A Case of Note.

A large number of witnesses will
be in the Dawson and Settle VS.
Burlington Railroad case now on at
Paris. 1t is said that the Burling-
ton has from $50 to S175 witnesses
and that Dawson & Settle have
something like 100. The suit grows
out OF the fire on Dec. 26, 1912.
Plaintiffs claim that fire was caus-
ed by train which passed here 60

and have many witnesses who say
they saw the train. The Burlington
