victed by jury in Criminal Division
OF the District Supreme Court of charge
of attempting to assault I-year-old

terday followed the testimony given by
the child herself that Dawson attacked
her.
James Taylor. negro, who slashed the
throat of his common law wife. Lizzie
Brown, with razor in their home at 2S43
Q street northwest on July l., causing
her death, was convicted of manslaush-
ter by jury before Justice Siddons in
Criminal Division No. of the District
Supreme Court yesterday. Taylor was
defended by Attorneys Charles S. Will
Jams and W. S. Porter. who We're ap-
pointed by the court. The prosecution
was conducted by Assistant United States
Attorney Charles Bendheim. For man.
slaughter the maximum punishment IS
fifteen years imprisonment.
The firm of r. Harris & Co. jewelry

Justice Van Orsdel in the District Court
of Appeals yesterday affirmed the deci-
sion of the Commissioner of Patents that
Rose O'Neill Wilson could not prevent
William Hecht from registering the
word "Kewpie" as a trademark for
children's suits because she originated
the "Kewpie" doll
Justice Van Orsdel said: THE mere
fact that through her literature she has
given publicity to this imaginary being
called Kewpie and by her inventive
genius has created a figure for which
she has secured a design patent. ac-
cords her no trademark right on the
name by which this imaginary being Is
designated.
Illustration. that the owner Of a copy
right on a picture called Uncle Toms
Cabin would be heard to object to the
use of that title by another as a trade
mark for whisky. Before the opposer
can be heard it must appear that she
had used the figure or word 'kewpie' as
trademark on goods Of the same de-
scriptive properties as the goods of ap-
plicant to which the mark is applied and
