Dmdmger, Wil son & Company Good SHOES CHEAP Phone Main il&i FOUND FOR THE DEFENSE. Let the Law Decide, Since the Evi dence Failed to. The case of J. G. Meyers vs. Mary English for the possession of one colt of Indeterminate age lias nt last come to an end as far sir the justice court Is concerned, and the parties are still not satisfied. At a late hour yester day afternoon the last of the wit nesses was examined and the case submitted to the judgment of the court. After sonic thought the judge handed down his opinion. lie held that the testimony was a standoff, and from It nothing could be gleaned of a definite character. He did not l;now the age of the horse, the num ber of Its teeth, Its weight, or Its owner, and he hoped he nover would. The testimony was conflicting and in determinate, and in view of all the circumstances and In accordance with the law as made and provided for such contingencies, he would find for the defense, and would award to them the costs and disbursements of the action and the possession of the colt, now doubly valuable. The horse Is worth about $20, and the costs of the stilt will aggregate about $125, so that to the plaintiff It represents a value of about $150. In view of this circumstance it is hard for him to lose, and he is thinking of taking an appeal and carrying the matter to the circuit court. Merchants' Lunch.
