be vacated in six days has caused some
uneasiness among the fish workers.
The authorities, however, are not ap-
prehensive of serious trouble.
The cause of the recent disturbances
on the lake seems to be the outgrowth
of iniunctions secured against Usher
men by J. G. Burdick, proprietor OF
the fish docks, and who also controls
the fishing priviledges in the lake un-
der contract with the West Tennessee
Land Company.
Prior to the murder of Capt. Bankin,
Mr.. Burdick furnished these fishermen
with outfits and entered into an agree
ment with them, under which they
were to dispose of their catches to him,
or pay him royalty
1t is alleged they failed to live up to
the terms of the agreement, and an in
junction was secured by Mr.. Burdick
restraining them from fishing. Then
Capt. Rankin was killed and all fish
ing ceased for time.
After the trouble, the men started
fishing again, but again failed to COM
ply with their contract with Mr.. Bur-
dick, and recently a second injunction
was issued. Following this injunction
the notices were posted on the fish,
docks. Mr.. Burdick was notified to-
day that meeting would be held on
the lake within the next few days and
an emissary of the fishermen would bt
sent to confer with him, looking to an
adjustment of the difficulties.

CAN DRAW CHECK
FOR ANY AMOUNT

Washington, January ll.-Repre-
sentative Finnis ]. Garrett of the 9th
congressional district of Tennessee, who
has had numerous inquiries with ref
erence to the recently widely publish
ed report to the effect that it is unlaw-
full to draw a check for less than one
dollar, made this statement:
t'The report is erroneous, and it is no
ofIense against any law to draw a
check for any amount the drawer de-
sires. The error probably grew out of
the fact that in 1854 congress passed an
act intended to prevent the circulation
of certain checks as money, and pro-
vided that it should be criminal Of
fense to do so. The Sixtieth congress,
at its last session, codified the penal
laws, and, of coulse, the old statute
was carried into the codification. 1t
so happens that the section carrying
the law referred to is the last section of
the criminal code, and it attracted the
attention of newspaper men who mis-
construed it, and the report was pub
lished broadcast that it was a violation
of the law to draw check for less
than one dollar. 1t was not the pur-
pose of the original law to make such
an action criminal, and, ofa certainty,
the codification added nothing to the
old law"

Most johnson City people work every
day in some strained, unnatural position,
bending constantly over u desk, riding
on jolting wagons or cars, doing labori-
GUS housework, lifting, reaching or
pulling, or trying the back in hundred
and one other ways. All these strains
tend to wear, weaken and injure the
kidneys and they fall behind in their
work OF filtering the poisons from the
blood. Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick
kidneys, put new strength in bad backs.

WAS DEPICTED
BY VICTOR HUGO
YEARS AGO
Who Has Shown Himself to Be
Truly a Prophet of the Future
and a Preacher of the Past

"Did it ever occur to you, said M.
w. Connolly, shop and factory inspec-
tor, who has been in the city for some
time, "that the political struggle going
on in England was depicted forty-one
years ago by Victor Hugo, the great
dramatic novelist? In this famous
book lie Homme qui Rire'-'The Man
Who Laughs'-he depicts definitely
the struggle now going on. He has
shown himself to be the Daniel among
the literary prophets. In that book,
finished in Brussels August %, 1858, as
in many Others, he has shown himself
to be truly prophet of the future and
a preacher of the past.
"Lord Clancharlie, a peer of the
realm, was exiled by order of the king
because of his republican convictions.
He went to Switzerland, married and
had one son. He died when the child
was under ten years and in order to
crush the head of the serpent breed,
4, the child was to have been destroyed
t by order of the king The ruffians to
! whom the child was given left him al
most naked on Snow-covered coast,
where after vicisstudes he fell into the
hands of the Comprachios, or child
buyers, who were numerous in those
days, and who prepared dwarfs, hunch-
backs, cripples and deformities for the
market.
"By cutting certain muscles in the
child's face they put upon him hor.
rifle and perpetual grin, which fright
ened children and amused grown folks.
When he grew to manhood he turned
his deformity to advantage by becom-
ing mountebank and was thus thrown
among the people of Vagabondia,
among the number Ursus the philoso-
pher aud his pet wolf. Fate finally
restored him to his rights and he was
acknowledged peer of the realm.
"On the night of his first and last
appearance in the house of lords vote
was taken on a motion or a bill to ap-
propriate e10O,OOO or some other large
sum of money 10 the king for some inn
aginary service. One after another, as
the names of the peers were called, they
arose and said Content which meant
a vote in the affirmative. When the
new Lord Clancharlie, who had been
known all his wandering life as Gwyn-
paine, was reached he arose in the
shadow of friendly pillar and Not
content, and proceeded to give his
reasons. The king was already receiv-
ing vast sums for various purposes,
which was spent in useless expendi-
ture, while the ships rotted in the off
ing for want of cargoes, factories were
closed down, poorliouses were filled
with paupers, pesthouses were crowc-
ed with people driven to crime by hun

OF APPLICANTS
FOR CENSUS JOBS
FILLING IN THE TEST"
Before February 5th the Supervisor
Will Send Each Applicant a
List of Simple Instructions

To quiet any qualms relative to the
"test" of the qualifications of appli-
cants, to be made February 5, the SUI
pervisor has obtained some information
from the census director concerning
the 'test" of Twelfth Census enumera-
tors. 1t has been officially stated that
the 1910 "test will be very similar to
the one in the preceding census and
will consist in requiring applicants to
fill sample schedules from printed mar
ratives concerning census facts. AS
the rural enumerators are to carry both
the population and agricultural sched-
ule, they will be 'tested" with samples
of both, but the city enumerators, who
carry the population schedule alone,
will only be required to prove their
ability by filling a sample of that
schedule.
The ttest population schedule mar
rative in 1900 was, in part, as follows:
1.-THE enumerator of the forty-fifth
4 enumeration district of the ninth SUI
pervisor's district OF the state of Penn
sylvania, in the village of Port Royal,
Londonperry Township, Schuylkill
county, begins his enumeration June /,
1900, at No. 201 Burton street.
"This house is occupied by single
family, consisting of Patrick O'Leary,
his wife, Margaret, and his son, James.
"Patrick came to this country from
Ireland (where he was born of Irish
parents) in May of 1870, when he was
just % years old. Three years after his
arrival he was married to an Irish gir
who had come over from his native
village year before. AS soon as pos
sible he became naturalized. He car
read and write and speak English, anc
owns good house, free from incum
brance, which he has bought from his
earnings as teamster, in which occu
patton he has had steady work during
the past year.
| Margaret, his wife, is also Of Irst
parentage, and was born in January
and is nearly four years younger thar
her husband She has had two child
rem, only one of whom is living. Sh'

"James was born in Harrisburg
February, 1875. He has good com
mon school education, works at any
sort of day labor, and secured nin'
|, months steady work during the pas
year. He is not married.
"In the next house, 2O3 Burton ST.
