THE TOPEKA PLAINDEALER VOLUME XIII. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION Meeting at First Baptist Church Shows Marked Progress---Topeka Enthusiastic in Her Welcome to the Baptists. the K. of Lapus State Conven verion and W. of Foreign Mission board meet with the First African Baptist chan. This is Quincy streets, the Rev. G. W. Henry, pastor. This is one of the largest and finest churches in the state. The Women's Foreign Mission Board convened Tuesday morning Mrs Emma Gaines, president and Mrs. E Arlington Wilson secretary. The committee labored hard to complete their work within two days and their method of transacting business was simply fine. They raised over five hundred dollars to carry on the work, besides several hundred dollars during the year They have placed on foot a move to pay off the mortgage on the Old Folks' home at Lawrence and success is bound to crown their efforts. The same officers were re-elected for the ensuing year, thus marking the close of a year's work that has been crowned with success in every particular. THE STATE CONVENTION The convention proper opened Thursday morning, the Rev. E. Arlington Wilson, president and John E. Lewis, sec tary. The convention was good from start to brush—one of the best since its organization. There were over two hundred and fifty delegates present several distinguished men and women were present. Rev. Jerrigan, Oklahoma, Boyd and Griggs of Nashville, Hughes of Colorado, Britt, the gospel singer, of Louisville, Bacote, of Kansas City and Mrs. Merchant, 1854, statistic. All of these visit re either proached or honored to the large, appreciative audiences which filled the church every evening. Rev Britt is one of the greatest singers in America and the world should have an opportunity to hear him. Rev Jernigan preached an inspirational sermon. He is one of the foremost men of his race and is doing much to hold the tort in Oslo. The welcome address were delivered by Rv. I C Nicholson, Prof. William R. Carter and Dr Gordon. Responses were made by Bed. W. H. Hill, Lawrence and Hon. A. Shackelford, of Kate City. Beautiful salos were rendered by Mrs Electro Page Perry, Mrs J. W. Gordon and Miss Isarelli Bolter. Mr. Corvine Patterson, the man who carries the sack for the convention, led all the song services. He has but few equals if any in that line. Rev A. Fairfax, of Parsons, is still in the seventh of his manhood, and his reply to Rev. Gordon of the white Baptist church was very timely. The Rev. Gordon spoke as if he was not familiar with the leading ministers of the Negroace, especially the old timers. Rev. Fairfax is an old timer—one who has fitted himself for the battle of life. He served in the Kansas legislature and many of the laws on the statute books today were introduced by him. Rev. Fairfax said if the ministers of both races would do their duty there would be no lynching and burning nor would there be so many different churches. if all would live up to the teachings of the Saviour and preach straight doctrine to their congregation by telling them to be truthful and firm in the religion of Jesus Christ and everybody would be happier. Go preach that to your white brothren that they may know the right way to receive, and how to treat their brother in black. After he had finished, Rev. Gordon (white) wrote to his brother and said, "this man certainly is a preacher and I am certainly glad to have heard him." He then asked to be examined, and he started to leave, Rev. M'Neal of Kansas City, Kirt asked him to leave this preacher to talk to his congregation. The audience went wild and Rev. Gordon banished, but made an excuse that all of the engagements were taken or he would invite Rev. Paitfax to preach in his church. Everyone who believes he was sincere write us a letter The address of the president, Rev E. Arlington Wilson, was one of the most instructive and interesting documents ever delivered before that body, an extract from which will appear in these columns next week. On Friday Prof. William R Carter invited the convention to be the guests of the Topeka Industrial Institute at dinner and supper. The invitation was accepted, and the Professor arranged for special street car service and conveyance for the visitors--over two hundred in number. Dinner was served immediately upon their arrival, over eighty being sent at one time in the girls' dormitory where all feated sumptiously on the following menu prepared by the domestic science department under the direction of Mrs. Penny Mason. The matron took great pride in showing the visitors through the girls' department. The rooms were neat, clean and well kept. After dinner the convention convened for business in the chapel. Songs, prayer and short talks were the features of the meeting. The committees consumed the balance of the time until 5:30 when the bell sounded the supper hour. A special meal was prepared by the students under the direction of their instructor. A resolution of thanks was tendered Prof. Carter, faculty and students for their hospitality. One of the delegates remarked that this was the first free dinner ever served by a colored in Kansas. This school has grown from one seven room store building to five commodious buildings one of which is under course of erection by W. W. Buckner. The delegates raised two thousand dollars at the session and about eight thousand during the year, this of course includes the district associations and all of the branch departments such as the Sunday School Convention, Women's Mission Board, etc. Resolutions were passed thanking Rev. Henry and his congregation and also Shiloh and her minister for the care and fine treatment extended the visitors. They also thanked the citizens of Topeka for their hospitality and courteous treatment. They adjourned to finish in Lawrence, where they will visit the Old Folks' home. They chartered a special coach on the U. P. and departed Monday morning at no'clock. The home is a beautiful place two miles west of Lawrence where the delegation took dinner. Prof. W. T. Vernon was orator of the day and was given mrrked attention throughout his timely and highly instructive remarks. Short addresses were made by Rev. Sutton E. Griggs, the well known and popular author, Rev. Boyd of the publishing house, Nashville, Tenn. Mrs. Liston, the manager, has TOPEKA, KANSAS, FRIDAY MORNING, OCT.13, 1911 GUYER VS. TAGGART! The Second District Congressional Fight is Centering Around Colored Voters. Stubbs Special Agents Arrest Negroes and Endeavor to Prejudice Whites Against Taggart. THE FAMILY OF THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN VOLUMS OF TIG STUBB-GUYER MACHINE. The are all hard working people. The poor, theumatic old woman standing in the rear was nearly burned to death in her early life. She was born in bondage and has spent a life of labor,privation and freezing poverty. All of these people went to the polls three times in primaries and three times in elections to help make U.S. Guyer mayor. Now, Governor Stubbs VIEWERS OF THE STUD through his secret agents has caused them to be put in jail or help elect Guyer to Congress Stubbs idea is to put Mr. Maggart, county attorney, in bad with the white people, for not putting these poor creatures in jail sooner Last April they went to the polls and voted for Guyer in his election for mayor. Now they are put in jail in a political campaign to help elect Guyer to home to splendid shape and the old folks are well feel, housed and clothes, consequently they are happy. The session was concluded at the Warren Street Baptist church Rev Jackson, pastor. At present the church is undergoing repairs and when completed will be one of the most in the state. A few of the prominent ministers who attended were Rev Jackson, and Ramesy Gordon Banks, Hillman, Eiffel, Rogers, Cox, Fishback brothers and Jefferson. Following is one of the many resolutions passed: Whereas, Reva, D B Jackson and A K Richardson have been called to answer certain charges made by them against the convention and whereas the committee having taken the matter under adjournment re- port as follows: That Reva D B Jackson and his congress. It is remarkable that the special agents of Governor Stubbs found seven colored people and only two white people breaking the law in Wyandotte county These women were arrested as a rebuke to the Wyandotte county officers for not having them in jail sooner. The name of Governor Stubbs is so obnoxious to the people of Wyandotte county that Mr Guyer's campaign committee are telling BR--GUYER MACHINE. e colored; people that if Joseph Taggart, the Democratic nominee for congress, is elected and there is a vacancy in the office of county attorney, that the governor will appoint his successor, who will make it a burden for the colored people of the county. This is a lie. If Mr. Taggart is elected, his successor will be appointed by Judge Fischer and Judge Hutchings of the District court. This is the law. much be received into membership of this convention, he having given a satisfactory explanation on earning the charge. We further recommend that Rev J H Richardson be NO' received into membership. He having refused to give satisfaction concerning the charge. W H Surratt, Cm' Negroes Surprise in Great National Game. The Blues, the Kansas City professional league team, which recently won the second place for the American association pennant, and the Kansas City, Kansas, Giants, champion Negro baseball team of Missouri Valley, played a series of three games but Sunday and Mon. day, Oct. 4 and 9. The Giants showed no yellow streak, but played a brilliant game. The first game was ten innings the score being 11 to 2 in favor of the Blues, and was won by a raw decision of the unpure. Pitcher H. Norman, a Toreka boy, only allowed 5 hits and the Negro outbatted those professionals at every turn. The second game was called on account of darkness, the score being 0 to 0. The Giants pitcher, McNair, allowed only one hit to be made out of an outing the whole game. The third game resulted in a victory for the Blues, score 8 to 2. In this game the Negro outspit the league men and their pitcher, McNair, only allowed six safe hits, while the Blue's professional allowed the Giants to secure 9 safe hits. The attendance was good, the excitement intense, and the colored boys opened the eyes of the white doubters of the Negro race. In stealing bases and double plays the Giants did fine work. Jack Johnson and Tobe Smith, captain and manager, of the Giants, deserve great credit for the wonderfull performance of these colored boys. Their spirit is yet to reach the top, and all Kansas City, white and black, are now signring, if they could make such a showina with such limited facilities for training and practice as they have had, what would they have done if they had training and experience with the Blues? They have simply astounded the white fans. The Plaindealer again repeats, give the Negro only half a chance and if he don't surprise the world with his ability he certainly will surprise us. The result greater respect and higher estimate for every Negro, not only in Kansas City but in other cities that are members of the American association. Let the Negro do his best on every occasion in every line of endeavor, pleasure, business, conduct or what not. Go to the top.

