Harbour’s North Third Street. Lovelaceville Now on Trial. Dempsey Hill, colored, broke into Mrs. Carrie Jobnson's residence, 410 North Fifth street, a few months ago and stole a suit of clothing, some shirts, etc. He was captured in Union City, Tenn., and brought back for trial, admitting his guilt at the time. When the case was called this morning, however, he pleaded not guilty, but the charge was proven on him and he was given two years in the penitentiary. Several cases in the common law docket were called and disposed of. The divorce suit of Sallie M. Elrod against Jerry Elrod was dismissed. In the case against Will Skelton, charged with house breaking, the at- tendance of John Lehnhard, of Ev- ansville, was ordered. The case against Will Hudson, charged with obtaining a watch and other valuables from Annie Harper by false pretenses, is on trial this af- ternoon. The grand jury will likely make a report this afternoon. A batch of half a dozen or more indictments will be returned, but all are in jail cases.
