w. A. Massey and G. l.. Harwood, OF
Reno, appeared for defendants. In an
swer to the allegations in the CON-
plant of plaintiff regarding the man
ner in which mining operations had
been conducted on the property, coun-
sci for defendants submitted afidavits
showing that the mine had been hand
led in scientific and economical man
ner Counsel for plaintiffs asked for
time In which to acquaint themselves
of the purport of the affidavits, and the
case was accordingly continued until
1880 p. m.
At the opening of court this after
noon plaintiffs entered demurrer to
defendants answer, and the entire af
ternoon was taken up in the arguments
of opposing counsel.

for next week, when a new jury list
will be placed in the box and a new
panel drawn The jury summoned for
Tuesday will be excused, but it is
thought the new jury can be subpoena
ed and ready to hear cases by the first

siding. Present, J. Lozano, court
reporter; Sheriff s. G. Lamb and

Trousdale, clerk, and all the attorneys
comprising the Humboldt county bar,

and Blume were absent An order was
entered excusing Juror Blume for the
day.
All prisoners whose cases were to
come before the grand jury were pres
ent in court, with the exception of J.
l.. McCulloch. District Attorney
Ducker moved that his bond be de-
clared forfeited, but upon the showing
of Bonnifeld & Brandon, his counsel,
the hearing of the case by the grand
jury was postponed for "a hours.
S. Takamura, charged with obtaining
goods by false pretense from the Col
conda store of E Reinhart & Co., chal-
lenged the right of E. Reinhart to act
as a grand juror in his case, and ac-
cordingly Mr.. Reinhart was excused
from taking part in this particular pro-
ceeding.
Frank DePretto challenged Juror
Tobin, on the ground that he would be
a witness against him, and Mr.. Tobin
was excused from considering the case.
The Court appointed counsel for inn
pecunious defendants as follows:

Broa, murder.
IL. Warren for James Mitchell, bur.
glary.
L. A. Brandon for Frank DePretto,
charged with forgery.
l.. G. Wilson for the Indian, Pete
Luckley, accused of arson.
Each defendant, in turn, either by
himself or counsel, waived objection to
the grand jury being composed of ff-
teen instead of seventeen members an /
expressed themselves as satisfied to
have their cases considered by that
body.
After being charged by Judge Orr,
the grand jury retired to consider the
cases brought before them.
Yesterday Judge Orr was engaged in
chambers for the greater part of the
day.
At 2 O'Clock the grand jury was
called into court and given special in
struction, the nature of which was not
made public.

THE PROPOSED LAKE WAX YES
Sci.

The number Of war vessels to be
maintained on the Great Lakes is q
problem which may become acute at
any time and require the serious CON
sideration Of this government. It
is one Of the matters which is likely
to confront Secretary Knox and re-
quire some clever handling if he re-
mains at the head OF the Department
of State for any considerable length
OF time.
Indications are becoming strong
chat Canada and Great Britain are
concerned over the situation. An
understanding known as the Rush
Bagot convention exists between the
United States and Great Britain
limiting the number OF war vessels
On the Great Lakes 1t has existed
since 1917 and provides tina; no YES
sci is to exceed 100 tons, tina. the
armament OF each is not TO exceed
one eighteen pound gun, and that
each country have not more than two
such vessels on the upper lakes, one
on Ontario and one on Lake Cham
plain.
Canada now has bu; one war YES
sci on all the Great Lakes, and this
is said to be unarmed, while the
United States has six armed vessels
and three disarmed. Altogethe~
these have more than fifty guns. with
Il force of about 1000 men. So far
as conditions are today, I'm case of a
sudden row the United States could
absolutely dominate the Great Lakes.
Il is said the Increase OF American
vessels is due to the shipbuildlnq
activity on the lakes, and the desire
OF the companies to have part I'm
In naval construction. Back I'm
1890, the two nations were near an
agreement by which unequipped war
vessels built in American yards on
the lakes were to be allowed to go
through the Canadian canals. and
thus get 10 sea This fell through

Kodol supplies the same digestive
juices that are found in healthy
stomach. Being a liquid, it starts
digestion at once.
Kodol not only digests your food,
but helps you enjoy every mouthful
you eat.
You need sufficient amount of
good, wholesome food to maintain
strength and health.
But, this food must be digested
thoroughly, otherwise the pains of
indigestion and dyspepsia are the
result.
When your stomach cannot do its
work properly, take something to
help your stomach. Kodol is the
only thing that will give the stom-
ach complete rest.
Why? Because Kodol does the
same work as strong stomach, and
does it in natural way.

