THE CIRCUIT COURT.
The September term of the circuit court closes to-day. The jury was discharged yesterday morning for the term. Following is some of the more important matters disposed of since our last report; State vs. Fred Wilkins, charged with burglarizing a saloon at Kniman several months ago and who has since been lying in jail here awaiting trial; found guilty and fined 15 and sentenced to sixty days in jail. State vs. Joseph E. Francis, charged with shooting with intent to kill Miss Bessie Umfrees recently, mention of which was made in The Democrat at the time of the occurrence ; found guilty of assault only, fined 110, but costs remitted. State vs. Mattie Morlan, charged with keeping house of ill fame in the northwest part of Rensselaer; found guilty and fined $lO and costs. In default of payment of fine and costs she was sent to jail. In the case of Perry Liston vs. Judy & Wood for a settlement, etc., the jury found that he was still indebted to said firm and that they were entitled to a foreclosure of their mortgage. The rape case from Kersey was continued for the term on affidavit of defendant that it was impossible to secure the presence of certain witnesses at this time. In the case of R. T. Dobbins vs. J. A. May for the possession of forty acres of land near Wolcott, a case venued here from White county, a verdict was rendered in favor of Dobbins. This case has been tried twice before in White county and May won out each time, we understand. It is likely there will be further litigation over it. Neoma J. Haste was granted a divorce from her husband, David C. Haste, the custody of their child and S2OO alimony, to b 9 paid SSO Jan. 1, 1905, and SSO each three months thereafter until all is paid. In the case of Hammond vs, Bedford, wherein the latter was sued for damages connected with the sale of the bnsine6s house occupied by the short order restaurant, the jury failed to agree. The Baker road case will be appealed to the supreme court, we understand,
HIGH-DIVER HURT.
The high-diver over at the Monticello corn show Tuesday met with a probably fatal accident on his first attempt to dive from the top of the court house there. He was to land in a net, but the net was not strong enough and he went right through it, striking the cement walk with great forc e. He was picked up in a bleeding and bruised condition and taken to the hotel, where he still remains in a precarious condition. He is partially paralyzed and his recovery is doubtful. The height he dove from was about 95 feet. Some straw had been placed under the net which partially broke the force of the fall, otherwise he would have been instantly killed.

FARMING IN WASHINGTON.
W. D. Bringle of Jordan tp. returned last Friday from his trip to Anatone, Wash. Mr. Bringle was gone from here twenty-four days and was over considerable territory rn that section of the country. Everything there is done pn a big scale. His uncle, Mr. Benjamin Flock, whom he visited most of the time, was 34 days cutting his wheat, and they averaged 31| acres per day. He used a header and thresher combined, a machine that cuts the wheat and threshes at the same time. Thirty’ horses furnished the motive power for this particular machine, and five men were required to manipulate it. Then, of course, there were the haulers to take the filled sacks from the field (all grain is sacked) the water hauers, grub wagon, etc. Mr. Bringle saw’ one of these machines working that cut a swath 35 feet wide and was driven by a fifi horse power engine. The farmer there furnishes no hands in in cutting and threshing, the thresher furnhising everything. Mr. Bringle thinks it is a great country, but he dosen’t like the numerous canyons. Fruit of all kinds is grown there in abundance and is the finest in the world. Wheat this year yielded from 30 to 50 bushels per acre. Barley is also a great producing crop in that country. Grain, of course, brings a much smaller price there than here, owing to the long distance from market.
ELEGANT NEW TRAINS ON THE WABASH.
Mr. C. S. Crane, general passenger and ticket agent of the Wabash system, announces on and after Oct. 2. that the magnificent Wabash “Banner Blue Limited” between Chicago and St. Louis will make the run between the two cities in the remarkably fast time of seven hours.

Spent More Then SIOOO. W. W. Baker of Piainview. Neb., writes: "My wife suffered with lung trouble for fifteen years. She tried a number of doctors and spent over SIOOO without any relief. She became very low and lost all hope. A friend recommended Foley's Honey and Tar and thanks to this great remedy it saved her life. She enjoys better health than she has known in ten years."
