: MUST PAY
Court Refuses New Trial In Case
Of Marguerite Blackwell,
Who Recovered $4,000.

The o'Gorman company must pay the
big verdict Of $4,000 obtained against it
by Marguerite Blackwell She was iu-
jured by the operation of a elevator in
the O'Gorman store. and the company
not being satisfied with the verdict petit
toned the appellate court for Va new
trial This petition the court today de-
MED
There were special findings returned by
the Jury, end they were: That the eleva-
tor had not commenced to ascend when
the plaintin attempted TO enter il. and
that the elevator was started before the
door opening into the elevator shaft was
closed. There were six grounds alleged
for new trial, including contributory
negligence ana excessive damages.
Judge Douglas. who writes the opinion
of the court, says THE defendants SER
want in this case started the elevator
while the door was vide open and The
plaintiff was entering. This was nesil-
Sence OF the clcarcst character. He also
delayed stopping the elevator until il had
gone nearly To the third floor of the
building.

The only dcbatahlc question OF fact
In the case Is whether the plaintiff was
guilty of contributory negligence We cam
not SHY that the court erred i'm refusing
To change the Jury that ir she entered
the elevator after it started she could not
not recover.
'lf "a person stcps into the open door OF
an elevator apparently az rest. when he
has no reason to suppose Il will he start
30 until the invitation OF the open door

1t is perhaps improbable" says the
court, that IL tho plaintiff had placed
her loot upon the elevator threshold and
then II had begun 10 rise. she would have
been thrown forward as she was. but
IL IL not impossble.
"On the other hand it is extremely un-
likely that she rushed forward and
sprung towards the elevator while 50 was
NisiblN moving upwards aud already six
inches or more from the floor
As TO excessive damages the court saws:
The plaintiff I'm this case received very
severe and permanent injuries and the
amount OF damages assessed bv the Jury

GIVE LAND FOR BUILDING.
Now, here Is my plan. II is that the
Arcade corporation and the owners of
the property directly east of the Arcade
should donate their land to the United
states government for a postoffice site.
and There IA no doubt In my mind that
u would he an Ideal location.
Il think lot 200 BY $50 square feet
would be required. say 400. 900 feet OF IaI'T.
the value OF which / would place "a about
N.5o0|o. Such a lot would allow OF a
building with q 70-foot 'front.' and a depth
OF 200 feet. giving all ,he room that the
governhent would need, for, of course
the building could be made as many
stories high as would be required.
The United States has a law which
requires that there should be an open
space or driveway Of at least 50 feet In
width around all new government build
ings. and the lot I have Indicated would
supply all the room needed.
Now you say how are the owners OF
the property 10 be compensated for their
gift 10 the government, for naturally no
reasonable man woul0 expect that they
should give away property without an
adequate return? This L think can be
easily arranged.

VW, made up by the business men Of all
sorts and conditions, who are located
within an Imaginary line To be drawn
from say Mathewson street TO EXchanse

Washington street and Exchange Place.
MY plan would he that the men near
est 10 the pOstofflce should contribute
the largest sums, while as the distance
of their places OF business from the post
office INCREASED, their contributions
should decrease. In other words their
contributions 10 the price OF the land

Tn explaining the details OF his schemes
the real estate man stated that when the
matter OF erection OF postofrice building
in this city was being discussed the bus
mess men took very active position In
the matter
The postoffice az that time was being
conducted in hired quarters, and the gem
eral proposition was 10 put the entire
Federal business in the old Custom, House
or South Main street. bur many objected
to this. on the ground that IL was too
far from the business centre.
While the discussion was at it's height
and Just prior TO the time when a definite
decision was TO be- made. the late Dr.
William Grosvenor and two other gentle
men who owned the property or Weybos-
set street. where the Federal building
stands today. solved the problem.
They came 10 the front with deed OF
the land. which they offered 10 deliver
free OF all charges and expense To the
United States government on condition
that tho postoffice should he ereced
there and the proposition was at once
accepted.
The location was right I'm the CONNER
Cial centre and WAS Just what the busi-
ness man wanted. while the owners right
fully argued that they would lose nothing
by their gift.
rs a LITTLE TOO FAR.
Now" said the proposer OF the plan.
II do not think that the proposed site on
Exchange place is sufficiently central T
know that IL - not far from Turks Head
To Exchange place. bur II is just far
enough TO be OF the regular track of
business men, who want 10 be near the
postoffice.
1T is, OF course, greatly 20 the credit
of the city that il stands ready 10 give the
required amount OF land to the United
States government. but ! think my plan
is better one. and II the business men
look al IL IN the right light. J think they
will agree with me.
~ would like To see the new postoffice
on Westminster street between Dor
rance street and Exchange street and I
hold the opinion that IL would Increase
the value Of property very largely II this
was done. How can ia be done. you ask 4?

business men who will reap the advan-
tages. TO assume the expense OF the land
to be donated TO the government, and

WANTED ON A GRAVE CHARGE,
Sheriff Bell Will Capture Love Clarke
Today.

Sheriff Bell and posse of deputies
are upon the trail of Love Clarke, a
negro living out in the Twenty eighth
district, who is wanted upon the grave
charge of criminal assault upon a ne
gro girl residing out there.
Warrants for Clarke's arrest have
already been issued.
The alleged crime was committed q
night or two ago while Clarke was
carrying the girl home from church,
and created great excitement among
the negroes of the neighborhood.
Clarke bears an unsavory reputation
and Sheriff Bell and the posse may
have trouble in arresting him. He
is believed to be hiding in the neigh
borhood, and if this is true his capture
is foregone conclusion.
Every effort will be made to run him
to cover and land him behind the bars
of the castle.

IT CAUSED A HEAVY ADVANCE.
Food Prices Are Higher on Account
of Dr0uth.


While Americas merchants have ad-
vanced prices on only few food pro-
ducts, on account of The drouth and
consequent scarcity, the western towns
are paying war prices already. Prices
of vegetables average double that of q
year ago. Poultry and vegetables are
becoming very scarce. The fruit crop
has, suffered and that for canning pur-
poses are at prices that are almost pro-
hibitiYe. Potatoes, which last summer
sold from 800. to 4Oc. per bushel, have
now. moved to $1.25 and $3.50 during
the past few days, and dry peas and
beans have advanced so cents bushel,
owing to the demand in the drought
stricken districts. Even at this advance
the western dealers are unable to fill
all the orders. The prices quoted are
wholesale. A majority of the retail
dealers refuse to keep perishable fruit
and vegetables on hand, as prices are
SO high that the customers will not
buy.

as was threatened when the Times-Re
corder announced the departure of
Alderman Cameron for Portsmouth,
where he will probably remain some
time.
He has gone, it is true, but he might
be sent back at any time to resume
his former position.
Railway officials and heads of de-
partments are frequently shifted from
point to point, and 1t is within the
bounds of possibility that Mr.. Gamer
on will return here.
At all events he has not formally
rendered his resignation as member
of the city council, and even had he
done so the selection of his successor
could very easily be deferred until the
regular election IN November, when
the other mem bers will be chosen.
1t is too hot to wrestle with politics
here in midsummer.
We're any vital issues at stake il
might be best to have an early election
and full aldermanic board, but the
wiseacres here think that even should
Alderman Cameron remain permanent
ly in Portsmouth the board, as now
constituted, is sufficient.

elections alone until the melon season
wanes, at least.
