HEATING COMPANY
GETS RIGHT TO SUE

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
DOVER, Del, Oct. 16-The Supreme
Court of Delaware. in special session
at Dover. this afternoon, reversed the
decision of the Superior Court of New
Castle County in the case of the
Model Heating Company, plaintiff in
error, against Thomas Magarity, Of
Wilmington, defendant in eror.
The appeal was taken on the ground
that the court erred in deciding that
the plaintiff, foreign corporation do
ing business in Wilmington through
or by branch Offices, could not main
tain its action in the courts of this
state upon a contract made in the
course of such business, without first
complying with Article 9, Section 5. OF
the Constitution of Delaware, and
Chapter 1896, Volume %, of the Laws
of Delaware.
The Superior Court of New Castle
County decided that as the Model
Heating Company maintained no resi-
dent agent in the state it could not
recover from Magarity on its action
for $500 on the contract, and thesuit
was dismissed.
The Supreme Court this afternoon
reversed that decision, holding that
the requirement for resident agent
was made only for the purpose of hav-
ing some person on whom processes
of court could be served; 1t would
not relieve a litigant from a con
tract.

AFTER TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS

Despite the stormy weather yester-
day morning, the cornerstone laying
exercises at the New Westminster
Presbyterian Church were well at
tended. The program that had been
arranged was not carried through en-
tirely. however, but the service lost
none of its impressiveness.
II had been intended by the Rev.

name from Rodney street Presbyterian
church to Westminster church was
placed in position and William &
Mendinhall. chairman of the board OF
trustees, laid the first trowel Of NOR

Yesterdays services were identical
to those attending the corner stone

CHICAGO TAXES ITSELF
TO FIGHT TUBERCULOSIS.

The Survey: When the city If Chi
cago, acting largely under the leader
ship of the Chicago tuberculosis insti-
tute, voted at a special election to sub
NIT itself to a direct tax for munich
pal tuberculosis hospital, a step both
unique and significant for the city's
welfare was taken. And when the
board of directors of the new hospital,
even before money was available for it's
use, with keen foresight interpreted its
office as one of greater scope than mere
institution builders and managers, and
took upon itself the task Of establish
ting a. complete system OF dispensary
and hospital care for its city, another
forward stride OF the greatest impor-
lance to the city was taken. With
from half million to q million dol
lars yearly at its command, this SAN
atorium board, standing on the broad
policy which it has outlined, should
soon demonstrate that the prevention
of tuberculosis and the reduction of
mortality from 1t to a practical mini
mum, are by no means impossible even
in large city.
Chicago is the only large city in the
OlAlCn states WHICH was VOISQ a
special direct tax for establishing a
sanatorium for consumptives, although
Rock Island, ILL.,, has taken similar &C
ton, and at a recent election Cleve-
land voted to issue bonds for $3.50, :
coo hospital. In New York and sew
eral other states, the legislatures have
enacted laws giving county Of
ficials permission to erect and main
tain county tuberculosis hospitals with
out submitting the question to popu-
lar vote. If the number of institutions
being established by county boards is
any indication, this latter course OF
procedure seems to be the most pro-
ductive OF results. On the other hand,
it is doubtful If, in a large city, such
a sum Of money as is available in Chi
cago would have been appropriated
without a direct authorization Of the
people.

IN TWO PLACES
AT SAME time

Washburn Leader: Frank Thomp-
son, manager OF the Thompson hard
ware store in this CITY, has had the
experience of being in two places at
one time, feat at which many have
tried and failed. He received a letter
from Denver, Col, the other day which
said In part: when you were in our
hardware store this morning. Frank
Immediately wrote to ask them when
and why he was there and to find out
If he really had been, and was told
that man about 30 years old had been
there and had used one OF his business
cards when buying a gun. A mistake
was made in paying for the gun and
the new Frank Thompson received it
for $3.50 less than wholesale price.
The card used has been sent here and
is found to be almost an exact dupli-
cate Of the cards Frank uses.
The Denver Arm seems to be the
loser in this case.
This game will be watched with as
much interest as though 1t were q
new one.
