DECISION ON MORTGAGES.
Fine Legal Point Decided by the Iowa
Supreme Court.

Supreme Court.
JEFFERSON, Feb. "A decision
handed down by the supreme court re-
lating to chattel mortgages is attracting
a good deal of interest, inasmuch as it
is reversal Of the decision of the lower
tribunal, the district court. Coe Davis
of Scranton made an assignment and
executed a mortgage in favor of his
brother, who had advanced him money
to carry on the business. The mort
gage covered the stock and also certain
notes and the book accounts. 1t ap-
pears that some of the creditors induced
Davis to make a separate assignment of
the notes and book accounts to them.
The transfer was rather in.
formal, being in the nature Of
an order to take them, made
ON scrap of paper, and the result was
that the other creditors by this means
got hold Of the accounts and notes be-
fore the brother who had the mortgage
arrived on the scene to claim them. He
sued on his mortgage, and Judge Gold
smith decided against him, holding that
the mortgage could not convey the
book accounts and notes. The case was
appealed, and the supreme bench gave
a good deal of attention to the case, as
it was something that had not came up
for adjudication; in fact, the judges all
took hand in the case. They decided
unanimously that the mortgage was
good, that chattel mortgage could hold
notes, accounts and bills receivable just
as well as it could stock of goods or a
piece of real estate, and the lower court
decision was reversed.

say she will be healthy, attractive,

isn't very serious-no matter-the time

Bishop Had Played Himself.

That pretty little story about the senator
from Tennessee paying for hi. luncheon
with poker chip and afterward putting
the joke on the secretary of the treasury is
eclipsed bya new yarn that Mr.. Carlisle is
telling his friends in Washington. In
Bishop Dudley's church, when the collec-
ton was taken up one of the vestrymen
inadvertently dropped into the plate a
poker chip for a silver dollar. Overcome
with modification, he hurried into the
bishops room after service and said
Bishop, don't know how in the world
1T happened, but do you know dropped
poker chip into the plate2 How it ever got
into my pocket cannot imagine. Here is
half dollar. 1 want to redeem it."
Not at that price, Brother Blank" said
the bishop with smile "It is a blue chip;
cost you just 81. So"
Brother Blank looked at him in surprise
But, bishop" he said, how In the world
do you know blue chip is worth ST.. sop
Remember, Brother Blank, 1 am the
bishop of Kentucky"

parted. New York Press.

Venezuela's Poisonous Apples.

One Of our consuk in Venezuela tells a
fairylike tale about poisonous apple upon
which the soft shell crabs of Venezuela
feed. 1t is called the manzanillo, and the
crabs eat 1t with impunity, although it is
rank poison. The flesh Of the crab be-
comes thoroughly impregnated with the
poison and is thus rendered fatal diet.
The manzanillo, or little apple" is found
along the coast. 1t is about an inch in
diameter and grows upon q tree similar in
appearance to an apple tree. 1t is very
pleasant to the eye and has sweet, In
sipid taste. 1t Is usually found where
there is fresh water and may easily tempt
thirsty, inexperienced voyager. 1t is,
however, a deadly poison, primarily caus-
ing intense burning pains in the throat
and stomach. Unless remedies are prompt
ly applied death is inevitable. It is even
dangerous to remain in the shade of one Of
these trees, and a person taking shelter
under 1t during rain will suffer from pain
ful blisters wherever drop of water fall
ing from the leaves touches his person.

HE WOULD MOI PAY.
A Queer Adventure on a Car and Its Sur
prising Sequel.

Phsihk ce4ucis
A gentleman accompanied by his wife
and children boarded Fourth avenue car
at Twenty third street recently. The wife
and children found seats inside the car,
while the husband sought the front plat
form fer smoke.
When the conductor called for the fares
the man gave him two dimes, at the same
time explaining, with jerk of his thumb
over his shoulder, that he was paying for
the other three members of his family
seated inside the car.
The conductor rang up the four fares
and then extended his hand with the re-
mark:
You owe me another nickel"
what for?" laconically inquired the
man, blowing a Whit of smoke around
the corner of the car.
You'll have to pay for that other child
IN there. She's years old, isn't she?"
Yes, l guess she's nearer 81
Then why don't you pay her fare and
not Keep me standing here all day." ex-
claimed the conductor with considerable
emphasis.
Because don't want to, that's why"
replied the man on the platform with a
grin.
Then I'll have to call policeman,
SAID the conductor spitefully, ringing the
bell TO let off passenger.
"All right, call a policeman-call ten if
you want to. There's plenty of them."
While this dialogue between the two was
going on the passengers shot many indig-
nant glances toward the front of the car at
the man who was SO mean that no would
not pay his own child's car fare The
wife's face turned as red as poppy as she
heard an old lady in black exclam:
THAT mans too stingy to live"
When the car reached Eighth street, it
came to stop, and policeman, who had
been signaled by the conductor came on
board
why don't you pay the child's fares"
said the policeman, marching up to the
cool but apparently mean man.
Because she isn't my child" calmly
answered the man.
The policeman looked at the conductor,
and the conductor looked at the man, and
the passengers looked at each other The
delightful silence which followed was in
terrupted by the little girl herself, who
called out to the conductor:
"Why don't you take my car fare?
