"socIAsLE sToNEsp

In Nevada are found curious min eral specimens known as "sociable stones" No better name could be giv- en them, since when a few are distri- buted over a level floor two or three feet apart they will begin to move toward one another to a common cen ter with an alaerity that is ludierous.
 Campers first noticed these stones. They had used wrapping paper for a tablecloth and weighted the corners with some of the stones spread over the top of a boulder. A few moments later one of the men noticed that the paper was Tapping in the breeze and that the four or five stones were hud dled in a grop in the middle of the paper like a nest full of eggs. He thought the wind was responsible strengthened them and added more stones.
 The next time he looked around the stones were back in the heap again. Once more he replaced the stones and sat down to watch them. They began to roll and hitch along toward one another again until they were in a pile.

ONE DRINK AND
CAR HIT POLE
Cunningham Gets Two Days
as Alleged Intoxicated \
Driver
DENIES CHARGE,
HE TAKES APPEAL

On a charge OF operating an auto
mobile while intoxicated. Charles
Cunningham. who drove his car
against a pole at Tenth and King
streets, about week ago. was fined
500 and costs and sentenced to
two days imprisonment by Judge
Hastings in Municipal Court this
morning. Philip L. Garrett, coun-
sci for Cunningham, gave notice of
an appeal and bail was fixed at 800.
Cunningham denied that he was
drunk, but said he had been given
one drink prior to the accident. He
said he ran into the pole in avoiding
collision with another machine. His
alleged staggering at the time Of his
arrest was due, he said, to his suf-
fering with rheumatism. A bottle
of liquor found in the machine did
not belong to him, he claimed.
Officers Lynch and Dutton testt-
fed that Cunningham was drunk.
Another witness who happened to
pass the scene Of the accident and
talked to Cunningham said the de-
PENDANT was sober.

WHALEN Holds
AUTO TRUCK
Constable Refuses to Give
Up Machine Until Owner
Gets License
Acknowledgement
ASKED FOR DECISION

Willard Smallwood and John Ste
vens, employees OF the Livingstone
Construction Company. of Washing
ton, D. c., were given hearings be-
fore Magistrate Gluckman this
morning on charges OF having in
their possession an untitled auto
mobile truck and operating a motor
vehicle without State license.
The automobile truck in question.
one used in road construction work
on the Hamburg road, was seized by
Constable Jerry Whalen, of New
Castle, and is now held in Whites
stable, Fourth and French streets.
The constable refuses to give 1t up
until the present controversy is set
tied, although he was advised this
morning by the magistrate 10 do so
as the men charged with the viola
ton are now under bond awaiting an
opinion from the attorney general.
Whalen says he has a number Of
times since August notified the men
that they would have to take out a
Delaware license. but that they have
ignored his advice. and he proposes
10 hold on to the car until they get
the license and have the car titled
in this State.
According 10 an opinion given the
local magistrate by Assistant City
Solicitor Green, they shall be guided
in such cases by the laws prevailing
in the State in which the automobile
Is licensed. In other words Della
ware reciprocates with her neighbor-
ing States as far as automobile laws
are concerned. In this case It IS
claimed the car was licensed IN
and is therefore not per-,
to operate in Delaware. over
one trip a week, without taking out
an additional license.
Magistrate Gluckman in summing
up the case said that he did not care
10 give any decision without first
aking the matter up with the attor-
ley general. as we have no law bear
ng on the subject except that re-
erred 20 in Mr.. Green's decision, !
md held the men under bond for
me week.
