Deep Regret in Montgomery

News of the death of Judge Robert Ten
nent Simpson, associate justice of the. SUI
preme court of Alabama, was received
in Montgomery and in official circles with
the deepest regret. Judge Simpson was
much beloved in Montgomery. where he
had made his home since his election
to the supreme court bench In 1904, and
his death was a distinct shock to his
many friends here.
He was popular among all officials at
the capitol. and many expressions of sor-
row were heard on all sides at the state
house today.
Judge Simpson left Montgomery a snort
time ago for New York on a pleasure
trip. None of the judges of the supreme
court knew he was in New York, and
when the news of his death came 1t was
received by them with deep expressions
of sorrow.
The only members OF the supreme court
who are in Montgomery at the present
time are Judges Sayre and Mayfield and
General Robert E. I4igon, clerk. The first
intimation they had of Judge Simpson 5
illness was contained in the press reports
today announcing his death.
The court will probably be formally
notified of Judge Simpsons death, and
II is expected that nearly all of the Judges
will attend the funeral Judge DowdeIl
is at his home in Lafayette Judge Nc
Clellan is in Tennessee; Judge Somer-
vile is In Virginia, and Judge Anderson
is in North Carolina.
1t was announced today that Governor
C'Neal will probably attend Judge Simp-
sons funeral

TAX COMMIT S|ONERS
LEAVE FOR CONECUH
Certain Tax Assessments in
That County Will Be
Investigated

Montgomery, August 13.-tSpecial.)-
Judge A. A. Evans and John Powell of
the state tax commission, went to Con-
ecuh county Tuesday to work on certain
tax assessments in that county. Lee
Long, chairman of the commission, and
VIII r. Lloyd, clerk will probably spend
the next few days in Montgomery, work.
ing on other assessments.
Property owners OF Montgomery county
are interested in the probable assessments
to be made in that county by the COM
mission. IT is not known when the com
mission will begin actual work in Mont
gomery county, but 1t is understood that
a large number of raises will be reported.
Whether these raises will compare with
those made in jefferson county cannot be
learned, though there is a very general
impression that the work of the commits
sion in this county will result In a large
number of raises, approximating several
millions.
The members of the tax commission arg
non-committal on the subject, declaring
that they have not yet determined just
when they will begin making raises in
this county. or whether or not there will
be any materia, changes in the assess
| nents over last year.

Washington, August 13.-(Special)-
Genius is not appreciated in this cold
and sordid world. This seems strange
and homogeneous. but nevertheless it
is a fact why can't people recognize
a genius on the spot without him hav-
ing to break the news to them, and
when 1t is broken, why do they re-
ceive the intelligence with a loud
coarse guffaw? Genius is below par; it
will never receive its rights until 1t
forms union; that's the idea: union
of geniuses would certainly go long
way toward correcting gross injustice
that is being done daily to that large
and interesting class of our citizenship.
Genius received a cruel and unjust
blow In Washington few days ago.
TOO much artistic temperament, com
bined with an affair of the heart,
brought into trouble Eldridge Gentry,
u years old. who is one of our young
est but brightest geniuses. who would
shine, II he was allowed to, in poetry
and art.

have in my heart the picture of a beau
tiful girl, and although she is uncon-
scious of my love 1 plan some day to
inform her of myt affections"
Mrs. Gentry. although the mother of
this sprouting genius, freely admitted
that she did not appreciate his talents,
and declared that he was big enough
to go to work, but that he was lazy,
and stayed away from home late at
nights. He spends most of his time in
moving picture shows and around the
house drawing pictures, she said.
Real art has never been appre-
ciated," sighed E1dridge. Many of the
great geniuses of the world have died
in poverty because of the inability of
the commonplace world to realize their
talents. What is work when art is to
be considered? Why should l do men
tai work when l have my talents to
deevlop?"
'Fll bite" said Judge DeLacey, why
should you?"
s The judge, however. never having
dealt with real genius, and therefore
being totally incompetent to sit upon
the case, told Eldridge that there was
no law against boys falling in love,
or in being talented, but that there
were laws against boys staying upon
the streets late at nights and refusing
to obey their mothers lie therefore,
totally at variance with justice and all
that committed him to the board of
children's guardians for ono year
Surely there should be law for the
protection of genius, wherever found,
and those of us who are geniuses
should see to 1t that the fate of this
poor boy be a lesson to us. We must
form a union. After while. they Will
actually demand that geniuses go to
work, even as they intimated in the
case of Eldridge. What is the country
coming to?
