PORTER AWARDED DAMAGES.
Lawyer Francis Gets Verdict for ST.
9se.s9 Against The Pullman Co.

The case of George T. Williams
against The Pullman Company for
malicious prosecution was tried Fri
day, Monday and Tuesday last before
a Jury in the District Court at st. Paul,
resulting in a verdict in favor Of VIII
liams for $2,999.99 the amount asked
for in the suit. The jury was out about
Is minutes. .>
The facts in the case are as fol-
lows: Williams was employed by The
Pullman Company as sleeping car por-
ter running between st. Paul and
Seattle, and on the night of March rs,
1913 reported for duty at his car at
the Union Depot in st. Paul fifteen
minutes late. w. c. Williams, the
Night Inspector for the Pullman Com
pany ordered Porter Williams off the
car. Porter Williams refused to get
off and the Inspector called a police
officer and had Prter Williams ar
rested placing a charge Of drunk and
disorderly" against him. Williams
was confined in jail for three days,
secured the services of Attorney w. T.
Francis, was tried and acquitted. He
was discharged by the Pullman Com
pany and was unable to secure work
in the sleeping car departments Of the
Great Northern Ry. Co., or the 500
Company, and after exhausting his ef-
forts in that line and failing to secure
any employment he directed his attor-
ney w. T. Francis to bring suit against
the Pullman Company, and secured the
largest verdict ever rendered in this
country for malicious prosecution. At

that by no means Is 1t sufficient now
to graduate boys and girls with a mere
sense Of their obligations.
Added to this there should be de-
veloped q certain leadership power
based upon personal initiative and ac-
tual experience. To the end that this
may be acquired students at the col
lege are encouraged in the formation
of organizations which they control,
and various enterprises to be handled
by them In the way Of making head
way at teaching q night school Is op-
Grated at the college which affords op-
portunity for men and boys Of the city
who must work In the day. This
school Is conducted by students, and &c
far with marked success.
The college community has also or
ganized self supporting kindergarten
to which the advanced students have
access for inspection and practice
work. In addition to the usual literary
and debating student organizations, @
Young Mems Christian association car
ries on an extension work in the
neighborhood by furnishing teachers
to the various Sunday schools. Here
actual work of the leader and teacher
Is had. This organization also main,
tains q room for amusement OF its
members looking to the needs OF the
social life.
The physical exercises and athletics
for boys and girls are directly under
the management Of student Organiza-
lions. The planning for and financing
of these various games call for the ex-
ercise of executive and business abili'
ty. Football, baseball, basketball and
lawn tennis are all handled In this
way.
These are only few of the ways In
which the student Is given an oppor-
tunity to develop along some line into
an individual. If he Is to be a leader
there is no very good reason why he
should not develop signs in his college
community. The college authorities
feel that the success attending these
efforts thus far warrants not only their
continuance, but material enlargement.

to retain the rights the race now en-
joys and regain those which have been
lost by the Indifference and shortsight-
