Magnolia Citizens Enjoined.

Chancellor G. G.. Lyell has granted an
injunction restraining five citizens OF
Magnolia from prosecuting damage suits
against the Illinois Central on account of
the failure of the company to stop it's
limited passenger trains at that point.
In the case of Reid VS.. Illinois Central
decided by the Supreme Court a short
time since, it was held that. the plaintiff
had no right to recover damages on ac-
count of the refusal of a conductor of
the company to stop at Magnolia and
allow Reid to disembark; that Magnolia
was not a scheduled stop for the train in
question, the United States Supreme
Court having decided hat the order of
the Mississippi railroad commission re-
the company to stop limited
trains at that point was an interference
with interstate commerce..

The ninety-second anniversary of the
elevation of Mississippi from the terri

was simple but sufficient, the main fea-

stage of greatness and progress in the

address of Prof. Walker was read from
manuscript by DIR. Dobyns and ex-
pressed in sign language by it's com
poser, and was heard with interest by
the audience, as he related the historic
events of the past in a way that was
new and yet in accord with recorded his
tory of the days that are past.

Spelling Bee Big Feature.

There seems to be a great deal of in
terest even outside State educational
circles in what is expected to be the
ers' Association convention at Natchez,
to be held at the end of April and early
in May, namely, the spelling contest.
This is to be a bona fide contest, for the
committee in charge of the arrangements
are sound, able, earnest educators, who
are taking an interest in developing a
keen, wholesome competition in order to
encourage and promote an advance in
photography. The following information
relative to the contest will be of general
interest: The contest will be confined
to words taken from the adopted speller
for common schools of the State Hunts
Progressive Speller, Parts / and q. If
it should happen to be a tie between in
dividuals or teams, there will be a final,
contest with words taken from Web
ster's Primary Dictionary. Each county
or school which is to be represented by
q team must notify the chairman of the
committee, Prof. H. P. Todd, not later
than April 20. The names of the con-
~testants need not be sent at that time,
but. these must be filed with the chair
not later than s P. M, April 90.

Sorsby Gets Special Venire.

Contrary to expectation and to notice
given on Thursday, the attorneys repre-
senting Will Sorsby, charged with the
murder of Charles Fitzgerald, postoffice
inspector, did not argue the motion of
District Attorney Mcneil for a special
venire from which to select a jury. Hon.
c. M. Williamson states that they had
decided not to argue the matter, and in
the absence of opposition the court will
make the order prayed for by the State.

Concealers Nav Be Indicted.

Subpoenas nave been issued for wit
nesses to appear before the Kinds Coun-
ty grand jury and give testimony rela-
tive to the concealment of Will Sorsby,
slayer of Postoffice Inspector Charles
Fitzgerald. Sorsby, it will be recalled,
was captured in the home of a citizen
of Clinton, several months after the
tragedy occurred, and all the evidence
developed at that time tended to show
that he had been harbored in the house
for a period of several weeks. Judge
Potter, in a strong charge to the grand
jury, called attention to the fact that,
Sorsby had been harbored at Clinton, in
structed the jury that the parties who
cennived at his concealment were guilty
of being accessories after the fact, and
urged that indictments. he brought
against them, regardless Of their social
prominence.

There is no longer any further doubt

The rails, ties and other materials are

grounds and are taking other steps to

Unusual Situation.

Unusual Situation.
The first official document coming up
during the absence in. Washington of
Gov. Noel, and requiring Ais official sig.
nature, developed a rather nppsual sit
uation. Lieut.-Gov. Manship is out of
the State on a lecture tour in the East
ern States. The line of succession would
make Hon. John J.. Hebron, of Green
vile, the acting governor by reason of
his office as president pro tenn of the
senate. Mr. Hebron, however. is spend
ing a month in and around Chicago. Col.
Street, as speaker of the house of rep.
resenfatives, falls heir to the office, and
if he is at home, will nave an opportu-
nifty to sign the document. In the event
of Col. Streets absence from the State,
if the document was of such a character
as to justify it, Secretary Power would
be authorized and required to call the
senate together and select a governor.

Penitentiary Population Increae.

Unless Governor Noel does a good deal
OF p%ardoning during the next few weeks,
or some unforeseen incident occurs which
will take from the State p~cnitentiary
many more conyiets than are scheduled
to go out, there will inevitably be an
even larger increase in the prison pop
ulation of Mississippi than ever before,
although there has been but one or two
months during the past two years when
there was not an increase shown by the
monthly report. Although sixty-three
new prisoners were received last month,
only sixteen were discharged by reason
of their terms having expired. The
scheduled discharges for March are six.
teen in number, and twelve are sched-
uled for April. Since March and April
are among the busiest months of the
year, with the Circuit Courts, it is easy
to imagine that the lists of convictions
during these two months will be at least
as great as usual, and to suppose that
they will be larger. While there is
ample land in the States four big
farms, aggregating more than 10000
acres, to take care of all the prisoners
that are likely to come for several
years, and at a profit in proportion to
the number Of men imprisoned, it now
appears certain that larger appropria-
lions than ever will have to be made
for the penitentiary support fund, there
being now on hand 200 prisoners
more than at the time the appropriation
made, in 1908, for that purpose,
based upon a population of approx
.ately 1900, while now there are 1860.

else of any particular value so persis-
tently to entice such expert and ac-
complished burglars back to his fiat.
What else had they required of him?
His peace of mind was nothing that
they could turn into cash, and they
seemed to have reaved him of moth
ing else.
But they had that; .unquestionably
they had taken that.
And still the riddle haunted HIM:
Why had she come back that night?
And, whatever her reason. had she
come in Anisty's company or alone?
One minute it seemed patent beyond
dispute that the girl and the great
plunderer were hand -in-glove; the next
minute Maitland was positively assured
that their recent meeting had been al
together an accident. From what he
had heard over the telephone he had
believed them to be quarreling, al
though at the time he had assigned to
O'Hagan the masculine side to the dis
pute. But certainly there must have
arisen some difference of opinion be-
tween Anisty and the girl to hay'
drawn from her that frantic negative
Maitland had heard, to have been re-
sponsible for the overturning of the
chair-an accident that seemed to ar
que something in the nature of a physi-
cal struggle; the chair itself still lay
upon its side, mute witness to a hasty
and careless movement on somebody's
part.
But it was all inexplicable. Eventually
Maitland shook his head, to signify
that he gave it up. There was but one
thing tt do-to put it out of mind. He
would read a bit, compose himself, go
to bed.
Preliminary to doing so he would take
steps to insure the fiat against fur
ther burglarizing. for that night at
least The draught moving through
the hall stirred the portiere and re-
minded him that the window in the
trunk Dor was still open, an invita-
ton to any e~nterprising sneak-thief or
second STORY man. SO Maitland went
to close and make 1t fast.
AS he shut down the window-sash,
erd cIamped the catch he trod on
something soft and yielding. Wonder
ing, he stopped and picked it up, and
carried it back to the light. 1t proved
to be the girls handbag.
Now admitted Maitland in a tone
of absolute candor, II am damned. How
the dickens did this thing get there
anywa ? What was she doing in my
tfunk-closet?'
Was it possible that she had followed
Anisty out of the fiat by that route? A
very much r,ystified Young man sat
himself down again in front of his
desk, and turned the bag over n over
in his hands, keenly scrutinizing every
inch Of it. and whistling softly,
That year the fashion in purses was
for capacious receptacles Of grained
leather. nearly SQUARE In shape, and
furnished with a chaing handle. This
