The cases were heard in the chamber of commerce rooms with Joseph Felton representing the state. All attracted considerable attention' with about 30 interest ed listeners sitting through both the forenoon nd afternoon hear ings. . In the first case Ine Heater, 47, was the defendant, and Wil liam Andres, the private prosecu tor, claiming Mrs. Heater had taken his traveling bag from his room. Judge Nelson said in dlsmisslnjr the case that in his opinion this should be Ironed out in a civil suit. The second case involved the state versus Don Burr and Wil Ham Dolan, charged with "rob bery by fear and not armed with dangerous .weapon." The com plaint was signed by Lloyd Por ter" who claimed that on April 21 Burr and Dolan got his car away from him by pretending they were federal officers. .Burr and Dolan, representing themselves In court, admitted they had impersonated federal of ficers, but had done so at the re quest of Porter "to clear him with his wife." Theytpld that the three of them had been drinking in town, that Porter had asked that they -drive him home. They claimed they had asked Porter if they could borrow his car to come back into 'town. Porter had, con sented, both Burr and Dolan said. Porter admitted he had been drinking but did not recall telling them they could use the car. In dismissing the case Nelson warned the defendants against imperson ating officers. The case of Lyman Dellutt, charged with forgery preferred by Frank Bell of Labish, was dis missed upon payment of court costs. It was explained that De Hutt had used another man's name on a receipt, and the case was not one of forgery. The case of Edward Carter charged with threatening to com mit a felony, was also dismissed. The charge was signed by Robert Fornier. The case signed by Mrs. Porter, charging Lloyd Porter with non support was continued for 30 days. Porter was released -on his own recognizance. . Returns To Speak i - y- . ':.- r I FLOWER A.
