time the case to the next term Of
the Common Pleas Court in February.
Four persons were exchanging words
at the same time: the attorneys argu-
ing over the testiony of the witness
the witness on the stand continually
relating what he knew Of the case and
the Judge attempting to act as peace
maker between the attorneys When
the latter's pacifying efforts showed
no effects he continued the case to
the next term of court.
The argument arose over the testi-
mony given by Lee Hunter in his
suit against Murray Phillips for the
recovery of some notes. The suit was
brought here from New Madrid coun-
ty ON change of venue. Hunter ac-
cording to his testimony he was able
to sandwich between the wrangling Of
the attorneys, has sold some land to
Phillips, retaining certain rights to
the property, but could not explain
the nature of these because the attor-
neys were too busily engaged in legal
arguments.
Hunters attorney was originally j.
K. Brewer. but on account of illness
he was unable to represent his client
and asked Senator Oliver to repre-
sent Hunter in the trial. When Hunter
was called to the stand and began his
testimony Attorney Gallivan objected
to certain points brought out in the
testimony and the wrangle started.
Judge Snider admonished the law
yers to quit, be peaceable and settle
their arguments after they mad pre-
sented their case. His words appar-
emily merely served as a stimulus for
a more heated argument and finally he
announced that the cage was continued
by the court to the February term.

The Puppy That Hatehed.

AS I was hurrying recently to catch
a train l caught sight of litter of
puppies in a window with For Sale"
sign above them. Knowing my young
brother was crazy to have a dog, l
went In and bought small fox ter
rier, having him placed in basket.
As the conductor came through he &C
cidentally kicked the basket. and to
prevent more trouble l placed 1t IN
der the seat, with the remark that it
contained fresh eggs, believing l might
have to take the animal to the baggage
car if the conductor knew what the
basket contained.
In the middle Of the night the con-
ductor awakened me. "Guess your
eggs Matched overnight. SIR" he said.
The dog had got his feet through
the holes of the basket and walked
down the center aisle of the train with
the basket still around him.-Ex-
