TATT00ING FOR BATHERs.

Atlantic City.
Jim Squid, ex-sailorman and expert
handler of india ink points" has been
hiding from the irate fathers and
brothers Of a score Of fair bathing
maids since the latter proudly ap-
peared on the beach at Atlantic City
the other day with tattoo marks on
their fair arms and shoulders.
Spectators perched in beach chairs
gasped when they saw the first girl
swing up the beach bearing on her
rounded upper arm an intwined an
Choir and cable, and the surprise be-
came shock when it was discovered
that other beach maidens had adopt
ed the fad Of having their arms mark
ed with various devices.
At first glance it was supposed that
the marks, which ranged from the
anchor to hearts pierced with arrows,
were merely painted on, but when It
was discovered that the marks were
needed in and practically indelible
there was general stampede among
parents to discover the artist.
Several doting fathers began at once
a search for Jim squid.

STANDARD OIL SUIT.
History Of Famous Trial, When ,
Eina Of S2q. 24n. nfl Mas Innnnsed

History of Famous Trial, When q
Fine of $29,24o,oo0 Was Imposed.
The decision handed down by the
United States circuit court of appeals
in Chicago reversing the fine of $780,
100000 imposed on the Standard Oil
Company Of Indiana by Judge Kene-
saw M. Lands was the result OF a
sensational trial in April Of 1907 be-
fore Judge Lands in the United States
district court wherein the Standard
Oil Company Of Indiana, subsidiary
Of the Standard Oil Company Of New
Jersey, was under Indictment for re-
ceiving rebates from the Chicago and
Alton road.
The shipments Of oil on which the
rebates were obtained were made from
Whiting, Ind, to East st. Louis. The
regular rate was IS cents per barrel,
but the Standard got rebates which
brought its price down to 81 cents.
On April 10, 1907, the jury found
against the company.
Following the trial of the case, John
D. Rockefeller, William Rockefeller,
Charles NJ. Pratt and other high Off
sials of the company were subpoenaed
and testified before Judge Lands as
to the earnings Of the Standard Oil
Company of New Jersey during the
three years covered by the indict-
ments. They said the company's earn
ings in that period were about $780,
100000. They testified on July 6,
1907, and on the following Aug. 3
Judge Lands imposed the fine of $780,
100000 against the Standard OH Com
pany Of Indiana, which has but ST.
100000 capital.
1t was shown that rebates amount
ing to about $4,000 were collected on
shipments in 1,462 cars, though the
number Of shipments was but thirty
six. Judge Lands imposed the maxi
mum fine under the Elkins law of $780,
900 on each Of the 1852 car lots In
stead Of the shipments, though the re-
bates were made on the shipments.
+ In its defense the Standard OIL
claimed it supposed the 81 cent rate
was the lawful one, as no rate had
been publicly posted by the Chicago
and Alton road, as the law required.
When the fine was announced the
Standard Oil promptly took an appeal,
and the recent decision was the result,

Nature Studies In Africa

The lion and the unicorn,

The fauna of the Afric wilds :.
Are waiting for the call
To lure them from the hunting man
And to the timber tall.

It sounds like one), because, unless
He packed 1t, don't you know,
He couldn't get along at all
Wherever he might go.
The walrus on Sahara's wastes
Is scratching in the sand
To make a hole to hide himself
From that destructive hand;
And ducks, with life preservers On,
Are out of sight Of land.
The grizzly bear will climb tree,
AS grizzlies always do;
The red deer of the White Nile field
Are looking mighty blue,
And Bengal tigers In their stripes
Have skipped from Timbuktu. 5.
The tail giraffe will duck his nut
And tie his neck In knots: rs
The leopard will, with due regard
For safety, change his spots,
And all the tapirs will light out
To fire the Hottentots.
The fierce opossum and the coon
Through fear will lose their fat;
The drum bird In the forest deep
Will beat a Wild rattat,
And vampires, everywhere disturbed,
Will go OFF on a bat.
The Africanus fauna bunch
Is booked to get its share
When Roosevelt strikes that sanburnt

And opens up for fair,
And IL there be an octopus
In hiding anywhere
Between the cape and pyramids

Home COMPANY GIVES
LARGER VALUATION
Cumberland Assessment Placed at
$17,12s by the Railroad Commission.
Home Company Gives in Its Valua-
ton at 500, s2o-AIlowed to Stand.

The railroad commission did do a
little something to the Cumberland
Telephone Company after all.
It raised the assessment to some
extent, but not to what the city as
SCISSOR, who is familiar with the
property. thought was a correct valu-
alton.
The Cumberland gave in it's assess
ment to the commission at $10,075,
but on account of the complaints that
were being made, raised it to ST, 1873.
The Home Telephone Company gave
in it's assessment at $2O,92O and it was
allowed to stand.
This shows a difference in valuation
of 1892 in favor of the Home Com
pany.
The Cumberland gave in seventeen
miles of main line and valued it at
800 per mile; POI miles of side line,
valued at $40 per mile. This valuation
was slightly raised by the commission,
making a total of 1887.
The Home gave in twelve miles of
main line, valued at $3.50 per mile and
$50 miles of side line valued at $50
per mile, making a total valuation OF
line mileage Of 81, 200, or $3,S63 more
than the Cumberland pays taxes on.
Just why and how the Home lines are
so much more valuable than the Cum
berland. the railroad commission has
not explained.
The Home Company gave in 742 tel
ephones as the number in use, the
Cumberland gave in S08. and it is sup
posed that this included phones in
Hotel Hattiesburg If this was the
case, the Home Company on August
I, had more residence and business
phones than the Cumberland exclu-
sive of Hotel Hattiesburg. The num-
Der of Home phones has greatly in
creased, however, in the last month.
This comparison is taken from the
official valuation made by the railroad
commission and is published in order
that the people of Hattiesburg may
know which company is the most
friendly to them and which one is will
ing to pay a just amount of taxation
without any favors from the railroad
commission, which body seems per-
rectly willing for the Cumberland to
value its property at less than the
Home, and therefore pay less
amount of taxes.
