RÉBELS ARE WHIPPED Revolution in Colombia Crushed Beyond Resurrection. MEN AND ARMS SURRENDERED Revolutionary Generals Uribe-Uribe and Castillo, Hemmed in by Government Troops, are Forced to Yield. A special from Panama states that the revolutionary general, Uribe-Uribe, with ten cannon, 2,500 rifles and 300,000 rounds of ammunition, has surrendered to General Majarres at Rio Frio, near Santa Marta. The revolutional forces under General Uribe-Uribe, which were defeated October 14 at LaReinaga, rotted at Rio Frio and took up positions there, General Marjarres, with 2,000 men, proceeded against the rebels from LaCienaga and engaged the enemy two days ago. The government general succeeded in surrounding the rebels and forcing them to surrender, General Castillo was with General Uribe-Uribe. The news of this victory was received in Panama by General Peromo and Governor Salazar Tuesday morning in a telegram from General Marjarre. Details of the engagement are lacking, but heavy casualties on both sides are reported. The surrender of Uribe-Uribe is said to complete the pacification of the departments of Magdalena and Bolivar. The revolutionists now occupy the isthmus only. In the sight of October 14, at La Cienaga the revolutionary forces consisted of 1,300 men. The government gunboat, General Pinzon, arrived at Colon Tuesday afternoon from Savanilla. She was especially sent from that port by the governor of the department of Bolivar to bring the news of the defeat of the revolutionists under Uribe-Uribe and Castilla at Rio Frio. Both these generals were made 'prisoners. There is much rejoicing in Colon and Panama over the success of General Marparres, and especially over the capture of Uribe-Uribe. Death Blow to Rebela. Confirmation of the news of the surrender of General Uribe-Uribe was contained in the following dispatch received at the Colombian legation in Washington Tuesday night: "Panama, October 28.—Uribe-Uribe and Castillo (another revolutionary general) surrendered at LaClenaga with a large quantity of arms and ammunition." The legation officials declare that with the surrender of Uribe-Uribe the life of the rebellion in the interior of Colombia has received its death blow, and that the complete pacification of that portion of the country must inevitably follow. He was, they say, the acknowledged leader of the movement against the government, and by his energy and perseverance in raising and equipping troops and securing assistance from the outside has kept the revolution going for several years. GADSDEN FOLK ARE HAPPY. Big Steel Company Will Spend Five Millions in Their Town. A dispatch from Gadsdon, Ala., says: The Alabama Steel and Wire company contracted with Messrs. Schulers to begin work on their steel mill and furnaces Tuesday morning. They will erect at once two 360-ton blast furnaces followed by the steel mill and two more furnaces, also a wire mill at a cost of five million dollars. Their site consists of 400 acres of ground located on Louisville and Nashville, Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis, AleLama Great Southern and Southern railways and is reached by electric car line every fifteen minutes. They also purchased the land owned by the Gadsden Land and Improvement company, also the Gadsden and Attalla Electric Car Line, and have otherwise invested large amounts in real estate. ROAD GIVES MORTGAGE. Cape Fear Terminal Company Prepares to Make Extensions. There was filed at Southport, N. C., Friday a deed of trust securing bonds to the amount of $800,000 for the Cape Fear Terminal Railroad Company. The Lincoln Savings and Trust Company, of Philadelphia, becomes the trustee. The terminal company is chartered to build a line of railways from Southport to Wilmington, with the ultimate purpose of extending the line or making frame arrangements for the Virtuous Railroad. The Savannah Tribune. ROBBER KILLS ENGINEER. Train on Northern Pacific Held Up and Thoroughly Looted—Large Reward is Offered. Eastbound passenger train No. 2, on the Northern Pacific, was held up Thursday night near Drummond, Mont, and Engineer Dan O'Neill was killed. O'Neill had been in the service of the road longer than any other engineer. The train, which included mail, baggage and express cars with nine coaches, left Missoula at 10:30 p. m. It arrived after midnight at a place two miles east of Drummond. Here the train was signalled to stop, and the engineer accordingly slowed up. While doing so he saw a man creeping toward him over the tender. The man, who was armed, called to O'Neill to stop the train instantly. The engineer took in the situation at once and pulling open the throttle tried to start the train at full speed. The robber divined his purpose and fired at him. The shot took instant effect and the engineer fell dead at his post. The robber then proceeded to rifle the express and mail cars. He plundered the regular mall and blew open the safe in the express car, which was wrecked by the explosion. The amount of plunder