very satisfactory work Of the officials
added pleasure for the spectators
Both teams played a close guarding
game in which the Seminary had the
advantage and demonstrated the efiie-
iency of team work over that of the
individual star. Jenny scored all the

Among the decisions of the su-

court in the case of L. D. Arnold
VS.. c. Hoffman & Son of Enter
prise. This is the old flood case
brought by Arnold and several 9TH
err farmers, claiming that the Rock
Island bridge and Hoffman's dam
caused the overflow of the Smoky
Hill river on the bottom farms. Ed.
Little was their attorney and he
brought suit against both railroad
and the Hoffmans. The court held
that two different parties could not
be sued for the same action in one
suit. The Hoffmans demurred and
were sustained. The case was ap-
pealed and the decision is affirm
ed. The matter has dragged for
years in the courts and may never

NEGRO BRIDE OF DAY
SICS COPS ON HUBBY

Paschal Smith and Maud Black.
negroes living in Salina, were mar
ried in probate court here Friday.
The police answered a call from
Maud ON the first night of their
welded life. The Salina Journal
tells the story:
1t seems that the trouble arose
during the evening celebration. Pas
chal had attempted to emphasize his
new-found authority by throwing d
flatiron on the floor. The resultant
shock knocked cup and saucer or
of the center table, breaking them.
Then came the call, but since by vir-
tue of the marriage Paschal was
now in his own home and had sim
ply broken a cup and saucer 1t was
not thought necessary to ask him
to pay $11 for the disturbance.
The marriage took place at Abb
lene yesterday and the officers are
not sure but that some liquid re-
freshments may have been added to
the wedding supper after the re-
turn of the couple to Salina. Both
bride and groom were until very
recently inhabitants of the county
Jail and have on numerous occa-
sions caused trouble for the officers
and board bills on the part of the
city. Now Smith declares he is ready
to earn an honest living if his wife
will brace up. Maud did not seem
favorable to the new plan of mar
ried life last night.
