lire, leaving the house unguarded. The
theft was not discovered by tha family
until late Tuesday night.
Thieves also entered, the residence of J.
J. McCluggage, an express messenger liv
ing at 1401 Third street, but were frightened
away aa a bull dog, which was in me
kitchen, gave the alarm and aroused the
occupants of th hous. Both houses are

by Mrs. M. C. Van Derveer, formed tha
bone of contention In summary proceedlnga
begun In th district court yesterday by
Ovlde Vlen against Mrs. Van Derveer and
her husband.
Vlen at once hastened to garnishee tha
atreet' fair and carnival management in
order to attach the $300 won by Mra. Van
Derveer to aatlsfy a judgment, but was In
formed that tile money had been paid over
to Mrs. Van Derveer shortly after the draw
ing Tuesday night Special proceedlnga
were then commenced In the district court
to compel Mr. and Mra. Van Derveer to ap
pear for examination, aa to their disposition
of the money. Th examination was held
In the ' afternoon before Judge Macy and
the defendants testified that the money had
been turned over to H. H. Van Brunt, in
whoa employ Mr. Van Derveer Is; and to
whom he claimed to be Indebted. Pending
a further hearing In the matter, to be held

sell is holding court for him In Logan this
week. Judge Thornell will coma here Mon
day to try the criminal assignment, while
Judge Macy will go to Avoca to bear equity
case In Judge ThornaU's place. This
ohange is made because of Judge Macy'a
eyesight. Judge Macy recently underwent
an operation for his eyes and expect to"
undergo another early in October. In the
meantime he la forbidden to uae his eye
sight more than absolutely necesaary and
consequently this 'prevents him from pre
siding over Jury trials, which Involve the
reading of Instructions and examination of