which he secured is not known, but it is supposed to be large. The excitement on the train was intense. The sudden stoppage of the train, followed soon by the explosion, spread alarm among the train hands and the passengers. The darkness of the night and the loneliness of the place added to the terror. Word of the attack was sent to Drummond, whence it was telegraphed to Deer Lodge, 50 miles away. Blood-hounds were sent out at once and steps were taken to keep vigilant watch for the robbers. It was assumed that at least eight men were engaged in the hold-up, but the latest advices are that one man alone perpetrated the murder and robbery. Dan O'Nelll, the murdered engineer, lived in Missoula and had a wife and five children. The robber boasted that he took part in the hold-up of the Southern Pacific train near Portland, Oregon, about a year ago. He made this boast to the train hands to terrorize them while he employed them to run the train for four miles, that is to a point two miles east of Drummond. He declared he would be hard to catch, as he had a horse in the timber. The Northern Pacific has offered a reward of $5,000 for delivery, dead or alive, of the robber and murderer. The mask worn by the handit was found on a mountain trail, two miles from the scene of the hold-up, and after giving the hounds the scent of the mask, the animals immediately took up the trail, which was then about eight hours old. WAR ON ORGANIZED LABOR. National Association of Manufacturers Opposed to Unions. The National Association of Manufacturers of the United States of America, through a circular letter being mailed to every manufacturer in this country, declares war on organized labor and its aims and objects. Particular stress is laid on the efforts of labor to secure the passage of an eight-hour law before congress, which is called "vicious." Recipients of these letters are asked to become members of the manufacturers' association, and the arguments advanced are because the organization is engaged in a bitter, up-hill fight against the unlawful demands of organized labor. The letters bear the signature of David M. Parry, of Indianapolis, the president. WASHINGTON MURDER MYSTERY. Coroner's Jury Seeks to Probe Death of Mrs. Ada Dennis. A coroner's Inquest was begun at Washington, D. C., Friday over the remains of Mrs. Ada Gilbert Dennis, the fashionable dressmaker, who died last Wednesday as the result of the mysterious assault committed upon her ten months ago. But little light was thrown on the case during the Inquest. KIGN OFFERS UP THANKS. Through Pelting Rain He and Queen Drove to Church. A London special says: The last ceremonies connected with the inauguration of the reign of King Edward VII occurred Saturday, when the king accompanied by Queen Alexandra, the prince of Wales and almost all the members of the royal family, drove to the St. Paul cathedral and offered up thanks for the recovery of his health, which had enabled him to be crowned. The weather was rainy and small crowds marked the royal progress through the streets. SAVANNAH. GA. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 1, 1902. Beacon Lights FOR NEGROES C. M. E. churches. The commission now in session from these two denominations are practically committed to this action. Whatever they agree upon will have to be submitted to the two denominations, their conferences and finally the people, before the union can be consummated; but with the commission, which is composed of representative men of the two denominations supporting the movement, its saturation of the re- to them in the came to us as ish-American n very few of take advantage cause there is turous and p make-up. More At Weldon, N. C., the 16th inst., the Negroes of the second congressional district met and nominated for congress M. S. Vick, of Wilson, N. C. We hope he will be elected, for he is able and worthy, and the only Negro postmaster in the state. At the meeting ex-Congressmen P. H. Cheatham and George H. White spoke strongly against the independent movement in the state, which they said has a tendency to crush out the Negro, and they shelled Senator Pritchard.—Exchange. Higher Education Among Negroes. Higher Education Among Negroes. In view of the fact that much has been sold against the higher education of Negroes, it might be well to note the fact that any one of the large colleges of our country has more college students in attendance than all the Negro colleges of the country put together. The white colleges of almost any single state, that is, of the older states, have more students than all the Negro colleges in the United States. It strikes us that there should be more, rather than less, collegiate instruction. --- Negro Baptist Publication House. Negro Baptist Publication House. The Negro Laptists of the country have the largest publication house in the country under colored management. Nearly one hundred young men and women are employed, and printing and lithographing in their various branches are in full operation. One of its most noted products is a series of song books, edited, printed and composed entirely by Negroes. The Sunday school literature issued by them will compare favorably both in scholarship and appearance with any sent out by the white publishing houses. The Zion, C. M. E., A. M. E., all have excellent publishing houses, but if we are correctly informed, the Baptist one is the largest. Poor Haytl. 