Aside from using the gasoline engine for pumping water the farmer must consider that it can be harnessed to a hose, with which he may sprinkle the lawn, flower beds, truck patch and garden, especially in case the weather turns extremely dry and hot. One sprinkling at a critical period might save a whole season's work from being thrown away. Its use as a sprayer for destroying pests in the poultry house can readily be seen, and as it is portable it can be used in applying fly repellent to livestock, spraying the potato patch and orchard trees. It can also be used to lay the disagreeable dust in the lots near the house and barns. With the horse attachment the pump engine can be used in cleaning out filthy hog troughs and foul water tanks, and the muddy wagon and automobile can be more thoroughly and quickly cleaned off by it than by any other method, while the overworked housewife will find it a great labor surer, especially in scalding out the milk and cream cans after using it for churning butter. A BIRD OF A ROOSTER. Owner Refused $2,000 For Item at Modern Roses Garden Shop Madison Square Garden Show. Some idea of the value of a well bred bird is derived from the fact that after exhibiting the champion Burred Plymouth Rock made at the Madison Square Garden show Mr. Bright, the owner, refused an offer of $2000 for him. Questioned as to the truth of this report by the Country Gentleman, Mr. Bright said: "I was offered that sum sure enough and was rather stattled myself—so much so that I was tempted to ask the one who made it with what kind of money he intended to pay me. I knew that it had taken me thirty years to produce this bird and that if I wished to continue to improve my stock I could not afford to part with him, so I refused the offer. "I may have been foolish and I may not. At any rate, in eighteen months we sold $3,000 worth of birds and eggs produced by the yard of which this male was the head." Nina males, of which this one was the sire, sold for $100 each, and the eggs sold for $25 for thirteen. TWO WHEEL FODDER RACK. Easily Made at Home and Can Be Handled by One Man and Horse. Here is a rack that is used for hauling corn fodder, straw and many other things. Only two wheels are used. These may be mower wheels.

