JACK JOHNSON, PUGILIST,
HAS NO PLACE TO SLEEP

AT 3 o'clock this morning Jack Johnson.
heavyweight champion of the world, was
at the police station begging the aid of

he presented himsel fat the Orpheum no
tel last night after having been feted by
Salt Lake cOlordom. and haughtily asked
for the key to the rooms which had been
engaged for him in advance. He was pc
litely informed that the house did not ca
ter to cOlOred trade and was ordered from
the place.
After much argument and many threat
the big champion left the hotel and went
to the police station. The police refused
To -ake hand IN the matter.

Cure for Headache.

One Of the very best remedies for q
sick or nervous headache was suggest
ed to me recently BY a Finnish serv-
ant girl. She took raw potatoes with
out either washing or pairing and cut
them into thick slices. These were
laid close together on the forehead and
temples and kept In place by covering
with 4 large handkerchief folded cor
nerwise and tied in the back.
In short time the pain disappeared.
As the pieces Of potato get hot replace
with cold fresh ones.
They give oil the coolness Of Ice
without the incidental dampness, and
there is not the burning sensation Ice
often causes.

SENSATIONAL TRIAL AT COLUMBUS.
Charles A. Smith Committed Without
Benefit Of Bail.

Columbus, Miss, Jan. 20.-The
ghost which has lurked behind the
shadows of the killing Of Eugene
A. Laurent since the tragedy at
Artesia, Miss, last Friday after
noon, came out in uncovered naked
ness this afternoon, and more than
one sensation was furnished a
crowded courtroom. The greatest
sensation was when K. I. McCon-
nico, representative of the prosecu-
tion, who was personal friend of
Laurent, who comes from Nash
vile, Tenn, arose from his seat
just after Charles R. Smith, the
defendant, had been on the witness
stand for an hour, and had Justice
Matthews issue an instanter for
Miss EsteIle Smith. An officer was
dispatched to the depot, but he soon
returned with the information that
she had left ON the train for Arte-
sia. Telephone communication
with Artesia to some party there
by deputy sheriff informed Miss
Smith, through a third party, that
she was wanted by the prosecution
in Columbus. She stayed aboard
the same train and returned to the
courtroom after the trains arrival.
McConnico began his questions by
asking how long she had known
Laurent; how many times she had
ever seen him; where, if ever, she
had see him except at her home or
a friends home, and to every
question she replied: Il refuse to
answer. - Only once did she vary
the answer, and that was after Nc
Connico pictured Laurent's home in
Nashville, where the mother and
sister were sobbing over his death.
Miss Smith broke into tears, and
pointed to her father, saying:
He is all | have in this world. l
have a mother in the cemetery, who
has been there twenty-six years.
He is all | have. l am all he has.
| live for him, and he lives for
me-" She was excused from the
stand. Just before leaving the
courtroom she embraced her father
and kissed him twice. When Smith
took the stand he began his testi-
mony with these words: Il killed
E. A. Laurent for debauching my
daughter, which I know he did,"
Smith was committed to Jail with
out bond.

President J. {. Hardy.

President J. C. Hardy, of the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col
lege, who. was brought here for
treatment and surgical operation
for the removal of the accumuIa-
tion of gall-stones from the blad-
der, has undergone a successful
operation and stood the ordeal very
we'll, according to those who are in
touch with the case. Upbards of
fifty of these particles were remov-
ed, and the process of recovery is
dependent altogether upon the ply
sical condition of the patient,
which has been considerably weak
ened from long and patiently-b borne
suffering. Despite his suffering
and the serious nature of his all
ment, President Hardy has stuck
relentlessly to his duties, which, of
course, has aggravated his general
condition, and will, it is expected,
retard the process of recovery,
though the seat of his trouble has
been removed, and his physicians
and friends look forward with con-
fidence to his ultimate recovery

VETO OVERRIDDEN.
STATE PROHIBITION BILL BECOMES
THE LAW IN OLD TENNESSEE.
The Prohibition Forces Stand Firm
Against the Governors Veto Mes.
sage in Both Houses.

