TO PENSION LISTS
ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED NEW
NAMES PLACED ON ROLLS sY
STATE BOARD.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. 26-Gen.
John P. Hickman, secretary of the
state pension board, has announced
that about 400 names have been add.
ed to the pension list for widows in
the state, and that over 800 other ap-
plications have been received, and
are under consideration. The addi.
tion of these names is due to the

to swell the usual funds of the board
About two years ago the legisla.
ture cut down the annual appropria.
tion for this department $4,000, and
the board was compelled at once to
revise the list and exclude many who
had previously received pensions
The excluded names were filed as
applications, and all new applications
have also been added. The list has
steadily grown during the last two
years, until now there are 700 names
on the list. Gen. Hickman is great.
ly pleased with the new approoria-
tion, and will try to include every
deserving name in the pension list.

WHITE SLAVE
ACT UPHELD
SUPREME COURT TAKES POSI-,
TioN THAT TRAFFIC MAY
BE REGULATED.

( WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.--On the
theory that traffic in women in in
ter-state commerce may be regulated
by legislation as we'll as the traffic
in drugs, foods or cattle, the supreme
court of the United States today up
held the validity Of the federal white
slave traffic. act of 1910. 1t had been
contended this question of morality
was reserved for action by the
states. Justice McKenna delivered
the courts opinion.
"Our dual form of government has
its perplexities," he said, "state and
nation having different spheres of
jurisdiction, but it must be kept in
mind that we are one people and the
powers reserved to the states and
those conferred in the nation are
adopted to be exercised, whether in
dependently or concurrently, to pro-
mote the general welfare, material
and moral. This is the effect Of the
decisions, and surely If the facility
of interstate transportation can be
taken away from the decentralization
of lotteries, the debasement of OBJ
scene literature the contagion of
diseased cattle or persons, the impur-
ity of food and drugs, the like falility
can be taken away from the syste-
matte de5auchery of women and
more insistently of girls"

of them have been recaptured. q as
On the night of the 11th lock was

was no re-apture of any of these. On
last Sunday night twelve others es-
capped by prizing the window open.
OF this latter number one was re.
captured before he got far away, and
Tuesday afternoon four others were
captured by the officers at Franklin
and returned here and placed in jail.
This morning Howard Lunn, one of

be reached in them.