Fertilizer of equal value if bought on the market will cost you $30 or more a ton. For the easier gathering and handling of this fertilizer a platform of boards should be placed under the roosts. This platform should be scraped clean at least twice a week. Orchard and Garden. Unleached wood ash is sown and cast in the orchard will prove to be thick. Those who have large apple orchards are fortunate if they have evaporators for drying wood in apples. This is a good way to utilize insatiable fruit and thus add to the profits of the orchard. The garden tea bushes are animal less sons on intensive farming. In it high fertility and good cultivation make a small area produce large crops. Why not adopt this system in local crops? Enlance the pasture, reduce the food and add to your yields.

Where are the White Ministers? By Their Silence, They Condone This Most Inhuman and Brutal of all Murders. Negroes, Check This Matter up to President Taft! The late Senator John J. Ingalls once said: "The Bible and hymn book are all well enough; what the African race needs is another Toussiant L'Overture with the blood stained banner of revolution and the torch and sword." This state of affairs has become unbearable, and the black man must learn to give a white man's measure in everything. The law is blind in dealing with blacks, hence they must protect themselves. No Trouble to Identify Murderers The picture shows the brutes with their victim before his body was burned. They posed especially for this photograph and it is no trouble to identify any of them, yet officials in Oklahoma say they cannot find a single soul that was connected with the inhuman affair. What is the matter with Governor Cruse and the thousands of white hypocrites who masquerade as Christians? What is left for the blacks to do but FIGHT rather than be slaughtered like Dogs? PRESIDENT TAFT preaching "World's Peace" from the lecture platform with such disgraceful scenes in his very door-yard; it looks to our foreign brothers as though he ought to first secure peace at home. Since the state of Oklahoma will not act, it is the duty of the President and the national government to act, and the Negroes throughout the nation are watching their every move with deep interest.

