VOL XVII Brigands Have at Last Liberated Long-Captive Missionary. REPORT FROM CONSTANTINOPLE Rev. Teilka, Husband of Miss Stone's Companion, is Suspected of Complicity In the Abduction. The Temps (Paris newspaper) publishes a dispatch from Constantinople which announces that Miss Ellen M. Stone has been released by the brigands who have held her captive since September 3 last, and she has been handed over in good health to the dragoman of the American legion. It was announced recently that the Turkish authorities suspected Rev. Teilka of complicity in the abduction of the missionaries. The companion of Miss Stone was Mme. K. S. Tsilika, a Bulgarian woman, wife of Mr. Tsilika, a Macedonian teacher of Samakov. Miss Stone, while traveling with Mme. Tellika and a party of about fifteen friends, was captured by brigands in the district of Salqnika, September 3. Since that time vigorous efforts have been made by the United States government and by missionaries to obtain the release of the captives. The brigands demanded a ransom of 25,000 (Turkish) pounds, but only $72,500 was collected for the ransom and this sum was paid over to the brigands February 6 by M. Gargiulo, chief of the American legation, Constantinople, and W. W. Peet, treasurer of the American mission at Constantinople, who met the brigands on the road to the Pondrome monastery. Madame Tellka was educated at the Northfield seminary. At the time of receiving her American training and education she was Miss Stephemaora, a Bulgarian. Having been converted in childhood to the Christian belief, she came to America after having refused to marry the man of her parents' choosing. Dr. Dwight L. Moody, becoming interested in her welfare, found a place for her in his school. Having finished her training at that institution, she became a trained nurse. While engaged in her professional duties in the Adlondacks, she became acquainted with Mr. Tillka, a Macedonian, who had also been educated in the United States. At that period he was preparing for work as an American missionary. Soon after the completion of their training the couple were married and went to Bulgaria, whither they at once entered upon missionary work. Miss Stone is one of the missionaries of the American board of foreign missions. She has been attached to the Salonika mission since 1873. She was born at Roxbury, Mass., and her home is in Chelsea, Mass., where her mother resides. BROTHER USED GUN. Man Cleared of Breach of Promise Suit Gets Dose of Cold Lead. William O. Shipp, charged with breach of promise by Bessie E. Walker, was tried in chambers in Norfolk, Va. Tuesday morning by Police Justice Taylor. The plaintiff failed to prove that Shipp promised to marry her. Shipp was discharged. Tuesday afternoon Levl Walker, 20 years old, a brother of Miss Bessie Walker, walked up to Shipp and some of his friends who stood talking together and opened fire upon them. He fired five shots, two of these struck Shipp and one struck Walter J. Gray. Both men fell and both are believed to be mortally wounded. Charter Applied For. Application has been filed in Chattanooga to incorporate the Interstate Oil and Gas Company with $250,000 capital to bore for oil and gas in the vicinity. The incorporators are C. C. Ellis, P. S. Griffith, Joe W. Clift, B. W. Sparks and C. Manning Ellis. HOT TIMES IN SPAIN. Strikers In Continuous Bloody Conflict With the Troops. The city of Barcelona, Spain, is in control of the troops, but isolated bands of strikers are still doing considerable damage. Rioters Tuesday attacked a prison van and attempted to release a number of strikers who had been made prisoners. A striker fired on the guard, who in return shot and filled the man who fired on him. A large lumber yard has been burned by incendiaries and several stores have been pillaged.

