th Ivnchinir case which was removed
from Anson to Union county last sum

the State. Judge Shaw quashed the
bill tf. indictment upon, the ground that
there was no such crime defined in the
revisal as lynching and that while un
der the original law of 1893 this case
might have been removed, yet under
the law as it now exists in the new re
vival of 1905 the Supreme Court of
Union county could have no jurisdic
tion. Judge Shaw's mling is reversed
bv a majority of the court The opinion
of the court is written by the Chief
Justice and concurring opinions by J ur-
tices Walker and Connor.
The court holds that section 3,233 of
the revisal is sufficiently connected with
section 3 698 to give the court of Union
county jurisdiction over the offence
named in 3C9. Much is said in the ton-

CURED IN ONE WEEK BY
CUTICUR A REMEDIES
"When my little girl baby was on,
week old she had a skin disease. A ,
thin skin formed over her body and
under it was watery blood, and when
she was washed it would burst and
break. She was in that condition' for
weeks, and I tried everything I could
think of, but nothing did her any good.
When she was three months old I took
her to San Antonio to see a doctor, but
the doctor we wanted to see was not
at home, so my sister gave me cake of
Cuticura Soap and halt a box of Cuti
cura Ointment, and told me to use
them, which I did in time. I used
them three times, and the humor began
to fade, and in one week she was souna .
and well, and it has never returned
since. I think every mother should keep
the Cuticura Remedies in tne nous.
Yours trulv. Mrs. H. Aaron, Benton.
Texas, July 3, 1905."
WEEPING ECZEMA
"I have used the Cuticura Remecbta
for some years past. The Cuticura
Soap we are never without, and the '
Ointment is the finest in the world.
It has done wonders in curing my uttl
