contestants in Reviews Big CircuIa.
tion Contest Are Doing Their Best
in These Remaining Days.
PAST WEEK WAS A GOOD ONE
Hundreds Of Subscriptions Have Beer
Turned in by Young Ladies; No
Difficulty to Get New Ones.

There are only twenty more days
remaining for contestants to work in
the Reviews great circulation contest.
as the contest will close Saturday
evening, December 9th, at 8 O'Clock.
All of the contestants are doing their
best work in these few remaining
days and it would be a hard matter
for anyone to even make guess as to
which one of the young ladies will
have enough votes to win the five pas
senger automobile. There are sever
al contestants who have about the
same number of votes and the work
done from now until the close will de
eide who the grand prize winners will
be.
The past week was an exceptionally
good week in the big contest anti hun
dreds of subscriptions have been
turned in by the young ladies. New
subscriptions are pouring into the Re-
view office and if the present pace
keeps up Crawford county's best fam
lily newspaper will be going into the
majority of the homes in Crawford
county and this was the object of the
Review in conducting the biggest con.
test that has ever been held by a
weekly newspaper in western Iowa.
The young ladies working in the con.
test tell us that they have no difficulty
in securing new subscribers for this
paper and that it is generally conced.
ed that the Review prints more Craw.
ford county news than any other pa
per in the county.
Young ladies will notice that an ex-
ira vote offer is being made again this
week and for every $40 turned in on
subscriptions, whether new or old
they will receive $4,000 extra votes.
This is in addition to the regular vote
schedule and while not as large as the
offer which closed last evening 1t is
the largest extra vote offer which will
be ymdsss This offer will close next
Tuesday; November 18th, at s p. m.
and we expect that contestants will
take advantage of this liberal offer
and secure many thousand extra votes.
We are again making extra induce.
