out of court. It has left this branch OF
the courts work lighter than for any
term for several months.
The case of Peterson VS.. Lacey, from
Marietta township, in which the plain
tilt asked damages for injury to grow
ing crops by the defendants sheep, was
taken from the jury and verdict o4-
rected for the plaintiff.
The case of Mrs. Alice Thomas, adj
lninisrratrix, VS.. James and katie
Filler, an appeal from Justice Glrtoh $
court at Rhodes in which the plalntliI
asked for Judgment for medical SER
vices alleged to have been rendered by
her husband, the late DR.. Thomas, has
been dismissed at the plaintiffs cost.
Mrs. III. o. Michaels has filed a petit
ton for injunction against LaPlant
Bros, G. w. and L. w. LaPlant re-
straning them from injuring shade
trees in front of her chem by the
moving of the Johnson property from
Third to Fourth avenue. Judge CasWell
granted the Injunction.
Judge Caswell this morning appoint
ed Mr. A. +. Nuese, of Pickering. guar
dian for Frederick Dannenbrink. John
Banzhaf. who was appointed by Judge
Bllrnham at the last term, refusing to
serve.
Mr. Nuese has been Mr.. Dennen-
Drinks closest friend during the trou-
BILE that was brought upon him at the
last term of court in the case filed by
Mrs. Sophia Mccoy. of Montour, who
asked that q guardian be appointed to
prevent him spending his money indis-
creetly. When Mr. Banzhaf was APP
pointed, and went to take charge of Mr..
Dannenbrink S bank account, no money
could be found, the latter having hidden
! it without the knowledge of any one.
Mr.. Nuese, Judge Caswell considers, is
the proper man to look after Mr.. Dam
nenbrink, as he has been friendly to-
| ward him at all times, and is now CIV
| ing him home while recovering from
| injuries resulting from falling down the
steps of the Pickering depot.
Presentation of several matters In the
Hibben estate was made to the court
this morning by c. ]. Hoyt, executor of
| the estate. Mr.. Hoyt asks for instruc-
| tons as to what to do with certain
matters, particularly life insurance
money: whether a portion of 1T can be
1 taken as Inheritance tax. and should
so to a trustee in bankruptcy. or to the
heirs. There seems to be a contest on
as to where certain portions of the
money should go, and the court has
/ been asked to determine 1T. Further
hearing was postponed until parties in
| terested, living at a distance, can be
cited to appear.
! A case from Tama county was
brought before Judge Caswell this
morning. T.. l. Wilcox, of Montour. has
asked for the appointment of a receiver
to take charge of crops'on the land oc-
cupied by one of his tenants. The APP
1 pointment of the receiver was resisted,
the tenant showing that he stood will
| ing for Mr.. Wilcox to take charge OF
substantially all OF the crop that re-
manned on the land. Mr.. Wilcox's prin-
/ cipal claim was that the crop was be-
ing wasted Judge Caswell failed to see
/ the necessity Of a receiver and denied
| the request of Mr. Wilcox.

rARAsHING COMES HIGH.
Costs Quarry School Teacher s25.4o
for chastisement Administered to


Pupil.
Late Saturday afternoon Justice
w. NJ Clark rendered decision in
the case of Albert Bean, the Quarry
schoolmaster, who was charged with
assault and battery upon pupil,
Evert Anderson. Mr. Bean was fined
$500 and costs, or three days in jail,
The fine was RENTED on payment of
the costs, which amount to 5000.
The defendant was given the customs
airy time to settle, or appeal the case.
1t is not known yet which he Will do.
The case was stubbornly contested,
there being fourteen witnesses exam
ined, eight of whom Were pupils in
the school taught by Mr.. Bean. The
principle point under dispute was as
to the extent of the beating the boy
received. The state did not question
the right of the school master to chas-
tise the pupil, but maintained that he
was beaten with undue severity. Pu-
pills who witnessed the scene testified
that the Anderson boy was struck with
hard strap, doubled, no less than
twenty times. The boys back was
barred in court and introduced as evil
dence, and it showed plainly the black
and blue marks caused by the beating.
The states evidence also tended to
show that Mr. Bean, to u certain ex-
tent, lost his temper during the correc-
ton of the pupil. and welded the strap
with undue Zest. After considering
the evidence Justice Clark rendered
the decision. 1t is thought by some
that Mr.. Bean may appeal the case to
the district court.

will be time to begin to worry.
All of the dealers report sufficient

high prices, to supply the demand un-

The coal men report an average OF
| about $50 tons in stock. The supply is
coming slowly, however, and some of
it is being contiscated from time to
time, as needed by the railroads. In
other words If a railroad company is
short of coal, and is hauling it to Mar
shalltown, for instance, billed to deal
err here, it takes the supply for its
own use, and settles the bill after
wards. The law, 1t seems, gives the rail-
road company that power. SO far as the

! is concerned, and that excuse is in
variably offered.
The Central is little short of Aoal at
present at it's Marshalltown, Oskaloosa

and Went crashing down the embank-
ment, rolling over on Its side. Mr..

the darkness added to the confusion.
The cries of the injured confined in the
cars were heard for some distance Mr..

was taken to nearby farm house, until
medical aid could reach them. While
he is very badly bruised and shaken up,
his injuries are not considered serious.
