TRICK THAT FAILED
The "unlucky Thirteen" Were Un.
lucky IN Their Attempt to Evade
the Law in the City Court.

/ The sensation in police circles yes
iterday was the trial Of the thirteen
crap shooters arrested early Sunday
morning al Charley Powers place on
upper Commerc al avenue The "un
! lucky number" were arraigned before
Judge Ross and then developed an an
expected state of things The attorney
for the defendants moved for change
of venue and under he law in such
circumstance the cases would have
been sent to the nearest Justice But
/ it appears that the defendants did not
like the nearest justice" who was
Judge Robinson 1t appears that they
did not like any Justice excepting
Justice Randall Jackson, the negro
who holds forth On Fourteenth street.
Hence they played an old trick in.
tended to disqualify all of them from
trying the case. excepting Jackson
they had subpoana- issued for all Of
them, excepting Jackson. citing them
to appear as witnesses in the cases.
The trick is an old one and is bare
faced fraud, and has long since lost
repute in legal practice; and there is
a way TO circumvent It, which City Al
torney Moore promptly adopted. by
Diminishing The case rather han have
them tried before the negro justice,
and then having the defendants re
arrested and placed in Jail again. The
triclisters saw that they were foiled
and they yielded for this proceeding
could be repeated indefinitely and the
negroes could be held in Jail until
they consented 10 a fair trial.
Upon their second arrest they were
advised TO plead guilty which they
did each being fined SIS and co Is.
None OF hem had the money to pay.
and The court ISSUED executions which
were given into the hands Of the Off
GERS, who permitted them to go upon

THE CAIRO DIVISION
or Big Four Railroad Will Be Asked
For Better Mail Facilities
at Once.

The people along the Cairo diyis
ion are very much dissatisfied with
he mail facilities with which they
are compelled to put up at the pres
ent time and they are engaged in a
lively crusade tor their betterment
At the present time scarcely a town
along the division Is able to get the
morning paper until late in the after
noon. and il is extremely unsatisfac-
tory 10 be so far behind time.
From Harrisburg north petitions are
being circulated requesting the su.
Iper.ntendent Of the Cairo division 10
cause the schedule 10 be revised In
such a manner that the morning train.
No. 2, from Chicago shall make con
nec'ion at Lawrenceyiil Junction with
tde early train from ST. Louis, which
would remedy the matter 1t would
be necessary only to run the morning
train from Danvile i5 minutes later
in order to make this connection
which would give Nj Carmel the St
Louis papers at a. m, instead Of at
l in the afternoon. Nearly every
town along the linz would be benefit
ed in a corresponding degree So far
as can be figured out there is no good
reason why the change should not be
made, and it IS believed those in au-
thority in the matter will readily com.
ply with the request made in the nu-
merous petitions which have been cir
culated.-Danviila Press.

more Than the year before, and Prof
