CASE IS HEARD
Arguments Made to EniOin. De-
PENDANTS From Buying and
Selling SCaIper'S Tickets.
CASE SUBMITTED TO COURT
JUDGE POWERS CHARGES H.
LEGAL ACTION BY ROADS.

Arguments in the cases of the Denver
& Rio Grande and Rio Grande Western
railroads against Oscar Groshell. ct al,
railroad ticket brokers, in an action to

Judge Marshall took them under advise
ment until next week, when an opinion
VIII be handed down by the court.
Judge o. w. Powers represented the de-
PENDANTS in the case. In his argument he
declared that the railroads are in a COM
blne and fix certain rates. For instance,
Judge Powers said, the rates from st.
Louis to the Pacific coast are cheap
than they are from st. Louis to Salt
Lake City He said that in this way the
railroads were doing an illegal business
in regard TO fixing rates. He argued that
if a man bought a ticket in St Louis
for San Francisco and stopped off at
Salt Lake he had a right to sell it for
what consideration he could for passage
on to San Francisco. Furthermore, he
maintained that the purchaser was pay
ing as much for his passage to Salt
Lake as he would TO San Francisco. &C
cOrding to the fixed rates, and that there
was a difference of more than 500 miles
in distance

GEN. BUTLER WANTED BRIEF
Young Attorney Told to Leave His
Head at Home, But Not to
Forget Paper.

While E. G. Carrigan was in
Gen. B. f. Buffers law Office a
lady came in TO ask some advice,
relates the Boston Herald. AS
the general was not in, MI, Car
rigan questioned her, and told her
he would submit her case to the
general, which he did.
The general was to leave the
next day for Washington, and
told Mr.. Carrigan to prepare a
brief of the lady's case and show
it to him the next day.
Mr.. Carrigan sat up half the
night writing his brief. The next
morAing, about Is minutes before
Butler was to take his carriage
for the train, he told Mr.. Carrigan
he would look at his brief and
give his opinion.
Mr.. Carrigan began by saying.
General, | have made a most
careful study of this case. Ihave
the points all in my head, and can
state them to you in three min
utes."
"Let me have the brief" again
said the general, somewhat sharp

"But, Gen. Butler" said Mr.,
Carrigan, 81 had a brief prepared,

M HOT BATHS IN A DAY
South African Woman Thinks Bath
ing Is Necessary for Her In
fant's Health.

A traveller in South Africa gives
some interesting incidents about
the women there. The mother
gives her infant four or five hot
baths a day, considering it neces-
sary for the health and growth
of the child. After the bath tho
baby is rubbed with a sort of paint
prepared by mixing a soft clay
with oil. Its toilet completed, it
is fed and placed on its mat by the
fire to sleep.
"A mother does not leave her
young child in her kraal when she
goes out to gather wood, fetch
water or work her farm, but car
res it on her back in a sling,
which, by the way, is made by the
man of the household. The
babies principal food, as soon as
they have learned to drink from
a gourd, is the whey which their
mothers draw from the clabbered
milk prepared in great quantities
for the men of the household.
"YOu must not fancy that the
women think of themselves in
preparing the food for the fam
lily. A woman's taste is of too lit
tile Importance. Indeed, / think
such a thing is not known to ex
ist. Food is prepared for the hus.
band and his friends according
&C. his orders, and if there should
be anything left over then the
women and girls may eat it in an
other part of their little hut. If
not, they must satisfy their hun
ger with whey or fruits, for which
the men are known to care little.
"The meals for the men usually
consist of several courses, of
which boiled or broiled meat or
fish is the first; then follow vege-
tables of several varieties, fruits,
the clabber of which / have
spoken, and a sort of hasty pud.
ding, made of corn meal, with
coarse brown sugar sprinkled
over it. Cooking is one of the
many duties performed by the
women, and most of it is done in
the same vessel, an iron pot, with
q second pot of the same size fitted
over it as a cover. In these clum-
~ vessels they manage to do very
creditable cooking. Besides boil
Ing their meats, vegetables and
puddings, they manage to steam
a loaf of bread.
"Their houses or huts-and
each woman has One--are circular
in shape. They are so low that
ahe can stand erect only in the
center. The Zulu woman keeps it
remarkably clean, considering the
fact that not only she and her
family abide in it, but that when
night comes the goats, dogs,
Ralves and chickens come in and
sleep in their respective corners.
The door that people and animals
creep through is only about two
and one-half feet high"

Cited to Support His Plea.

Attorney General Moody, in his last re-
port, critcises the Kentucky district judge
who recently held the anti-blacklist law
unconstitutional.
He uses this case. and the action Of the
Chicago judge in the beef trust case in
support of his earnest recommendation
for the enactment of a law giving the
United States the right of appeal upon
questions of law in criminal cases, with
the proviso that a verdict Of aequittal
upon the merits shall not be set aside.
In his reference TO the Kentucky case.
the Attorney General says: Even a
United States commissioner has made the
same decision. It is monstrous that a
law which has received the assent of the
Senate, the House of Representatives, and
the President can be nullihed by the opin-
ion Of a single man, not subject to review

Federal Court Of Appeals for the Fifth
circuit. in the case Of James c. Morgan,
convicted in Colorado of illegally cutting

that court set aside on the ground that
the law authorizing it had been repealed
by q subsequent act under which only 4

The Importance of the case. as bearing
on the efficient enforcement Of the crimi-
nal laws, is obvious, when it is seen that
the effect of the present practice is to
give even district judge the power 10

in at least one Instance a United States
commissioner by his ruling has set at
