MUNICIPAL COURT.
More Business, Wednesday, But Of Lit
tie Profit to the County.

Business was good, again. at the mu-
nicipal court room, yesterday forenoon.
and three cases were disposed of by the
Judge. The first was that of Thomas
Dolan, who was in for drunkenness.
having been taken into custody by
Deputy Marshal Hanks at train No.
II, Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Dolan was
a member of the National Home at
TOgus, on furlOugh, and the court
thought that everything would be for
given on the payment of IA So fine.
The continued case of Mrs. Frank La
fave, on whom warrant was served.
Monday, charging her with assault and
battery. and sworn out by Mrs. Lucy
Lacomb, was also heard. Mrs. La
comb. the complainant, was represent
ed by F. q. Harrington, and Mrs la
fave. the defendant, by Benedict f.
Maher. The testimony, which was in
troduced by the defendant tended to
show that the complainant was an ag-
gressor, and from what was learned
during the progress of the hearing, the
matter was, by the agreement of the
counsel for the two parties, dropped,
and the judge refrained from rendering
a decision.
Another case which came up, grew
out of the seizure of liquor at the
house of George Daniels. on Laurel
street, by the deputy enforcement COM
missioners. Tuesday afternoon. Arthur
Cormier was arrested by them, yester-
day morning, and brought before the
court. He was represented by Benedict
F. Maher, and pleaded not guilty, but
the court ruled that he be fined 800
and costs. An appeal was taken, how
ever, and bonds furnished in the sum Of
$500, for his appearance at the January
term of the superior court.

FROM LAW COURT.
Rescripts in Androscogein, Lincoln
and Franklin County Cases.

ceived three rescripts from the law
court as follows:
Androscoegin County.
AndrOscoggin county. Michael Miller
VS.. John Yurko. Rescript. (No
opinion.) StrOut, j.
The evidence was contradictory.
Much depended upon it's credibilty
Most Of the testimony came through
the unsatisfactory medium Of inter-
prefers. The jury saw and heard the
witnesses, and had better opportun-
ity to judge of their accuracy and re-
liability than can be furnished by a re-
port of the evidence. Under these
circumstances we are not disposed 10
disturb the verdict
Motion Overruled

Yesterday morning was another cold

Yesterday morning was another cold
one, and had the ground been covered
with snow. the weather would have
furnished a very good sample of a
New England winter morning. Some
of the thermometers about the city in
dicated the same temperature as that
of Tuesday morning. but in one place
on the east side of the river the mer-
curry showed only 8 above zero. Ice
formed in the eddies along the shore
of the river to the thickness of half
inch. The weather was cold, all day.
but moderated toward evening, and
was followed by a heavy rain storm
from the southeast.

islature of Idaho rushed through a
bill granting divorce TO. captlva-

of her husband. She had influential
friends who were members of the leg
islature and thought it safer and
quicker than to apply to the cor71S
One of the members, who W
disguised with this summary way
of usurping the powers of the courts
and who had voted against the bill
arose and said:
"Mr. Speaker, I rise to a point OF
order. I am summoned to attend a
meeting of one of the committees OF
this honorable body, of which
am chairman. I have wife at
home of whom I am very fond. I
earnestly and respectfully beg the
house not to divorce me from her
during my absence"
