Sarah Wig|ey's Pink Geranium

flor doubling my friends hasn't be-
gun yet. So bid you good night"
Sarah Wigley closed the door
with a firm hand and put UP the bar.
Then she knelt at her bedside and
prayed God never to let her fall low
enough to doubt her old friends.
| A few days later Eliza Hubbard
called. She found her old friend
sitting over the handful of fire,
though the evening was sultry, shiv-
ering and holding her thin hands
to the blaze.
Sarah Wigley rose stifrly. "Im h
bit poorly, my dear; amt felt my
self since my loss. You've heard
tell how some tramp or the other
made off with my pink geranium,
haven't you?"
Mrs. Hubbard was apparently a
bit poorly also, for she shivered
| likewise.
81 did hear some such tale" said
she. But I don't suppose you
grieve much, Ell, Sarah? 1t amt
as if your eyesight was as good as
mine. You can't keep looking at
the blossoms.
For answer Sarah Wigley burst
into a food of tears.
81 know I am worse than a fool
to make fuss about geranium
plant" said she, "but I suppose
am kind of low in health. Anyway,
can't help myself. Haven't
prayed the good Lord to put it into
the heart of that tramp to bring
me back my geranium. I'd had that
geranium three years, Liza, and
I'd got to set store on it as though
it was a child"
Eliza Hubbard cleared her throat.
NO" she said softly. 81 don't
wish l was half as good as you.
Perhaps you'll bet your flower back
again, after ALL"
Good night, Sarah," said she,
"Td pray again tonight. if l was
you, Just as you did before"
YES" replied Sarah, meekly, 81
mean to-"
The moment she rose next morn
ing she glanced out of the window.
Did her weak eyes deceive her?
Was it really the geranium she saw
| below?
"The Lord be praised" said she,
hugging it close; "and the Lord be
praised that didn't fall so low as
to have suspicious of my old friend,
Liza"
And Eliza Hubbard, meanwhile,
her face red with shame, clasped
her hands together and offered her
prayer.
I'm going round to Sarah's now
at once" said she; "and while I'm
about it III take this other white
geranium to her as we'll. The pink
one will look uncommon nice be-
tween them two"

Test Case Involving Right Of Railroad
Board to Control Express Companies
Is Decided Against United States
Express Company by Judge Garland

Jurisdiction over express companies
p In accordance with instructions from Thomas
G. Plat, president Of the express company, the
suit instituted and was for the purpose of
preventing an order issued by the railroad COM
missioners from going into effect The order
was issued Aug. IL, 1908. and was as follows:
Ordered. That said defendant, United States

tional bank, at Aberdeen, s. D.. all moneys,
specie and currency rendered said defendant by,

named in said petition in the state Of. South

days from and after the service of this order
upon said company @.r@ s..& .'#..g,a.. -s.,g
The express company did not wish to assume
the responsibility of holding in its office over
night the money which the bank rendered it for
shipment to towns near Aberdeen, and refused to
accept 1t unless the money was taken to Its
Office before the trains left in the morning.

would be necessary for it to provide a safe
costing $3.50 and night Waterman at a cost Of
$50 a month -: ~'s 49, +" ..'5... =,
While this Is given as the basis Of the suit
1t is open secret that the true reason why
the express company fought the order Of the
railroad commissioners and carried the matter
into the United States court was to prevent the
railroad commissioners from exercising jurisdic-
ton over the affairs Of the express company in
South Dakota, and secure, If possible, decision
to the effect that; the railroad commissioners
were without. jurisdiction and that the order
therefore was~yoid. "- .-~--s--. 49,
However, the decision Of Judge Garland is
squarely against the express company, holding
the company to be common carrier, and that
as such, under the law, it must provide such
convenience for the transportation of. money or
property consigned to It for shipment as shall
be necessary. 4 .-..
The decision Of Judge Garland grants a stay
Of thirty days of proceedings subsequent to the
entry Of the order; 50 the express company may
appeal the case should 1t SO desire.

READY FOR FIGHT
ON STANDARD OIL
Program for Proceedings Meets
n # with Approval of the
President.
BY w, w. Jermane,

Washington, Nov. THE president
will not inspect the government 9 bill
in equity attacking The Standard Oil
company. All matters of detail in con-
nection with this prosecution have
been turned over by the president to
the department of justice, and are in
the hands of Attorney General Moody
and his assistant, Mr.. Purdy.
The general line of the campaign
having received executive approval,
the matter will take it's course in the
courts, and will probably be under way
before the president returns from Pan
ANA, indeed, the bill may be fled the
fore part Of next week, altho this is
not certain.
Messrs. Frank B. Kellogg Of st. Paul
and G. w. Morrison of Chicago, the
government IS special counsel in connec-
tion with these cases, are to come to
Washington Friday or Saturday for" a
consultation with the attorney general.
This will probably be the final consulta-
ton before suit is instituted.
It is the understanding here that the
papers have all been drawn, and that
THIS consultation is merely for the pur-
pose of going over them to make dou-
Bile certain that they are in proper
form.
