Old Persian City.

Persia's ancient city of Tabriz, one
of the scenes OF recent violence in

with battering rams the earthquake
was having its inning The public
buildings bear traces Of this sort OF
violence notably the Kabud Masjid

big INCREASE
IN CHURCHES
pleted Shows Some Highly Inter
esting Facts-Reli1ioua Growth.
Bu Associated Press

WASHINGTON, October 1.-Mucii-
hackers who seem to be preparing
20 assail the churches, will find little
material and less inspiration in the
religious census recently completed
by the census bureau. The report
orings its statistics to the close Of
1906, the last previous census of the
same kind having been made in 1896.
During the sixteen years, the popula-
ton of the continental United States
increased 1873 per cent. but in the
number of communicates or church
members there was an increase of
GOA per cent; in the number Of
church edifices, an increase OF 55.3
per cent; and in the value of church
property an increase of S5.1 per cent.
In 1890 the reported church member
ship represented 1927 per cent. of the
total population, in 1906, 1911 per
cent. The proportion of ministers to
churches is larger now than in 1890.
indicating that churches are more
adequately served than they formerly
were and suggests that the ministry
is by no means decadent calling.

CLARION.LEDGER
is Being SUED
Case Involving $4,000 Was Begun in

Some Testimony Heard.

JACKSON, Miss, October l.
The case of George Wilson against
the Clarion-Ledger for $4,000 dam
ages for defamation of character con
summed ali of the time before the cir
cult court Wednesday, and only four
witnesses were examined, three fol
the plaintiff and one for the defendant
1 This suit grew out of publication

arrested in Lawrence county by Dr..
V. B. Watts, special agent of The insur-
ance department, charging him with
incendiarism, the caption Of which

article was followed by a second, tell

sulting in his being bound over to
await the action of the grand jury.
The jury was empannelled and wit
nesses sworn and put under the rule.
The articles of the Clarion-Ledger
were read by attorneys for plaintiff.
T. M. Hederman had been sum-
moned by the plaintiff to testify as
to circulation of the Clarion-Ledger
and was excused after dong so.
Pete Turnage testified for plaintiff,
briefly referring to his acquaintance
and relationship to George Wilson.
The principal witness for the plain
tiff was George Wilson himself. Said
he was born in Lawrence county and
20 years old; engaged in farming. He

TO RECLAIM The
MAYNARD YOUTHS
New York Takes Long Step Toward
Cottage Home System for Their
Reclamation.

ALBANY, N. Y, October In the
training school for boys for which a
site has at last been secured in
Yorktown, Westchester County, the
state of New York is to take long
step under the cottage home system
for the reclamation of Maynard
youths.
The system is not new. A reforma
tory on the cottsge plan was estab-
lished by the Philanthropic Society OF
London in 1888, one was opened near
Hamburg, Germany, in 1888, and a
third came into existence at Mettray
France, in 1899. The idea took root
slowly, but within a recent period it
has spread rapidly. Great Britain and
the United States have now in opera
ton numerous cottage settlements for
boys and several for girls. A few
years ago the New York Juvenile
Asylum of this city was transformed
into boy colony at Echo Hills, in
Westchester county.

insane HOSPITAL
committee BACK
Visited AsyIums in other States anc
Are Convinced That Mississippi
Is Behind.
Special 10 The Neros

Special to The News
JACKSON, Miss, Oct. 1.-The leg
islatiye Committee appointed by the
last legislature. with instructions to
visit several of the foremost insans
hospitals and asylums in the Uniten
states with view to the improvements
of the two big institutions in this
state, have completed their labors and
returned to Mississippi.
The committee has been on this
jaunt about ten days, during which
time they visited and inspected three
or four asylums in Illinois, Michigan
and other states, and their report
will show that Mississippi is sadly
behind her sisters in several import
ant features connected with the care
of the insane. The preparation of the
report to be made to the legislature
was left to DR.. H. P. Broyles, chair
man of the committee. and Secretary
Longest, and they are expected to
recommend several important changes
and improvements.
Hon. H. NJ. Quinn of this city, who is
a member of the committee, has re-
turned to Jackson fully impressed with
the idea that lack of funds is the only
reason the Mississippi Hospitals for
the Insane are not up to the standard
they found in other states. Here the
per capita appropriation for the sup
port and maintenance of the insane
hospitals is 1925 per year. That in
cludes the cost of all repairs to the
buildings, when the $12 per month is
not more than enough to feed the two
thousand patients now on hand. In
some of the other states visited the
committee found that as high as $155
per capita is appropriated for the
maintenance of the patients, and of
course the institutions are fitted with
the latest and most modern methods
of treating the insane.

