Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness. It Is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and flneness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste OF varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance. but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch. as II can be applied
much more thinly because of its great

CENTRAL GETS OFF LIGHT IN
ARBITRATION.

An increase Of only $751 .659.30 was
secured by the state in the tax arbi-
tration on the franchise Of the Cen
trail Of Georgia Railroad, which con
cluded at /: 80 o'clock Thursday aft
ernoon.
The fight was only on the franchise
of the road, as the assessment on the
physical property was accepted with
out dispute. The Central returned
its 1,O7O.7s miles of road and other
physical properties in the state at
$13,522,667. Comptroller General
Wright assessed it at $16.sOs.744, an
increase Of $3,2SS,067, which was ac-
cepted.
The franchise was returned at So
3O1,173, and Comptroller Wright as
sessed it at $13,159.376, an increase
Of $9,556,203. On this assessment
the Central made a fight.
The franchise value was fixed bv
the road in its return at $3,O84 per
mile, and the umpire. Judge A. l..
Miller. fixed it at $3.7s5 per mile.
making the total franchise valne
&,O52.932.20. As stated above. this
is an increase Of only $751.659.3O over
the original return. The award was
concurred in by Alex Smith, arbi.

HOW GEN. TooMRs DEFENDEn
A SLAVE

Many incidents are related ills
tratlng the mutual affection of mas
ter and slave in the South before tbe
war. The Columbia State tells of
such a case.
A negro man, strong and healthy
out getting gray from years, was on
trial for murder He had killed an
other negro and had been lying in
jail for some time, awaiting his trial
The testimony against him was qivep

killing. When the case was callad

old man rose, and in voice deep and

said:
"Will your honor please mark ne
for the defense9"
1t was General Robert Toombs Ills
face was wrinkled with age, but II
was large and strong, and the lines
OF intellect made deeper wrinkles
than those Of age. His white hair
rolled back in curls from a splendid
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-09-12

brow His form was large and tall
and straight, although his movements
were slow with The years. His eyes
still flashed as when he stood in the
senate chamber at Washington.
The witnesses all seemed unfriend-
ly toward the prisoner. In his own
statement he claimed that the killing
was in self-defensc.
General Toombs analysed the tes-
timony Of the eve witnesses, and then
concluded thus:
"Your honor, please, and gentle
men of the jury: A few years ago
my only brother fell wounded on the
battlefield of Gettysburg. He lay
there bleeding to dath, with no friend
ly hand to help him. Shot and shell
were sweeping the earth all about
him. No friend could go to him, no
surgeon dared approach him.
"My brother had a body servant,
who waited on him in camp. The ne
gro saw his masters danger, and
straight out into that sheet of battle
and flame and. death he went. A
piece Of shell tore the flesh from his
breast, but on he went, and gathering
my brother in his arms, the blood of
the man mingling with the blood of
the master, he bore him to safety and
life. Jim, open your collar!"
The prisoner rose and opened his
shirt in the front. On his breast the
jury saw the long, jagged scars where
the shell had torn its way.
"Jim's skin may be black" the
general continued, che may be a ne
gro; but the man who would do what
he did has a soul too white ever to
have killed man except in defense
Of his own life"
The jury agreed with him and Jim
was cleared.

CLUBS IN GEORGIA.

In Georgia it must be decided that
q club is not public place before it
will be permitted to pay a tax and
establish lockers. The great outcry
made over the discovery that the bill
taxing lockers might prove a loop
hole through which the prohibition
law would be evaded, is hardly jus
titled, according to the author of the
prohibition measure, Hon. Seaborn
Wright, Of Rome "It is for the
courts to decide whether a club is
public place, saws Mr.. WRIGHT. "If >
club is not public place then." says
Mr.. Wright, "iquor can be kept in
club room, or locker, upon payment
Of the $500 tax; if club is a pub
lie place, then liquor cannot be kept.
1t is for the courts to decide whether
a club is a public place"
Therefore, everything will depend
upon the construction of the courts
as to what constitutes club. Is a
club a public or a private place? II
would seem that such would be de-
termined entirely in accordance with
the conduct of the club. A club. fire.
quented by small number, not pri
marily for drinking purposes, might
be considered private place, but
a so-called club formed for drinking
purposes and frequented largely be,

