Little Things.

Little horns OF whisky, little
cups OF beer, make a gent feel
risky as tall roam steer. For a
little season he feels passing well,
and he sees no reason why he
shouldn't yell. Then the peelers
cart him to the village jail, and the
Judge will part him from his
bunch OF kale. If he has no
money, says the jurist then,
Break some powders, sonny,
with the other men," There a
while he'll languish, young man
in the hole, while green streaks
of anguish sizzle through his
soul. Little drops of bitters lend
amusement brief, then will land
poor critters in some kind of
grief. If it isn't jailing it is some
thing worse; ask the woman wall
ing round that pauper hearse.
Little steaming toddies, taken
now and then, ruin minds and
bodies of all kinds of men. For
the more you swallow, they the
louder cry, for some more to fol-
Tow, which you can't deny. Little
tots of brandy, little slugs of gin,
show the short and handy way:to
be all in. 'WALT..MASON.. .

DANGER IN TRESPASSING
TO BE SHOWN TO. PUBLIC
Educational Campaign to Be Con-
Quoted to Keep People Off
Railroad Property.

As a result of trespassing on rail-
! road rights of way in the District of
Columbia in 1914 one person was killed
port of the committee on trespassing
evil Of the Association of Railway
Claim Agents just received here.
Efforts will be made to conduct an
educational campaign to bring before
the people the dangers of trespassing
on railroad rights of way, according to
the report. The enactment of federal
trespass law is proposed.
Experience has indicated that the
enactment of appropriate legislation
will not materially reduce the tres
passing" says the report, NOR will
even the enforcement of such laws ac-
complish much toward an elimination
of the evil without the support and as
sistance of the public. 1t is necessary
that campaign of education be con-
Quoted. This may be done along the
following lines:
Posting notices of. laws prohibiting
trespassing where same exist: personal
appeals to editors of newspapers along
the road (this for the purpose of secur-
ing their aid through the press in set
ting before the public facts pertaining
to the evil. and especially the necessity
for parents to warn children and keep
them off railroad tracks,; personal
calls on representatives of firms, cor
porations and employers of labor to Sc
cure their cooperation in keeping their
employees off the tracks: placing the
subject fairly and carefully before the
magistrates. so that they may be as
sisted in obtaining thorough knowl-
edge of these serious conditions and in
applying the law without prejudice.
I'VE are led to the conclusion that
the greatest good will result from an
attempt to bring home to the minds Of
the people Of the country just what the
peril Of trespassing on a railroad is.
and how fraught with opportunities for
lifetime misery to those who practice
it,

DECLINES TO MODIFY ORDER.
Justice Mccoy Refuses to Free
Arlington Hotel Liabilities.

Justice Mccoy has declined to modify
the order of distribution of funds of the
defunct Arlington Hotel Company,
which he signed a few weeks ago. In
the order the receivers were directed to
withhold the share of Charles P Taft
and others against whom claims of liza
bility as stockholders are pending in
the courts. Attorneys McKenney and
Flannery, for Mr.. Taft, had requested
that the reservation of the order be re-
moved as to the money to be paid their
client. In denying the application, JUS
tice Mccoy held that as the question
has been raised of Mr.. Tafts liability
would not be proper to permit him to
receive dividend as creditor. The
modification of the order was opposed
by Attorney H. H. Classic, representing
the American National Bank Of Rich
mond, which first began the proceed
ings against the hotel company.
