The Harvest Festival at the Presby­terian church drew a large crowd last Sunday evening. Extra cbairs had been provided and at best the church would not afford Standing room. A good programme was provided and the several departments did fair justice to their part of the programme.

THE COURT CALENDAR.

The Circuit Court has been in Session for two weeks, and during that time a large number of cases have been disposed of, so that it is stated that the calendar has been more nearly cleared up than ever before. A few cases, of course, were continued; but these were generally such as Judge Aikens had been formerly interested, in, and hence could not properly be tried before him.

The following is a list of the more important cases that were disposed of by the court:

State of South Dakota v. Aaron B. Jones, indicted for selling liquor un­lawfully, was dismissed by the state's attorney, oh the ground that the defend­ant had "skipped the country." The

case of perjury against the same defend­ant was continued.

State of South Dakota v. Bartlett Minot, indicted for selling mortgaged property, was dismissed upon a motion to set aside the indictment for not suf­ficiently charging a public offense. The defendant however, was not discharged; but the case \vas held to be submitted to the next, grand jury to find a new indictment. 3 ; State of South Dakota v. Frank Pelton, three indictments for grand and petit larceny, were continued until the next term of court. t'

Slate of South Dakota vs. Andreas Handscheigle, indictments for selling intoxicating liquars unlawfully, were all disposed of at this term. One of the^ Cases was called for trial on Friday las£ and the entire day was consumed in its hearing. Late in the evening the jury returned a verdict of not guilty, and the next day the state's attorney moved' to dismiss the remainder of these cases against Handscheingle, which was granted by the court. Thus it will be seen, that "Old Hans," as he is fimiliar-ly known, has no charges standing against him in this court, and in the future it will be unnecessary for him to visit the neighboring states during its sessions. This hero of many law-suits has removed upon his farm and is now pursuing the peaceful occupation of farming, and in this it is to be hoped h'j may remain.

State of South Dakota v. Frank Rodway, indicted for selling liquor un­lawfully, was continued. It seems that this defendant went off on a visit shortly before the convening of court, and forgot to return as he had agreed, a defect of memory that the court is not apt to excuse, if he ever should come back,

State of South Dakota vs. William W. Lyon, indictment for rape, occupied several days of the court in its trial. The evidence was of such a character that the jury felt warranted, after being out nearly one whole day, in returning a verdict of guilty of rape in the second degree. On Monday the prisoner was sentenced to imprisonment in the .penitentiary for a term of twenty years, which by good behavior he can reduce to fifteen years. This is a severe sen­tence, but not more so than the nature of this offense warranted. On Wednes­day he was taken by the sheriff to. Sioux Falls where he is now serving out his sentence. The prisoner's attorneys have made a motion in arrest of judg­ment and for a new trial which will be argued before the Supreme,Court some­time next May, when they hope to get the prisoner released. i "

State of South Dakota v. Austin Olson, indictment for mayhem in biting off an-others man's thumb, was continued un­til the next term of court.

CIVIL CALANDER. " :

The civil cases disposed of were as follows:

St Croix Lumber Co., v. M. L. Syverud was settled and dismissed.' ' ' _

C. B. Kennedy vs. Canton City School District, a claim for attorney's fees, the jury rendered a verdict, against the plain­tiff.

William Ellis vs. W. S. Wait and Lucy Wait, action to foreclose a mortgage where the defendants claimed that the mortgage was materially altered after they had signed the same, the jury re­turned a verdict in favor of the defend­ants

T. R. Nickerson v. C. A. Bedford, judgment by agreement for plaintiff.

Iver Anderson vs. R. A. Pierce was continued.

C. B. Kennedy vs. L. M. Hartley, ver­dict for the plaintiff for $36.00.

Geo. M. Brown vs. M. F. Davis was continued by consent until the next term of the court, with a view to settlement.

T. J. Shay vs. Frazeir. Gelman, the jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff.

M. E. Rudolph vs, M. H. Herman, claim for rent, the court overrruled the demurrer of the plaintiff to apart of de­fendants answer. %

M. H. Hastings vs. Joseph Willit action to foreclose mortgage, was settled.

John W-Steel vs. Jesse M.'-Kerr.^^lp-peai from justice of the Peace on ques­tion of law. The judgment of the justice was reversed and the case remanded for further proceedings according to law.

This case involved the right of the parties in a jury treat before a justice to exercise what are known as peremptory challenges after the jury is in the jury box. The circuit court holds that the right exists and that it is error for a

justice to refuse parties that right. Carl Guster Jonson vs. Phillip New

man and Thos. Thorson, suit to foreclose a mortgage upon land. Judgment by agreement for $500.00, and mortgage to be foreclosed if not 'paid by January 1st, 1892.

Peter Dyste v. Alice Warner and J. A. Warner, Decree of foreclosure granted.

C. M. & St. P. Ry. Co. vs. O. A. Rudolph, suit for specific perform&noa was coutinued until the next term of court.

Edwin L. Maqwell vs. j. H. Gale and C. B. Kennedy, was settled.

Next in order of program was af on the subject, The First Day in a Country School,, "by Supt. Lund. His remarks were' of especial value to young teachers. * '

Should the teacher follow the many helpful suggestions that were given in regard to preliminary arrangements for a term of school, and the order of work for the "first day," she would certainly meet with success in the beginning, which is of the utmost importance, as a creditable entering upon work, usually results in successful work through out the term.

Prof. Tuve made a few remarks rat­ing to the same subject, whicl] also much appreciated by the This was followed by a recitj very ably rendered by C. F. After an intermission of a few minutes, during which a very social time was en­joyed, Mrs. F. F. Wilson, read paper on -English Grammar. The mistakes some­times made in presenting and teaching this branch of study, were mentioned, as was also some practical methods by which it may be effectively taught. '

A recitation by Miss Hannah Nortvedt concluded the exercises. 4 „ ^
