JURORS ILLNESS
FORCES M|STR|AL
OF DAMAGE SUIT

Because Of the continued illness of
Juryman A. E. Fleming, the case of
Luckey VS.. the Louisville & Nashville
railroad company, was yesterday or
dered set for trial October 8, when
a mistrial was ordered. The case
had proceeded almost to the argument
stage. The plaintiff had introduced
practically all his witnesses, and de-
Tense had almost exhausted its num-
Der when the jurylnan took sick ant
was unable to further sit in the case.
Luckey is asking damages in the sum
of $4,000, claiming that he was per-
manently injured while working on
the wharf, said injuries, he claims,
having been sustained through the
alleged carelessness of the railroad
company's agents.
One other case was disposed of
yesterday, this being a contention
brought by Ebert Clubbs that L. E.
Williams owed him $3.50 on a realty
contract. The plaintiff was awarded
this suhns without interest.

HELD TO GRAND JURY

Concord, N. c., Sept. 25.-Gaston
B. Means waived examination in the
preliminary hearing and consented to
be bound over to the October term of
the Cabarrus county grand jury on a
charge of having murdered Mrs Maute
King. He was ordered held without
bail.
Means counsel stated he heard
that threats had been made that New
York officials here brought extradi-
ton papers to take the defendant
back to New York on some undis-
closed criminal charge" and he felt
he would be safer in custody of the
sheriff of this county.

PRECAUTIONS TAKEN
ALONG WATER FRONT

Immediately upon the hurricane
signals being displayed at the local
weather bureau, shipping interests
began to get busy and make things
safe through the night. Small
crafts were steamed or lowed to pro-
tected anchorages, vessels in stream
or at docks took the precaution to
put out extra storm lines, while a
number of fishing smacks were towed
to the leeward of the Santa Rosa
mainland and anchored securely for
the night.
The American schooner G. c. Men
gel, Jr., lately from AKIN, West
Africa, to a gulf port, was also an
chored safely under the lee of the
land, and it is thought that these
precautions, even should the hurri
cane pass this way, will at least re-
duce losses to a minimum at Pensa-
cola.
It is understood that the same pre-
cautions were taken at various points
along the bay shore, and at the navy
yard the signals were early observed
and precautions were taken accord
ingly.
There are no ocean-going vessels in
the anchorage in Pensacola bay at
present, and should the storm prevail
tomorrow or Thursday, there will be
little or no shipping casualties, it is
thought, unless very heavy weather
comes and causes the water to rise
to record heights.

THE RED DRAGON.

A long time ago when folks believed
IN fairies they talked good deal
about dragons.
Now, there lived I'm marsh near q
certain village big red dragon.
The king offered prizes to any one
who would kill it.
A great many brave knights OF his
army went out and came back with
wonderful tales of how they had
fought with the dragon and after
wounding 1t had only given up the
fight on account OF being hurt by the
monster.
Then the kind king would say, "Nev-
er mind; you'll have better luck the
next time" And he would give them
valuable gift.
There was with the king little page
boy, who was great butterfly hunter.
The kings librarian had promised him
n gold piece for every new butterfly
he would bring him.
So when the king stopped one night
at one of the castles in the neighbor-
hood of the dragon the page boy slip
ped off with his net to hunt butter
flies.
And Of course he got lost and wan
dered into the swamp where the
dragon lived, and the fierce dragon
came rushing and roaring at him.
The little page boy looked around
He hadn't thing with which to fight
the dragon except his butterfly net
The net was tackled TO long stout
stick, and when the dragon got near
enough the boy raised 1t and hit the
dragon a fearful whack on its fat
Sides
Wow" shrieked the dragon, and
with a pun 1t went up I'm the air Just
as a balloon does when you slash a
hole I'm the bag. The fierce old dragon
had been nothing but air and skin.
When he was sure ii was quite dead
the little page boy grabbed the empty
dragon skin by its spiked tail and drag
ged 1t back to give to the king, of
whom he was very fond.
He was the maddest king you ever
heard of when he saw that dead drag
on. He sent off at once for the knights
who claimed to have fought It,
you old humbugsr' cried the king.
There's the dragon you Dragged about
lighting. 1t wasn't thing but skin
and air. II you'd SO much as touched
it with the point of sword it would
have gone to pieces as 1t did when
my brave little page boy struck 1t with
his butterfly net
Then the king made all the fibbing
knights give the little page boy the
gifts he had given them for fighting
the dragon, and the little page boy was
then so rich lie bought castle Of his
own.

MIR. SLOW POKE.

Every WELL" agreed Mr.. Tortoise.
"Shall we start right now?"
Mr.. Rabbit was a little surprised,
but he told Mr.. Tortoise that If they
ran race there must be prize. They
settled 1t that whichever Won should
be treated to fine dinner. Mr.. Rab-
bit said he would have nice juicy
cabbage. Mr.. Tortoise didn't care for
cabbages, but he liked baby fish out OF
the brook and juicy worms.
very WELL" agreed Mr.. Rabbit "If
you can beat me you may have all
you can eat for once"
Then they started Off, Mr.. Rabbit
leaping away ahead on his lively young
legs. Presently Mr.. Rabbit was out OF
sight of Mr.. Tortoise "Slow poke"
said the rabbit. IN curl down and
rest till he catches up with me. This
Is going to be too easy for me-"
So Mr. Rabbit rested awhile and,
when he saw Mr.. Tortoise catching up,
leaped ahead. Then he sat down for
another rest.
But this time he didn't see Mr.. Tor
toise coming, for his eyes dropped shut
and he was snoring when his rival pass
ed him
When Mr.. Rabbit did awaken and
made off for the goal it was only to find
Mr.. Tortoise sitting there waiting pa
tiently for him.
II should like TO have my dinner
1Icw, Mr. fSSrtoise said. - -~-r---
And maybe Mr. Tortoise just didn't
keep Mr.. Rabbit busy digging worms
and catching fish. There never was
such an appetite as that of Mr.. Tor
toise. And Mr.. Rabbit never dared to
say "slow poke" again. he didn't.

All the players sit in circle, and the

given before the leader finishes waving
his hand slowly three times or forfeit
must be paid. Then the one questioned
turns to the one next to him on the
left and asks him the same question,
and so on around the circle. For in

For they tried so very hard
To pin the donkey's tail on

For they thought him big and tall.
Others pinned their tails so low,
For they thought him very small.
