ter's room in the superior court, twice

obey his union rather than the courts
in a strike. When Judge Frater said
that he 'could not admit Joliff, who
was born in England, to citizenship

his mind and would give the courts
the preference. But Judge Frater
said that he would have to wait until
September, anyhow. In the mean
time, his case will be investigated.

fire in the house they were startled
to see flames issue simultaneously
from the other three buildings, each
situated 100 feet from the house and
about tho same distance from each
other. By means of a bucket brigade
and a hand pump the flames were ex

other buildings were destroyed.

between $2,500 and $3,000 with $S00
insurance.
