Philip Weiler of Formosa wa-s the otjier day fined $10 and costs for oolding a rattle at a shooting match at Formosa on Thanksgiving day and di.tposing of turkeys, geese and ducks by games of chance. A nice point has been opened up iu this case aud it is possitile i; hasn't seen tqe last of the courts yet. After Weiler had been seived with a summons to appear at KinlouKh, it appears that he pleaded guilty before a Formosa magistrate and paid 91 aud costs for tiiis ott'ence. As you can't hang a man twice tor the same crime, the .(Uesliou is whether Ihe Formosa tine of $1 will si've Weiler from cashing over the. 910 puu- ishment inflicted at Kinluugh, or whether a man aleady suiuinoned lo appear at one court can annul this summons by pleading guilty in another court. Tho pi-oblem for Ihe legal lights to decide is whether the tirst .summons or the fir»t Hue prevails.â€" BriKe Hstald and Tnuts.