UNANIMOUS CONSENT SPRUNG Republicans and Democrats Applauded 'When Bill Was Read and Unanimous Vote Was Given, 278 Members Voting Aye.' A Washington special says: There was a large attendance on the floor of the house and the galleries Monday in anticipation of the debate on the bill to repeal the war revenue taxes. Just prior to the assemblage of the house the committee on rules met and agreed upon the form of a special rule for the consideration of the bill, by the terms of which it should be brought to a vote at 4 o'clock Tuesday. After some minor business had been cleared away Mr. Dalzell, of Pennsylvania, from the committee on rules, presented the special order agreed upon by that committee. Mr. Dalzell explained the effect of the rule. This measure, he said, was presented to redeem a pledge made when the war revenue taxes were imposed that when the necessity for them ceased they would be repealed. This was a measure on which, he took it, there was practically unanimity of sentiment on both sides of the house. It was a simple repeal measure and it was deemed wise that it should be brought to a vote without complication on the extraneous issues. At the conclusion of this brief statement, Mr. Dalzell yielded thirty minutes to Mr. Underwood, of Alabama, also of the committee on rules. The Alabama member protested against the rule, not because, he said, it provided for the consideration of a bill to reduce the taxation, but because it prevented individual members from exercising their own judgment or carrying out the wishes of their constituents as to what portion of the excessive taxes should be repealed. As an instance of a tax which it was not advisable to repeal, he cited the inheritance tax, a tax which, he said, was levied on a class that was not reached by other taxation. Mr. Underwood said he did not think a general tariff revision should be made, because it would unsettle present conditions and might lead to disorder. He referred to the stagnation in business which existed pending the excitement of both the Wilson and Dingley bill to support his statement. He thought the proper method of reducing duties at this time was through reciprocity agreements made in pursuance of congressional enactment and he sent to the clerk's desk and had read an amendment representing his ideas in this particular. Mr. Ball, of Texas, denounced the rule as but another step in the parliamentary evolution by which individualism in the house was being crushed out and a few men were enthroned as the autocrats to dominate its will. The rule was adopted 158 to 120. Thereupon, Mr. Richardson, the minority leader, arose. "I arise to make a request for unanimous consent," said he. "In view of the fact that we are not permitted to amend the pending bill and in view of the fact that two days' debate is absolutely fruitless under this rule, I ask unanimous consent that the bill be put upon its passage now." (Applause on both sides.) The speaker put the request. Members looked at each other with amazement. Not a sound was heard. "There is no objection," announced the speaker as he brought his gavel down. The clerk began to read the bill. The verbal committee amendments to the bill were agreed to and the ayes and nays were taken on its passage. The bill to repeal the war taxes was passed unanimously by the house, 278 members voting aye. PRESIDENT HELPS HOBSON. Written Special Message Recommending Merrimac Herd's Retirement. The president Monday sent to the senate a message recommending the retirement of Naval Constructor Richmond P. Hobson, and in accordance with this recommendation Senator Gallinger immediately introduced a bill providing for Mr. Hobson's transfer to the retired list. In his message the president gives as his reason the trouble that Mr. Hobson has had since 1900 with his eyes, and recites the history of that trouble. KAISER'S YACHT HAS ARRIVED. New Yorkere Are Given a Surprise in Unexpuesto Arrival of the Hohenzollern. The imperial German yacht, Hohenstoller, sent to New York for the use of Prince Henry of Prussia in his forthcoming visit, arrived Wednesday from Kiel. She was not expected, for she came by the southern circle, and it was calculated that the run would take at least one more day than it could. It had also been thought that she would touch at Bermuda and that place had reported her two days overdue. The weather encountered was unfavorable for a call at Bermuda, and at sea Admiral Count Von Baudussin allandoned the partly formed plan and shaped his course for New York. She hove in sight off Sandy Hook a few minutes before the noon hour, and an hour later was in quarantine. She got the courtesy of the port from federal officials and proceeded on through the Narrows and up into North river without delay. Passing craft gave her a noisy welcome with their whistles, and the man at her jack staff was lept busy dipping her big naval flag and its field of white, black Prussian eagle and black cross. She was painted white all over, save for a large black eagle at her figurehead, some touches of gold astera and a long streak of red that showed below her water line. She had a ram bow and in general type resembles a modern man of war. She shows no gun in sight, but carries eight rapid-fire Krupp guns. The Hohenzollern docked at the pliers of the North German Lloyd Steamship Company at Hoboken and will be thoroughly overhauled and put in order. Admiral Von Baudlissin was formally welcomed to New York by a civic committee, a representative of Mayor Low and an officer of the United States navy. The officers of the Hohenzollern said it would be impossible for them to accept formal entertainments until the arrival of the prince, of whose suite they are members. VETS WELCOME MRS. DAVIS. General Reception Given In Her Honor at Birmingham, Ala. There was a general reception at the Morris hotel in Birmingham, Ala., Wednesday morning in honor of Mrs. Jefferson Davis, who arrived Tucaday evening. She was on her way to Jackson, Miss., where she will appear before the legislature to urge the purchase by the state of Mississippi of Beauvoir, the old Davis mansion. Hundreds of persons attended the reception of the morning and had the privilege of being greeted by Mrs. Davis. She was presented with badges by the local camps of Confederate veterans and was the recipient of many beautiful flowers from the Daughters of the Confederacy. It is learned that Mrs. Davis had been offered in the north $30,000 for Beauvoir, but refused to sell. She offers the place to Mississippi for $10,000, provided the state will establish and maintain there a home for Confederate soldiers. COURT CONDUCTING BANK. Receiver Selected For Wrecked Institution at Detroit, Michigan. At Detroit, Mich., Judge Donovan arpointed the Union Trust Company, of that city, receiver for the wrecked City Savings bank. The bond was fixed at $600,000. Prosecuting Attorney Hunt has filed suit against the directors of the bank on behalf of Wain county for $250,000. The county is one of the heaviest depositors in the wrecked institution. Cashler Henry Andrews, who wrecked the institution, is reported as weaker. His mind wanders and he has symptoms of a recurrence of his heart trouble. To Change Inauguration Date.

