Special to The Herald:
FRANKLIN, Tenn, July 2S.--Lu-
Their Stages, Of Columbia, was hit by
the 8:16 southbound passenger train
on the Louisville & Nashville Rail-
road this morning and instantly kill
ed. The body was dragged some dis
lance by the train but it is believed
that death was instantaneous.
Young Stages, who was about tWen-
ty-fve years Of age, was a member OF
crew engaged in painting the Lou
isville & Nashville railroad bridge
over Harpeth river at this point.
There were eight or nine in the crew.
all CT them getting to places OF safe
ty except Stages who was struck by
the train just as he left the bridge
and while on the trestle.
Just north of the bridge is quite a
curve in the railroad that obscures
the view Of an approaching train and
the members of the crew did not hear
the train until it was well upon chem.
AS soon as they heard it coming there
was a rush to get off the bridge
Stages was in the rear, the farthest
away from the END of the bridge. Had
he started a moment sooner he would
have been clear Of any danger.
The body, which was badly mangled
and cut up, was taken to the undertake
ing establishment of Wells. 1t will
be sent to Columbia this afternoon on
! No. 5, the Decatur Accommodation.
| Young Stages was a son of police
man Stages, of Columbia, and was an
efficient and well thought of member
! of the painting crew of the Louisville
& Nashville Railroad, much liked by
his associates.
The news of the death of Luther
Stages came a great shock to his lam
lily and friends, who we're appraised by
telegram Of the tragic happening.
City Marshal Morgan was apprlsed
of the accident by The Herald ONCE.

drove to the home of Police Onicer

to break the news to the family, but
upon arrival there found them piung-
ed in grief, the telegraph message
having come but few minutes be-
fore. officer Stages left for Frank
lin on the first train and will have the
body brought here for burial.
Luther Stages had been employed
by the grocery firm of Joe Anderson
for the past three years and stood
thigh with his employer. He was dill
gent in attention to business and won
the esteem of many friends. He had
accepted the railroad position but a
short while ago, this being his third
week in the roads employ.
The body will arrive at $50 and Will
be carried to the Stages home

ENORMOUS PROFITS In MOVING PICTURES
Thomas Edison As INVENTOR Gets About $1,000 Week. Nearly $685.
600 yearRecognzed Producers Get injunction Against n-
authorized Traders Now $4,000 Shows in This coun-
try Which Exhibit Motion Pictures

Edison Manufacturing Company. the
Essaney Film Manufacturing Com
pany, the Gaumont Company, the
kalem Company, George Kleine, the
Lubin Manufacturing Company,
George Melies, Pathe F-eres, the
Selig Polyscope Company and the
Vitagraph Company of America, eight
OF them being American concerns and
the others European interests.
And here is what the business
amounts to in dollars and cents:
Twenty productions are issued each
week in this country. Each is of 900
feet of film, making $4,000 feet, and
eighty OF each are issued, making l.
$4,000 feet. On this production n
royalty Of one-half cent per foot is
paid to MIR. Edison, giving him from
$1,000.
Since the settlement under which
these royalties are paid there has
arisen swarm of people, of whom
Carl Laemmle is one, who have gone
into the business of supplying moving
picture films in which they had to
violate Mr.. Edison's patent rights.
In the course of 1t they have taken
from the concerns already enum-
Grated some of their employees and
actors, paying them preposterously
high prices, and then in some cases
letting them go after having used
their talents and information for a
short period. Their main contention
before the public and the profession
or business, has been that the con-
Germs paying the Edison royalties
were violating the Sherman law and
would sooner or later have to quit.
while really these concerns are using
patents on which they are paying
royalties.
The matter Just decided by Judge
Noyes was an action by the Motion
Picture Patents Company against
Carl Laemmle and the Independent
Moving Picture Company and against
the Pantograph Company. The Judge
has ruled that the validity of the pat
ent in question has already been ad-
Judicated, and he adds, and infringe
ment on the part of the defendant
corporations is conceded He also
says: I am also Of the opinion that
the charge, If established, that the
complainant is itself, or is a member
Of. combination In violation of the
Federal antitrust statute, is not q
defense available in an action for the
infringement of patent and fails to
show defect in the complainant's 8
title. An injunction against the de-
fendant corporations may therefore
issue. The proof of personal in
fringement by the defendant Laemmle
is, however, deemed dinsufficientto war
rant the issuance of an Injunction
against him and 1t is denied. But
this action is without prejudice to the
right of the complainant to renew
his application in case future acts
of personal infringement are dis
closed"

an hour or so. Yet those who make a

iieve that our health depends on get

1t Is quite true that each individual
needs certain hours of it. One woman
can do on seven hours, another would
be exhausted and irritable through
the day on only that amount.

