ntyilnst CIiiih. Hills because a horse
purchased by the former from tin
Ir.tter. it is ulleged. turned out to
have a bunch or bud ipialities which
Mills said did not exist wucu the mil-
iiiiil changed hands.
"Why didn't yon tell mo this horse
hail bad hablls when you bold him to
me?" a man who had been stuck on a
trade mice asked the man who stuck
linn. "Why the fellow I bought him
of didn't tell iiio" was the reply "and
I thought he didn't want it known."
It Is something like I Ills that Mr.
Piper alleges against Mr. Hills. The
petition beginning Knit was tiled by
Attorney Charles I). Smith for Piper.
It recllos that plaintiff on the ISth
V
(?)
day of May. 1!)0. did buy a lunsu
from defendant for a consideration
of $S0 and that the purchase was
made on the strict guarantee of de-
fendant that the animal was perfectly
safe sound and gentle. The petition
slates that the plaintiff parlicularly
emphasized the necessity of getting
a horse "perfectly docile In disposi-
tion niul habits with no bad and vic-
ious quality.'
Truck Farmer.
The petition further alleges that
Tiper and wife operate a truck farm
and that he contemplated having his
wife use the horse driving with it
to tlie eitv frequently and that on this
i( count ho insisted that the horse
be safe. The petition says that a
couivie or three weeks alter the pur
chase the horse "violently kicked
and .stamped said wife of said plain-
tiff breaking her arm cutting her
throat anil chin and otherwise doing
her dangerous and serious injury in
a terrible anil vicious manner and
would have killed her If a third par-
ty had not rushed to her rescue."
Plaintiff prays the court to grant
him damages in I he sum of $5000
because of the allegation that defend-
ant misrepresent oil the qualities of
the horse because of his failure to
warn him of tho had traits of the an-
imal and because of the alleged
knowledge plaintiff had of these bad
traits when the deal was made.
Shortly before (! o'clock last eve
ning the jury in .Tudge Watts' court
silting in the case of the State
against Ike Long accused of assault
with intent to rob returned a verdict
of guilty. Long was sentenced to
five years in tlie penitentiary. This
case was calleil in llio cany anor-
noon and counsel for both sides an
nounced ready to proceed. A jury
was empaneled and the introduction
5
of testimony and arguments of coun
sel occupied the entire afternoon.
Criminal Docket.
Considerable headway was made
(:
on the criminal ilociiot ol mo sixti-
eth District court yesterday by Judge
Walts. At the request of the Slate's
attorney three cases ponding against
Dr. Itornard of Port Arthur were dis-
missed fo lack of evidence. Dr. Hor-
nard was charged with malpractice
on three indictments but after invest
igating the evidence the prosecuting
fiiii.rti.iv- u-nu nr Ihe ntnninn thai IT
Itvns insiitlicieni to convict and the
cases were accordingly dismissed.
(?)
The case of the State against Jesus
r.uerero. a Mexican charged with
forcerv and with passing a forged
I instrument were continued at the re-'cd as It is the intuition of the gov-
JJciuost f t do prosecuting attorney eminent in constructing the sampie
(Ji;Tlie case of the State against Jeff to show what can be accomplished.
