AUTO TAXES REFUNDED.
Mississippi Only State in the UniOn Without Tax
on Automobiles.

Auto owners all over Mississippi have
received checks from Jackson refund
ing them the auto tax which they paid
under the law passed two years ago.
The law, which taxed autos according to
their horsepower, was declared uncon-
stitutional by the Supreme Court on the
ground that it was class legislation.
The legislature which met this winter
ordered refund of all money collected
under the law,
Mississippi now stands as the only
state in the union in which there is no
automobile tax. Under previous law
municipalities had the privilege of as
sessing such a tax, but that law was
repelled when the horsepower state tax
was assessed.
The refund amounted to several
thousand dollars. The money comes
out of the general fund, to which it was
paid, the Mississippi auto tax not being
applied to the construction of good
roads, as in the majority of states.

CONGRESSMAN HARRISON GIVEN BOOST.
Alabama Candidate Fer Congress Uses 0u
Congressman fer Example.

Congressman B. P. Harrison OF the
Coast district is enjoying an unusal
form of advertising. Oscar I. Gray oi
Mobile, candidate for Congress, is after
the scalp of George w. Taylor, and in
big advertisement which he is spread
ing broadcast, appears the following
statement:
"Be not afraid to change and put in a
young and new man. Pat Harrison is a
new congressman, having served in
Congress only few years. Look wnat
he has done for Gulfport, Pascagoula.
Pass Christian, in his district, was the
winter capital"
The point he raised was that he would
be as successful as Harrison in securing
appropriations for Noble, which is
Alabama's only sea port.

Deceased was thrice married. The
first wife was Miss Florilla Clough,
of Connersville. Three children were
born to them. One, Mrs. Ida Ellis,
of Denver is living. The wife died
many years ago. The second mar
riage was with Miss Emmeline
Powell, of this country. To this mar
rage, son, Louis Zeller of Milton,
was born. This wife was removed
by death as the first had been. The
third wife was sister Of the second
Miss Charity Powell. A daughter
was born TO them, Mrs. Lille Ran

and the son is here, but the other
daughter, Mrs. Ellis will not be able
to come. The final services will be

In honesty, industry, kindness and
those cardinal virtues which are the
cornerstone Of character Ignatius
Zeller was well endowed indeed. His
life was long and full of good en-
deavors, and his death has removed a
friend and left cherished memory
to practically everyone who knew
him. The widow, who has been his
companion for long years, is left

Ignatius Zeller, one of the early

of its best respected residents, died
at his home, on Western avenue, al
O'Clock Thursday morning. He was
in his eighty-first year, had suffered
stroke Of paralysis several years
ago, and had been in declining health
for fully four years. Thus his re-

unable to prepare themselves
Mr.. Zeller was born in Germany on
December 80, 1884. When child 8
years of age he came with his par

his boyhood in Cincinnati. There he
learned the trade and the business of

man he came to Connersville, and,

store on Central avenue, across from
the court house, and still later pur-
sued his business in other stands in

In 1883 he sold his establishment to
the late Adam Rothermel, and moved
to Idaho Springs, Colorado. He was
there eight years, then moved to Du-
