THE CASE DISMISSED.
Criminal Prosecution Against Mrs.
Minnesota Shock Dismissed
BY Judge Sweeney
An Appeal
Taken.

This morning Mrs. Minnesota Shock
was arraigned before Justice sweeney
for a preliminary hearing on the
charge of grand larceny preferred
against her by J. A. Corn. The Grim
inal case followed a civil suit. Mrs.
Shock had made a cantract to pur-
chase the Southern hotel from Mr..
Corn on the installment plan. There
was a verbal agreement that the fur
niture should go with the house. II
seems Mrs. Shock occupied the house
for about a year, did not live up to
the contract and Mr.. Corn again took
possession. He claimed that some of
the furniture was missing and the
charge of larceny followed.
The prosecution was handled by
Attorney Greer, appearing for the dep
uty district attorney while Wheeler
and Weiser represented the defend
ant. After the prosecution had pre-
sented its evidence and rested its
case a motion was made by Attor-
ney Wheeler to non-suit the case on
certain grounds involving technical
tiles in complaint. This afternoon the
motion was sustained by the court
and the case dismissed. An appeal
will be taken by Mr.. Corn to the
county court.

LINCOLN, June So-CSpecisl. 1.-The price
charged consumers for ice is out OF all
proportion to the value OF ice as returned
by the county assessors. According to the
ice man this little household necessity is
worth not less than $40 ton. According
TO the assessor in Deuel. county, ice out
there is worth 90 cents a ton, while In
Howard county II is worth s. a ton, the
highest price placed upon this commodity
by any assessor. OF the other counties
reporting to the State Board of Equaliza-
ton, Kearney is the highest it's assessor
placing the assessed value at o. cents a
ton, while in the other counties prices
range from l6 to a cents ton assessed
values.
Last year the total Ice crop In Nebraska
was assessed at $S6.441, or an actual value
OF N1z4o This year this valuation bids
fair TO be greatly IN excess of that amount
Just why there should be such a dis
crepancy between the market value and
the assessed value the members of the
state board have not been able TO figure out
and inasmuch as the board has the author
ity to raise any class of property, the ice
crop may come in for a boost when the
board meets providing II IL not all melted
by that time.
OF the counties reporting so far, Thomas
county carries of tho banner having not
one single ton of ice within it's border, an
Indication that the prohibitlonists are doing
some work in that county. Mcpherson
county has only two tons, and notwith-
standing the scarcity It is only worth 81
ton. Dodge and Hall counties are better
fixed, the former having on hand 1857 tons
of ice and the latter 1886 tons In Dodge
county, however. ice is only worth 16 cents
a ton, according to the assessor, while in
Hall county It IL worth 20 cents a ton.