Nashville, Tenn, Jan. 20.-Over
the veto of Governor Patterson,
both Houses of the Legislature
passed Senate Bill No. /, which
prohibits the sale of intoxicating
liquor within four miles of school
house in Tennessee, and is in effect
a Statewide prohibition act. 1t is
effective July 1, 1909. The vote in
the Senate which came at 2:45 p.
M, stood 20 to 13, the same as on
original passage. The house acted
at $40 p. M, the vote standing 81
to 36, the original vote there having
been 62 to 81. In each House the
passage was effected through a
combination of Republican and
Statewide Democratic strength.
The galleries were packed in
both Houses, and the debates fol-
lowing the reading of the Govern
or's message were bitter. Espec-
tally was the latter true of the
Senate, where Mr.. Lane of Will
Hanson was particularly stringent
in his attack on the Governor.
The action of the legislature to-
day practically brings to close one
of the bitterest and most sensation
al political fights in the history of
Tennessee. Statewide prohibi-
tion was the main issue in the re-
cent contest between Governor Pat
terson and the late E. w. Carmack
for the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination, and though Governor
Patterson, who advocated local
option, won the nomination, the
Legislature elected in November
last at the same time he was, has,
after stormy times, acted in oppo-
sition to his recommendations.
This came, however, with the aid
Of Republicans, who gave the bill
22 votes in the House and in the
Senate. Carmack, after his defeat
for the nomination, continued the
fight for prohibition through the
columns of the Nashville Tennes-
seean, of which he was editor, and
to the bitterness Of this campaign
is directly attributable the street
duel in which the former Senator
lost his life November 9 last. A
coincidence in this is the beginning
today of the trial of Col. Cooper,
Robin j. Cooper and John J. Sharp,
charged with Carmack's S murder.
The bill to prohibit the manufac-
ture of intoxicating liquor in Ten
nessee after January l, 1909, has
passed the Senate, and will proba-
bly, pass the House tomorrow morn
ing. The Governor, it is conceded,
will veto this bill, and it is equally
certain that it will pass over his
veto by practically the same vote
given the bill passed today.

Action Against Labor Agents.

Gloster, Miss, Jan. 16. For
several weeks labor agents have
been operating at Gloster, con-
tracing with negro tenants and
moving them to the Mississippi
Delta. Farmers have borne this
with patience until now, when they
feel that forbearance has ceased to
be a virtue, and they met today
and unanimously passed a resolu-
tion tending to quiet the labor of
the town and warning all labor
agents, local as well as foreign, to
abandon their practice Of moving
negroes from this section. A COM
mittee of nine prominent farmers
were appointed at the meeting to
look after such labor agents as
would not live up to the resolution.
but no trouble is feared, as it is
thought that all of the labor agents
will stop inducing the negroes to
leave. Unless they do they will be
requested to leave themselves.

In reply to an 1quiry from the
attorney of the board of supervisors
of Lincoln county, Attorney Gener-
al Stirling gives it as his opinion
that boards of supervisors are not
authorized to pay rewards for the
capture and return Of convicts that
escape from county contractors or
county farms, the contractor being
held responsible for the prisoners
in his charge, and is the proper
party to pay such rewards. Sheriffs
and other officers are authorized
to pursue and capture such escapes,
but there is no provision for a re-
ward in any such cases.

Archie Varnado, who shot and
seriously wounded Ex-Mayor Spears
of Osyka, during the Christmas
holidays, was here Saturday. Sher-
iff Holmes placed him under a
$5 900 bond to await the action of
the grand jury. The bond was
signed by Varnado, himself, with
N. D. Stringer and ]. w. Simmons
as sureties. Magnolia Gazette.
1t causes kind of lonesome
feeling" when any considerable
time passes in Pike. county without
a Varnado figuring in some shoot
ing or cutting scrape. Is it be-
cause people down there by this
name are extraordinarily scrap
py" or because they are SO much
more numerous than people Of any
other name.

A Raise of Salaries.

Washington, Jan. 19.-The salary
Of the President of the United
States was today fixed at 100000
per annum, so far as the Senate
could fix it, and salaries, of the
Vice President and the Speaker of
the House of Representatives $15,-
600 each.
The salary of the Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court of the Unit
ed States was increased from $13,-
600 to $4,000 per annum, and
those of associate justices from
SIP, 500 to $4,000. These changes
were made as amendments to the
legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill, after an extend
ed debate.
Amendments allowing $4,000 to
the Vice President and the Speaker
Of the House for carriages were
stricken from the bill.
