Aryid Nordgren, who brought suit against Harry Dixon for damages in the sum of $17,000, and was given a judg ment of $750, by the district court jury Monday, was arrested Tuesday evening on tho charge of being drunk and dis orderly nnd lodged in jail. It is pre sumed that the judgment awarded him was responsible for the conduct that landed him in jail, but his celebration was somewhat premature, as it is the announced intention of Mr. Dixon to appeal the case to the higher court on the grounds that the evidence in tho case did not warrant the verdict. This writer did not hear the testimony in the case, but ho is told by some of those who were present that the ac cident was due to the negligence of Nordgren rather than to the careless ness of Dixon, and thut tho injuries received by Nordgren wore greatly magnified by him, and so proven by the physicians who examined the nrm claimed to be so seriously injnred.
