That truth is stranger than fiction
is verified by known occurrences,
leaving to the Imagination numerous
hidden things behind the curtain of a
stilled memory, in the secret folds
Of mouldering manuscripts, in the
trysting place where the squirrels
and birds have made soft nests of
fragments of tinted sheets Of scented
paper, in the closet skeleton and in
the brilliant ball room. But perhaps
the records of courts might furnish
more material for romance, more his
tory of crime, of blighted hopes and
sof turn of fortune than has yet been
shaped by the fictitionist into marvel
Gus and interesting improbabilities.
In our own district court, last Fri-
day, there was the institution of a
suit not less peculiar in its situations
than many fictional narratives. L..
c. Noise, of Covington, is attorney
for the plaintiffs. Away back III
1882, so the petition states, Miss
Anna Myra Cooper married John b.
Carey, in Norfolk, Va. There was
born Of this union an only child,
Mary Anne. In December, 1853, this
daughter married John Averiste Gus
man, in New Orleans. They had sew
en- children. Mrs. John B. Carey

erous saw mills along the line had
suspended operations. Mr.. Heintx
showed that many Of thtse mills had
resumed. That where at that time
there were six closed, there were
now but two. Receipts Of $7OO from
the Salmen Co., and 800 from the
Poitevent Z Favre Co. for track SER
vice, and mail, express and news
agency business were also shown not
to have been figured In the receipts.

months Of $12.329.sO. against IN ad-
mitted operating expense Of $4,000.
or $1,000 per month.
From the showing made It Is be-
lieved there II fair probability of
the Commissions ordering that the
trains be reinstated. and Mr.. Heintx
is to be congratulated for the GOOD
work he did.

District court opened Monday with
Judge Lancaster on the bench and
District Attorney Vol Brock prose-
cutting, there being : number OF
criminal cases, in. most OF which con-
victicns were made, the most con-
spicuous being the Dunbar murder
and the cutting of John Keller by
Wiley Singletary. Judge Lancaster
took occasion to express his dis
pleasure of the verdict Of not guilty
in the case of the cutting of another
negro woman by Jennie Woods.
Judge Lancaster stated that he had
been satisfied with verdicts rendered
by all the preceding Juries, but that
in this case he did not believe justice
had been upheld. by the decision.
In the case of the State vs.. Wiley
the jury brought in a YER
dict of three years in the penften-

petitioners, without right, title or in
terest to the land, sold it to the
Salmens, ignoring the interest of pc
titioners.
The romantic element attaching to
this, providing the claim of petition

energy Of united labors Of one FAM
lily there is built up one of the larg-
est industries in the State, making
pay dirt Of yellow clay lying in
great wastes and yielding nothing.

Sundays Fire
Another Lesson

The burning Of the African Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, about 1:3c ?
M, last Sunday. gave the Fire De
partment short time Of very strenn-
GUS work to prevent . general con-
Migration. The wind was high and
water was scarce. II the fire had
originated In a spot where the build
ings were higher and more close to-
gether there would have been little
chance Of confining 1t to its source.
The boys worked hard, however, and
being oundya some good clothes
were badly soiled. Gillis and Evans
took too many chances on the roof
of the burning building, whicl: was
so hot that the ladders had to be re-
moved. When the hose was shifted
now and then the watching crowd
got a shower bath.
The fire originated in the parson-
age and spread to the church. Both
were destroyed. The pastor sat
awhile in his burning residence be-
fore he knew it was afire. Tier.
was no insurance, as the policy had
recently expired without being re-
newed.
