Father Parrault in Trouble.

A special dispatch from Dickinson to
the Minneapolis Tribune says: This
city is startled by a warrant being sworn
out charging Father Perrault, Catholic
priest of this charge, with grand larceny.
The news has been suppressed by the
local press on account of the prominent
people involved. The story is as follows:
Last summer Father Brennan was dis
charged from the priesthood by Bishop
Stanley. The cause of the action was
the too free use of Intoxicating liquors
by Father Brennan. Since that time
Father Perrault, who resides at Mandan,
has filled the Dickinson appointment.
During Father Brennan's reign, a man
by the name Of Conavan gave him a
stove, or it is claimed by Perrault and
his friends, that Canavan gave the stove
to Brennan, although Caravan says he
only lent it to him. When Brennan was
discharged, all property belonging to
him was taken by Bishop Stanley.
He turned the same over to Per-
rault. Caravan charges Perrault
with secreting the stove and swore
out a search warrant which was placed
in the hands of the night-watch who,
with Caravan and a drayman, are
claimed to have been seen at the priests
house. When Perrault went to the
house last week the stove was gone,
lamp broke, oil all over the brussels car
pet, and other articles broke and miss
ing. A warrant was sworn out by Cana
van, but has not yet been served. Father
Perrault claims States Attorney Bates
is against him and will not assist him i n
bringing Caravan to justice for taking
the stove and breaking other furniture.
He will solicit the aid of Judge Winches-
ter. Other charges have been brought
against Father Perrault by enemies in
this city and Mandan, but Bishop Shan
ley has always exonerated him, knowing
the personal enmity which exists. The
courts will settle this last difficulty and
the whole trouble will probably be in
Vestigated.

cross. examination Huber said he talked
with the other witnesses, that is the
other men who we're by the stacks. lie
said he was mad and O'Connor was mad
but he swore he didn't strike him, if he
had, he would have dropped Oh the
ground. He knew O'Connor was under
bonds to keep the peace.
John Melander was sworn. He said
he went down to Huber's farm too on
Sunday and saw some horses in some
corn. Huber said the horses were eat
ing up his corn. He saw O'Conpor with
q gun on his shoulder. He saw O'Con-
nor and Huber together but didn't see
either s1rike the other. Huber wanted
OConnor to go and see what damage the
horses had done to his corr but O'Con-
nor wouldn't go. On cross-examination
he said O'Connor and Huber were not
down there together more than 10
minutes. He SAID there were some
bushes and small trees between where
they we're and where he was. He said
he looked at them all the time. He
heard O'Connor tell Huber that HE
would be sorry for it." He didn't know
what he would be sorry for. On re-
direct examination he said he didn't
watch them very close. He said he
didn't want to watch very close.
Mr.. Olof Swanson was sworn. He
went down to Huber's farm on Sunday
about 7 o'clock in the morning with Me-
lander and Huber. He saw the horses
in the cornfeld. Huber told him to drive
faster so he could get one of the horses.
He heard part of the conversation be-
tween Huber and O'Connor. He thought
the distance was not more than thirty
rods. He was on top of the hay stack
and see all. He heard O'Connor want
to shake hands with Huber, but Huber
wouldn't do it. Huber wanted to 90
and see what damage the horses had
done to the corn. On cross-examination
he said he was on a hay stack about
seven feet high. He wanted to see what
Huber and O'Connor we're doing. He
said Huber would not have struck
O'Connor without his seeing it. He
heard O'Connor say he would pay HUI
Der for the damage to his corn. He said
he would swear Huber did not strike
O'Connor. That ended the case. Mr..
Register summed up the case briefly.
Mr.. Boucher was also brief in sum-
ming up the case for the defense and
asked that the defendant be discharged.
The court thought it might have been
the case that Mr.. Huber might
have hit Mr.. O'Connor, but on the testi-
mony of the Two outside witnesses he
would discharge the defendant, but
would not assess the costs to the plain
tiff. Mr.. O'Connor made a statement
that he wop .ay the costs of a survey
and have the ground surveyed and the
bushes examined. The states attorney
said there had been considerable bad
blood between the two parties here IN
court, and if there is any more trouble,
some one will get the worst of it.
The judge said if there was any more

