posing of the thirty-five cases on the
trial list for the third week of the
March term.
Judge Savdge is engaged in trying

Guernsey against j. w. Guernsey. The
plaintiff claims he contracted April /,
1896 to give up his own business of
selling musical instruments and work
for the defendant for five years in the
same business at salary ranging be-
tween $3.50 and $500 a month. He was
discharged Jan. %, 1898. and brought
suit to recover his salary for the re-
naming three years.
The defense is that he re-engaged in
business for himself and thereby ter
minated the contract. At a previous
trial of the case before arbitrators It
was decided that the plaintiff had no
cause for action.
j. w. Carpenter and +. G. Newcomb

Five Divorce Case Hearings.

No appearance for the respondent
was made in the Rinsland divorce case
when it came to be heard yesterday
in chambers before Judge Archibald.
Witnesses for tho libellant were exam
ined by Mr.. Rinslands attorneys. Vos-
burg e. Dawson. Their story was sub
stantially a detailed statement of the
matters contained in the libel.
Hearings were also had in the di-
vorce cases of Maria Burgess against
Oscar Burgess, Henry Wood against
Susan NJ. Wood, Wilford c. Taylor
against Lillian NJ. Taylor and Charles
Molter against Harriet +. Molter.
Desertion was charged in each case
and, as there was no opposition on the
part of the respondent, the testimony
was devoid of any novel features, the
libellant in each instance being satis-
fled to make it appear that the respon-
dent left home without just cause and
continues to be absent.
