ESTABLISHED A PRECEDENT.
II You give your ticket to Scalpel
and it is cOnfiscated, You cannot
get It back Again.

The result of case of more than or
ainary interest before Magistrate Levy
yesterday morning establishes pre-
oedent regarding the right Of the joint
Ticket Agency to confiscate scalped
tickets. w. D. Kirk recently arrived
at this city from New York. When he
reached Charleston, he left his round
trip ticket in the hands Of Scalper to
be sold. A purchaser was found, bnt
when he appeared at the joint Agency
with the Ticket, it was contscated.
The purchaser hurried back to the cut
rate establishment and the scalper fell
fell back on Kirk The New Yorker
settled with the man who failed to pull
the wool over the eyes of the Railroad
people and then asked the Joint
Agency to return to him the ticket he
bought at New York. The request was
not complied with. The Joint Agency
had posters and placards on all sides
proclaiming the fact that a ticket pre-
sented for yalidation by other than the
original purchaser will be held up.
KIRK swore out warrant before Mag
istrate Levy against the Joint Agency,
charging that concern with larceny.
When the matter came up for an in
vestigation, the Magistrate dismissed

TICKET sCALPING.

A case against the Charleston Joint
Agency which was referred to Magis-
trate Levy this morning established a
precedent relative to scalped tickets,
which the travelling public would do
well to heed. When the purchaser Of
straight ticket attempts to dispose Of
it, and the railroads spot the transac-
action, and confiscate the ticket, the
original purchaser has no redress, and
cannot force the authorities to surren-
der his tickets.
W. D., Kirk, q travelling man. came
to Charleston from New York on
Penn, ticket. When he arrived here,
he deposited his ticket with scalper.
and instructed him to sell 1t. The
Broker sold the ticket, but was prompt
ly held up. The victim returned to
the Broker. and demanded the re.
turn of his money. The Broker sum
moned Mr.. Kirk and told him the
story of the trade. Mr.. Kirk refunded
the man who had failed to hoodwrhk
the vigilant officers Of the Agency, and
then went himself to the Agency, and
demanded that the ticket in question
be restored him on the ground that he
was the original purchaser, and had
not disposed OF 1t. He was informed
that his futile effort to sell the ticket
nullified his claims to it. 1t is a rule
OF the Agency that a ticket
presented by any one for validation.
other than the original purchaser,
shall be conflscated. Mr.. Kirk did not
present his ticket for validatioh in
person, and the Agency officials got
next to him.
When the Agency declined to sur
render the ticket to Mr.. Kirk, he pro-
cured warrant for the arrest Of the
Officials, charging them with the lar
ceny of a ticket. Magistrate Levy dis
missed the case after hearing the COM
plainants statement not even deeming
it necessary to take the evidence which

A VOICE FROM SUNFLOwER.

Mr.. ]. A. Richardson, editor of the
Indianola Tocsin, is in the city today
on business. Mr.. Richardson is dis
posed to rejoice that the lot OF his
home county was not cast with Warren
in redistricting OF the state. In dis
cussing the Rhea murderers, now un-
der sentence to hang, Mr.. Richardson
said that the feeling against Cooke and
Lauderdale is intense and that it will
be bad piece of work if the supreme
court should grant a new trial on any
technicality. Mr. Richardson is in
favor of less leniency and more punish
ment for grave crimes in the Delta
and cites that in his own county there
have been twenty-three murders in
ten years without one solitary convic-
tion before the courts.-V Vicksburg

A ROYAL CONCERT.

The fierce light that is supposed to
beat upon throne gives us, after all,
but little definite knowledge of the
personality of its occupant, while "the
divinity that doth hedge king" fire.
quently blinds us to the knoledge that
the monarch is but human being
with pretty much the same tastes and
inclinations as the ordinary mortal.
In our minds eye, we are accustomed
to clothe king with an impossible
amount of dignity, and it is given to
but few Americans to penetrate the
royal reserve, and mark the man be-
meath the pomp and panoply of rank.
The recent experience Of John Philip
Sousa, when he took his band to Sand
ringham "by command" and gave a
concert before King Edward VII, the
royal family and guests, is interesting
as describing phase of the inner life
of the court of St. James, at the same
time illustrating the proverbial gra-
ciousness of England's monarch.
Mr.. Sonsa talks entertainingly OF
this experience, which was in fact ian
unprecedented honor for an American
artist The Sousa royal concert was
intended by the King as surprise to
Queen Alexandra on her birthday, and
no hint of it was given to the outside
world.
"The first intirnation that received
of the Kings desire to hear my band, /"
relates Mr.. Sousa, "was when Mr..
6 gorge Ashton, THE Kings Own En-
tertainment Officer brought me the
royal command in letter from Colon
ell Lake, the Kings equerry. The
strictest secrecy was enjoined, and in
order to perfect our plans Mr.. Alfred
de Rothschild was taken into our con-
fidence, and it was announced that the
band would give concert at the
Rothschild country seat at Thwing.
Some of the musicians could not I'M
derstand why they were ordered TO re-
port at the Liverpool Street Station
when they knew that trains for
Thwing started from Paddington ST. :
tion. These men were told to ask no
questions but to obey orders like good
soldiers, and SO no hint of our real des-
tination leaked out"
"The party, which consisted of Mrs.
Sousa and myself, Mr.. George Ashton,
Mr.. Philip Yorke, managing director
of my English tour, Miss Maud Reese
Davies, our soprano, Miss Dorothy
Hoyle, our violinist, and the fifty-two
members of the band, found special
train waiting for US at the station. 1t
was most luxurious train, equipped
with all the good things Of life that
the poyal stewards could provide. An
elaborate dinner for all was served en-
route to SandriEgham, which was
reached shortly before nine o'clock at
night. AT the station were brakes, ON
nibuses and carriages in waiting for our
party, and the Kings own automobile
for Mrs. Sousa and myself. Arriving
at the Kings residence, | was escorted

where I remained until notified that
everything was in readiness for the

IMPROVED ON NATURE.
The Case Of Crooked Leg whiea
Was SUCCESSFULLY Handled BY
William Mckinley.

A year or two after William Mckinley
had begun the practice Of law at Canton,
O., he distinguished himself in humorous
fashion in one Of his first successful cases.
Al often happens in court, the humor was
not merely for the sake of the Joke, but for
serious purpose. Mr.. Edward T. Roe, in
The Life Work Of William Mckinley"
tells the story:
The ease was a suit against q surgeon,
whom the plaintiff charged with having
set his leg 90 badly that it was bowed. Nc.
KiAlsy defended the surgeon. and found
himself pitted against John insolvency,
one Of the most brilliant lawyers OF the
Ohio bar.
Ncswseney brought his client into court,
and had him expose the injured limb to the
jury. II was very crooked, and the case
locked bad for the surgeon. But Mckinley
had both his eyes open, as usual, and fixed
them keenly on the mans other leg.
A soon a. the plaintiff was turned over
TO him, he asked that the other leg should
also be barred. The plaintiff and Nc
Sweeney objected vigorously, but the judge
ordered II done. Then it appeared that his
second leg was still more crooked than that
which the surgeon had set.
my client seems to have done better by
this man than nature itself did" said Nc
Kinley, "and I move that the suit be dis
missed, with recommendation to the
plaintiff that he have the other leg broken
sna then, set by the surgeon who set tho
first one"
