Lessees Cannot Remove Timber.

Once more the United States circuit
court of appeals has sustained Missis.
sippis contention that the lessees of six.
teenth section lands in this State have
no right to remove merchantable timber
thereon. and in this latest rendition on
the subject, the commonwealth wins a
clear-cut and more decisive victory than
on the former occasion when the case
was up for review.
The decision rendered by the tribunal
at New Orleans is based on one of the
several branches of the suits filed by the
Forest Product Company, nonresident
corporation, against the board of super
visors of Lawrence county, seeking to
remove all clouds from it's right to re-
move timber from sixteenth section lands
on which the company holds leases.
The United States circuit court of ap-
peals reversed Judge Niles on the orig
inal suit, and the second branch of the
litigation submitted to that tribunal
meets a similar fate. The latest ruling,
however, is of far more Importance than
the former, as it involves all of the legal
questions that were determined by the
State supreme court in favor of the COM
monwealth, and these contentious are
uniformly upheld by the Federal tri-
bunal.
The decision involves more than 49,.
100000 worth of sixteenth section tim
Der lands in Mississippi held by non,
resident corporations, some of which
have been engaged in the removal of
timber, and who, under this latest de.
cision, will be compelled to reimburse
the school funds in the counties where
the timber was removed to the full ex.
tent of the value of the timber.

TAKE CARE OF GOOD HEALTH
Mistake Most People Make Is In Wait
ing for Bad to Come and
Then Coddling It.

If we would take as good care of
our good health as we do of our bad
health we would have more of the
former and less of the latter. We set
our good health down in draft and
let it get its feet wet; we infringe on
its sleep time and gorge it with un-
suitable food at irregular hours. We
load it with nerve-racking cares and
duties, and reply to its frantic ap-
peals for rest with, you haven't
time" We squeeze it with clothing;
we distract its ears with noise and its
lungs with bad air. But we put our
bad health in a quiet room, on soft
couch. We robe it in comfortable
gown; we give it pure air at stated
intervals; we put ice on it's head and
hot water at it's feet; we feed it with
food convenient for it. We take
away all care and responsibility; We
give it a soothing draught to rest it;
and we pay doctor 50 to come and
leave it scrap of paper and say that
it will better tomorrow. One might
think we preferred bad health to good
health.-From an Article in Good
Health.

State Needs More Land.

According to the reports of the peni.
Tertiary trustees, there has been ginned
and baled, ready for marketing, about
700 bales of this seasons crop, though
none has been sold as yet, the sales SO
far having been confined to one or two
lots of seed. All three of the trustees
and Superintendent Neylands are prac
tically agreed in their estimates of the
probable gross return from the State
cotton fields, which is estimated at be.
tween 1000 and $500 bales, though Col.
Leroy Taylor, the president of the board,
places his estimate at 1000 bales, in
round numbers
President Taylor has made up the fol
lowing as his estimate of all crops: Corn,
10000 bushels; cotton, 1000 bales; peas,
$500 bushels; molasses, 10000 gallons,
and hay enough to supply all farms.
In the course of his report, President
Taylor gives expression to the follow
ing suggestions:
"Thc State has opened up and put in
cultivation about 700 acres of new land
this year, which is nearly all that we
have in the delta to clear up. SO, l
would respectfully suggest that, mas.
much as there is continuous increase
of the criminal population, it would be
well for our governor to recommend to
the next legislature the purchase OF
more delta land, adjoining the State
lands, and sell the Rankin and Oakley
hill farms, which have never been profit.

New Orleans for School Funds.

State Superintendent of Education J.
N. Powers is working upon plan which,
when perfected he believes will solve the
problem so far as it's solution is possible
of an equitable distribution of the COM
mon school fund of the state, as dis
tinguished from the county, sixteenth
section and other funds used for the
same purpose. Instead of basing the dis
tribution upon the total number of educa-
BILE children in each county, Prof Powers
would take the average attendance in
the schools Of each county for the prsvi.

VIII Seek the South Pole.

A. Henry Savage Landor, the Eng
lish explorer, who will soon make an
attempt to reach the south pole, is of
the opinion that Lieut.. Shackleton
failed through having cumbersome
and unnecessarily large expedition.
Mr.. Landors theory is that a small
caravan of trusted and hardy men,
lightly equipped as in his expeditions
through Asia and Africa, is best. Mr..
Landor's activity in aeronautic inves-
legations gives color to the rumor that
an airship will be used by him in his
expedition.

VIOLATED ANTIQUE
 CITY ORDINANCE
Expressman Charged With Obstructing the Streets, Is Dealt With
 leniently.

The case of H. Hardness. an ex- pressman. who with others. was arrest ed on the charge of violating a city ordinance relative to obstructing the streets. came up before Recorder Thomas yesterday. Technically Hark- ness was found guilty. but he was giv- en until January 10 to remove his ve- hicle from the stand in front of his place of business on Center street.
 When the cases of the expressmen came up for trial 1t was found that the ordinance violated dates back to 1889 when conditions in the city were somewhat different.
 The ordinance declares that the only places in the city where job or market wagons may stand is on the north, east and west sides of the city hall Most of the expressmen have places of business and are in the habit of leaving their wagons standing out side. It is violation of the ordinance and to some extent Obstructs traffic.
 However, as a strict reading of the law would work a hardship on many. Judge Thomas gave Hardness several weeks in which to move elsewhere. and in the meanwhile a new ordinance, better adapted to present conditions, will be presented.

