fit thereof are liable to punishment

GRANDMA USED SAGE TEA
TO DARKEN HER GRAY HAIR
She Made Up a Mixture Of Sage Tea
and Sulphur to Bring Back Color,
Gloss, Thickness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound.
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray; also ends dandruff, itching
scalp and stops falling hair. Years
ago the only way to get this mixture
was to make 1t at home, which Is
mussy and troublesome. Nowadays,
by asking at any store for "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy" you
will get a large bottle Of this famous
old recipe for about SO cents.
Don't stay gray! Try it! No one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair, as 1t does it SO naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time; by morning the gray
hair disappears, and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy. Adv,

SIX MILLIONS ARE
INVOLVED IN SUIT
BRIEFS IN FAMOUS HINES LUM-
Der COMPANY CASE FILED
WITH SUPREME COURT.
FORFEITURE OF LAND ASKED
Litigation Instituted in 1910 over Al
legged Holding Of Property in Vio-
Iation Of Law-Defendants
Claim Immunity.

Jackson.-Six million dollars is In
volved in the final disposition OF the
celebrated case of the Edward Hines
Lumber company, submitted on brlet
TO the supreme court of Mississippi.
The litigation was Instituted February
3, 1910, in the c%hancery court OF Pearl
River county, the specific purpose OF
the bill being to have the court de-
clare forfeited TO the state certain land
held by the corporation in violation OF
the law. The defendants, other than
the Lake Nebagamon Lumber com
pany. dismissed from the suit, are
charged with having acquired title 10
lands in this state to the value or
S7425, 900. It is further charged in
the bill that defendant Edward Hines,
and the foreign corporations, defend
ants. hold the lands the legal title to
which is in them respectively In trust
for the Edward Hines Lumber com
pauy; that they purchased and hOld
the same in order to ovade the laws
Of the state of Mississippi. The prayer
in the bill is for the forfeiture to the
state of all Of said lands in excess of
$1,000, 900 in value, on the claim That
the code of 1892, section S3S, should
be applied to the case, or, If the code
of 1906 shall be held to be applicable,
for the forfeiture of all In excess of
5 1000, 900 in value.
1t Is charged that Edward Hines
and his associates have deliberately
adopted the plan of assembling under
their control large quantities OF the
timber lands IN South Mississippi In
such manner as to circumvent the
laws to keep such violation so con
cealed as that their operations may
appear to be entirely innocent.
The defendants demurred to, the bill,
their principal ground Of demurrer be-
ing that the laws of the state fixing
the amount in value of land which
corporations may hold do not apply
TO foreign corporations. These are all
foreign corporations. Chancellor Shee-
han sustained the demurrer and dis
missed the bill, This appeal is prose-
cuted by the state from the final de-
cree of the chancellor dismissing the
bill.

AGRICULTURE BILL
PASSED BY SENATE
MAKES APPROPRIATION FOR CAR.
RYiNG EDUCATION TO FARM
Frs IN EVERY STATE.

Washington.-The agricultural ex-
tension bill was passed by the senate
without the formality of a roll call.
The main fight centered on the Jones
amendment, providing that the funds
supplied by the government in those
states where there are colored schools
and colleges teaching agriculture
should be divided between the white
and colored schools.
This amendment was rejected by O
vote of SO to %. An amendment by
Senator Shafroth that the disposition
Of the funds should be left to the gov
ernor and secretary of state of each
state was agreed to.
The agricultural extension bill Is
intended to carry agricultural educa-
ton to the farmers who are not able
to 20 where that kind of information
is taught. 1t provides for an initial
donation by the government OF $490,'
900, or $1O,, 900 for each state and Ha-
wall.
After the first year the Federal gov
eminent appropriates not to exceed
5000, 900, and an additional 100000
with each succeeding year for a pc
Rod of eight years. This money Is
to be appropriated on the half-and'
half plan, the Federal government
only supplying an amount equal to
that supplied by the states themselves
for the same purpose. At the end Of
eight years the appropriation becomes
a permanent annual $4%,S5O,O00. These
funds are to be distributed among the
states on the basis of rural popula
ton in each state.

laps TO BUY MEXICAN LAND
Option Secured by Oriental Capitalists
on Deal That Involves Twenty
Million Dollars.

