 IL: drops of rain fell. followed by snow flakes, and people looked around think ing that the winter was with them be- fore they knew it. The storm ceased quickly, however, and as there did not enough rain or snow fall to amount to anything people soon forgot all about it, though many shrugged their shoul- derS during the remainder of the day, as if the sight of the snow had set them thinking of the long winter sea- son ahead of them and for which they probably have made little provision during the warm weather.

 l One of the hind wheels of a wagon | belonging to R. N. Blakeslee rolled off on Bank street, opposite the Baldwin block, this afternoon, letting the end
 of the cart to the ground with a crash l that made dent in the granite paving l blocks and came near soaring the wits out of the driver. The cart was filled
 with coal and the driver was sitting
 on top of it apparently at peace with
 the world when the upset occurred. 1 Workmen tried to jack it up, but the | load was too heavy, and finally they l had to dump about half of it. TheT, | the wagon was lifted high enough to 1 put back the wheel. the nut screwed
 on and the coal filled into the cart
 again, and the man drove on as if noth- ing had happened. There was no dam

 Contention over the costs of law
 suit to recover S10 took William .
 Ruby and James D. Roth of West
 Main street to the city court, civil side.
 this afternoon. Judge Burpee presided,
 and Attorney Thoms represented Ruby
 and Attorney McKane Roth. Roth
 sold a carriage for Ruby for which he
 was to be paid $10. Ruby admitted
 he owed this sum, but refused to pay
 the costs of the law proceedings. He | claimed also that he had rendered the
 money to Roth who claimed other

 changed his lawyers, and there IS where the trouble comes in. It was
 agreed by Messrs Thoms and McKane I that whatever Judge Peasley, Ruby's l former counsel. would say over the I telephone would be accepted, but the l moment he opened his mouth so 10 l speak. the lawyers agreed to disagree. | Judge Burpee deferred his opinion. l VALUABLE TREASURE FOUND.
