SUPREME COURT DECISION
FAVORS SHERIFF OWENS

The supreme court at Carson has
handed down a decision in the case
of Hoffman versus j.. j.. Owens,
sheriff of this county. The case in
volved the sale of certain personal
property, consisting of wines,
liquors, saloon fixtures, etc, which
were taken in an attachment sui.
Action was brought IN replevin to
recover their possession. The point
involved was whether the sale was
good under the statute OF frauds,
it being contended by appellant that
there was not such a delivery and
immediate change of possession as
to make the sale valid as against
the creditor of the vendor.
The district court Of this district
held that the sale was valid under
the facts. and the judgment was az
frmed in the decision Of the su
preme court.

Elsie Staeble, who had been
stopping with Mrs, Sim since her
mother was removed to the hos

the home Of another friend.
The police. while admitting that
Mrs. Sim was arrested III connection
with the mysterious Staehle case,
stated last night that there was alb
solutely no evidence which connects
the woman in any way with thu

According to the story Elsie

to aid in the care Of the injured
