BOARD TODEClDE
IF LAKE Can BE
LEGALLY i 4 |, |. ! LOWERED 4 ]
Nicollet County Holds FL
nal Hearing, On
Project.

Whether or not Swan Lake can be
legally lowered is question to be
decided at the final hearing which took
place before the Nicolet county board,
today at the st. Peter court house,
Those opposed to the ditch contend
that meandered lake cannot be
lowered as, provided in the plans for
Swan Lake. 5..E .@z
1t is understood that many Of the
property owners around the lake are
opposed to the lowering. The majori-
ty, however, are for It. Rumor has
it that the majority Of the present
board has been pledged to support
it. If such is the case, the ditch will
probably pass and must be carried
into court by the opposition if they
hope to stop it. #5S,
III The hearing Wednesday is called at
10 o'clock at the commissi ioners' room
in the court house. Spmsen, Dempsey
e Flor, attorneys Of New .Ulm, have
been retained by the petitioners and it
is understood that number Of pro-
minent attorneys have volunteered
their services to the Minnesota Game
Protective league, the organization
which IS taking up the fight.
The project is known as County
Ditch No. 81. a petition for its con-
struction was filed on April 18th, 1917 !,
and the survey was completed and
fled on March 18th, 1922, by Engineer
r, D Minium Of New Ulm. It's esti-
mated cost has been placed at s334, Y
o22.s4. The total cost Of construction
would exceed $4,000 according to the
expenditures already made for sur
veys, viewing and the like. It's bene-
fits are estimated at s72, ,839. so.
With such strong opposition even
within their own camp, the future Of
The Big projec is indeed obscure It
has been hinted that some o5fs the
strongest opposition would come from
property owners, whose claims for
damages make the costs prohibitiye..
The ight off carrying the case into
the district court and even into the
supreme courts also rests with the op-
position ould the county board pass
on it favorably ST. ST fstsr Il erald.

after every one had left the plant

"But / don't believe in this jinx
business" Arthur protested. Even
if did pass under the ladder the
bank elected me cashier this after
noon. But to please you I will go
under ladders and walk over brooms
the rest Of my life.''
Now Arthur starts out to remove the
jinx Helen fears and encounters 2
series Of adventures which seem un-
paralleled for their hard luck. Thru
out it all, Helen maintains that con-
ditions would have been worse if he
had not removed the jinx? Is she
right?
Arthur started out to kill the, jinx
by going to the sign board where he
had made the blunder Of defying a
ladder leaning against it.. But the
ladder under which he had walked
was no where to be found He was
dismayed until he found a ladder
against nearby house. He secured
it, leaned it on the sign board, walked
under it and then replaced it against
the house. No sooner had he placed
it back where he found it than q man
appeared on the roof Of the house, slid
down the ladder, knocked Arthur
fiat and disappeared in the darkness.
AS Arthur rose to his feet he noticed
a small package lying on the ground.
He picked it up.
