The most important jury case at
this term OF Circuit Court was that
of Christopher vs. Dunn for SIS, 900
damages fer getting a good and
well deserved licking, and being
crippled up pretty badly besides.
The trouble, as we have related in
these columns before, all grew out
Of line fence between John San
ford Dunn and Barney Christopher,
living near ReedsvilIe on adjoining
farms. There is no more peaceful
and better behaved citizen In the
county than Dunn, whereas Chris.
topher is reputed to be quarrelsome
and hard to get along with. He
made life miserable for some time
for Dunn about the line fence be
tween them, and told several par.
ties he would whip him if he ever
got the cfIance, and finally tackled
Dunn with fence stake, but got
badly used up himself, as he claims,
and then, like the baffled bully that
he was, appealed to the law to help
him out, 1t always looks so cow
ardly in anyone pretending TO be a
man, to go out hunting trouble,
and then getting the worst Of it,,
call on the strong arm Of the law
for revenge. In the first place.
Christopher had Dunn arrested and
tried for assault and battery, before
a jury in Justice Godwin's Court
here, who very promptly found him
not guilty. That ought to hive
settled the matter, but it didA't,
for then Christopher sued for dam
ages, which was settled this Court.
His counsel were Messrs. w. G..
Brown and Ii. G. HYDE, while
Dunn's attorneys were =. j. Gro
gan and N. j. Fortney. Saturday
the jury brought in verdict for
$3.50 and costs for Christopher.
How they could possibly figure out
that he was entitled to a cent, we
can't imagine. Being thoroughly
Informed in regard to the whole
matter, we have no hesitation in
saying that he should have had all the
costs to pay and not received cent.
The costs amount to about 5000. IL
will now be IN order hereafter when
a fellow goes out hunting trou BILE
and gets licked. for him to sue the
fellow, who is simply taking his
own part, for damages.

The many friends in this county
OF Hon. Charles Edgar Brown will

office being Presidential one, the

THE KINGwOoD ACADEMY.

| ne annual Com mencement Eek
ercises of the Kinswood Academy
took place last Friday night. The
Chapel room, where the exercises
were held, was crowded to it's ut
most capacity, and even standing
room was at premium. Still the
crowd could not all get in, and
most OF the performers and pupils
remained out in the adjoining room
and hall. The first part of the
program consisted Of performances
given by the pupils OF the Higher
Department, who had. been drilled
In their exercises and selections by
Mrs. }. NJ. Crane. Splendid in
srumental music was rendered by
Mr.. j. NJ. Crane on the violin, &C
companied by his son. Stanbope, on
the organ. After music, Professor
Holden, Principal of the School,
made short opening address. in
which he spoke in very satisfac.
tory manner Of the general condi
ton OF the School and the good
work done by the different depart
ments. We did not get the program.
as 1t was too long and much of it
had to be omitted. We haven t
space to publish it all, and it is
hardly fair to only give part of it.
Suffice to say, that all the perform
ers acquitted themselves very credi.
tably and were frequently and
heartily applauded. There were
but two mem bers Of the graduating
class, Charley ,ckson and Delmer
Bosley, and they passed very
rigid examination, as will be found
by the questions published on the
first page of this issue. Mr.. Jack =
son recited GLOW Ruby Played" IN
a manner that was heartily APP
plauded. The piece is a famous
one among professional elocution-
lists, and is the story of an oil
countryman who went to hear Ru-
bernstein, the fam Gus musician. Mr..
Bosley, the other graduate, WAS too
hoarse to doclaim and was excused.
Mr.. d. NJ. Wotring, on behalf OF
the Board of Directors, presented
the diplomas in brief but ernest
speech. One of the special musical
selections rendered was that Of Miss
Carroll Robinson on the violin. Mr..
Crane on the cornet and Mrs. Crane
at the organ.
After the exercises of the pupils
in the Principals room, Rev.
Crummett was called upon and
made a short but eloquent address
pertinent TO the occasion. Then
came performances from the pupils
of the other departments, and they
certainly reflected great credit on
the teachers in charge and highly
delighted the audience.
The following lists comprise the
promotions made from the different
departments as the result of the
examinations. From the Grammar
Department to the Higher Depart
ment
Lester Posten, Ira Bowermaster,
James Spahr, Arthur Clayton,
Francis Runner, Mona Bosley.
From the intermediate Depart

Disastrous Result of Midnight Ride
Down tho Road
On Monday night two young men of
this city, each with female companion.
went for a drive down the Riverside road
behind span of spirited horses. on
their return, about 2 o'clock yesterday
morning, the driver lost control of the
horses and the animals ran away, with
disastrous results to themselves and the
occupants OF the vehicle.
The team dashed up the road to Eighth
and w streets, where it was stopped by
running into an excavation made for q
sewer. The occupants We're thrown out.
and it is said one or two of them were
more or less seriously injured. one of
the horses was found under the carriaqe
and the other in the ditch, both being
badly used up.
The team belonged TO the Fashion
Stables. The persons that hired the team
have promised to settle the damages. aud
for that reason the owners will not tell
who were the victims Of the accident.
