of the parties. If the jurisdiction should fail as to either the binding force and conclusiveness of the judg- ment would fail ana It would become mere nulllty.
 The circuit court shall have iuris- diction in all civil and criminal cases the exclusive Jurisdiction of which may not be vested in some other court provided for by this Constitution. ]" tArt z, Sec. II, Const. of Ark, 1Ss ]
 The correct method of ascertain ing the civil and criminal jurisdiction or the circuit courts is to see what cases or class of cases are confded by the Constitution exclusively to the Jurisdiction of other tribunals, and the great radlum belongs exclusively or concurrently to the circuit courts. 7 (State vs Deyors, 34 Ark, lSS)
 AS the Constitution has not vested , Jurisdiction of this case in any other i tribunal the circuit court is the prop CT tribunal in wRica to bring the case.
 The cause of action arose in Gar land county. The plaintiff and all de- fendants live there. Defendant Wal- Hams, the petitioner herein, was sery-
 
 ed with process in Pulaski county He fsets up in his petition to quash sery- ice that he was elected and duly qualified as the representative of the Thirty first senatorial district and that he was in attendance at the ses- sion of the General Assembly when Eseryed with process in this action and asks that service be quashed as against public policy.
 The members of the General As- sembly shall in all cases except trea- son, felony and breach of surety of the peace be privileged from arrest during their attendance at the ses- Es Esions of their respective houses, and in going to and returning from the same. and for any speech or debate in either house they shall not be ques- toned in any other place" (Art. 8, Sec. IA, Const. eff Ark.J
 This privilege is only from arrest except the three grounds mentioned therein and does not extend to service of civil process. This section of the Constitution was enacted into law and is found in section 291 of Kirby Digest. Section 297 of Kirby's Digest, which Is a part of the act, reads as follows:
 Nothing contained in the provis- ions of this act shall be so construed as to extend to cases of treason, felony or breach of the peace, or to privilege any person from being sery- ed at any time or place herein speei- fled with summons or notice to app pear
 Under the provisions of this sec tion Williams is not exempt from service of the civil process, and for that reason it would be good Section 6061 of Kirby's Digest reads as fol lows:
 Actions for the following causes must be brought in the county where the cause or some part thereof arose; first second an action against the public officer for an act done by him in virtue or under color of his office or for neglect of official duty ]"
 As this acticn falls clearly within the provisions of this section and as no part of it arose in Pulasld county this court has no jurisdiction. It must be brought in the circuit court of Gar land county.
 For the reason stated the cause is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1911-03-17

A legislator in Missouri who was a
friend both of Hoxsey and tombstone
has introduced a bill, inspired by the
tragedy of their deaths, making it an
offense under the head of attempted
suicide" for an aviator to ascend high
er than 1000 feet, and requiring bond
of $4,000 for birdmen, as a guarantee
that they will not violate the law. A
penalty of five years in prison is pro-
vided But it is little likely such a bill
can pass, however much lovers of the
sanctity Of human life may desire it,
says the Baltimore American. Expert
ment is always accompanied with reck-
lessness, and while aviation is in it's
experimental stage, no amount of
threatened punishment will deter ex-
perimenters from using their own lives
as they see fit in its service.

The statistics relating to typhoid
vaccination, in the army, are both in
teresting and encouraging. About one
sixth of the United States army was in
oculated with the typhoid vaccine, and
the returns show that only one person
in 1000 had the disease and none Of
them died, while i'll the unvaccinated
part of the army, one out Of ESQ had
the disease and there were many
deaths These figures are certainly
very significant, and indicate that ty-
phoid fever is going the way Of small
pox, not again to become real scourge
to the country, says the Ohio State
Journal. There will be, however, some
serious speculation about this, as SO
much incubation and vaccination as
the various maladies will require, that
men will undergo considerable change
in their general makeup. If man in
corporates into his vital processes the
various prophylactics intended to ward
off disease, he will become a COM
pound of resisting mediums and occupy
SO unnatural an attitude as to invite
other troubles, for there seems to be
plenty of them waiting to avail them
selves of every opportunity.

BALLINGER RESIGNS
PRESENTS RESIGNATION AND
TAFT APPOINTS w. L. FISHER.
Retiring Official Bases His Request
Entirely Upon His Health and
Receives Warm Praise
From President.

Washington.-Richa A. Ballinger's
resignation as secretary Of the In
terror was accepted by President
Taft and Walter L. Fisher Of Chicago
was Tuesday appointed as his sue
cessor.
Mr. Ballinger rendered his resigna-
ton in letter on January 10, being
on the condition Of his health. The
president replied at once, expressing
his confidence in Secretary Ballinger.
his reluctance to accept his res1gnar
ton, and requested the secretary to
remain in Office until the close of the
session of congress. Immediately on
the adjournment of congress Score
tary Ballinger renewed his request.
Tuesday President Taft, in letter,
formally accepted the resignation and
Mr.. Fisher was appointed as his sue
cessor, his commission being signed
Immediately by the president. Mr..
Fisher will take Office Immediately.
II have had the fullest opportun1-
ty," the president says in his letter
accepting the resignation, ito know
yOu, W huOW yOuI VI oCA
ice to the government and the public,
to know your motives, to know how
you have administered your Office and
to know the motives of those who
have assailed you"
And in the conclusion Of his letter
the president declares that every
fiber of my nature rebels against such
hypocrisy" (referring to the attacks
on Ballinger's character) "and nerves
me to fight such combination and
such methods to the bitter end, lest
success in this instance may form a
demoralizing precedent. But person
al consideration for you and yours
makes me feel that I have no right
to ask for further sacrifice"
The president goes on to declare It
evident that he has been himself the
ultimate object of the attack, and says
that to insist on Mr. Ballinger's re-
naming in Office with the prospects
of further efforts against you, is
selfishly to impose on you more of a
burden than ought to impose"

