One said, also in an undertone, that he had had no hope that the ruling reversed, and that the appeal in his behalf had been filed by his merely as a formality All of them appeared to be ex ggard, as though d from the loss The eight who did not counsel of sleep. comment on the decision of the court raised their heey sided eyes an instant to hear the ar | nouncement, and then the read as they glumly awaited ‘Traffic Sign Painting Goes On wa ey Sgt.
