JURY RETURNS VERDICT AWARD.
ING PLAINTIFFS 5000 AGAINST
DRUG FIRM.
ACTUAL DAMAGES FIXED
IN SUM OF ONLY $50
Rest of Judgment is characterized as
Exemplary Damages - Defense
Claims Victory, and Plaintiff is Not
Likely to Appeal-Widow SOUGHT
$4,000.

Damages in the sum of 5000 were
awarded Mrs. Enola Bennett Friend by
the jury sitting in her case in which
she sought damages in the sum of S25.-
OO0 for the sale of liquor to her hus-
band, the late Harry L. Friend, on the
ground that the Mcbride and Will
Drug Company, defendant in the ac-
ton, had been responsible for Mr..
Friend becoming an habitual drunkard.
and that his death was caused by his
over indulgence in liquor
The jury, which retired Saturday af-
ternoon at 5 o'clock, finished its DELHI
erations and returned a sealed verdict
at o'clock Sunday morning. The YER
dlct was opened in court this morning
at O'Clock. The actual damages in
the case We're fixed at $50, and exem-
plary damages in the sum of $3.50
Defense Claims Victory.
The defense is naturally elated over
the verdict, and is claiming a victory.
Mr.. Northup said that the only disap-
pointment was that there was any YER
dict for the plaintiff, as he had con-
fidently expected that no damages
would be shown.
Mr.. Carney, for the plaintiff, did not
express an opinion of being satisfied
in the verdict, but said that so far as
he knew there would not be an appeal
taken. This opinion was also expressed
by ". L. Bennett, brother of Mrs.
Friend
The fact that the verdict is for the
plaintiff places the burden of the costs
on the defendant, and the costs have
been estimated at about 5000

A RED ROOSTER

The News reporter has been attend
inp every session Of the Justice Court
this week, waiting TO get the facts con
ccrning certain charges that have been
sur. ont for several days. The charges
mr.. Of a very serious nature, and the
parties concerned belong 10 the best
families OF the city. On account Oh
the very serious nature of the anair'
aud .he prominence Of the parties, the
News has been anxious to give the
facts To it's readers and has beer on
the alert every day for anything that
should develop. While we cannot now
piys all the facts and the names OF
the parties, we may state that a eer'
tain Attorney Of the city has been
guilty OF u misdemeanor that would DO
u surprise to has friends aud n o
To this community. II seems that the
attorney IL very fond Of chicken, u
sometim between Saturday and Mon
day was tempted to take away from a
| neiRhbor. one fne red rooster, carry
said rooster to his residence, and then
and there, by malice aforethought, did
w~iifully aud without provoeation, wiring
the head from the said red rooster, from
which wiring, the aforesaid red rooster
then aud there died. OF course the
guilty party claims that he was under
the Impression that the rooster was
his property, but the real owner has
convinced him that such was not the
case. We trust that the matter may
be settled to the satisfaction Of all
parties and that there viii be no blood
shed over the affair.

THE JUDGMENT OF DANIEL

women in gay skirts, with naked babies
astride their hips. all We're intently
watching a transaction within the cir
Gle. The drums had ceased, and in a
silence of brOiling noon, Dan heard the
wall of a child. Alone in the center
stood a little girl, bound with nanas
cord, whimpeTing before an altar oil
fresh sods; and striding toward her
horrid with finery. and paint, a tall
priest held aloft knife
Dan seized his interpreter by the arm
and plowed through the ring of VIII
layers.
Stop" he cried in Malay. What god
demands this sacrifice?'
The interpreter echoed the question
loud as a herald. The astonished priest
replied:
'Keelu."
"A local cooling" sneered Mr..
Towers. Il am high priest to Arvana
god of swordhilts. 1 am king of the
Loud Magic"
A murmur circled sthe villagers and
died in a pulsing silence
Dan stopped, cut the cords and patted
the head of the terrified baby. She
scampere1 off like a rabbit; and with
cry of joy little brown woman ran
forward and caught her up.
Suddenly the priest rushed with the
knife. But Dan was an old hand at
gunplay-the magic spoke first, and the
savage fell sprawling.
There is my sacrifice!" shouted the
new priest.
He paused for the drama to take ef-
feet; then, before an uproaE could rise,
called loudly:
There shall be no more killing of
children. The god is satisfied. Send
the kapala to me at sunset, and 1 shall
tell him how to end your troubles W tn
out payment and without sacrifice"
Turning, he stalked out of the vii
lage, followed by his troops. The wick
er gates slid to. amid shouts and babel.
All that afternoon a loud chatter of
politics resounded from within. But at
sunset, while Dan sat waiting on his
camp stool under a tamarind tree, the
headman drew near, humby, for con-
ference.
'+Tuan Sultan" translated the inter-
prefer. with a new and deeper respect,
"the jungle fighters and devils men
whom the Tuan Sultan gloriously over
threw from his path, these and others
like them have long harassed the viii
lage. Many years and every year it
has been the same. Also there has been
famine The priest that the Tuan Sui
tan slew he would have offered I'D the
Laughter VI the ko~kottd against TIE tN
luck. Therefore the heart of the ka-
pala runs towards this new god, Sparer
of Children"
Gee" remarked the sultan. This is
what Scarlet calls d little bit of all
right"
But first the kapaia asks. What
will the new god perform upon these
jungle men,"
This said Dan. kalong hung
head downward from a top branch; he
ierked out his revolver, fired, and the
huge bat thumped the ground Ike a

stroy the enemies of this campong."
The kneeling priest bowed his fore
head to the ground.

He set out fields of millet. He found

see the girls. in pink or yellow loin-

head burdens as procession of Greek
goddesses, file through the gate, re-
turning from the mountain village
markets; could see the naked children
scampering in the dust, their bellies
tight-ba1looned with fatness.
The six months flowed by, and others,
before he explored the countryside for
gold. He was gone many days, and
when he returned. they saw that the
heart of the sultan was heavy. Often
in the cool half-light before dawn,
when the tilIers of the field trudged by,
