To have the handling Of some Of the
Cherub's extensive business would es-
tablish the firm on Il basis where ma

more than an entcrprising presump-

Mr.. Dcvine assumed that IL Mr..
Wallowny WAS glad to see him in his
office he would feel the same about
welcoming him to his home That
this was hardly a safe line of reason
Ing any one who knew the Wallo-
ways at all would have known. Just
a glance ut the slight wrinkle between
the gray eyes should have suggested
that Mr. Wnllnwny WAS somewhat per-
picked and not Il little i'll at ease. But

labor contract law" Of Alabama. The
question Of the validity Of the law
had arisen in an appeal of Alonzo
Palley. a negro, from his conviction
under that law Of a misdemanor He
was charged with making a service
contract with intent to defraud his
employers, receiving advance money,
and then breaking the contract. The
department Of justice had been per-
mitted to file brief and participate
in the argument of the case as
friend of the court"
Mr.. CARRIER expressed surprise that
the darts from the culver Of Attor-
ney General Wickersham and Assist
ant Attorney General Harr should
have been drawn from without the
case, rather than from facts within
it,
He asked what relevancy to the
case at bar a report taken from the
files of the department of justice on
alleged practices in the State of Louis
lana has to this case from Alabama.
1T appears TO us to be an inaxcus-
able abuse of the privilege afforded
the government by this court" said
he.
Assistant Attorney General Harr in
reply expressed a willingness to have
the case tried on the facts in the rec
ord and then proceeded to make an
argument to show that Bailey had
been denied his rights under the 14th
amendment to the federal constitu-
ton. Assistant Attorney General
Martin of Alabama also participated
in the argument.

Comparative Figures.

Washington, D. c., Oct. 2O.-The
population of Columbia, according to
the census of 1910 is 26,319, an in
crease of 5,211 over that shown in
1900, which was 21,1OS. The per cent.
OF increase was 24.7, as compared with
an increase of 37.5 per cent. from 1890
to 1900. 1t viii surprise all Colum-
plans, no doubt, to learn that the citv
grew more rapidly between 1890 and
l9OO than between 1900 and 1910. The
increase in population in the former
decade was $3.50 as against 5,211 in
the latter period. 1t will be seen that
While the per cent. of increase was
one-third greater in 1S90-1900 the ac-
tual gain in population was only
about 500 greater.
While every one knows that the ac-
tual population of Columbia is much
greater than 26,319, yet the geometri-
cal line which is fixed by the city's
charter stands between Columbia and
its full credit in the matter of popu-
lation. Waverley, shspdon, Brook
land and one or two other suburbs
should be included in any population
figures Of the city, but the census bu-
reau has not yet compiled the figures
of these smaller places and they can
not be given.

TO ACT AS JURYMAN
Santa Ana Judge Excuses DeVotee of
Game Who Is Representing
Home Town in Battle
of Brains

SANTA ANA, March 10.-That a
checker devotee is not capable of Civ
ing his complete attention to a case
in court in the capacity of juryman,
when a checker tournament is on, was
the official opinion given this morning
by Judge Oster of San Bernardino,
now sitting for Judge West in the su-
perior court. This opinion was drawn
forth by the selection of j. W. Powers
to do jury service.
Mr. Powers had also been chosen as
one of the contestants in the checker
tournament. and while he had not
thought of asking to be excused for
that reason, some one told the judge Of
the circumstances With a wisdom
born of much experience Judge Oster,
after a gentle Cdtechism of Mr.. Powers,
told him he was excused because he
did not believe that with the tourna-
ment on his mind Mr.. Powers would
be able to give the same consideration
to the case that he otherwise would.
The checker tournament taking place
here today is between members of the
Pasadena Tourist Checker club and a
number of skillful players of Santa
Ana. Up to noon the games ran about
even between the two sides. The Pas
adena players are Messrs. Wheeler,
Mundof, Sheldon, Vail, Stone. Penncr
and Day. Santa Ana is represented by
Messrs. Powers Sullivan. Phipps, Rum
sey, Brush, Wisher, Ney and Scott.

Darrow, who shot G. II. Sheppard, su-
perintendent of the Make Good mine
at Spanish Springs, New, a posse OF
miners Tuesday finally captured him IN
the northeast part of this county only
to find that he was the wrong man.
The Indian, it is thought, purposely
led the posse across the many miles OF
rugged desert country in order to al
low the real assailant to escape.
Although discouraged over their
fruitless chase from Nevada, across
Inyo county, into the San Bernardino
desert, the miners are determined to
capture Barrow, and an effort will now
be made to head him off to the north
of the Parker Indian reservation, where
it is believed he is headed.
The Indian who led the miners to the
south, across the Grapevine mountains
of Inyo county, was captured in Mes