A stranger in a strange land, his supposed victim viewed the body and there was nothing left for her to do but claim the mob had the right man. Lashed to a board and photographed, they piled fagots around him and danced in drunken dismay around the burning body of their victim. Where are the white ministers and Christian workers who are bent on Christianizing the heathen Chinese? They are quiet as clams and by their silence condone the action of these semi-savages.

Members of the Association: Whereas, following a general custom, the Executive Board of the Western Negro Press Association has met in executive session and set apart Thursday, November 30th and Friday, December 1st, 1911, for holding the fifteenth annual convention of the Western Negro Press Association to meet in Topeka, Kansas. Therefore, by virtue of the official power vested in me, and in keeping with the decree of the Executive Board, I hereby call the fifteenth annual convention of the association to meet in regular session at the time and place above named. All members of the association are particularly urged to be present either in person or by proxy and a cordial invitation is hereby extended to all editors, managers, reporters, correspondents, publishers and owners of newspapers and co-workers who are not members. Colored newspapers have become to be very important factors in the social, industrial, economical and political life of America, and it will be well for all newspaper men who can meet at this convention to discuss the best means of employing this great power for the benefit of the race and the country at large. There is no greater responsibility than that which rests upon the shoulders of newspaper men; because they are the moulders of public opinion. We propose to learn at this convention how best to shape this opinion for the good of the masses as well as the classes. A very interesting program has been arranged for this occasion and it will be of much advantage to be present. Witness my hand and seal this 2nd day of October, 1911. A. J. SMITHERMAN. Pres. W. N. P.

Working or thinking without system enfeebles the mind and leaves the mental faculties in a clogged condition, so that they do not work sharply. The mind must be kept clear and clean for the present problem, so that it may seize and grasp with all its might the thing it is attempting to accomplish. There is only one best way to learn how to act. That way is the way of system. Systematize your thoughts, your energies, your abilities. Learn early in life to do this, and it will prove the master habit that will success. Systemless men are always surprised that the heads of great enterprises can find so much time for social life, for hobbies, for travel. They cannot understand it at all. They do not realize that a man of great organizing ability, with a splendid system, can do more effective business in a single hour at his office than a systemless man can accomplish in twelve. It is not the number of hours, but the effectiveness of the system, that tells. One of the advantages of a college course is that it trains the mind to work by system. Whether he likes to or not, the student is forced to concentrate his mind when the time comes, no matter what his mood or how he feels. Four years of training in this should put the mind into working order. It should tune the intellect so that all the strings will be in harmony. A good college education should train the mind to think concisely, deeply, effectively at will — Orlison Swett Marden in Success Magazine. ANIMALS IN A FRENZY. There's Danger Afoot When Captive Wild Beauty "Go Bad." What those who have charge of wild animals in captivity, and especially trainers, dread most among the large beasts is that inexplicable change of temperament on the part of the animal known in the pasture of the menagette as "going bad." Lions are likely to go bad about the tenth year of life; tigers, two or three years earlier. The male tiger is the dread of the profession when he reaches this condition, because he is more likely to go into a frenzy without warning, and once gone bad nothing will satisfy him but murder. He will leap for any man within reach, and when once his teeth are on the bone nothing but the will make him relinquish it, and not always that. This "going bad" may come in the nature of a sudden attack or it may develop slowly and be counteracted if taken in time. An old trainer can usually detect the symptoms of this curious aliment. It seems to be in the nature of a disease, and other animals recognize it and shun the affected one. When its progress is apparent the danger is not great. All that is required then is a level head and the wisdom to refrain from further interference with the animal. Sometimes this bad temper will last but a short time, and again it will become the permanent condition of the animal. In that case he is sent to the lonely age to spend the rest of his life in comparative obscurity, disturbed more by the passing crowd and his daily meals. Pursson's Weekly Respect of Dead Royalty. Respect of Deed Royalty. Dear royalty was treated with respect at Holyrood a century ago. K. Sharp, the trump of Scott, writing to Robert C. Cinders in 1827 recounted some of his experiences during his wanderings among the tombs in Holyrood. I remember many fragments of the royal bodies shown in the chapel of Holyrood House one entire, saving the hand. I remember a visit to the chapel after the royal vault had been closed. Oh, man! said the female in charge of you had numbness while some I had had show of wound in this place—king James, the father's sister shoulder and Lord Cinders, though tombs, and a guide lot to the land of Builhorn back. I loved them. Practical. "My god woman," said the social reformer "your children seem to be slightly obsessed. Have you are clearly defined enough about bringing up your little ones by scientific methods?" "No, I haven't, nothing," answered the much tried mother as she briskly grappled with plaining bird in one hand and her slipper in the other.

