Production Of Cochineai,

1t is the opinion of Monseigneur
Leon Diguet, who has been studying
the state Of the cochineal industry in
Mexico for some time, that before
many years have passed cochineal
scarlet will have become thing of
history only, like the Tyrian purple
Of antiquity. 1t is made from the
dried female of the cochineal insect
(Coccus cactD. They are gathered by
brushing the branches Of the nopal
cactus, on which the insects feed, as
soon as they begin to lay their eggs.
They are then desiccated in ovens or
killed with boiling water 1t has
been estimated that one pound of
cochineal contains no fewer than TO-.
900 distinct insects. The color Is
brought out and fixed by chloride of
tin. Only a few plantations of the
nopal cactus now remain-hence the
fear that the dye will soon become a
thing of the past at any rate, unless
some other substance is found on
which to feed the insects.

PROPOSITION DECIDED BY THE COURT OF APPEALS TESTER DAY REvERsEs FINDING OF LOCAL CITY COURT

Montgomery, December 17.-(special)- Shareholders in banks of Alabama must pay taxes on the value of state bonds which are the banks property, although the banks themselves are exempt from taxation on the same bonds. The propo- sition was decided by the court of ap- peals Tuesday, in an opinion rendered by Judge Perry Thomas anent the case of George B. Tarrant, tax collector of Jef- ferson county, against the Bessemer Ma tional bank.
 Certain state bonds are exempt from taxation by provisions of the code; but the exemption does not apply to owner of the bank and to bank stockholders as well. That said the court of appeals, would be double exemption and not legal. The Jefferson county tax collector ought to collect from the shareholders of the Bessemer National bank taxes on the value of state bonds in possession of the bank, charging the amount to the as-

 sets of the bank which were pro rated among the shareholders as their per- sonal property. His effort was contested, the question being raised that the code exempted the state bonds. and that their value therefore was to be deducted from the total amount of holdings, exclusive of real estate, on which the shareholders pay taxes among themselves.
 The Birmingham city court upheld the banks contention.
 The opinion of Judge Thomas sustained by his colleagues. reverses tho findings of the lower court. The value of state bonds must not be deducted from the value of the banks assets, 1t held. The court of appeals ruled againr unhridled reversals of lower court judgments on teehnicalities, in the case of Lucy Couch, against the state, appealed from the Bes- semer city court, an opinion in which was rendered by Judge Perry Thomas Tues day.
 Lucy Couch, convicted on charge of violating the prohibition law sought a reversal of the judgment on the ground that the indictment against her charged her with having sold "vinous, spurious or maltous liduors," when the language of the law has it, "vinous, spurious or malt liquors." The court declared the indict- ment invalid, it was contended by tho womans attorneys, who claimed that the sale of maltous liquors was no indict- able offense. But the court of appeals held otherwise.
