AFFAIRS OF THE COUNTY.
Much Routine Business Transacted
Dead Animals Discussed.

Yesterdays session of the board of
county commissioners was a busy one,
and prolific both of discussion and ac-
ton. Between working spurts a rather
unSavory subject came I'D for discus
sion. 1t was called up by bills OF GER
tain constables for the burial of dead
animals found within their precinct
limits.
One constable sent in a bill of 81 80
fer burying a dead sheep. The affidavit
did not state whether the man took the
wool from the carcass, and after some
discussion the matter was laid over.
The informal discussion over the mat
ter tended TO show that the board
thought the claim too high. Another
party sent in a bill for IS for conveying
four dead animals three miles and
burying them. The bill did not state
whether the animals were horses and
had good shoes on, or whether they
were cattle and anything could be
realized from their hides. The discus
sion ranged over many subjects, in

Blythe Case Still in Court

Washington, May 1O-Attorney W.
II. H. Hart of California, for Mrs.
Florence Blythe Hinckly, who secured
the property of the late Henry T.
Blythe, made motion TO dismiss the
case in the supreme court today Sen
alto Hunton of Virginia, for the contest
ants, opposed the motion and denied
that the case had been brought to the
supreme court merely for delaying the
perfecting of Mrs. Hinckley's title to
the estate. 1t is claimed by the con-
testants. as Mrs. Hinckley is a sub
ject of Great Britain, she could not in
herit land in the United States and the
state could not enact laws permitting
aliens to inherit land. The court took
the papers and reserved decision.
