COURT MUST DECIDE WHO GETS
 COIN TAKEN IN GAMBLING DEN

True, Haegger had said he had lost S1S5 of it in a game, but even that amount the sheriff couldn't figure belonged to him any longer.
 ''Im not taking any chances of having to pay it back to the court out of my own salary of $40 a week." said the sheriff.
 The Orin Moore, whom Eaegger's S attorney filed on behalf of Haesser to force the sheriff to give over the money. This was time number one for the sheriff to serve papers upon himself to make answer to the ale gation.
 The Orin Moore, whom Hagger said in court was running the game" call ed the sheriff into quiet corner and suggested that he be given the money. Another refusal and another suit.
 Later w. F. Keith, proprietor of the pool hall, whose innocent looking tables covered with their Sabbath dressings concealed more interesting tables in the sidewalk casino, made a visit to the sheriff.
 over that money? That was house said.
 But Keith had told the court that it was money he had exchanged with Moore for currency in place of the bulky silver that had been collected l. as he said, Tn Saturday nights pool games"
 There's too many of you birds claiming this coin, and if any of you get it, it'll be because you tell it to the judge. Good-by."
 And so Keith sued the sheriff.

Sheridan, Wyo., July 31.-Serving papers upon himself is getting to be a daily task of Sheriff .'Dolph'' Thom- as, of Sheridan County, and he says he wonders where it all will end, for no less than three times in as many days he has had to serve papers upon himself to make answer to cases filed against him in the District Court.
 And all because one stormy Sunday evening last December when most of Sheridan was at church, Otto Haeg- ger is alleged to have robbed the Pal ace Pool Hall of S499.02 in silver, S185 of which he said he had lost earlier in the evening.
 Haegger was taken before a jury in the District Court and admitted robbing the game, which he said was being conducted in a specially built casino beneath Main streets sidewalk within a block of the police station.
 The jury decided that honesty is the best policy and after deliberating ten minutes upon Haegger's candid story
 With a verdict of mot guilty Haegger's attorney said that if he did mt steal it, the only logical thing to do was to secure the money for Haeg- ger.
 Sheriff Thomas, with whom the money had been entrusted when Haegger was arrested, didn't get at the idea of giving to Haegger the the lawyers line of talk and baked money. after Haegger had told the court he stole it, even though a jury of twelve representative men had ac- quilted him of the charge.
