CATTLE The receipts of cattle proved to bo light today , only BOO head belnc re ported , ns ngnlnst l.fiSS yesterday and 1.7S9 on Wednesday of last week. Yesterday's Etonn , which covered most nil sections of the state , may Imve been one cause of the light receipts todny. Among the offerings of cattle the proportion tion of beef steers wns qulto large nnd the quality ranged from fair 10 choice. With PO few cattle In sight and with the prospect of light receipts during the next few days the buyers all seemed to be anxious for cat tle. Then , too , the rei > ortB fram other mar kets were encouraging nnd the result wns an advance of 5rtlOc. Not only was the market higher , but It wns more nutlve than on most daya of late , and the offerings changed hands readily , the yards being soon cleared. Two bunches of corn fed steers of very good quality , averaging 1,481 nnd 1571 pounds sold nt $1.10 , the highest price pnld In several weeks.

Appeal from Cednr county. Affirmed. Opinion by Com missioner Irvine. A died Intestate leaving surviving him neither Issue nor father , mother , brother or flstor. There wcro surviving four children of a deceased brother , eight children of n tleceiit-cd sister nnd three children of n de ceased ( .laughter or such sister. Held , thnt under our statute of descent the twelve surviving iiuphcws nnd nieces took ench one- twelfth part of the -Intestate' ! * land per capita , and thnt the grand nephews nnd grand nieces took nothing. 2. Such a case falls within the fifth sub division of section 30. chapter 23 , compiled statutes , and not within the third subdi vision. 3. Inheritance per stlrpes tlocs not -ob tain under our law except where ntllrma- tlvely provided. 4. The ruin of Inheritance per stlrpes Is In general applied only from , necessity , ns where the heirs nro of unequal degree of kinship to the Intestate. Where they nrc of cqunl degree they take ns principals , . It Is the object of our statute to cut oft Inheritance per stlrpcs among collat erals where nt any point beyond the chil dren of brothers and sisters the surviving kindred nre of equal degrees. In such care those who claim through the nearest ancestor take the estate to the exclusion of those who claim under an ancestor more remote. Moore against Scott. Appeal from Huf- falo county. Alllrmed. Opinion by Com missioner Irvine. One who hns nn Inducement to n Bile of land In good faith states to the vendee that reliable third persons had represented the land to him ns being of a certain char acter , and who at the same time states that he has no personal knowledge In re gard to the land , does not thereby adopt such , reprcsentntlons as his own , and re- clsslon cannot be had merely because they prove false. 2. The statement that such third persons are reliable , being merely the expression of an opinion , Is Insulllclcnt to charge the vendor In an action to rescind , at least where ho honestly believed them re liable when the statement was made. 3. The jurisdiction of equity to relieve against mistakes Is In general confined to cases where , because of such mistake , the minds of the parties never met , and there was therefore no contract , and to cases where the contract made was not correctly expressed by the 'Instrument evidencing It. Relief cannot be given because of mis apprehensions In regard to a collateral mat ter , ns In regard to a fact Incidentally affecting1 the value of the subject matter of the contract , there being no deception of wrongful concealment.

AVhcro there Is such an omission to Instruct but It Is clear that the Jury hns lormcii me rignt conclusion mm no preju dice has resulted from the omission It Is not error' which calls for a reversal of the judgment. 4. An Instruction In this , a prosecution for the crime of robbery , was objected to by counsel on the ground that the In struction wns erroneous In that It sub mitted to the Jury the question of whether the accused 'either alone or In company with others" committed the acts alleged In the complaint , for the reason that there was no evidence that the defendant acted alone nt any time or without the cooperation ation of others lu the matters charged.