courts Of Georgia would, no doubt.
so hold and break up any, if so or
ganiZed. We can conceive of great
abuses growing out of the organiza-
ton Of such clubs. Clubs organized
IN order to secure such lockers would
be an unmitigated evil, even where
prohibition did not prevail. They
would have manv of the evils Of sa-
looms. Clubs, however, where the
locker feature is entirely incidental
and which are not flagrant induce
ments to intemperance. are, of
course. far less Objectionable. The
judges Of the state Of Georgia, there
fore, have in their hands, by their
opinions as to what constitutes a
private place, weapon to prevent the
clubs Of that state from becoming
mere drinking places. Georgia has
reflected the general feeling of the
South against saloons. OF course,
prohibition will not prevent all
Watson's weekly Jeffersonian., 1907-09-12

drinking. It will greatly reduce it,
however, and it will prohibit the sa-
loon, which has been the source OF
SO much evil. We cannot imagine
that even locker clubs at their worst
would be as dangerous as the saloons,
and with the above explanation OF
the law by the author, and the reason
able Interpretation to be placed upon
it, which may be expected from the
Georgia judiciary. il is evident that
the club feature has none Of the dan
gers which have been predicted. 1t
would be well for other states, how
ever, in considering prohibitory meas
ures, to avoid ambiguous language OF
this point.-Knoxville Sentinel.

this section. The Stevenson eyten-
sion, q line about forty miles long,
which is being constructed by W. }
Oliver & Co. for the Southern Rail
way, is the largest contract affected.
Five sub-contractors have been at
work, employing about $50 laborers,
Of which number about fifty were
skilled laborers. The contractors are
H. H. -Thrasher & Co., Yandell Bros.
& Co., j. H. Edwards & Co., HI. Kreiss
& Sons, and Frank Maloney & Co.
The Phoenix Bridge Co., Of Pittsburg,
which had the contract for the cree
ton Of the steel superstructure for
the bridges of the extension, sus-
pended work Monday, after erecting
a bridge over Battle Greek and pre-
pairing for work on the bridge over
Sequatchie river. The action Of the
bridge company was In response to
orders received from the headquar-
ters of the company, which was in
turn ordered to suspend work by the
Southern Railway.
The Stevenson extension represents
an outlay of about $4,000,000, and if
the work was pushed to completion
seuld be entirely finished within
sighteen months. The excavation III
the tunnel through Lookout Mountain
has been completed and the tunnel
il now ready for walling.
In addition to the work on the
Stevenson extension, the Southern
Railway has been engaged in double
tracking for a distance Of seventeen
miles in the vicinity Of Ooltewah.
This work also is being done by W.
j. Oliver & Co under the direction
of the resident engineer Of the road
at Knoxville, Tenn. A force of sew
eral hundred men have been employed
on this part Of the work The double
trackage was started about a year
ago, and is nearing completion.
The action of the Southern Rail-
way is considered by many to be a
"bluff" to stem off the tide of ad-
verse railroad legislation. For what
time the work is to be suspended is
purely a matter of conjecture. 1t
is generally believed that it will be
of short duration, dependent upon the
outcome Of whatever its purpose. A
gentleman who is a close student of
railroad affairs, considered the move
Of the Southern Railway to be of
more far-reaching effect, stating his
belief that the Morgan interests are
acting thus as a political move and
that the work will not be resumed
for about eighteen months. Another
advanced the theory that it was a
move on the part Of the Morgan in
terests to force down the stock of
the Southern and tributary lines for
financial purposes.
