FYreman's Parents Win.

An interesting point involving the
extent to which a jury can take into
consideration the financial condition
of the plaintiff In suit for damages
was decided in the Circuit Court yes
terday when the decision of the
United States District Court for the
Northern District OF West Virginia
was reversed in the case of a damage
suit against the Baltimore and Ohio
Railway.
Leonard w. Brabham sued the Bal
timore and Ohio for $4,000 damages
for the death OF his son, fireman on
the railroad. killed in a collision be-
tween Huntington and Petersburg.
w. Va. The lower court awarded
$4,000 damages. Of which $4,000 was
to be paid to the mother, Mrs. Mary
A Brabham. and $500 to the father.
The plaintiff appealed from the de-
cision on the ground that the railroad
was allowed to introduce evidence to
the effect that the dead man had car
ried insurance to the amount OF $2,-
500, payable to his mother. He
claimed that the jury took this fact
into consideration in awarding dam
ages The higher court sustained this
contention, holding that the amount
OF insurance carried by the dead man
was irrelevant and may have influence
ed the minds Of the jury in fixing the
amount of damages.

however, failed to meet the teams of

and only lately met defeat with a
weakened eleven against Army and
Navy Prep, team that earlier lost
to Tech.
The Stenographers have won and
lost 2, scoring 80 points against 21

What will doubtless be con-

will be the opening tomorrow of
an exclusive shoe store for ladies.
Among the lines to be car
ried will be the well known
Dorothy Deed" the "Pingree"
and the Ford" This store will
be the correct answer to the
call of the Fall season of 1914.
The Smart Shoe shop will pre-
sent ladies' footwear so refresh
ingly new as to be deservedly
favored by followers of fashion.
The store at 921 G streets dis
plays unusually good taste in ev-
cry arrangement. especially in
the scheme of black and gold
which has been so effectively
carried out In the decoration of
box labels, shelving, show win
dow and wall decorations. The
rest room, furnished with seats,
telephone, writing table. etc, will
doubtless be much appreciated
by the ladies. Another innova-
tion will be a scent shoe shin
ing parlor in connection with the
store. The members of the new
firm are Geo. c. Buck and II. o.
Harvey.
