To Support His Children.

In Philadelphia Saturday, on complaint of
Camilla c. and Howard L. johnson, jr,
children of Howard L. johnson, a clerk in the
quartermaster generals Office, Judge Penrose
made an order requiring the father to help
support them. 1t was in evidence that the es-
tate left them by their mother was insufficient
for this purpose. 1t is provided in the order
that If support shall not be furnished the quar-
termaster general shall be given notice to de-
duct from Johnson's salary of 81 200 year
enough for the purpose and apply it to the
support of the children.

Of how her ducks and chickens had been killed.
and said that the defendant was in the crowd Of
men who did the shooting.
Were the ducks and chickens killed in day
hght2" asked the court.
''They were shot in the broad blazes of the
daylight" she responded.
The proof did not show that Basil did the
shooting. and Judge Miller directed the filing
of a charge Of disorderly conduct.
The proof again heard and the Judge told
Basil that he would have to obtain some occu-
patton other than shooting other people, ducks
and chickens. Its bad enough for people "a
go after chickens in the night time. said the
judge, but the idea of shooting peoples
chickens in broad daylight is the worst the
court ever heard Of" A tine Of so was inn
posed
