Probably the most bitterly contested case as well as the most interesting to the averaoe court room loafer, was the Herzog vs. Curtis and Swank imbroglie which came up in Justice Ramsey's court last Monday morning The suit was the outcome of a wrangle over an emaciated rat-trap down in Waynetowu, known us the old led elevator, duriug which Dan Curtis hacked Morris with his little hatchet. Herzog was erepresentd by Prosecutor Moflett and A. B. Auderson while Jerre West aud M. E. Clodfelter looked after tho legal interests of Messrs. Curtis aud Swank. The first case called was that of the injured State vs. Curtis aud Swank on the charge of assault aud battery with iutont to chop. Mr. Clod Telter filed a motion for a change of venue »ud the case was sent to Justice Chumasero. The next called was the state vs. Curtis for provoke. This was likewise veuued to Cliuinasero's court. Next cauie tho state vs. Swank for provoke. Another affidavit and the case was sent to Justice McUilliard at Whitesville. Next in order was the state vs. Curtis ror surety of the peace. Clodfelter arose in his might and moved to quash the affidavit because it bad been made before a notary instead or a justice ot the peace. The court held that Ins reasons were insufficient and on 'notion ot Anderson sent the case skylarking to McGilliard at Whitesvillo. Tho next cas«, oiute vs. Swank aud Curtis, for rorcible entry, was the only one that stuck. The entire afternoon was consumed in examining witnesses, and the many petty wrangles among the attorneys kept the court and spectators in gooil spirits. Messrs. Anderson aud Clodfelter were particularly emphatic in their denunciation of each other's knowledge of Blackstone, using language of more torce than eloquence, and were called down by tLe court several times. Tuesday morning at !l o'clock the arguments began. Mr, Moffett opened for the state, ho being followed by West aud Clodfelter for the defense, Anderson closing for the prosecution, fiuishing about 2 o'clock. Justice Raiusey then look the case under advisement and will probably not ntlw a decision before the first of next week.
Company on a Tear.
Co. H, of Waynetowu were slightly "in it" last Sunday. The company drove up from their native village iu tho afternoon in order to take the midnight train witti Co. I, this city, to attend the State encampment at Fort Wayne. These annual outings, with some or the members, are days ot glory and their hilarity is usually proportioned by the monetary savings or months of labor. Having a few hours to spare these hilarious members concluded to begin festitives here. Iu a short time they were alt "bilin' full" and then wauled to buy the town. In the alley back of the old opera house they met an equal number or local toughs who notified the soldier boys that they couldn't get a clear title to the city as they held an over-due mortgage. Over this arose a dispute which soon develoued into a full-Hedged scrap in which the Co. boys were considerably worsted. One of their number, a young man named Casner, let his face come into contact with a Hying brick aud tie was knocked insensible. Several other tights occurred in the evening in which the Co. hoys figured conspicuously. No arrests were made.
