Judge Meredith 1nstructs
Jury to Return Verdict
for the Plaintiff

The case Of Lawrence E. Sands,
executor, versus Edward F. Hol-
bert, came to sudden close in
circuit court today when Judge W.
S. Meredith, took the case from
the jury and ordered it to return
a verdict in favor of the plaintiff.
The fact that the defendant had
violated a part of the deed as ac-
cepted by him from the plaintiff
was given as the cause for the
judges action in the case.
More interest had been manifest
ed in the cese than in any case
tried ut the present term of court
and it had been one of the most
lhard fought cases from a legal
standpoint that had been up in the
court for some time. The tcsti-
mony had all been presented when
Judge Meredith announced his de-
Cision and the case was over.
At the conclusion Of the Sands
. .Holbert case the case Of Shipley-
Massinghan company versus Aler
X. Watson was called and jury
empanneled to try the case. The
plaintiff is suing for drugs ship
ped to the Universal Products
company and charged to Aler R.
Watson.

BUCKNlALD WILL GET
NED SMITHS PLACE
Northcott Booked for United States Attorney in
Southern District Of State, According TO
Dispatch From Washington

Net Guinness Hatfield Of Mcdowell
county, would eventually land this
plum. The situation as to them,
it is said now, has undergone q de-
cided change and prediction is Of
fered that the appointeC, when an
tlounced, will not bear the historic
West Virginia name Of Hatfield.
Since that time, opposition OF
labor has massed against tbs Min
go county Hatfield, and has had
its effect on the appointing pow-
crs. it is said. In somewhat
similar way, opposition to the ap.
pointment of Buekwald developed,
but in this case il was not labor
lined Up in opposition. but the
"capitalistic class SO called, large
~ representative Of tie coal min
ing industry in the northern judi
cial district. They doubted the
wisdom Of appointing Buckwald,
claiming that he had always been
affiliated with organized Labor. In
view OF the fact that trouble is
expected in the coal counties Of the
nortEcrn district this coming
spring, when wage contracts cx-
pire, and ouerasors are expected to
cut loose from the union entirely,
he fear was expressed that Buck.
wald's sylnpathies might intorfese
with thc prompt and efficient dis
charge of his official duties. SEN
ators Sutherland and Elkins could
not be influenced to take that
tcontinted on page fowl

BABY J0SEPH.IS
PET Of NURSERY
Just a Picture From The
Grimmer Side Of
Life
IN G. N. SYircr

"Owk! Oogle! Goo-oo!"
I don't exactly know what he
meant, but those were the words
with which baby Joseph greeted
me yesterday when I entered the
urser', at Salvation Army head
quarters. While l could not speak
the little mans language, | think
he just meant a friendly allow do
you do" Careless, happy, con-
tented, he lay sprawled out in his
little white bed and looked up with
a smile. He wriggled his toes ut
me as he talked.
Baby Joseph has been with the
Salvation Army a little more than
six weeks now. When he came to
them he was nine months old, and
weighed eleven pounds. Skin-and
bones! That, was all there was Of
him. Today he weighs eighteen
pounds, and is beginning to eat
things babies ought to eat. Il
While he was at home, Joseph
constantly lost strength, lost in
flesh. Day by day he grew weak
er. Day by day his skinny little
frame grew thinner. The doctor
had given him up. The mother
and the mother is always last to
give up hope-believed SO surely
that her baby must die that she
gave away all his little clothes. It
seemed that little Joseph had not
the smallest chance. 3
And then the Salvation Army
took him. Under their constant
care and scientific feeding the lit
tie chap began to gain. He took
on flesh, grew stronger and is
gaining more rapidly each day.
Indeed, he is almost well row, and
the doctor says he is out Of dan
ger unless he should have a re-
lapse. All day long he gurgles and
coos, and kicks and tumbles about
on his bed, his merry blue eyes
sparkling with the very Joy Of liv-.
ing. Joseph is the pet Of the nurs-
cry, but he isn't a bit spoiled. Mrs,
Carr says that the only time he
cries is when he is hungry, and
Well! When he begins shouting
for his dinner they Just 20 and
get It. There will be no peace un-
til his hunger is satisfied.
AS / started away from the
nursery yesterday, Joseph looked
up from the bed where he was do
ing some "setting-up exercises =
and grasping his toes with both
hands he shouted at me:
.Gool Dog Gowkl Wheel"
l solemny acknowledged his
goodbye and left the room with an
Increased respect for these good
people who have made It possible
for Joseph to live.
