Sev eral of the men of town kept strict watch during the night, but they maae no attempt at violence 01 any kind. Out in Rooks county the steel range agents reaped, for a brief sea son, an abundant harvest.

While the harvest was being reaped th steel range merchant In Stockton had a spasm of common sense and adver tised. His advertismeuts were proof positive tbat the agents were work ing the people, and the harvest came to a sudden end and they betook them to Logan county. It pays the Country merchant to advertise to advertise in his town paper and to luvvrttse contiuously. His adver llsement is death to the traveling of do I I We carry a full line of Fresh Garden i Seeds in bulk. Also carry alfalfa, red clover, white clover, blue crass, cane Geo.

Pardee and Bert Richardson, of Wamego, and Jim Comisky and Ed Leonard, of St. Marys, were tried and found guilty by juries; John Condon, of St. Marys, entered a plea of not guilty and after a jury had been sworn to try the case, withdrew his plea and entered one of guilty, after which Bert White, Will Hard-ten and Bert Grooms, all of St. Marys entered pleas of guilty and will re ceive sentences soon. It is said that their sentences will be a fine of $100 each and costs, and thirty days in jail, the jail sentence to be suspended during their good behavior.

Five of them will pay and the remainder serve their sentences out in the bas-tile. The way of the joint keeper is hard, when we have a county attorney who is in sympathy with the law. Those who loudly asserted that Badgley "couldn't," now begin to believe that he can. At least he did. In the case of Charles Dixon Com mission Co.

vs. B. P. Cunningham, brought for the recovery of some thing near and which was docketed for Monday, a settlement was had, Barney paying the company $1,500, and settling all costs. It would appear from rumors that Barney was not alone at fault in this suit.

In fact, there were two sides to the suit, as there nearly always are. We are glad that it is tormina ted. John Lauer, one of the well-known residents of near Moodyvilie, died last week, after a few days' sickness of grip. He had but recently pat ented a device for the removal of obstructions from the throats of fat tening cattle, also colic, and was making arrangements for a thorough canvass of the country in thy interest of his invention. John was a good old fellow, everybody liked him and his death is deplored.

Mrs. Geo. E. Stoliker died at her home iu Moodyvilie, last week of neuralgia, brought on by grip. She was an excellent woman; beloved by all, and her bereaved husband anil two daughters have the sympathy of all in their sorrows.

"tiffe Cochran" brokeLth'e Loues in his right hand by striking an unruly olti sow over the head with that mem ber of his body. And he don't like it a bit, either, seeing that spring work is just upon him. Some of the toys think it funny, but youcouldu make Olio believe it under any cir instances. The county commissioners met in regular session Monday, and out tho first thing they did was to appoint a Mr. Green trustee of Blue township, iu place of R.

Con Smith, of Spring Creek, brought a son before the commisson- ers, Monday, and asked for an order Committing him to the imbecile asy lum at Win field, lie was accom panied by Mrs. J. II. Millgnte, of the same township, In the trial of the liquor cases, one witness, O'Brien by name, could not tell what constituted a "joint, until Judge Thomson ordered him to jail, after which he soon recollected that it is something akin to a sa loon and so informed the court. When walking in return from jail he remarked to the siierill, bay, Ben, I believe I have made a fool of myself." Ben thought so, and thus the matter ended.

The marshal should see to it that better order is kept in the city during court sessions.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES. Teachers' examination at the court house iu Westmoreland on Saturday, April 21), beginning at 7 a. m. Paper and ink furnished. Teachers will bring pens.

The recent examination for diplo mas produced fifty-three applicants. Most of them show some very good work, but we wonder sometimes where they found the peculiar meth ods that some of them use in spell ng. It does seem to us that out of ten words given that those who missed nine of them should have made a better record. Fellow teacher, are you coming to the next ndrmal institute which will convene here on May 22 We desire to enroll 60 to 75 the first day and of course we can do that if you are here. Our schools need at all times wide awake, well informed, energot ic, progressive teachers.

Are you of the number of those who are always striving to know a little more today than you knew yesterday Do you desire to so prepare yourself for next year's work that you will be more useful than you were the year past? Are you really and truly anxious to got on to a higher plane of the tenchfirs' work and thus be able to bring to your pupils a better article of a teacher work Do you feel that you need more "snap," "vim and "tact" than you have possessed heretofore? Then come to our six weeks' Institute and we will do you good. Watch for the announcements which will go out to every teacher in the county in a week or two. Any one else who is interested may have a copy of our announcement on mak Ing application, Those teachers who know of any young people who would like to attend the normal will confer a favor by sending their names to the superintendent so announce ments may be sent out.
