COURT SAYS DAM CAN STAY.
But Flash Boards Can Not Be Added
At Anv Time


Avoca, Dec 20.-Judge Thornell
handed down his decision Wednesday
morning in the case of A. B. Perkins
vs. Edgar p. Johnson, ct al, and the
action brought by Mr.. Perkins to abate
dam as a nuisance. The court decided
that the Johnsons have proscriptive
right to maintain the dam and that it
has been maintained at it's present
height since the year of 1858. The court
therefore refuses to make an order
abating it as a nuisance. But the court
finds that the defendants have no right
to maintain flash boards on the top of
the dam and he makes an order en-
joining them from maintaining flash
boards at any time upon the dam. And
the court further finds that the plain
tiff has been damaged so cents an acre
per- annum on forty acres of land in
question and enters Judgment against
the defendants for three years dam
ages at $50. The matter of costs mas
not yet been determined

TELLS OF THE MoRos.
Chaplain John T. Axton Describe,
Customs of Philippine People.


Chaplain John T. Axton of the Eiyh-
teenth infantry gave a most entertain
ing lecture Sunday evening In Phillips
Congregational church on the Moros
and aborigines generally of the Philip
pine islands. In the course OF his re-
marks. the chaplain said:
There Is no slavery in the islands.
and the only thing that can be con-
strued as slavery. by the natives, is
that the American government Is in
sisting that the Filipinoe shall be SUBJ
ject to the same laws as the Americans.
The Moros occupy an island called Mn
danao. of 10000 inhabitants Presiding
over the domain is the sultan, who.
while not very we'll versed himself on
the history of the islands, has in his
possession solne literature which, in the
opinion of many, Is rather doubtful, but
what he has Is very good reading mat
ter aud would fill a couple of books.
This literature is very old. The island
ers also have 141 plates, upon which
are inscribed legends OF the island.
The Moros strictly adhere to the
teachings of the Koran. and would not
touch liquor under any circumstance. It
Is pcnitentiary offense to sell the
natives intoxlc1nts of any sort. Not
withstanding this fact, the Moros sell
their daughters In marriage much after
the custom which Is In vogue in Tur-
key. The Moros are of tho Mohamme-
dan faith, and do not touch hog meat
of any sort.
Chaplain Axton related an amusing
story of how he was called to marry a
couple of Moros. After travelling for 25
miles. instead OF one couple to be unit
ed. there were 30. The next morning
u more arrived at the post, and the
following week he made score more
happy.

Frederick Hermann. bartender at VIII
son, TO be Formally Charged Today.
Frederick Hermann, bartender at the
Wilson hotel. was arrested Saturday
night and today complaint Will be
filed against him charging him with
perjury. Hermann was the plaintiff
in a suit for divorce against his wife,
Mrs. Kate Hermann. whom he charged
with dcsertion. When the case was
called for trial last Friday in Judge
C. w. Morsc's court. Hermann took the
witness stand and declared that his
wife had left him year ago last July
He said that he did not know where
she was and that he had not written
to her or received a letter from her.
He swore to an affidavit for summons
by publication declaring that he be-
lieved that she was In Spokane. having
been informed by friends.
Judge Morse produced a bundle OF
letters which had been sent to him by
Mrs. Kate Hermann OF Toledo, Ohio

by Hermann to his wife. Judge Morse
had him examine every one of them
and he declared that he did not write
them, that there was no other Fred
Hermann working at the Wilson hotel

know who did write them.
These letters gave excuses why Her
mann did not send money for his wlfa
to come back to Salt Lake and live
with him again. He said that times

steady. and that he did not have the
money. The court had a transcript of
the testimony given to the county at
