the Temple of Justice.
The civil court docket is being cleared
up as rapidly as possible now and
Tuesday morning It was announced
that the criminal court would begin on
Monday, November 27.-There are about
ten cases to come up this term. With
the exception of the Henderson murder
case most of them are such as will
probably not require over a day to try.
Prosecutor Pomerene is hard at work
getting the evidence in shape.
A rumor has been floating about town
for several days to the effect that now
that Prosecutor Pomerene had been de-
feated for reelection, that an effort
would be made by Henderson and his
friends to have his case passed till next
term when Mr.. Pomerene will be out or
| office. The prosecutor stated that he
did not expect to have 1t continued and
he would insist on going to trial.
BIALY SUES A SECOND TIME.
Robert c. Bialy has commenced suit
a second time against the ]. H. McLain
Co. for damages amounting to 1882. He
says in the petition, filed by Miller and
Pomerene, that he bought heater for
$3.50 from the McLain Co. which they
warranted to heat a certain building.
1t did not do 1t. He had to expend 1892
more to make the job right. He had
sued for this sum once before but about
month ago when the case was called
he was busy at Washington and could
not come. He had it dismissed and now
has started again.
| WANTS ANOTHER CHANCE.
Attorneys Piero and Grant who rep
resented Thomas Hayman in the sland-
er case last week in which his cousin
James got verdict for 5000 against him
have filed motion for a new trial. They
claim the verdict was excessive; was
rendered under the influence Of passion
and prejudice; that it is not sustained
by the evidence, and because Of error in
the trial.
WIFE WANTS SUPPORT.
Elsie Williams, through Miller and
Pomerene, has sued her husband John
Williams, for alimony. They were mar
ried in 1898 but she declares John never
bought her S. worth Of clothing in his
life. Last February they went tc
housekeeping with their child but the
husband refused to buy enough pro-
duce to keep things going. Then he be-
came abusive and stayed away nights
until his wife left him. She says they
own some household goods and prays

fendant was enjoined from disposing
of the property till the suit is settled.
