Beaver. May 5O-Judges w. F. Knox
and Foster got back from Panguitch
at o'clock this morning, where they
have been engaged in the defense and
prosecution of several criminal cases
tried before Judge McCarty during the
past week there.
Among the list was one OF burglary,
said 70 have been committed by one
Richards at Cannonville, and the crime
as alleged was the stealing Of two bot
ties OF Magic Bitters."
The testimony of the prosecution was
skilifully conducted by Messrs. Knox
and Foster. counsel for defendant, and
after the size OF the window of the
store was measured, through which the
thief was said TO have entered, il was
found only big enough to admit the
body of a boy. The testimony Of the
boy that found one of the bottles said
to have been stolen, in a hay stack,
disclosed the plot of a conspiracy to
shift the crime from two boys who had
been playing the trick for some time,
to the defendant, and the jury returned
a verdict OF not guilty This case Will
cost Garfield county and the state be-
tween $500 and $500.
Dave McCune of Nepfli, charged with
assault with intent to commit rape
at Panguitch last September on the
person of a motherless girl aged IL by
the name of Loui Talbot, was called
for trial. He was defended by E. B.
Critchlow of Salt Lake and prosecuted
by W. F. Knox. Some of the facts con-
nected with this case appeared in The
Herald last fall, but much credit is ac-
corded Judge Knox in answering and
handling the theory of the defense. The
defendant took the stand in his own
behalf; said he was a married man;
admitted he had considerable educa-
ton; had Travelled extensively in the
orient, but in this case his only intent
was harmless Establishments. and that
she yielded willingly to his toying. The
testimony of the girl was pointed and
impressive, and had not the aged father
heard the screams of his daughter, re-
sisting the determined efforts of the
wretch, who. on seeing the parent COM
ing TO her rescue, desisted. and then
ran to the hills. he would doubtless
have accomplished his sensual desires.
He will be sentenced next week, and
viii get plenty of time in the pen to re-
pent of playing the gay Lothario and
his attempt to ruin an innocent girl.
