Last of the Court.

When The Herald went to press
last week the case Of Tracy Willis
against the Atlantic Coast Line. Rail-
road Company was being tried. This
was a suit for, damages for personal
injuries. The jury found a verdict
for the railroad. J.: 49,.
:: The case of H. NJ. Graham against
the Southern Railway Company, a
suit for damages for loss of goods in
transit, resulted in a non-suit.
J. A.. Tant against the Southern
Railway, suit for damages for being
put off the train, resulted in ver-
dict for $475 for the plaintiff. The
plaintiff claimed that he boarded the
train at Fort Motto without a ticket,
because the agent informed him that
he had no tickets on hand. but that
he was put off at Bamberg, as he had
not sufficient money to pay his way
further. Mr.. Tant was going to
Denmark. The case will be appealed.
The most interesting case tried
was that of Mrs. G. ]. Fogle against
Mrs. J. ]. Fogle, suit to compel the
division of land. Two brothers, Geo.
J. and j. J. Fogle, lived on this land
as tenants in common, the title being
in name of J. J. Fogle, and at the
death of both of the brothers, the
widow of J. J. Fogle claimed the
land as per the title in her husband.
The plaintiff claimed one-half of the
property, and the jury found in her
favor. The land comprises 167 acres
of the best farming land in the Den
mark section, and is quite valuable.
However, there is mortgage on it,
and the plaintiff will have to assume
her share of the debt.
Court adjourned last Friday after
noon.

From the Near East.
How long the Arab has inhabited the
deserts of the near east is a much dis
cussed question. How long he has in
dulged in the old-time sport of falconry
it is equally difficult to say. Sure it is
that this keen blooded race has not lived
all these centuries in those sun-scorched
wastes without some sort of recreation.
and his delights today are probably much
the same as those Of his ancestors a cou-
pie of thousand years ago.
Curious to see what natural sport these
barren regions could afford. the writer ac-
cepted an invitation to join party of
Syrian Arabs for a weeks hunting. Our
quarry was the rock hare, an animal
about the size of an English rabbit, but
with very finely developed ears. which
frequents these deserts in small numbers,
living on what scanty herbage she can
find.
We started straight away I'm search of

The herbage was very scant indeed. These

birds pursuing their prey with keen vo-
racity, as though they found it hard to

rom the Boston Transcript

From the Boston Transcript
War records are constantly being en-
riched by recognition or confession. Sem
ator Aldrich, whom few, If any, reckoned
among the veterans of the Union, aston
ished the country the other day by his
declaration that he saw service in the
ranks in the civil war His modesty has
heretofore kept that interesting fact out
of the biographical section Of the Con-
gressional Directory, and only now do
most Americans realize that he was one
of the thinking bayonets'' of the 10th
Rhode Island. threemonth regiment.
Great men often have such distinctions
conferred upon them. The late Senator
Hanna kept his war service lieuten-
ant of an Ohio hundred-day regiment
secret from his colleagues. but the G.
A. r. would not let him alone, and he
suddenly found himself proclaimed COM
rade. His service. short as 1t was, was
honorable and he smelled Sunpowder.
The record clings TO some men, and re-
fuses TO associate itself in the popular
mind with others who have good a
claim to it. No one habitually referred
To John {. Spooner when in the Senate
as Maj Spooner. and yet that was the
hrevet rank he bravely earned in war.

Adams his military title of general, con-
ferred on him for his services in the
Union army?

hound was soon UP to It, and thought 1t
was all over, but no. the little creature
leaped, as it were. right out of his mouth.
One spring brought the greyhound along
side again, but again this agile quadruped
had slipped out of the grasp of his sharp
teeth. The speed of the tiny thing was
so great and his actions SO sudden that
it was as much as the eye could do to
follow him at all. Again his great pur-
suer sprang upon him. again this nimble
animal slipped from his very jaws. But
it was no good; he was outclassed in size
These great leaps shook the very life
breath from his frail body.
At last he fell an easy prey to his re-
lentlass enemy, and one crunch put an
end to his miseries. He was an interest
ing little beast, his body about the size
of rat; he carried a fine long coat. was
gray on the back with white under the
belly, having long bony tail with a
pretty tuft at the end. But his hind legs
were his great feature. They were very
long. being like those of the kangaroo.
specially adapted for jumping. l noted.
too. that each hind foot was provided
with only three toes, whereas on those
Of the forelegs. which were very short,
there were the normal five. Altogether he
was a most interesting and sporting spe-
cimen.
