pie with the little pupils will be pleased

Justice Baum 10 hearing a case
to-day wherein II. Il. Heth and W. d;
Bovey are plaintiffs and Walnut
township is defendant. During 1894
and since township warrants were ls-
sued for work done on highways and
bridges in the township The war
rants have not been paid and payment
is refused on the ground that the war.
rants were illegally drawn, as there
was no money in the treasury at the
time they were issued. Mr.. Hsth has
sued for $l72 rs, and Mr.. Bovey for
$34 so. There are other warrants
outstanding.
The case has been continued for
fifteen days.
On the 18th Of June three horses
and seven weeks old colt were taken
from the pasture Of Frank SpauRy OF
Bow Greek. Two days sfterward one
Of the horses returned with her throat
cut from ear TO ear, Mr.. Spaugy
managed to save her and drove her
to town today. In looking for the
other animals the body of the colt
was found five miles from the pasture,
disemboweled, and throat also cut.
No trace has been found Of the other
animals. One horse was Of special
value to Mr.. Spaugy, as he is badly
crippled, and had the horse trained
for his own use. It is not known who
perpetrated this deed, though efforts
are being made TO run the rascal
down.
