EERRIN GRAND JURY
COMPLETES WORK
Indicated a Total of 434 Per-
sons for Murder of
% Men.

Marion, H., Oct. 23.-(By the A.
P)-The special grand jury which
today resumed its investigation of
the Herrin mine killings after a
months recess late this afternoon re-
turned an indictment for murder
numbering 4s persons, announced it
had completed its work and was ed
journed. This makes 434 persons
the grand jury has indicted in con-
nection with the rioting in which %
men were killed.
Those indicted today were charged
with the death of Ignace Knginis,
the last victim of the rioting TO ex-
pire, who died since the grand jury
took temporary adjournment 80
days ago. Only few witnesses were
heard today and they are said to
have told of wounds inflicted on Ku-
binis and which are said to have re-
suited in his death.
Circuit Judge Hartwell, before
whom the indictrsent was returned
expressed the opinion that the true
bill is illegal because it was returned
at the September term of court by q
grand jury impanelled by the July
term of court. States Attorney
Duty expressed an opposite opinion
and stated he would appeal to the
state supreme court If the indict.
ments were declared illegal by the
lower court.

TWO DAYS CARNIVAL
AT COURT HOUSE

Everything is in readiness for the
big Halloween Carnival at the court
house Tuesday and Wednesday. 1t
was decided best to run the carnival
two nights. 1t will open Tuesday
afternoon at three O'Clock with a
grand parade of all the school chill
dren. They will march from the
Wagner street school building down
on to Main street, thence as far
south as the depot, where they will
form line and sing. Each grade
will carry a banner boosting the
Carnival, the PIT. A. or the Dental
Campaign now in the schools.
Watch the long line of the first grade
pupils. There are more pupils in
the first grade alone than in the en-
tire high school. We hope the whole
town will turn out to see this parade.
1t will be an inspiring spectacle-800
future Water Valley citizens in one
group.
The Carnival will then open at the
court house, and from then until
10 p. m. the clowns and monkeys,
witches, etc, will make merry, while
the ladies in charge of the booths
hope to sell all the balloons, con-
fetti, Halloween caps, cakes, candy,
sandwiches, etc. There will be an
admission charge at the gate of sc,
just one nickle.
At 7:30 the pupils of the third
grade, under Miss Inder Davidson's
supervision, will give Halloween
play on the court house lawn. At
$3.50 there will be a parade of the
maskers and the judges will award
a prize of 81 to the one with the
most effectual costume. Children
and grown ups are asked to get in
to the fun and mask and enter this
contest. There will be music
throughout the evening by Henry's
band. Wednesday the Carnival will
open at $50 and the same pro-
gramme will be given.
The judges in the Halloween pos
ter contest met Thursday morning
at the school house and judged the
16 posters that had been made by
the different grades of Wagner St.
and North End Schools. 1.-THE PIT.
A. offered a prize of SIS to the grade
sending in the best poster, and this
was won by the third and fourth
grade, North End school, Mrs. Whit
ley, teacher, and the second prize Of
$3.50 was won by sixth grade, Wag-
ncr st. school, Mrs. Tarver, teacher.
sth and 9th grade, North End school,
Miss Addington, teacher, honorable
mention. The judges in this con-
test were Mesdames Oscar Davis,
Will Wagner and B. Leland. The
posters were labeled and they did not
know whose posters they were judg-
ing. The posters are on exhibit in
the store windows. Take time to stop
and look at them, they are worth look
ing at.

The Constitution of the new Irish
Free State has now advanced to its
final stage, and only few formal
tiles remain to put this notable docu-
ment into complete effect in the ad-
ministration of Ireland and of Its
relations with the British govern
ment.
The Constitution in its final form
is substantially the same as original
ly framed, in accordance with the
treaty negotiated between the Irish
delegates, headed by Arthur Griffith
and Michael Collins, and the British
cabinet members, headed by Premier
Lloyd George. The treaty provided
for a constitution, and this was later
drawn up in Dublin and given cab
met approval in London.
Few Amendments Made.
A few minor amendments were
made in the course of the discussion
of the Constitution by the Irish Par
lament, but all the essential features
of the original pact remain, and par
ticularly the creation of Ireland
as the "Iriah Free State" its estab-
lishment as one of the dominions Of
the British Commonwealth, with its
own Parliament and executive or
ganization; and with the oath of al
legiance to the King, which still pre-
serves the tie uniting Ireland with
the rest of the British common
wealth.
The Constitution has not yet re-
ceived the final sanction of the Brit
ish Parliament. But as the Irish
treaty, on which the constitution Is
based, was favorably acted upon by
the British Parliament, the ratifica-
ton of the Constitution is looked up
on as formality. The action OF the
Irish Parliament is final.
The document grants political ana
religious freedom in Ireland, and un-
der it no law favoring any cult may
be passed. Opinion and the right OF
association are unhindered and un-
trammeled. There are two elective
houses, and all citizens of both sexes
enjoy the right to vote. The initia-
tive and referendum are provided
for.

