The Tinies’ snow house proved real strong, and in it they slept all night long. Perhaps you'll think that they were cold, but such was not the case. Wee Scouty had a large knapsack which* often hung down o'er his back, and in it were two blankets which they promptly put in place. They cuddled close and tucked in tight, and that’s the way they slept all night. When morning came they all jumped up and ran out in the sun. Old Sol was shining from above, and Choppy said, “Oh, gee, I love to rise at early morning, ’cause that's when I have my fun." He stood and slowly rubbed his, eyes, then took his morning exercise by slowly leaning forward ’till his fingers touched the ground. The others watched him for a spell, and then they thought they might as well join in and do the limber stunt. They found it lots of fun. ‘ Let’s make a snow man,” Ukey said.

JUDICIAL SALE OF RAILROAD SOUGHT $1,800,000 Bonds Past Due, Stockholders Charge, Foreclosure of a mortgage on the Cincinnati, Richmond and Ft. Wayne Railroad, following a $1,300,000 bond issue June 1, 1871, was demanded in a petition filed in Federal Court Thursday by Henry TatnalJ of Bryn Mawr, Pa., trustee for the stockholders. -George W. Cass of Pittsburgh and Charles Lanier of New York City were original trustees, appointed when the issue of 1,800 bonds of SI,OOO each was floated, the money being used to improve the short line railroad connecting with the Big Four between Richmond and Adams, Ind. Cass died, leaving Lanier sole trustee, who later resigned, Tatnall succeeding him. In October, 1922, stockholders owning bonds iti excess of SIOO,OOO ordered legal proceedings to be instituted to secure their bonds, which became due June 1, 1921, fifty years after the date of issue. The petition asks for a judicial sale of the road properties, and an injunction preventing any sale by the railroad authorities in the meantime. GANG BATTLE FEARED Bu 1 nited Press CHICAGO, Dec. 31.—Further flareups of Chicago’s gang warfare were anticipated here today, following the finding of the body of Hillary Clements, alleged beer runner, here last night. Clements, a leading member of the gang faction, was found murdered under an untenanted cottage in the outskirts of Chicago. He had been dead about ten days, police said. Clements was known as an aid of “Mitters” Foley, murdered last summer. ‘Diamond Joe” Saltls, alleged rival of Foley, tried and acquitted of Foley’s murder, was being sought today for questioning in the Clements killing. John Clements, brother of the murdered man, visited police a week ago, saying he knew his brother had been murdered, and made an appeal for the slayers to “give up the body, so we can give it a decent burial.” BENEFIT FOR* MINE VICTIMS Martin’s dancing club will hold a dance for benefit of the sufferers of the Francisco mine disaster Tuesday night at East and Michigan Sts.

I'll let him wear my hat.” Again they made a pile of snow, as Carpy shouted, “Sure, let’s go, but please don’t make the pile too big, or he will be too’ fat.” Two funny legs were shortly, made. They stood them up and there they stayed, and then they built a aody that stood two feet from the ground. The whole bunch laughed to see the man. Now, just imagine if you can, how queer he must have looked, for he was big and white and round. Then when the arms were patched in place, they rounded out a friendlyface, and as they put the head on, all the Tinies yelled, “Hurray.” Said Scouty, “Gee, he sure looks great. 'Tls well we’re through. It’s getting late.” And Carp answered "We, have done a good job for today.” (The Tinies meet Master 1927 in the next story.) (Copyright. 1926, NEA Service Inc.)

NEW YEAR’S DAY AT END ON ISLANDS Chatham Group Began 1927 Early Today, First Place in World. Bu United Prest CHRISTCHURCH. New Zealand. Dec. 31.—New Years day commenced in the Chatham glands 414 miles Southeast of Wellington, Australia, at 7 o’clock this morning. Eastern standard time. By the time the New Year’s sirens shriek in New York those of the Chatham Islanders, who have been able to get up following their festivities, will have laid away the wet towels from the feverish heads, will have had breakfast, luncheon and tea and be thinking about what their stomachs will stand for the evening meal of Jan. 1, 1927. Os all the people in the world the little colony of 220 Britishers In the Chatham Islands are each year the first to greet the New Year. Theoretically the symmetrical 180th meridian from Greenwich is the starting point of every day. But this meridian cuts through several islands and the northeast corner of Asia, and its use for time purposes would involve awkward calendar complications. To avoid this, an arbitrary meridian has been adopted called the Admiralty Date Line, and made to curve east and west of the geographical 180th meridian in such a way that it lies always in the ocean. Chatham Islands lie near enough to the line to see the New Year born.

RECORD SUM OE MONEY INVOLVED IN RAILROAD CASE Charles Evans Hughes Will Argue Before Supreme Court Monday. Time* Washinrtton Burratt, IMi Sew York Avenue WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.—Charles Evans Hughes will face his *" v - —"-r associates on the bench of tin .. and States Supreme Court next -Monday and will try to convince them that tlie railroads of the United States are wortli about twice as much as the Interstate Commerce Commission thinks they are. On the success of his undertaking will depend what is generally conceded to be the largest financial stake ever fought for in any court in any land. The particular case in which Hugiies will appear as railroad counsel is that involving the valuation of the Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad. When the Interstate Commerce Commission completed its valuation of the Los Angeles & Salt Lake, it reported that it was worth $45,200,000. The railroad company also did some figuring and concluded the property \t-as worth $70,000,000. It is for the $70,000,000 valuation that Hughes will argue before the Supreme Court. If he wins, the Salt Lake Railroad will be authorized to charge rates sufficient to pay 6 per cent interest on $70,000,000, or $24,800,000 more than the commission would allow. Although millions are involved in the case, its principal importance lies in the fact that precedents will be established that will govern the disposition of billions of dolllars. The railroads want authority to charge rates that will yield 6 per cent on what it would cost to re-

produce them today. The commission in its railroad valuations has argued that much of the railroad building was done when prices were less than half as high as they are at present, and that the valuations should be scaled down accordingly. If Hughes convinces the Supreme Court, ihe railroads will be allowed to charge rates to yield 6 per cent on not less than $35,000,000,000, and perhaps as much as $50,000,000,000. At present rates are based on a valuation of approximately $20,000,000,000. Between $15,000,000,000 and $30,000,000,000 —much more than all the European war debts heaped together—will be at stake in the case. No court has ever been called upon to make a decision involving such a sum of money before. Births CJlrl* James and Mildred Montgomery, 714 ‘OriV and O’ive Taylor. 1?625 15. Pearl.
