COST THE COUNTY DEARLY.
Suit for a Cows Dinner Took SIOo
Out Of tn, Public Treasury.

Judge Hosmer and jury disposed
Of an amusing case on Friday which
again exemplifies the truthfulness of
the proposition that it does not pay
to litigate for principle. Gottlieb
Hackstein got just Is cents worth
Of satisfaction out of Christian Fl.
Kuhn in this suit.
Last summer one of Mr.. Kuhn's
cows escaped into highway of
Springwells and while searching for
greener pastures perceived the
garden of Mr. Hackstein. Her
mouth watered at the array of sue
culent garden truck, and, finding a
possible entrance to the inclosure,
she performed the work of lawn
mower on two rows of beets before
her presence was discovered by the
Hackstein family. Mr.. Hackstein
promptly impounded the COW and
notified his neighbor Kuhn that he
would retain possession of the ami
NAL until damages aggregating 1926
were paid. Kuhn conceded that dam
age had been done, but reckoned
the damage to garden truck $3.50.
The parties hopelessly disagreed,
and both sides hired lawyers. Kuhn
replevined his COW and won the case
in the justice court, but Hackstein
wanted higher adjudication and APP
pealed to the Wayne circuit court.
After the facts had been presented
to the jury Judge Hosmer instructed
them that Hackstein was undoubted-
ly entitled to verdict, but left them
to say how much must be paid.
After celebrating on the case a
short time the jury returned YER
dict for IS cents for Hackstein. The
trial of the petty appeal case cost
the county of Wayne over $780,

NEW YoRKs TRUCKwoMAN.
She Is Pretty. Gentle, 6usinessIike
and a Widow.
New York has a truckwoman.

and a Widow.
New York has truckwoman.
She is not q stalwart, progressive
new woman, with a fondness for
dress reform and longing for wom-
ans suffrage, but an exceedingly
pretty, modest little woman, who
takes an interest in spring bonnets
and is as well versed in domestic lore
as she is in her business, says the
New York Journal.
Just off Broadway, at 2 Bond
street, is neatly painted stand,
bearing the sign wv. J. Buckley,
truckman." Here at all times of the
day, seated on stool, the proprietor
of the business may be found. To
many of the customers who tap at
the window of the stand the sight of
the proprietor is most pleasant
surprise. Instead of a mans form
bending over the books of the firm
one sees a stylishly dressed woman,
At the second glance the fact that
she is pretty woman is apparent.
She has good color, a well-rounded
form and soft brown, rather appeal
ing eyes. Her hair matches her
eyes in color and her teeth are con-
spicuously beautiful She is Mrs.
Kittie Buckley, the only woman
truckman in New York.
Four years ago Mrs. Buckley
started her career as a business
woman. She tool up the trucking
business where her husband left it
aNhis death and since then has not
only made money but gained the re-
spect of all the business houses with
whom she has dealt.
"My business" said Mrs. Buck
ley to reporter, is almost entirely
with the book trade. | am carrying
it on in just the same lines that my
husband did. l have the same men
with me that he hired, and work for
the same firms, only l have enlarged
his list of customers somewhat. The
men apparently do not object to be-
ing 'bossed' by a woman, for in
every way they show me great re-
spect."
Mrs. Buckley owns seven trucks
and teams, and though hdR business
is large and fourishing, she doesn't
pay any extra money in engaging
the services of a bookkeeper She
herself keeps the books, as we'll as
attending to every other detail of the
business.
Yes, i like the work" she de-
clared. 1T interests me and l real
ly think it has benefited me physical
ly. 1t has forced me out of doors
every day and has certainly given
me plenty of food for thought. Then
it's hobby of mine to believe q
woman can't be really well and
happy unless she is busy"

a Queer Accident.

A curious point has cropped up in
the court of appeals, London. A
railway employe, who is insured
against all kinds of accidents, sus-
tanned o shock which permanently
incapacitated him, through witness
ing an accident. The question was,
could he recover under the policy?
and the court decided that he could.
There IS to be an appeal to the
house Of lords.

A jovial old lady of T.agny, near
Paris, named Miette, recently re-
ceived large legacy. She ran
through it rapidly and after provid-

hired the town band to lead the
funeral procession, playing live

people to dance, and striking up its
gayest air when the coffin was
lowered into the grave.

mishaps important enough TO get even
casual mention in the papers. have not
averaged one a week. The number Of
riders without lights averages about one
per evening. The number of reckless
riders must be nearly nil, for there are
ne results OF recklessness to show. The
riders is rare and exceptional. Sometimes
the h-oodiumism of some who do not
ride is experienced, but even this is
growing daily more Once
in a while the great American Hog on a,
wheel, on foot or behind a horse behaves
in such a way as to induce some wheel
man to "call him down. Then he is
apt to rush to the police or the news
papers with bitter complaints, not recog-
MIXING that he is the real offender.
Now the time has come when the fact
should be recognized that the rights of
wheelmen are inferior to n~obody,s. Thirty
per cent. of the male population and
twenty-five per cent. of the women have
become wheel riders and the proportion
is growing daily. In a year or so a ma
jority of people will ride. In presence Of
this condition, riders nave rights in the
road which wen pedestrians are bound
to respect, and one of these is the right
to be protected from censures for mis-
haps growing out of the stupidity or
obstinacy or ~ill-nature of non-riders.

A Cause Worth Fighting for and .
Leader worth Fighting Under.

When insane partisan acerbities are
forgotten, and history is written with
clear vision, the name of Grover Cleve-
land will be written not only with the
first in the ranks of popular leadership
in the United States, but perhaps first OF
all in point OF pure. unselish patriotism.
His call to the Democracy today is ami
mated by as high a sense of right, as
deep a devotion to duty, as earnest a
love of the country and it's institutions
as can be found in the u%tterances of any
American statesman from Washington
to Lincoln.
The fervor which the President shows
In all his public u%tterances is all the
more admirable because it represents
q fixed tone an habit of mind. 1t is
comparatively easy to glow with patri-
otto spirit in periods of great popular
disturbances, when danger threatens the
government and the people and the at
mosphere Is full of the magnetic infiu-
e1ce OF war. 1t is not so easy to Hnd an
s~pfration in the piping times of peace
and to cultivate enthusiasm out of alb
stract ideas.
President Cleveland appeals to the De-
mocracy for the sake of the country
and for the sake of the party itself
as the custodian of the country's future
hopes. His argument is as forcible as it
is brief. The adoption of currency debase-
ment is a betrayal of the country and an
abandonment of Democratic principle.
Victory would be too dearly bought by
such a sacrifice: but in truth the sacri-
flee would not bring any reward. for,
as the President says, currency debase-
ment, after the searching discussion of a
campaign would not be a means of sue
cess; it would, on the contrary, give the
Republican party an advantage to which
it is not otherwise entitled.
The final words should be a clarion call
to all sound Democrats
"A cause worth fighting for Is worth
lighting for TO the end. If sound money

mistake being made, such danger shoule
