BAUKN1GHT, LA, S. C. SAYS THE CITY COURTS CAN'T Try Tigers-Judge Aldrich Heilders Far-ltcaching Decision. (Columbia State Special.) Anderson, Sept. 25.-An appeal case from the mayor's court, involv ing an important question of juris diction, wa? decided before Judge Aldrich la the sessions court to-day. The appeal was from a decision of the mayor Imposing a fine of 9100 or 30 days for selling whiskey. Ap pellant's counsel took thc position that the mayor's court had no Juris? diction to try a defendant charged with selling liquor In the same juris diction with the mngist't.te; that the mayor had only concurrent jurisdic tion wi*h the magistrate and that, as the statutes gave a magistrate no jurisdiction to try such cases the mayor was bound also by the same statutory limitation. The general statutes give the mayor ol" tho city the same powers as a magistrate, and it was argued by counsel for the defense that a city council could not extend hy ordinance the jurisdiction defined by tho Legislature. The decision of Judge Aldric h, in case lt is sustained by the Supreme Court, will be of the most far-reach ing cons?quence?, lt might seriously hamper the enforcement of thc> liquor law in every town and city in the Slate. All that the police depart ment of a city could do would lie to make arrests and have a wai.'ant is sued hy a magistrate. The magis trate would then, if upon a prelimi nary hearing the evidence warranted lt, send the case up to the sessions court for trial. The decision has attracted a great deal of interest here. The city will appeal to the Supreme Court, and a decision of that tribunal will be awaited with general Interest over the State. New Trial for Webb Simmons. Judge Aldrich to-day granted a new trial for Webb Simmons, the young white man under sentence for the murder of United States Deputy McAdams last February. Simmons was sentenced by Judge Shlpp In May to hang July 23. The grounds on which a now trial was granted was an atlidavit of J. il. Hardin, a wcdl known young farmer, to the effect that P. E. Norris, a member of the jury, told him that Simmons should hang, and that If he, Norris, was drawn on the jury he would hang Simmons. In granting the new trial Judge Aldrich recommended to Solicitor Bonham that a warrant be Issued for the arrest of Norris, charging dm With perjury, and that Mr. Bagnall, attorney for Simmons, be made a witness to p?'ove the charge. Norris emphatically denies the charge. A Sprained-Ankle. As usually treated a sprained an kle will disable the injured person for a month or more, but by apply ing Chamberlain's Liniment and ob serving thc directions with each bot tle faithfully, a euro maty, in most cases, be effected In less than one week's Hmo.
