Thi3 morning in the office of the

was filed by John X. Habel against
Adam J. Schafer and E. P. Stewart,
sheriff, in which the plaintiff seeks a
restraining order to prevent- the de
fendants from carrying out an exe
cution issued in the county court in
favr of Mr. Schafer for $34.35 and
against the plaintiff, Mr. Habel.
The sheriff of the county by virtue
of the execution in the county court
has levied on some property in hte
hands of Mr. Habel and which he
seeks to have returned to him. The,
plaintiff in his petition alleges that
the judgment was entered against
him by default when he was ill and
that there had been an understand

should be continued, but instead the
judgment was entered.
District Judge James T. Beclev is
