THE DOCKET.
Thirty.Six Names on Panel Of Trial
Jurors-Three New Criminal Gases
We're Added Monday and Probably
Will Be Heard at Present Term.

1t Is the opinion of members Of the
bar that the term of court opened by
Judge Woods Monday morning will be
brief, owing to the fact that there are
fewer cases than usual on the docket
and the most of these are expected to
consume little time in being disposed
of. Several of those recently de-
manding the attention of the officials
will be included, in all probability;
among them is the case against Frank
Wilson, the North Fork rancher who
Is charged with assault with intent to
kill His alleged victim Is John Kah-
ru, n neighbor who attempted TO in
terfere in quarrel between young
Wilson and the latter's father, and
was badly cut by knife which tho
defendant is said to have welded.
When ararigned Monday morning,
Wilson stated that he had no attor.
ney, but thought his father would as
sist him In securing lawyer. He
was given until Tuesday morning to

their safe while employed as swamper.i
stated that he was without funds and
the court appointed an attorney to
represent him.
Rowe Guy, young man brought up
from Kellogg following his arrest on
the charge of getting goods under false
pretenses, was also given lawyers

claiming TO be without funds. Guy is
said to have purchased suit Of
clothes and other articles Of clothing
from the Hadley Clothing company in
Kellogg, giving in payment an order
for the full amount, $34, on the Fed
eral Mining d Smelling company,
when he had no money coming to him
from that company.
f. Bari, an easterner who Is said to
have taken gold watch, chain charm
and ring, all valued at about $50 from
the home of c. f. Overholt Of Mace,
with whom he was visiting, will prob
ably stand trial during the present

State Bank Cases on Docket.
The calender contains the cases Of
the state against e. s. Wyman, for
mer cashier Of the State Bank Of
Commerce, former Director G. Scott
Anderson and w. Q. Pierce The last
named, at any rate, will probably be
reached. Pierce was the first receiver
of the bank after its doors were clos
ed in May. 1911. He is accused Of ap-
to his own use the funds
of the institution. and his defense, II
is said. will consist of showing that
he was placed in an embarrassing
predlcament through series of un-
fortunate circumstances which do not
show wrong intent. This case was set
for hearing at the fall term of court,
but was postponed on account of the
.ts,r, xl,,Ni t,,
O'Neil trials.
The charges against Wyman and
Anderson are similar to those upon
which former President O'Neil was
tried. and are i'm connection with the
making of the false reports
