Ar,hur Dennis who has been Mt liberty

by Judge Mower in city court Friday
because of lack OF evidence against
him.
The case against Dennis grew out Of
the entry to tho Durfey home by some
man on the night of November 13. when
Miss Durfey and her cousin, Mrs
Purinton, had struggle with the
intruder. and the burglar, whoever he
was, plunged headlong through a window
and rolled log-fashion down roof and
dropped to the ground Dennis was ar

Purnton'S statement. the States attor-

burglary charge. S. r. Moulton appeared
for Dennis, with j. j. Enright as counsel.
Dennis's attorneys put In no defense and
the respondent was discharged on motion
of Attorney Enright after the State had

Attorney Shaw prosecuted the case.
The testimony disclosed that whoever

Charles Cross. r. n. Deavitt appeared
for Foster and states Attorney Shaw
conducted the prosecution.
1t was claimed In the testimony that
Foster called at the Cross home in the
absence of Mr.. Cross and asked to
borrow an axe. Mrs. Foster declined to
lend the axe because her husband had
given orders that nothing was to be
loaned. Foster returned later with a
sharp axo and offered to exchange it for
the Cross axe Again Mrs. Cross de-
clned and high words followed, during
which Mrs. Cross took aim at Foster
with broom handle and smashed the
handle into bits on something, she
couldn't say whether it was the door or
Fosters shoulders. Foster is alleged
to have lifted his axe and to have made
threats Two of the Cross children
testified with various degrees Of GER
tainty as to the occurrence. Foster
denied that he made any hostile demon
straton and claimed he had permission
from Mr.. Cross to borrow the axe.
