Court Items.

1t would seem that there was error in
the statement made yesterday that iniunc-
tions were applied for and refused in the
their license tax. Under general instruc-
tons from the Auditor. the tax collectors
are suing for all unpaid licenses. The suits
are made out and sent to Judge Dibble,
the Assistant Attorney General. 1t seems
that in these cases against lawyers he
struck out all claims for costs, fees and
charges, and so much of the petitions as
asked for injunctions. He could not have
done more; he had no right to do less.

ONLY HOwLING CAT.-Recently Buffalo
Bill possessed cat as is cat all over, and
he was sadly grieved when informed that
some one had stolen it. William soon
learned all about the case, and caused the
arrest OF the man. The case was before
Judge Macarthur, whe dismissed the case,
declaring cats not property; therefore nc
larceny had been committed. Some people
do not look at the case that way.
