The best shorthand is that with which
the dictation of the employer can be han
died most expeditiously and accura tely
The method that will increase the speed
and accuracy will naturally increase the
pay Dougherty's Shorthand does do this,
because it can be written with greater
speed and read with far greater ease and
accuracy.
Giles T. Combs, who is holding stenog-

Needles, Calf, is doing some teaching of
Dougherty's Shorthand.
Mr. J. NJ. Dougan reports that he is de-

evidence Of the tremendous sentiment in
favor Of the prohibition Of the liquor traffic

Court Scores Joseph Letter.
JUDGE PETER DECLARES HIS ACT Was
OUTRAGEOUS.

on the ground that he was not actuated
malice, but that he acted under instruc-
tons from his employer, Frank Wallace
colored. employed on the Virginia estate
OF Joseph Letter. millionaire, was acquitted
by Judge Edward C. Peter in the Circuit
Court here. on Friday last, of charge Of
malicious destruction of property.
The specific charge against Wallace was
that he "unlawfully, willfully and mali
clously' destroyed dwelling house be-
Longing to Adrian Sizer. lawyer. of WASH
lnston city. on January 16. it being alleged
that he cut the props from beneath a
bungalow erected by Sizer on an island in
the Potomac River, Immediately in front
of the Virginia property of Mr.. Letter and
within 40 or so feet of the Virginia shore,
causing the structure and its contents to
topple into the river.
Wallace did not deny that he cut the
props. Mr.. Letter testified that he had
ordered the bungalow cut down.
Sizer testified that he held the island.
which consists of something less than
third of an acre. under a patent from the
State of Maryland. The building, he swore,
cost him about $4,000. and its contents
were valued at about 5000. He explained,
however, that some of the contents were
rescued after the building had been cut
down.
The contentious of the defense were that
the island is not in Maryland. and that,
therefore, the court was without jurisdic-
ton. 1t was claimed that the island was
originally part of the mainland of Vir-
einia, and that 1t had been gradually cut
off by the action Of high water. and it was
commended that it is still part of Virginia,
by reason of compact entered into by
Virginia and Maryland. under which all
property included between straight line
connecting headlands and the Virginia
shore was to be considered part of Vir-
ginia. The prosecution claimed that the
compact referred only to indentations. such
as bays, rivers, etc, and that the Sizer
island is not located in any such indenta-
ton.
In acquitting Wallace, Judge Peter de-
cided that the island is within the boun-
daries of the State of Maryland. the divid-
ing line between Maryland and Virginia
being the low-water mark on the Virginia
shore. The compact between the two
States, he said, did not apply to this island
for the reasons urged by the prosecution
Judge Peter intimated that if Mr.. Letter
were on trial he would not only have been
found guilty, but would have been very
harshly dealt with. He characterized his
act in ordering the bungalow cut down
as outrageous. and declared that such
"high-handed, strong EARNED methods might
do in some parts of the country. but not
here" He declared the destruction Of the
building to be willful contempt for the
apparent rights of Mr.. Sizer

Importance OF Healthy Kidneys.
Rockville Readers Should Learn to Keep
the Kidneys Well.

the Moneys Well.
The kidneys have big work to do. All
the blood in the body is coursing through
the kidneys constantly to be freed of pol
sonous matter, 1t is heavy enough task
when the kidneys are well, but cold, chill
fever or some thoughtless exposure is likely
to irritate, inflame and congest the kidneys
and interrupt the purifying work.
Then the aching frequently begins, and
is often accompanied by some irregularity
OF the urine-too frequent passages, sedi-
ment or retention. Thousands testify to the
wonderful merit of Doan Kidney Pills, a
remedy for the kidneys only, that has been
used in kidney troubles fifty years. You
will make no mistake in following this ad-
vice. 1t comes from resident of this
locality:
Mrs. Adams. nos | street southeast
Washington, d. c., says: whenever any
of us have trouble from weak kidneys or
suffer from backache, we use Doan's Kid
ney Pills and they put stop to the trou-
bic; | always feel like praising Doans
Kidney Pills."

ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kid
