JAPANESE ANARCHISTS
 SENTENCED TO DEATH

Tokio. January 1S.-D. Kotoku, his wife, and 23 fellow anarchists were today sen fenced to death for having conspired against the life of the Emperor and other members of the imperial family. Two other men similarly accused were released.
 All of the prisoners were first arraigned before a special court, the duties of which are similar to those of a grand jury in America. On November this court announced that the prisoners had been found guilty and recommended that they be punished under clause 7S of the criminal statutes, which provides capital punishment for plotters against the inn perial family.
 The wife of Kotoku was the only wom- an in the band.

SUPREME COURT MAY
 DISSOLVE COUNTIES Mississippi Governor Pleased

BATTLEsHIP PROMISED

Jackson, Miss, January 1S.-(Special.)- George county would do well to look to her laurels in the event the supreme court of Mississippi decides the Walthall county case as was intimated in the de- cison of the supreme court today, both having been created under similar acts of the legislature.
 Chief Justice Mayes in handing down the decision of the court in the case of the state, use, etc, ex rel S. S. Hudson, ct al. vs. Warren Piggott, ct al, election commissioners, Marion county, which was that it should be remanded to the docket for oral argument The chief justice departed somewhat from his rule of sim ply announcing decisions, by explaining to the bar that the court was not satis- fled as to the legal standing of the com mssioners who were appointed by the governor to hold the election in that por-' ton of Marion county which was sought to be made a part and parcel of the new county of Walthall, with county seat at Tylertown. These commissioners were or dered by the act of the legislature to hold the election, and yet they appointed clerks and other officers to hold same. A cry of fraud was raised by Marion coun- ty opponents of the new county, and the count of one of the boxes was stopped. That defeated the new county. But the ballot box was sealed and pre- served and in the event it is decided those ballots shall be counted the new county Is carried in Marion county by nine votes.
 In that portion of the county of Pike proposed to be taken for a part of the new county the vote carried by large ly close.
 Should the supreme court decide, that the clerks and judges were illegally chosen the election will be thrown out and there will be no new county of Walthall But that is not the worst of it-the same cry might be raised as to George coun- ty and that also be thrown out after the county has been formed and officer elected and placed in charge of the af- fairs thereof.
 Another case of interest that was re- versed and remanded was that of Townes Howell ys. the state from Copiah county. Howell was convicted on the charge of having stabbed and killed a young com panion on the streets of Crystal Springs year or more ago. Both boys were highly connected and the trial excited a great deal of interest at home and abroad. The reasons for the reversal were not stated by the court.

4 In order that the teachers and children
 of the state may be encouraged to take more interest than ever in the observ- ance of Arbor Day on January 20, Miss Susie V. Powell, in charge of school inn rrovement work, has taken considerable pains to collect some interesting data
 and facts concerning tree and shrubs found in various parts of the world, that are out of the ordinary and of more than
 passing interest. She does not expect Mississippi children to plant Mariposa grove. Borrowing" trees weeping" or laughing trees, but she hopes they will read about them and prepare to plant trees of some ornamental varieties on the 2Oth in every school yard in the state.
