Court  Doings

C.  R.  Huber  was  tried  on  a charge  of
assault  to  kill  a Mexican  at  Pinos  Altos.  At  a
baile  he  shot  and  killed  a Mexican  and  wounded
another.  He  was  acquitted  at  the  previous  trial,
for  murder.  He  was  constable  at  Pinos  Altos
and  he  claimed  that  the  Mexicans  conspired  to
kill  him  and  were  attacking  him.  This  time
the  jury  failed  to  agree.  The  general  opinion
is  that  the  officer  was  too  anxious  to  kill  some
one  and  make  a reputation.
