Cot c.-. In Supreme Court.

The famous controversy growing
out of the ownership of Sioux Falls
cat has now reached the state supreme
court, and bids fair to attract more
attention than the celebrated Iowa
calf case. Some months ago the Fin
stad and Lewis families, who were
Iieighbors quarreled over the cat,
which belonged to Miss Ida Finstad.
1t appears that the animal fell into the
habit of going to the home of Mrs.
Lewis. One day Miss Finstad went to
the home of Mrs. Lewis to get the cat.
Mrs. Lewis. it was alleged, not only re-
fused to surrender the animal, but
slapped Miss Finstad. The arrest of
Mrs. Lewis followed upon the charge
of assault. and she was found guilty.
Then she had Miss Finstad arrested
for the alleged theft of the cat. Miss
Finstad's trial resulted in her acquit-
tai. States Attorney Scott prosecuted
the case against Miss Fipstad. He has
Just procured writ of error from the
state supreme court. and at the Octo-
Der term the cat case will be solemnly
reviewed by the members of that court

About II o'clock an alarm was turned
in from the First ward and the depart
ment was called to the residence of
R. @. Hunter on East Main street. A
small building used for a kitchen, al
most touching the dwelling on the east,
was burning and was almost entirely
consumed. The main dwelling caught
over the kitchen, but the tin roof con-
fined the flames until they were extin-
guished. There was considerable dam
age to the furniture and building but
it is covered by insurance.
Before the fire laddies left this fire
an alarm was turned in from the Third
ward and the city was soon lighted by
the vicious flames that were destroying
| the West Park church. The church
was recently built by the M E. Church
South, and was handsome and mod
ern building, costing over two thous
and dollars and carrying only one
thousand dollars insurance. Services
we're held there earlier in the evening
and the fire is supposed to have origi
mated from the furnace. A residence
belonging to J. NJ. Hunt, adjoining,
caught from the church and was entire
ly consumed. Loss partly covered by
insurance.

and Western Railway company is at
tempting to acquire, by condemnation
proceedings, rights Of wsy in Scott and
Wise counties, Virginia, and the cause
before Judge Price was in the form Of
quo wsrranto proceeding, question
ing the legal existence Of the South
and Western Railway company, and
bringing it before the court to show
cause why It's corporate franchise shall
not be declared forfeited or annulled.
One Of the questions which was dealt
with OF considerable length by counsel
on both sides was, whether the forfeit
ure clause above quoted was self-exe-
outing, or whether it required some di.
rect adjudication Of the court TO enforce
the forfeiture. But the most interest
ing and most important question dis
cussed was, whether or not the corpor-
alton commission had any power under
the law to grant the amendment upon
which the South and Western Railway
company relies. Counsel for the rela
tors contended that this attempted
amendment Of the charter was wholly
void, because the effort Of it would b.
q remission of the forfeiture provided
for in the original charter, and, as they
commended, the legislature alone ha
the power, under the constitution Q
Virginia, to remit forfeitures.
The case was argued for the relator
by J. @. Bysrs, of Bristol; J. F. Bullitt
of Big Stone Gap, aud Frank W. Chris

Case Against S. & W. Submitted to Court.

The attorneys in the case Of Com
monwealth OF Virginia at the relation
OF the Virginia and Southeastern Rail-
way company, and sundry citizens of
Scott county, against the South and
Western Railway company, completed
their agreement of facts at late hour
Tuesday night. On yesterday morn
ing the agreed statement Of facts were
laid before Hon. John W. Price, judge
Of the corporation court, and the entire
day was consumed by the argument.
AS indicated in Tuesday mornings
Courier, the original charter Of the s.
& W. Ry. Co. was granted by special
act of the general assembly on the and
day of Ppril 1902, and contained the
following forfeiture clause:
"The said company shall, in two
years from the passage OF this act, have
thirty miles of railroad in operation il
Virginia, or the rights hereby granted
shall cease"
The company did not, in two year
from the passage of this act, have thir
ty miles of railroad in operation il
Virginia, and has never built or opera
ted any railroad in Virginia.

County Court.

County court met in regular quar-
lterly session Monday.
W. r. Reeves was elected chairman
over Chas. Campbell by a vote of 10 to
IA.
Guy s. Chase defeated f. s. Depew
for county superintendent by vote of

Il. j. Baxter was reelected county
attorney over Mr.. Stone by 10 to II.
r. P. Cloyd and W. A. CARRIER were
elected Jail commissioners.
The county will build two miles of
road this year under the provisions of
chapter p of the acts of 1908, and a
special levy of 20 cents was made for
that purpose upon motion of Esquire
Lyle. At the October term the court
selected a mile of the Fall Branch road
lat Stuart's Hill, and a mile on the
main road to Joresboro commencing
at the johnson City corporation line,
to be built. The roads have been sur
Iveyed and specifications will be pre-
pared and bids asked for at once by the
commissioners. The mile of road to
be built near the city will extend Wal
nut street from the corporation line be-
yond the main entrance to the soldier
home and almost to the Burt's Mill
lane. This road building is in the ma
ture OF an experiment, but it is believed
that it will be SO satisfactory that about
five miles of road will be built each
year and paid for as built. The beauty
Of this direct taxation plan is that if it
is found desirable to reduce expenses
for any year on account of an epidemic,
or for any reason, the road levy can be
cut ont and taken up again when the
people may be better able to pay. With
bond issue, the levy for interest must
60 on forever. 1t would require levy
of 20 cents to pay interest upon bond
issue of 100000, to say nothing of a
sinking fund.
Other routine work was done and
court adjourned Tuesday afternoon.

Depew Dies.

The Jonesboro correspondent OF the
Knoxville Journal says: Tom Depew,
the young man who was shot at the
Christmas tree out at Columbia Insti-
tute' on Friday night, December 23d,
died the Thursday night following.
Bob Isenberg, charged with doing the
shooting, was given a preliminary hear
ing before Esquire Clark and bound in
a 80, 900 bond, but after a day or two
they gave him up and he is now in jail
at Jonesboro.
One of the sad features about this af-
fair is that both Depew and Isenberg
were to have been married on Christ
mas day. But now all this is changed
one little Ieaden messer-one deadly
bullet, speeding its way, destroyed one
| life and wrecked the lives Of three 9th
ers. Depew, who came to that Christ
mas tree on that fateful evening full Of
life and hope and joyous anticipation'
for The future, is now sleeping the 81
lent sleep Of death; Isenberg now sit'
behind the prison bars awaiting hi
trial for murder, while the two womel
who had hoped soon to be happy brides
are now left deserted forlorn. Mis-
Rash, who was to have married Depew
came to him at once and remained wit
him till the end.
