The Sowden-Idahe Case. The $50,000 damage case now in progress in the Superior Court is not likely to.come te an end this week, some of the lawyers engaged in it appear to think. It was believed that the examination of plaintiff's witnesses would conclude last night. The trial would be very monotonous tospectators who are not directly interested in the result, were it not for the humerous little scenes enated between those two belligerent Cross and Tyler. > Pat up Paper Boxes.
