A HOPELESS CASE.
The Prosecution Had No Show to Sc
cure Conviction.

Walter Shoup, clerk OF the police
court, had TO prosecute a case today
which certainly must have been mis-
represented to him when he Issued a
warrant for the defsndsnt's arrest, a.
from the evidence adduced he had moi
n ghost OF q show to secure q convic'
ton.
1t was "neighborly" row in which
DR.. Meir, local veterinary surgeon,
residing at l2I south First West street,
was the complainant, and George Ri.
ley, residing at the same place, was
the Defendant.
The testimony showed that the DOCTOR
had rented apartments to Mrs. Morley
who kept roomers, one of which was
the defendant Riley. On Saturday
last Mr.. Meir demanded his rent from
Mrs. Moriey-an act which Riley ap.
pears to have told Meir was very un-
gentiemanly, thus provoking Il dis-
cussion. In the discussion Riley seems
to have used few swear " Ords. W hlch
the doctor didn't take kindly to. there
fore he had him arrested for using In
sul'ing and abusive language.
Ut. Mtir tesIiueu W tue auoVt, put
when cross.exsmined by the defend
ant, who appeared TO be bit of
lawyer himself, the doctor attempted
% evsde answering his questions,
asserting that he GIdn't think Riley
had anything to do with the infOrms-
ton he was attempting to elliott and
bring before the court.
The case was very interesting
throughout, and Involved the testi-
mony OF q number OF witnesses. When
all was said and done Justice Wenger
discharged the defendaut, at the same
time telling both parties that they
ought to be ashamed OF themseivss.
Mr.. Shoup, az personal---very. from the
very beginning OF the hearing that he
hsu hopeless case. therefore he was
reconciled TO the result when II was
made known.
