Shubert V. Jacobsqaard

The action of Charles ShUbert against M Jacobsgaard for restitution of personal prop erty and damages, was on trial before Judge Fuller and a jury in the district court Thursday afternoon, and resulted in yer dict of S75 and costs for the plaintiff
 This case was the outcome of proceed ings in the commissioners court last win ter, by which Shubert acquaired possession of personal property, consisting of furnish ings and equipment of the Emergency hos pital, through judgment for wages due and marshals sale of the effects. IT property was afterwards leased by Shut 4rt to ,Ia cobsgaard, and the alleged fail Ire of the defendant to either pay the rental or re store the property was the grounds for the suit.
 Attorney E. M Stanton, representing the defendant objected to the introduction of testimony on the ground that ownership of the property in question had not been al leged in the complaint, but the objection was overruled by the court.
 The only witnesses called were the two prncir als The plaintiff testified to leasing the property to the defendant, and the lease was put in evidence. It contained clause providing that the property should be re- turned to the plaintiff on demand. On the failure cf the defendant to pay the rental he state1 ha hal Gcn1ndad rH..'rn of the property which had been refused.
 Jacobsgaard the defendant, testified that he had leased the property merely for the sake of keeping the hospital open, agreeing to pay the first months rent, and that eth CTS in similar ch&fitable spirit, agreed to pay for succeeding months. He had no personal interest in the matter, he said. He testified that upon the demand being made for the restitution of the property he had agreed to comply when a list of the articles had been furnished him, but that he ob jected to the plaintiff and his attorney en- terng the premises for the purpose of de termining what was and what was not Shu- berts property On cross s-examination he natly contradcted Attorney J. C. Moody, representing the plaintiff, and on more than one occasion seemed on the verge oG using the short and ugly word that would have nominated Mr Moody for membership in the Ananias Club, but look of astonlsh- ment and rcproval from Judge Fuller re strained him. He was an altogether exas- perating witness, and the Little Giant" seemed to be thoroughly dissusted.
 In his argument to the jury MT. Moody made light of 'Jakey's' claims as phi lanthropist and intimaed that he was en- deavorng to cover up an negotiable act of third person,
 The jury was composed of the following
 The jury was composed of Charles Ross Louis Erickson Peter Robin, Oscar Gard ner, Chester Riley, Cyril ?. Wood, George Mullmeyer, Frank Snyder, W. r. Duffy, w. W. Nelson and Donald Mcdonald.
