LYNCHlNG CASE DECIDED.
Claimed Lyncher Violated Four
teenth Amendment.

Washington.-The case of the United
States VS.. Robert Powell, involving the
question whether the fourteenth amend.
ment can be invoked in the United
States courts to protect negroes against
lynching, was decided by the Supreme
Court of the United States Monday in
favor of Powell on a writ of error bring
ing the case from the United States
Circuit Court for the Northern District
Of Alabama.
Powell is under indictment ON the
charge of assisting a mob in the hanging
of a negro named Horace Naples at
Huntsville, the specific charge being that
as a member of the lynching party Pow
ell had deprived Naples of the right
to a trial by due process of law. The
court held that the fourteenth amend.
ment was not applicable to the case and
declared that it could not be invoked
unless the injustice complained of was
inflicted by the State or its authorities.

Soldiers Subject to Road Tax.

Col. w. Calvin Wells, ju~dge-advocate-

Guard. has addressed a communication
to Attorney-General Stirling, in which
he asks for official information on the
oft-recurring question whether or not
the members of the guard living outside

laws of the State must prevail where
there is a conflict between them and the
laws and rules of the National Guard,
and that undoubtedly the members are
subject to the communication road tax,
street tax or road duty.
IL must concur in the opinion rem

Guard are not exempt from road duty

CHICAGO GONE TO THE DEVIL
Windy City Needs a Widespread
Religious Awakening.

Chicago.-Declaring that the morals of
Chicago are at a low ebb, the Rev. DON
aid McLaurin, pastor of the Second Bap-
fist Church, made a plea before the
members of the congregational minis
ters' meeting for a widespread evangelis-
tic campaign in this city.
After declaring that the people of Chi
cago spend $4,000, 900 a year for strong
drink, the minister declared that inn
moral practices are entering the public
schools. Most of the public schools in
this city are honey-combed with rotten
ness. Immoral practices are prevalent
among the children in the schools. A
widespread revival is necessary. There
needs to be protection for the school chill
dren," the minister said. "Our churches
are not alive to the needs of the time
and our preachers are not alive to our
mission"

S29, 600, 900 FOR THE NAVY
Two ~Battleships Are Recommended
Instead of Four.

4uSCSdu Va EOuI.
Washington, Jan. 11.-An increase of
the navy to the extent of S29, 600, 600
was agreed on today by the house COM
mittee on naval affairs.
The following naval programme for
appropriations at this session was adopt
ed by the committees:
Two battleships of 10000 tons dis
placement, $4,000, 900; five torpedo boat
destroyers, $4,OOO,O00; three golfers,
S%3,60o,0O0; four submarines, So, oOO,OOO;
one %subsurface boat, S4O0, OOO.
Two battleships are recommended by
the committee instead of four as esti-
mated for by the navy department.
The committee cut down the estimates
submitted by the navy department so
that instead of an authorization for an
of the navy by an %appropria-
ton of 63,25O,OOO, it will be increased
only $29 1000, 900, or $3O,OO0,OOO.

Improve State Guards.

Should the plans discussed and tenta-
lively agreed upon by the officers of
the National Guard be carried to fulfill
ment, it will mean a vast improvement
in the rank and file of the States citi-
zen-soldiery. 1t is intended to inaugur-
ate a system of physical examinations
of officers and enlisted men, and this
work will be under the direction of Col.
Chas. LeBaron, surgeon-general. Com
mencing March IS, inspections will be
started, and it is hoped that Maj. Dam
forth, of the Seventeenth infantry, will
be detailed for this s%urvice, as formal
request is to be made. Col. J. B. Nc
Farland and the regimental officers will
accompany the inspection officer in Or
der that the former may be themselves
instructed and more thoroughly posted
thereby.
1t was decided to accept the Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College band
part of the guard and to arrange for
the general State encampment, from
July ~ to "a, and to ask that either
the whole or a battalion of the Seven
teenth infantry be detailed for service
that occasion.

MYSTERY ENDS IN SUICIDE
Minister Who Murdered Carpenter,
Cuts His Own Throat.

Carthage, IlL-Rev. John H. Carmich-
ael, who, in the little Methodist church
at Rattle Run, Mich, killed Gideon
Browning, the village carpenter, and then
burned his body in the stove, committed
suicide here Monday by cutting his
throat with a pocket knife.
In a long letter found in his suit case,
Carmichael told in detail the story of the
killing of Browning, how he had fallen a
victim to Browning's hypnotic power and
meeting him in the church Tuesday night,
was compelled to obey every command;
how finally, when Browning attacked
him with knives, Carmichael defended
himself with a Ratchet. After killing
his victim with the Ratchet, he said, the
red-hot stove in the church suggested
itself as the best method of disposing of
the body. Before putting the body in
the stove, however, he exchanged some
of the dead mans clothing for his own,
which had become despatched with
blood.

States Model Farm.

Gov. Noel is very much pleased with
the things he saw on the Belmont State
farm at Tchula. He says it is the best
kept of all the four farms occupied and
worked by Mississippi convicts. Al
though by no means the largest of the
four, it is the oldest, having been pur-
chased in the early nineties, when very
few of the zoos acres were cultivable.
Now 1,40O acres are in cultivation, and
this year 700 bales of cotton nave been
produced on 1000 acres and $500 bush
els of corn and a lot of other things on
the remainder. Among the other things,

produced on four acres. the exact yield
per acre being placed at $50 gallons.

One Million Needed.

1t will require practically a million
dollars in tax payments and other re-
ceipts in the State treasury before the
end of the present month if the exist
ing deficit is to be wiped out as planned,
the State officials and employees paid,
current expenses met and the $S33,333.34
in school warrants taken up promptly
when presented for payment. Reports
from all parts of the State indicate that
taxpaying is unusually slow for the
time of year, as most of the State
taxes are usually paid during the month
of January. If not paid by February 1
the taxpayer is DISTINGUISHED for the
next two years, hence the rush to the
sherifrs office during this month.

Supplies for Convicts.

The penitentiary sergeants on the four
big State farms are preparing their an
nual acquisitions for supplies for the
year 1909, which are to be filed with
the Board of Trustees in time for pur-
chases to be made at the February
meeting. Requisi rs for many of the
articles necessar o be bought for the
farms come in .C convenient intervals
during the year, and only a few things
are received on standing orders. For
instance, a full car. load of bacon is
shipped to the Sunfower farm alone
every month.
Many hogs and cattle are butchered
on the farms every month, and it takes
quite a number of them to go around
among the more than 1900 prisoners.
Secretary Yerger states that the &C
counts already allowed by the Board,
together with those still pending for
December purchases, will just about con
sumo the s25o,0oo appropriation made
by the legislature for the 1908 support
fund, and that there will be very little
money to revert to the treasury.

tigers for the past several months, with

landlords who rent property for blind

those imposed upon the keepers
