The case developed the facts that Burns had purchased S75 worth of furnituf^ from Brown and' Noble and haa ^evidently paid all but a balance of three ddllars* which Burnssaid, he .supposedwas paid. Beforehis departure from-the city he sold the goods to ^Vaughan for $45.00 and j shortly aftor,delivedng the goods and getting, the check for them. Mr. No-; j ble called at-i:the second hand , store and demanded the* furniture and produced his „claim,. the .small balance -due, which Vaughan paid at chat time -.Mr. Vaughan’was terribly wrought-up . over the trouble ami Immediately^had a wan ant issued for DuraV arrest, who had left. the city, and whose whereabouts was- not known for more than a year.. Owing to the _ fact that Vaughan did not wish to prosecute the' case was dropped with a fine of S5.00 and ' costs/ amounting : to 'about $25.00 which will he paid. In the meantime^ Burns is in the city jail awaiting, the funds to arrive. It certainly looks like it lot of trouble and expense for tlie trival olfense.
