In the year ITO the weight OF fat
cattle in the London market averaged
only $40 pounds. This, too, at the
average of five years, prior to which
time they were not considered as being
marketable. In 1925 this average
weight had increased to nearly 1872
pounds. In 1880, los years later, the
average weight of cattle sold on the
London market was $50, almost twice
what it was in ITO, and at that time
the average age at which such beasts
were sold was only 4 years. as against
5 years at the earlier date. We have
no statistics which show exactly the
average weight of the fat cattle of to-
day, but believe that we are not far
from the truth when we say that it is
at least, twice what it was in 1880,
and upwards of four times greater than
it was in 1710.-Republic.

A Sutton Egger Released.

SOUTH BEND, May 3.-John Gardner
has been released from the county jail
by order of the county commissioners,
approved by Superior Judge Lang
horne. Gardner was convicted last
December of assaulting E. B. Sutton.
the A. P. A. lecturer, with rotten eggs.
He had seven months of his sentence
yet to serve. The petition for his re-
lease was signed by number of the
members of the members of the A. P.
A., on the ground that he was only a
tool and not one of the ring leaders in
the assault.

Attorneys Phelps and Gates represented
the State, and J. L. Story the defendant.
After hearing the testimony, the justice
concluded the offense had been COM

turned if the stock was not satisfactory.

returned a verdict of $120.50 for the

down the Endersby hill near R. Sig
mans, when the pole to the hack
dropped to the ground, which af-
frighted the horses and they be-
came unmanageable. Mr.. Roth was
precipitated to the ground with great vio-
lence, sustaining severe scalp wound,
which dazed him for some time. Upon
his arrival in Dufur, DIR. Dietrich
dressed the wound, and now Mr.. Roth
appears to be as sound as ever. The
pole to the hack was broken, and the
harness in several places, also, but the
horses were not materially injured.

JUDGE SHOWS RULING.
Must Explain to The Supreme Court
Why He Quashed the Case.

Judge Snow of Saginaw quashed the
Information against Rev. o. D. Taylor
for obtaining money by false pretense.
on the ground that Act 234 of 1895, re-
pealed the section of Howell's providing
a penalty for this offense. The fact of
this ruling was that prosecut tions for
otfenses of this kind, committed prior to
Sept. 1st, 1895, when the new act took
effect, are barred. Yesterday the su-
preme court Issued peremptory writ,
ordering Judge Snow to set aside his
order and proceed with the trial or show
cause forthwith why he should not be
compelled to do go. The court called
his attention to the recent case of the
People vs. Kinney, in which they hele
directly contrary to his ruling. -Sagi-
