Knocked Out An Execution for
Fifty Cents.


A suit Erows Out Of q Dispute with 4
Hired GirI-She Brings Salt for
Fifty Cents and Gets Judgment
Execution Knocked ont by Schedule
Matter Of Principle Makes the Man

sortto all Legal Expedientsto Get cut
Of the Payment.
The practice of the profession of
law in Morgantown sometimes shows
some very curious things but one of
the most remarkable circumstances
ever met with came to light day or
so since. The facts in the case as
given us by one of the attorneys are
as follows:
A certain member OF one of the
learned eallings had a hired woman
with whom he disagreed after she
had worked for him few hours and
he discharged her. He proffered her
twenty-five cents for the services
rendered and she demanded fifty
cents refusing to take any less. He
steadily refused to pay that much
and she sued him before Justice
Shoemaker.
The result of the suit was that she
obtained Judgment for the fifty
cents and costs against him. An
execution was given constable aud
he went to levy on the property 0
the defendent.
The latter told the officer that IL
matter would be fixed MP shorsls
and to come back l. couple
hours. When the officer went bael
he was informed that the defender
had scheduled and that the amou
of property owned by him amount
ing to one hundred and seventy dal
lars which would stop the execute o
The plaintiffs attorney not beifs
satisfied with the valuation put a
the property had board of apprai,-
ers sit on the case and they fou
that it should have totalled up 4
hundred and eighty-th dollars
While this did not raise it enou,
TO enable the officer to serve the ex-
ecution it did take it up high enough
to put the costs on the defendent.
Here the matter rests and the de
PENDENT has by spending a good
deal more money and time succeed
ed in avoiding the payment of the
fiftY cents charges which he regard
ed as excessive.
The defendent in the case fought
the matter on the grounds of prin-
cipal claiming that as he had agreed
to pay only twenty five cents day
that he had discharged the obliga-
ton fully and that after the matter
had COTTON into the shape of
suit he felt justified in taking
any steps whatever in order to de-
feat the plans of the plaintiff.

The whistles had just blown for II
o'clock. On quiet side street a wagon
was drawn up against the curb, its
horses feeding. One placidly munched
his oats from feed bag. For his
companion, a tin bucket holding the
necessary food had been provided. This
had somehow become displaced. and
the horse. unable to get his mouth in
TO it, had thrashed about until he had
scattered his oats upon the ground. In
the midst OF his distress man in lime
stained overalls appears. In his
dress and hurried gait II was easy to
recognize the workingman, eager for
his own dinner and with but little time
TO eat II. But he saw the horses trou-
BILE and stopped abruptly. Then he
quickly seized the discomforting buck
ct, swept the scattered oats into It, fas-
tened it securely to the horses head.
and then patting the animals neck af-
fectionately, he hurried away TO his
own dinner. 1t was a gentle, spon-
taneous act. or kindly nature such as
women trust, and children love. May
bounteous dinners be his always!

The most extraordinary book sale of
this century is that attending What
Would Jesus Do?" by the Rev. Charles
Sheldon Of Kansas. Over three million
copies have been sold in England
alone, while three other of his books,
published at penny apiece, recently
ran through an edition OF nine hun
dred thousand copies in a fortnight.
While the poet laureate has lately
called upon our government to redress
the copyright laws respecting English
authors, twenty English publishers
have pirated Mr.. Sheldon's sermon
stories. The self-seeking, inconsider-
ate man is of no abiding city, nor can
any country call itself immune from
his predations.
