of a party banting for the remains out of

Mr. Bucknum left the camp he had on a
shirt and sweater besides his other
clothes, but no coat. Mr. Bucknum was
insured in the Woodmen for $3,000 and
in the Artizans for $2,000, and on this
account particularly it is desired to find
his body, aa well as on account of friend

From the Statesman :
Judge R. P. Boise, of department No.
2, Marion county circuit court, handed
down two decisions Saturday, namely :
In the Bush-Kluin suit and in the Sim
mons estate.
In the Bush-Klein case the court finds
judgment for the plaintiff for $3,600, but
decides that the plaintiff cannot place a
lien on the lot owned by one of the de
fendants Ann Klein.
The tide of the case was: A. Bosh .do
ing business under the firm name and
style of Ladd & Bush, plaintiff, vs. An
thony Klein aud Ann Klein, his wife-and
the Pendleton Shoe Company, defend
ants. The court found as conclusions of law
as follows :
"1st. Thaf the said defendants is in
debted to the plaintiff in the said sum of
$3,500, and that plaintiff is entitled to a
decree therefor against tne defendant,
Anthony Klein, and for the costs and
disbursements of the action.
"2nd. That the plaintiff is not entitled
to have said sum made a lien on said lot
owned by the defendant, Ann Klein, and
that the complaint should be dismissed
as to her.
"Wherefore it is ordered and decreed
by the court that the plaintiff, A. Bush,
doing business under the firm name of
Ladd & Bush, have and recover of and
from the said defendant, Anthony Klein,
the sum of $3,600 and interest tkereon
from the date of decree and the costs and
disbursements of this suit, to be taxed,
and that he have execution therefor; and
it is further ordered and decreed that
the complaint herein be dismissed as to
said defendant, Ann Klein."