it is necessary for her to sleep until
10 o'clock in the morning. she should
look back on the day and realize how
impeded by work she was because
she began SO late, says the Pittsburg
Times.
Her waking hours are a mad rush
from noon until bedtime. She is so

and compel herself to get up at the
end of that time. To Offset any sleep
iness she should sleep for half an
hour in the afternoon.
The best time is about O'Clock,
and IL the afternoon is a strenuous
time with her, then she can take her
nap before dinner. This will refresh
and give her an appetite.
If too much sleep deadens one, re-
member that too little sleep ages one
as nothing else does but continued ill
health. Trying to get along on six
hours sleep or less takes ten years off
a woman's life in looks, just at the
age she needs most to look young.

New York City.-Since the settle
ment not long ago of the differences
between Thomas A. Edison and the
Biograph people and various indie
pendent moving picture companies,
which resulted in Mr. Edison reaping
profits OF his genius and industry,
settlement which followed Federal
Courts affirmation of Mr.. Edisor's
patent rights. peace had promised to
reign among the manufacturers Of the
pictures for the first time in nearly
fifteen years. But few months ago
number OF new manufacturers
sprang up who, it is charged, boldly
1nfringed upon Mr.. Edison's patents
and set about justifying themselves
on the ground that. as they alleged,
the eleven manufacturers in this
country and Europe who since the
settlement have been paying Mr.. Edi-
son royalties were violating the Sher-
man antitrust law.
1t is declared that these men repre-
sented that they would either break
up the settlement or force Mr. Edison
to open his patents to them. This idea
OF contending that the exercise OF an
inventors patent rights led to viola
tion OF the Sherman law was the only
novel feature in the litigation, which
resulted in a decision by Judge Noyes,
OF the United States Circuit Court.

at glance that with the 100000
or 100000 persons who make up
the daily attendance of the $4,000
moving picture theatres in this coun-
try the question Of the supply of these
films is a matter Of wide interest.
But there is a more intimate interest
for the great bulk OF the American
people who admire Thomas A. Edi-
son. and that part of the story has
never been told. Mr.. Edison has al
ways given his patents to the public
or told the public of his achievements
almost before he had the patents out
and before he had organized any COM
panies to operate under them with
the result that in no single instance,
L believe, has he reaped the undis-

MANNERS2.

Would 1t be too much of a strain
lpon our Government resources to
.ppoint {. commission for the preser-
alton of manners?
There has been such a mission or
;anized for the preservation of our
orests. Forests are undoubtedly
latural resources, and ought to bs
preserved.
But so arc manners. They con-
titute one Of the most powerful as
cts OF great people.
AT present our manners are being
uthlessly cut down and destroyed by
many depredators; and, among these
re some Of our best people.
1t is mistake to suppose that the
highest morality is necessary for the
reservation of a State. What is
ermed honesty is merely a defensive
measure used by communities to pro-
ect them from certain individuals
Who either do not rob enough, or il
hey do rob enough do it in such a
andid way that it deserves to be
:hastised. Every crime known in the
.alendar is openly pTacticed by indi-
'iduals, not only in perfect freedom,
nut under the protection of the State.
Among fashionable women every
orm of the lie is practiced with the
Utmost kill and abandon. In brief,
morality, as such, is openly violated
~ every tremcr, and it has not the
,emotest effect upon what is termed
progress.
But with manners 1t is different
TO be polite and sympathetic and So
icitous when you are robbing your
ieighbo- is a necessity. There are
90 many instances of forgetfulness
this respect. Our manners need
ookinG into. And the thing cannot
,c done too soon.-Life.
