be a lively contest over the clerkship,
which is now held by Attorney W. f.

clerk while he was a member Of the
board, but was required to resign the
trusteeship when he changed his place
of residence some months ago. He was
not required to give up the clerkship,

Suit Over 2 liorse Rae.

\ rather novel civil suit was tried
in the commissioners court Monday
afternoon. y week or SO ago horse
race was matched and run at the track
at the fair grounds between Deck
little and a stranger, whose name
has not been learned. 1t seems that
the terms Of the race were that the
first horse to pass under the wire was
to be declared the winner, and the
stakes, amounting to s3S side, were
placed in the hands of W. Il. Davis.
The little horse came out ahead, and
Mr.. Davis paid over the money ac-
c0rdingly. Now comes the other man
and claims that the rider of the Tit
tie horse reached over and caught his
animal by the bride and held him
back, thus winning the race, and has
sued Mr.. Davis in a civil acticn to re-
cover the wager.
