NO HOODOO DAY FOR HIM.

G. G. Mason Didn't Wish to Be Tried
Next Friday, the 13th.

When the case of G. G. Mason, a negro, was called yesterday morning in Justice Miller's court Mason's attorney asked Justice Miller to continue the case one week.

"No you don't," declared Mason, shaking his head. "A week from today is Friday and it's the 13th, too. Can't you make it some day where I could have an even chance?"

Justice Miller set the case for December 17.
