Two years or more ago John Weinand
came to this city from the town of Avon
and secured a position as salesman with
the Singer Manufacturing company. Be-
fore doing so he was required to give a
bond of $500, which he did, securing the
names of Aid. Peter Spaniel, of this city,
and Chairman Henry f. Meyer, of Al
bany, of the board of county comm;ssion-
ers After remaining some time in the
employ of the company Weinand left the
city, and until yesterday the men who
signed his bond did not know of his
whereabouts. Neither were they aware
of what he was engaged in They
were forcibly reminded of the fact that
their names were attached to his bond
when a representative of the machine
company made demand on them for the
full amount of the bond. He claimed
that Weinand went from here to Montevl-
dec and engag ed with the Singer COM
pany in a similar capacity as here, and
that he had rendered the bond used here
1t was accepted by the company, and
Weinard went short to the extent of 500.
Several days ago he was sentenced to
fourteen months in the penitentiary. Mr..
Meyer and Mr.. Spaniel declined to make
good the bond, and state that they are
not liable and will pay no part of it I'M
til the courts have passed upon the
matter
Some time ago Hon. C. A. Hunck, of
Duelm, was arrested on the charge of
conducting a blind pig in Benton county.
He was found guilty by Justice Bell at
Sank Rapids, and was fined $50 and
costs. An appeal was taken to the dis
trict court and that was argued before
Judge Searle by J. D. Sullivan. The ar
rest Of Mr.. Hunck was made under the
law passed at the last session of the leg
iSlature, and Mr. Sullivan contended that
the law did not apply to cases of this
sort, but to those cases where intoXicants
were sold where license could not be
secured until any of the statutory limita-
tons, such as public school buildings,
park additions, local option settlements,
etc. He also contended that the new law
was unconstitutional, inasmuch as il
vested too much authority in a justice of
the peace who is given by it's terms a
right to condemn or confscate property,
no matter of what value, If found in a
place where liquor is sold without a
license Judge Searle took the matter
under Amusement.

rotary of State Peter Hanson. The we'd
ding will be very quiet affair, and will
