unnecessary distress at the Smith

.DONOHOE IS
FINED $4,000
Jury Returns Verdict This Morning
After Being Out Over Twenty
five Hours

nve hours
The Jury in the case of the State
of Iowa VS. Jake Donohoe, of Anita,
who was tried in the Audubon county
District Court on a charge of rape,
brought in verdict this morning of
guilty of assault" The Judge fined
Mr.. Donohoe 500, and the costs of
the trial have been assessed against
him.
This case was brought in the Dec
ember term of District court of Aud
ubon county, but was continued un-
til the February term. A motion
was made last week to have the trial
continued, but the judge refused to
grant the request.
On last Thursday the case was
commenced and it was late in the
cured. Many witnesses had been
called to testify on both sides. A
great many witnesses were examined
the balance of the week and this con-
tinued up until late Tuesday evening.
Wednesday morning the judge read
his instructions to the jury. After
being out over 25 hours, laboring on
the case all last night, the jury re-
turned the above verdict. This is
punishable by fine of 500 or 80
days in Jail. The Judge later passed
sentence by imposing the 500 fine
which has been paid.
This brings to close one of the
worst cases that has been tried in
open court in this county. The case
grew out of the report that last July
two girls of this vicinity had been
raped at Extra while attending the cell
ebration of our nations Independence.
Jake Donohoe was arrested as one of
the parties. Another party suspect
ed of committing similar crime
made his escape from the country and
has not been heard from since.
The court room was crowded al
most every day throughout the trial
and mich testimony was brought out
that should have been taken behind
closed doors. Why people should de-
sire to hear this filthy class of testi-
mony is beyond comprehension, but
people in this county are not unlike
other folks, and, as is always the case
the court room is filed to full capac-
ity whenever there is the least pos
sibility of chance to hear sensation
al testimony.
We know nothing fthe merits or
dement's of the case. The State
and the defendant both had
the best of legal talent. Every inch
of the way was hard fought. Twelve
of the best men of Audubon
county carefully considered the
testimony and in their judgement, as
signified by their verdict, they did not
believe the defendant was guilty OF
the crime charged in the indictment.
He did however doe some indiscreet
and ungeltlemanly acts and for this
he has been fined.
/ We doubt If the other case will be
pushed or IL any attempt will be made
to apprehend the party who was
charged with being guilty of the same
crime.

NOW HAS FULL CHARGE

Peter Jensen who early last fall
purchased the garage and automobile
business from A. 4. Beason, took
complete charge of his business yes
terday. He win have associated
with him his three sons. all of whom
are hustlers and mechanics of ex-
ceptional ability. His son Henry
has been in Omaha taking some spe-
cial work and is expected to return
home this week. We welcome Mr..
Jensen and his family to Audubon
and bespeak for him a continuance of
the splendid business his predecessor
enjoyed. They are located in the
residence property of Fred Bartlett
where the family will reside until Mr..
Jensen can purchase property suit
able to his needs.

TRYING THE LAST CASE

The case of Nels p. Andersen VS.
MAIDS Hansen now attracting the at
tention ofthe District court will prob
ably be the last jury case to be tried
at this term of court. This is another
calf case and the ownership of five
head of calves is the basis of the suit,
Many witnesses have been summoned
and it is expected that the examina-
lions will not be completed until late
this afternoon. The judge announced
that this would be the last jury case.
1t is quite probable that some probate
matters will be disposed of before
court is finally adjourned
A number of cases docketed have
been settled out of court and others
have been continued.