Enthusiastically 1900 bills h.
been introduced in the legislatur
and more are coming nearly ovo
day. There were about I 6Oo NJ,
introduced in the last session and
is probable that this number will
exceeded long before the present %
sion is over. In the assembly or
1000 bills have been introdpcol
which is more than was introduced
this house during the entire sessioN
of 1909. The senate has not hoN
so many bills as two years ago hi
the number will come near that

bills dealing with appropriation.
There have been lat bills bearing IN

Fish and game have nearly ninetv
bills to their credit, while bills re.

Der nearly the same.
One of the noticeable features n
the great number of labor bills which
have been introduced, no less than
sixty such bills being on the records
of the two houses. The subject of taxi
alton is represented by over seventh
bills. Insurance is also q fruitful
field, and fifty bills have been introl
duced up to the present relating I'd
the regulation of insurance compan-
les or agents. But thirty bills hsvs
been introduced dealing with bank
ing, but among them are two bills
of great Importance, the bill pro-
viding for the guarantee of bank de-
posts and the segregation of the
savings deposits.
Cities and municipalities are as
usual well to the fore with bills re-
lating to them. Over 100 bills of
this kind have been introduced. The
range of subjects in the bills already
introduced includes everything from
advice to congress which comes in
the shape of nearly thirty bills, to
constitutional amendment which
have thirty designs for changes in
that ancient institution to ferret bills,
game and taxes. Legislative log
rolling" and guessing contests in the
newspapers are among the subjects
treated.
With this mass of legislation it is
impossible to tell when the leglSIa-

will come early in May, others claim
it will be we'll along in June before
the legislators shake the dust OF

Is DEAD IN SLIDE
TEN BODIES ARE REMOVED FROM
VIRGINIA, MINI,
MINE.
MEN TRAPPED IN AVALANCHE
Only Four of Track Laying Gang Able
to Escape Huge Mass of Earth
and snow-Many Bodies Torn to
Shreds.

Virginia, Mimi, March 13.-Ten
bodies, crushed almost into an I'M
recognizable mass of flesh and bones,
have been recovered from the Nor
man open-pit mine where an ava
1anche of earth, rock, ice and snow
buried twenty-six miners. The other
sixteen bodies have not been reached,
but the mine officials are bending
every effort to expedite the work Of
rescue. The catastrophe was due, 1t
is said, to the thaws of the last few
days suddenly loosening powders and
earth and forcing the ore body to
slide toward the bottom of the pit.
Only four who were working on the
outer edge, had a chance to run, and
escaped the avalanche. Three OF
these are in a hospital suffering from
probably fatal injuries.
The place that was an open pit be-
fore the slide is a choked area of rock
and ore and earth, with here and
there parts of body in sight. An
army of men with shovels is working
desperately to recover the bodies. The
work is tedious and pursued under ex-
IRENE difficulties.
1t will be days before the bodies
can be recovered and all the parts OF
many probably never will be az
sembled. The mass of rock and earth
ground many of them into shreds.
The name Of only one victim could
be learned, Paul Paulson, widower
who leaves seven children. His wife
died a month ago.
The miners who were taking up one
of the two tracks in the pit in order
to permit the great steam shovel to
work in another section Of the mine
were for the most part bent over with
bars and claws when the avalanche
swept them into eternity. There was
no chance for anybody to move foot
Chief of Police Ellis Walsh was mott
fed Of the accident by one OF the
mine engineers. He fastened to the
mine, which is about three-quarters OF
a mile outside the city limits, but
found that the forces of the Oliver
Mining company were amply able to
take care of the situation from the
standpoint OF preventing undue con,
fusion. The women and children who
had lost their husbands and fathers
talked in their native tongue to the
men who were shoveling.
The Norman employs about 1000
men when running to capacity. Just
at this time, however, several hun.
dred are employed, working in night
and day shifts.

LUXURY OF RARBERING.

There Ia reason In this barber1ne
habit, although 1t Is one OF luxury.
Many may ask why go to the shop and
perhaps waste ten or twenty minutes
tor ones turn and then pay ten or f1f-
teen cents, and perhaps tip, for
something one may have at home at
comparatively no expense OF money or
time? The explanation is easy, says
the Cincinnati Enquirer. At the shop
men wait in the habit Of years, for
particular chair, and while waiting dis
cuss the latest news or gossip, There
is restfulness in the waiting. Ihen
come the luxury of the chair at a Sc
lected angle, the kindly glance and nod
from the favorite barber, the soothing
admixture of comment upon the
weather and events with the lather
and the dextrous application of the
keen edge, to the end Of a close
shave" then the hot towel and posi-
bly, the massage. Yes, this is habit
of luxury, but one justified by the
ages, from as far back as the days or
the prophet Ezekiel down through the
centuries in which The Arabian
Nights" celebrated the function to the
times Of Edward " Of England, who
in 1851 incorporated the Company OF
Barber-Surgeons; to the days when au-
thor, poet and musical composer rec
Ognized the humorous features OF the
trade that once was profession IN
that it united with it that of the CHR
urgeon. The habit of the barber chair
is as old as some of the hills.