GENERAL Pew
RENDERS REPORT

BOSTON, October General Pew
has just rendered his report as iom-
mander of the Blue Army in charge
of the defence of Boston. The point
of his long review of the operations
of his command is found in his ex-
PLANTATION that the rules of the game,
as expounded to him at the eleventh
hour by the umpires, prevented him
from taking a course which he haG
before thought permissible, and from
making manoeuvre that was obvi-
ously important to his success in the
task of defending Boston. The STRAIT.
egg of the war game was necessarily
that of a game intended to work out
certain problems under certain condi
lions laid down in the prospectus. If
there was an omission which misled
General Pew, the fact only emphasizes
the differenre between war and ma.
noeuvers.

CAPTAIN WEBB
NOT SATISFIED
With the Result Of Meeting of Railroad
Commissioners at chicaso-His
Not Accepted.


Special 10 The Mems
JACKSON, Miss, October Rail
road Commissioner Webb has return
ed from the meeting of commissioners
at Chicago, where he went week
ago as member of the special COM
mittee appointed to make recommends
tons as to car service and demur-
rage rules, and does not appear in the
best of humor with the majority of the
commissioners who were at that very
important gathering.
Captain Webb has attended several
of these meetings held in Washing
ton and has insisted on the adoption
by the other states of the rules and
regulations governing car service and
demurrage in Mississippi, considering
them the best shown by any state in
the Union that has not similar rules.
Here in Mississippi the commission
long since secured reciprocal demur-
rage passed on and endorsed by the
Supreme Court and now accepted by
the railroads as the law of the state.
Reciprocal demurrage means that the
railroads are bound to give and take
If they delay train load of goods
shipped over their line they must pay
demurrage to the receiver-if the re-
ceiver delays getting his goods out of
the car or depot he pays the railroad
demurrage
Another rule here is that buyers
living several miles from the railroad
have 8, or 7 days free time in which
to get their goods from the depot,
the number of days free time depend
ing on the number of miles the con-
signee lives from the railroad.
Though there were eighteen states
represented in the Chicago meeting,
only three states voted for the Mis-
sissippi plan Of dealing with such
matters, they we're: Mississippi, Ohio
and Virginia, and these three states
filed minority report against the
adoption of the other plan.
Commissioner Webb states that he
is not at liberty to give out anything
about what was done-and for that
reason he is confined in the above to
statement of what was not done.

SPLITTING NUISANCE
Hawking and Splitting is Caused by
Catarrh Germs.

If the local authorities want to stop
the disgusting habit of splitting NIL
cous on the sidewalks, they had bet
ter instruct the peaple as to the best
method of killing the catarrh germs
and curing catarrh.
You can easily tell by reading the
symptoms beyow whether you have
catarrh or not:
Offensive breath, frequent sneezing,
discharge from nose, stoppage of the
nose, huskiness of the voice, tickling
in throat, droopings in throat, a
cough, pain in chest, loss of strength,
variable appetite, spasms Of cough
ing, low spirited at times, raising OF
mucous, difficult in breathing, loss OF
vital force.
Hays & Field have a sensible rene
dy (money back if it falls) for ca
tarrh, called Hyomei which is a va
porized air so antiseptic that when it
is breathed over the inflamed and
germ-infested membrane, it kills all
germ life and cures oatarrh.
The price, including hard rubber in
haler, is only $1.00, and money back
If it doesn't cure. Extra bottles, So
