Mrs. Wright Ent ertains.

The many friends of Mrs. J. G..
Wright truly enjoyed Wednesday
afternoon, spent in needlework.
This feature was broken, however,
by a short guessing contest relative
to sewing.
The ladies all proved adopts in
this art and since the guess was
unanimously correct, the prize, a
handsome box of chocolates, was
partaken of by all.
Elegant refreshments were served
by the hostess, assisted by Mrs.
Swift and Miss Wright, after which
musical numbers by Misses Jones,
Blanche Rowe and Wright added
much to the entertainment of the
afternoon.
Mrs Wright's cleverness at en-
tertaining is so we'll known it is hard
ly necessary to say that the after
noon was most delightful one to all
present, who were as follows:
Mesdames. L. N. Swift, c. w.
Felt, L. c. McMahan, ]. P. Jones

PUBLIC SCHOOL NOTES.

Last Saturday an aggregation of

dained that there should be a foot
ball game between the N. H. S. and
the Grangeville H. S.
About eight o'clock the assembled
group, composed of rooters and play
ers, started in automobiles for
Grangeville, where they arrived at
ten o'clock. The game started
promptly at two, Nezperce winning
TO 0 all because we had a conceal
ed quarterback in the person of Lynn
Kelly.
A drizzling rain fell during the en-
tire game and made the grounds
lake Of mud, which slowed the play
ing considerably. The teams were
quite evenly matched and it certain
ly was good game.
Great credit is due to the loyal
rooteTs who went along and stood
out in the rain and helped their team
win.
A return game will be played here

pleted in the manual training room

Campbell Case Court Feature

| The trial, or rather retrial, of the
case wherein VIM. Campbell is suing
the Bank & Trust Co. of Vollmer for
$25 900 damages for alleged false i'm
prisonment and injury of character,
etc., is the big number on the district
court calendar here this week.
The case was called for trial Tues
day morning and the lawyers worked
on the jury panel until 400 p. m. be-
fore they had sifted out II that suited
them, and then an additional venire Of
10 jurymen was required to pick from.
The jury: Jas. A. Kennedy, ]. W..
Powell, E. F. Edwards, Philip Weeks,
julius Trukosits, VIM. Nelson, Frank
Hilderbrand, ]. w. Westfall, F. E.
Gardner, M. Sharkey, A. Caldwell and
P. w. Walters.
Mr.. Campbell was put on the stand
at 400 and continued as the target for
the questions of his own as well as the
opposing counsel until 800 p. m.
Wednesday. When he was dismissed
the jury had his story OF ups and downs,
joys and sorrows in his business rela-
tions with the defendant company pret-
ty well by heart.
At the conclusion of his testimony
the plaintiff rested and the defense in
troduced their testimony. The first 6
witness for the defense who gave their
testimony yesterday afternoon were w.
w. Brown and E. H. Dyer of Grange
vile, E. W. Lentz of North Yakima,
Charles L. Monroe, of Lewiston,
Martha Stevens of Vollmer and L. N.
Swift of Nezperce. The evidence for
the defense was well in by noon to-
day, and it was expected the testimony
in rebuttal would be brought to close
early enough this afternoon to permit
two speeches of the argument, in which
event Judge Steele stated he would
hold night session and conclude the
trial. A verdict may be expected then
by morning.
The, attorneys in this suit are, C. I.
Mcdonald of Spokane and S. o. Tan
nahill of Nezperce for the plaintiff, and
James E. Babb of Lewiston and P. w.
Mitchell of Nezperce for the derend-
ant.

public interest attaches is that of Rosa
B. Donaldson VS.. j. w. Donaldson.
This is a suit for divorce involving
property interests to the value of $25,
900, and is set for Friday. The at
torneys in the case are P. w. Mitchell
for the plaintiff and A. A. Holsclaw of
St. Maries for the defendant.

America by way OF the Mississippi
river, romantic stories Of fabulous
wealth to be acquired by youths Of
snap and IRE had begun to cause va
Cant chairs at some of this cfty's fam

to believe that the approved way Of

all Americans down there wore pith

OF the young man down there was very
