Samuel P. Carpenter, two indictments for forgery. A. H. Morehead, two indictments for for- gery. Carpenter, Cobb and Bragaw were county commissioners, A. H. Morehead, probate clerk, F. P. Whitehill, his deputy, H. H. Whitehill, sheriff and collector and J. A1 Card, his deputy. The murder case against Barney Kerr charged with the killing of his brother, Jimmy, came up for trial yesterday afternoon at 4 o’clock and a jury was impannelled as follows: Geo. Pottem, N. O. Dimmick, M. V. Cox, Morris Longstreth, George Parker, W. P. Dorsey, James Winters, George Hinman, Steve Uhli, Price B. Heather and Sim Eby. The trial is in progress. Col. F. M. Galloway of Pinos Altos took a pleasure ride last week. The colonel was so accustomed to walking that he had forgotten how to manipulate the reins. The horse ran under the limb of a tree, scraping the colonel off and giving him a beautiful black eye. A by- stander remarked : ‘Let her go Galloway.” Louis Abraham whilst monkeying with a screw driver yesterday, managed to drive it through his hand. The wound though painful is not dangerous, and Louis will be himself again in a day or two. SPAULDING BUYS RANCHES
