WEATHERHEAD WILL APPEAL.

sion for Sale Of Cooney Group.


In the district court last Saturday
the case of John c. Weatherhead
against Mark Cooney was dismissed
by Judge Woods. The action was
brought to recover $4,000 commits
sion for the sale of mining property
near Burke belonging to Mark Coon
ey. The defendant alleged in his

bought the property for $4,000: that
Cooney accepted the benefit of the
PLAINTIFFS services. and that the SER
vices were reasonably worth $4,000.
Judge Woods sustained the defend
ants demurrer to the complaint on
the ground that the plaintiffs au-
thority was not in writing. The case
will be appealed to the supreme
court. Chas. l.. Hoffman Is attorney
for Weatherhead and C. w. Beale is
attorney for Cooney.

Still Owns Violet Shop,

In the French chamber of deputies
the lawyers and doctors are most nu-
merous; but one deputy is veteri-
nary, another is a news agent, another
is a miner. another a comedian, an
other tinsmith, another makes wood
en- shoes, another is confectioner.
Others are professors, and one, who
represents Upper Garonne, is dealer
in violets. Time was-and it is a long
time ago-when he sold those sweet
and modest flowers over the counter in
person. Now, with a modesty equal
to that of the violet, he has withdrawn
himself from so public g position. But
he still owns a shop alongside the Ho-
