 Little Rock, June 25.-Special- Attorney General w. F. Kirby yesterday rendered an opinion to the effect that although the property of officers and enlisted men of the state guard is sub ject to taxation, the men them- selves cannot be made to do street or road labor.
 The opinion is as follows:
 June 22, 1908. Hon. Paul Little, Adjutant Cen
 eral, City:
 Dear Sir-Yours of the 2Oth instant, asking my opinion as to whether or not members of the Arkansas National Guard are subject to street duty, is re- ceived
 All officers and enlisted men of the active militia of this state. who comply with their military duties, by this act shall be en- titled to exemption from pay ment of all poll taxes. except the poll tax prescribed by the con stitution for the support of the public schools; exemption from the payment ot any road CT street tax, and from any road duty whatsoever under the law $ of this state and exemption from jury service or duty of every character and description.'- Sec tion 34, Act May 23, 1907.
 "ln an opinion to Hon. A. O Graves, prosecuting attorney of the Eight circuit, on May ,. 1905. l held this act should not be construed as exempting the property of officers and enlisted men of the active militia of the state from the payment of road and street taxes, since such a construction would bring it into conflict with the constitution and render it void It doeshow- ever, in express terms, exempt such officers and enlisted men who comply with their military duties, as prescribed in the act from any and all road duties and labor upon the streets of tho state.
 Such officers and men canno, be compelled to perform any la bor upon the roads and streets

Jaws Locked
Selected

Joseph Killelea suffered an unusual
experience while at work at the Buffers
plant at Sixmile canyon yesterday, by
having his upper and lower jaws locked
for three hours. He is. employed about
the cyanide tanks and it is thought
that by inhaling the fumes from the
different chemicals used in this
department caused the jaws to lock.
Several attempts were made at the
plant to open his jaws, but to no avail,
and he was brought to this city. DR..
Hodges was hastily summoned and put
the young man under opiates and soon
had his mouth open. Joe is now out of
danger. He states that he would not
undergo the same experience for all the
money in the world, as he was in ter

suffering. -Enterprise
