WANTED HIS HORSE BACK.

The story of an unusual horse trade
comes from CaldwelPs run. Two we'll
known residents of that section of the
South Side few days ago agreed to
swap horses, and after the trade was
made one of the parties became dissat-
isfied. According to the charge made
against him he waited until the mid
die of night and broke into his neigh
boris stable and took out his former
horse and replaced it with the animal
ne traded for. 1t is alleged that the
next day when the neighbor went to his
house to expostulate he was assaulted
with few Dewey brick bats. The case
will likely result in legal prosecution.

The employees at the county courthouse
have been notified that they would. be ex-
pected TO put up good round share OF

that the clerks and deputies will be asked
