 Mrs. Lampirthy was as unwarmed by his words as an iceberg in the glare of the sun. She was thinking of the foolhardy and ridiculous enterprise into which her husband had been drag ged by this man.

 He could not have spoken any words more calculated to harden the heart of this woman. His request might have been granted at once but for his first mention of the millionaire. This last reference to Mir. Lampirthy was fatal.

The large class which has been en- gagged for five weeks in the special course of training librarians will com plete its work today after most suc- cessfuI season. The concluding routine of the course will occupy the morning and in the afternoon and night the vis- spective homes.

 Justice Tyson spoke in most en- tertaining as well as enlightening man. ner of the courts of the country and the State The feature of the talk was dts simplicity, thereby enabling young ladies of no special legal inclination to comprehend the exact aims ot the courts and therefore justice.
 The, origin of judicial power was spoken of by Justice Tyson at some length and the power was treated in it's relation to the other departments of government. The functions ot the courts came in for a general discussion by the speaker. He was given generous applause at the end of the lecture When Justice Tyson had made his ad- dress the various State departments had alternately spoken to the class Of its work through the head of the de- pertinent. all in accordance with the design of Dr. Thomas M. Owen, Director of the Department of Archives and His tory, under whose supervision the H. brary extension work Is being done.
 It Is understood that the Montgomery members of the library class will chose to continue through the rest of the summer the work of the character ac- compliShed during the past five weeks. It is firmly believed by every one con nected with the work that valuable equipment has been given the members of the class for future work in their respective assignments throughout the State. Under the statute providing for the work, the course has been absolute ly free to all members.
 AS an evidence of the continued in- terest in the course, there were twenty members to begin the summer and at the end nineteen faithful are to be found sticking to the work. The ab- sent member was compelled by sickness In the family to return home,

SEVERAL PEOPLE
 HURT IN A RIOT
White and CoIored Laborers Clash in Louisiana Lumber Camp
 at Verda.

Aloha, La, March 16.-About mid night a special train passed through here en route to Alexandria, La, from Verdo, La, a small lumber town in Grant parish.
 Parties in charge of the special train said that there had been another serious race riot at Verda and several persons had been seriously wounded

MARRIAGES ARE
 DECLARED VOID
Right Rev. Bishop Awdry Admits Er- TOT of Anglican Clergy
 in Japan.

Tokio March 15.-The question of An gelican religious marriages in Japan is just now exciting considerable attention among foreign residents in general and English residents in particular
 The admission of the Right Rev. Bishop Awdry head of the Anglican church in Japan, leaves little room for doubt that some 90 or 40 marriages contracted in con- formity with the rites of the English church are in the eyes of the English law invalid, and that the offspring of such unions are illegtimate.
 This tardy realization on the part of the Anglican clergy in Japan of grave error for which they must be held morally re- sponsible is the outcome of certain d- tuted in England by parties who were married by Bishop Awdry himself in TolSio.
 In the course of the proceedings the judge declared that he was unable to grant a divorce on the ground that he fish law a legal marriage had been con tracted. If this ruling should be sustained it must apply with equal force to all other British marriages in Japan contracted under the same conditions.
 The clergy, in the person of their head. having frankly avowed their mistake, the only point now worthy of consideration is a remedy. The only feasible one would seem to be another act of parliament 10 legalize these marriages

 The series of holdups, robberies and murders which have been perpetrated by negroes during the past few weeks cul- minating in the hodups and murder of James Williams and Robert Bonner ne- groes, last night, has. forced the police to resort to strenuous measures in rid ing the city of the bad negro element responsible for the crimes.

RAILROADS AND
 WAR DEPARTMENT
SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT HAS TO BE MADE FOR TRANSPORTA- TON OF NATIONAL GUARD AT REDUCED RATES.


 Washington, March 15.-Since the cents a mile railroad fare agitation has been in the foreground, the question of paying for the transportation of the troops of the National Guard over bond aided railroads is before the war depart ment.
 Railroads in several states have re- fused to carry militiamen at the old rate which was 50 per cent of the tariff for passengers. Payments have been previ' ously made on that basis and circular from the war department dos not perm paying a rate in excess of one-half r. the regular rate.
 The state authorities have been no i- fled to issue transportation reques' and leave final settlement of the amol due the railroads to the war departme i When settlement is made and the eX amount paid, it will be charged to a stated allotment of the appropriation the militia
