Mourse, two bro- thers, of Pickerel, held up the Schroeder Lumber Company at] I'akesley and robbed them of money and securities to the value of over $5,000.

It may be thought it would have been better practice to have had him tried for all the offenses at the same time, but, nevertheless here is a charge. outstanding, with all the evince of proof, upon which a prisoner has never been tried. I have no doubt that in the trial for the robbery charge the Judge will take into consideration all the eireum- stances suiTounding the other erime for which he was indicted and the Punishment which he has already suffered, inst as the Judge who pre- s'ded when he was tried for mur- 'der would have done.
