CAUSES! SUIT
Charges Against Justice of

CZAR'S PRISONERS
REVOLT WHEN GIRL
IN SMTP DEATH
Two Young Jewish Women
Sentenced To Be
Executed.
A suit which will make some peaceful
Justices elt up and take notice, even
If It does not return to the petitioner
his 2-months-old calf, the cause of the
trouble, was filed In the superior court
Monday by Arthur Payton against Vir
gil Jones, justice of the peace for the
four hundred and sixty-ninth district.
Payton asks 11,000 damages for the al
leged Issuance of warrants at the In
stance of R. K. Echols, who claimed the
calf, for the sole pupose of making
costs for the Justice.
Payton charges that In addition to
being guilty of official misconduct In
Ing possessory warrants for the
. without first making proper In
vestigation, Justice Jones discriminated
against him. He alleges that when he
swore before the Justice that the calf
was his property a warrant for per
jury, sworn out by Echols, was served
on him, but that when he wished to
have a warrant served on Echols for
the same offense Justice Jones re
fused to have It served.
The petitioner claims that C. H. Mc
Crary, an official of Justice Jones'
court, coerced him Into agreeing to
settle the rase by turning' over the
calf to Echols. This, he says, he did.
When his counsel learned how he had
been treated Payton alleges that the
attorney Instituted trover nnd ball pro
ceedings against McCrary on August
14.
In retaliation Payton says that Me
Crary, Instigated by Jones, swore out
a warrant before Justice Cook charg
ing him with perjury. The petitioner
says that after he had been arrested
and sent to Jail he refused to be tried
before Justice Cook, and, on being
taken before Justice Orr, was dis
charged.
Payton claims that, while the dock-
v ,s of Jones' court show that the pr -
ecutors paid the costs, his calf
been taken from him and never
turned, nnd that the whole proceedings
were simply for the purpose of extort
Ing fees from him. ,

Corporate Interests flooded the district

personal appeal from President Roose

Into the district. Yet, In spite oT such
heroic methods, Littlefield’s majority
was reduced by 4,000 or more votes.

St. Petersburg, Sept. U,—One Jew
ish girl has been eentenced to be
hanged by a court-martial and another
girl will be executed by Ruselan sol
dlers.
Ae a result of the shooting to death
of Mile. Semonova, a pretty and en
thuslnetlc student, In the central de
tentlon prison of St. Petersburg, there
was a revolt today among the other,
prisoners.
Mile. Semonova, who had been ar
retted on suspicion of being a member
of the terrorists, merely showed herself
at the window of her cell overlooking
the court yard, when she wat shot down
by sentries.
The cold-blooded murder Infuriated
the other prisoners, who rose In a body
and expelled the wardens. Then they
barricaded the prison and laid the
young girl out upon an Impromptu
bier In the central corridor, refusing
to deliver It to the authorities, declar
ing they would rather die than sur
render It.
Troops were summoned by the au
thorltlee, alarmed at the • determined
stand of the prisoners and fearing
bloodshed, temporised and sent for the
brother of the dead girl. To him the
prisoners delivered over Mile. Semo
nova's body.
Grand Duke Nicholas, after Investi
gating the alTalr, ordered the dismissal
of the officers of the guard, which was
drawn from the unpopular Semlnoveky
regiment.
Mile. Semonova was a medical stu
dent and was trying to divide with
other prisoners some sugar she had
surreptitiously obtained, when she wns
executed.

COUNTY COPS TO KICK
AT HOURS SUGGESTED
The county police force will know Its
fate Wednesday afternoon. A meeting
of the county commissioners has been
called by Chairman Hubert L. Cul
berson for 3 o'clock In the afternoon
of that day to decide upon the loca
tions of the three campe, at which the
men will make ihelr headquarters, and
to formulate rules for the government
of the force.
Each of the twelve old men and the
twenty-four new regular men has been
notified to be at the meeting for the
purpose of receiving Instructions re
garding the rules which are to govern
them, their hours of service and any
thing else which the members of the
board may have to tell them.
Chairman E. V. Carter, of the roads
and bridges committee of the commis
sion, said Tuesday morning that noth
ing definite had been done toward lo
cating the camps or providing rules for
thQ government of the force.
Although there may be no kicking.

Every member of the present force
has a telephone and can be located
within a few minutes by the chief,
nnd every one of the new men who
has expressed himself has made known
his willingness to pay for a telephone If
he does not have to spend his time In

A Georgian reporter has talked to
many cltlaen* from different parte of
the county, and with but few excep
tions they have said that they would
prefer to see the men etatloned at their
homes when off duty than for them to
be mobilised In three campe. It Is
thought that much more efficient ser
vice can be obtained In that way, As
the men are well scattered over the
county.
