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. , $40 for Flashing Piitol.

A meeting of the county commissioners has been called by Chairman Hubert L.

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.
