The COURTS.

In the Fourth District Court, Judg,
| Theard delivered the following opinion Il
the suit waged by Race, Foster & MerricI
against Emile LaHache for rent, in thu
course of which three pianos shipped or
consignment by the St. Louis Piano Com
panv were seized. ts
Held by the court:
The only question presented herein fol
adjudication is whether the three pianos
seized by plaintiffs for rent Of their store,
due by Emile LaHache, the lessee, came
under the exemption of goods which are
transiently on the premises leased. C. c.,
1913 (Ray's, 2708). -.-
The pianos belong to the intervenors.
They were sent to LaHache to be sold on
commission, upon his representation that
he could speedily sell them, as he had GUS
toners for them.
These facts are not disputed; as to the
law applicable to them it seems to me clear.
l believe that from reasons of CONNER
cial necessity the construction of the word
transiently and the illustration given in the
article of the code must be broad and lib
eral to meet the requirements of great
trading centres.
Goods for sale on commission are intended
for ~ prompt sale as those in an auction
house. 1t is often the case that they are
sold much sooner. 1t is expected and in
tended that they are to be sold promptly.
1t is ruin. in most cases, to the consignor
no manner the destination of goods for sale
on commission to serve for the use of the
lessee. They are there temporarily. In
deed, the doctrine of making commission
goods liable for the lessons privilege would
most disastrously affect our already over
burdened commerce.
believe, therefore, that neither under
the strict letter of the law, TOR in equity,
has the landlord any privilege on commits
sion goods.
Let there be judgment accordingly.
brought by William Kirsch, in the Fourth
District Court, for the value of twenty-six
barrels of sour krout amounting to $500.
In the Sixth District Court prayer for q
respite from the prosecutions of creditors
was filed by a cOffeehOuse keeper, and the
suit of Matthew L. Block was filed against
Bonnet, for $4,000 damages. The facts
complained of are, however, familiar to the
public, and consist Of legal fight over the
possession of house whereof the ideas Of
the owner himself wers not clear as to the
proprietary interest in it.
The application Of c. H. MOutOn e. Co.,
agents Of Daniel John Reid and Erratte
MoutOn, for mandamus on the Treasurer,
commanding the payment of warrant for
salary in each case as judgment was filed.
1t is Of the same order Of suits for salary
filed previously by Louis Duvigneaud and
w. L. McMillen.
The refusal of the Auditor to issue war
rants to the Board of State Assessors, who,
under the new law, receive five per cent Of
the State tax collected, will be recOllected.
The refusal was based upon the fact that
the present board would draw out the
whole fund devoted to that purpose. A
was the upshot, commanding the
Auditor to warrant for $lO2, ,97S IS, and the
writ was yesterday made peremptory by
The court

District Court, Judge Durell, will COM

barrel the cap missed fire, and having no other
ammunition ut hand he instantly removed the
useless cap and ran forward TO despatch the

CORRECTION AGAIN.-Nr. Hamilton in your

never denied that Rev. Bartcl> went to Lincoln
county last April. nor that lac formed Lincoln
circuit. or employed any one TO take charge Of
it. Neither do deny that Mr.. Medcraft
preached there, fer he is a man that will not be
idle in his Masters Vineyard, " but We deny
that lie agreed to travel and labor inthe Lincoln
circuit or that there was any such circuit until
Mr.. Boynton's visit. Mr.. Hamilton throws
the blame " the Injustice done TO all parties on
your paper. and consequently upon Mr.. Boyn-
ton for suppose it was from him you learned
the facts in 1.-THE case. Now Messrs Editors.

anything in regard to Methodism around Salina,
unless You consult Mr.. o. l.. Hamilton. as you
don't know the true state Of the matter.

The county commissioners met at the court
house on Monday. continuing their session un-
til the next evening. The chief matter for their
consideration was the approval of the addition
al security recently required by them Of Mr..
Amrine As treasurer Of the COUNTY. The COM
missioners with the exception Of one united in
declaring the additional bond sufficient one
and an order was made that the books, Key and
funds he turned over to the treasurer. which
was done. Another order was made that the
ease now in the Supreme Court against Mr..
Amrine be discontinued. Mr.. Amrinc has been
bitterly opposed in his efforts to get up bond
but has succeeded beyond the :thticipation> OF
many persons. The commissioners have acted
Justly and impartiaily in this matter and the
people generally are well satisfied with all the
orders they made at their late session.
