MODERN JEAN VALJEAN FREED.
Wife and Baby Greet Convict as He 10
Liberated from Prison.

Jackson, Mich.-John H. Allison,
Michigan's Jean Vatican, is 4 free
man. At the prison gate his wife and
baby met him and he gathered them
both into his arms, murmuring tender
est words Of endearment and graft
tude-gratitude for the faithfulness
OF the little woman who had stood by
him so pluckily and whose constant
appeals in his behalf at last brought
him a conditional pardon.
Allison's wife led him to the home,
just a block away from the prison
walls, where she established herself
soon after he was returned to prison,
and where she has remained all these
weary months OF his incarceration.
When an interviewer came in shortly
after Allison was sitting in the cozy
little room, his face radiant with hap
p1ness, on his lap sat his daughter,
two years old. her chubby arms around
his neck, pressing kisses on his face
every moment. Near them sat Mrs.
Allison, the happiest woman in Mich.
igan.
Haven't I got the grandest little
wife in the world?" he asked. III 1t
hadn't been for her. John Allison
would still be doing time. I owe her
more than I can ever repay"
He said that before his release his
fellow prisoners made up a purse of
$50 for him from money they had
earned. a few cents a day, working in
prison.
Allison was arrested seven years
ago. When he was rearrested eight
months ago in Moline, ILL.,, he was
married. had a baby, and was living
an upright, honorable life.

Montgomery, November 24.-(Spe-
'cial. because of an off day in the
city court Of Montgomery that no one
seems to have discovered before YER
dict for $12,50o stands against the old
Montgomery Traction company, even
though the judge of the lower court
reduced it to $4,000. 1t was found
that the action of the judge was taken
on day when no court is to be legal
1y held by the said city court, hence
the entire matter is void and the YER
dict of the jury stands, time of APP
peal having passed.
The case grows out of the suit OF
Mrs. Matilda Knabe, an old lady, who
was crowded under a street car at the
fair grounds two years ago and had a
foot cut off. She sued for $4,000 re-
ceived verdict of $12500 and agreed
to the verdict of $4,000 as set by the
Judge. However, the Traction COM
pany appealed from the lower verdict,
which it lost money by doing, as the
case turns out Mrs. Knabe was try
ing to board a car in a rush for one
and was actually push ed by the force
behind her under the wheels.
The supreme court on Tuesday
handed down the following opinions:

"For several years my husband was

with dandruff and my daughters scalp
became SO encrusted with 1t that was

bought q cake of Cuticura Soap and q
box of Cuticura Ointment. After rub
bling the Cuticura Ointment thoroughly
into the roots of the hair, I gently
combed the crust of dandruff free from
the scalp, and then gave her head
thorough shampoo with the Cuticura
Soap. This left the scalp beautifully
clean and free from dandruff, and after
the hair was dry | again rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment, this time sparingiy,
into the roots, and am happy to say
that the Cuticura Remedies were q
complete success. My troubles with
dandruff were over although for long
time afterward used the Cuticura
Ointment as at first, after shampooing.
which kept the scalp and roots Of the

A Novel Plan.

The good people of Orrville, in this
county, a city designated many times as
THE Metropolis of West Dallas" have
decided upon a somewhat novel plan to
raise funds for the School Improvement
association of the county. The occasion
will be Thanksgiving Day and at that
time not a single housewife In the city
will serve dinner at her home Each
will cook the usual Thanksgiving din
ner. with turkeys, etc. but everybody will
be expected to go to the newly erected
town hall for dinner, where a general
dinner will be had of the articles cooked
at the homes and sent to the place.
The road from Selma to Orrville Is
perhaps the best in the country and a
number of Semians are planning to go
down in autos and buggies and take din
ner with their friends of Orrville. OF
course, there will be an admission charged
but the small fee will not be missed and
the School Improvement association will
secure a goodly sum.