Samuel L. Clemens Quoted as Saying He Inherited the Name. The familiar story of the origin of Samuel L. Clemens' use of the name Mark Twain is now declared to be incorrect. It pictures Clemens, Mississippi river pilot, listening to the men heaving the lead at the bow of a river boat and singing out, "Ily the mark, three; by the mark, twain." Tablenul Clemens smites his brow and snoil-quotes, "There is my nom de plume." It is true that the name originated with the picturesque cry of the man with the lead, but a man other than Mr. Clemens first discovered the picturesqueness. That man was Captain Isaiah Sellers, who furnished rlrer news for the New Orleans Picayune. To Professor William Lyon Phelps of Yale Mr. Clemens confessed that it was from Sellers he got the name Professor Phelps' story is quoted in Professor Henderson's "Mark Twain." According to this book, Mr. Clemens said to Professor Phelps: "Captain Sellers used to sign his articles in the Picayune 'Mark Twain.' He died in 1803. I liked the name—and stole it. I think I have done him no wrong, for I seem to have made this name somewhat generally known." Professor Henderson records a number of interesting incidents connected with the use of this name. For awhile, when he was a junior in Nevada, Mr. Clemens sent to the Virginia City Enterprise humorous letters signed not "Mark Twain," but "Jush." When he became a regular reporter on that paper and reported the legislature he signed his reports "Mark Twain" When questioned as to his use of this name Mr. Clemens declared: "I chose my pseudonym because to most persons it had no meaning and also because it was short. I was a reporter in the legislature and wished to save the legislature time. It was much shorter to say in their debates 'Mark Twain' than to say 'The unprincipled and lying parliamentary reporter of the Territorial Enterprise.' Mr. Clements made the name known on the Patricia const, but the world at large did not hear it for years after the "Jumping Frog," is printed in hundreds of exchanges without credit, had jumped into such motority as is rarely accorded well manuered frogs. In fact, its first use in any eastern magazine was a flujo Mr. Chinens made a great scoop on the Hormet disaster when he was writing up the Hawaiian Islands in 1860, says Professor Henderson. His account of the disaster Mark sent to Harper's Magazine, where it appeared in December, 1864, but, alas, it was not as "Mark Twain," not as a drawing, lovable river pilot sort of person that the world behold the new author, for he had not written his pseudonym plainly on his copy, and Harper's cheerfully introduced him to fame as "Mike Swain." Not Purely Curiosity. Among the passengers in one of the cars of a train running between Springfield and Boston was a nervous little old man who extended a keen interest in a shilster looking person who took a seat beside him. "How do you do?" said the nervous little old man to the shilster looking person. "Now what might your name be? Do you live in the town or beyond? "What business is it of yours where I live or who I am?" prowled the other. "Sit's that speaking. It isn't rare of my business, admitted the old gentle man mildly, but it's just like the I've got a cousin in this part of the state that I've never seen, and I've no ways thought I might come upon him some time just by asking for their name and so on." Huntley. The Hourglass Instead of being obsolete and simply an interesting tool the hourglass in various forms is a twofold century necessity. For such purposes as timing, hardening and tempering boards in twist drill manufacture, where seconds or minutes must be ganged accurately, nothing serves like the hourglass with the right amount of sand.

