Judge Woodruff has just handed down
a decision in which he overrules the
motion for new trial in the case of
Bisgaard VS. Duval which case was tried
in the February term of the District
Court. This means that .Duval will
either have to satisfy the Judgment of
$1,000, rendered against him by the jury
or else appeal to the Supreme Court. 1t

some time last summer and was an &C
ton for false arrest and imprisonment.
1t seems that Bisgaard had been work
ing on his farm 10 Greeley township
and sometime in July Duval claiming
that Bisgaard was crazy caused him to
be arrested and thrown into Jail. No
hearing was had before the commits
sioners of insanity and after brief in
generation he was released from custody
Later he brought action for damages in
the sum of $4,000. He was awarded
$1,000 and Duyal made a motion for a
new trial with the above result H. NJ.
Boorman of Atlantic and Mantz &
White of Audubon appeared for Bis
gard and Mr.. Duval was represented
by J. M. Graham and Cosson & Ross

Girl Dies From Burns.

Guthrie Center. Ia, May 6.-Mary
Russell, aged years, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs Roy Russell, prominent farm
ers living about fourteen miles west of
here, died tonight at the Harrison hos
pital as the result of burns received this
morning about 10 o'clock, when her
clothing caught fire from straw stack
which had been fired by playmate.
The mother at the house, about 300
yards away, heard the screams of her
daughter and rushed frantically to the
scene. She was, however. without means
to smother the fire and in her frenzy
tore the clothing from the little ones
body. Her hands were badly burned in
her effort to save her baby's life.
The child's skin was burned to crisp
about the legs, arms and stomach. Her
father started at once for this place to
the hospital and though he reached it in
half an hour and medical aid was at
once summoned to stay the hand OF
death, the little one passed away to-
night.

A Grand Old Lady Passes Away.

Special to the Republican, Hamlin,
Iowa. Mary A., daughter of Jacob and
Catherine Kennedy Horton was born in
Larentum, Allegheny County, Penn,
January 22nd, 1925 and died, the last of
her family. at her daughters home in
Hamlin, May 4th, 1913 aged SO years,
3 months ands12 days. She was united
in marriage to George w. Clark, Octo-
Der 18th, 1S47. To this union nine
children were born, four of whom died
when young.
In October 1865 the family removed
to Rock Island county, Ill. In 1889
they came to Audubon county living
on their farm in Greeley township then
in Extra and later in Hamlin where the
husband and father died ten years ago.
She had been with her youngest daugh-
ter in Rock Island since last July and
very much desired to return to her old
home which she did April LIST. Though
feeble she seemed much better for a few
days, but the infirmities of old age and
weak heart caused her to take her
bed and after many days suffering, she
passed on to the better world. She had
united with the Methodist church in
girlhood and was member of that
church at Old Hamlin. In talking with
her children and grandchildren shortly
before her death she expressed satisfac-
ton that her long journey was so nearly
ended and that Though walk through
the valley and shadow of death l will
fear no evil for Thou art with me.
She leaves to mourn the loss of kind
and loving mother, five children. Jeanett
.Gsrnett, of Hamlin; James t. Clark, of
Eunice, Missouri; Ada Genung, of
Staples, Minnesota; w. L Clark. of
Hamlin, and Grace Crompton, of Rock
Island, Illinois. Also fifteen grand child
rem and ten eat-grand- children. The
funeral services were held Tuesday at
ten o'clock in the Methodist church at
Old Hamlin and conducted by Rev
Lawton of Extra. The solemn process
sion then wendell its way to Maple
Grove cemetery at Audubon where the
remains were laid to rest.

Cannon's Statue Said to Grin.

In carrying out the party program 1T
is claimed that the Democrats have
found it beneficial to resort to some of
the old Cannon rules which few years
ago were SO vigorously assailed. Lead
or Mann of Illinois, reminded the
Democrats of the House of this on a
recent occasion, and here is what he
said: "A few moments ago stepped
out into the lobby back of the Speakers
chair and looked at the marble face of
the statue of Uncle Joe Cannon, and
found it in broad grin. 1t was Uncle
Joe who drew the resolution 10 years
ago for the passage of the sundry civil
bill without amendments and without
debate. 1t was your side which for IS
years has been reviling Cannon and
Cannonism, and now the only defense
you can make for what you are doing
is that you are doing what Uncle Joe
did 10 years ago.

supper was enjoyed, after which games
with plenty of good healthy exercise
was INDUCED in. When time for re-
turning home approached, they were
more than surprised to find the team
that had brought them out, was missing.
At first they thought some one had fol
lowed them out and had taken their
team back to town for joke, but later
it was discovered that some mischievous
member of their own crowd had hid the
team in some other spot in the grove
where il was later discovered.
They returned to town in the carry

thoroughly satisfied that Esco was a

~Oueered" The Deal.

1t would seem that Ollie Conley, who
has an action in court against r. @.
Spencer, of Audubon, was considerably
instrumental in 'queering" the sale of
the Cass County Advocate printing out
fit, advertised to be sold in Atlantic
one day last week. 1t was to be a
public sale, and Ollie was there in all
his glory, and gave notice of possible
tangles in transfer. in view of the fact
that the printing outfit was in liti-
cation. Mr.. Spencer was there also.
and gave notice to Ollie that he did mt
want him around, no time, not at all;
bat like the boy on the burning deck,
Ollie just staid there. especially after
the mayor decided that he had a per
feet right to be in evidence; and the
only bid that was submitted. aside
from that offered by Mr.. Spencer, of
81, 000.0 90. was one for $4,000 which of
course didn't buy.-Anita Record.

Wrist Is Badly Cut.

Knud Hansen, the efficient clerk at
the F. A. Buthweg clothing store, had
his wrist badly cut shortly after dinner
Monday. He stumbled on the steps
leading into the post Office and threw
up his right hand to prevent his falling
onto the cement steps, but instead,
threw his hand through the glass in the
door cutting his wrist to such an extent
that it required twelve stitches by the
surgeon to close the wound which bled
.profusely. Two leaders in the wrist
were severed and the wound was almost
deep enough to cut the large arteries.
Mr.. Hansen suffered considerably from
the loss CT blood, but today is not suffer
ing any pain and the wound is healing
rapidly. Ii was indeed a narrow escape
as the severing of the arteries would
have caused him to bleed to death.

''Freckles" by Gene Stratton- Porter,
the most widely read novel of the
present decade-a million people have
read it-has been dramatized by Neil
Twomey, and will be seen in this city
at the opera house Saturday, Jan. 25th.
1t is under the personal direction of
A. G. Delamater, who Is one of the
most prominent producing managers
of New York. He has given the play
a sumptuous setting, and has engaged
a company of the best players.
In the dramatization Of this novel,
Mr.. Twomey has followed the text
faithfully, reproducing every scene
contained in the story. Not alone is
It interesting but tensely dramatic 1t
is pastoral play, beautiful in tbs sim
plicity and in telling the adventures
and love story of a homeless Irish lad
in the great Limberlost swamps of In
diana. There is no character in mod
ern fiction endowed with such simple
nobility and wonderful sweetness. II
is a greater play than 1t was a, novel;
there is nothing left to the imagina-
ton. Crosbie Gill, the famous scenic
artist of Wallack's theatre, New York,
has pictured the great swamp and its
environs with consummate skill, and
the electricians and stage mechanics
have completed the picture, equal to
nature in every detail. It will be a
dramatic event in Pensacola the same
as it has been in other cities.
