Out Badge*.
Gn the information docket for the Po
lice Court yesterday were the names of
over 100 people who had neglected to pay

misssed by paying for the badge. An
other lot of between 200 and 300 has been
notified to appear next Tuesday and an

LAHGE CLASS GRADUATED.
dosing Exercises of Bench Institute
Took Place In Chapel.
The Twenty-ninth annual commence
ment of the Beach Institute was held last
night in the Institute Chapel. A large and
appreciative audience in the

The thirteen graduates did credit to
themselves and to the teachers who have
had their work in charge during the year.
The musical rart of the programme, which
was given under the direction of Prof.
S. B. Morse, of this city, was of a high
order. Prof. Morse is a musician of unus
ual ability and his work always pleases
his audiences. The chorus was made up
of members of the graduating class and
the lirst year normals. The opening pray
er was made by Rev. J. J. Durham.
The following is the programme:
Chorus, “Hail! Fairy Queen," Emerson.

erty,” Fannie Parker.

The benediction was pronounced by Rev.

The prize which is given to the one who
leads in scholarship in the first normal
grade was a tie. Josephine Jackson and
Louise Bennett, who will be in the gradu
ating class of next year, each attained a
standing of 93 per cent. There has been
keen competition among several of the
grades during the year, Pierce Thompson
having to his credit 92H per cent.
The new catalogue of Beach Institute
shows that pupils have been enrolled in
the different grades during the year as
follows:
Normal department 42

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, MAY 26, 1900.
VERDICT FOR THE PLAINTIFF.
Compress Company Recovered in Its
Suit Against AV. 11. Simkins.
Yesterday morning’s session of the City
Court was taken up in hearing the conclud
ing evidence and the arguments in the
case of the Cordele Compress Company
against W. D. Simkins. After being out
something'tnore than an hour the jury re
turned a verdict for the plaintiff, for about
half the total amount sued for in its peti
tion.
The witnesses that remained to be In
troduced when court was convened were
few in number and their evidence was of
no material relevancy, so far as the mer
its of the case were concerned. They were
offered by the plaintiff to sustain the char
acter for truth and veracity of one of its
witnesses, whose evidence had been at
tacked by the defendant’s witnesses.
The remainder of the morning was con
sumed by the arguments, four in number.
Mr. S. B. Adams opened ah(l concluded for
the plaintiff, while Judge D. H. Pope of
Albany, and Mr. Walter S. Chisholm of
Savannah made the arguments for the de
fendant. Judge Norwood charged the jury
at 1 o’clock and it was generally thought
that the view of the law expressed in
his charge, coinciding almost exactly with
that held by the plaintiff’s attorney, had
much to do with the verdict that was af
terwards returned.
The jury found for the plaintiff as fol
lows: One thousand dollars for the rent
of the compress for the season of 1898, with
interest on SSOO of this amount from Oct.
15, 1898, and on tlx; remaining SSOO from
Nov. 15, 1898, and for the further sum of
S6OO for repairs to the compress, after the
damage caused by the explosion. The
claiiA for $1,875 for cotton that might have
been compressed had the contract been
continued in fore'e by the Georgia Cotton
Company was voluntarily abandoned h"
Mr. Adams, at the conclusion of the evi
dence, as embracing elements that ' ght
possibly render it too contingent to come
within the purview and intention of Ihe
law. The jury chopped off a part of the
bill of Forbes, Liddel & Cos., reducing it
from $1 .<87.74 to S6OO, on the ground, doubt
less, that the repairs resulted in the perma
nent improvement of the compress. The
defendant has made a motion for anew
trial and the oase will probably be carried
to the Supreme Court.