Some day, some place, some one may make as good flour as "H. H." (Blackney's Highest) hard wheat flour, but we doubt it. It stands in a class by itself and is indored by cooks, bakers, and housewives all throughout the West. It is wholesome, pure, sweet and invigorating, being manufactured from carefully selected hardw heat, every grain in sound, as one of Uncle Sam's gold certificates. "H. H." flour has stood every test and makes delicious rolls, cakes, plies or any kind of pastry, and housewives who guard the health of their children are strong in praising it for its health giving qualities and purity. "H. H." flour is manufactured by the Topeka Milling Company and is shipped to all parts of the world. It is one of the concerns that is doing much to advertise Topeka and the rich products of the great State of Kansas. It is one of the prides of the State, and the same of their products is fast becoming a household word in every city and hamlet in the State. The Plains dealer personally indoles the products of this concern, having given them a thorough test and know whereof we speak. Mr. Geo. W. Hackney, secretary of this concern, is one of the most wide awake, progressive and business men of the state, and has done much to place the Topka Milling Company among the best of its kind to be found anywhere. His strong personality, keen business insight and open friendly manner make people like him on sight and take pleasure in doing business with him. He has the same cordial greeting for a colored man as he does for a white and be measures all men by moral worth and true character, and be he black or white if he is a gentleman Ma.

The box form for the inside is then set upon this floor or bottom at an equal distance from the outside form on all four sides and the concrete for the walls placed and tamped down. At one end the wall is slightly lower in center to provide for an overflow, as shown. The fan's should be high enough so that when filled with water it will be within two or three inches of the top of milk can, and as the water is constantly changing, the milk can be sooled very rapidly. The cooler may also be built slightly larger to allow for ice to be packed around the cans when it is desired to hasten the cooling process. SILOS ENLARGE FARM. No Need to Increase Acreage to Increase Productiveness. A notable feature of this year's agriculture is the increase in silo building. One manufacturer states that he has sold over 4,000 silos, and no doubt all manufacturers have done a bigger business than ever before. The short age of hay has had a good deal to do with this, of course, but aside from that the silo has been steadily growing in favor for years. There is at present a marked tendency to utilize the silo for summer feeding. One acre of corn stored in a silo is the equivalent of several acres of pasture. It never dries up and is always ready to feed. More silos and smaller ones, allowing a part to stand until summer, will be the future policy of men who want to enlarge their farms without adding to their acreage. The silo will help to make more big little farms. It is a part of the policy of putting one farm on top of another that is usually called advanced farming or intensive agriculture.—National Stockman and Farmer. Paul of Sand Good Friends Always keep hands a painful of clean sand. Nothing is more useful about the house.

Try filling it with sand heated in a plie plate or shallow pot. The sand will retain the heat a long time, and for every practical purpose will be found as good as hot water. A farmer and a town man exchanged pieces for a week. "It was terrible." said the farmer afterward. "I couldn't sleep a wink on account of the street care, motorcycles and automobiles." "I'll never try that again," said the town man. "The roosters and the cows and the squealing pigs kept me awake every night." Poultry Pickings.

The demand for dressed fowls is rapidly increasing, and poultry rulers are finding it profitable to prepare their fowls for the market. Help in the home has become quite a problem during recent years, and most city people prefer buying fowls already dressed. It is to the interest of the farmer to get the best prices for his fowls, and if the trade is willing to pay for it he is willing to deliver his birds dressed. Farm and Garden WASTE IN APPLE POMACE. Hand Presses In Ordinary Use Don't Get Out Half the Sugar. "Johnny, come along. You've been so bad I'm going to look you up in the cellar." "Why, ma, you wouldn't have any bad apples down cellar, would you?" "Certainly not." "Only good apples go down cellar, don't they?" "Of course." "Is it the good apples or the good cellar that makes the bad boy good?" Here ma's patience became exhausted and Johnny was not only busted down to darkness, but he got something that kept him warm down there for a long time. All of which leads up to the point that an apple cellar should be the tidiest and sweetest corner of the house. Nothing else should ever be stored in it. Its walls should at least be twenty inches thick, and it should have abundant windows to be kept open all summer to draft of air and kept on fierely free of any deay. There should be no moldy boards nor any smell of mildew; in other words, the air should be fit to live the. When the apples are stored the draft should be stopped, and when straddle cold site in you should shut the cellar light, and let it stay closed until May.

