Senator Jennings believes the railroads
are making a serious mistake In enjoining
the county treasurers from collecting their
taxes. "The move will certainly react
agalnBt the roads," he said, "for the people
have to pay their taxes and so should tha
railroads. They may be able to tie up the
money for a while, but in my opinion they
can never beat the case."
Douglas Spends Mark for gcboola.
Chief Clerk Harnley of the office of the
state superintendent is compiling statis
tics for the biennial report of that de

time, according to tha report of the county
superintendent, has 42,958. At the close
of the school year Douglas county had
expended for school purposes for the year
1750,301.10. Last year there was expended
In all the districts of the state M. 517,2-9.44,
or there was spent in Douglas county 16

MORE FIRING -IS HEAR AT ZEIGLER
Report la that Militiamen at the
romping Station Took Part
in Ihe Shooting; Last
Night.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 2. A long distance tele
phone message from a Post Dispatch staff
correspondent at Duquoln, 111., says that
the witnesses who appeared before the
Perry county grand Jury and secured the
Indictment agalnnt Joseph Leiter and At
torney Piatt for bringing armed guards
into the state for service at the mining
town of Zeigler, have been examined by
the Franklin county grand Jury. Zeigler

Firing was beard again last night In the
vicinity of Zeigler. This continued about
an hour and It Is reported that the militia
men on guard at the pumping Btatlon where
the firing was heard took part.
Report from Zeigler.
DUQUOIN, ill., Dee. 2. Guards at the
Dyle block house, half way between the
town of Zeigler and the pumping station,
which are over two miles apart, were
driven to cover shortly after midnight by
an attack from the woods, In which about
fifty shots were fired. An attack wai alsj
made on the pumping station, which was
answered promptly by the guards and
deputy marshals guarding the plant. The
attacking parties seemed to have centered
their forces directly on the pumping sta
tion. It Is from this plant that all the
power which operates the Zeigler mines
la obtained and If the attackers should
succeed In destroying this it would shut
the mines down completely.
In the town of Zeigler proper the nljht
was exceedingly quiet. The first time elnce
the strike began newspaper correspondents
were permitted to remain In the town over
night. Box car No. 3361, which Is really
the Zeigler railway station, sheLered them
during the night.
Shortly after the fighting began at the
pumping station a squad of toldleis was
sent from Zeigler and by the aid of a
searchlight beat the brush around the
plant, but located no one. At one time
during the night the searchlight mi. n sail
he had spotted aomo men at the "en si
roads" and soldiers were sent there, but
no shots were fired. Ten machine gum ar ,
now ready for action in Ihe town of ,

HAD TO HIDE IT " ,
A mother wrote us recently ;
that she had to keep Scott's
Emulsion under lock and key !
her children used to drink
it whenever her back wai .
turned. Strange that children
should like something that U
so good for them. It's usu
ally the other way. Scott's
Emulsion makes children
comfortable, makes them fat
and rosy-checked. Perhaps
that's irvhy they like it so
much they know it makes
them feel good.
We'll mss yae a MunpU, has
