I J. C. Doyle pleaded guilty in the Circuit Court to the charge of forgery and was sentenced by Judge McBridej to serve two years in the peniten-1 tiary. Not true bills were submitted by the grand jury in the cases of J. W. Potter, John Hepler, and Charles Harnack. These were cases where the farmers were charged with set v tiiig out fires in slashings without MOEHNKE LOSES SUIT havi,,g first obtained a license. The penalty is severe, the minimum fine being $100, and as the law only be came operative last year, it is very evident that the grand jury took a lenient view of the matter and did not indict the accused. Two true bills ' were returned against T. M. Allison, of Boring, for selling liquor without a license in less quantities than one gallon. The indictment alleges that he sold liquor to Harry Trembath August 23, 1905, and to Solomon J. Garrison August Judge McBride in the first day of 27, 1005. These officers laid a trap the regular November term of the for Allison and he fell into it. Circuit Court Monday disposed of Judge McBride made the following considerable routinebusiness and or- orders: dered a grand jury drawn. Its mem- J. Everhart & Co. v. James W. Cur- ran, dismissed.

Zineer Judge McBride instructed the jury to look Into the gambling cases, and also the alleged violations of the liquor law. lhe court rendered a decision in the suit of John A. Moehnke v. W. P.

River, induced Moehnke to buy 40 acres of land, and made an agree ment to secure the water rights, pay ing $75 therefor, while Moehnke paid $225 for the land.' The deed was made in Moehnke's favor, and Haw ley claimed that the plaintiff would not convey the rights. To settle mat ters Hawley bought back the land from Moehnke at an advance of $26. Mr. "Moehnke set ud the claim that Hawlev had represented that the tim ber had been burned off the land by forest fires, and because of such rep resentation he sold the property to Hawley for less than it was worth. Mrs. Moehnke refused to sign the transfer and Moehnke brought suit to set aside the deed. The court held that there was no fraud or misrepresentation on the part of Hawley in the purchase of the land, and that so far as the plaintiff was concerned, he had made a com plete transfer of the property to the defendant, and that the disinclination of the plaintiff's wife to join in the conveyance was not sufficient to set aside the sale, especially after Moehnke had signed the deed and had received $100 of the purchase price. Priscilla McKenney and Lillian Bell Sparks have won their action for ejectment against Nancy Anderson in the Circuit Court. In April. 1901. Almeda Anderson died in this county, leaving a farm on Deep Creek, valued at $3,000. She eft a will without naming an execu tor, and this in will devised her prop erty to the plaintiffs. Her husband, James Anderson, about six months after the death of his wife, married the defendant, and upon his own ap plication was appointed executor of the will. During his administration f the estate the orooerty was sold to the defendant, and about oneand one half years ago action was instituted by the plaintiffs for possession, they alleging that they were the owners of the land by virtue of the will, and that there had never been an adminis tration of the estate, for the reason that the appointment of the executor, where none was named in the will, was void, and as there had been no administration, there could be tio sale and Nancy Anderson had no interest in the property. The defense was that James Ander son held the property1 as a tenant by courtesy. The court held that there was a preponderance of evidence to how that James Anderson was in md defendant allowed until Novem ber 15 to answer. Charles Newcomb v. Lillie New comb, divorce; decree.
