THE CASE.

The Republican has given much
space to the testimony of the trial Of
M. ]. COughlin which is now nearing q
close In the district court We have
carefully refrained from giving opin>
ions as to the merits or dement's OF
the case for the reason that the jury
has not been confined and has had &C
cess to the daily papers of the city, and
any such comments would hardly be
in good taste. but now, as the case
nears its conclusion, a short retrospect
may be INDUCED.
Around Michael J Coughlin has been
weaved a web of circumstances most
discriminating. A trap was laid for him
by his neighbors and the county Off
Gals. and, judging from the evidence,
he unwittingly fell into it. The testi-
mony is most damaging. But when it
Is recollected that a hired deputy sher-
III, clothed with all the authority Of
law, after apparently entrapping his
game, so far neglects his obligation to
those who hired him as to make the
mistake of giving opportunity of hav>
ing his find of hoofs and bones tamper.
cred with, thereby leaving room for
Jurors to create a reasonable doubt as
to their genuineness, then censure must
fall upon him. This seems to be an in
%eXcusable omission and cannot be con-
doned.
The Republican has no personal feel.
ing in the case, but when the county is
put to the expense it has been in this
case. at least proper diligence and Wig
ilance upon the part of the officers is
expected and even demanded by those
whose money goes to pay the freight.
II MI. Courhlin is guilty the
ity will wish him punished; if inno-
cent, not prosecuted.

BAD AS A GOLD BRICK,

A peculiar case came up recently in
the Missouri courts A year or more
ago Florence A. Talbot sued her hus>
band, John a. Talbot, for divorce i in
the court of Hardin county. O.. TIE di,
vorce YVES granted by default, Talbo,
Icing in Iowa at the time, and NJ $.
Talbot vas given a decree fJr aim ny
in the sum of 81 800. She sid the all.
mony to Peter Hamil. Later Talbo,
moved to Nodaway county, No. and in
the court there Hamil got judgmen,
against him for the $1,000. AS his de,
tense Talbot claimed that the divorce
was void because proper service on him
was not obtained according to the Ohio
law. The court Of appeals, in a de.
cision handed down today, holds this
to be true, and the decision Of the Ohio
court was virtually reversed. In this
way Talbot will dodge the paying OF
the alimony, and will still be divorced,
because he will not go back to Ohio
and ask for the setting aside of the di,
yorce. Now all parties interested are
satisfied except Hamil, who it would
seem has been guilty Of investing his
money in something like a gold brick"
Lawyers say the decision stands alone
In the Missouri court record.

THE Collar and the Wind"
One was n mighty officer
In the Wyoming corps of cadets,
The other a good, little private
With, as yet. no cause for regrets.
The wind was bowling gaily,
The wind it was sharp and cold,
And the private turned up his collar
Then shuddered at being so bold.
For the officer, mighty and powerful,

SURPRISE ON BULLETIN BOARD.
The righteous, self-satisfied senior,
Walked leisurely down the hall
With soul quite unconscious of evil
With a smile and good morning for
A paper pinned on the bulletin board
Caught that virtuous seniors eye,
Who. wondering what the news was
,Carelessly sauntered by.
The president wants to see some one
expect he'll be terribly scored"
In horror she stopped, for her own
Was pinned on that bulletin board,
And they all said, why what is thu
matter?
And, what have you been doing
now?"
And she wondered, too. standing there
thunderstruck,
Wrinkling her classical brow.
With fear written over her features
She knocked at the presidents door
And walked in expecting suspension,
Expulsion or something yet more.
The president graciously nodded
And said he was glad she had come
Then asked her to write college items
To send to the paper at home.
