OF
IMPORTANCE BY
SUSPREME COURT

CHARLESTON. W. Va. March 2l-
In reversing the circuit court OF Mer-
Ger county today in the case Hull
against Nirginian Railway Company
the supreme court of appeals sets out
that In an action under the federal en-
ployers' liability act for the negligent
killing of an employe the happening OF
a rear and collision between a train
standing on the main track and one in
motion. on a dark foggy night. is not
OF itself sufficient TO prove negligence
on the part OF the engineer OF the
moving train.
The court rendered decisions in six
other cases as follows: State against
Littleton. from Marshall county, re-
versed and remanded: State against
shelton. from Mcdowell county. al
firmed: Trust Company against
Hearne, from Ohio county, reversed
and remanded: lumbus company
against Carter and Brothers. from Nc
Dowell county, affirmed: Dawson
against Phillips, from Morgan county.
reversed and remanded: Day against
Lumber Company from Mcdowell
county. affirmed.
important Ruling.
An important finding or the court
was that in the Shelton case directing
that when an Indictment contains two
or more courts-all good-and the
charges therein are of the same gen
eral character. and the counts are
manifestly inserted 10 meet different
phases OF the evidence the Indictment
Will not be quashed. neither will the
prosecuting attorney be required To
elect on which count he will proceed
TO trail
In the same decision the court finds
that IL is not material that a common
gaming house should be kept for lucre
or profit and in a prosecution for such
offense. the court may instruct the
jury that il is not necessary for the
state 10 show that the defendant kept
the Littleton case the court finds that
where a count in an indictment aneg-
es both house-breaking ana larceny,
there may be conviction for either
but not of both; also that finding stol-
en- goods in the possession of a per
son is not prima facie evidence that
the person is guilty OF theft.
Appeals were allowed by the court
in the cases of John Philip BrogaE,
administrator against Union Traction
Company from Wetzel county ana
State against Baltimore 4 Ohio rail
road company from Mineral county.
An appeal and supercedeas were re-
fused in the case of Ira l. Smith

Bentonville and Springdale. and End regimental band, Bentonville-d epart ed here about twelve o'clock mid night last night for Fort Logan H. Roots where they will be mustered into the federal service and despatched to the border within the next ten days. Moth- CTS, sisters and sweethearts were there to be with their loved ones the last time before their probably long and hard service n the United States Army. And, through it all. the boys were the braver. With heads up, shoulders well back and shining faces. their every move was an inspiration. There was a look of patriotism on their faces which showed they were ready to face any eventuality. If by chance there came wist- full look into the face of any of the boys, it was scarcely noticed amid the cheers and good-byes of the throng. The Ozark con- pany is probably one of the best, physically. in the state, Ozark is proud of her boys and it is certain that they will give a good account of themselves. The highest esteem possible is felt for the soldiers all over the county and the spirit has been truly manifested during the past week and on the moment of their departure.
 The first big honors accorded Company K was a week ago Monday night when Misses Pau line Clayton and Evangel Gallo way, assisted by the citizens of Ozark, gave the boys reception on the court house lawn. This was followed by another recep- tion Saturday night when the band furnished music and splen- did addressed were made by the Rev. J. J. Galloway, G. c. Car ter, l.. M. Guthrie. c. c.
