Lawyer F. u. Prince filed Saturday

an u character even in this state

Hammond permitted F. r. Smith to use
his coach and harness for a time. When
he suggested to Smith that he should re-
turn his property he was astonished to
learn that Smith claimed to have bought
it for $3.50. AS Hammond had received
nothing, he now brings suit for 500, the
value he places upon the property, and
$3.50 damages for the retention of the
property, n asks for a writ OF replevin.
1t has been four years since a suit of
this character has been fined in the Mis-
Soula court.

The Court of Appeals. in an opinion writ
ten by Mr.. Justice Morris, in the case of
the District of Columbia, plaintiff in error,
against George Hazel, directs the Police
Court to vacate the motion to quash the in
