NO CRIMINAL CASES
FOR DISTRICT COURT

When Van Ross appeared before the
district court last week and pleaded
guilty to the charge of grand larceny,
he cleared the docket of that court
of all criminal cases for the next term
which meets on the 2sth q this month.
The fact Is one quite unusual in this
court and also one which Is pleasing
to Judge Taber and District Attorney
Carville as criminal cases of that kind
are usually hard cases to handle and
are wearing on all concerned.
There are several civil cases to come
up which will be tried by juries.
