MEDICAL SOCIETY
Of Christian County Held
Meeting Tuesday.

The meeting of the Christian
County Medical Society last Tuesday
was largely attended by the physi-
clans in all sections of the county.
The paper read by DR.. w. D. Hag-
gard on Practical Deductions in
the Diagnosis and Treatment of Ap-
pendical Affections" claimed the
closest attention of the profession.
DR.. D. H. Erkeletian had a strong
paper on :'The Value of the Society
to Physicians of the County"
The session was held in the parlors
of Hotel Latham and was in every
way a highly profitable one.

March American Magazine:

The American Magazine is taking
up the presidential candidates in a
big way.
The other day Secretary Taft told
his managers to keep their hands off
New York State. Rather than an
ger his enemies, and split the state,
he-chose to take his chances and let
Governor Hughes go to the conven-
tion with New York's 72 votes. Of
course Taft is still in the running,
and William Allen White will soon
present a character sketch of him in
the American Magazine. But how
about Hughes? Everybody is IN
quiring. In the March number Ida
M. Tarbell writes of Hughes. She
makes the big lawyer clear to the
reader. One can see how, before he
came into the public eye 1905,) he
was preparing himself. The reader
finds, too, that the Governor has {
mind that captivates the imagination
"a mind that can take up a hare
piece of new work and go through
it as a steel drill goes through rock

PLEADED NOT GUILTY
Eleven Defendants in the Criminal
Cases Pleaded Not Guilty When
Arraigned.

At nine o'clock Tuesday morning,
Judge Smith opened the November
term of court for the fourth judi
cial circuit. The calendar was first
read, the criminal cases being TAX
en- up first. OF the twenty criminal
cases, those against John Brennan,
John johnson and Professor Hart
were dropped, the defendants being
fugitive from justice. Two cases
were continued, and the rest will be
taken up at this session of the court.
Eight i~nformations were filed to one
of which Ed. Willett entered a plea
of guilty on the charge of forgery.
The pleadings to the remainder were
heard in court this morning.
There are 25 civil cases, of which
the cases of Bushnell VS.. Bushnell,
Botsford VS.. B%otsford, City of Mitch
ell VS.. Dock, and City of Mitchell
VS.. Kelley. were dismissed. he
cases Of Palmer & Co. VS.. The Chi
cago, Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway
Company, and Schurman VS.. Kelley,
are in process Of settlement, and will
not be tried. OF the remainder,
seven cases are for the court to
decide; five will necessitate the i'm
panelling of juries, and the rest
will either be continued or motions
heard to that effect.
In the afternoon Ed. Willett, who
had plead guilty to the charge Of
forgery was sentenced to the term
Of six months in the county jail.
The case is one where the young
man passed worthless checks upon
the First National bank. He had
fallen in with evil companions and
had been led astray. In view of sew
eral extenuating circumstances the
judge imposed a minimum sentence.
The case of PARROT VS. Sherman
was then taken up. Parrot is suing
for the price of 4S5 bushels of corr
which he alleges to have sold to

is apparently as to what system of
measuring should be taken in
measuring the corn. The trial was
by jury, and at 5 O'Clock they re-
turned a verdict of $29.S5 for the
plaintiff, the total amount involved.
In court Wednesday the follow
ing entered pleas of not guilty to
the charges that were preferred
against TIM: Henry Austerhause
Albert Walters, Joe Hennessey,
Fred West, Isaac Allison, Otto
Reierson, Frank Cunningham, Elmer
WILDER, Walter Wallace, Bell Hall.
The cas- Of the state against Joe
Henessey al taken up. In this case
the defendant is alleged to have TAX
en- a pocketbook containing a check
from the person of B. v. Wilder,
while on a circus train coming from
Letcher to Mitchell last summer.
The person that took the pocket
book later returned it, but the issue
OF h case seemed to hang upon the
identity of the party that committed
the crime. T. ]. Spangler repre-
sented the state and w. M. Herbert,
the defendant. The jury retired at
IL O'Clock, and af 4 o'clock brought
In a verdict of not guilty.
