JUSTICE CONNOLLY DID NOT
LIKE 8uckLEY,s PLAYFuLNEss
WITH GUN AND HELD. HIM TO
DISTRICT COURT.

The case of the state VS.. John Buck.
ley was on trial yesterday before Jus,
tice Connolly. This is the case where.
in the complaining witness. Kast
claims that Buckley drew a gun on
him.
From the testimony it appears there
had been trouble between. Kast and
Buckley on account of statements
made by Buckley against some mem.
bers of Kast's family, but that Buck.
ley had admitted the statement had
been made and the matter was sup
posed to have been settled. It seems,
however, that later on in the day
Buckley and one Coutert came back
to the Kast place and Coutert amused
himself by shooting at the windmill on
the place. Buckley, however, it is
claimed, went into the house with his
gun, started to put in a shell at the
same time making the cheerful state
ment that he would kill Kast. Out,
siders took the gun away from Buck
ley and thus saved further trouble.
The claim Of the defense was, that the
gun was simply raised in a playful
manner with no intention of hurting
Kast. but Kast was unable to appre-
ciate the joke.
Y After hearing the arguments of coun-
sci, the justice held Buckley to the
next term of the district court. At