'Tis a pity that revolutions prevent this island, a perfect gem in all physical aspects, from taking a high place in the march of civilization. One war is hardly ended before another, with all its frightful accompaniments of cruelty, follows and a fruitful country is devastated by man's inhumanity. The Antilles, all of them, have had checkered careers, and Haytl appears to have a double portion. If it could have the blessings of good schools; if the influence of the priests could be removed; if a few thousand of our intelligent Negroes would emigrate to that country, they would be of great service to their race. Ignorance is Haytl's greatest obstacle. Great Meeting. Under the charge of Dr. R. D. Stinson a large and profitable meeting was held in the interest of the Morris Brown College. The meeting was held in St. James church, and among the many able speeches made, the one delivered by Pref. R. R. Wright, the president of the Georgia State Industrial College, was the most felling and practical. Major Wright urged his hearers to believe that the good white and intelligent white people were their friends; to saye their money; to enter into small business enterprises; to become efficient cooks, washerwomen, mechanics; in short, to be faithful in all they attempted to do. The words of this faithful and high-minded leader was received with much applause. Churches of the Race New London, Conn., Oct. 23.—Rev. Washington Gladden, of Ohio, was today re-lected president of the American Missionary Association. Among the speakers at the closing session were Mary E. Westgate, of Blowing Rock, N. C.; Ella Skoppard, of Nashville, Tenn.; Helen H. Proctor, of Atlanta. An address was made by Rev. H. H. Proctor, of Atlanta, in connection with a report on southern church work, by Rev. W. M. Noves, of Massachusetts. "As a race," said Proctor, "we form one-tenth of the nation and one-third of the south. We shall contribute at least that proportion toward tearing down or building up. There are 7,000,000 Negroes in the south, and of these at least 4,000,000 are outside of any church—as many as were set free a generation ago. One-half the black race is unchurched and one-half of the existing churches are totally incompetent to meet the religious needs of their members. Fully one-half of the ministers are yet unprepared mentally and spiritually to properly administer to the people.—Exchange. Celored Methodists Unite. Indications reach us favorable to a union between the A.M. M. Bison and C. M. E. churches. The commission now in session from these two denominations are practically committed to this action. Whatever they agree upon will have to be submitted to the two denominations, their conferences and finally the people, before the union can be consummated; but with the commission, which is composed of representative men of the two denominations supporting the movement, its satisfaction by the people is assured. With a platform of agreement framed it will be interesting to note what the great A. M. E. church will do in the premises. With the A. M. E. Zion and C. M. E. church one, the A. M. E. church will have to look to its laurels to keep up with the procession.—Washington (D. C.) Record. Negro Mayor. It is well to keep the record. Sometimes ago the Raleigh News and Observer stated that the only printing office in the state owned and controlled by Negroes was at Kittrell, N. C. We have not seen a contradiction of the statement. Following close upon this a paragraph in The Star of Zion says that Mound Bayou has the only Negro mayor in the United States. Let us come nearer home than that. Princville, N. C., in Edgecombe county, has had a Negro mayor and board of aldermen for over ten years. It is situated on the right bank of the Tar river and on the Plymouth and Rocky Mount railroad. It is a much better town than Mound Bayou, and has a dozen Negroes worth from $1,000 to $30,000, and is so quiet and so well managed that thousands of North Carolinians do not know there is such a place in the state. The A. M. E. Zion church has a mission there.