Detroit Tribune.
It was a little girl who entered the
street car but there was about her a
noticeable dignity. Her feet did not
reach the floor by several inches but
her composure was that of maturity.
“Fare please.”
The little girl demurely dropped
three pennies into the conductor’s
hand.
“Eh my dear?”
The man looked skeptical.
“Aren’s you more than 7 years old?”
he inquired pleasantly.
“Sir.”
A deep flush suffused the face of
the child and her black eyes snapped.
“Come now little one you are more
than 7” persisted the conductor.
The childish lip curled with scorn.
“Here.”
Disdainfully she plunged into her
pocket and produced a nickel.
“No gentleman—”
Her manner of speech was icily
severe.
“Would ask a lady her age. I
would much rather submit to the
imposition of a full fare than to en-
gage—”
She tossed her head haughtily.
“In any odious discussion. Let me
oft at this block.”
On the next trip but one the con-
ductor was quite himself again.

IT SAVES THE CHILDREN.
Mr. C. H. Shawen Wellsville Kan.
says: “It is with pleasure that I speak of
the good Chamberlain’s Colic. Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy has done mv fam-
ily during the last fourteen years. In the
most obstinate cases of summer complaint
and diarrhoea among my children It act-
ed as a charm making it never necessary
to call in a physician. I can truthfully
say that in my judgment based on years
of experience there is not a medicine in
the market that is its equal. For sale b

THE NEWS CASE.
B. F Johnson. Plaintiff. Interviewed.
B. F. Johnson of the plaintiff in
tbe suit against the News was inter-
viewed by a Light reporter after the
result of tbe trial. He was acked if
be would abide by the decision. He
said:
“I did not expect any different
judgment in this court after we bad
been notified by several triends that
we would not get a judgment; even
before any testimony had been
heard.”
“Was the ownership of the paper
and material proven as vested in
Fritz Russi as claimed?”
No it was not; and I don't think
it can be proven before Judge
Noonan.”
"What will you do next?”
“We will take it before Judge Noo-
nan where we think we can get a fair
trial. We have given notice of appeal.”
“What do you think of those things
not in the bill of sale?”
“They had bo such things as tables
chairs etc. on the bill of sale and I
don’t see how Mr. Russi owns them
as Mr. Peck had a recorded mortgage
on this stuff dated June 2d. We are
not the only people having complaints
of not getting their money from the
News company: John McHugo C. M..
Barnes. Ed Koerps A. Heubner J. H
Stephenson L. Marke M. Roberts
all say they have claims against this
concern aud I don’t understand how
they are going to pay them out of the
$4 they have in the treasury as sworn
to by botb Russi the treasurer and
Kunzman tbe president.”
‘ In case you meet with a reverse
before the higher court what will you
do?”
“I don’t think there will beany
chance to be beat in a higher court
as I will there get justice
before a square mau. If then
we are beaten I will levy on
every advertisement or other assets
that tbe firm may get in their posses-
sion as we don’t propose to be beat
out of the money due us.