Athena Dispensary's Net Profits The annual report of the Athens, Ga. dispensary commission shows that, last year, the dispensary's net profits amounted to over $15,000, more than $4,000 in excess of any previous year's business. IS PUZZLED OVER SITUATION Tells Senate Committee That He Really Don't Know What Is Best Government Policy For the Islands A Washington special says: The hearing of Governor Taft on the Philippine question by the senate committee Saturday on the Philippines began with a series of questions by Senator Petterson in regard to the fitness of Filipinos for jury duty. Mr. Patterson asked, whether the native population on which the voting franchise is bestowed could not be trusted to do jury duty. The governor replied in the negative, saying they are so used to corruption in the administration of justice that they could not be trusted. Referring to the petition of the federal' party, Governor Taft said all the cases of imprisonment referred to there were for military and civil offenses. Practically there are no civil prosecutions for political offenses at this time. Governor Taft said that the original draft of the federal party platform had been submitted to the commission, and that the declaration for statehood was then more explicit than was ultimately adopted. "My recollection," he said, "is that we said to the representatives of the party that this must be far in the future, and that we could make no promise one way or another." "Is not the commission responsible for the formation of the federal party?" asked Senator Dubois. "No, it was not," Governor Taft responded. Senators Patterson, Carmarcie and Culberson asked numerous questions, based upon the meritorial of the federal party calculated to bring out Governor Taft's idea as to what, if any, promise should be made to the Filipinos in the way of government for the future. Replying to an inquiry from Mr. Patterson as to the denunciation in the memorial of a colonial form of government, Governor Taft said the memorialists mean just what they say, that they favor ultimate statehood. Replying to Mr. Carmack as to the wisdom of making the Philippines an integral part of the United States, the witness said the condition in the Philippines today is such that the restructon of the constitution of the United States cannot be safely extended to those islands. Governor Taft advocated the establishment of a stable government for the present, with the understanding that at some time in the future the Americans and the Filipinos could reach an agreement as to what should be done in the way of government, or in maintaining relations; "but," he said, "whether the islands should have their independence, whether they should be given a quasi independence or whether they should be made a state of the union is so far in the future that I have reached no conclusion. "The great evil of the present time with references to the Philippines is the current discussion of their future so long before that can be fixed." Replying to a question by Senator Carmack, he said he would not favor a promise even of a form of government such as is given to the territories of the United States. He also said he was opposed to extending the constitution to those islands. In reply to a number of questions by Senator McComas, based upon the democratic substitute for the Philippine tariff hill, Governor Taft said that to turn the government of the archipelago over to the Filipinos as therein proposed would, in his opinion, result in marchey. He had no doubt, however, that the Filipinos' could form a government as they had done under Aguinaldo. RABID RACE PREJUDICE. Whiteeps In Indiana Notify Farmers Not to Hire Negroes.! At Wheatland, Ind., there is a negro settlement. The negroes work for white farmers. All are quiet and in- offensive, but there is a prejudice against them. The following notices, signed "Fire Bits," were found posted and have produced a sensation. "Notice is hereby given that any man who employs negro labor after the 1st of March, or harbors, leases or rents, lands to any negro their houses will be burned after the 1st day of April." --- An Atlanta dispatch says: After the inquest hold on the body of Policeman James M. Duncan Monday morning, the coroner proceeded to the police barracks and served a copy of a warrant for murder on Mrs. Duncan, the woman who had slain her husband. There was a calm resignation of despair in the woman's manner when she received the paper from the coroner's hands, as terrible a document as it ever falls to the lot of a woman to receive in this life—a summons to appeal in court and defend herself against the charge of killing the man she had solemnly promised to love and cherish. Mrs. Duncan had already been informed of her husband's death early in the morning by the police matron, and she had raved for hours in semi-delirium. When the summons came from the court of inquest despair had taken the place of nervous excitement. The coroner's jury met at the underinker's and examined all the witnesses in the case except Claudie Duncan, the son of the dead man, who refused to testify, because his attorney advised him not to do so. Very much the same story of the killing which has already been given was gone over. . SOUTHERN PROGRESS. The New Industries Reported In the South During the Past Week.

