Quenten Rankin at Walnut Log, on Reelfoot lake, Oct. 19 last, were reversed by the supreme court and were remand ed for new trials. In reversing the cases Justice Henry A. Craft assigned two principal reasons. The first was that the grand jury which found the indictments against the al leged night riders were not se lected in a proper manner. The grand jury was • selected out of a panel named by Judge J. S. Jones, the trial judge, where as the law provides the panel must be chosen by at least three members of the county court. The second error on which the reversal was based was that the state did not allow the defend ants a sufficient number of chal lenges. The eight were tried on a joint indictment, and the trial court upheld the state’s con tention that the eight defendants were only entitled to the legal number of challenges, twenty four, which would apply if one man was on trial. When Justice Craft concluded his opinion, a storm of applause broke out in the courtroom, hut was quickly stilled by Marshal Deeming and his deputies. The prisoners will be taken back to Union City and an effort will be made to secure their release on bail, pending a second trial of their cases. The decision comes within less than a year after the crime was committed. On the night of Oct. 19, 1908, Capt. Quentin Rankin and Col. R. Z. Taylor were ta ken from the hotel at Walnut Log, on the bank of Reelfoot lake, by the night-riders. The former was hanged and then shot to death, and the latter escaped by almost a miracle. No matter how much money a man may have he does not like to be defrauded. If he buys a coat he wants the cloth to be just what the merchant says it is; if he buys a barrel of apples he is indignant if he discovers that the big apples have been put in the ends of the barrel and small or unsound ones be tween, and he decides not to •leal again with the man from whom he bought them. No man wins permanent sueess who does not deal fairly with his custom ers.

TAX CONFERENCE May be Called to Devise New System of Tax Returns Atlanta, Ga., July 3.—A strong movement is on fobt to call a tax conference in the Fall or Winter to devise a new system of tax re turns. The following resolution, by Dr. L. G. Hardeman, of Jack son, has been introduced in the House and is now pending in that body. “Whereas, the burden of taxa tion in the State of Georgia is unequally distributed against the property in the State; and “Whereas, it is the intention of the Constitution of the State that the burden shall be equally distributed against all property ; and, “Whereas, our present system of taxation and all tax returns are inadequate, confusing and unjust; and “Whereas, our Constitution provides that the taxation shall be uniform as well as ad volorem therefore; be it, , “Resolved, that we request the Governor of the State of Georgia to call a tax conference not la ter than December 15,' for the purpose of considering the aclvisa bility of revising the tax sys tem in Georgia and providing a plain by which we may secure proper returns of all property of the State so as each species will bear its proportional burden of the taxes of the state. “Resolved, further, that if ths proper returns of all species of property of the State was justly made, the present tax rate would bring an abundance of revenue to bear all the burden of taxation now placed upon the state and not reach the limit of the constitution. The tax conference plani s said to be considered with favor by Governor Brown. Should it go through he will probably have the ordinaries of the various coun ties name two or more delegates to the conference from their re spective counties. Mr. and Mrs. J. C.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is ty constitution al remedies.

When this tube is inflamed you have a rum bling sound, or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf ness is the result, and unless the in flamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condi tion, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an Inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Beasley, of Lee County, has in troduced in the House of Rep resentatives a bill to abolish the office of county treasurer in the various counties of the state. Mr. Beasley has introduced a companion bill providing for the establishment of county deposi tories, to be appointed by the or dinary or county commissioners, and which will have charge of all the county funds which now pass through the hands of the county treasurer. County treasurers are now paid on an average of $2,000 per year which amr unts approximate ly to $292,000 and acording to Mr. Beasley, this vast sum can be saved the state by eliminat ing the office. Discussing his, bills, Mr. Beasley said: “The county treasurer’s of fice is an office that can easily and -often is, almost entirely at tended to. iyitli the exception of fees eonncctect't+’fXewith, by loea banks, which are with county deposits. The questiolT then, is why not abolish the of fice? Let the depository banks transact the business for these de positories, pay interest on bal ances and cut out the fees en tirely. Averaging great and small counties in the state as paying for an obsolete office an average of $2,000 per county, we have for the 146 counties the vast sum of $292,000 per year that might be saved. This would build many miles of good roads or ed ucate many bright minds in the public schools.” The bill providing for the abo lition of the office of county treasurer is an amendment to the constitution and in order to become effective it must be pass ed by two-thirds ’vote of both branches of the General Assem bly and then ratified by the peo ple at she polls.

In Australia are to be found the largest, heaviest and most peculiar nests in the world. These are the nests of the jungle fowl, so called, and are built in the form of great mounds, the average measurement in height being fifteen feet and the circumference 150 feet. The nests are erected in secluded, sheltered spots, and, as in the case of the small nests of birds, they are skill fully interwoven with leaves, grass and twigs and such other suitable material as the fowl may be able to procure. A similar system in the construction of nests is followed by the bush turkey, whose home is, however, more comprehensive in de sign. Its shape is pyramidal. It has been asserted by Australian nat uralists that the nests of the bush turkeys, which live in colonies, are so large that to move them requires the services of six or seven men.— Chicago Record-Herald. —4 The City of Ispahan. No city has a happier name than Ispahan —the “rendezvous.” When visited by the traveler Chardin in the early part of the eighteenth century it contained 173 mosques. 48 colleges, 1.800 caravansaries and 273 public baths. But the Afghans, the local vandals, who did not care for bathing, destroyed the aque ducts and slaughtered the bathers. In the matter of great public squares Ispahan ean easily outrival any European city. The Meydan. or great square, is a third of a mile in length and about half that in breadth. It was once encircled by a canal, bordered by fine plane trees, but these have long since vanished along with the canal.

M > CHILDREN LEARN HOW TO PREVENT CONSUMPTION Country Loses Millions Yearly in Wasted Education Over 2,500.1X10 of the 17,000,- OOi; school children enrolled in the United States have during the school year just c't sed, been systematically instructed concern ing the dangers of consumption and the methods for its cure and prevention, according to a statement issued by the National Association for the Stu dy and Prevention of Tubercu losis. Besides the 2,500.000 children thus regularly instructed in their National Association estimates that fully 1,000,000 have received instruction at the various tuberculosis exhibits held in all parts of the country or in separate clesses and organizations A number of investigations con ducted in various parts of the world show that a large percen tage of the children in the public schools have tuberculosis before they are eighteen. That a larger number of them do not die, is due to the fact that healthy chil dren are able to resist the attack of consumption germs. On account of the prevalence of the disease among children, the National As sociation considers their educa tion to be of prime importance. In Boston a special commission which recently investigated the subject, found that over 5,000 school children in that city alone had positive eases of tuberculosis In New York a recent study show ed over 25,000 tuberculosis chil dren in the schools. On the ba sis of these and others investiga tions, it is estimated by certain authorities that there are nearly 1,000,000 school children in the United States to-day, who will probably die of tuberculosis be fore they have reached the age of eighteen. This would mean that the public schools of the country are paying annually about $7,500,000 for the educa tion of children who will die before they reach the age of eighteen. At least one-half of this sickness, and possibly three fourths of it, could be prevented if the municipal and state gov ernments would adopt better and more hygienic methods of con trolling and teaching the chil dren, and if the public in gener al was alive to the need for tuber culosis prevention. The National Association de clares that the best way to wipe out consumption among children is to educate both them and their parents so that they will know that tuberculosis is a communica ble disease, that it can be cured and that it must be prevented.
