AWARDED VERDICT
Jury Allows Plaintiff Sl31 ,536.05
in Suit Against Worth
Steel Co.

After Wrestling with the matter all the
afternoon and part of tho evening, twice
applying 70 the Judge for instruction for
instruction on specific points, the jury OF
twelve good men and true returned a
verdict at 7.45 last night in the case of
Wickwirc Spencer Steel Company VS..
Worth Steel Company, awarding to the
former the sum OF &l31, $3.50 05 rs the sum
due for balance unpaid on material de
hvercd, interest on payments made after
due date, and damages for non-accept-
anec Of full amount of iron contracted for.
As foroshadowcd in these columns, the
verdict WAS compromise between the full
amount claimed, which was sl43, ,5S5.0l,
and the amount, admitted by the defend
ant as his Indebtedness. S94, ,050.65,
The award might have been somewhat
less. had the jury been required to pass
ON the case in oil its aspects, its request for
instructions indicating that some doubt
was felt in the matter of liability for the
2lo5 tons not taken out OF the 10000 con-
tracted for; hut the very clear and com
prehenisve charge of Judge Hugh Nj.
Morris, upholding the contention of the
plaintiffs for strict construction of the
contract simplifed its scope TO mere cal
culation Of items at rates specified. and,
Ia the matter Of damages at rates to be
fixed
Naturally, the claim had been mado
a. comprehensive rs possible, with no
expectation that u would be allowed in all
details. therefore the verdict may bc
considered complete victory for the
plaintiffs.
The plea Of the defense for construc-
tlou Of the transaction that would make
them part of government operation and
subject 20 cancellation when this State
~ things was terminated by the armistice.
was practically eliminated by the inability
of the counsel for the defense To find evi-
dence ~ the state Of things that wns
admissible under tho rules A motion for
n new trinl was made by Mr. Hlllcs, and
the points brought out in the hearing
may enable him TO frame his case IN such
a WAY that argument on his objections
noted shall convince the court 10 the ex-
tent of granting rehearing
The address 20 the jury hv Franklin

ing WAS one of the most brilliant ever

the COURSE Of which the motives and
actions Of the defendant were criticised.

Students in Camp

"Phe Birmingham High School boys have made great impression on the R. O. T. c. students at Camp Jackson" say Bernard Brown and Herman Matzet, two Birmingham boys attending the camp, in a letter back home.
 Major Arthur Chairsell has planned rifle range which the Birmingham boys win take part in. There will be medals for the winners.

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

While a girl can look Nobby in a pair of long silk stockings. the chances are that man would look Knobby.
 The reason why a man has to kill a few pedestrians and average 55 miles an hour when he takes his auto from his office to his home every night is because after he gets home he has nothing to do but sit around and yawn until bedtime.
 A June Bride doesn't know it. But a year from now the Depth of the Grocery B-n will worry her heap more than the Depth of his Love.
 If you are the right fellow you can stick around until the Milkman comes. But if you are the wrong fellow you will get a hint that No Gentleman stays later than 10 o'clock when he calls on girl.
 A whole lot of people are more wor- ried about how to get the U. s. out of sh- League of Dry Nations than they are about getting it into the League of Nations.
 A girl would just as soon wear long skirts to hide her silk stockings as she would wear glove to hide her dia- nond ring.
 Won en.ar emore unselfish than men You can Hake a woman happy by mak- ing her children happy.
 The story of mans indiscretion is written on water The story of a wom- aa's indiscretion is carved in granite.
 A lot of men who can converse in eight different languages have to keep quiet while their wives talk in one.

 AND ELSEWHERE
An UndeIivered speech

Former Mayor George Ward knows 8 thing that is humorous even though the joke is on himself. He says:
 Back wonder in 1906 l purchased for the city what is known as Green Springs, or Idlewild park. I secured that fine tract of hundred acres for S70,000 conducted the deal under a blind vote of confidence on the part of the aldermen, who consented to the appropriation without knowing just what was going to do with it.
 After I had acquired the. property the aldermen were delighted, and they frankly suggested calling it Ward park This was while they were flush with enthusiasm.
 Thinking they would insist on carry ing out this threat at the next meet ing of the board, prepared a neat speech accepting the high honor which was to be conferred on me and my name. But, To and behold! the spirit of it had already died out. No one said a word about Ward park My speech, ir is needless to say, is among the arr cfives of sthat which never happened"

CHINESE LIFE OF MAHOMET
From the North China Herald.

From the North China Herald IA MOSLEMS in China approximate
 IWlI S,oO0,O00, or one-fiftieth of the population, The fact that the faith has been kept alive for more than 1000 years at so great a dis tance from the cradle of Islam, and has grown to its present dimen- sions led the Rev. Isaac Mason to believe that the Chinese must have been deeply impressed with the story of Ma homet He investigated and embodied the results of his work in lecture re- gently delivered in Shanghai. The Chi nese historian of Mahomet, MT. Mason found, was Liu Chi, who lived in Nam king 200 years ago, and he gave to the world ''The True Annals of the Prophet of Arabia in twenty small volumes.
 This old scholar travelled thousands of miles in pursuit of knowledge of the prophet, and three times rewrote his history publication of which was de- layed for fifty years on account of lack of funds, The work appeared in 1795. Liu Chi begins with a eulogy of the prophet as being pre-eminent among prophets, fiftieth in direct descent from

Another HOld-UD

The highest price ever paid for beef in recent times is being paid now" :" says Jerome Fox, assistant manager of Morris & Co. We now pay 20 cents a pound on foot. This makes beef whole sale at 27 or 2S cents. This fact is be- lieved to be due to the reluctance of the western cattle men to dispose of their cattle. They realize the shortage in the east, so are holding tkeir beef for higher price. It is no longer pos- siDle for a cattle buyer to buy a herd of cattle by offering certain price per pound for the lot. The cattle grower usually says now you can have the good cattle for a certain price per pound and the sorry ones for certain price. This, of course, makes the price of beef very high and I don't see any prospects of any decrease any time scon.'
