And those about her health.

VERDICT Of $4,000.
Allowed Richard N. Dorr for the
Loss Of His Legs.
I Wichita Beacon.


A verdict of $4,000 damsgel
for the loss of his legs is the sat
isfsotion for Richard n. Dor
given him by the jury in the case
against the Missouri Pacific rail
road company.
Thirty.h thousand dollars is
the largest amount eyer given in
the state of Kansas in damage
suit against railroad. For that
reason the legal fraternity took
great pleasure in oongratulating
j. ID. Houston, the attorney for
the plaintiff, who conducted the
suit so successfully.
The Dorr case has attracted
much attention on account OF the
amount of the damages claimed
Dorr sued the Missouri Pacific
railroad company for $4,000 for
the less of both legs on March 5,
1904, for which he claimed the
negligence of the railroad com
psny was responsible. He was in
jured at Freaport while acting as
brakeman on a Missouri Pacific
freight train. He fell from the
step on the engine, and the wheels
of several cars passed over his
legs, crushing them so that amputa-
ton was necessary. Dorr sued the
company on the grounds that the
company had not provided SAFE ano
suitsbl, appliances for him as an
employe to do his duties. Iu the
trial it was brought out that the
step which Dorr used in alighting
was worn out and defective, that
tina hand hold was too high for
con Senient reach, and that the
railroad track where the accident
occurred was graded up from the
roadbsd instead of away and
down from it.
The case was contested hotly |
by the company, which held that
Dorr was also negligent, insofar as
he was alighting from the train
before it was necessary, and, also
because he did notice the defect.
i've appliances.
In the questions answered by
the jury this morning the fact WAS
brought out that the plsintiff
knew the condition OF the stsp
and the holder, but none Of the
,ompany's agents or officers had
been notified of that.
When the case was given to the
ury it was acknowledged by most
If the lawyers that the verdict
would be favorablS, but none had

THE OLD BRICK CHURCH.
tBY J. W. b.

(BY J. W. b.
BY the roadside near the village.
Some sixty years ago,
There stood humble Injecting house
That was not built for show.
The roof was low and ample,
Supported by strong walls,
The pews we're plain and simple
On either side the aisles.
The doors wide and folding
The windows small and high,
And humble little belfry
Stood out against the sky.
Within the holy chancel
The man Of God proclaimed,
The wonderful salvation
Secured through Jesus name.
Around its sacred altar
The saints received the word,
With love and faith unfaltering
Commenced they with their Lord.
And just outside the church yard
Amid the flowers and shade,
Beneath the sloping greensward
Their precious dead were laid.
The sunbeams brought the daisies
And made the flowers bloom,
While song bird werbled praises
Above those silent tombs.
The summons Of the sabbath bell
That pealed upon the air,
Brought worshipers from hill and dell
To join in song and prayer.
How blessed we're those meetings
O'erfiow'd their cups, with Joy,
When friends, their friends were greetin
In love without alloy.
Those happy days are over
Those forms, are lying low,
Fair maidens and their lovers
OF sixty years ago.
Twas meath that roof, a baby boy
Ny mothers love, aglow,
A fathers prize, mothers JOY
Some sixty years ago.
The man Of God by Christ empowered
The baptismAl waters shed,
In holy, sacramental shower
Upon my infant head.
The meeting house is gone, they say
The sweet tone bell IL still,
The village small, has given away
To city on the hill.
And Marion, now a cib fair,
As ever was q bride,
With thrift and progress in the air
Is making rapid stride.
Onward, to the goal Of wealth
Increasing day by day,
In resources and in strength
AS the years pass away.
So strange and new, these modern
things
Great lights that blaze from wires,
And crowded trains, as II on wings
And temples tall, with spires.
The earth her boarded treasures yield
The shining ores are found,
Machines, like magic, CLEAN the fields
And force the stubborn ground.
To give its treasured blessings up
In ceasless, countless streams,
And fill each toilers ample cup
Beyond their fondest dreams.
hsI youth, the SHINING pathways tread
To VISIONS richest fields,
And taste, with blessing on their heads
The life that wisdom yields.
Her homes, her schools, the busy trades
And noble sons are hers,
Fair mothers and fairer maids
Enrich the flying years.
And thus the Lord harvest gives,
To mortals here below,
Fromseed, sown in that dear old church
Sixty years ago.
With me life's tide is ebbing fast,
And when l come TO rest,
At Marion, may it be at last,
With those love the best.
And now, LIES journey almost done,
oh, soon my soul shall know,
My mother and the loYed and lost,
OF sixty years ago.
