TAX COLLECTORS OF MACON
AND CONVICTION REPORT

The annual reports Of Tax Collectors
OF Covington and Macon counties were
made yesterday to the State Auditor
through Chief Clerk Brooks Smith.
Quite a significant array Of figures is
presented by comparing the collections
OF Covington County taxes with those
Of only four years ago.
In Covington County in 1909 the re-
port for the State general fund was
$1T.44i.2e, and for 1905 1t was 110.-
z44: for soldiers in 1909. $6,995s4, In
1905, SAis9.e4; for schools. in 1908, $780,
9s7 Sc, and in 1905 $13.3s5. This shows
g remarkable growth Of taxable values
in the South Alabama county. The re-
port was submitted this year by Col
lector w. W. Walters.
The report for Macon County was
made as follows by Collector Breed
love: State general fund. $1o,1o0.4S; SOL

Masters to Be Appointed
July IS.
CONFERENCE IS ADJOURNED
Railroad Cases Again Argued by
Counsel.
Judge Jones Rules That Claims for
Exeess Freight ana Passenger
Rate. Shall Not BE Taken
Up Until Final
Judgment.

Attorneys yesterday morning agreed
upon the terms of the order of refer
ence defining the powers of the mas
tiers to be appointed by the Federal
Court for the Middle District of Ala
hama, for the taking of testimony in
the famous rate cases. The order as
agreed upon was transcribed and win
be the order which Judge Jones will
issue on July Is, the date upon which
the cases will be at issue and the mas
tiers appointed.
The agreement relative to the pow
ers Of the masters was reached yes
terday after four hours elaboration
following an all day session on the
day previous. During the afternoon
session of the conference of the attor-
neys, the matter OF overcharge was
argued. The attorneys for the State
claimed immediate liability. The at
torneys for the railroads, on the other
hand, claimed that the difference be-
tween the rate enjoined and the rate
collected ought not to be returned at
the present time, as the rates must
be finally adjudged reasonable. Return
at the present time would therefore
be unjust, If in the final Judgment II
was found that the lower rates were
confiscatory.
1t was humorously suggested at the
charge were presented at the present
time, the clerk of the court would be
literally swamped with claims and the
cost enormous. 1t was thought that
there would be at least 1000 claims
filed for each day Of the two years
since the legislation. On this basis
there would be something like 7,o00,-
900 claims in the office forced to re-
main there until final judgment.
"A
matter, Judge Thomas G. Jones de-
cided that the claims should not be
filed at the present time, unfolding the
contention of the attorneys for the
railroads. Judge Jones' opinion in the
matter follows:
Respondents move for a reference
to ascertain the various amounts due
passengers and shippers on account Of
the charges made by the carriers while
the preliminary injunction was in
force, in excess OF the rates fixed by
the several acts of the Legislature and
their payment now that 1t has been
dissolved. This motion Is met by a
counter motion TO suspend any right
of action on the bond on behalf OF
such shippers and passengers, until
the legality of the rate shall be finally
determined in this cause, and to mod
fly the terms of the bond so as to
clearly show that the liability of the
carriers Hereunder is to be determin-
ed by the final decree in the cause.
Looking alone to the letter of the bond.
no liability accrues until the injunction
is dissolved or vacated as having been
wrongfully issued, or until It is de-
ternined that the rates whose enforce
nent was sought by the bill Of COM
plant to be enjoined should be or
should have been enforced.
1.-THE Circuit Court refused TO dis
solve the injunction, and upon appeal
to the Circuit Court of Appeals, the IN
junction was dissolved. not because 1t

Bad Breath From
Stomach and Catarrh
Many Persons Are Victims of This
Disa9reeable Complaint.

Many Persons Are Victims of This
Dlsa9reeable Complaint.
It Is quite common to hear Of per-
sons being spoken OF as thoroughly
agreeable companions, highly enter
tanning in conversation, fascinating
and attractive In manner. gifted, we'll
read, accomplished and possessing all
the attributes and qualifications neces-
sary to make them desirable guests
at parties and entertainments, but for
the single fact that, for some cause
OF other, such as stomach trouble,
decay or teeth, or throat and nasal
catarrh, they are the unfortunate
possessors OF bad breath.
That one drawback is sufficient to
make them almost universally
Stunned, and no matter how erudite
or scholarly they may be, how much
they may have travelled, or how large
a fund Of interesting anecdote they
may be capable Of relating in an en-
tertaining manner, the fact that they
are victims Of offensive breath causes
every other consideration TO be set
aside by their friends.
This is indeed unfortunate, and 1t
has been the means Of causing many
a person to avoid society and social
Intercourse, because. realizing as they
do, how disagreeablo it must be TO
others, and wishing at the same time
to avoid embarrassment and crtu-
cism. thBy are left with the only al
beruative Of remaining of to them
selves, and being deprived OF many OF
the pleasures OF life.
Such . deprivation is, however,
wholly unnecessary, and persons who
have long been troubled with foul
breath from eny cause. should know
that there Is q remedy for its relief,
bne which Is a powerful absoroer and
remover OF foul gases from the ston-
ach. and an ef1cient oxidizer and
ptIrineF OF offensive breath. whether
from stomach or teeth, or caused BY
oatarrh--and that Justly celebrated
remedy is sTUART'S CHARCOAL

Thousands Of PERSONS testify 70 the
tact that though thsy were once VIC
uus of bad breath, which compelled

freely With thsir friends, to attend
entertainments, parties and the the
atre. and TO enjoy life generally,
happy In the tho0ght that through the

from the pen of that gifted editor and
present United States senator, Bob
Taylor:

money and keep its gates ajar to my
happy girls while yet they linger under
my roof than to clutch it with misers
hand until all the harpstrings of youth
are broken and all its music forever
fed. would rather spend my last
nickel for bag Of striped marbles to

boys than to deny them their childish
pleasures, and leave them bag of gold

Every family should have a 'curfew
which should ring tonight" and all
other nights if needed. These curfews
are inexpensive aud can be made at
home. Take piece of siding two feet
long and wittle one end to handle. Take
child that needs the curfew and bend
it over a barrel. Now take the siding
and use it as clapper. Put it on hot,
dividing the strokes evenly, and see
that none miss. Good for boy or girl
up to lS, and three applications are
warranted to cure the most pronounced
case of street loafing that exists. The
music is said to be more effective than
