A Ruf1led Minister.

o. B. Truman, lawyer, loan and real estate
agent and minister of the gospel, of Bloom.
ington, is aggrieved, and files a claim for
$500 damages against the Burlington & Mis-
souri, River Railroad company, before tue
state board of transportation. He alleges
that he boarded the train Monday morning,
April /. at Franklin for Bloomington; that
he rendered his money to the agent for the
ticket and he could not make the change;
that he rendered the conductor quarter Of
q dollar, and stated why he was without
ticket; that the far to his place of destina-
, tion was only Is cents; that the conductor
demanded 40 cents and he declined 10 pay it,
and thereupon was bounced from the train,
and that he was grossly insulted by the con-
ductor, who told him in an insulting manner:
Next time, stay off the train unless you
have ticket" Wherefore he prays iudg-
ment against the defendant for damages, as
stated, for uncivil treatment and insulting
language used toward him. The board
returned the complaint and cited
section of chapter ~ OF The compiled
statutes, also that the returnable rebate was
legitimate fare under the law, and that the
failure of the agent to make change would
not justify refusal OF would be passenger
to pay the prescribed rebate. And, further,
