jury in the district court yesterday
brought in verdict of $3.50 and interest
Bottles for cutting what is known as dead
jack pine trees on a section of the public
school lands near BraiEerd in 1888. The
trespass was clearly proven against the par
ties, Bottles having decamped for parts I'M
unknown and left Jackson to take the con-
sequences of the trespass. 1t would appear
that the defendants were in the wood bust
ness, on the theory that wherever they could
find any dead standing clumps of jack pine
on either peronal or public property that they
had right to eonfscate it for their own use.
