Sixty Local Actions Fought.

There were sixty local actions during
the period under review, some of which,
says Gen. Haig, although individually
insignificant in a war on such an i'm
mense scale, would have been considered
worthy Of separate dispa tch under diff
ferent conditions
The dispatch closes with a tribute to
Field Marshal Viscount French, who,
says Gen. Haig. Starting the war with
our small expedtionary force, faced an
enemy far superior in numbers and fully
prepared for this great campaign
During the long and anxious time
needed for the Improvisation of the COM
paratively large force now serving in this
country" continues Gen. Haig. he over
came all difficulties. and before laying
down his responsib. lities he had the sat
isfaction of seeing tho balance of adj
vantage swing steadily in our favor
Those who served under him appreciat tie
the greatness of his achievement

READY To GIVE AID
TOFREMCH ALLIES
Gen. Haig Says British Have
Done All They Were
Asked to Do.

LONDON, May 30.-Gen. Sir Douglas
Haig, commander of the British forces in
France and Belgium, in dispatch COW
ering the operations of the British army
in that territory from December 10 last.
when he took over the command, until
| May 10, pays high praise to the French
defense of Verdun and reviews in detail
the actions in which the British have
taken part.
During this PERIOD he says, the
only offensive effort made by the enemy
| on great scale was directed against our
French allies near Verdun. The fighting
| in that area has been prolonged and Sc
we're. The results have been worthy of
! the traditions of the French army and of
| great service to the cause of the allies.
THE efforts made by the enemy have
caused him heavy losses, both in men and
prestige and he has made these sacri-
| fees without gaining any advantage to
| counterbalance them.
Ready to Cooperate.
During this struggle my troops have
been in readiness to cooperate as they
might be needed. but the only assistance
asked for by our allies was of an in
direct nature, namely, the relief of the
French troops on a portion of their de-
fensive front. This relief I was glad to
be able to afford. Its execution on
considerable front, everywhere in close
touch with the enemy, was a somewhat
delicate operation. but 1t was carried out
with complete success, thanks to the cor
dial cooperation and good will of all
ranks concerned and to the lack of enter
prise shown by the enemy during the re-
lief"
While no action comparable with that
at Nerdun has been fought on the British
front, Gen. Haig says the struggle has
been continuous and that there have been
many sharp local actions. The mainte-
| nance and repair of the trenches alone
entailed constant and heavy work He
| speaks of the continued activity of the
artillery, infantry, airmen and sappers
and miners and adds:
"Ever-present threats cause more con-
slant strain than any other form of war
fare

CONTRACT FOR NEW SCHOOL
BUILDING NOT LET

Last Tuesday was the day set for
the board of education to receive bids
for the new school house. There
were 13 bidders. Inasmuch as the
lowest bidder was too high for the
appropriation, it was impossible for
the board to award the contract. An
other session was held yesterday but
no definite steps in the matter were
taken.
Attorney Mel Graham is looking
into the law to see if the contract
cannot be awarded without another
special election being called to vote
on additional bonds. All kinds of
materials have advanced from 10 to
40. percent since spring and for that
reason the appropriation lacks some
thing over $4,000 to complete the
building as called for in the specifi-
cations. II is to be hoped that some
way can be found whereby the board
could proceed with the building this
year
The highest bid on the building
was by Zitzel, $5S,300 while the low
est bidder was James p Riddell,
$53,11S. The lowest bid on heating
and plumbing was by G. w. Bradley
$14,245. The lowest bid for wiring
was $1.4SS. The total amount. for
the building heating and wiring was
$6S.S51.
II is the intention of the school
board to build this year so the school
room can be used at the earliest pos
sible moment.

Hi MENDENHALL WINS
IMPORTANT DECISION

Hi Mendenhall who for many years
has been getting royalty on his pat
ent from the manufacturers of the
One Minute washing machine, won
another important decision this week.
He brought suit through his attor-
neys against Montgomery Ward &
Co., for infringements of the patent.
He won the suit in the lower court
but the company appealed the case.
The high court affirmed the lower
courts decision and yesterday Mr..
Mendenhalb received the following
telegram from his attorney, Wallace
r. Lane of Chicago:
Have just received telegram advis-
ing that court of appeals for the sec
ond circuit at New York has affirmed
the lower court in case of Iowa Wash
ing Machine Co., VS. Montgomery
Ward & Co. Held Stocking & Men
denhall reissue patent valid and in
fringed. This is the highest court in
patent cases except in rare special in
stances. This decision means that the
Stocking & Mendenhall patent has
now after a long and arduous fight
been finally upheld as valid in every
respect. You have my heartiest con-
gratulations.
The telegram was received with
much enthusiasm as it involves some
thing over $1,000 in this instance
alone. There are number of other
large manufacturers, who upon learn
ing of the decision will pay large
sums of royalty to Mr.. Mendenhall.

