The Inner court has n level floor 225 feet long and 125 feet wide, and the celling Is from dO lo 100 feet high, ac? cording to situation. The building wns evidently used by prehistoric man, but for what purpose nnd bow long since no one knows.

When Cromwell ruled England he is? sued an edict against nil festivities at Christmas. The festival wns altogeth? er abolished, and the displaying of hol? ly and mistletoe and other emblems of the happy time was held to bo sedi? tious. In 1044 the long parliament commanded thnt Christmas day should he observed as a strict fast, when all people should think over nnd deplore the great siu of which they nnd their forefathers had been guilty In making merry nt that season. This net so pro? voked the people that on the following nnlnl day the law wns violently re? sisted In many places.

S. SUPREME COURT Order of North Carolina Corporation Commission is in Conflct With Interstate Commerce Law. WASHINGTON. D. C, May 28.? The Supreme Court of the United Slot's today decided Hie case of the North Carolina rnilrond commissioner vs. the Southern Railway Company in favor of the railroad company. The case Involved the right of a Statt? to compel a railroad company to place its cars on tracks designat? ed by Ihe Slate authorlles for the benefit of Individual shippers. It was instituted by the corporation commission against the rnilrond com? pany because of the refusal of the latter to obey an order directing that coal cars he placed on a certain switch al Greensboro, N. C. The company expressed its willing? ness to place the cats on other switches, but pleaded inability to comply with the demand as to the particular switch. The railroad com? pany attacked Hie law as unconsti? tutional on the grounds that it in? volved an interference with inter? state commerce, and Ihe Circuit Court sustained this position. That decision was affirmed by to? day's opinion, which was delivered by Justice White. In his opinion. Justice White said that State railroad commissioners have authority to reasonably regulate the delivery of freight within the State, but not to the extent of im? posing a burden on commerce be? tween the States, as wrs the ease In this instance.
