FEDERAL COURT
At OWENSBORO
Will Have anExceptiOnallY
Large Docket.
CONvENES ON NOVEMBER 28
Alleged Night Rider Case from
Christian County is
on Docket.
MANY CASES WILL BE CALLED

With an exceptionally large num-
Der of both criminal and civil cases
on the docket to be disposed or,
Judge Walter Evans will convene
United States court in Owensboro for
the Western Kentucky District term,
November 2S. Although the docket
is one of the largest that has been
had in United States court for sew
eral sessions, 1t is not thought the
court will hold more than the usual
two days session, as most of the
cases are small ones, and will re-
quire but little time.
The case of the Pensacola State
Bank of Pensacola, Florida, against
r. E. Melton and others is on the
court docket, and will probably be
disposed of at this term of court, as
the case has been pending for some
time.
One of the most important cases
to be called TO the attention of the
court is that of j. p. Van Hooser
against A. A. Robinson and others.
The case is the result of Van Hooser
being intimidated until he moved
from his home in Christian county
to Indiana. He asks damages from
several of the most prominent farm
ers of Christian county, alleging that
they are night riders.
