DISTRICT COURT.
The Daily Grind of the Mills of
Justice.

settlement of the matter outside of
the court, and the court must wait
another day for the next case to come
for hearing and the show is repeated.
1t was that way the greater part of
last week and the same condition OF
affairs has started in for the present
week. The case of James W. Shelley
Robt. Mitchell for damages was as
signed for jury trial Monday. When
the court came prepared for the trial
of the case it was found that there
had been an understanding outside
of court signed by the attorneys and
the parties to the case and that
stipulation for the settlement of the
affair had been filed. The jury is
ready for duty at any time but the
chance is lacking. 1t is good jury
and no reflections are to be SHE'D
that way, but the court remarked the
other day, what is the trouble, the
attorneys look at the jury and settle
their cases outside of court?n
In addition to the matters assigned
for trial Monday there was quite
little business attended to by the
court and a number of cases were dis
posed of and wiped off the calendar
The case assigned for the courts at
tention Tuesday was that of E @
Evans Chas. McCleary. An appeal
case. The preliminaries we're finally
done awayiwith, the jury called and
