Justice Court DiSmisseS Complaint Against Geo.
 HenneSSey.

fudge Bucks Court was in ses- sion for a short time Friday forenoon. The case before the court was one in which D. B. Holcomb was the complaining witness alleging that George Hennessey had illegally taken and sold of his (HolcOmb's) horses with a shipment of range horses that was made from HOl- brook July II, 1905.
 Frank Wallace one of the wit nesses for the defendant testified that he had himself sold the horse as Deputy Inspector. The testimony further showed that MT. Hennessey had mailed Mir. H0lcomb a check for the amount that the horse brought, before the buyer, MT. King, had paid for them, but that Mir Holcomh had returned the check. The testimony failed to sustain the charge against Mir. Hennessey and the evidence indicated there was no felonious intent on any one connected with the trans action. The case was dismissed

CANNOT HAUL
OVER BAD ROAD

Continued. from Page One.)
dressing of broken stone on dirt
foundation.
The claim is made by the transport
tation men that while this may be
all right for ordinary hauling and
driving, it will be by no means fit for
such heavy work as will be required.
They say that it will be only a matter
of q few weeks when the road will be
cut. up so badly that it will be almost
impossible to haul the heavy loads of
sand and crushed rock through the
mass of dirt and rocks which will
present itself.
At present there seems to be no way
in which the matter can be solved
easily, but Captain Orwell is looking
over the situation and will arrive at
a conclusion within a few days, The
work on the Diamond Head fortifica-
tions is going along very favorably
and nearly 100 men are employed.
Every man on the work is an Amer
lean citizen, though the laws do not
require this. The idea, as expressed
by Captain Orwell, is that since there
are American citizens here who need
work, they should be given the prefer
ence. 1t is having the result that
number of the Portuguese in the city,
who have not become citizens, are
making their applications and also are
fitting their children for citizenship,
realizing the benefit which they may
derive from this.
