Justice Kline heard yesterday afternoon
a case in which Mrs. c. S. Carter, of No.
5l2 Anderson street, east, was virtually
charged by Jackson, Metzger & co. with
the wrongful appropriation of goods to
the amount Of $70, and in which the mag
istrate sustained the contentious of the
plaintiffs.
The case arose through the purchase Of
a bill of goods by Miss Mallette the daugn-
ter of Mr. J. L. Maette, whose family

that the goods had been sent and received
al the wrong address, ana that they had
come into the possession of Mrs Garter.

not suftice, as she Indignantly denied ever
having received 1t, and possessory war
rant was sworn out before Justice Kline.
As Mrs. carter could not produce the
goods she was arrested and taken to the
once Of the magistrate, where the hear
ing was held in the afternoon. The tes-
tifnony was 10 the effect that the goods
had been brought to the house next door
20 the Carriers and that the driver had
there inquired for No, 5l2, TO which, in
stead Of 5l4, the package had been d.
rected by mistake. Ii was shown that
II had been received by Mrs. Carter tesu-
mony 10 this effect being given by the
Mallettes and by the driver of the wagon
and that the alleged signature of Mrs
Ma4lette in the delivery book was incor-
rectly spelled and did not at all resemble
that OF the person wdaae it purported 10
pc. Mrs Carter still denied ever having
received the goods
Upon the showing made the magistrate
feit imDelled TO hold the defendant unless
the goods We're produced and rendered his

lock the stable doors. And herd
the hens and watch the bees
and take the mules to drink
and teach the turkeys how to
swim, so that they wouldn't
sink; and milk about a hundred
COWS and bring the wood to
burn. And stand out in the
sun all day and churn and churn
and churn. and wear my broth

four miles to school. and get a
licking every day for breaking
some old rule. And then get
home again at night and do the
chores some more, and milk the
cows and feed the hogs and
curry mules galore, and then
crawl YEARLY upstairs and in
my little bed. and hear dad say,
That worthless boyle isn't
