der cloud and his whereabouts are I'M
known, even to his wife. SO she claims.
Several weeks ago Mr.. Lennon drew his
personal check for 500 on a bank where
The had no deposits and Lienneman d
Schmidt cashed it for him. The check
was returned and trouble for Lennon was
threatened, so he gave his note for the
amount with / u per cent. per month in
terest.

man, justice of the peace for South Butte,
and being past due, suit was brought on
1T to-day by Linnemann & Schmidt

friends.
Another action on the note instituted
to-day was by the First National bank

and suit was brought and went to judg-
ment by default some time ago, and the
judgment also remained unpaid, and to-
day suit was brought against the three
stockholders and officers of the concern.
Constable L. j. Bordeaux in an action
commenced against j. f. Doud, justice of
the peace in Meaderville, complained that
some time ago he took possession of o
wagon under attachment, and before the
case was brought to trial suit was begun
in Justice Doud's court to recover posses
sion of the property, and the justice gave
judgment against the constable. The lat
ter to-day secured an injunction from
Judge Mediation restraining Doud and
his officers from proceeding any further
in the case until the original suit is tried
and determined.
