Call OF the Calendar

Immediately upon conyening, the
roll Of the jury was called and then
followed the call of the calendar as
follows:
No ! was dismissed by the pros
ecutor No. was continued over the
term In No. 3 a nolle was entered as
regards Repro but Macki was called
for trial No. was also placed upon
trial and No was continued over the
term with f. p Lott appointed to

No was settled as was also No 9.
No 10 was continued with No H., a

Nos MS, 10. 20 and Fl were conunu-
cd over the term and No, 20 put upon
trial No "a was stricken from the
calendar By agreement and No. 25
and % were continued over term
No 2G, the tax cases, had to be
heard and No Is of the chancery
docket was also put on for a hearing
All the cases not mentioned were held
in allegiance, some to be settled. others
to be disposed of later
This left Judge Flannigan with
nine cases for trial, the work to be
done in five days.
First Criminal Case
The first criminal case called was
that OF the case of the People vs. Alex
Salo. This is the ease resulting from
the striking of man with a bottle
last Christmas eve back OF the opera
house saloon. John McHale of Iron
River was appointed by the court TO
conduct the defense and Mr. McHale
went at the task with a vim that sur
prised the court attendants. He took
the theory that the defendant was
not the man that committed the as
sault and I'm this contention he seem
ed TO have the prosecution pretty well
up in the air. The taking of testimony
consumed all of Monday afternoon
and on Tuesday morning the case was
given to the jury What seemed a
trivial case took considerable OF the
iury's time to dispose OF for il was
11;45 before Il was announced that a
verdict had been arrived at
The Jury found that man guilty of
assault and battery only.
I'm the meantime the case of the
People vs Mack was taken mp and the
court selected Clarence Dwyer to de
fend t. Mr. Dwyer went NJ his task
with just as much earnestness Ns II
he was under a ten thousand dollar
retainer The work of selecting
jury consumed the entire forenoon.
After Mr. Dwyer had let quite mum
bcr of the jurors OF the regular panel
go for cause or on a peremptory
challenge IL became apparent TO
Judge Flanniean that he needed some
additional timber SO he ordered The

OVER ONE THOUSAND PUPILS WERE
TREATED LAST MONTH
TRUCK QUESTION STILL UP
Seagrave Company Claims That it
viii Yet Make the Machine Per-
form According to Contract

The city council met last Monday
night TO consider the business on hand
for h and to allow the claims that
hatei been held up for two months
avjl&ng the disposal of the bonds
Thelist OF bills presented amounted
10 about $1,000 and among them
were a lot OF vaccination charges by
the physicians OF the city. The vac
cination had been ordered by the state
board Of health and on Jan. 22nd the
council agreed 10 pay for All cases OF
vaccination to city pupils after that
date. The whole number presented
for payment was 1855
The work of vaccinating has been
completed as the school authorities
adopted rule that any pupil not
vaccinated must stay out of school.
Most OF the physicians consider the
indiscriminate vaccination under the
circumstances an unnecessary burden
imposed upon the city, as the disease,
whether 1t was chicken or small pox,
had run its course among the child
rem. The vaccination against chicken
pox was of no avail and If it was
small poX that was going around,
vaccination was unnecessary except
ing to those who had not had the eff
fection and there are mighty few
children in town that have not been
effected

WHOLE WEEKS CELEBRATION
Descendants of Old Spanish Settlers Observed Christmas With Din.
 ners and Parties.

Among the descendants of the old Spanish settlers we find that they Ob- serve week in the celebration of Christmas. This begins one week be- fore Christmas. In the daytime they have dinners at each others homes, and in the evenings they give series of parties at the different houses. In the evening the young folk go to the home of one of their number and knock, and then all begin to sing. Those within the house ask, "Who is there?" and the answer Is, "The Vir- gin Mary and St. Joseph seek lodging in your house" To carry out the Bi- ble story they are at first refused ad- mittance, and then the door is opened wide and they are all given hearty welcome.
 On Christmas eve tho old and young all join together and have . big celebration. In large hall they fix up one side to represent the man. ger, and here they very solemnly give a little play in which many take part, the characters being Mary and Jo' seph, the wise men, the shepherda and the angels. This play is very real to them, and they all play their parta with a reverent spirit.