B Alwood of the United States department of agriculture. "Proximity 25 per cent of the total weight of apples went out in pomace, or from 1 to 5 per cent of the sugar. With the best power mills under a most efficient working system it is certain that practically 5 per cent of sugar is thrown out in the pomace. "There are something like 50000 bushels of apples worked up every crop year in New York state alone for byproducts. If we assume that 25 per cent of this fruit will be left as pomace we will have about 60000,000 pounds of pomace, which will contain 3000000 pounds of sugar or 1500 tons. But a collected for P&O indicate that this quantity of pomace is produced and that 5 per cent of this pomace is sugar. I am not able to tell how much of this pomegranate is wholly or partially lost nor can I tell precisely how to recover all the sugar it contains, as this investigation has just been begun but I want to emphasize this idea, that this 1,500 tons of sugar, if recovered would make 1,000,000 gallons of vinegar, which would go a long way toward paying the expense of managing the or hard.

Some of the Greatest Blindfolded Players of the Pent. Playing at chess without seeing the board is a much older accomplishment than is generally known even among chess players. Birecon, an Italian, as early as 1320 played three games at once, looking at one board, but not at the other two. His three competitors were skilled in the game, but he won two games and made a draw of the third Ituv Lonez, whose name has been given to an opening: Mangiolini, Terone Medrano, Leonard da Culte, Paolo Boli, Nalvia and others who lived between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries were able to play the game without seeing the board. Father Saccheri of Pavia only in the eighteenth century played three games at once against three players without seeing any of the boards. It can be said that Philidor the great receiver of the game up to this time, is well known in England and in Hawaii. He is also known as the drawing man. His surprising in- tention is all the thing of an actor by keeping up his conversation all the while. Philidor's achievement is to the number of standalone games has been for us today by Paul Morphy, Paulson, Bill Klurge and several of their successors. But Philidor, laxely Iron human that he was, still holds the palm as a constant object and player at the same time. Phillidor was the assumed name of François Andre Dunkan, born at Droux in 1751. He was educated as a court musician for Louis XIV. He composed music to Dryden's "Alexander's Feast" and to many operas, all long since forgotten. Dunkan's fame does not live in music, but as Phillidor, the chess player. As a chess player he visited Holland, Germany and England. In 1749, while in England, he published his "Analysis of Chess" a work which has taken its place among the classics of the game. He died in England Aug 81, 1763. Exchange. HIS UNIQUE ANTIQUES. They Were Sold One by One, Yet the Sat Remained Intact. An old curiosity dealer of Paris recently found a new snare for the eternally guilleless amateur. He put in his window five dolls dressed in vaguely medieval clothes. Collector No. 1 came in and asked to buy one of them. The dealer could not divide the lots, as they were a valuable set, representing the five poses. After long persuasion the amateur at last carried one off at a very long price. Collector No. 2 followed. Could he have one of the dolls? "Out of the question, sir; a most valuable set, representing the four seasons." After more long persuasion and at a still longer price one of the dolls was sold. When amateur No. 3 called the three dolls were the three graces, it must valuable set, which could not be divided. By offering an enormous sum he carried off one of them. Amateur No. I called I and wanted to buy one of the two dolls. What was mon-sieur naturally proposing? The two dolls were Adam and Eve, sculptured and dressed by some forgotten medieval artist. The pair could not possibly be parted. The couple for eventually carried off Adam for a glimpse sum. Amateur No. 2 called a masked. How much for that outfit? Indently an old one of a set. "An old one of a set" seemed the dealer. "It is a unique piece. Does not mon-sieur perceive that it represents James S. the favorite of Charles VII." And the amateur seemed the unique piece for a fabulous amount - just for London Telegraph He Waa Observant.

