A most interesting case is "Stand-

Standard Oil Co. underselling him

again put up its prices could recover
damages in full in that case $4,000.

THE DEATH PENALTY.

Several states have abolished the
death penalty for murder, but the in
crease of crime compelled the re-en-
actment of the old law. In Colorado
and Iowa this has been recently done.
The only states now having no death
penalty are Maine. Rhode Island,
Michigan and Wisconsin and Maine
will probably go back to the old law
at the next session of its legislature.
The following statistics call for q.
more efficient jury system and the
abolition of the dis arit'. in challenges.
Germany with $4,000 900 population.
2f9 homicidcs. England with 3d.
100000 population. 322 homicides.
France with 3S.000.000 population
526 homicides. United states with
76.0O0,000 population, 1929 homi-
cides. Of these last. New England
furnished 254 homicides. Middle At
lantic States 1858, Central States p
843, Pacific States. 1,194, Southern
States 1914. These figures deserve
consideration.

RESUME ARMY WORK
sALvATIoNIsTs WILL RETURN
 TO MONTGOMERY.
They Will Begin Meetings in Tent Next Week and Expect to Have
 a Division Here.

The Salvation Army will resume it's work in Montgomery next week. which 1t abandoned because of unpropitious cir- cumstances three years ago.
 The work will be enthusias stic and energetic from the start. 1t will begin with a series of tent meetings. The Army has secured the vacant lot on Adams Street in the rear of the Car negie Library as a location for its tent.
 The services will be in charge of four prominent officers. two of whom will come from Atlanta and two from Chat tanooga. Their presence is expected to throw life and enthusiasm into the work of the Army in Montgomery.
 Ensign Widgerley of Atlanta has been in the city the past two or three days engaged in making arrangements for the reopening of the Army's work here. This has been successfully accomplished. The first tent meeting 1t is expected will be held Friday of next week.
 Circumstances have heretofore been against the work of the Army in Mont gomery. It has never been able to att tain in Montgomery the strength it has in Atlanta, Birmingham and other South ern cities. The work to begin next week is expected to be lasting and permanent.

 After providing for the construction of the Panama canal by the United States the bill declares that all the rights and portions of the republic 2f every description shall vest in the United States of America, without re- serve and shall be subject to their sovereign Jurisdiction.
 Senator Morgan also introduced a concurrent resolution directing the president to enter into negotiations with the governments of Nicaragua and Costa Rico for the construction of a canal via the Nicaragua route.
