Two Cases in District Court. Another suit has been brought in district court to have one of the gas leases held by the Langon Zinc Company set aside. This time Mrs. Anne McDonald, living on a 160-acre farm north of LaHarpe, is the plaintiff. The main contention seems to be that she signed the lease without her husband, Allan McDonald, or her children joining. William Paske, of Moran, sues Joshua Rumble of the same place for judgment on a note given June 4, 1900, for $467.72, with ten per cent interest. The petition alleges that Rumble gave the note to L. B. Kinne, receiver of the defunct Moran Bank in payment of money owed by him to the bank. Kinne sold the note to George A. Bowlus, who in turn sold it to Paske.

# Two Injunctions Granted. At the request of the interested parties Probate Judge Smith granted two restraining orders to prevent the sheriff selling certain farms as he has advertised to do. One case is the suit of Hannah Rumble against Wm. Paske and the sheriff. It seems that Paskel was given judgment in district court May 21, 1901, against Joshua Rumble for $521. An attachment was issued and the sheriff advertised to sell the northeast quarter of 23-23-20 to satisfy the judgment. Now Mrs. Rumble interferes and says say she owns the land and has owned it long before the judgment was rendered. The other is a similar case. This Time C. A. Japhet is the plaintiff and he sues to restrain the sheriff from selling the north-east quarter of 12-24-20, which was attached under judgment rendered in favor of L. B. Kinne, receiver of the defunct Moran Bank, against J. H. Ross, and later assigned by Kinne to Wm. Paske, N. Burnehan, and E. A Brown. The judgment was for $2,000, with trimmings and was rendered November 17, 1900. Japhet says he has been the owner long enough to make the attachment no good.
