The authorities Sunday arrested
x
still in the home Of Mrs. Richards
in the south part Of town. A prelim-
mary hearing was held before Justicel
Flavin Monday and. defendant was
bound over to the next term Of county
court under $500 bonds, which he fur
nished. The evidence at the trial con-
nected Jess Black in the operating of

the county Jail.
Mrs. j. HI. Stephens submitted to an
operation for the removal of her tom
sils Monday in the Yankton hospital.
She stood the operation we'll and is
recovering from the effects. There Isl
no apparent change in the loss of her
eyesight, but the doctors have every
hope that her vision may return as
suddenly as it left her. Mrs. Steph-
ems friends hope and pray that this
blessing may not be withheld long.
She is cheerful and bears her misfor-
tune with patience and fortitude.
We just learned of the marriage Of
Sam Henderson on July 5th, 1920, to
Miss Ethel M. Fox of Geddes. How
Sam succeeded in keeping the event
smudged SO long is mystery to us,
but he did it until this week, when he
brought his wife to Springfield. Sam
4soJ 1~1 I,r1r ~,
Olivet. Mrs Henderson spent the
time visiting in Northwood, Iowa,
While Sam was holding down his
homestead. We may appear pretty
tardy but The Times sends its most
hearty congratulations nevertheless,
and wish Mr.. and Mrs. Henderson un-
bounded happiness.
Cur light and power plant was clos
ed Monday afternoon by the county
sheriff and remained closed until last
| night. The power house management
and Lloyd Patterson had some differ
ences over the settlement of con-
tract for the construction of the cleo
trio line between Springfield and Avon
and the plaintiff attached the plant.
This procedure interferred with the
business and convenience of hundreds
of people, patrons of this public utility
and it seems shame that such action
should occur. We do not propose to
place the blame, but it does appear
that the comfort of the public IS de-
serving of more consideration.
A special election was held in
Springfield Monday when the people
voted upon the sewer question. There
was light vote but bonds in the sum
of $4,000 were voted by substantial
majority. The next move will be the
sale of bonds and then the city s'i'l
be ready to begin work on the sewer
system. This is an improvement
| Springfield has needed for many years
and we are proud of the excellent ex-
preston of our citizens at the polls
| Monday in favor of better town.
| When the sewer has been put in the
| city should go right on, either paving
or graveling our main street and i'm
| prove our water system. And this
summer the city officers should ex-
| tend the concrete sidewalk system in
every part of town. There are too
many places still without walks. Some
of these places walks have been ord
cred in, but the order is not enforced.
