DISTRICT COURT MATTERS.

The charge of grand larceny preferred
a few weeks ago by job A. Leggat
against Lewis DeMars was dismissed by
Justice Nichols today at the request of
the county attorney by consent of Mr..
Leggat. The case involves a promissory
note for $1,000, which Mr.. Leggat held
against the defendant. One day he call
ed the attention of the defendant to it
and the latter is alleged to have taken
it and walked away. After the criminal
action was commenced, however, a civil
suit was instituted against DeMars;
hence. the suppression of the larceny
charge.

People interested in animals who be-
