AT COURT HOUSE.

The May term of the Superior Court closed on Tuesday afternoon of this week. The cases tried were disposed of as eXpeditiouSly as possible, and still with all due justice.

In the case of Rosendo Serrano, indicted for as sault with a deadly weapon, the jury found him not guilty, and he was dis charged. The case of Epifano Ortiz, charged with grand larceny, was tried and the defendant was found guilty.
 On Tuesday Carlso Jaramillo, charg ed with grand larceny, changed his plea of not guilty to guilty. Two ca SeS against EpifanO Ortiz and Car los Jaramillo, charged with grand lar ceny, were discharged from custody. In the case of Primitive Loya, chary ed with grand larceny, the jury failed to reach an agreement and were dis missed by the court, the defendant be- ing released upon a $500. % bond. On the afternoon of this day court ad- journed and Judge F. B. Laine set Wednesday morning as the time sen tence would be passed LIDO the cases tried and found guilty.
