IN NEW YORK

With the coming of cold weather
New York subways are being en-
ployed for their usual winter use as
Ravens for down-and- cutters. The
fare is five cents and two round trips
on the I. R. T. from Pennsylvania
avenue, Brooklyn to Van Cortlandt
Park in the Bronx requires most Of
the time between midnight and day
break. Since no transfers are used
in the subways and no fares collect
ed by conductors it is possible for
one to stay in the subway day upon
day for one fare. The other day
Mrs. Mary Precipio, 81, of Brooklyn,
reported to the police that she had
spent her last nickel to find shelter
for herself and her two children in
the subway.
Miss Margaret Callaghan, 60, was
committed to Bronx county Jail six
months ago because she refused to
surrender certain bonds to the exc
cutors of her sisters estate. Under
Surrogate Foley's order the area of
her confinement was narrowly limit

from the surrogate to allow her to
attend Christmas mass, following

HONESTY WITH PROSPERITY
(St. Paul

ISL. raul PiOneer-Press)
With the return OF prosperity to
the Northwest. repeated instances
OF the intrinsic honesty prevalent
among the mass of mankind, some
times lost sight of and submerged
in a period OF distress and depres-
sion, are coming to attention.
Such instances as these:
A farmer west of the Missouri
river returned to community
from which he had moved and paid
a note for $4,000 that was five
years Overdue, with interest in
full, remarking: IL have made
money this year: you were decent
to me; | want to pay my honest
debts" Or this of an Eddy coun-
ty, n. d., farmer who owed $1.7OO
and whose property when sold UNI
der the mortgage brought but $500.
He returned to the creditor and
paid him the $1,000 difference, and
did it voluntarily. Or, again, OF a
farmer who had taken shelter UNI
der the bankruptcy law, and in
sisted on paying the interest on
his loan and arranged to pay the
principal. even though the law had
wiped out both. Or of the farmer
who entered a store and caused all
kinds of trouble by compelling the
eXhlmation Of musty ledgers that
he might pay a store bill of five
years ago. Or of another who was
permitted to remain on fore
closed farm, to use his horses and
and was advanced seed
and feed and expense money, who
from this years crop paid every
thing he owed and now owns
three-Quarter section farm clear.
These are but a few of hundreds
of such well authenticated cases.
Set alongside the stories of des-
peration during the depression per-
iod they proved again the economic
law that a prosperous people is an
honest people.

Sweep. 1--WE may as we'll hop on

his footprints when he gets out of

When Snitcher Snatch reached the
corner, he stopped for minute for
breath. His long nose was very red
from running so hard. Besides he
had bumped it on the swinging door
in his hurry to get out.

The severe cut in the citizens

mended by the budget bureau is
not justified. Forty thousand
young men are expected at the

In 1921 about 10000 young Amer

there were $4,000; in 1923 there
were $4,000, and in 1924 about 34,-

900 should be provided for. The

The citizens military training

Jourgen Olson,
Respondent.
SYLLABUS:
1. Pending an appeal by the de-
PENDANT in an action to foreclose on
certain real property, the Supreme
Court ordered that the sale on exc
cution of the property involved be
stayed and postponed until after the
final disposition of the cause. The
judgment appealed from was affirm
ed, but the court expressed a doubt
as to the propriety of the sale on
the postponed date and ordered that
appellant might, if he so desired, ap-
ply to the district court for the pub
LEGATION of new notice of sale. Such
application was made and condition
ally denied and the sale had. Held
that the trial court, having denied
the application for a new sale and
having ordered the sale to proceed,
thereby exhausted its discretion un-
der the mandate of the Supreme
Court, and the sale, having been
made, must be- treated and consider
ed the same as any other sale of real
property on execution.
2. Section 7752, c. t.s19l3, pro-
viding for the confirmation of sale
on execution, contemplates an ex
parte application only, and the court
may look no further than the face of
the return. If it appear therefrom
that the proceedings were regular,
then the sale must be confirmed.
3. Whether a sale on execution
shall be set aside is matter which
rests in the sound discretion of the
lower court and the courts action in
that regard will not be disturbed
unless an abuse of discretion be
shown.
4. Mere inadequacy Of price will
not, in the absence of exceptional cir
cumstances, warrant the setting
aside of an execution sale.
S. Record examined and held, for
reasons stated in the opinion, that
