Petrograd, Jan. 2S.-ln a stubborn
fight about Sochaczew on the Bzura
river, the Germans on Tuesday broke
through into the Russian trenches,
from which they were repulsed only

AT dusk our battery was ordered
to take a certain position to check

CAUSE OF LAWSUIT
Circuit Court Occupied Today With
Trial of Morris Against Bernd to
Collect Note

Dolly was lame and afflicted with a
malody known as ringbone, and Kate
was burdencd with a perverse disposi.
tion called "balky," according to the
testimony of w. A. Bernd Of Turner,
who testified in the circuit court this
morning that he gave his note for $50
for the team and attempted to return
them but j. G. Morris refused to take
/ them back Mr.. Morris then instituted
n suit to collect the note for $50 and
the controversy was on which called for
the expert testimony on the value Of
bOlky horses in the circuit court this
morning. Witnesses testified that they
'would not accept the team as gift. 4"
Mr.. Bernd stated on the stand that
Kate was not worth five cents, but he
admitted that Mr.. Morris did not tell
him that it was first.class team.
Mr.. Bernd, it seems, was seeking
cheap team and Mr., Morris sold him
the team in question, with the silence
| that usually accompanies horse trades.
When Attorney Winslow, for the plain.
tiff, questioned Mr.. Bernd about his at.
tempted return Of the team he asked
Mr. Bernd to relate the conversation in
detail. Mr. Bernd said he brought the
team back and Mr.. Morris refused to
take them and return the note.
"What did you say then9" the wit,
ness was asked.
"I didn't say much, " said Mr..
Bernd. He was sitting on my chest, "
The testimony was ruled out as incom.

brought The case will occupy the

verdict will probably be returned this
evening. A. o. Condit and George
