Teen hundred dollars, being his

"IARGE SUMS OF MONEY MISAP-
PROPRIATED,"

EDrreRs JoURNAL-Under the above
heading in the Marietta Courier n. A
Morris quotes the law relative to the
disposition of the money arising from
the hire Of misdemeanor convicts
which law was passed in 1891. This
law makes it the duty Of the Ordinary
when the county does not work its con
victs, to hire them out and after pay
ing all the cost OF conviction including
witness fees to pay the balance of the
money arising from the hire over to the
County Treasurer. went into the Or
dinsrY's office in 1901 about ten years
after the passage Of the above law, and
at that time not one cent had gone into
the county treasury from that source
In the fall OF 1901 after the present So
lieitOr General came into office and be-
fore he had tried any cases in Cobb
county | heard that he was paying the
money arising from the hire Of misde-
meanor convicts over to the county
Treasurer after deducting the cost in
each case. In conversation with him
wa discussed the above law and he then
told me that he had been directing the
money arising from the hire OF convicts
paid to the county Treasurer after de-
Quoting the cost in each case
then consulted Col. J, Il, Foster
and employed him To collect as much
OF this money az he could trace into
the hands of the former Solicitor Gen
eral.

Stage Route Will Change.

Beginning with July I the stage
line between Carson and Bridge
port will not go via Wellington.
1t will traverse its former route,
passing through Antelope Valley
and following along the course of
the w alker River to the Bridge
port meadows. This change will
necessarily effect mail matters at
Wellington and Smith Valley, as
all mail will have to 60 by the way
of Wabuska, arriving at these
points a day or two later than
formerly.
Whether these conditions will
be permanent or not is not known.
Already Chas. Hickey has written
to the United States Postoffice at
Washington asking for the estab-
lishment of a mail line between
Topaz and Minden. 1t is highly
probable that such a line will be
established and in this event
line will undoubtedly be run from
Wellington to Topaz. = Carson

The Th1ce-a-Week World was brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the
test of all things, and has set its seal of APP
proval on the Thrice-a-Week World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritory of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1908, will make
its news service, if possible, more extern
sive than ever. All events of importance,
no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar a year
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great
dailies can furnish at five or six times the
price.
The Thrice-a-We World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias is
never allowed to affect its news columns
and Democrat and Republican alike car
obtain in its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
| Week World furnishes the best serial fiction
elaborate market reports and other features
| of interest.
The Thriee-a-Week Worlds regular sub

seven among the sayages of French
Africa, who eat human flesh, there are
differences" said Paul Pucci, a young
Italian traveller. ''Some while ago,
when exploring in that country, learn
ed a good bit about the ways of the
various tribes. In a majority of them
capnibalism is INDUCED only when the
bdhies are those of prisoners taken in
battle. 1t is all right to eat persons
who belong to hostile clans, but it
would be a gross violation of tradition
and the custom of the land to feast
upon the friends or even upon mem
bers of the same tribe. This delicacy
OF sentiment, however, is not universal,
and in one tribe in particular, where
noted the absence of any old persons,
learned that it was the proper thing
to add the ageG inhabitants to the To-
cal food supply. This confined the pop
ulation TO the young and hardy, fol-

ScOtchman whom he knew in his boy

had been passed on to him, and he only
shaved his gray beard at long inter

is seeing him biting off the tails of a

yard. lie was a philosopher in his own
way, and with the free run of the serv-

life easily.
"He s1ver complained. Once when
