PORTUGUESE COUNT
and SON GUESTS !
in CITY TODAY
ARE PLEASED WITH EVERYTHING
THEY HAVE SEEN AROUND
THE CITY.
BOTH OF COURSE, ARE RoYALIsTs
Count silver is a Large Importer OF
Yellow Pine.-Well Known
To Trade.
BOTH OF COURSE, ARE ROYALIsTs

Hattiesburg is entertaining members
of the nobility today in the person of
Count Silver and his son, of Lisbon,
Portugal, and these gentlemen have
complimented this busy little city by
being pleased with everything they
see.
Count Silver and son arrived Friday
evening from Gulfport, accompanied by
Mr.. F. D. Thayers of the Thayer Lum-
ber Co., large exporters of yellow pine.
Mr.. Thayer entertained his guests and
number of prominent gentlemen of
Hattiesburg with a handsome dining
at the Hotel Hattiesburg. Today the
gentlemen were taken automobile rid
ing over the city by Mr.. Frank Foote,
and were shown the sights. They
were particularly interested in the big
Newman mill, for Count Silver is one
of the wealthiest importers of lumber
in his native land, and is well posted
on lumber. Incidentally he uses forty
million feet of yellow pine from South
Mississippi every twelve months.
In a conversation this morning Count
Silver stated that his family were
royalists, and did not believe the Re-
publicans of Portugal capable Of gov
erning the country. He said continued
disturbances were anticipated, and
that many of the Weather men of the
country had transferred as far as pos
sible their wealth to other countries,
and for this reason Portugal was suf'
fering a financial depression. The Wis
itors will probably return to Gulfport
tonight, but will visit other points in
the lumber belt during their stay here.

Case.

a few hours after the conviction and
sentence of the negro, Robert Powe,
who shot and killed Leslie Stockwell,
he found real specimen of the Black
Hand letter about which so much has
been printed in the New York papers.
The letter is written with a lead
pencil on cheap paper. The incor'

1t reads as follows:
"If you hav appeal for poor boy
poe some thin will happen to you
shore. Lawyer Mabin."
Lawyer viii Fight.
Attorney Maybin, instead of being
frightened, is hot. He will carry the
case up as a matter of professional
pride. He believes the letter came
from some friend of the murdered boy
who will regret his rashness since the
postal inspectors are looking for such
offenders.
Powe will hang March 10 If the
case is not appealed to the supreme
court.

WILL NOT use PLEA OF INSANITY
(By Associated Press.)

Wheeling, Jan. 21.-The plans Of
both prosecution and defense in the
trial of Mrs. Laura Farnsworth Schenk,
charged with poisoning her husband,
have been knocked helter skelter
since the tumultuous scenes of yester-
day and last night.
The wranglings of the attorneys
have become peppery.
There was air expectancy when the
court convened this morning over the
report that Mrs. Schenk would take
the stand. Mrs. Schenk entered alone
several minutes before her attorneys
and appeared in better spirits than at
any time during the trial.
At noon the defense stated it ex-
pected to rest its case at o'clock to-
day and would not resort to the In
sanity plea.
Loving Brother-in-Law.
Mrs. jamie Hedge furnished the first
thrill for the defense. She testified:

automobile and he said, L hope she

turned to get rid of that woman and

On cross-examination, Mr.. Handlan
sought to establish that the witness
was an enemy of Albert Schenk. She
insisted she was on friendly terms
with Albert.
Chronic Poisoning.
DR.. Japson told of having visited
Schenk in hospital and making various
tests. He thought Schenk evidently
had some arsenic in his system. He
admitted that all the symptoms which
he found indicated chronic lead and
arsenical poisoning.

Not Half of Voters
Have Yet Qualified

With but nine business days left
before the closing of the tax books
for the year 1911, over 800 of Forrest
county's voters have failed thus far to
qualify for the August election. Con-
ditions have never been just as they
are this year, for every candidate in
the field has scores of friends, many
of whom do not yet hold receipt for
poll tax.
Feb. l, is the last day upon which
taxes for 1910 can be paid. After that
date there will be the usual penalty.
The poll tax is so and it is the pay
ment of this that counts in the quail
fication of voter. Under the law one
must live within the state two years

hundreds, but 1t is constitutional
law. Then the 80 poll tax cuts out a
percentage.
In 1909 there were between 1900
and 1900 polls in the county. These
names had been added year by year
so that this big total was the result.
This year there is clean slate.
UP to the present about $50 have

there are 800 who have as yet failed
