SUPREME COURT DECIDES LOST GAS COMPANY SUIT State's Highest Court Says that Richmond Must Pay 45 Cents Per 1,000 Feet for Gas Case Pending More . Than a Year. Tne city ot Richmond loses out in its suit against the Richmond Natural Gas company, which has been pending in the supreme court for more than a year. That tribunal handad down a decision yesterday, which is in favor of the company. The litigation was the outgrowth of the action of the defendant in increasing the price of gas to 45 cents per 1,000 cubic feet. This was an advance of 22V2 per 1,000. The city at once began action against the company, and the attorneys of the latter entered a demurrer thereto, which was sustained by Judge Macy of Winchester. In this demurrer it was contended that the city had no right to regulate the price of gas in a case where the company was selling the same on an existing contract. The rase then went to the supreme court. and the decision from that body sus tains the finding of Judge Macy. In the face of this decision it is now highly probable that the city will drop its fight against the Natural Gas company. STRAIT JACKET IS B? F Phillips Theater Packed to the Doors to See Unique Feat Performed. OVER 7 MINUTES REQUIRED PERFORMER GIVEN HEARTY APPLAUSE, THE CROWD REALIZING THAT TRICK WAS A MERITORIOUS ONE. Before a crowd that jammed the Phillips theatre from pit to dome, aisles and orchestra pit, Don Ford the handcuff and shackle artist showing at that theatre 'this week, remove an insane straight jacket, which was thoroughly bound about him, within the short time of seven and one half minutes. The cheers that greeted him at the close of his great performance whpn he lav comoletely exhausted up on the stage, threatened for a time to raise the roof. As tlie result of Ford's success he is just one hundred dollars richer than he was before he came to this city as L. M. Hays proprietor of the South Seventh street theatre who placed the jacket upon Ford wagered that amount, that he could not remove the affair within one half hour. The physical strain which Ford underwent in removing the jacket was intense and he afterward stated that had he been required to remain within it three more minutes he would have been so exhausted that it would have been imposible to leave it. . The jacket Is so constructed that the inmate cannot use his open hands as the sleeves are sack shape. The jacket is laced up the back with ropes while the arms are crossed and tied in the back to a leather belt whose buckle is also placed in the rear. Ford did not break a rope but by clever maneuvers forced the jacket up to such a place upon his body that j u j j lAJ flULli a. jiatu upvu wj ryj j , ue was aDie to bring his head through nis arms mereuy camiug attcs w the ropes with his arms. The first part of the struggle was the fiercest and many of the spectators were inclined to think that Ford would have to give up.

BROODED OVER HIS BROTHER'S SAD END

Aged Broker Found Dead in Bed with Bullet Imbedded in His Brain. HE OWED MUCH MONEY MORTGAGES WHICH HE HAD GIVEN RECENTLY WERE FORECLOSED WAS AN ACTIVE MAN IN CHURCH CIRCLES Publishers' Pressl Phlladelp- . --cu. i. Edward P. HiDDle. 70. a brother of the late Frank Hippie, who ended his life last sum mer after wrecking the Real Estate Trust company of this city, of which he was president, committed suicide with a revolver at his home here. Hip pie's family was at breakfast when he committed the deed. His wife heard an unusual noise and, sending her sons up stairs to Investigate, they found the father in his bedroom with a bullet wound in his head. He was hurried to a hospital, but died on the way. Hippie was engaged in the real estate business. The cause for the suicide is believed to be brooding over the tragic ending of his brother's life. At the time of the suicide of his brother, Frank, and the subsequent failure, Edward : fpple owed his brother a large sum of money on mortgages. These mortgages were foreclosed recently and the proceeds from their sale were turned over to the Real Estate Trust company, under the reorganization plans. One of Hippie's sons said his father worried a great deal over Frank Hippie's part in the trustkcompany's failure, but he did not think he was in any way involved in that crash. Like his brother, Edward Hippie was very active in church work, and was well known in church circles. He was superintendent of the Sunday school of Oxford Presbyterian church, and treasurer of the church. He was also president of the Quaker City Banking company. His wife, two sons and a daughter survive him. A WORD ABOUT ECONOMY CITIZEN GIVES HIS VIEWS Wonders Why the Grand Jury is not Notified of the Gambling by DetectiVe of League, if There is so Much of it Going on. The Palladium is in receipt of a communication signed "Citizen" in which the writer discusses a recent interview in a local paper concerning the law and order league of Economy. He declares that there are a great many good people, both men and women, in Economy who are not members of the aforesaid league, and who do not give it their endorsement. The statement that there is a necessity for such an organization he says is untrue, as there has been no drunkenness at Economy for several years. The writer thinks it rather strange if there is so much gambling there that the league's detective does not discover It, and bring the matter before the grand jury. He states that Economy, as a matter of fact is afflicted with a bunch of seekers after notoriety who are determined to rule on ruin, and who instead of cultivating a feeling of brotherly kindness spend their time denouncing their neighbors. First Meeting Monday. The county commissioners will on Monday hold their first meeting for the February term. Among the matters that will be brought before them is a favorable report of the viewers for the road in South Richmond, along the cornoration and township line. Da vid Harlan, of Franklin township, Asa Pitts, New Garden township and Ca leb Jackson, of Center township are the viewers. There is a probability that a remonstrance against th ac ceptance of the report will be filed in which case three new viewers will be appointea. One dav recently Mr. J. W. Barnard showed us his blacklist of eleven men who reside in Wallowa counts'.
