NEW TRIAL DENIED
Motion Of Kinney Lawyers was Over
ruled by she Court

The effort OF the woman attorney
TO get a new trial for J. S. Kinney OF
Palatka was denied in the district
court OF the District OF Columbia last
Monday and Kinney must now pay the
Judgment or 60 to higher tribunal.
Those who are acquainted with the
inside OF the case say that there isn't
much danger Of that.
In connection with this case more
bunk" has been spread abroad than in
any case reported in long time. In
the first place Kinney is long ways
from a millionaire and Il will pinch
him severely to pay the judgment OF
$4,000. Kinney Is the owner OF the
Zimmerman mine fee, property that
looks TO be worth lot OF money today
and may be comparatively worthless
tomorrow Iron ore i'm the ground is
mighty uncertain quantity. The
Zimmerman mine is assessed at $685.
900 which assessment includes the
value OF the lease as well as the value
OF the fee. The lease value Is two or
three times that OF the fee right now.
Iron ore is assessed on the profits that
can be made from it's mining and sell
ing while Kinney gets only royalty
on each ton mined.
Kinney is wealthy so far as present
income is concerned. very wealthy for
man OF his attainments but this talk
about his millions is a lot Of bunk"
fed out by the complainants to tickle
the vanity Of the old man and lay the
basis for big verdict. The com
plainant succeeded admirably for Kin
ney enjoyed the notoriety OF being pro-
claimed a man OF great wealth. Now
he's paying the penalty Of being a
jackass. That's all there is to the KIN
ney case.

Garbage Wagon Is Going Again and
Street Work Is Distributed

Mayor Munns has made some inn
portant changes for the good OF the
people OF the city. His changes are in
the line OF economy and at the same
time efficiency.
His first and most important change
was In regard TO the garbage wagon.
This year there will be no regular
garbage man but the street commits
sioner will collect garbage once each
week and oftener II necessary This
is big saving to the people of the city
as all OF the garbage can be collected
in day and one-half and the COM
missioner can look after what street
work there is at the same time.
The practice OF the street commits
sioner using his own team on the
streets was by order of Mr.. Munns
discontinued. Hereafter employees OF
the city will not be allowed to traffic
with the city and the commissioner
must hire teams belonging to other
persons than himself for the work OF
the city.
Another order is that the street lab
or must be scattered" around and not
confined to a few individuals who hap
pen to be in the good graces OF the
commissioner. This practice is the one
that has brought the most criticism
upon street commissioners and Mr..
Munns says that he is going TO make
Il his particular business to see that
no one or two men get all the work
that the city has to give on its streets.
The electric light and water depart
ment has had curtailment, also. The
two Pigeon boys were on the order OF
the mayor let out from the city service
and now the department is getting on
with that much less help.
Mayor Munns hopes that by rigid
economy the city will be able to bridge
over until September when the appro-
priation bill is passed and the city may
get hold OF some money with which to
do work. Every claim against the city
was paid at the last meeting excepting
one in the electric light and water de-
partment with which there is no par-
ticular hurry.

PETTY THIEvINC
HAS STOPPED
DETECTIVE PUTS THE CLAMPS ON
PILFERING FOR A TIME
1s PERSONS IMPLICATED
Three Are Bound Over to Circuit
Court With Prison Staring Them
in the Face For Their Deeds

As far back as the fall Of 1918 O..
Croghan was bothered with pilfering
from the cars and warehouse Of the
Milwaukee and this pilfering has con
tinued to a greater or less degiee in
termittentIy since. 1t finally got so
pernicious and Mr. Croghan's cry for
help got SO insistent that the officers OF
the company higher up took cogni-
zance OF 1t and turned In TO help Mr..
Croghan out
Mr.. Croghan was sick at the time OF
the first thievery and was unable to do
anything towards locating the thieves,
In June 1914 another offense was COM
mitted and then Mr.. Croghan, assisted
by some OF the company employees
laid traps to catch the thieves and fire.
quently laid in wait all night in the
warehouse and cars but nothing came
OF the vigil they kept.
The Last Straw
Up until March 10Th OF this year
the pilfering had been done from cars
but on March 20 the warehouse was
broken into and lot of stun taken
therefrom Among those who suffered
from this pilfering was Ely Miller who
lost four lady's coats taken from a
bad order shipment NyIund's Bakery
from which institution lot of coffee
was taken, Lewie Carbonie lost all OF
his Easter candy and the Eagles lost a
shipment.
The March theft was the last straw
and Mr.. Croghan demanded assistance,
In fact he had been asking for aid for
nearly year and at one time relations
between him and his superiors were
quite strained. the officials holding Mr..
croghan responsible for the safety OF
the shipments to this station
One day, some time ago. Mr.. Croghan
was In the station and Herman. his
assistant was In the warehouse. A
horse ran away and Herman left the
warehouse TO assist the man with the
horse. A short time after Herman left
he noticed John Smith and someone
else i'm the warehouse and Croghan
hastened out TO see what was doing.
When he got there he saw pair OF
overalls lying in the corner and knew
that the overalls came from the bundle
that had arrived that morning. Gro
CHAN got Smith and his chum, Earl
Ponchaud. out OF the warehouse and
made. search of the place which re-
suited in HIS finding more overalls.
apples, cigars, etc. hid In various
places and when Smith was confront
ed with the facts he acknowledged
that he took a pair OF overalls but
nothing else could be got out of him.
Mr.. Croghan made him pay for the loss
on the-package at the time and mat
ters went along until the first week I'm
April when Mr. Croghan was working
about one OF the cars and noticed a
man standing about Mr. Croghan

The Lesson Of II
In telling the story TO MS Mr. Cro-
CHAN requested that we impress as
clearly as possible upon boys. and on
grown-up people for that matter. the
danger there Is In taking anything

The postman has come and has

But still, in my judgment, no penman-
ships better; ~
It's from an old lady who's feeble
and small,
The mother Who loves me; the moth
er who's yearnine
To have me start homeward-while
she is still there;
Whose thoughts to cher boy,' miles
away, are e'er turning;
The "boy" for whom, nightly, she's
breathing a pray'r.
1t tells me her roses are just bit
tardy,
Tho rain has been awful this year,
mother writes;
1t tells me that Rover, the dog, al.
ways hardy,
Has lately been hurt in some terri.
BILE fights.
TO you it's inanc, gentle reader:
know it.
To me it's mighty sweet little
affair.
Some day intend to just pack up and

And visit that home place-while
mothers still there.
