Charles E. Sutton of Douglass coun-
ty advertised a sale of pedigreed hogs
and in the catalogue mentioned the
sire of one animal. w. J. GriSt pur-
chased that animal then discovered
there was a mistake in the catalogue
and that the sire of the hog he had
purchased was less desirable than the
one advertised in the catalogue. He
return of his money. Sutton proved
that the auctioneer had announced
that there was a mistake in the cata-
logue when he put the animal up for
sale. Grist declared if such an an
nouncement was made he did not
hear it. The lower court found for
Sutton and Grist appealed on error.
The supreme court holds it can find
no error and affirms the decision of
the lower court.
The evidence given by a. witness in
q prosecution of a jointkeeper holds
good even in the face of the attempt
of the defendant to prove that the wit
ness was drunk at the time he secured
his evidence. The supreme court af-
f1rmed q decision of the district court
of Sedgwick county in the appeal of
L. Jennings, a convicted JointiSt. Jen-
nings based his appeal on the propo-
sition that the prosecuting witness was
drunk. He wanted to recall him at
the trial Of the case and prove this
fact by cross examination but the trial
court would not let him do so, holding
that the condition of the witness at
the time he secured the evidence had
no particular bearing on the case.
In affirming an appeal from Neosho
county aginst the Santa F'e railway
the supreme court held that a verdict
for $4,000 for the loss of a leg was
not excessive. Jay Lupher, a brake
man, had his leg cut off while work
ing a switch in the Santa F'e yards in
Neosho county. He asked for ST.
600 damages and the lower court
gave him $4,000. In affirming the
decision of the lower court the su-
preme court held that there was moth
ing in the evidence showing that the
Judgment was excessive, due to pas
sion or prejudice of the jury.

Suit to Recover Colorado Lands.

Denver-By a suit filed in the Fed

Company, the Victor Fuel Compa-
ny, the Knickerbocker Trust Company
of New York. with the Guaranty Trust
Company are made the defendants in
an action to recover coal lands in Las
Animas county valued at many thou
sands of dollars.
The government in its petition to
have the patents cancelled, charges
that all of the lands in the Pueblo
land district mentioned in the COM
plant were obtained by the various
defendants by fraudulent means. 1t
is stated specifically that the patents
to the land were granted by the pre-
sentation of affidavits stating that the
land was non-mineral when 1t was
known that deposits of coal lay be-
meath the land.
United States Attorney General
Wickersham, United States District
Attorney Kelly, and Special Investiga-
tor E. B. Lacy signed the petition to
recover the lands.
This suit is one of a long chain of
similar actions being started over the
entire West by the government in an
attempt to regain lands appropriated
under fraudulent entries by coal and
mining companies. In Colorado there
are several similar suits awaiting the
