RULING NIGG OF OF THE
SUPREME COURT
As To The Liability OF Bondsmen
And Bond Companies And
Public Officials.

JACKSON, Miss, April 13-A de-
cision of very vital interest to bonds
men and bond companies and to pub
lie officials having charge of public
moneys was rendered Tuesday by the
supreme court in the case of the state
on relation of District Attorney ]. F.
Berry, for use of Tishomingo County,
against W. M. Hundley, county trea-
surer, and his bondsmen.
The supervisors of Tishomingo in
1911 issued $4,000 Of road bonds for
one district of the county. The bonds
were bought by the Bank of Com
merce of Memphis through the Tisho-
mingo County Banking Company. The
check was given by the Memphis bank
to the order of treasurer of Tisho-
mingo County, with a receipt for the
money to be assigned by the treas
urer. Hundley indorsed the check and
signed the receipt.
Hundley's bond as treasurer de-
scribed his office as treasurer gen.
eral county funds" instead of county
treasurer. The check and receipt
were delivered to the Tishomingo
Banking Company, which eashed the
check and delivered the bonds to the
Memphis bank. Hundley went out
of office some three weeks later and
did not account to his successor for
these funds; he also claimed that he
did not know the sale had been con-
summated. The Tishomingo bank
credited the money to good roads
fund district No. l." The bank be-
came insolvent. A portion of the
money was later collected by the cou-
nty and suit was entered against
Hundley and his bondsmen for the
balance.
The opinion of the court was de-
livered by Chief Justice Smith.
The courts ruling was as follows:
"First-A bond delivered and ap-
proved as a bond of public officer,
required by law, In order that he may |
hold the office and receive the emo
luments, is binding on every person
who subscribes it under section 1868,
code 1906, although the office is err
roneously described therein
Second The bond Of a public Of
icer is security not only for the
performance Of the duties incumbent
on him when the bond was executed,
but for such other duties not differ
ent in kind which the Legislature
may thereafter impose upon him.
'.Third-It is tie duty of a county
treasurer not to issue a receipt for
money derived from the sale Of conn-
ty bonds until the money has come
into his possession, and any loss re-
sulting to the county because OF the
isuance by the treasurer Of such
receipt before actually receiving the
money, is covered by his official
bond.
Where county treasur-
er enables bank to receive purchase
money of bonds, sold By the bank OF i
the county, his receipt for the money,
be delivered by it to the purchaser of
the bonds, and fails to collect suchc
money from the bank and turn IT ov-
sr to his successor in office. his off
,iaf bond is security therefor, althou-
yh his successor could have himself
collected the money from the bank"

peared again before the Diet and gave
his answer.
"Wilt thou defend all the books ac-
knowledged to be thine Nuther had
acknowledged the books to be his on
the day before) 'or at least recaht in
part? That was the question they
put to Luther in German and Latin.
Luther replied at some length. He
said that he was willing to recant
and cast his books into the fire, if he
could be convinced by the Scriptures
that he had taught error. His reply
displeased Eek. He asked Luther to
say whether he would say 'Revoco' or
not. Luther then replied in these
words.
"Since your Imperial Majesty, Ell
ectoral and Princely Graces demand
simple, artless, true answer, / will
give one which shall have neither
horns nor teeth. Unless l be over
come and convinced by proofs of the
Holy Scriptures or b y manifestly
clear grounds and reasons-for | be-
lieve neither the Pope nor the coun-
ellis alone, because it is an open and
known fact that they have often err
red and opposed each other-and |
am convinced by those passages ad-
duced and introduced to me, and my
conscience is bound in Gods Word, !
can or will recant nothing, since it is
neither safe nor advisable to do aught
against conscience, God help me!
Amen
Luther maintained his firm stand.
He said, Rather will | lose life and
limb than surrender Gods true and
clear word.
"On his homeward journey friends
took him captive and, for safety's
sake, removed him to the Castle
Wartburg. 1t was there that Luther,
in December 1921, began his transla-
tions of the Bible into that German
which became the German in litera-
ture and speech and which is still
spoken and written today.
Luther was put under the ban of
the empire and remained under the
condemnation the rest of his life. He
lived on and continued
his work until his peaceful death in
February, 1916.

ing the blessings Of Luther's firm
stand at Worms In 1921, Humanity
the Liberty Bell, with its
inscription, Proclaim liberty through
out all the land, unto all the inhabi-
tants thereof, would never have rung
out the signing of the Declaration Of
Independence by the Continental Con-
gress, July 4, 1776, and our Charter
Of Liberty, the Constitution Of the
United States, would never have been
written, if Luther at Worms in 152l
had spoken that one word, 'Revoco'.
"The religious and civil liberty,
which we Americans prize very high I
", is the result of that independence
which Luther maintained at Worms |
as the birthright of man"

James Meehan, Henry lehman and

Of age, and rather peculiar combi-
nation, from a standpoint of national
ity, passed through Brunswick yester-
day on long hike. The three young
men left Boston, Mass, more than
six weeks ago and announced that
their destination was San Diego, Cal,
but they first wanted to see Florida,
one of the boys having a brother in
Jacksonville.
Two of the youngsters are on foot,
while one does most of his travelling
on bicycle. we have not walked
ali the way from Boston" saidiHein-
mann, who seems to head the party
"for many miles have we been given
free ride by tourists. We expect
to catch "a ride out of Brunswick to-
day and hopoe to be in Jacksonville
tonight. We expect to stick together,
the three OF us, an ITishman, Dutch
man, and a Jew, until we reach San
Diego. which we hope to do by March
first, provided, 81. conrse.-~we catch
q sufficient number of rides"
'rhe boys said thus far on their trip
they had enjoyed the novelty very
much. that they would have caught
more rides, except that many tourists
seemed afraid to pick them up.

'aTHE BIRD OF PARADISE"
AT PINNEY BOISE, JAN. o, 10

That human hearts beat with the
same love throb whether they beat
under skins of brown or white, is one
OF the primary lessons OF Richard
Walton Tully's celebrated Hawaiian
romance THE Bird of Paradise"
which Mr.. Tully will present at the
Pinney theatre in Boise Sunday and
Monday, January 9th and 10th.
The tragic episodes in this powerful
lay are shown just because of that
reat universal instinct, Luana, the
eautiful Hawaiian girl, passionately
ives Paul Wilson, the American, VIVA
! turn as fervently loves her. But
rom the moment of his devotion to
This lovely but sadly primitive little
creature, Wilson not only loses caste
bur he loses that essence of force and
distinction which is his by right of
birth and race. He finally realizes
this fact, and then comes the tragedy
into his sweetheart's life.
The cast is headed by Florence
Rockwell, an actress of exceptional
ability Miss Rockwell will play
Luana, the Hawaiian maiden, around
whom the story centers, and il is said
she is superior to those who have en-
acted it before. Messrs. Tully and
Morosco have personally supervised
the casting of this production this
season which is said to be the strong
est cast sent on tour in this never
waning stage triumph.
