S6,OOO,OOOT INVOLVED
COAL MEN DIDN'T WANT TO PAY
PENNSYLVANIA BACK TAXES.
The Courts Are to- Decide the Cues
ton, and Great Legal Battle
Will Be One of Results.

HARRISBURG, Pa.--Arguments
are set for today in the supreme court
on the appeals of the mining COM
panies from Judge Kunkel's decision
that the state tax on anthracite is val
id. More than 100000 in back
taxes are due the state if the law of
1913 is upheld by the higher court.
There is prospect Ct postpon emeat
of the arguments, for the attorneys
for the coal companies have claimed
they did not have sufficient time to
prepare the voluminous records on
which they base their case.
So much importance attaches to
the courts decision and so many au-
thOrities are cited in defense of the
stand taken by the corporation and
by the state that the final arguments
will be watched with great interest.
If the arguments are not heard now
it is likely that the appeal will go
over until October.
The cases which were appealed
are the test case of the Alden Coal
company, the st. Clair Coal company
and the Plymouth Coal company
Ringing on the legality of the state
tax are the millions withheld from
the state by the coal barons.

INTEREST TO BROKERS'
UNITED STATES COURT OF AP-
PEALS RENDERS DECISION.
Holds That a Debt Incurred Through
the Buying or Selling of Futures
Is Not COIIectible.

NEW ORLEANS. The federal
court of appeals today decided that
a debt incurred through future
trading" where there was no inten-
ton to deliver or to receive the COM
modify traded in, cannot be collected.
The decision was read by Judge Par
dee and was concurred in by the en-
tire court.
The decision reversed a verdict OBJ
tanned in the federal court for the
Northern district of Georgia. D. w.
James, whom the evidence showed
to be a broker, sued Waldo L. Glenn
ent for $4,000 which he said was
the amount he had avanced Clement
as margins on future cotton trading.
The decision rendered today COW
ers twenty-four pages and goes into
the case in detail 1t is stated that
such a debt could be considered only
as a gambling transaction and can
not be collected in states whose laws
make a gambling debt invalid. The
case was sent back for a new trial.

COTTON CROP is
BADLY RETARDED
Too Much Rain in Some States and
Too Little in Others, Says the
National Weather Bulletin.

WASHINGTON.-Too much rain
in Oklahoma and Arkansas and too
little in Mississippi, Texas and Louis
lana retarded cotton somewhat dur
ing the past week, according to the
national weather and crop bulletin.
The bulletin says:
Warm weather prevailed and but
little rain occurred in the cotton belt
during the week except in Oklahoma
and portions of the adjoining states,
where the rainfall was generally
heavy. However, the soil in these
portions of the belt where little rain
occurred is, in most cases, supplied
with sufficient moisture for present
needs and no harmful effects were
produced except locally in Mississippi
and Southern Texas, where the late
planted crops need more moisture for
satisfactory termination, and in Lou
isiana, where the crop is suffering
from the lack of rain.
"In Oklahoma and portions OF Ar
kansas the soil was too wet for cul-
tivation and the crop is becoming
grassy, but in all other sections of the
belt the early planted crop is up to
a good stand and we'll cultivated.

THE RECENT EXTREME HEAT
KILLED FINE HOGS IN GEORGIA
Received by Express From Iowa, and
Lived But Little While.

VALDOSTA.-J. F. Turner, who is
stocking a big stock farm near this
city with pedigreed hogs and cattle,
lost three registered Poland China
pigs, valued at $500, yesterday from
the excessive heat. The hogs came
in by express and were found to be
suffering from heat and the effect of
their long trip. They were shipped
from Manning, Iowa, and were in dis
tress when they reached this city.
Prompt attention was given them and
an attempt made to carry them out to
the farm after dark. All three of
the animals died, however, before
reaching the farm. They were among
the finest hogs ever brought to this
section.

SCHOOLS CAN'T LEGALLY PAY
INTEREST ON PAST DUE BILLS
Attorney General Grice Gives Gov
ernor Slaton Important Opinion.


ernOr Slaton Important Opinion.
ATLANTA.-District agricultural
schools in Georgia cannot legally pay
interest on their past due debts. An
opinion to this effect was rendered
to Governor Slaton today by Attor-
ney General Grice The attorney gen.
erals ruling was made in response
to request from the governor, who
had been asked by E. NJ. Butler,
treasurer of the Eighth district agri-
cultural school, if he would be per-
mitted to pay interest on past due
debts. In his ruling the attorney
general held that the agricultural
schools are agencies of the state and
therefore cannot pay interest unless
authorized by the legislature in spe-
cial statute. 1t appears that practi-
cally all Of the district schools have
past due accounts and that in some
instances their creditors were asking
for interest.

UNUSUAL BURIAL
Although Mrs. Mcintyre Died in

In accordance with her wishes, in
stead of being taken to a cemetery,

which she played as child and
whose sheltering branches were often
blown in the breeze above her head
in girlish days.
Mrs. MacIntyre died at Seattle,

beautiful Georgia scenes remained
with her and called to her across the
thousands of miles which make up
the breadth of the great American

placed in an urn and sent back for
interment under the oak. 1t is said

TAFT DENOUNCES
THE LABOR LEADERS
SAYS THEIR POWER HAS INTOX-
ICATED THEM AND BRED A
SPIRIT OF TYRANNY.
CRITICISES THE CLAYTON ACT

