As regards the jurisdiction Of the Inqui-
sition. We observe that there was scarcely
any limit in respect OF age. Children were
considered capable Of committing heresy as
soon as they were doh cdpdces Ccapable
Of guile| as. for example. at 4 or 7 years.
but they were not held responsible until
they reached the age Of discretion. This
was fixed by To~rquemada at II for girls
and IL for boys; below those ages they
were not to Dc made to abjure in public.
The limit was frequently i~nfringed, how
ever. In 1901 a girl between . and 10
years old and another aged 10 were sem
fenced to be burned in an auto he k. The
former had confessed. it seems, to fasting
once or twice. and the latter had been told
by her father not to eat pork. In 1870. at
~Valladolid, a boy aged 8. ACCUSED Of Juda-
ism. was regularly tried. with all the COM
plicated formalities OF procedure OCCUPY
ing a year. and was made to give evidence
against his father and brother. OF course
there was no maximum limit Of age. At
NallAdolid in 1893 Maria Diaz, a hundred
years old. was thrown into the secret prison
for Judaism and her trial ven forward.
Over the laity the jurisdiction of the
Inq uisition was complete. In another chan
ter DR.. Lea shows that no one was so high
placed as to be exempt from IL. Heresy was
a universe. ~leveIler. theoretically, the King
himself was subject to the Inquisition.
for the institution wa based on the nrin-
Ciple OF the supremacy Of the spiritual over
the temporal power. The piety of the
Spanish monarchs gave no occasion for
putting that supremacy to the test, for our
author rejects as fables the stories con-
corning Juana Ia LOca and Don Carlos. Il
is certain, however. that no station shielded
him who was suspect in the faith from
prosecution or from punishment il he were
found guilty. In Valencia, mobiles who
sought to pre- I ot their Morisco vassals from
the raids Of the Inquisition were tried az
fsutors Of heresy, the most conspicuous
of these being Don Slncho de Cordova
Admiral Of Aragon. a man allied TO the
noblest blood Of spain. At the age Of "a
he was compelled to ablure for ign sus-
piciOn OF heresy and confined in a con-
vent. where he died. Our author con.iders
in detail the still more rem lrxable clse NJ

The features of yesterdays sessions of tive committee called to hear the petition of contest filed by Judge J, P Stiles in the recent primary for sheriff was the non-appearance of E. L. Higdon and others to answer the charges, and the throwing out of nine votes shown to be illegally cast for D. L. Higdon, according to the testimony brought before the com mittee.
 A committee appointed to call on Colonel Higdon and attorneys at the opening of the session yesterday morning to invite their attendance and request list of Illegal votes that had been charged by Colonel Higdon reported as follows
 Your committee, appointed to wait on Colonel Higdon and his attorneys and de- mand the names of the 140 alleged illegal voters for Judge Stiles and ascertain whether the contestee would now furnish the names of any voters whose vote hs desired to challenge, wainted on MT. A. 0. Lane and John H. Miller, attorneys, and were informed by them that Colonel Hig- don had no communication to make to the committee and would not further appear and defend the contest.
 A BENNERS, Chairman.
 Upon the report of this committee the body voted to proceed with the hearing of the petition of contest filed by Judge J. P. Stiles.
 The remainder of the day was taken up in the examination of witnesses and ex- amining ballots. The boxes from East Lake, Ensley, Bessemer and Warrior were opened and nine votes cast for D. l.. Hig- don were thrown out and the number deducted from the result as declared by the committee at the canvassing of the vote just after the recent primary Hig- don's majority at that time was three. The elimination of the nine votes yester- day gives Judge Stiles a majority of six. This majority will probably be largely increased when the committee has com pleted it's work of purging the ballots.
 At 5 o'clock the committee adjourned to 9:30 o'clock this morning.

"Forty-five Minutes From Broadway

One of the most notable theatrical en- tertainments booked for the present sea- son in this city is George M Cohan's fas- cinating play, "Forty-five Minutes From Broadway" which comes to the Jefferson theatre this afternoon and tonight, with Corinne as the star. supported by u com- pany under the direction of Klaw x Err langer. The play has enjoyed unusual sue cess since its first production over year ago. It's run of twenty weeks in New York and thirty weeks in Chicago having proved immensely profitable to its man agers. This piece is a novelty, and con- slsts of comedy drama. burlesque, melo- drama and musical comedy most clever ly intermixed In an interesting story pos sessed of an unusual degree of novelty. In his selection of characters and in the originality of situations. MT. Cohan has shown the same genius for getting to- gether novelty and surprises that was mo- ticeabe in his popular Little Johnny Jones'
 Corinne plays the part of Mary, ser want girl In the Castleton household in New Rochelle. This suburb Is just forty five minutes from Broadway by rail and this circumstance gives the piece It's title. Revolving about Mary in the development of the story are a young millionaire, a soubrette, q mercenary mother, villain ous stock broker, many minor characters and "Kid' Burns, a young Broadway boy of strong arm and noble heart who ex- presses a great deal of practical phioso- phy In most entertaining slang.
