Case Comes From Justice of Peace
in Texas to the Supreme
Court.

-Four dollars worth Of broom corn seed
forms the basis of suit which will bring
some OF the most prominent railroad at
torneys from the middle west to Wash
ington next week. The case has been ap-
pealed from q justice of the peace in
Hopkins county, Tex, to the Supreme
Court of the United States, which has
fixed next week for hearing arguments.
The railroads are interested because
the suit involves the validity OF the Tex
as statute allowing attorneys fees in
suits on claims less than $500 against
railroads not settled within thirty days.
In this suit the justice of the peace al
lowed $40 attorneys fees. in addition to

The case is one Of the rare instances
in which suits are brought direct from
justice of the peace court to the Su-
preme Court. The amount involved made
1t impossible to appeal the case to high
er Texas court, but because Of the point
that the attorneys fec law violated the

JAPANESE WOMEN
OF MAUI END LIVES

Two japanese women of Maui ended
their lives by the suicide route last
week, according 10 the Maui News.
Sezuye Nakamera, aged 25, and wife of
a clerk in J. onishi store, Kahului,
drank poison on Sunday evening, and
died in great agony about 10 O'Clock
on Tuesday, medical skill being un-
availing to save her. Dependency over
money matters is given as the cause of
the deed.
The other ease was that of Matsuo
Tanaka, wife of laborer on the Paia
plantation, who hanged herself with
her obi from the rafter of her kitchen,
early Wednesday morning. The woman
arose about three O. clock TO get break
fast for her family, and was found some
time later, life being extinct. She was
forty-one years of age and the mother
of four children. Jealousy of another
woman is said to have been the cause
of the act. ~.
