TOBACCO TRUST GIVEN A SOP
Vast Sum of $271, 500, 900 Goes to
Manufacturers.

New York.-The startling declaration
that more than 1921, $780, 900 had been
given to the tobacco manufacturers,
largely to the tobocco trust, through the
inadvertence or design of Congress, was
made Tuesday by tobacco experts when
they heard from Washington that the
new tariff will probably fix the tax on
chewing and smoking tobacco at 8 cents
a pound.
This vast sum became the property of
the since the beginning of the
Spanish-American Wor. 1t is an excess
of profit over the extra war tax of 6
cents a pound put on such tobacco to
provide funds with which the country
vas to fight Spain. 1t came to the man.
ufacturers largely because Congress was
Indifferent when it came to striking out
the provisions for decreased weight pack
ages when the war tax was repealed in
April, 1902.
That most of this vast revenue in
crease went to the tobacco trust is def
nitely shown by the stock records of the
American Tobacco Company. Prior to
June, 1908, the common stock of the
trust sold as low as 80. In June of that
year, the very month in which the war
tax was put on, the stock was quoted
at 9sk. 1t is now selling at about 14O.

BEAUTY SEEKS DIVORCE
WANTS $4,000 FOR ALIENAT-
ING HUSBANDS AFFECTIONS
Cruelty and Drunkenness Charged
Claims Husband Turned
Bulldog on Her.

Baltimore, Md.-Mrs. Frank Brown
Jr., who has been called by admirers
'the most beautiful in the
South" Tuesday filed her bill of divorce
against the young son of ex-Gov. Frank
Brown, alleging extreme and sensational
cruelty.
She also filed suit against her father
in-law, claiming $500, 900 damages for al.
legged alienation of her husbands affec.
tions.
Young Mrs. Brown charges that her
husband dragged his vicious bulldog into
her apartment and set the dog upon her,
SO that she had to flee and take refuge
with friends; that he pulled her hair, hit
her, kicked her, cursed her and abused
her before others in the vilest language;
that he threatened her life with a pistol;
that while in company he had thrown
cards, food and other articles in her
face.
Mrs. Brown alleged hat frequently in
the presence of male and female &C.
quaintances her husband tore up and de-
stroyed her clothes and articles of
~adornment, and she was forced to seek
the protection of friends from the vio-
lent abuses of her husband.

CARNIVAL FOR KING COTTON
Idea Developed at Meeting Of Com
mercial Secretaries.

Atlanta, GA King Cotton carnival,
to be held annually in some Southern
city, changing its location each year, was
the slogan sung by the commercial sec.
r~etaries gathering here for the first an.
nual convention of the Southern Com.
mercial Secretaries Association.
The "Three-K" exhibition is to be for
the purpose of exploiting the products
of cotton, it's by-products and the thou
sands of articles into which cotton fiber
enters in some indispensable form.
Every state in the South is represented
at the session.
The discussion will cover the relations
of state and municipal governments and
railroads to the advertising of the re-
sources of Southern municipalities. Good
roads will be studied in concrete form
during a trip by automobile from Allan
Ia to Roswell, Ca, the ancestral home of
Theodore Roosevelt.

Aspire To Be Judges.

Although the term of Judge R. L. Bull.
lard, of the Thirteenth circuit court dis.
trict, who is the first incumbent of that
section of the Mississippi bench, will
not expire until June 1, 1910, there are
aspirants showing up who would not be
averse to succeeding that distinguished
judicial officer. The governor has stated
several times recently that he does not
intend to take up any judgeships which
are to become vacant next year, or af-
ter March, until next year comes. One
circuit judgeship, that in the Ninth dis
trict, now presided over by Hon. John
N. Bush, will expire January 1, 1910,
and one chancellorship will become va
cant at the same time, that of Hon.
j. @. Robbins, of the First district, and
these cases will be attended to during
the coming fall.

Goodyear Road Reaches Jackson.

A new era in the developmental If.
fairs, not only of Jackson, but of quite
a large section of the state, was ushered
in with the incoming of the first pas
senger train on the New Orleans Great
Northern, or Goodyear" line of rail-
way to this terminal Wednesday. 1t
means an opening of a fine section OF
country, hill and river bottom, respec,
lively, to through traffic, a section rich
in agricultural possibilities and in tim
Der, both pine and hardwoods, a double
line down through the lower part of
Kinds, through the entire eastern part
of Copiah, bisecting Lawrence and Ma
rion counties, north and south, and in
the latter dividing territory with the
older established Gulf and Ship Island
Railway line, and opening up the rich
valley of Pearl river to a development
which will prove of inestimable value to
all concerned, the people and the corpo-
ration alike.

JACKSON.
Smith Goes to the Pen.


Charles r. Smith, the slayer of E. A.
Laurent, must 60 to the penitentiary for
life for that crime, the Supreme Court
affirming the verdict of the trial court,
Chief Justice Whitfield dissenting. That
Smith was insane when he killed Laur-
ent, the chief justice strongly argues,
and the evidence in the case shows him
to have been mentally irresponsible for
his actions. All of the incidents con-
nected with the tragedy and with the
trial are graphically recited to shore up
the position taken by the chief justice.
The majority opinion in this case was
delivered by Justice Smith, who was re-
Gently appointed to the bench. In it he
held that the demonstrations complained
of by the defendant could not have in
luenced the jury to the prejudice of the
defendant. That the jury was the judge
of the law and the evidence, and it is
proper to assume that they were gov
erned in reaching a conclusion by the
law and the evidence. Presidents and
authorities were quoted at great length
on the question of uncomfortable impulse
and insane decisions,

Consolidation of Schools.

The consolidation of schools, and espe-
cially rural schools, is coming to be one
of the features of educational life and a
topic of discussion that ~attains more and
more prominence, especially where sew
eral educators may chance to get to-
gether. Some of the county school
boards of the State are either taking &C
tive steps to consolidate their county
schools, or else they are considering the
proposition with a view to definite ac-
ton, and they expect to profit thereby.
1t Is demonstrated to the satisfaction
OF leaders of educational thought that
the multiplicity of small schools, as will
be found in some counties at every point
at which the public roads cross each
other, fail to do the work that they are
designed to accomplish, while the pupils
themselves fail to do the work that is
accomplished in the larger schools.

$40 1000 for Mississippi College.

State Treasurer Edwards has received
the following letter from the United
States Treasury Department: "You are
informed that l have this day certified
to the secretary of the treasury that
the sum of $4,000 is due from the Unit
ed States to the State of Mississippi,
under the acts of Congress approved Au-
gust 80, 1890, and March 4, 1907 (26

provisions for the more complete en-
dowment and maintenance of colleges Of

This money makes a very nice annual
addition to the State appropriation for
the agricultural and mechanical colleges,
and can be used for no other purpose.
