GOOD SIZED JUDGEMENTS.
A Local Bank Gets 1,7S4-An
Assault that Cost ST 800.

Judge Severance Monday filed his de-
cision in the suit of the Mankato
National bank to recover money al
legged to have been loaned to Shaw,
Charleton & Co. He gives the bank
judgment for 81, 7S4. No appearance
was made for the defense, and the
next step will be to recover the mon
ey, as it is expected that the indi-
vidual members of the company will
put in defense. The co-partners are
Thos. c. Shaw and Henry Charleton, of
St. Paul, Lewis E. Booker, of Grand
Forks, and Jud LaMoure, of Dakota,
and they are responsible parties. w.
E. Young is the banks attorney.
Judge Severance heard the case
of August Mitzner VS.. Albert Zacha-
rias last week. The plaintiff sued
to recover $500 damages for an
aggravated assault which he alleged
that the defendant had committed,
and the evidences of which were
very apparent in Mitzner's physical
appearance. No defense was made,
and the court awarded the plaintiff
judgment for 81 800. W. E. Young is
attorney for the plaintiff.
