tax can be enforced by levy upon prop.
ety which is otherwise exempt from
t%azarion. The payment Of the poll tax
Is made by the constitution a condition
or qualification of the suffrage If the
poll tax a be collected by compulsory
process out of property exempt from
taxation, the effect will be to cause a
great number of negroes to register and
vote who would otherwise prefer TO lose
their vote rather than to pay the poll
tasSS The question is one of profound
practical importance to the state. The
case will be argued by Hon. Frank

collection of the poll tax.--New Orleans

Even assuming that every one can read
therevised version if he wishes, the problem
of an Ineligible translation is far from
being solved. 1t contains such utterly OBJ
solctc words as armament Genesis i, Cd,
"daysman' (Job TX 33), "bruit" Nahum
iii, l9), divers (Matthew iv, 2i), "mete"
(Matthew vii. p, "halt" (Matthew xviii,
81, "hushandman" (AIatthew xxi, 38).
These words of course, like all others, are
perfectly Ineligible when we have been
specially taught their meaning But a
reader who had received q fair English
education without lessons in the Bible
would not have the slightest in1ling Of
what they signify. But the result is likely
to be more mischievous when we pass from
words which suggest no meaning at all to
those which suggest an erroneous one.
Among these are desire" OI Chronicles
xxi, 2O), prevent Psalms xxi 3, and
cxix, l4S), "fulfn" (Matthcw v, fD "doc-
tor (Luke II, 46), mansions" John xiv,
p, "consent" (Acts viii, ID, curious
(Acts xix, 100, quick" (Acts X, 42).
quicken" CRomans viii, II. and I Co
rinthians XIV, 36), "mortifyi (Romans viii,

DEATH BY DROWNING.
Two Minutes Under Water Sufficient to
Cause Fatal Unconsciousness.

Cause Fatal Unconsciousness.
Drowning is q quicker death than most
people suppose. Inscnsibility is said to be-
gin ia about orc minute, and fatal uncon-
seriousness generally suporvenes in the
neighborhood of two. Even practiced
divers cannot remain under water more
than minute and half, ard it is almost
fatal to remain beneath the surface longer
than that.
At Navarino, whore there are many ex-
pert divers who plunge into the sea after
spOnges not ono was found who could re-
main undcr water for two minutes. In the
Red sea the Arab divers generally remain
down ono and a quarter minutes, while at
Ceylon the pearl fishers can seldom stay
below fer even one minute. There is a
case on record at Falmouth, England,
where a diver had descended so feet and
on giving the signal was drawn up slowly,
SO il was two minutes before he reached
the surfgce. Blood ran from his ears and
nose, and hc lgas insensible. He died with
out speaking.
Insensibinty, however, does not always
involve deatl, for in many cases a poSson
may be resUs, ltalel by the use of energetic
measures. Tho bringing to of people who
have been under water for five consecutive
minutes, however, is considered doubtful by
physicians. There have been extraordinary
cases related, nevertheless where persons
have been brought back to life after hay-
ing bccn submerged for 8 or 20 minutes,
but it is probable that they have come to
the surface again and again during that
time. New York journal.
