A decision in the Supreme Court tester-, HsF reSpens a celebrated case in local court circles and brings back memgties Of some stirring incidents ot three years, as2; The aau style 1s 0f the 'ne Louis Sasc

 In January, 1899, Major Woolfolk and the Hanover Copstruction Company mad completed the Montgomery INseaioosa and Memphis Railroad rom I9seaIoosi ,s9 ;, to a point near the foot of Clay street Tn West Montgomery. Right here operations stopped for a while, and for about week there occurred probably the most remark able scenes ever enacted in railroad con struction In the State of Alabama oust above the Clay Street crossing was the Southern end of the big railroad cut from which emerged the tracks or the Mobile and Montgomery division or the Louisville and Nashville Railroad the Selma branch of the Western .issni, kail1oa9 nf and the Alabama Midland diNlsloh or the Plant System. r.-
 The l.. and N. and Western were for some reason very hostile to the new roau rost and bitterly opposed to the Hanover or connection with their tracks me Plant System alone was friendly ana this was the sole bit of light that the newcomer found in the situation. .
 The big light that was made there. how the Louisville and Nashville had cars loaded with iaborers and materials stationed a few miles out of the clty' how these cars were brought in one night, deraied to prevent their being moved while spur tracks were being built. All of this Is railroad history.
 One of the new tracks was laid through the property of J. N. Hall-through his front yard it was claimed-and some months afterward a' suit for damages was instituted against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company. The suit was filed in the Montgomery Circuit Court, but on account of dissatisfaction with some of the rulings of Judge Rich ardson. It was transferred to the City Court and the trial took place last July.

Smallpox has developed in the county iail. TWO eases were reported yester4 day and the patients. who are. negroes, were removed to the county pest house.
 How the disease developed ahiohg the negroes is a mystery. The negroes who have the disease have been cohfihed in the Jail five months. They are John Wood. charged, with burglary and lar- cenr. and Joe Scott charged with. burg larizing a railroad ear. Until the disease developed these negroes were allowed to other prisoners in the corridors. The disease. had broken out when it was dis covered,

A COMMON TROUBLE.
Thousands Suffer From It without
 Knowing Its Real Character.

No trouble is more common or more misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia. People having it think that their nerves are tn blame, are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines and spring remedies; the real seat of the mischief is lost sight of; the stomach is the organ to be looked after
 Nervous dyspeptcs often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia shows itself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every other o, gan: in some cases the heart palpitates and Ia irregu- far; in others. the bowels are troubled, with loss of flesh and appetite, with the accumulation of gas, sour risings and heartburn
 Mir. A. w. Sharper of No. 6l Prospect St, Indianapolis. Ind, writes as follows: "A motive of pure gratitude prompts me to write these few lines regarding the new and valuable medicine, Stuarts Dys- pepsia Tablets. I have been a sufferer from nervous dyspepsia for the last four years; have used various patent medi- cines and other remedies without any fa- vorable result. They sometimes give tenn porary relief until the effects of the medi. cine wore of. I attributed this to my sedentary habits. being a bookkeeper, WitH Httle physical exercise, but l am glad to state that the tablets have over- come all these obstacles. for have gaiiia ed in flesh, sleep better and am better in every way. The above is written not for notoriety. but Is based on actual facts"

About smallpox.

The State Board Of Health has
issued a circular letter calling atten-
ton TO the prevalence OF smallpox, in
which ii says
"There is hardly a state in the
Union in which there are not cases.
The disease, which was OF a mild
type last year, is growing malignant.
This fact is undoubtedly largely due
TO the neglect of vaccination. For
many decades the country has been
comparatively free from epidemics Of
this pestilence, hence parents have
neglected to have their children
vaccinated; this has resulted in a very
large number of persons arriving at
adult life without having given a
thought to the necessity OF being
protected from this loathsome disease.
The terrible results that may follow
the general neglect OF vaccination
was shown in Germany when a
population which had allowed vacci-
nation to be almost entirely neglected,
had an annual mortality from small
pox of $4,000 to 10000 eliminating
in 1871 in an epidemic in which there
were $4,000 deaths. This aroused
the government to the importance of
taking means to prevent such whole
sale destruction of human life and in
1874 law was passed to make vacci-
nation compulsory in the first year of
life and re-vacciDation in the 10th
year. With this enforcement of this
act smallpox ceased to be a menace
and the annual mortality since then,
instead of $4,000 or 10000, has been
on an average of Ito.

VERMONT PLANTS.
Interesting Statistics from Sta e
Experiment Station.

Some interesting statistics of YER
mont plants are sent us from the
Vermont experiment station. These
figures are taken in part from the
new Flora of the state, published by
the Vermont Botanical club.
According to this publication there
are now 1903 species of ferns and
Towering plants knewn to occur
uncGltivated in Vermont. OF these.
70 species are trees, including IL
species of oak, seven kinds of maple,
six poplars, four pines, and four
hirches. They are mostly useful; but
there are so species of weeds, some Of
which are pernicious and promising
trouble.
Out of the present census Of 1868
species, 2T0 have moved into the state
since the country was settled. Many
of them have come mixed with
agricultural seeds, or have been
introduced directly or indirectly by
artificial means. A large proportion
OF these newcomers are like our
American population, importations
from Europe; and only a minority of
60 or less have come to Vermont from
other states or from Canada.
1t is interesting to notice how the
number of known species has increased
in recent years. When the first list
OF Vermont plants was published by
Oakes in 1912, there were 929 species
known. Torrey's list OF 1853 gave
1884, and Perkins list of 1855 gave
|, 1850. In each case some plants were
included by mistake, so the increase
since 1888 is more than the difference
between l.563 and 1850. Most of
the additions are of species which
have doubtless been here all the while
but have only recently been dis
covered. A few, however, represent
species which have come in during
comparatively recent times.

There are new developments in the
case of Bridget Mullin v. DIR. William
u. Il. Flanders OF Burlington for
malpractice in an operation for club
feet. The supreme court handed
down decision affirming the verdict
OF the lower court, which was in
favor of the plaintiff. Now petition
has been granted by Judge TAFT
which will necessitate tine taking OF
testimony as result Of an affidavit
made by the defendant. In this it is
set forth that new trial is asked on
the ground that the defense has lately
come into the possession OF new
evidence. 1t is alleged that one Of
the jurors in the lower court talked of
the case outside and when asked how
he believed the case would come out,
remarked that in his opinion the
plaintiff would get verdict. Accord
ing TO this action on the part of the
defendant, stay OF execution is
granted until the May term OF the
supreme court.
Charles Mclaughlin of North Con-
cord, Essex county,N as arrested Mon
day of last week for the abduction of
the l5-year-old daughter of James
Wood OF Victory and was bound over
to the next session of the Essex county
grand jury. His bail was fixed at
81 500, which he was unable to fur
nish. His housekeeper, Mrs. Hattie
Crossman, was held as an accomplish,
her bail being set at 5000. McLaugh-
lin is farmer, and is 46 years OF age.
The testimony tended to show that
Mclaughlin, who is a divorced man,
had been paying attention to the girl,
and that sunday he came to take the
girl for ride. Her father suspected
that all was not right and went to the
home of Mclaughlin and asked for
her. lie was told che was not there.
Wood procured the assistance of
Sheriff o. ID. Cobleigh, armed with a
search warrant. They broke into
McLaughlin's and found the girl
locked in Saratoga trunk. She
was released in nearly suffocated
condition.
