COON DOG PROVES UNSAT-
ISFACTORY, BUT MONEY
is LOST IN TRANSIT

An appeal from justice court
has been made in the case of
Grant Holden, of Yale, against
the American Railway Express
company. Judgment was grant
ed Holden for $120 in justice
court at Yale for money lost in a
transaction in which the pur-
chase of a coon hunting dog was
made from Williamstown, Ohio.
Holden alleges that he pur-
chased the dog on a trial basis,
with the understanding that $100
was to be paid the express agent
as security upon receipt of the
dog. If within 20 days the dog
proved to be unsatisfactory the
money was to be refunded.
1t is further claimed by Holden
that the dog proved unsatisfac-
tory and that he returned it to
the express agent and paid charg.
es on the shipment back to Viii.
Jamestown. He then claimed his
500 but the money had been for
warded to the Ohio man from
whom the dog was purchased.
Efforts to secure the money af.
ter the return of the dog proved
unavailable, so the plaintiff
claims.-Port Huron Times-Her.

wound on the side of his face and
John Palmateer, aged rs, proprie-
tor of a pool room and grocery
store at Fargo, is lodged in the
county Jail as a result of a sup
posedly accidental shooting af-
fray at that place on Wednesday

A charge of assault with intent

murder was placed against Mr..
Palmateer.
Wiley was hit in the face by a
bullet from a gun discharged in
the Store owned by Palmateer as
he stood in front of a display win
dow of the store. Window glass

his face.
Palmateer maintains that the
shooting was entirely accidental
that the gun was discharged as he
opened drawer in which the
gun was resting.
Sheriff Windsor, who arrested
Palmateer at Fargo Thursday
morning said that he had been
called to that place several times
upon complaint of Palmateer,
who claimed that a group of Far.
go youngsters were continually
"pestering" him. There had been
no complaint about Wiley both
ering Palmateer. The injured
man is married and has a family.

The Greater Gift
TO q Little Girl

Kenosha is witnessing a most inter-
esting triumph of science which is
bringing the greatest gift to one little
Kenosha girl. Agnes Mccoy, the two
year-old daughter of the Rev. and Mrs.
Charles Everett Mccoy, was born blind
but now the little girl, thanks to the
triumph of science, is beginning to see
and in some time in no distant future
the birds and the flowers and al the
interesting things of nature are going
to have new interest for her.
The little girl went through the first
two years of her life in total blindness.
Specialists shook their heads and said
that they feared nothing could be done.
1t was found that there was film over
the eyes of the little girl, DR.. T. w.
Ashley decided upon daring opera
ton. He opened the water ducts in
the eyes and in this manner the film
has been dissolved. The lenses of the
eyes were broken by the operation but
science is supplying new lens in the
way of spectacles.
This morning the little girl toddled
out along the sidewalk alone. She
could see her way and it brought a
new joy to her and new comfort to
those to whom she is most dear. The
little girl can not see perfectly but
time is going to heal this defect and
with changes of spectacles it is ex-
pected that in some future time she
will be brought nearly to normal sight.
Little Agnes is probably the young
est child in Kenosha to wear glasses,
but these glasses represent a triumph
of science which is bringing back to
her that sight which is going to make
life real life interesting and life
dear.
