Of Rachel Durkin, Of Mrs. Skies, and
OF Walter Jones were dismissed, the
questions involved being decided by
other cases. The Union Central Life
Insurance Co.'S claim was allowed.
This was for money paid in to be re.
mitted on mortgage note coupons but
which had not been sent when the
bank failed. Other cases will be
heard at the adjourned term.
OTHER CASES ENDED.
Hurd VS.. Hazeltine, set for ad.
journed session.

CLEMENCE GETS 80 DAYS.
Geo. Clemence, convicted of assault
on Chas. Fritz, was sentenced to 80
days in Jail and $50 fine.
In connection with the case Of X.
5. Miles, convicted of harness steal
ing, Sheriff Robsons fees were cut
down about $ll5. He had gone in
person to summon witnesses in
Brown, Coffey and other distant
counties charging up mileage fees for
over 400 miles. The court held in
accordance with the statutes that the
subpoena should have been sent to
the sheriff of the county in which the
witness lived for service, thus saving
a trip for the sheriff of this county
and saving the county big bill for
mileage as in this case. 1t might be
interesting to look up other cases and
see how witnesses from other coun.
ties have before been summoned. The
heaviest item in this case was one
trip to Coifeyville in which 676 miles
was charged. None Of the foreign
was allowed.
