CARMACK MURDER
 CASE GOES TO JURY
End of Long Murder Trial at Nashville May Come Today-D.sagreement
 Expected.
(speciaI from United Press.l

Special from United Press.l Nashville. Tenn, March 17.-Lacking but a few days of having lasted two months and filled with exciting incl dents from beginning to end, the. fa- nous case of Colonel Duncan B. Coop CT, his son Robin and ex-Sheriff John D. Sharp, charged with the murder of Former Senator Edward w. Car mack. went to the jury to-day with the delivering of Judge Hart's long instructions. The charge covered every point raised in the trial. There were frequent disquisitions on the appH- cation or the common law to the case which to iirapt juror would have been hfkhly confusing.
 While the indictment" said Judge Hart, contains but one charge on it's face under the law it embraces four involuntary manslaughter-" The court instructed the jury on the various de- grees of manslaughter and homicide. As the jury filed out Colonel Cooper, the aged defendant, smiled broadly in dicating that his lawyers had told him that there was nothing unfavorable in the instructions. General ojiniOn is that the jury will disagree but the de- fendants are confident of 8 verdict of acquittal.
 The trial of the Coopers and Sharp for the killing of former Senator Ca-- mack in point of interest and bitter ness stands out eminent in the criminal annals of Tennessee, both ow- ing to the prominence of the princi- pals in the tragedy which shocked the entire nation and because 1t marked a climax of one of the hardest fought political campaigns that the South has seen in years.

SHUT DOWN OR STRIKE APRIL I Only Way Ont is a New Three Year
 Agreement.

New York. March 17-President George F. Baer of the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad for the first time in a number of weeks did not pay hts usual weekly visit to the city ye-tcr- day to meet the presidents of the other anthracite coal carrying roads It was learned on good authority that the operators will shut down the colIferfes on April l unless the miners come to an agreement with them before that time or a strike Is declared. It fs con- ceded that with so much coal above ground that would be a bad time to strike. but the operators in case the'r offer of renewal of the agreement is not accepted on April 1 and thare is no strike then will not allow the union leaders to put off matters untf' the winter is near. when a strike would be most efectice. Only three things can happen on April Ia shut down. a strike. or a continuance of the present agreement for three years longer

There was lots of tramping from the other wing of the capital to the wing occupied by the governor to inquire to the same effect. The upshot of the matter was that a commission was named and their re- port is now before the General As- sembly.
 "Over capitalization" continued the former governor, 'is one of the great est evils that can come into a country. I have believed this for years. When those trolley charters used to come up to me I wondered how the General As sembly could be so blind as to pass them. After I had vetoed two or three of them, I said to myself, ought to stop here, or keep on vetoing?' I con- cluded that my duty was to veto. The powers that were conferred by these charters was something enormous. Most of them did not provide for one cent to be paid in. One of them provided for an issue of bonds big enough to pay for the whole project. This charter was the only one in which my veto was SuStained.''

The Plain Truth

Digesting food alone does not
cure indigestion or other stomach
troubles any more than cathartic
cures constipation-is temporary
relief only. But digesting the food,
healing and cleansing the stomach
and intestines does restore them
to the normal condition, and in that
way a permanent cure can be
made. Powell's Stomach Remedy
does this. 1t is the only product
that will do this; it relieves the
first dose, and is very pleasant to
take. Powell's Stomach Remedy
can be depended upon; it does
make permanent cures. Do not &C.

date druggists sell it.

BLONDE HAIR DOES
NOT DENOTE MORAL
FROM PAGE ONE.

cred IN for vagrancy from the dis
orderly places of the downtown dis
trict but few weeks ago. there
were less than half dozen blondes.
About one half of these were of the
peroxide class, who were in fact
brunettes.
This presents a strong argument
in favor of the blonde women. pro-
viding there are as many blonde
women in the world as there are
brunettes. This, however, is seri-
ously questioned. Survey the surg
ing masses of mingled humanity
vending its way down the city's
busy streets and it will be seen
that the brunettes seem to have the
majority by a wide margin
Here is what Judge Mann has
to say regarding this question::
Il don't believe complexion, tex
ture of hair, or general makeup has
anything to do with a woman's
character in general. l have OBJ
served that the primary cause of
girls and wOmen's sufferings and
decentralization, is the environments
in which they live, and the circum-
stances surrounding their lives.
'In the underworld we can find
all kinds of characters and varied
makeups in both brunettes and
blondes; in the large, strong. intel
ligent appearing types. and in the
small, frail and weak types. Some
of them seem to have the best of
health, while others are practically
invalids.
"A mere girl. like a matured wo-
man, is susceptible to sympathy
more than any other feeling, and
naturally at some time during their
younger days, that sympathy is
preyed upon-in many cases by
men who have nothing but evil in
their thoughts. Whether a girl is
blonde or a brunette, as rule
her mind, primarily. is pure and
simple, but as | said before, en-
vironments and conditions sur
rounding the early years of their
womanhood have practically all to
do with teh formation of their char
acters.
Hence home environments
should be made the best possible.
They should be made morally up
lifting in every way and parents
should not pass too rapidly by the
matter of training their children
to use discretion in the selection
of their associates.
