CIRCUIT COURT PROCEEDINGS.
The Criminal Docket convictions and Pen
alties.

When the Court at the beginning of the
May term, in the charge to the grand jury,
said that the absence of crime was matter
OF congratulation, it seems that the court was
not cognizant of what had been going on in
the county. There was nothing in or near
the county seat, Of serious criminal nature,
and but few of the cases unearihed by the
grand jury were known out of the neighbOr-
hoods where they happened.
The offences brought to light, however, by
the grand inquest, showed state of moral
depravity not at all creditable to the COM
munity. The indictments and convictions,
it is hoped, will have a salutary effect.
The term has been q long one, and will
probably last until the middle Of next week.
1t has been busy term and large number
of cases have been disposed of.
When our report Of proceedings closed last
week, the case of the State against Reuben
f. Bittle, was on trial. Bittle was charged
with an attempt to poison Ida S. Angel, near
Copperville, Taneytown district, by giving
her pill to take, containing Paris green and
copperas. The case was an ugly one, and
was tried before the Court. Bttle was ad
Judged guilty and sentenced to four years in
the penitentary. Fink for the State; Hen
ming for Bittle.
The next case was that of the State VS..
David Boose and George HUFF, for obtaining
money under false pretenses. The parties
live in Myers district, and the evidence
showed some transactions worthy of green
goods dealers. The accused were tried before
the Court and convicted. Boose was sen
fenced to Imprisonment in the county jail
for one year and to pay fine Of $500 and costs
Huff was sentenced to one year in jail and to
pay $50 fine and costs. Fink and Bond for
the State; Reifsnider & Reifsnider and Hen
ming for the defense.
In the case of the State VS.. George W..
Roop, indicted for assault with intent to kill
Joseph l.. Sharrer, at Keysville. Middleburg
district, the jury rendered verdict Of not
guilty. Fink and Clabaugh for the State;
Weant and Henning for the traverser.
The case OF the State VS.. julius Traub, for
bastardy, drew large attendance on Thurs
day morning of witnesses from Union Bridge
This was an ugly case also, but it did not
come to trial, the States attorney, owing to
some defect in the magistrates docket en-
tries having the indictment quashed. Fink
for the State; Clabaugh Il Roberts for trav.
erser.
After disposing of this case, that of the
State vs. james Welty, charged with carnally
knowing and abusing a female child under
fourteen years ofage, was taken up. The case
comes from Middleburg district. Fink for
the State; Henning for the defense.

Dog Como It, Get Rid of the Dogs.

Mayor Brooks deserves great credit for
what he has done and for what he contem-
plates, but | would respectfully submit that
some measure should be taken to lessen the
member of useless CANNES that swarm West
minister. The tax on dogs should be increas-
ed to $40, and dogs not licensed should be put
out of the way. Licensed dogs should be re-
quired to be muzzled when at large as well
as wear tag. In some parts, if not all, of
Westminster The dogs make sleep at times
wellnigh impossible, and contributing to the
general barking, bowling, frighting and noise
aredogs of high as well as low degree. There
is little if any need for residents of Westmin-
ster to keep dogs, and those who regard
CANNES with high favor should be made to
pay well for the privilege Of maintaining a
nuisance 10 disturb the slumbers Of others.
