Wise Horse Dodges
Meat Packers Dinner

When Jake" an intelligent Chi
cago horse, was being led into hotel
to become a feature at a packers
banquet 1t is believed he may have
heard about horse flesh being used as
a substitute for beef. Anyway, Jake
balked, tossed off his rider and then
squatted on his launches as he was
being led into hotel where the
packers were having their banquet.
Jake was to be used to reinforce the
realism Of the hunting scene staged
for the spread.

CHICAGO. Oct 6.-Wheat opened
easier on lower cables. and larger
worlds shipments than were expect
ed. Corn was easier with a fair
trade. The break in wheat Offset the
forecast for unsettled weather and
rains over the greater part of the

Oats weakened with other gains,
and on selling by scattered longs and
commission houses. Shorts were the
best buyers
A light trade was on in the pro-
vision market, with prices ranging

1T MAY BE ALL RIGHT.

Dan prisCon put through a bill n
the recent session Of the legisla-
turc providing for simPlified means
of obtaining Judgment in a commits
siouer's court without the aid Of
lawyer. We haven't anything against
the profession. hut il seems only
he right and proper thing that some
means should be provided whereby
a man having a small claim against
another can enforce payment without
placing himself liable to a thousand
dollar attorney fee
In Representative Driscolfs bill
there is. however, one grave fault.
and that is the manner of serving
the defendant with the writ and
summons to appear in court.
According to the new law the
and the commissioner shall issue the
necessary summons. which may be
served upon the defendant by the
marshal or any literate person
other than the plainiin, but no fees
Tor service in such latter ease shall
be allowed" II is the latter part of
this bill We refer to-
The scheme of process serving hy
any literate" person has been tried
out better in New York state than
in any other commonwealth in the
union. In New York there are a
lot OF professional process servers"
who ii given their right name would
he called thieves. and who are the
cause of more misearried justice in
civil cases in the great metropolis
than any other one thing.
More than ten thousand jHdg-
ments are obtained yearly where ser
vice has been made. or was supposed
70 have been made by this class of
court dangerous. where in truth the
defendant had never been notified
and never knew of The action until
after an execution on the Judgment
had been issued and he had been
taken into custody.
There is but little difference in
he new law of Alaska and that Of
New York, and just as sure as it is
let run it will he abused most fla
