DISTRICT COURT NOTES.

The case of Crane & Ordway COM
pany VS.. Effie Rothman ct al, to re-
cover the sum Of $475, represented by
a mechanics lien for plumbing work
and fixtures furnished by Elmer john
son in the construction Of addition to
Northern hotel at Hinsdale, which lien
had been assigned to the plaintiff, and
in which suit counterclaim for de-
fective work and materials was inter-
posed by the defendant, went to the
jury Saturday morning last who re-
turned verdict in favor of the plain
tiff in the sum of $380SO, which with
interest amounted in all to $413.82.
The defendant thereupon requested
and was granted sixty days in which
to prepare bill of exceptions and move
for new trial, and the plaintiff, on
request, was granted ten days in which
to prepare request for findings and
conclusions in respect to the other de-
fendant, the Western Loan & Build
ing company, which has mortgage
on the property and claims priority
over the lien, question of law for
the court to determine.
On the same day, in the case of the
state VS.. Michael Wrritzaga, charged
with assault in the first degree, the
defendant entered a plea Of assault
in the third degree, the state consent
ing thereto, and the court imposed a
fine of one hundred dollars, which
was paid.
A jury was then impaneled to try
the case of the state VS.. John Gaul-
ey charged with vagrancy, which was
concluded in the afternoon, the jury
bringing in a verdict Of guilty and
fixing his punishment at the limit Of
ninety days in the county Jail. Sen
tence was thereupon imposed by thu
court and the defendant remanded te
the custody of the sheriff. In this
case the defendant appealed from the
judgment and sentence of thirty day:
given in a justice court.
On Monday, the 18th, the case o1
the state of Montana VS.. M. o. Duffy
charged with gambling in the town Of
Opheim, came on for trial, and the
jury found the defendant guilty and
brought in a verdict against him ir
the sum of $4OO. The defendant
through his counsel, served notice Of
appeal.
But one witness was examined on
behalf of the state, another witness
Sig Johnson, having failed to respond
to the subpoena and on motion and af-
fidavit of the county attorney an at
tachment was issued commanding the
sheriff to arrest and bring him into
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1919-02-21

court on the afternoon Of Tuesday to
show cause why he should not be ad
judged in contempt of court. Upon
being brought into court, and after
having heard his statement, wherein
he represented that he had been sick,
and having also heard the statement
of the county attorney and deputy
sheriff Beebe of Opheim concerning
his case, the court intimated that there
was some doubt as to the accused in
tentions to disobey the subpoena, and
reprimanded him severely for not in
forming the court sooner, and init
mated that the fact that the case had
been proceeded with satisfactorily
without his presence was circum-
stance in his favor, but ordered the
clerk of the court to withhold his wit
ness fees, dismissed the writ Of at
tachment and informed the accused
that had the courts mind been free
of doubt as to any wrongful intention,
he would have imposed heavy fine.
Sitting up and taking notice
when the jury brought in its verdict
against the defendant Duffy were
John H. Fuller and Charles Miller,
against each of whom an information
had been filed likewise charging them
with gambling, to which they had
heretofore pleaded not guilty and
whose cases were to come on for trial
the following day, Tuesday. The ver-
dict in the Duffy case evidently had
salutary effect, for on Tuesday
morning, when their cases were call
ed, each withdrew his plea of not
guilty and entered plea of guilty.
Later in the day the court sentenced
them to fine of $3.50 each.
On Monday X. Koppang, against
whom an information had been filed
for gambling, but who had not pre-
viously been arraigned, entered HIS
plea of not guilty. The defendant
is under bond for $500 to appear for
trial at the next trem OF court.
With the entering of the plea of
guilty on the part of Fuller and Mil
ler the jury term came to an end, and
the judge having expressed his ap-
probation and thanks to the jurors for
their diligence and attention, they were
excused finally. Oscar S. Cutting,
acting as paymaster, sent them home
feeling happy.
During the term the county attor-
ney has secured conviction in every
case but one, the state VS.. Baker, in
which the defendant was acquitted,
and in the alleged cattle stealing case
of the state VS.. C. l.. Bronson the
! jury d:aagreed and retrial of the case
will be had at the next term Of court.

FIRE IN BASEMENT OF
CHURCH NOT SERIOUS

On Monday morning dense smoke
was seen coming from the basement
of the Congregational church by par
ties passing along the street, and
after forcing the door, the smoke was
so thick it was impossible to locate
the fire. An alarm was sent in and
the fire department was soon on the
scene, and after clearing the atmos-
phere it was found that barrel was
slowly smouldering away near the
furnace. The force of the water was
somewhat damaging to the furnace,
nevertheless it will be easily mended,
and is considered of little Importance
when compared to what might have
been the result.
