SOMETHING DOING
If. JUSTICE ARCHER'S
COURT THIS MORNING
From Tuesday's faailv.
In the courl of Justice M. Arch
er today the forcible detainer
case of J. I. Taller against Mrs.
S. Worden, alias S. Williams, was
up for hearing and the courl
ordered a judgment issued against
he defendant. The case j; row out
of the renting of a, house of Ihe
plaintiff's by I lie defendant and
later when the owner of the house
was notified of the usages that
the properly was being put to he
notified t'le woman that she could
not occupy it after her month's
re u I was np, and at once took
steps to have her removed, as Ihe
neighbors had been complaining
of the fact ihat there were too
many isitors at the place and
several of the callers had made
Ihe mistake of calling at the dif
ferent houes in the neighbor
hood. The woman will be put out
of ihe house al once.
Judge Archer also had Jesse
York before him this morning on
a charge of fighting, and on the

The Mistake Not the Journal's.
From Tuesday's Daily.
In the church notices of the
Christian church, which appeared
in this paper Saturday evening,
the statement appeared that it
would be Itev. I. L. Dunkleberg
er's last. Sunday in this city. This
was evidently an err.or on tiie part,
of the person getting up the
church notices and was made
without any idea of retlecting in
any manner of our friend Ilev.
Dunkleberger. All the church
notices published in the Journal
are prepared by either the min
isters of the different churches or
some member of I heir congrega
tions and, the editors or publishers
of (he paper have nothing to do
with them in the way of writing.
We I rust this will be satisfactory
to. the gentleman, wjio mentioned
Ihe mistake in the pulpit Sunday
night.

THE ESTATE OF NICHOLAS
HALMES STILL IN DISPUTE
Prom Wednesday's Daily.
The transcrrpt'of pleadings, am
judgment made upon the claim o
of Joseph llalmes against the es
state of his father Nicholas llalm
es has just been filed in tlhe oflice
of the district clerk. In the orig
inal claim the sum of $1G,800 was
asked, but in the amended peti
tion it was changed, to $16,o00
The claimant alleges that during
the month of February, 1003, sev
eral limes a verbal agreement
was made between the claiman
and his father Ihat if he would
improve and cultivate the quar
the section of land, near Green
wood, the lather would deed or
leave the same lo him in his will
Later in July,-1912, the land was
sold by Mr. llalmes, sr., for Uu
sum of 20, 000, and the agree
ment was made, so it is alleged
between the father and son that
Joe was to receive the sum of
sit). 800, ami later a codocil wa
made lo Ihe will which cut him
off with a much less sum. The
answer of the slate (o the claim
was Ihat the claimant was left
Ihe sum of 0,000 by 1 1 he codoc
il, together with 1.00 which tin
father as security had paid for
Joseph and that the claimant ha
been present al, saie of Ihe laud
and offered -no protest lo the sab
and the matter was not in any
manner opposed by the said
claimant at the time and thai the
prese.nl action had no grouni
The county court denied the
claim for -SlG.yoO but allowed Jo
seph tin! sum of -sG.ouo for im
provements he" had made on tho
farm. The matter will bo
brought up at the next term of
the district court.
GETS 1,350 BUSHELS
'.- OF OATS ON '25 ACRES
v'rom Wednesday's Daily.
The line small grain crop that
was harvested in this county this
year "makes Ihe farmers feel
mighty good and the report of
the crop on the farm of our old
friend. Mr. J. M. Meisinger, looks
mighty good. On a tract of some
twenty-live acres of oats the yield
was 1,350 bushels, which is cer
tainly a dandy showing and will
go a long way lo make up the
shortage in the corn crop. The
wheat on the farm of Mr. Mei
singer made an average of 28
bushels to the acre, which is also
a very flattering average. These
figures are about the average re
turns for Ibis seel ion of the
county and should make the Cass
county farmers smile when they
realize how- well they have been
treated in the way of crops.
