Despite the repeated warnings of the bailiff , that', "gentlemen and -others must cut out the smoking In the court room," the panltor's evidence today testified that great crowds In the Rhea county courtroom used tobacco free ly. Packs of cigarettes and cigar remains were taken out and disposed of. For the convenience of tobacco chewers, the court room was strewn with cuspidors.
