The opinion of the supreme court sus

general satisfaction here. Th- <pt>'.tio:i
was raised be Hon. llob-.-rt I lodges in the

sustained some very important cas s
would have been affected. Judgments to
the amount of SllO.H’O woil’d have had to

may b ■ taken to the supreme court for

was drawn iy local attorneys and they
naturally are proud to barn that the
suptome court has establish.d their handi
ivori. Mar." of th. vading members of
the Macon bar were coniident that th ■
court would decide as it h is done, and it
is tin lerslood that the justices agreed to
sustain the Macon court immeriiately af

STILL FINDING THE BODIES.
Victims in and Around Galveston
Are Being Searched For.
Ga i<-ton. T. x.. November 29.-Forty
five homes of storm victims wer f’’»md
a. hurie.l on the island beyond
limits this week by m.n authorized o>
tho central committee to do this woiK.
Prior to anv action on the part of i h
central committee to hive the bodies ta
the .-v.amns and marshes down the is an i
interred i her. were several reports from
th..sc quarters of the n. g. et.d dead ami
voluntary parties organize.! and erc.i.'.eil
in burial v.o. k. Probably titty ot si .en
ty-tive bodies, victims of the late stonn,
n,re burled before the matter was
brough: :■ the attention of the central
committee.
!•': ii of tile bodies were found ill the
open prairie, but in the swamps ai d low
marshes many w< re recoveicd. a.
corps. were decomposed beyond recogni
tion and not a thing of value w found
upon them. The pockets hid been rob
bed. Mun Os the bsbes Ot tile males
w. ie '-l-.id in jump rs an t overal's, v nic.i
led tile burying force to believe that most
of til.- bodies found were loose of work
ingmen. ,
The work of the burying squad was
done si stem itkalli and it is believed all
of the bcuies on the island have ircen
buried.
It is probable that the burying ,oree
will go i<> the mainland in a few lavs to
. ontinue the search for unbvried 'todies.

resentative Wright, of Floyd, went down
in defeat in the house last Wednesday. ■
Willie in tiie senate tile same fate was
meted out to the osteopathy measure.
The adverse action of the senate on

the issue would be a close one in the
senate ati attempt was made to amend
the bill, so as to allow osteopathists to ;
practice their profession in the slate ;
t. limit formally recognizing Hum by
law. The failed and the bill
was sillisequejitlj- defeated by si vote
of 19 to is. ’Hie speech by Senator Ro
land Ellis, of the twenty-second, in oppo
sition to tiie osteopathy bill, was ono of
the ablest delivered on the floor of the i
senate this session.
