 "The Personal Injury Tramp"
 distinctly new product of twentieth century civilization Is what is known as the personal injury tramp. There have been several of his kind just recently iy town and warning signals are out for others on the way. For instance, of two cases of this sort just settled, one was "the fellow with the game leg, and the other the African missionary act" :
 As to the first: An able-bodied young man, stranger in town. Harrison Lewis by name, by profession alleged travelling salesman for a New Orleans concern, slipped on the front platform of an Avon dale car when 1t started abruptly. He claimed complete paralysis of the right leg as a consequence and entered suit. At the hospital. strange to say, the leg stood a number of tests until the bottom of the foot was tickled. Then the phy- sician said: Well, you may die tomorrow or next day, perhaps, but not today s
 Meanwhile his lawyers prepared his ease and the railway company looked up the strangers record found the New Orleans concern imaginary and the name an alias. Papers from the Alliance Against Fraud society were received stat ing the facts in Lewis case and that the game leg had been played off on half dozen railroads in the middle west.
 Frightened Out of Court
 The man was at length brought to the office-before court proceedings began was photographed and shown his record, and told ito hit the high spots" which in this case he did.
 As for the African missionary Junius, alias Brown, alias Junius Brown, he was very slick. When he fell from the front platform of the car no one saw him fail. But his valise was found on the car and Junius himself discovered lying un- conscious by the track. The negro ann bulance suddenly appeared, automatical- ly, as it were, before anyone could tele- phone for it. and carried Junius to an already prepared cot around which an firm of lawyers was gath cred In addition to serious injuries sus- tained, Junius also claimed to have lost s20o, for which the railway company was held liable in the damage suit which fol- lowed.
 Fortunately, the jurors in this case could see lightning bugs in the dark, and the case went where the bad cases go Junius had done" Chattanooga it developed, just as he planned to do Bir- mingham He has now returned to Africa.
 These, however, aren't circumstance. There are others.

INTERCLASS FOOTBALL
 GAME AT UNIVERSITY

University, January 2l-(special.)-T first of the series of inter-class football games was pulled off on the campus yes- terday afternoon at 3:3O, the opponents being the Juniors and Seniors. The con- test was a drawn battle, with neither side able 10 score. However, it was virtual victory for the seniors as it had been generally believed that the Juniors would win easily Moreover, they kept the ball in their opponents territory for the greater part of the game and once made a trial at a drop-kick on which the pfgskin struck one of the uprights above the cross-bar and bounded back. The battle was hotly contested through out, The stars for the juniors were Barnes and Hill while Jonston at tackle and Haley at quarter did splendid work for the seniors.

A Mammoth Incubator

All sorts and kinds of schemes and plots are being matched out daily in Bir- mingham to do" the companies Some of them sound as clever and astute as the Jabberwocky itself. Others are jolly stupid-such straight plain fool cases that one not involved in the payment of
 the costs of defense could grin like Billi-
 ken from now till judgment, and pray
 that he might be summoned for indef-
 nite service on a jury trying such, for the sole sake of one good heavenly laugh that might ring down the years for
 ever. Regard, for instance, a case of
 a yearling calf recently brought up be- fore the supreme court of Alabama-a classic in itself,
 But to the question in hand So many accident frauds are now being perpetrat- ed In this city from day to day that the | matter seems to be almost an organized system. For the difficulty of successfully

 Sydney J. Bowie says, for instance: .I hold it Is morally just as proper in a case of liability under the law to bring personal injury suit as to defend one A liability for a personal injury is as valid as a promissory note, and it is equally as unconsciona ble for a corporation to drive hard bargain with a helpless en- ploye as it is for a lawyer to abnormally | swell the damages. The policy of the United States Steel corporation in regard | to adjusting these matters cannot be in- | dorsed heartily enough. So right, so just, | it should be made a matter of law' And MT. Bowie has a good deal more to say on the subject, looking at it. as is his | habit in most things, on all four sides. | Mir Bowie is d man made out of good | old patriot stuff, fighter for the right, clearsighted and courageous. | Certainly the subject Is many-sided.
 But the discussion right in hand is the
 false business pure and simple.
