CONVICTED, YET UNTRIED.
Peculiar Situation Results in Sam
Grice's Release.


Samuel Grice. sentenced two weeks
ago 70 serve sixty days in the county
Jail fo- completely in selling a stolen
shotgun from Bingham. was released
yesterday through a peculiar combina-
ton of circumstances Grice is an old
offender and has been behind the bars
frequently for minor offenses, but his
latest experience is a new one to him
The evidence introduced by the state
when Grice was arraigned before JUS
tice Lochrie was not of the most con-
vincing character. but sufficient in the
mind of the magistrate to convict him,
and he was given sixty days. Through
a clerical error the entry on the docket
showed that he had been held to the
district court. instead OF convicted and
sentenced. To straighten this out il
was necessary for the magistrate TO va
cate his order. leaving the prisoner to
all intents and purposes untried, al
though he had in fact served out part
OF his sentence. In view of this fact
and the lack Of direct evidence. Coun-
Y Attorney Christensen decided not to
bring further prosecution.
