Of every crook and criminal in the coun-

caused the judge to declare that during
the progress Of the trial he had 10 pinch
himself TO be sure he was not dreaming.
The original case was practically ig-
nored. II was shown that the plaintiffs
were Of a family Of professional crirni-
nails, one that had been such for four
generations. Judge and jury agreed
that such people could not be libeled.
And it turned out after all that the orig
inal publication was true, though it was
not proved on the trial.

At 2:S6 p. m. yesterday the first hu-

There were a number in there at the
time, among them the HERALD CORE

"There seems to be some misappre-

want to do is to drive out the dis

Secretary J. B. Dennis of the Liquor

THE TOP STORY IN CHICAGO.
BY RALPH E. HoYT.

BY RALPH L. HOYT.
Upon an elevator seat a business man reclined,
While money problems occupied his weary,
anxious mind,
The elevator gripman stopped when he had
run awhile,
Inquiring if the passenger would ride another
mile.
The passenger said, smilingly, ''We've travelled
only seven,
The buildings top 1 wish to reach-my Office is
in heaven"
So on they went, through upper space, without
the least embargo,
For this occurred, as you must know, in buster
ing Shecargo.
The ground, the lake. all things below quick
from their vision faded,
And realms of lighter atmosphere they fear
lesslv invaded.
For just five minutes up they shot, then reached
the journeys end,
Close by the travellers Office door, where earth
and heaven blend.
