much to discredit the witnesses whom both he

For DR. Cook tells us that he enjOined the Es-

any of his party what had been achieved, and
that consequently they gave "evasive replies
to their questioners. Bluntly stated. DIR. Cook

of the works to be done in each of the nine

J. BoGER FILES ACTION FOR
$4,000 DAMAGES AGAINST
MARSHAL SLocUM,
ECHO OF OLD CASE
IN JUSTICE COURT
Plaintiff Alleges That Town Marshal
Had Personal Motives in Acting in
Melbourne Hotel case-Boaer Also
Wants $50 For Living Expenses in
Addition to Damages.

A petition has been filed for the dis
trlct court by j. Boyer against Will
liam Slocum, demanding judgment in
the sum of $4,000, with interest and
costs from July 8, 1909, to this time,
and also asking for an additional $50
to cover the living expenses of plaintiff
since July 8.
The suit grows out of case threshed
over in the justice courts here some
weeks ago, one result of which was
that Boyer spent limited time in the
county Jail. In his petition Boyer al
leges that he has for the past five years
owned and still owns the Melbourne
hotel, which he claims to have operated
as first-class hosiery until dispos-
sessed by Slocum early in July. He
sets forth that on account of defend
ants wrongful acts he (Boger) has
been deprived of his home, personal
property and business, at a loss to him
of not less than SIS per day. He alleges
that defendants acts, in threatening
and warning him to leave his own
premises, altho performed under color
of office, We're wilful, malicious,
wholly without authority and done with
the intent to humiliate and damage
Boyer, on account of personal hatred
and dislike, all of which, it is alleged,
has resulted in $1,000 damage to the
plaintiff.
Slocun, the defendant in this action,
is town marshal of Melbourne and was
acting in that capacity when the trou-
BILE started.
