A case came before Lawyer William

A case came before Lawyer William:
son that well illustrates the penurious
meanness of some of the rich to their
help. A bright, intelligent coloreu
lady came into his Office to ask his aid
in securing her weeks wages from a
family where she had previously been
employed, but had been peremptorily
discharged to make place for former
white servant who wanted the place
again. Her employer not only dis
charged her without notice, but
refused to pay her for her services
unless she would pay one-half OF that
for a single tea-cup which she had
broken accidentally. When the wages
were demanded of the employer by
Mr.. Williamson, through fear OF the
law they were reluctantly paid, but not
without much abuse of both by the
parsimonious EMPLOYER

the Arctic crossing was continued yester-
day afternoon in Coroner Greene's office
in Providence. The train men were sum-
moned and their testimony taken in full,

first witness called was Frank III. Love,
engineer. He stated that his train ar
rived in Centerville five minutes late on
the day of the fatality, January %.
There is no stop between Centerville
and Riverpoint and the running time is
four minutes. No steam was used after
leaving Centerville on account of the steep
grade, and the train was running at its
usual rate, between 20 and 80 miles per
hour.
Mr.. Love at first stated that he blew a
crossing whistle at the whistling post
just before the station, but he retracted
his statement and said it was station
whistle only.
The first knowledge he had of col
lision was learned from seeing the
form:of the horse going over the
front OF the engine and the
resulting shock. No carriage or person
was seen and the train was Immediately
stopped and backed up.
Thomas Mallon, fireman, was next ques-
toned. He stated thao he began to ring
the bell imedately after the whistle and

1t has been suggested that in case an
enabling act for the annexation of por-
tion of Johnston to the city Is agreed
upon by the committee of conference and
presented to the Legislature for their con-
sideration, that the committee to which
it is referred might be induced
to return n substitute act that would
compel the city to allow the town OF
Johnston to enter their sewrage system
upon the payment OF a reasonable sum per
annum.
The natural drainage OF the greater por-
tion of the proposed annexed territory Is
toward the city limits. No other outlet
can be had except through the
city, and in view of this condition IL is
thought that enough members of the
Legislature would assist Johnston out of
its dilemma in providing proper and de-
quate sewerage for itself and not allow O
fabulous sum to be charged.
