Township Officers in Greenwood
County Before Court

Three Greenwood county township
trustees are cited to appear before the
supreme court on November to an
swer charges of contempt Of an order
of the defunct court of appeals. 1t is
an odd case.
v L. Jamison, L. NJ Livingston and
E. L. Strimple are the offenders who
ignored the mandate of the court They
were ordered by the court of appeals
to levy a tax to pay a judgment held
against Pleasant Grove township The
Judgment was fCz $500 and was held by
Alfred L. Ware. The judgment was
awarded by the Greenwood s..;a1 s.
court. In order to collect IT Ware I'd
secured a peremptory mandamus from
the court of appeals on the township
trustees to levy tax The trustees
have failed to levy tax.
f. s Jackson, a. Eureka attorney
came before the supreme court today
with a motion to attach the persons of
the obdurate trustees The motion was
allowed and the trustees have been
cited to show cause why they are not
in contempt. The legislature last win
ter gave the supreme court power to
enforce the acts of the defuact court of
appeals. This is the first case where use
of that power has been invoked

Two Extraordinary Incidents That stand
Out In History.

Two Extraordinary Incidents That stand
Out In History.
Two of the most extraordinary in
cidents recounted in history belong to
the lives of men whose names stand
out prominently as having lod armies
in war. 1t cannot, however, be said
that one OF these characters was OF
the true military type. Xerxes l. OF
Persia was of q somewhat limited dis
position He could not thrash the
sturdy Greeks, but he thrashed the
sea- This happened during his inva-
sion of Greece, when he led an army
numbering with followers = more
than 5,25O.Oo0 people. By the orders
Of this proud and insolent monarch
bridge had been built across the Oar
danelles for the convenience OF his
host, and as this structure was de-
stroyed by storm he caused chains
to be thrown into the sea and the
waves to be whipped with them as a
punishment for having thwarted his
purposes And yet historians tell us
that Xerxes was highly accomplished!
The incident has a curious parallel in
|
lar action being numbered among
those of that brilliant Bohemian, Cen
eral Wallenstein. This man entered
the service of Ferdinand, the German
emperor, who was fighting against the
Protestants. At the head Of gigantic
armies wallenstein performed march
es so rapidly that historians are
| amazed: and in 1927 had driven the
Protestant king of Denmark. with his
invading forces. out Of Germany, shut
ting that monarch up In his islands.
But the Bohemian had no ships to
cross the Belt, and he was 30 enraged