No corps of teachers in‘any other part of the country has more to contend with than some of the teachers in our city echools: In ‘many of the grades they have a sufficient number of children for two teachers, yet they have te bend all of their energies and might to givo all of these chil- dren the proper instrnetion and at the same time maintain discipline; this much is being accomplished and the slight commendation of Mr. Ashmore is not at all mis- placed. He called attention to the insuf- ficient school accommodation and the large number of colored chil- dren unable to secure seatsin the schools. At this he stops. He knows that thereis need for more accommodation, yet he fails to ree- ommend its increase to the board. It is hoped that each member of the Board of Education has -seen the great.nced of the Negro children, and that they will decide at some early date to erect a suitable build- ing i the dest location so that the hundreds ‘of boys and girls that are loafing the streets, whose parents are unable to even send them to pri- vate schools, will find room to ma- tricalate so they may learn to be- come the proper kind of citizens. Azovr a year ago Jackson county was aroused by the alleged attempt of a colored man‘named Gus Fellows, to assailt.a white woman, An in- furiated mob was organized to lynch him. The governor was communi- cated’ with and troops sent to pro- ‘tect him from the lynchers. He was ‘tried, found guilty. His case was appealed to the supreme court and the decision of the lower court was reversed. He was given another ‘trial, found guilty and his case ap- pealed and was reversed even the third time. “The judge of the lower court knowing that there was no new ‘evidence upon which to try the case afourth time and feeling that the ‘supreine court would not uphold the verdict of his Court, hes decided to have the case nol prossed and allow Fellows to go free, There .must ‘have been a great doubt jn the guilt ‘of Fellows for the lower court’s de- ‘cision not to be upheld, and it only goes to prove that every man that is lynched for this crime is not guilty. If it was not for the timely action of Governor Candler in ordering ont the troops to protect him, he would have been sent into eternity an inno- cent man.

We enjoy going out, for, going always among the craft meetingg,. we meet the cordial hand-grasp and hearty welcome of a smiling face among them, and although one may tire of the routine ceremonies unless frequent changes in the personel occur, we find oar closest attention given to what is transacted a3 much so as when we first saw Masonic light. The Grand Lodge of California decided that person who has lost one eye and wears a glass eye, but is in all other respects qualified, is dis- qualified from receiving the degrees of Masonry in that state. This comes nearest to answering our “epectacle question” of anything we have seen, for, of course, the Grand Lodge will fallow the inevitable log- ic of this decision, and’ hold that a candidate who has to wear ‘apectadles cannot be‘admitted—J.

Though some Lodges do not en- courage the attendance of visitora at “stated” meeting, we prefer those gatherings because the attendance of membership is larger, and we can there witness more of human nature —its beauties and effects, its good traits-and its harsh judgment than anywhere eles in the world of frater- nity. We would attend every stated meeting held in the city if we were omnipresent. It ie always pleasant to be there, for it : there that the great mission of Mrsonry is completely exemplified.

It {s colled up in spiral form and fingly tempered. ‘The process’ of tempering these springs was long held as a secret-by, tho fow fortunate ones possessing it, and even now it is not generally known. Their manufacture requires gredt skill and care. The strip 1s gauged to one-fifth of an inch, but no -measuring instrument has as yet been devised capable of fine enough gauging to determine be- forehand by the size of the strip what the strength of the finished spring will be, A one-fivehundredth part of an inch difference in the thickness of the strip makes a difference in the running of a watch of about six minutes per hour, ‘The value‘of these springs when fin- Ished and placed in watches is enor- mous in proportion ‘to the material from which they are’made. A ton of steel made up into hair springs when fh watches fs worth more than twelve and one-half tlmes the value of the same weight in pure gold. * .
