Ray to-day rendered a judicial opinion as to the color of Annie Morris, an aged woman of this city.
 Many years ago fin Montgomery Ala, John Morris, a negro, married Annie Morris. Josie Morris now Josie King. is a child of the union. Twelve years ago they separated and Morris married Emma Morris. from whom he after wards separated. Morris died recently. leaving $500 insurance in the Knights of Pythias (colored). Emma Morris collected the insurance by securing A lapsed policy, erasinR the name on it and substituting therefor John Nor ris." She deposited the money in a bank and Josie King garnished 1t. claiming S100 of the fund. The defense claimed that Annie Morris Is a white woman, and that Morris marriage to her was hence illegal and Josie King was an H. legitimate child. The plaintiff claimed that Annie Morris Is a negro. that the first marriage was legal and that the second marriage was illegal as no di- vorce from the first wife had been ob- tained n
 Annie Morris stated that she did not know whether she was white or col ored. She said that she had spent her life among negroes. She looks like a white person. Judge Ray decided she had negro blood in her veins and de- cided the case In favor of her daughter, Josie King. The case will be appeal
