narrow strips of wood, b C. on each

Thus you have a sliding door, which
opens and shuts with the greatest ease.
The front of the coop is inclosed with
lath or narrow strips, placed two and a
half to three inches apart. The top
should he covered with a good grade of
roofing paper to make it waterproof.
A coop Of this sort should be two to
two and a half feet long, sixteen inches
deep and not less than twenty inches
high, while two feet would be better.
The simplest coop is the common A
shaped coop. 1t is quickly and easily
made. This coop may be constructed
either with or without a floor. A floor
is desirable, except during warm
weather and where the soil drains
quickly.
The box coop shown in the second
sketch in some respects is preferable
to the A shaped coop, for in the latter
the hen can stand upright only near
the middle Of the coop, while with the
box coop the entire floor space is avail
able for her and the chickens. The
box coop is also more easily cleaned.
If desired a small covered run can
be made for each coop. This Is espe-
cially desirable If there is danger Of
losses from cats, hawks, etc.
Fresh air is essential for the health

II Is Economy to Build Them Neatly
and Of Good Material.
As poultry houses on farms have
to be repaired often as a general rule,
would it not be better to build more
substantial ones at first and save the
trouble and expense of continually i'm
proving them? Let US consider this
matter. The carpenter usually thinks
that any kind Of wood will do for q
henhouse, and in that be is much mis-
taken. Only the well seasoned wood
should be used, for when the damp
days arrive, the house having no heat
in it, the boards will shrink and eX-
pand until they are out of shape more
or less, and then there are cracks to
contend with. Use the best wood in
the first place.
Another point worth considering is
that of planning the boards that are to

Any field with a hard pan subsoil with

ARREST OF A FUGITIVE
WITHOUT A WARRANT
Decision of Supreme Court
important.

For a city police officer to enter a
house and attempt to arrest without
warrant a person therein for the
violation of city ordinance or COM
hitting a misdemeanor not commit
ted in the officers presence, is to
commit double trespass, which may
be resisted by the person sought even
to the taking of life.
Thus holds the court of appeals in
a sweeping decision in a case ap-
pealed from the superior court Of
Bibb County
Under the decision, Julius Holmes,
negro recently sentenced to twenty
years for killing a man assisting two
policemen to arrest him under cir
cumstances as stated above will prob
ably go free.
1t places stringent limitations on
the power of police officers and will
probably result in more caution be-
ing exercised by them.
when the policemen went into the
defendants house to arrest him with
out warrant, they were trespassers
in a double sense" says the court,
in the opinion drawn by Judge B. H.
Hill, "trespassers upon the right of
domicile.
The defendant had a right to resist
both trespassers and to use in the
resistance as much force as neces-
sary to make effective.
when the officers attempted to make
an illegal arrest of the defendant,
forcibly pulled him from his house
and endeavored to handcuff him,
they were guilty of an assault and
battery
"The defendant, thus Illegally de-
prived Of his liberty, had the right
to regain it and use force necessary
for that purpose. If he succeeded in
jerking loose from the officers, ran
into his house, got his gun and att
tempted to escape, the officers had
no right to shoot him.
IN the language of Chief Justice
Bleckley: Every man, however gull
ty, has right to shun illegal arrest
by flight"

CHARMING LOVE
STORY IN PLAY

The love interest in 'The Traitor
is much greater than in its prede-
.cessor, THE Clansman" In fact the
love story is the very keynote of the
new play. This is as it should be
for romance is always pleasing to
the public. No theatre can succeed
that does not have the patronage of
women, and they always want a
pretty love story in play and hap
Ply ending. No play that tells such
a fascinating love story as that of
Stella Butler and John Graham
could fail to make a great success.
