BELLEvUE. KY.-In the Mayors
Court, on Saturday evening, the iad.
journed case OF Hahn & Trapp, charged
with the obstruction Of Fairfield avenue,
came up for hearing before his Honor,
Mayor Harms. On the case being called
up, Mr.. Ducker, the defendants LAWYER.
applied for a Jury trial, otherwise q
change Of venue. After some argument,
1t WAS decided to have Jury. se the
Marshal and his deputy had to exert
themselves TO hunt Hp twelve good men,
which they got. But just when the re.
quired number had been obtained and
all was rea1y to proceed, the Mayor an
n0uncea the case dismissed, the defend
ants agreeing to gravel the road and
leave 1t In a passable condition. Thus
ends the great lawsuit.
There seems TO be great dissatisfac.
tion over the paying of dog taxes this
year. The taxes were due ON the first
Monday OF August, and US but a few par
ties had paid up at that time, d humber
OF subpGnas were issued and the par.
ties brought before the Mayor. He de.
eided to settle all the eases provided the
parties paid 81 % for each dog, and said
he would give until Tuesday night, 18th
inst, Tor all parties to pay up, and any
person keeping q dog alter this date
with taxea unpaid will be liable to q fine
Of s.. After this announcement was
made there was . rush for the Marahal'a
dseh, and It was with diliculsy that the
e&ctal could receive the money % fast
as u was handed in. As ie generally the
ltsAsss everybody paid itwih grudge,

HIS WEIGHT.

We print the following for the BEN
eft of cur dealers in ready made
clothing. They may have occasion
to thank us for the timely warning:
A stranger with no guile in his
face, wandered into a clothing store
in Newport, the other day, and asked
if he could be fitted with a spring
overcoat. The proprietor answered
in the affirmative. "You speak very
positively" replied the stranger.
Il am bigger than you take me for"
The store keeper was still confident
that he had coats that would answer.
~ am a pretty heavy man." said the
stranger; ~ will bet you five dollars
that you can't guess my weight with
in hundred pounds" The man was
not particular large, and this astound-
ing challenge diverted the seller Of
clothing from the ordinary course Of
his business. lie took the wager,
named his guess--about 100 pounds
the money was put up in the hands
Of third party, and all started off
for pair Of scales, and the stranger
balanced 800 pounds Of weights.
The store man looked sad and puz-
zlad. With a smile that was child
like, the stranger took his money
and walked off without saying any
thing about the overcoat. It has
since been learned that this man
wears a lead jacket, and has been
making an honest living by playing
his scurgy trick on unsuspecting
dealers in clothing. He came from
Connecticut.
