 Important Question.

Important Question.
 Topeka. Kas., Feb. 10.-The State Su- prenie Court today decided that In the absence of State statute granting such power, boards of education in cities of the second class have no right to sep arate negro children from whites in the public schools.
 The case that brought forth the de- cision came from Coffeyville. where Bud" Cartwright, a negro, demanded that his daughter be admitted to the same school room with white children. although a separate room was provid- ed for the negroes Mandamus pro ceedlngs were brought before the Su- preme Court to compel the board to admit the Cartwright girl.
 Tcday's decision does not affect that recently rendered by the same court uphoIding the act passed by the last Legislature providing for the separa- ton of white and negro children in public schools In cities of the first ella IS.

ANOTHER BARN
Went Up in Smoke Last
Wednesday.

Mr.. Henry F. Hopson, who lives
about three and one. half miles from
the city on the Cadiz pike, lost his
barn and entire crop of tobacco
Wednesday morning by fire.
There has been more barn burning
during tobacco firing in the county
this season than has ever been
known. If some man would deserve
a plan to fire tobacco without the
risk of burning he would soon have
fortune in his hands. Many Of
the farmers now build big fire and
cover it with saw dust, which is con
sidered pretty safe, but when a
stick of tobacco drops down into tho
fire the usual result follows.

REGISTRATION
NEXT TUESDAY
Annual Day for Qualifying
Voters for November.
ONLY CHANCE TO VOTE.
Polls Will Open from g a. m.
to op. m. at ALI Precincts.

Every man who wants to vote at
the November election should not
forget to register next Tuesday. If
he fails to do so he need not go to
the polls when election day rolls
around, for he will be shut out, that
is, if he lives in any of the voting
precincts of Hopkinsville or the FIVE
towns surrounding it. The five
towns are Pembroke, Lafayette,
Crofton, Gracey and Fairview.
All yound men who will be Fl years
of age on the 9Th day of November
are entitled to register and. of course.
to vote.
Those who have been in the state
since November 4, 1905, and in the
precinct sixty days are legally en-
titled to vote at the approaching cleo
ton, provided they are properly
registered.
Persons who may be absent from
the county on registration day, prop
erly proven, will have the privilege of
registering on supplemental regis
tration day.
Registering is a matter that too
many legal voters neglect. On regis
tration day they imagine that there
will not be a candidate in the field
that they care enough about to go
to the polls and vote for, to say moth
ing about the additional trouble of
applying for registration. By cleo
ton day their feelings have under
gone a change and some of them go
to the polls on election day to vote
without having their certificate of
registration-and the right is denied
them because they neglected" to
attend to the small matter of regis
tering as required by law.
Every man who has the good of
the county at heart should be loyal
enough to the party to register with
out having others more loyal than
to run after him and almost
carry him to the registration place.
DON'T FORGET NEXT TUESDAY, If
you do, you are shut out from voting
for A Whole Year.

Capt. c. D. Bell Latest Ben
ificiary of Indian
Remedy.
CURE SEEMS COMPLETE.
Several Other Hopkinsville
Men Have Been Sim
ilarly Cured.

Capt. c. D. Bell returned a few
days ago from Slayden, Tenn, where
he went about the first of September
to have a cancerous growth removed
from the left side of his forehead.
He has been a sufferer from malig-
nant sore for three or four years
that showed about as large as a sill
yer dime. He went to Slayden and
was treated by A. V. Schmittou, a
merchant at that place, who owns
an Indian remedy that has been
handed down through his family for
four generations. Mr.. Schmittou is
not a doctor, but claims he is able to
remove any cancer not in the mouth
or nose, where he can get at it.
Capt. Bell says he applied a plas-
ter to the cancer for two days and
after severe pains he pronounced it
dead. He then waited 81 more days
for it to drop out. 1t gradually
grew loose and finally dropped out.
The greater portion of it was under
the skin and the cancer is as large
as silver dollar and it's removal
left the skull exposed. Capt. Bell
says all his pains attributed to pa
ralysis or rheumatism, have disap.
peared and he feels like new man.
He believes his cure is permanent.
Capt. Bell is not the first Hopkins
vile man to be cured by Mr..
Schmittou. Five other citizens have
been to him in the last few years
and not one of them has so far had
a return of the trouble.
This is not an advertisement of
Mr.. Schmittou, but a plain state
ment of the facts in Capt. Bells
case.
