@
@ A correspondent OF the Herald
briefly discusses the litigation with
the Electric Il Water company. "a It
gives the impression that an appeal
can be taken at practically no ex-
3pense. The fact 3is, as before stated.
that the side that appeals must .ad-
vance about $3.50 to the clerk Of
court for fees and printing. He
must prepare the records. and the
prin ting ID done under his direction
and control. . When that is done and
bonds given for from $4,000 to
$40, 600, the city may so on getting
even' with the Electric 4 Water
company. At tho final end Vasaly
must admit that his crusade has
failed, and that the city has gained
nothing and lost thousands Of dol
lars. If he can postpone the finish
by increasing largely the city's loss
he can pose q while longer az an
octopus killer. But he ia not In q
very heroic attitude, even now.

Late Saturday afternoon Justice
Sheldon's court was occupied in
hearing a case. the principals in
which were employees at the brick
yard. The case was Frank Tan
detsk1 and Martin Tillman
against John Michaels. The two
first mentioned are boys who, 1t is
said, are always in trouble with their
fellow workmen. They can never
agree with any one and whenever q
scrap is brewing ache to be mixed
up in it. Mr.. Michaels, VINO is engi-
neer at the yard, noticed Saturday
forenoon that the boys were pick
ing on some one so took 1t upon him
self to chastise them. Evidently he
got a little too forcible, for the boys
rebuked came to town and swore
out a warrant for Michael's arrest.
When taken before the Justice he
was let go by simply paying the
costs, $4.35.

Thus far we have not been in
formed whether Samuel Kassala
has been able to ascertain II he has
any legal claim on that bird dog"
he had stolen from him when in the
city recently or not. At any rate he
is minus one dog while E. A. Flood
claims to have recovered a canine
he has been unable to locate for the
past six months. When Kassala
was in town q few days ago Flood
recognized his lost pet and, in a
roundab out way. got possession OF
it. A kid that was concerned in the
"swiping' deal was frightened for
awhile as Kassala had threatened to
arrest him. This he failed to do as
he undoubtedly thought Flood
really had some claim on the animal.
Flood would nike to punish Kassala
for having tho dog in his possession
but is afraid he would be at the
wrong end OF the deal when the case
came to trial. Recent possession is
subject to prosecution for theft but
when a person claims to have had
something for half a year it ia con-
siderable harder to prove such a
charge. ~ .