 Among those who addressed the council was c w Mckee. He brought his electric light bills with him. He said that the company could cut its bills in half and still make money. He | argued that if electricity were cheap so that fans could be generally used. many people who leave every summer and spend their money elsewhere, would remain in the valley.
 \ MT. Thalheimer wanted to know where the city is to get gas from if it constructs its own electric plant. He said that it was inconceivable that the present company would continue in existence after the electric trade had been taken from it, and dispense gas only.
 Dr. Foss showed that electricity could be manufactured at a cost of 1.S3 cents a kilowatt He said that the present price was too high for the man of moderate circumstances. '1 have no argument with the Pacific Gas and Electric company" he declared; 'I do not blame them for getting all they can out of the town while they are in business; but I do blame the citizens for submitting to their charges when there is no necessity for it."
 Frank DeSouza said: We have made one success and there is no cause to hesitate. We have found that water can be supplied more cheaply and with better service by the city than by private ownership. Phoenix has made one stride in this direction. In every city in the country they are testing. this idea of municipal owner ship.
 When Secretary Ballinger was here I asked him what position the govern ment would take in this matter of furnishing power to the cities. He answered that it had always been the policy of the government. and always would be, to favor the municipality over a private corporation"

The Dyspepsia
 Of Old Age
Strong Digestion and an Adequate Nutrition Invariably Mean a
 Long and Healthy Life.

There is process known as meta | bolism going on constantly in the body and by which the tissues are built up and after having served their purpose in the physical economy, are torn down ' and cast off So long as the due relation between
 waste and supply is maintained. nu- triton, and the various functions of
 the body are continued. But after mid de life and in old age there comes a
 time when waste exceeds supply. and | when the various clements which con stitute the different fluids. tissues and organs no longer hold their due pro- portion. and the principle of life itself becomes enfeebled, the body no longer having power to assimilate new ma terial as it once did.
 As old age creeps on. all the func- tions gradually fail. especially those Of digestion. absorption and assimila- tion. and the system being deprived of it's full quota of nutriment, slowly wears out If the nutritive and di- gestive processes of old people could be maintained unimpaired. life could be prolonged almost indefinitely
 There are many old persons in whose stomachs the gastric function is almost entirely suspended. When this trouble occurs. the problem is, how to digest the food and get along without the natural stomach juices. There is but one way to overcome the effects of this condition, and that is to supply arti- ficially to the stomach a powerful di- gestive substance to take the place of the infCeC which il faf fa naturally.
 For this purpose. there is nothing superior to STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS known to medical science, as they supply the deficiency and are such a reliable and thoroughly efficient substitute for the natural gastric juices. that if two or three are taken after each meal, the food will be di- gested in so complete a manner, that the natural digestive fluids will never be missed.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should be used by all old and middle aged per sons, in order tO prevent or cure the dyspepsia of old age. Through their use complete digestion of the food is assured. with a consequent increased nutrition of the body, and staving off of the sensibility and decrepitude of old age.
 This remedy is. however. not only good for the indigestion incidental to advanced life. but is also applicable to the dyspepsia ana stomach troubles of any age. from youth up.
 Secure a package of this famous dys- pepsia remedy from your druggist for soc and if you find that as you get older. your digestion and assimilation becomes weaker. this remedy will as- sist the stomach in the performance of it's functions, so that the general system will not suffer from the delin- quency of the digestive organs.
 A sample package will be sent you if you will forward your name and address to the F. A. Stuart Company, 15O Stuart Building. Marshall. Michi- gan.

BOOK WORM HABITS
 OF SURVEYOR GENERAL
Interesting Thirss Found in Early laws-An Order for a Survey
 North of Grand Canyon.

Every now and then something hap pens that starts Surveyor General In ! gals to digging through the musty records of history and he invariably finds something interesting. This time it was an application of Mexican for a patent on a quarter section of land that had been held ever since the days of tine Gadsden purchase. under a treaty that gave every Mexican who elected to become an American citizen. such holding. It Is the first case of the sort to come before the Arizona land office though they have been numerous in New Mexico.
 But that was only the incident that started the general to reading. In go- ing through an old compilation of land laws made many years ago, he found that the first act of the continental congress respecting the disposal of public lands, offered to every British soldier or Hessian who then elected to become an American citizen and de- sert the British cause. a tract of fifty acres to be selected from the public lands Later there was a similar offer. only of larger tracts. to the officers of the British army who would desert their cause and become Americans. Another item of interest uncovered at the surveyor generals office yester- day is that orders have been received for the survey of an area in township Al north. range west This is sec
 ton bordering on Utah in the center of which is the little town of FredOnia. IL is stated that there are about 100 squatters in the section in question, many of whom have lived there for twenty years or more. without titles to their lands or even surveys. Some portions e it are in high state of cultivation. being irrigation from Ka- nab wash. The meridian line has been established only to the Grand canyon. The general says 1t will be easy enough to splice it. but he is at loss how to carry it across the big ditch unless someone gives him an airship.
