CONSTITUTION UPHELD

The Supreme Court of th
United States on Monday dismiss
ed The case involving the validit,
of tine suffrage provision of the
new Virginia Constitution. If
will be recalled that Hon. Johns.
Wise of New York, representa- o
certain negroes, brought suit
against the State of Virginia on
the ground that many citizens of
6he state were DISTINGUISHED by
the provisions of the new Constitu-
ton, as being violative of the Fed
eral Constitution.
The decision of the Supreme
Court forever fixes the destiny of
,lliterate and vicious negroes. In
order to enjoy the rights of suf-
frage they must make themselves
worthy of participating in the
affairs of government. Fyy forty
years the negro has been PLAYING
with edged tools, not knowing the |
full import of the dignity CT
citizenship. This is a decided
victory for Southern intelligence
and patriotism, and the members of

THE DOG LAW

Owners of dogs are required t.
pay taxes on them. Under an act
of the Legislature of February -,
1908, commissioners of the revenue
shall list all dogs over three
months old. A tax of so cents is
imposed on all male dogs and
spsyed female dogs, and $1.00 on
unspayed female dogs. If the
owner of the dog fails to pay the
tax by the first day of July next
succeeding the return of said
lists, it shall be the duty of the
constable of that district or if
there be no constable, then it shall
be the duty of the sheriff or a
deputy sheriff of the district in
which the delinquent resides, to
kill the said dog, for which he
shall receive fee of so cents out
of the funds arising from the dog
tax. The owner, however, can
save his dog from being killed by
the payment to the constable or
sheriff the taxes due, and an addi-
tional fee Of % cents.
The owners of sheep killed by
dogs are compensated for their loss
from the fund arising from the dog
tax. Their claims are presented
to the Board of Supervisors and if
the dog tax fund is sufficient, an
allowance is made equal to the
value of the sheep assessed for tax
alton; otherwise the fund is APP
portioned prO-rata among the |
losers.
This law does not effect the
sections of the code requiring dogs
to be killed that worry or kill
sheep or are mad or bitten by mad
logs. Nor does this law apply to
Lexington, which has a special
log law. |,

kOckbridge Visitor Writes from
Florida

| Gazette Co,,tsbondrnre
PENSACOLA, Fla, April IS.
The idea is, think, very common
among those who have not visited
this Southland, that it is more sickly
here than i'm States further North
But my experience, from successive
visits to Dixie, leads me to just the
opposite conclusion. There does not
appear to be, in this city, fifty per
cent of the sickness that we usually
have in my home county, and from
what l learn from the surrounding
country, the same is applicable.
l had most delightful experience
this afternoon when l Joined an
excursion party down the Bay across
the bar and for quite distance out
on the Gulf. We left the wharf here
at 2 p. H., in steam tug OF sufficient
size to carry 1850 passengers, and after
passing close by quite a number of
the large war vessels made straight
for the Gulf On our return we pass
ed close enough to Fort Pickens and
Fort Barrancas to have fair view
OF each, stopping for short while at
the navy yard.
Today | attended, at the National
cemetery near Warrington and
Barrancas, ~ miles down the Bay,
the burial of Ii OF the victims of the |
accident yesterday on the Missouri,
when 81 lives were lost in an explo-
sion. military escort of two
thouand composed Of marines, blue
jackets and artillerymen from the
Fort met the remains, with the
hundreds of ATTENDANTS, at the land
ing at Warrington and followed
them to the cemetery, a mile distant.
Thousands of citizens accompanied
and hundreds were left out for
want of means of conveyance from
The city. Every available means of
;ravel both by water and land was
n use and yet but little more than
half sufficient. The whole scene was

"Sir Mortimer" a Romance by
Miss Johnston

"Sir Mortimer" a Romance by
Miss Johnston
Sir Mortimer" by Miss Mary
Johnston of Richmond, author of" To
Have and to Hold" is delightful
romance published by Harper and
Brothers, $3.50.
The book is charmingly written
and the plot is laid in Elzabethan
days when English knights battled
with Spanish mobiles for the lrast, ry
of the high seas and for the fabulous
gold of the New World. The reader is
carried through romantic period of
chivalry and knighthood, respondent
with brave and noble courtiers and
stately danes.
The story opens just before the
departure of three English vessels for
the Southern seas to capture prizes
on sea or land. One Of these is COM
manded by Sir Mortimer Ferne, the
hero of the romance, and knight of
princely honor and pride. AT frs
victory crowns their every conflict,
but finally disaster overtakes them
through the treachery of a Spaniard,
and Sir Mortimer is taken prisoner.
After farce trial and Imprisonment
the noble hero is sent forth by the
Spanish Governor, disgraced in the
eyes of his countrymen. From that
point to the end of the book ones
interest never lags. Miss Johnston
presents her heroine, the lovely
Damaris Sedley, in attractive style,
and the reader follows the thrilling
story enraptured till the climax is
reached.
Miss Johnston's story is not alone
simple fiction, but she portrays a
historic and romantic period that
the noblest types of chivalry
when knighthood was in flower.
