Knotts, and the balance of the Oaryites who were indicted by the last grand Jury for various acts committed on election day, will probably not come up this term of court The delay is caused by the fact that Senator Frank has been retained as Knotts’ attorney, and the senator will be busy in the legislature until court adjourns. “Dog Face Charley,” charged with rioting has been in Jail for several weeks, awaiting trial and his case may be called early in the term.—<7rown Point Star. Nell Brown says their large acreage of wheat, sown last fall on the Kankakee ranch, looks well, notwithstanding the freezing and thawing and no covering of snow. Many have felt suspicious that the wheat crop would be killed or crippled on account of no snow, and should such a thing happen, it would be a great downfall to Lake county, as thousands of acres were sown when it was known of tin large yield last season and the price it brought the producers per a<*e. A few such crops will pay for a farm, at the present high prices of farm lands. —Crown Point Star.
