Grant Boyer , of the firm of Taylor & Boyer , has made an other violin , better than the first one he made. He brought it up to our office to show how it looked. We couldn't see any marks made by the hand axe or saw , nor we couldn't tell where he began or stopped. It wasn't painted up like other violins but it had the sound of a good violin , though made by the carpenter who can build houses as well as he can make violins. He is at present working upon another violin , as he says he likes to work with wood , and dur ing the winter months when there is nothing else doing he puts in spare time making fine articles that require genuine skill. Last Friday the Standard Cattle company , through its foremen , [ Messrs. Stewart and Case , had Win. LeLaCheur arraigned before County Judge Towne , charged with the theft of a red heifer calf. The evidence showed that a calf had been replevined from John Sullivan , a neighbor of LeLa- Cheur's , to whom the latter had sold the calf previously. No brand could be detected upon the calf and from the fact that its ears were clipped or appeared the same as those burned by the 101 , Mr. Case thought it belonged to the Standard Cattle company and took j it. No brand being found on the j heifer , they killed it and the brand ' now appears very plain as 101 on the side. Attorneys Clarke and Easley made no defense before Judge Towne for their client , Wm. LeLaCheur , and he was bound over to the district court in the sum of § 500 bonds to appear March 20th , the next regurlar ses sion of the district court. We are the ?