He Also Attacked Personnel of New
Trade Commission as Not Such as
to Give Public Confidence in Their
Experience ard Judgment.
NEW YORK.-Former President
William H. Taft in an address tonight
at the annual banquet of the National
Association of Manufacturers severe
~ criticised the Clayton act and the
Federal Trade Commission act, as
detrimental to the business interests
of the country and denounced III:
leaders OF the American Federation
OF 6 Dor for exercising power that
has become excessive and detrimental
to the public welfare and the good
of society"
Prof. Taft was co-speaker with
Senator Warren G. Harding, of Ohio,
who declared that 'the greatest men
ace Of American progress is the pro-
fessional batting of enterprises"
Il fully approve" said the former
president, 'of the principle of labor
unions. But the power their leaders
have acquired by the principle of
combination in their organization has
intoxicated them and they have exer-
cised tyranny over society and over
their own members that is certainly
leading to a reaction and to a re-
straint Of their great powers within
proper and lawful limits.
''They have failed to condemn in
any way, as they ought, the use of
criminal methods to which in a law
less spirit their representatives at
various times have seen fit to resort.
They have raised large funds in the
defense of men who have proven to
be, by their own confessions, violators
of the criminal law, and they have
manifested a desire to secure in ex-
press statutory declarations an i'm
munity of labor unions from the OPP
Grafton of general laws that should
be uniform. In other words, they
have sought to make themselves and
their agents a privileged class not
subject to the laws that affect every
other man and even themselves when
not engaged in labor disputes"
The speaker attacked the personnel
of the members of the Trade Com
mission "as not such as to give great
public confidence in their experience

HYDE. WAS HAPPY
IN HIS PRISON CELL
CALIFORNIA MILLIONAIRE SAYS
TERM WAS ''MOST USEFUL
IN MY CAREER"
WAS CALLED THE PRISON ANGEL
F. A. Hyde, Recently Released From
the Atlanta Federal Prison, Did
Great Work Among His Fellow
UnfOrtunateS.

ATLANTA, Ga.-When Frederick
A. Hyde, sixty-seven years old, mil
lionaire land dealer and former pres
ident of the board of education of
San Francisco, recently left the fed
eral penitentiary here, after serving
sixteen months, his first statement
was that those months had been the
most useful of his whole life. He
added that he would return to his
home in California, where his wife,
daughter and three sons awaited him,
not afraid to look any man in the
face.
Not only have these sixteen
months been the most useful in my
career" said Hyde, but this period
has been the happiest in my life, and
| have derived more good from my
work at the prison than at any other
time"
Sentence Is COMMITTED.
Hyde was imprisoned in December
1913, after one of the most sensa-
tiOnal court battles in the history of
the country. He was sentenced to
serve two years for alleged conspir-
acy in land frauds, but the sentence
was committed by President Wilson.
At the penitentiary Hyde was
known among his fellow prisoners as
the "angel convict" because of his
work to better the conditions of the
other prisoners, especially those who
were poor. He was assigned to the
prison newspaper, Good Works, and
in the performance of his duties was
allowed to go to all parts of the
prison and mingIe with all the con-
Yicts.
From the first he took an interest
in their welfare. He found that base
ball and few WORKOUT movie films
were the only amusements in the
prison. He laid out plans for a COM
plete athletic field which with money
furnished by himself, was constructed
by Hyde and mis- fellow prisoners.
Great Work in Prison.
Hyde's greatest work in the prison
was with the unfortunate men who
| finished their terms but looked upon
| freedom with no pleasure because
they were without friends or money
to make a new start in life. To hun
dreds of these Hyde gave encourage
ment and money, in many cases fur
nished them with sufficient funds to
re-establish themselves in business.
One of Hyde's philanthropies in the
prison was the establishment of a
library. He bought hundreds of val
liable books with his own money and
| donated them to the prison.
Hyde's conviction followed an in
vestigation by former President
Roosevelt, through Detective w. J
Burns, into alleged land frauds on
the Pacific coast. Hyde and his bust
ness associates in San Francisco
where he was very prominent in so
cial and civic life, declare that he
never defrauded the government out
of dollar, but that his violation OF
| the law was purely technical.

mobile tires and ground them up fine
in the hay cutter and mixed them
with the dirt in the box.
Now the worms have eaten all the
rubber and some of them will stretch
eight inches and snap like rubber
band. Jesse doesn't reckon the perch
can pull them off the hooks at all.
If a perch does manage to pull the
worm off the hook it will snap so hard
and hit the fish on the nose and stun
it. so Jesse can catch it with his
hands.

Substitutes for Daylight.

As a substitute for the ordinary
glass lamp-globe. there has been in
troduced in Germany a globe made OF
thin, translucent marble.
The light produced from this globe
is declared by experts to be almost
the exact counterpart of daylight. An
other German novelty in illumination
consists Of a screen coated with an
aluminium powder which, when placed
before a light, transmits a glare ex-
actly like daylight, by means of which
ever colors can be judged with perfect
accuracy.
Should these German discoveries
prove to be all that has been claimed
for them, they will doubtless be uni
versally adopted. Artificial light that
is a perfect substitute for daylight Is
what the world has been waiting for.

care-taker. a helpmate.
Similarly, in the Divine arrangement

FARMERS ARE GREAT MOVERS
Figures Show That Many Agriculture
lists Move Before They Become
Acquainted With Farms.

Statistics prepared under the direc-
ton Of the department Of commerce
show that farmers are necessarily
moving.
Replies from nearly 100000 farm
ers in answer to the question how
long they had resided upon their
farms showed that So per zen had
moved within five years. Over 1,000.-
600 farmers had moved within a year.
In the North, 81 per cent had lived
upon their farms five years or longer;
in the West, A per cent, and in the
South, Al per cent.
These figures are significant, in the
opinion of the government authori-
ties, because they show that farmers
move before they have had time to
become acquainted with the various
conditions of the soil and climate of
any one locality, this lack of knowl-
edge resulting In a small yield Of
crops per acre, In neglect Of buildings,
and in failure to conserve the fertility
of the soil. Still, nothing can be done
about the matter until some way can
be found to eradicate the rowing germ
