was the wrong man. The robbers
were strangers, and made no furth
er attempt at concealment than hav
ing their hats pulled low on their

evidently a novice for he showed

The case of 8 tale vs Thomas
Haines was yesterday tried by a
jury for the second time. About
midnight the jury brought In a ver
diet of acquittal. This was Haines'
second trial, the first jury having
disagreed. Ihe trial waa held in
the circuit court room, Judge W
1). Smith presiding. Hon. T. H.
Tongue waa for the defense, and
Frank Klinem. n assisted deputy
If. T. liagley in the prosecution.
During the examination of witness
Kev. C. Crow, an Kvangelical min
isler, Congressman Tongue made a
remark to 11. T. Itagley that he
might auk any question that he
liked as the court had ruled that he
might ask that (referring toa ques
tion over which objection had been
made) or any other question. The
court reminded Mr. Tongue that he
had made no such ruling, and that
if he were not careful he would fine
him (or contempt. Mi. Tongue re
plied, "this court can start in with
an action of that kind whenever he
sees fit." Judge Smith thereupon
lined him $10, and in default to he
imprisoned b days. The fine was
not paid and a commitment was
issued. It uptwart that Constable
Redmond would not serve the com
mitment and he was lined $25. As
the commitment was in clerical er
ror this latter fine was remitted.
Deputy Sheriff Deichman was then
sent for and given the commitment.
Mr. Tongue immediately procured
from Judge Roud a stay of commit
ment until a review of proceedings
could be heard. It seems that the
word ' court" appeared in the com
mitment papers, where "jail" khculd
have leen written. Court then ad
journed until after dinner, when
the case again went to tria..

Horsemen qre reporting a new
disease going the rounds amongst
horses, called gangrenous dermati
tis. It is reported that one horse
on the North Plains was infected,
but p'otupt treatment effected a
cure. It seems the disease first at
tacks the horse where the hair and
hoof unite and from that "oint it
continues to spread. If mt treated
at the very first, the case can not
be cured. The disease is in the
nature of an inflammation, gan
grenous mortification setting in -hence
its name. Virtually, it re
solves itself into blood poisoning.
It is hold by many veteriuaiians to
be not contagious, but Dr. F. A.
Itailey, of this city, thinks It highly
infectious, as he is of the opinion
