Shepherd vs. City of Durham and the Durham Traction Company, was called in the Superior Court Thursday afternoon. In thia caee Mr. Shepherd sues for $10,000 damages for injuries re ceived last year by being caught and impaled on a large meet hook at the market house. He came in contact with an electric light wire that gave him such a shock as to throw bim against the meat hook. The hook caught him in the back of the head or neck, and inflicted a very painful wound, which laid him up for sometime. The plaintiff claims that bad insulation of wires is what cau8td the accident. The introduction of testimony was begun today and will continue probably until tomorrow. At this morning s session, J. VV. Shepherd and J. S. Shepherd, the latter the plaintiff in this action, were upon the stand. A number of witnesses were summoned, and it is thought that the case will not end before sometime Saturday. The law firm of Boone, Bryant & Briggs represent the plaintiff. Man ning & Foubhee are counsel for the Traction Corrpany, and Jones Ful ler for the city of Durham.

"NOT AFRAID." Dangerous Practice of Playing on the Railroad by Children. A gentleman from the western section of the city calls our attention to the reckless manner in which a number of school children walk and play on the railroad track between Duke s factory and Trinity College. He tells us that they walk over the railroad trestle, and play upon it unmindful of danger, in spite of the fact that they often have barely time to pass over the trestle before tTf an engine approacnes. vvnen re monstrated with and told of the danger, they reply: "We are not afraid." It is this spirit of reokless expos ure that fills the daily papers with heart-rending accounts of just such accidents as this dare-devil amuse ment is sure to lead to, if means are not adopted to keep these children from walking along the railroad track and passing over this trestle. A word of caution" to parents should be heeded. This matter is a most important one, and if by allu sion to it, we should directly or in directly be the means of saving a human 'life, we will feel that we have not lived in vain. A Pretty Successful Hunt. D S Gates, who lives out in tb ("die's mill neighborhood, and known among bis friends by more familiar name of Sara, went out Wednesday afternoon about 4 o'clock for a small hunt around his plantation In three hours time he bad one opossum, two squirrels and a fine wild turkey gob bler. He saw the gobbler in a tree, muffled up, without signs of life, and at first thought it was a squir rel's nest and he Tired one shot at it to see if it was inhabited, when to his surprise down came the gobbler "INEW WASH GOODS MRS.

A press dispatch from Suffolk Va.,says that when Miss Minnie Rhodes, a pretty young woman who teaches school near there was asked if she was always ready to protect herself said: 'Yes, I always carry a revolver when driving to my school, and keep it with me while teaching Should any suspicious man, attempt to enter the school house he will first have to meet bullets." Husbands and fathers indorse Miss Rhodes' innovation, which is. being copied, and some of them are urg ing that their wives and daughters practice with weapons, that they may become more proficient.