Supreme Court Matters,

Three cases were docketed yesterday
with the clerk of the supreme court, to
come up for argument at the January
term in Fargo. Gaar, Scott & Co. VS..
S%paulding is appealed from Cass county
and is an action for conversion of a
threshing outfit. Spaulding purchased
the subject matter of the controversy at
chattel mortgage sale and the plaintiffs
claim a property in the same through q
prior recorded mortgage.
VIM. Ell VS.. the Northern Pacific road
has before been in the supreme court
and is an action for damages resulting
from an injury to the plaintiffs person
some time ago in the Jamestown yards
The former decision was adverse to Ell
and the case was remanded for a new
trial. After the record was sent down
to the court below, s. L. Glaspell, coun.
sci for Ell, moved to dismiss the action
without prejudice to a second suit, which
motion Judge Rose granted and from the
order the company excepted and ap.
pealed. Thereafter the company with.
drew it's notice Of appeal, but neverthe.
less the record is up and will come on
for hearing on some point or other.
Jasper vs.. Hazen, from Cass county, is
another old friend to the judges of the
supreme court, having been twice ar
gued before. This time it comes up on
appeal from an order of Judge McCon-
nell refusing to sustain a demurrer to
the complaint, which is alleged to con-
tain several causes of action improperly

Larimore Pioneer: From the state
ments of individuals who are acquainted
with circumstances it is evident that
some farmers are making the same mis-

wheat. They are going in too deep.
Many cases could be cited, where small
focks having been found profitable, the
owners have increased them by purchase
at high figures until the focks are so
large that proper feed and shelter cannot
be provided for them during the winter.

duct his case he must engage in some
other pastime while in court. States
Attorney Register was pretty we'll
worked up over the case, but the charge
had been made and he felt it his duty to
investigate. However, he said Huber

county over 5000 and he proposes to
stop it if he has to keep one man in jail
and the other under bonds to keep away
from the iail.

MT. O'Connor and Gottleib Huber
Have a Hearing in Justice
Court.
Huber is Charged With Assault
and Battery, But is Dis
charged.
Three Cases Docketed With the Su-
preme Court, to be Argued at
January Term.
Justice Court,
From Wednesdays Daily.1

From Wednesdays Daily
Two criminal cases we're brought in
Justice court yesterday. The first one
was a case of assault and battery brought
by N. T. O'Connor against Gottleib HUI
her. Mr.. Huber engaged Attorney
Boucher, who consulted his client and in
his behalf plead not guilty. Mr.. O'Con-
nortwas sworn and said that last Sunday
morning he went onto Huber's farm to
get some horses that had gone over onto
tHuber's farm. Huber came running
down and passed him. He spoke to him
(Huber), who said he wanted to get some
of the horses and hold them for ~trespass.
A few words followed and O'Connor said
Huber hit him. O'Connor had a gun on
his shoulder, but kept his temper, al
though Huber hit him twice. On cross
examination O'Connor said the trouble
occurred about 9 o'clock in the morning,
about 80 rods from Huber's house. He
said the first blow did not knock him
down, but it hurt his feelings and his
person, as he is under bonds to keep the
peace and could not resent Huber's
blows. The second blow did not hurt
him, but it hurt his feelings. He said
Huber said he would kill him and some
of his horses. Huber said he wanted
him to keep his horses at home. He said
there was no one else present, but he saw
two men afterwards zeal some stacks.
On cross examination O'Connor said that
there was tall grass and willows between
where the trouble occurred and where
the two men were. The state then rest
Led.
Gotleib Huber was sworn in his W
behalf and told his story about as fol-
lows. He with some other mon went
out to his farm last Sunday and he saw
some horses on his farm and he tried to
get some of the horses. He said O'Con-
nor's horses had damaged his corn and
he had previously told him to keep his
horses off and to keep himself off his
farm. He said the other two men were
where they could see what occurred. He
sasnied striking O'Connor in any way. He
said O'Connor asked him why he didn't
strike him, as he knew how much it cost
him before when he struck him. On