The storm that wiped Dennis
from the map passed through our
little town. The wirAfew with
tremendous velocity anf Was ac-
companied by the hardest down
pour we have had since 1902. 1t
seemed at one time that we were
to suffer the same fate that befell
Dennis. Mr. B F Puckett's house
was practically destroyed. His
barn also was demolished and his
corn and hay scattered over a
large area. Fragments of boxes,
billheads, and wrapping paper
belonging to Mr. L r Davis were
picked up here having been blown
a distance of 7 miles. A great
deal of damage was done to jfruit
trees, ovtbuildings, farm and gar
den fences. The wind travelled in
a northeasterly direction.
Mr. Glib Howell of Prentiss coun-
ty, was in our midst few days
ago and carried out nice herd
of cattle.
Mr. John Wallis. of this place,
lost a good mule a few nights
since. Young Wallis was return
ing from an entertainment when
the mule fell and broke his neck.
Mr. VIM Nunlev, of near Iuka,
was pleasant caller at this place
few days ago. He and Hubert
Durham, two old war veterans
met for the first time since the
conflict was over. 1t was inter
esting to hear those two good old
men recount their hardships and
privations and fight the battles
over.
Judging from the amount Of
drunkenness there is in the coun-
try the booze vender is plying his
trade successfully. Without a
concerted effort on the part of the
men who oppose it there can moth
ing be done to suppress this great
evil. A. H. B.

ED. VIDETTE:
Health of this community
some better at present.
Weather fine at this time but
there have been two or more of
the heaviest rains fell in the past
week or so that perhaps ever fell
in this country. Even small
branches were at swimming tide
and all rolling lands are consider
ably damaged.
Several of our citizens are at
tending circuit court at Fulton
this week. We are afraid some
of the boys will return by the
shortest route totin" bride and
saddle as the horse traders at Full
ton know all their routes.
Well, Mr. Editor, the stocklaw
election is over and we now have
stocklaw. Don't know whether
it will please the majority or not
but as to the proverbs of Solomon
wise, who perhaps, is a relative of
Josh wise who is quoted as saying
that a goose could cut the grass
closer the ground than anything
on earth, when in fact a gander
could shear the grass as close as
goose. We are not expecting the
stocklaw to build up our county
but we will just say to Brother
Solomon that the farmers of this
part of Tishomingo county have
long since gone out of the razor
back hog business. Neither do
they burden their good wives with
the milking of those Il gallon
gushers that he spoke about. Now
in short we believe that stocklaw
will to some extent improve the
stock in this county, but when we
begin to imagine in what part of
Tishoningo county brother Solo
mon found the farmers in such
deplorable condition of which he
recited we are made to believe
that he had become entangled Ell
route to Tishomingo and was
travelling in the opposite direction
and behold he was in his own (Col-
bert) county when he beheld such
herds of swine, cows, sheep and
goats that caused him to pen the
latter part of his backwoods phi
losophy.
We are sorry indeed to learn
that the cyclone did 50 much
damage to the good people Of Den
mis-.
We learn that Prof J v Crabb
declined the idea of having a con
cert at the close of Patterson
school.
We are glad that the Home Tel
ephone Co has its system extend
ed to Iuka via Belmont where it
gets service over the Tishomingo
Banki ng Cos line via Dennis.

TEN YEARS OF SUFFERING
FROM TORPID LIVER
Prominent Alabama Minister is
Permanently Cured by the
Use Of Prickly Ash Bitters.

A complete cure after ten years
of suffering from torpid liver and
indigestion brings words of praise
for Prick1y Ash Bitters from the
Rev. John w. Thomas, pastor of
Shiloh M. E. Church, Brewton,
Ala.
Rev. Thomas says: "Every spring
and summer 1 would be so worn out /
could do nothing. 1 would be taken down
with violent bilious attacks and suffered
untold misery. Several doctors treated
me unsuccessfu1ly and had begun to
consider my case hopeless"
'One day, thank God, saw an adver-
tisement of Prickly Ash Bitters and
thought would give it trial. After
thorough course of treatment with this
great remedy I am glad to say it has
made different man of me. / now feel
well and strong, my digestion is good, 1
can eat anything at any time without
that awful distress I used to have. I,
consider it My duty to recommend
Prickly Ash Bitters to everyone whom
think needs it, and know everyone
who has used it on my recommendation
has been greatly benefited"
Prickly Ash Bitters is a remedy
with splendid record of cures of
all forms of kidney and liver trou-
bles. 1t has an agreeable cathartic
action that removes constipation
and restores regular bowel move
ments. 1t purifes the blood,
strengthens digestion, promotes
good appetite, sound sleep and
cheerful spirits.
