Items of Interest Picked Up In and
Around the Temple of Justice.
This morning, in Court Room No. 2,
Judge Raley refused to allow a petition
In error to be filed in the case of Hunt
ington vs.. McMath, heretofore tried
before Justice Wettach. At the same
time the Court dissolved the injunction
granted in the case of McMath VS..
Huntington. Both cases involved the
same question, whether the justice had
Jurisdiction in an action of forcible
entry and detainer where forfeiture
was claimed because of non-payment of
rent. The Court held: First, that it
could not review the testimony given
before the justice. Second, that the
Justice did have jurisdiction. This in
effect makes the judgment below bind
ihg in favor of Mrs. Huntington.
The case of Lucy Eckroat VS.. Frank
Millhoff, the Court sustained the de-
INJURED on the ground that an agent
could not sue in his own name.
The case of the Water Works Trus-
tees of Canton VS.. Henry Winefeldt, the
demurrer was sustained.

Yutz VS.. Juliard was argued this morn
ing by Baldwin for plaintiff and Lahm
for the defendant. 1t is a case that
was brought to correct mortgage and
declare priority of heir.
Case 5O36, Stanley VS.. Colbert, is
being tried by jury. Stanley keeps a
livery stable in Alliance and hired It
horse and buggy to Mrs. Colbert some
time during the summer of 1885. The
horse took fright and ran away thereby
breaking the buggy. Mr.. Stanley had
the buggy repaired, which cost him
about $35, and he now sues the defend
ant for the cost of such repairs.
The testimony in the case OF Stanley
VS. Colbert, full account of which az

PROBATE COURT.
The criminal term of Probate court
will be held next week by Judge Faw'
cett, providing one of the Common
Pleas court rooms can be secured. 1t
was to have taken place two weeks ago
but was postponed because of no place
to hold it. Since the court house has
been remodeled so as to make two Com
mon Pleas court rooms out of it, there
has been no place to hold the Probate
court, and they are obliged to take
their chances on securing a room.
