CIRCUIT COURT.
The following is the court record for to-
day, it being understood that at the time
of adjournment, at noon, the case of Whit
ney VS. the city of Rock Island was still on
trial, with no prospect of being finished
before Monday evening or Tuesday fore
noon of next week Judge Smith, at $50
remarked that If he were to keep the jury
here this afternoon he thought the case
might be finished By this evening. but in
recognition of the fact that many OF the
Jurors were farmers who wanted to go
home 10 look after their stock in such
stormy weather as we are experiencing
now, he would not attempt TO rush the
case through. He asked the jurors if there
were any who couldn't get home to-day
if an afternoon session were held, and
three or four spoke up in the affirmative.
The judge then remarked that in his
opinion it wouldn't be fair to defer ad-
journment beyond the noon hour; TOO
many people seem to regard lurymen ike
livery horses. they have no souls.
