WHAT A BLACK AM TAN CAs Do.-in
the District Court to-day, was sxem-
p,iaed what trouble, annoyance and ILL
feeling a little black and tan slut may
cause. Some six months since Mrs.
Mary Hay lost her dog. She obtained
information to tho effect that John
Kincsman had II. Immediately she
biei herself to the Kingsman mansion
and claimed tho animal. Possession
was refused until the woman proved her
right to tho slut. She then trottod to
the Justices Court and swore out q CON-
plant for the arrest Of kingsman on a
charge Of petit larceny. The Ease was
tried by n jury and the defendant con.
yicted. An appeal was then taken and
tho case tried de noro in tho District
Court by another Jury. From the tes-
timony il appeared that q gentleman
loaned the slut to Mr.. Perry. who in
turn, cave Il to Mrs. Hay. A woman
stole II from her and gave 1t to MI.
kramer, who in his turn, gave 1t to MIR.
Einesman. The original swner swore
that he only loaned the dog and that
Perry had no right to give II away. The
facts being that Kingsman came BY the
animal innocently and that Mrs. Hay
htd no right whatever TO II, the jury by
| erection u the court. found n verdict
Tor tho defendant, and no was dis
charged. 1t requires only q little think

J,nss this thing has occasioned both to
