A TBIN WALL,
The Owner objects TO Having Another

The Owner objects TO Having Another
story Built On It.
J. ID. Tate has entered suit against F.
w. Fratt in the Superior Court to restrain
him from using the eastern wall OF plain
tiif's building, by building upon it.
The plaintiff states that he has for thir-
teen years past owned the property at 800
street, and also strip of land eight
inches wide along the west side of the ad-
joining lot, and that he and his predeces-
sors have been in exclusive possession of
this land Tor thirty years past; that the
east wall of his building stands upon his
own ground, is part OF a one-story build
ing, and only eight inches in thickness
and about thirty-two feet high.
This wall, plaintiff alleges, is not strong
enough to support the additional weight
OF another story, but that the defendant
is building an additional wall of fourteen
feet in hight upon it, and having OPEN
1ngs for six windows. He further states
that he notified the defendant before he
commenced the construction of the wall
not to build it, and alleges that even if it
were a party wall, the law denies to the
defendant the right to put in it windows
overlooking his, the plaintiffs, building.
lie therefore asks for an Injunction and
$3.50 damages from the defendant.

LAGIBRE Was FLUSH.
He Blew in Most of His Room-Mate's
Hard-Earned Money.
August Sessmott fingered Too Long
at the Brewery, and Subsequently
Slept Too Soundly.

Henri Lagiere was examined before
Judge Buckley in the Police Court yes
terday for having robbed August Sess-
mott of Sl35.
Sessmott testified that week before last.
on Thursday or Friday, he could not re-
member clearly which, he visited a
brewery and drank considerable beer.
The day following he was sick and con-
fined to his room all day. When he was
able to get up he found that S135 had been
taken from under his pillow. He sus-
pected Lagiere, who had been sleeping in
the same room with him, and as soon as
he got out Of bed he went to the police
station and swore to a warrant for La
gieres arrest.
Lagiere was arrested, but released the
next day, as there seemed to be no evil
dence against him. AS soon as he was re-
leased Laglere is said to have boasted Of
having taken The money, and showed a
portion of it, and he was rearrested.
II. Consolation testified that Lagiere
told him that he got Sessmott's money
'all right" and that he voluntarily gave
witness his note for $50, so as to be able to
account for the money he had shown in
case he should be arrested.
Alma Galgani, the l4-year-old daughter
of the proprietor of the Columbo House,
where the robbery occurred, testified that
Lagiere showed her $40 in gold, and
threatened that if she told OF it he would
shoot her.
Galgani, the proprietor of the house,
testified to having gone with Sessmott to
get a warrant for Lagiere's arrest, and
substantiated portions of Sessmott's testi-
mony.
John Catlin was counsel for Lagiere,
and Charles \. Post conducted the ex-
animation for the prosecution. At the
conclusion of the testimony the case was
submitted with very brief statements
from both sides, and Judge Buckley
found sufficient evidence to hold Lagiere

Yet I'm willing to learn. though unable to teach.

As the breezes and bowers in the bright month OF

Sometimes. like December I'm rugged and rough.

When hope has forsaken and perils upspring;
And though fierce blades should menaeingly
