Refused to Pay

Most of the session of the County
Commissioners this morning was
taken up with a discussion of the bill
of Sheriff Hardy for the execution of
Julius Cooper. Attorney Robert Moss
appeared on behalf of the Sheriff and
spoke at some length. The passage of
the bill was approved by Mr.. James
Bannon, counsel to the commission
ers. 1t was finally decided by vote to
refuse payment of the bill on the
grounds that the law making it posi-
Bile to pay the Sheriff extra for exeeu-
tions was unconstitutional. The COM
missioners were backed up by a recent
decision on the same matter in Balti-
more and also in similar case on the
Eastern Shore.

When a dog was unlawfully killed In
countries differing so widely as Ger

lowing manner: The dog was hung up
by the tail with the point of its muzzle
touching the ground. and the man who
had committed the offense was obliged
to pour over it corn or -four until the
carcass was completely hidden by the
heap. This heap then became the prop
erty of the man who owned the dog.
