A Case of Literary
Larceny.

Robinson. Of the Journal staff wrote
an o. Henry story which she tried 10
dispose of to a syndicate but which
was apparently rejected although the
manuscript was never returned.
Later. The Pensacola Journal pub
aished the story and. white 1t was a
fne piece Of literature in itself. It at
tracted more than ordinary attention
throughout Florida because OF the fact
that Florida newspaper man. Uncle
Joe Dd,ron,s was pne OF the two central
figures in Il, osaenry being the other

It. except for brief introduction. IN
.The Esoolxnaan" with the name of Ar
thur w. Faxe as Its author.
This seems to be case OF literary
larceny on the part OF someone. The
story was unique in that 1t dealt with
incidents in the life OF o. Henry and
phases OF his character, as told by a
man who was with him at the time,
that had never been published in all
OF the stories that had been written
about the great author. There ought
to be some way OF Furnishing a person
or a publication which steals litera-
ture just as can be done Il the theft
was of money. but as Miss Robinson
did not tasne the precautton to copy
right her story she can probably do
nothing about It.

Monroe's Decision.
The news comes from Pensacola
that the Florida labor law, passed by
the last legislature, making it a mis-
demeanor to contract to perform labor,
and after securing money or other
things of value by virtue of said con-
tract then failing to live UP to it, has
been declared null and void by judge
Munroe Of the court Of record OF that
city. The decision of the court was
made in q. case brought before 1t
charging violation of the Florida Ia
Dor law, and was based on the ground
that this law was in direct conflict
with the federal statute relating to
peonage- The court cited a decision of
the United States supreme court in a
similar case carried up to it from Ala

undoubtedly be sustained by the SUI
