Lacey VS.. Woodward, ct al, :
l. In an action of ejectment
from a mine, an error Of the
court in permitting plaintiff to
state his opinion as to the
damage he suffered in conse
quence of its detention by de-
fendant, is cured by subse
quent ruling that the only dam
age plaintiff was entitled to
was the value of the rents and
profits from the commence
ment of the action to the time
of the trial, as provided by the
New Mexico Statutes. 2. 1t
is discretionary with the trial
court to permit witness for
plaintiff to be recalled, even
after the closed defendant S
case, and asked a question
which had been overlooked on
the direct examination. 3. The
fact that a mining location has
failed for one year to perform
the annual labor required by
Act of Congress of May 10,
1872, does not work a forfeit
ure OF the claim, where he in
good faith resumes the wotk
before new location is made
by others. q. Where there is
a substantial conflict in evi-
dence, the verdict Of the jury
will not be disturbed, unless
error of law occurred on the
trial.

Suit ut Sioux Falls,
Sioux FALLS, Jan. 10.-Speeial: The
great case of the Western Uunion Tele-
graph company against Il. j. Mannix, OF
this city. is ended, and Mr.. ManniX is
acquitted. Never in the history of this
city, or probably In the northwest, has a
case been fought inch by inch as has
this. Mr.. Mannix was prominent citi-
zen and much interest conferred In the
case. The evidence was all 10 on Thurs
day night and Friday was devoted to
counsels' pleading to jury. The pleas OF
Judge Garland and Attorney Winston,
for the defense, were simply superb.
Not point was overlooked. and during
their pleas it could be seen that
the jury was affected. During Attorney
Winsor's plea there was many hand
kerehIef used, by both audience and
jury. ID. r. Bailey, states attorney, in
closing for the state, tried very hard to
stem the tide which was flowing In the
interest Of the defendant, but it was
sslovess labor lost" The case went to
the jury at o'clock and before they
returned with verdict OF acquittal.
Last evening Mr.. Mannix was congratu-
lated ON all sides. The verdict was very
pcpular among this community. Mr..
MaRnix was asked by your correspondent
whAGher he would commence actioH
against the Western Union company for
damages, and he replied that he was not
prepared to say. but the prevailing opin-
ion Is that he will.

joyment, to others life is a burden. To

with tired, languid feeling, life is in
deed burdensome. This is the result OF
a torpid liver, inactive condition of the