Saving of Gasoline Given Place Of
Greatest Consideration
by Owner.
FUEL CONSUMED WHILE IDLE
Rapid Acceleration Is an Expensive
Luxury Using More Gas Than
Gradual Speed Increases
Other Little Economies

Honest efforts to operate an auto
mobile economically often fail be
cause the driver does not, in many
cases, understand the fundamental
practices most important to good re
suits. Although fuel is by no means
the largest item of operating expense,
gasoline savings are customarily
given the place OF greatest cousldera-
ton and consequently deserve first
mention
The most fragrant source of gaso-
line waste lies in idling the motor.
Many drivers believe gasoline con
sumption to be slight while idling
and that by avoiding use of the starter,
they are saving the storage battery,
To be correct the battery is much
better off when used normally, not be
Ing allowed to remain fully charged
and practically inactive for long peri
DDS of time. On the other hand, fuel
consumption while idling is supris-
ingly great because the vacuum in the
manifold is 50 low that a very rich
mixture is required in order that the
heavy fuel now in use may reach the
cylinders.
Harm Done by Iding.
When idlng. excessive amounts of
gasoline collect in the manifold and
valve pOrts-eXcessiye carbon is formed
the motor overheats-and the raw
gasoline dilutes the crankcase oil
fabrication at this slow speed is in
efficient because the splash from the
connecting rods is minimized.
Rapid acceleration, although de
slrabIe in traffic, is an expensive lux
urv. using much more gasoline than
gradual speed increases. Unnecessary
and violent application Of the speeds
and brakes will wear the bands pre-
maturely, strain every part of the
car and speed tires toward the junk
pile. On long stretches Of open road
the driver will obtain better results
by using the hand throttle instead Of
the foot accelerator, If one is installed
in the car. This Is true because the
uneven gas feed caused by the foot
futtering up and down on the foot
throttle is eliminated, the hand throttle
providing a steady flow of fuel to the
engine.
MANY drivers labor under the I'M
nression that II is economical to leave
the spark advanced to the limit and
run in high speed as long as the motor
will hang on, but the spark should al
ways be retarded as soon as the motor
begfns to labor. A continually retarded
spark is equally harmful The spark
setting should always be adapted to
the conditions under which the engine
Is operating.
Some Simple Matters.
Even simple matters, such as steer
ing are important the proper method
Of turning corners and minimizing
switching back and forth when parking
are important tire, transmission, rear
axle and gasoline savers. The car VIII
run most efficiently within a certain
easily determined range Of speeds All
of these things enter into this question
Of economical driving, exerting apprecl-
able influences upon operating eX-
penses. They are the fundamentals
of skillful driving which the car owner
will do well to study, because they
result I'm smoother operation, sensible
motor maintenance and true operating
economy.

Some doctors still tacitly approve
II they do not actually prescribe the
use OF calomel as cathartic. Long
ago, before the era of physiology and
before the invention of modern in
struments Of precision, there was
general belief that calomel had some
special effect on the liver. that it

which a torpid" or inactive liver
was fancied to be an important fea-
ture. The few doctors who now sane

ascribing to calomel some other ef-
feet such as a fancied "antiseptic"
action in the intestine-all of which
is insignificant. Doctors or folks
who use calomel today as q cathartic
Use 1t because. they imagine it in

Mind you, 1 am not referring to the
prescribing of calomel as a remedy

Calomel Is by no means the only
drug which purports to increase or
improve the action of the liver in
some desirable way. The woods are
