Lower Court Upheld.

Judge Faulkner has no right TO COM
PLAIN OF the action of the Supreme Court
of Appeals. On Saturday they rendered
the following decisions from the Circuit
and refused writ of error asked for:
Wicks & Company VS. Dawson, from JEFF
ferson county reversed in part and affirm
ed.
Herring VS. Bender, from Berkeley
county, affirmed.
Young and NadenboEsch. trustees, VS..
Building & Loan Association, from Berke-
ley county affirmed.
George VS. Hess, from Jefferson county
affirmed.
State VS. Theodore Furley, from Berke
ley county, writ OF error and supersede as
refused. Furley was tried twice and both
times convicted OF attempt at rape by the
Jury. After the second verdict Judge
Faulkner sentenced the prisoner to fifteen
months in the penitentiary. The case was
then carried 10 the Supreme Court on the
ground that Furley was convicted OF at
tempt at rape, when the evidence showed
he committed rape: that the Indictment
was sent to the jury in the second trial
with the verdict OF the first jury written
upon it; that the instructions, which the
court refused to give, Tor the defendant
should have been granted, and that the
verdict was contrary to the evidence.
Eurley was sentenced Oct, /, 1900. His
term of Imprisonment will not begin until
the day Of his admission to the peniten-
tiary
In the case of Young and Nadenbousch
trustees VS. the Building & Loan AssocIa-
ton, in which large number of the
residents of Martinsburg are Interested,
the particular question involved was
the basis on which the losses We're to be
divided among the stockholders Some
Of the stockholders had borrow
ed large sums Of money and others
had not. Among the largest borrowers
were the Miudlesex Knitting Company
and the Kilbourn Knitting Machine Com
pany. When the association became in
solvent an assessment was made TO trus-
tees for the benefit of creditors and these
trustees brought the suit in question TO
wind up the association and to determine
among other things, how settlements
should be made with borrowed stock.
The Circuit Court, Forrest w, Brown
sitting as special judge decided, first, tnat
the assets should be applied first to the
payment of debts of the association. Sec
ondIy, that the losses should be borne
equally by stockholders who had taken
loans and those who had not. Third,
that the two companies above named
were stockholders, the same as 9TH
er individuals and were not obliged
to share proportionately with the rest
in the payment of losses.
From this decree the appeal was taken.
which has just been decided and the Gil
cui. Court was affirmed in every aspect
OF the case.
On appeal it was also contended that
the board of directors of the association
had no right without she consent OF the
stockholders to make the assignment in
question, but this contention was also
overruled

The clever maiden will do up her
Christmas gifts in the daintiest wav
possible. There isn't woman wht
does not dote on receiving an odd look
ing package-something that will ap
peal to her curiosity because of its in.
diyiduality. And to make the holiday
present perfect by reason of its dainty
doing up requires but little fore
thought and few shekels.
The true Christmas colors are the
hues of the holly, and they may b.
used admirably in making dress TO
the Christmas gift. For instance, on
may go to the man who makes boxe;
and buy dark green box tied with 8
big scarlet bow of ribbon. or vice yer
sa. Instead of this desirable color com
bination in the box and bow plain
white box may be utilized with bow
of ribbon which has the holly design
woven in it. Still another idea is TO
use the white box and ribbon--sugges-
tive of snow-and in the generous bow
fasten small spray of the green
leaves with scarlet berries.
