Mr. Boykin, In the trial of the suit claimed that he was severely Injured about a year and. a half ago at Ma gee by a train of cars .being backed violently against a caboose that was on a siding and by the impact of which he received severe Injuries. Mr. Boykin claimed that he suffered great pain in the small of his back immedi ately after the jolt and ever since. Two local medical experts were in troduced who testified that tn many cases where railroad suits were brought that the pain was simply im agination, and always disappeared as soon as the suit was settled in their favor. In other words, the decision of the suit acted as an antidote to im aginary pain.

V ADMISSION 5 CEx\ M this as a general rule and they thought the plaintiff in this case might be an exception as he was suffering from Bright's disease, which would produce real pain. The authority that was quoted to sustain this theory of imaginary pain and the remedy therefor, was the fam ous Dr. Osier, whose greatest notorie ty was acquired by making the sugges tion that the government ought to pro vide for easy and painless death for old and Infirm people; such as those to whom life had become a burden by reason of their helpless condition, and also that babies born In the world witli an infirmity should he legally put to death. Dr. Osier as an authority, and his cure for pain, may cut a considerable figure in court in the future, provided laymen will accept the teachings of the man as an authority. But he advances ideas that are contrary to the teach ing of both humane and divine laws. noon of jajoftg StjOimer 4« V is some worth while. DRY BANQUET AT COLUMBIA of I Daily NewB Special.

Cox, agent for the Quit and Ship Island Railroad Company at tblB place, father of the young man who was reported from Collins as having attempted sui cide, states that It is a mistake. The young man had been suffering from an injury to his kite? 1 , caused by strik ing it with the sharp edge of a hatchet some three years ago, and which has troubled him ever since. One year ago last January he submitted to an oper ation, which did not permanently re lieve the trouble, and recently he went out in the country and went to work on a farm temporarily,, which caused his leg to pain him at times very se verely, and to ease this pain he took some laudanum, and got more of the drug than he should have taken. The note found on the table had nothing to do with any love affair. Mr. Cox has just returned from a visit to his son. At a recent meeting of the direc tors of the Smith County Bank, of this place, C. R. Stringer was elected cash ier to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of W. C. Smith.
