EQUITY CASE STILL
DRAGGING IN COURT

The procedure in equity In the
Wayne circuit court. Craishcad
Plumbing and Electrical company
against A. II. Brown. owner of the
Wcstcott hotel building, demand Sl0.-
600. Is progressing very slowly and
undoubtedly will require week or
more before all evidence is introduced.
Already almost two weeks have been
consumed in the trial. The evidence
of the plumbing company has not been
introduced, being delayed because of
tho enormous amount of detail which
enters into the introduction OF evil
dencc. Witnesses are being recalled
frequently. A procedure in equity is
somewhat different from the ordinary
civil procedure.
The plaintiff company had the con.
tract for general repairs to the West
colt hotel in 1910. but the owner of
the building refused to pay the
amount OF the demand. claiming it was
much too high.

Fl Monroe. Va. March 23.-On
Board Torpedo Boat Stringham, Low
er. Chesapeake Bay-Again Wednes-
day bright and early, the battleship
New Hampshire rained shells on the
old battleship San Marcos, once the
Texas, while II other warshipS of the
Atlantic fleet stood by and their Off
GERS watched the bombardment.
There was the same remarkable pre-
cision that marked the shooting Tues
day by the New Hampshire's gunners,
nous ship, which had won honors at
the battle of Santiago. All that was
left of her was "a mass of twisted
metal and jagged armor.
During the night tugs worked on
the ruins of the vessel Collision
mats covered many of her gaping holes
and after much hauling and pulling the
tugs succeeded in sending her around
into the mud on which the keel rested
so as to present hroadside as a tar
get.
The range today. like that during the
about six miles.
These further experiments were de-
signed to determine the effective eX-
plosive power of the new dynamite.
Ordnance officers avoided advanc-
ing any opinions. but there was ap-
parently general surprise at both the
remarkable gunnery of the New Hamp-
shire's men and the frightful havoc
wrought by the new shells.
The New Hampshire had been Sc
lected for the test because her guns,
wsich were not considered up to the
standard. were to be replaced. which
makes the record scored by the gun
ners aboard that vessel all the more
noteworthy.
Some animals and chickens on board
the target vessel were killed by the in
terror explosions. Some of the ami
mails, however, were unframed. A
cat walked quietly out of one of the
turrets, the base of which has been
smashed by twelve-inch shell.
No efforts will be made to raise the
San Marcos. 1t would cost several
hundred thousand dollars to float the
ship and restore her to her original
condition, and she is not worth it.
Secretary Meyer, who was witness
of the tests, expressed himself today

Three hours were consumed In cook
ing, repairing harnesses, and making
and breaking camp. and the remaining
nine hours dogs and men slept as II
dead.
The time came when Kama was un-
able to go in the lead and break trail,
and 1t was proof that he was far gone
when he permitted Daylight to toll
all day at the heavy snowshoe work.
Lake by lake they crossed the string
of lakes from Marsh to Linderman,
and began the ascent of Chilcoot. BY
all rights Daylight should have camped
below the last pitch Of the pass at the
dim end of day; but he kept on and
over and down to Sheep Camp, while
behind him ragged snow storm that
would have delayed him twenty-four
hours. This last excessive strain broke
Kama completely. In the morning he
could not travel. At five, when called.
he sat up after struggle. groaned.
and sank back again. Daylight did
the camp work Of both. harnessed the
dogs, and. when ready for the start,
rolled the helpless Indian in all three
sleeping robes and dashed him on top
of the sled. The going was good; they
were on their last lap; and he raced
the dogs down through Dyea canyon
and along the hard-packed trail that
led to Dyea post And running still,
Kama groaning on top the load. and

avoid going under the runners Of the

the sled loaded with the ingoing mail
and grub. fresh dogs harnessed and
fresh Indian engaged. Kama never
spoke from the time of his arrival till
the moment Daylight, ready to depart.
stood beside him to say good-by. They
shook hands.

Kama said. "Savvee. Daylight? You
kill um."
He'll sure last as far as Pelly,"
Daylight grinned.
Kama shook his head doubtfully,
and rolled over on his side, turning
his back in token of farewell.
A crowd filled the Tivoli-the old
crowd that had seen Daylight depart
two months before; for this was the
night of the sixtieth day. and opinion
was divided as ever IS to whether or
not he would compass the achieve
ment. At ten o'clock bets were still
being made, though the odds rose, bet
by bet. against his success. Down in
her heart the Virgin believed he had
failed, yet she made a bet of twenty

At sixty Mile they restocked provi-

to their load, and held steadily on.
From Forty Mile they had unbroken
trail, and they could look for
ward only to unbroken trail

1T magnifcently, but the killing
pace was beginning to tell on Kama.
His pride kept his mouth shut, but
the result of the chilling of his lungs
in the cold snap could not be con-
cealed They travelled till ten o'clock
the night they reached Selkirk, and at
six next morning they plunged ahead

nearly i've hundred miles that lay be-
tween Selkirk and Dyea. There was
