"JIM CROW" CAR CASE BEFORE
THE SUPREME COURT.

---- - wv W. - =-=
Washington, Jan. 14.-Probably the
most novel Jim crow" car case ever
before the supreme court of the United
States reached it today when the Ala
bama & Vicksburg Railroad Company
filed an appeal from the verdict of the
Mississippi court which awarded Miss
Pearl Morris $4,000 for distress of
mind and body caused by being re-
quired to occupy a berth in a Pullman
car in which three Negro men occu-
pied berths. The supreme court of
Mississippi reduced the damages to
$4,000.
Miss Norris boarded the train and
upon entering the Pullman she OBJ.
served the presence of three Negro
men. She at once demanded sepa-
rate Accommodations, which were re-
fused.
The case may serve as a precedent
in case of affirmance as to state "Jim
crow laws securing separate accom-.
modations on passenger trains means
that separate Pullman cars must be
furnished as well as separate pas
senger" cars.

WILL FIGHT BooTLEGGERs

Columbus, o., Aug, 19-One of the
most important matters to be discuss
ed and voted on by the annual meeting
of the Ohio Liquor League which op-
ened a two days session here today,
will be the resolution proposed by
State president William Seckel, of
Cleveland, to levy monthly per cap
ita tax of 25 cents from all retailers
for the purpose of maintaining a bu-
reau to ferret out illegal traffickers
in liquor. 1t is believed that the strict
enforcement of the new State liquor
license law will force number of
retailers out of business and incident
ally prove an incentive for some to
engage in bootlegging or the mainten-
ance of speak easies. The resolution
referred to was suggested with view
of suppressing this illegal traffick.

HAYCHES
Eggs In Oven After Hen
Jumps Contract
Mansfield News)

Mrs. G. LantZ who lives east of
the city, has a novelty in the form
of oven chicks which have a thrilling
prenatal history. Mrs. Lantz had
some eggs which she wanted hatcbed
but had no hen so inclined. One of
her acquaintances in this city had
broody hen SO she offered to set
the eggs under her hen. Mrs. Lantz
sent the eggs to Mansfield and they
were placed under the hen.
After a few days of incubation. the
old hen jumped her contract and
refused to arbitrate the matter. After
all efforts to induce the hen to re-
turn to her work and the eggs had
been cold about "a hours, the lady
sent the eggs back to the country
by Central delivery. The eggs got
a good shaking UP by being hauled
about on the delivery wagon but
were finally delivered to the owner.
Mrs. Lantz put the eggs under a
hen of her own which was setting
and left them there a few days until
she remembered that the two set
tings of eggs would not hatch at the
same time. She took the much travel.
ed eggs out the the nest, at a loss
to know what to do with them until
she had an inspiration. She had an
old cook stove in the cellar which she
believed could be made to do duty
as an incubator. Mrs. Lantz put the
eggs in the oven, lighted lamp and
put it in, then shut the doors. She
was surprised when 13 chicks hatch
ed out of IA eggs. The fifteenth egg
was broken before time to hatch and
it contained a live chick. The oven
chicks are over a week old now but
are extremely small being smaller
than Bantam chicks, though they be-
long to large breed of chickens.
