AT THE NORMAL

of Sheriff Kay it is confidently
announced that the battling
case of the lost baskets
balls will be brought to
trail Monday evening, March
II. This sensational case will
be tried in the assembly room
of the Normal building.
The District Attorneys Office
has the assistance of Lowe and
GRANDSON, while the defense will
be in charge of the we'll known law

difficulty is anticipated in securing
a jury but Judge Dickey may be
depended upon to expedite matters
and prevent waste of time.

of the two defendants, admission
to the court room will be by tickets.

sheriff's office in the normal build
ing on the evening of the trial for
the insignificant sum of twenty. five
cents.

awake. All were interested in the
work he was doing at River Falls.

he was working in the right
direction, and that he might count
on them for. heartp cooperation.
