Nordgren Celebrates.
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.