In fact, I know I am sitting on the thin veil of a burning volcano!" THE MAGNETIC NEEDLE. It Is Quite Often Very Far From Being True to the Palm. "True as the needle to the pole," like many another popular saying, conveys a distinctly erroneous impression. In order to keep itself duly informed as to the unfaithfulness of the needle to the pole, or, technically, the "variation of the compass" from the true north, our government maintains a division of terrestrial magnification. Not only does the magnetic needle vary at different places, but the variation changes from year to year and even at different times in the day. On magnetic surveys charts those places which at a particular time have the same amount of variation are connected by what is known as an isogonale, or equal variation line. Through these points on the map in which there is no variation of the needle from the true north a line known as the second passes. Iron can modify the needle to cause the pain it causes of the pain. It can cause the pain to be felt more than the pain which makes equal temperatures, known as the third line. I leopard chars in the state to day and full of small errors in a new year. The famous Moon and Dawn line between Pennsylvania and Maryland, which was surveyed in the years 1633 to 1637, was run by the stars and not by the needle, a great place of foresight in that day. If it had been surveyed by the compass in 1801 it would have shown a deviation in some places of two miles, and had the line been run by uncorrected compass a hundred years later, in 1900, the variation would have reached nearly nineteen miles to the south and the rich coal fields of two Maryland counties would have been thrown into Pennsylvania. The discovery of the magnetic needle's shortcomings is believed to have been made during the voyage of Columbus. The disclosure constitutes a high tribute to the scientific perceptions of that day, even though it spread consternation among the ships' crews. - Harper's. PAGANINI HELPED HER. The Great Violinist Didn't Play the Miser on This Occasion. The following story places Paganul in a better light than this musical miser was accustomed to appear. And really one is led to wonder which is the true Paganul—the miser or the kind artist giving his talent to assist a poor servant girl. One morning the maid who waited on him in Paris came to him, weeping, and told how her lover had been conscripted and sent away to the war, and she, of course, was too poor to buy a substitute for him. Paganini resolved to aid the girl and took a unique way to do it. He procured a wooden shoe and so fashioned it that it could be strung up and played like aiddle. Then he advertised that he would give a cone cilt and play five pieces on the violin and five on a wooden shoe. Of course this strange announcement drew a good house. The violinist had given the girl tickets to the concert, and after it was over he went to her and pouring 2000 frames into her hip, he told her that she could now purchase a substitute for her sweetheart and with the mauler set up housekeeping. He also gave her the wooden shoe that had brought her such good fortune and told her to sell it. Of course this outus instrument brought her a good sum, which she added to the amount which was to bring her domestically happy - W Francis states in "Anne dates of great Mustangs" Wanted Regular Work A farm hand had worked in the field from dawn till darkness, doing the chores by lantern light.

It will with an eighty foot hydraulic press have been able to recover four ounces of life from fifty pounds of it, double the quantity I could recover with the hand knives, and yet fit it in the pulp or 12 percent of the juice says Proof. W B Alwood of the United States department of agriculture. *Practically 25 per cent of the total weight of apples went out in pomace, or from 1 to 8 per cent of the sugar. With the best power mills under a most efficient working system it is certain that principally 5 per cent of sugar is thrown out in the pomace. "There are something like 5,000,000 bushels of apples worked up every crop year in New York state alone for byproducts. If we assume that 25 per cent of this fruit will be left as pomace we will have about 60,000,000 pounds of pomace, which will contain 3,000,000 pounds of sugar, or 1,500 tons. Data collected for 1909 indicate that this quantity of pomace is produced and that 5 per cent of this pomace is sugar. "I am not able to tell how much of this pomace is wholly or partially lost, nor can I tell precisely how to recover all the sugar it contains, as this investigation has just been begun, but I want to emphasize this idea, that this 1,000 tons of sugar, if recovered, would make 3,000,000 gallons of vinegar, which would go a long way toward paying the expense of managing the orchard one of the largest manufacturers of vinegar in the state told me recently that he expected pure older vinegar to go to 30 cents wholesale in the next two years. "I in regard to the large amount of sugar that goes out in the pomace no waste, I have never yet seen a man factoryer or a farmer who handled this pomace so as to recover nearly all the sugar left in it. Thousands of tons of pomace are thrown out without the highest attempt being made to recover the sugar. Some people put it back on the soil, but it ought not to be put on the soil at all until well rotted. "It has been well established that it can be successfully used for cattle food in France and England it is fed very successfully. Vermont and Massachusetts experiment stations have also experimented with it and for several years have been feeding it successfully to milk cows." 615 EAST 10TH STREET All Kinds of Fancy Groceries All On Hand Meat Market in Connection With the Store.
