One of our local automobile enthus-
lasts tried to drive his machine through
the side door of a saloon last Saturday
morning, thinking no doubt that it was
Sunday. He missed the door, but
struck an empty beer key, which was
lammed against the building with suf-
ficient force to knock the cash register
off the back bar. 1t is not registering
at the present time. Numerous bottles
of rare old wine of the vintage of
'steen also mingled with the wreck of
the cash register. and emptied their
life blood upon the floor, while the bar
tender who, by the way, has only one
arm, but an excellent pair of legs made
a flying leap over the bar, beating all
records for standing high jumps. The
automobile and its occupants escaped
injury, and the driver, whose name we
will not mention, proceeded on his way
to the brewery. Shullsburg Pick and

Must Return Her Bonds.

Judgment for the plaintiff was rem
dered in Judge Ludwig's court in Mil
waukee last Saturday in the suit of
Annie f. Curry against the Wisconsin
National bank, of that city. for the re-
eovery of bonds amounting to So. 900
given the bank as security for a per-
sonal loan by Phil Allen, Jr., now serv-
ing sentence in the federal prison,
Leavenworth, kas., for defaleations
which caused the failure of the First
National Bank of Mineral Point. Miss
Curry alleged that the bonds were
placed by her in the Mineral Point bank
for safekeeping and were transferred
by Allen without her knowledge or
consent.
This was suit in equity, tried with
out a jury on the 9th Of March last.
after which it was agreed that each
side should file briefs. The plaintiffs
brief cites that on or about Nov. /,
1905, Miss Annie +. Curry bought ten
$500 3qo U. S, Government bonds. and
on that date left them with the First
National Bank of Mineral Point for
safekeeping She took receipt for
same but lost it, and on Feb. 6. 1906.

receipt gave the numbers of the bonds.
Each receipt was upon the stationery
of the bank and signed Phil Allen, Jr.,

About Sept 8 1909, Allen negotiated
by correspondence, a loan of $4,000
from the Wisconsin National Bank. de-
PENDENT, for ninety days. He gave his
personal note therefore and deposited
with the defendent Miss Curry's ten
bonds as collateral Miss Curry had no
knowledge thereof and in no manner
consented thereto.
The defendant, under the direction Of
Allen, credited the amount of his per-
sonal loan to the First National Bank
Of Mineral Point on or about Sept 9.
1909 or about a month before the Min
cral Point institution failed. Such are
the facts in the case, and Attorney T.

the plaintiff, so convincingly presented
the issues involved, that the court
readily decided in her favor.
