Little by little socialism Is sapping

Cambridge, Mass s--Antonio Medeiros,
4 years old, son of Frank Medeiros, Of
Gore street, East Cambridge, had
remarkable escape from death at his
home recently. He fell from third
story window and escaped with a few
bruises.
The child while at play slipped and
fell from the window to the yard. He
was taken to the Cambridge relief nos
pital, where the doctors found that no
bones were broken and apparently no
injuries beyond some trivial cuts. He
was kept at the hospital as a precau-
tlonary measure, however, that he
might be under a physician's eye.

A Victory for standard Oil.

Chlcago.-A victory for the defence
was secured recently in the trial OF
the Standard oil company when Judge
Lands in the U. S. district couGs
announced that the company may pro-
duce evidence showing that 1t did not
intend to violate the law in the accept
ance OF unlawful rates,
The court also decided that the ship
per does not need to 90 further than
a railroad station to learn the legal
rate.
The decision grew out Of the de-
fence raised by the Standard oil COM
pany that II did not knowingly and
wilfully" accept unlawful rates from
the Chicago-& Alton railroad.
