DECISION IN AN ODD CASE.
Judge Arthur, who has been hold
ing court in Harlan during the past
few weeks, had very peculiar case
before him. 1t is said that there have
been but two similar cases in the
courts of the United States, one in
Michigan and one in Kentucky. In
1884 the wife of Nyram Pratt died,
leaving the husband and daughter
seven years old. The Martin e. Cur
family adopted this motherless child,
and she was known as Maude Estelle
Curl. In 1892 when the adopted girl
was fifteen years old. the father ask
ed that his daughter be returned to
Kim, and this was agreed to by EIr.
and Mrs Curl, foster parents OF the
| girl, and papers Of adoption were
made out and this time she was adopt
| cd by her own father. In 1911 Mar
tin Curl died without leaving a WlAs
/ his wife having previously died. FL
Il left farm of 200 acres. The girl
whom he had at one tinle adopted
had grown to womanhocd by this time
and had married man named Holraes.
At the November term of court Mrs.
Holmes filed a suit claiming an in
terest in the Curl estate by reason of
her having been the adopted dough
ter of Martin Curl. The other heirs
of Mr. Curl resisted her claim and
Che case was hard fought one, the
other heirs claiming that when she
was adonted bv her father she lest all
claim to the estate Of her foster par-
ent. Judge Arthur, however, held
that she was entitled TO share in the
estate Of Martin Curl. as once adopted

been organized in Nebraska.
Each regiment will be composed of
1900 men, made up Of twelve COM
panies of 100 men each.
One regiment is entirely composed
of Omaha men. The other will have
one company in each of the larger

The equipment has been furnished,
and consists of regulation army rifles
and machine guns.
The purpose of the organization is
to take care of any emergency which
may arise before the national guard

WOODBINE IL; MO. VALLEY 81.
Local basket ball fans witnessed
the first game and also the first vic
tory of the season last night, at the
Gym, when the High school team de-
feated the Woodbine High to the tune
of 81 to II, Crowley of Creighton
officiating in very acceptable man
ner. Although the first game of the
season, the locals displayed marked
ability in passing and basket shoot
ing, and, with the finish, that only
constant practice gives, by the end of
the season they ought to bring home
another championship. Otis johnson
for the locals and ''Wiggie" for the
visitors, attracted particular atten-
ton, being the smallest and at the
same time very dangerous men. The
Woodbine fellows played in their usu
al clean sportsman-like manner, and
our boys look forward with pleasure
to their meeting "Johnson's" men at
Woodbine later in the season.
The boys go to Omaha next Friday
evening.
