CONFEDERATE SOLDIERS.
Do Not Have to Pay License Fees to
Garry on Business.

Garry on BUSINESS.
On account of the many inquiries
which the comptroller general has re-
ceived as to the recent law exempting
Confederate soldiers from license taxed
be has asked the attorney general for
on opinion. Assistant Attorney Gener-
al W. n. Townsend Tuesday sent the
following opinion to Mr.. Jones:
Answering your inquiry to the at
torney general, beg to say that In
my opinion, the act to exempt Confed-
crate soldiers and sailors from paying
license fees "a statutes AID gives a
personal privilege which cannot be
transferred to others. The effect OF
this personal exemption is the same as
that of a person paying the license tax
in question. II a pe:son paying the
license tax could employ others to
carry on the business under him, then
the soldier or sailor exempted could
do so likewise. This depends in each
case upon the terms Of the statue or
ordnance imposing Gt1e llcense GdA.
The act IS as follows:
"An act to exempt soldiers and
sailors from paying license.
Section /. That all soldiers and
sailors Of the Confederate States, who
enlisted from this State and who were
honorably discharged from such SER
vice, shall hereafter be exempt from
the charge of any license for the car
ryirg on Of and business or profession
within this State, or any city, town or
village therein: Provided, That such
soldiers and sailors shall file with the
clerk of the court Of the county in
which he resides the proper evidence
of his service in the Confederate war:
Provided, further, That no partner
ship shall exist in any such business or
profession, with any person not bona
fde soldier or sailor Of the said Con-
federate States.

TIE CARNIVAL OF CRIME.
a Boy Murdered in Fisherman 3
Camp Near Columbia.

The State says another murder as
mysterious as the Maude allen case,
as cold. .blooded and diabolical, oc-
Cured Thursday morning near Co.
lumbia. In the first case the act
seemed to indicate the work Of one
infuristed with drink and j alousy; in
the latest the heinouS purpose OF an
inhuman, blood thirsty fend.
Clarence ShealY, a Is year-old boy,
while lyirg asleep upon the banks Of
the Congaree at a fSherman's camp
TWO miles south OF Columbia, was ap-
preached from behind and was most
foully hacked to death with a hoe,
one pitiless stroke marriDg the boys
face almost beyond recognition and
another cleaving the head from the
crown deep into the brain.
Clarence Shealy's parents live at ll50
Olympia avenue, and off and on since
Sprirg the boy has been with Usher
man, Frank Smith, who has a fishing
camp a short distance below Shealy's
home. Smith and man by the n ame
OF Cushman, who lived in the camp,
stated Thursday that they got up at
80 a. N. to 60 down the river to
make the circuit Of their baskets, and
left the boy to cook breakfast; that
they had been gone about an hour and
quarter and on their return found
the child breathing his last. Neither
saw anyone about on leaving the place
or on their approach. One OF the
men came at once to the home OF the
boy and notified his parents and the
county officials, leaving the other with
the body.
TIE only ether witness was negro
sent by MI. John Stuart, overseer on
Mr.. Tom Taylor's place, a mile and
half from the scene, to get some hsh.
This negro is reported to have ridden
within eye range of the camp, and
sesir E the form Of a person writhlrg
about the ground, turned his horses
head and ran his horse back to Mr..
Stuart's home and reported his obser-
vation. This man was not arrested
Thursday as a witness but the fisher
men were arrested ard placed in the
county jail, on the ground merely that
they were material witnesses OF the
crime.
The body Of the boy was removed
Thursday afternoon to his fathers
home on Olympia avenue and the cor
oner empanneled jury and went out
and viewed the body. The Inquest
will be held later, when al the evi
dence in the case can be got together.
Sheriff Coleman announced at a late
hour Thursday night that so far no
clues had been discovered as to the
identity Of the murderer. The blood
ed hoe with which the deed was COM
mitted was found near the body and
the fishermen allegs that their shot
gun and all the loaded shells are miss
ing. The gun and ammunition were
in the camp when they went out On
the river they say.

RIVAL CAR LINES.

The electric car running be- tween Hoxie and Walnut Ridge is doing a splendid business, having carried 16,00O passengers within five weeks. The mule car, which everyone thought would go out of business when the electric came, is still doing business, carrying passengers from one town to the other at apenny trip. This line averages 40 passengers daily. It also has the contract for carrying mail from these points, which pays actual running expenses.

IRON MOUNTAIN WRECK.

Iron Mountain passenger train No. 2 was wrecked at Higginson, Ark, early Saturday morning. From the advices from the scene of the wreck no serious damage was done to the passenger train. The freight into which it crashed at Austin station was damaged to some extent, and delayed southbound traffic for some time. There is no reason given for the wreck, and it is supposed to have occurred from a mere accident. The delay was slight, and traffic to St. Louis on Monday reached high water mark.

from a pound and a half to five pounds, struggling for maturity in artificial mothers. These, like Richard H., are wee little things sent into this breathing world scarce half made up," and the finishing touches are giv- en by the incubators. They are too weak to live in cur norma temperature, so they are kept in temperature varying according to their condition and strength varying from 85 to 99 degrees.
 The air they receive is filtered through a box containing a jar of sulphuric acid and. medicated cotton, and warmed over hot wa ter pipes. They are fed with a medicine dropper and later with a bottle until they are strong enough to live in our own atmos- phere, when they are "given a diploma" and graduated to the pretty little model hospital in the same building, where they stretch out on their tiny white iron beds and kick and coo just like other babies who never saw an incubator. Four doctors and twelve nurses watch over their destinies constantly, and the poorest child gets just as much attention as the child of the mil lionaire. It is a great lesson in humanity. Not a cent is charged for saving the lives of the little ones.
 When one considers that this institution on the Iike at the worlds fair is the largest of it's kind in the world he is impressed with the grand possibilities before the wealthy and philanthropic. through the establishment of similar ones in every large city in the universe. Would it not be equally as meritorious as the en- flowing of libraries and colleges? Of what use are the latter to the baby which might have been saved and was not because of the lack of a baby incubator? How many brilliant statesman, orators, poets, diplomats and artists might not these incubators give to the world?. The lines of Gray seem to aptly tell the story when they say:
 Full many gem of purest ray serene,
 The dark, unfathomed caves of ocean bear;
 Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,
 And waste its fragrance on the desert air.

HEART DISEASE AND WORRY.
Mental. Endansers Life in Case of Cardiac Trouble.

The influence of mental emotion oN the heartbeat needs no special proof in our everyday experiences. When the organ is healthy the palpitation ia the ordinary response to an extra stimulus and is necessarily transient in duration. In confirmed cardiac dis- ease in which the valves are damaged or the heart walls dilated and weak. ened. there is often great danger to life by overexertion, either physical or mental. It is the degree and con- tinuousness of excitement which thus work so disastrously.
 The young school teacher of Green point who fell dead at the end of his first days duty is case in point, says the New York Herald. He was evil dently overwrought with anxiety, and his crippled heart was unable to bear the constant strain. Unlike mere muscular exertion, the mental excit- ability was beyond control. especially when the new environment was the persistent disturbing element. This happens sometimes in the pulpit, on the lecture platform. and even before the footlights. Numerous examples have been noted from time to time.
 The preventives are in the line of avoiding all overexcitement and of needing all ominous warnings. This is most difficult obviously with mental emotions, as they are not always un- der the control of the will The man with weak heart who is running for a train Is compelled to stop in time for want of breath and thus remove the exciting cause of his palpitation. but continual and profound mental psr- turbation is. alas, too often beyond his ken. Alas! there was no one neaY the poor teacher to tell him
