NO COURT NEXT WEEK.

About three weeks ago Judge
bearing went to Potosi to hold an
adjourned term of the Washington
county circuit court. While there
he was taken seriously ill and has
been confined to his bed ever since.
This "Wednesday morning Mr..
Edgar received a telephone mes
sage from Judge Bearings brother
at Potosi stating that the Judges
condition was such that it will be
utterly impossible for him to hold
court here next week, and that the
Judge directed that the business OF
the term should be deferred until
an adjourned term to be held some
time during the summer, or let the
entire docket 60 over until the next
regular term in October. All that
will be done next week will be the
election of a special Judge to pre-
side in order that some land sales
may be perfected. 1t will also then
be determined whether an adjourn
ed term will be held this summer, or
whether everything will be defer
red until the regular fall term. Be-
yond this no circuit court business
will be transacted next week.

Beauty and Strength

Are desirable. You are strong
and vigorous, when your blood is
pure. Many-nay most-women
fail to properly digest their food,
and so become pale, sallow, thin
and weak, while the brightness,
freshness and beauty of the skin
and complexion depart. Remedy
this unpleasant evil, by eating
nourishing food and taking a
small dose of Herbine after each
meal, to digest what you have
eaten. SOC at Arcadia Valley Drug

Nose was found guilty and sentenced

The woman was released there being
no proof aguinst her. This is a case
OF robbery Of higher and more az.

BOYS
IN TROUBLE


Carl Ciut and John Valindas two
boys, aged 16 and II years, respee-
lively, were arrested yesterday on
warrants charging them with assault
and battery on the person of Willie
Furmeister. a boy 1S years Of age.
The alleged offense committed by
Clut and Valinda was the tying OF
the Furmeister boy with straps, and
then leaving him bound near the In
terurban bridge
Clut and Valinda, claim, however,
that they, with several other boys,
were playing along the PuVallup
river, and in the course of the after
noon they tied the Furmeister boy
with a book-strap When the boys
were ready TO go home the offended
lad refused to allow his companions
to take the strap off, and stubborn ly
remained behind, where he was
found several hours later by a
searching party.
1t is said that the strap used was
only a light book-strap The boy 5
hands were not tied and Clut de-
clares that Furmeister might have
released himself had he wished 10
do SO.

LIBERAL ALLOWANCES
FOR COMMON SCHOOLS

JACKSON Miss, Aug. 1-Propor-
tionate to revenue and the assessed
valuation of property in the state.
Mississippi annually pays out more
money for education than any other
state in the union except Massacnu-
sets The total state taxes for last
year were in round figures $4,000
600, and the educational disburse-
ments $1,700,000. The percentage
will be increased next year.
The negro is not benefiting to any
great extent through this large al
lowance for education While the
negro race forms practically three
fifths of the total population, they
do not take advantage of their edu-
cational opportunities to the same ex-
tent as the whites The school term
for this race is often shorter than
in the white districts, although the
per capita allowance is the same, ana
the salaries of negro teachers are
much smaller

riders at the present time being the
Ghetts girls from Cascade county.
Both of them have been raised on u

COW punchers, and it is a sight well
worth seeing to watch them change
horses on the two mile stretch. Rid

home stretch with the speed of an
express train, they are out of one
saddle and into another in the
twinkling of an eye.
There is perhaps another induce

their best efforts, in the old saying
that history repeats itself, and Paris