Brawley.-Japanese capitalists have
obtained an option, according to relia-
BILE information, on a large part Of
the great ranch properties of the Cal
ifornia-M Mexico Land & Cattle Com
pany at SIS an acre and the $40, 0O0, 900
necessary to consummate the pur-
chase will be supplied, If the deal goes

ment, who recently visited the Impe.
rial Valley and Mexico with three
other prominent Japanese. The land
lies almost wholly in Mexico.

BANKER RAINE IS INDICTED
President Of Defunct Memphis lnsti.
tuition Charged With Embezzle-

Memphis.-The grand jury has re-
turned an indictment against Hunter
Raine, president Of the defunct Mer-
camille Bank for larceny, embezzle'
ment and fraudulent breach of trust,
He is charged in the indictment with
nisappropriating $7SS,SO4.76.
No attempt was made to indict any
other person connected with the bank,

JUDICIAL ELECTIONS UPHELD
State Supreme Court Declares Amend
mont Valid and Binding.

Jacksonville Supreme Court mas
handed down an opinion declaring that
the amendment to the legislation pro-
yidlng for the election Of circuit judges
and c~hancellors and abolishing the APP
pointiye system is valid and binding
This means that the Legislature must
now pass an act providing for the cleo
ton Of seventeen circuit judges and
ten %chancellors at the regular election
in November, and terms Of all incum'
bents now holding under the appoint
i've system will expire on LIST OF next
January. Two years ago the legisla'
ture inserted the elective Judiciary
amendment into the legislature, 1t
having been adopted at the general
election in 1911. A bill was then
passed providing for the election OF
circuit judges and chancellors, which
was vetoed by Gov. Brewer just prior
to the adjournment of the 1912 SEES
sion, on the ground that it was un'
constitutional.
Associate Justice N. NJ. Cook dis
scented from the majority opinion OF
Chief Smith and Special Justice j. S.
Sexton, which is a lengthy document
of forty-eight typewriter pages. The
dissenting opinion covers twelve
pages.
Gov. Brewers veto Of the act OF
1912 was based on the opinion that
the amendment to section 273 OF the
legislature had not been properly ar
ranged. This view, says the majority
opinion, is not well founded, and such
a construction II followed in all ef-
forts to revise the organic law would
render It practically impossible to
amend the legislation. In brief, the
main question before the court was
whether one amendment or two
amendments were submitted under
the same heading at the 1911 election,
and the Supreme Court holds that
only one amendment was submitted.

QUAKE ROCKS THE
EASTERN STATES
SEVERE DISTURBANCE is CEN
TRIAL OVER NORTHERN AND
CENTRAL NEW YORK.
ONE MAN KILLED BY CAVEIN
Shock Extends South to Washington
and As Far West As st. Louis.
No Alarm at Light Tremor
In New York City.

New York.-An earthquake lasting
from fifteen to thirty seconds and dis
turbing particularly what are geo
graphically known as the Devonian
and Silurian sections of the earth,s
strata in the northeastern parts Of the
United States, and vas especially Sc
we're in the central and northern por.
lions Of New York state. Virtually
all of New York state, including this
city, felt the shock and New England
generally, lower eastern Canada and
parts of New Jersey and eastern Penn
sylvania were shaken. Tremors were
recorded as far south as Washing.
ton and as far west as st. Louis.
At Albany the shock was severe
enough to shake pictures from the
walls of the capitol, and at Bingham
ton a laborer was killed by the cav
ing in of a trench in which he was
working. At Fort Plain the heavy
doors of a bank vault shook under
the influence of the quake, and from
other parts Of the state the falling OF
chimneys and swaying of houses was
reported.
The only part of Greater New York
which felt the shock of the earthquake
severely enough to alarm the popula'
ton was the Heights section OF
Brooklyn, where those who had
sensed the shock were under the i'm
preston that an explosion had oc'
Cured. In many Manhattan office
buildings a slight tremor vas felt, but
the disturbance was not great enough
to cause excitement.