AUDUBON BUSINESS MAN
BECOMES A BENEDICT

F. II. McFadden, one of Audubon
young business men was united in
marriage with Miss Bertha Ross at
the home of the brides parents, Mr..
and Mrs. S. D. Ross, at Grand Island,
Nebr., Monday, April 10th at 1890
a. m. Only the immediate family were
present to witness the ceremony per-
formed by the Rev Alexander, pastor
of the Grand Island Presbyterian
church.
The bride is quite well known in
this city, she having held the position
of Domestic Science teacher in the
public schools of Audubon several
years, and during her stay here made
many close and intimate friends. She
is a young woman of many splendid
qualities and exceptionally we'll quail
fed to fill the position of queen of
the home.
The groom grew to young man
hood in this community and during
the past number of years has been
closely identified with the business
interests of the town. He is the son
of Mrs. Abbie McFadden and by his
industrious habits and sterling worth
of character has found a place in the
front ranks. He but recently re-en-
gagged in business in this city, having
purchased the Hoover furniture store
last January.
Mr.. and Mrs. McFadden returned
to Audubon yesterday and will go at
once to housekeeping in the Layland
property vacated last week by F. C.
Sampson, where they will be at home
to their friends after May first.

DECISION IN PARNHAM CASE

Judge Woodruff has just notified
the attorneys in the case of John
Parnham VS. Millicent Butterton, ct
al of his findings therein. This case
was tried in the last term of the Au-
dubon county district court and ii
was agreed that a decree might be
entered in vacation.
The issue in the case was the vail
dity of certain quit claim deeds
which John Parnham had secured
from certain heirs of George Parn-
ham, deceased. The ones giving the
quit claim deeds claim that they exc
cuted them at the request and solicit
tation of John Parnham, and when
signing them did not know that they
had any interest in the estate OF
George Parnham, and supposed they
had to sign them in order that the
estate of Millicent Parnham might be
properly settled. The said Millicent
Parnham being the wife of George
Parnham
The court held that the securing OF
these deeds amounted to fraud in
law, and ordered them Cancelled, and
decreed that they were owners of a
certain interest in the real estate left
by George Parnham.
John Parnham ct al were repre-
scented by Graham & Graham, j. III,
Ross and S. G.. Kerberg and the heirs
by Mantz & White, all of whom are
practicing lawyers in this city.

refined vaudeville, which will be put
on as the occasion warrants. A fine
electric Emerson foot power and hand
playing piano will be placed in the
orchestra pit, which will be five feet
deep, six feet wide and eighteen feet
long, enabling the instrument to give
forth its best tone. The acoustics
of the building will be as near per-
feet as 1t is possible to secure them.
Provision has been made for two exits
in the rear, which when once opened
will remain so. This will guard
against the danger of anyone being
caught in fire trap. A typical and
modern picture show front will grace
the entrance of the building. and will
be an ornament to the street. The
front entrance will be through six
double acting Craftsmans doors. The
seating will be provided for with
about 400 latest pattern opera chairs
equipped with hat racks and number
plates. Pictures will be thrown on
the screen by Biard moving picture
machine, weighing 500 pounds. This
machine stands six feet high, six feet
long and three feet wide, and is capa-
Bile of handling at one time 5000 feet
of films, exceeding all other ma
chimes. This enables the operator to
show six complete acts without inter-
'ruption.
Pictures will appear on the screen
life sized and a quarter The patrons
of the Crescent theatre will be enabl-
ed to see all of the features of the
actors, This screen is used in the
Strand theatre of Omaha, and the
Empress theatre OF Des Moines. The
room will be fumigated every day.

tertainment benefitting any church,
lodge. school or club by notifying
Messers Prestons ten days in advance.
The price of admission will be ten
cents. Pictures for children will be

theatre building is in the hands of G..
A. Green. He has built theatres at
Muskogee, Oklahoma; Shawnee, Ok
lahoma; Norton, Kansas; Chattanoo-
ga, Tennessee; Gedsdan, Alabama !;
He thus has had experience in the
erection of such a building, enabling
the insurance of first-class, modern

COUNCIL ACCEPTS BIDS
FOR STREET PAVING

The city council met last Thursday
evening to open the bids for the 26
blocks of paving. A number of bids
for seven different kinds of paving
were filed. After the bids had been
opened it was a hard problem to de-
eide what should be used. After TAX
ing the matter under advisement and
consulting with the property owners
it was decided to use asphaltic con-
crete which was offered at S1.30,
This was considered a good price and
the contract was awarded to the MAJ
tional Roofing Co., of Omaha. The
total amount being sS3,00O.O0.
Asphaltic concrete is considered a
splendid paving and has given excel
lent service for many years in num-
Der of the county seat towns in the
state of Iowa. 1t has a five inch base
upon which two inch asphaltic con-
crete mixture is laid. Carroll and
other cities near here are paying
more for the same kind of paving, so
Audubon is indeed fortunate in Sc
curing such splendid bid.
Here is to better and greater Au-
dubon. A good slogan would be,
Keep your eye on Audubon"
