How Watch Cases are Made.

In 1875, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the James Boss Gold Watch Case.
Now over five hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. The rea-
son of this increase is this: In the James
BosS Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid gold, while the re-
mainder, which only lends strength to the
case, is of stronger metal than gold,
giving gold where gold is needed, and
strong, elastic metal where strength and
elasticity are needed, combination pro-
ducing q watch case better than solid gold
and at oNE-HALF the cost. ., ~ .,,.
Over 100000 of these cases Z j
have been sold, and every jeweler in the
country can testify to their quality and
merit. ,,,,,,,ro,, ,,,o,, IA. 1000

LEGAL MATTERS.
Judge Mills's Decision In the Civil Rights
Case-Tho Pungy Libel Dismissed.

In the police court on Saturday Judge Mills
rendered his decision in the James W. Bell
case, the hotel keeper, charged with refusing
q meal to Geo. II. Smith, colored, of Norwich,
Conn. This case is the first ever tried hero
under the criminal section of the civil rights
statute.
Judge Mills made an exhaustive review of
the law and the facts in the case He said
that the proprietor of u boarding house,
lodging house, or coffee house cannot be COM
PEELED to entertain travellers, but a house en-
ioying the privileges granted under the law
to an inn or hotel, as does the defendants,
comes directly under the provisions of the
statute. Under tho common law an inn
keeper is bound to take in and receive all
travellers and waytarers, and by the act of
congress of March l, 1875, it is made misde-
meanOr to discriminate against a traveller on
account of race and color, regardless of any
previous condition of servitude. The coun-
sci of the defendant claimed that he had Il
right to establish certain regulations as TO
hours for meals, and to designate cor
tain places or seats for customers. Both
these propositions must be considered,
with this qualification in regard to the
second, that whatever determinations arc
made must be upon some principle or for some
reason that the law recognizes as just and
reasonable, and that no discrimination Is
ulhub on account Ol COiOIi race, OF previous
condition also that all Of the guests shall
possess equal privileges and that the places
so designated shall be acceptable to all re-
spectacle persons at uniform rate of charge.
After citing q number of authorities, Judge
Mills said 81 am we'll satisfied that this vio-
lation of civil rights was perpetrated from no
other consideration than that the plaintiff
was man Of color, and that the personal in
dignity offered him proceeded from the same
cause. The violation of the plaintiffs right
to enter, on the same conditions as other GUS
toners enter the place of public entertain
ment managed by the defendant renders tho
latter liable to damages" In conclusion
Judge Mills said he would fine the defendant
$500 or thirty days in jail, the lowest penalty.
An appeal was noted.
Judge Hagner, as district judge on Satur-
day had before him the case of James II.
Cryer, master of the pungy Climax, IN which
Cryer filed libel against the vessel for his
wages, amounting TO over $500. Mr., d. orc.
Callaghan appeared for Cryer aud G.. c. Lam
caster for the respondent. The latter filed
demurrer, raising the question that the master
cannot libel the vessel, on which the case was
heard. The court said that the libelant had
"A right of action against the estate of the
owner, and he sustained the demurrer and
dismissed the libel.

GIVE THE DOGS A CHANCE.
tn the EffffOr.


| would like TO call your attention to the
inhuman manner in which "vagrant dogs"
are killed. According to the account of tho
killing on Thursday many were loft wrthing
in agony, and only few out of the forty
three were killed instantly. Since tits neces-
sary put untaXed dogs out of existence is it
not right that they should have the most
painless death possible? Even very expert
shooting must often fail TO be fatal, and to
shoot poor brute four times seems cruel and
most unnecessary. Why should not chloroform
be adopted instead of shooting2 A moderate
quantity serves to produce n sleep from
which the dog never wakes. Tho object in
taking up dogs is in the first place to rid the
city of uncared-for dogs which might
prove dangerous during the hot weather, and
in the second place to collect the fine
from owners of unlicensed dogs, thus forcing
thcm to pay the tax But the love of blood
shed on the part of tho poundmcn is so great
that their object seems to bo to dispatch as
mauy dogs as possible the minute tho Bpeoi-
fed time has elapsed, regardless of their value
or condition. Last Thursday there were
twenty persons outside the pound during the
shooting who had come to redeem their dogs,
and yet because the three days were just over,
they were not allowed the right. In three
days Il dog is scarcely missed, especially in
summer, when so many persons are absent.
Five days is n short enough time for an owner
to miss and hunt up his dog and if he reaches
the pound after the dog is condemned, let him
even then have the privilege Of redeeming
him. This is but common humanity.