—Star of Zion. --- Race Rlots. Three white men and eight Negroes were killed and many others wounded in a bitter race war that raged at Littleton, a town twenty-three miles from Birmingham, Ala., in the western part of Jefferson county. When a telegraphic message calling for assistance was sent out of Littleton at 10 o'clock Sunday night, forty armed white men were barricaded in the railway station, and armed mobs of Negroes were making a house-to-house canvass in the Negro quarters in search of recruits. The telegraph operator requested that a big posse of deputies be sent to the scene at once, as the whites feared a general attack by the Negroes before morning. Sheriff Burgin hastily summoned a strong posse and armed its members with rifles as soon as he got the call for assistance. The deputies started for Littleton at 10:30 o'clock. They expected to reach their destination by midnight—Exchange. We deplore such sad occurrences. They always happen among the most ignorant and degraded ones of both races. Among the educated they never occur. --- Strikers Against the Negro. A careful resume of the situation in Pennsylvania discloses the fact that the mine operators are perfectly willing to employ both union and non-union men, while the union men positively refuse to work with non-union men, many of whom are colored. If organized labor be sincere in its lofty alms and ambitions, why not open its doors to all classes of skilled mechanics, irrespective of color or nationality? If all classes of mechanics were admitted into the fold of organized labor, the mine owners would be compelled to submit to the demands of labor, or else close down their mines. Organized labor is an "industrial trust" pure and simple. The so-called "heef trust" compels the retailer to either handle its goods or "go to the wall." The "industrial trust" either desires to complete control of an establishment or else it will do its utmost to prevent other men from working, and oftentimes do violence to both men and establishment—Exchange. --- Good Opening In the Philippines Mr. T. Clay Smith, Battalion Sergeant major of the Twenty-fourth United States Infantry, stationed at Fort Assinibolne, Montana, who has recently returned from the Philippines, in a letter to the editor of The Age, among other things, says: Several of our young men are now in business in the Philippines and are doing nicely, indeed, along such lines as express men, hotels and restaurants, numerous clerks in the civil government as well as in the division quartermaster's office, and there are several school teachers, one lawyer and one doctor of medicine. However, color prejudice has kept close in the wake of the flag and is keenly felt in that far-off land of eternal sunshine and roses. I think, with everything considered, that the Philippines offer our people the best, opportunities of the century and would advise immigration. We have done what we could in the part to impress upon our young, educated ambitious young men the imper tance of the rich opportunities opened to them in the new possessions which came to us as the result of the Spanish-American war; but we believe that very few of them have ventured to take advantage of them. Why? Because there is but little of the adventurous and pioneer element in our make-up. More's the plty—Age. BARON BAER BALKS Operators Offer Special Train for the Trip, But Commission Refuses to Accept Their "Kind Consideration." The anthracite coal strike commission reassembled at Washington Monday afternoon In the hearing room of the interstate commerce commission. All the members of the committee were present, occupying seats on the bench. Mr. Mitchell, president of the United Mine Workers, and District President Fahey appeared for the miners, and the coal carrying roads were represented as follows: President Baer, of the Reading railroad; E. B. Thomas, chairman of the board of the Pennsylvania Coal company and Hillsdale Coal and Iron company; Alfred Walter, president of the Lehigh Valley; W. H. Truesdale, president of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western; David Willcox, vice-president of the Delaware and Hudson; John B. L. Herr, vice-president of the Scranton Coal company and Elk Hill Coal and Iron company; J. H. Torrey, attorney for the Delaware and Hudson, and G. I. Cowan, attorney for the Lehigh Valley company. The proceedings covered about two hours' time and were given up entirely to a discussion of the time and method of proceeding with the proposed investigation. The commission decided to begin its work Thursday morning at 9 o'clock, the first days of the investigation to be devoted to a physical examination of the mines and the homes of the miners, starting in the vicinity of Scranton. The entire anthracite field will be covered. There was considerable discussion over a proposition made by the commission to have expert accountants appointed to audit the statements of wages and classifications of miners to be made by the operators for the use of the commission, but no result was reached on this point beyond the announcement by the chairman of the commission's intention to appoint such an accountant in-case his services' should be found necessary. Baer Objects to Mitchell. During the progress of the meeting Mr. Mitchell, as the representative of the miners, presented a copy of the original declaration of the miners as formulated by the Shamokin convention as the basis of the demands of the miners. This demand is, first, for an increase of 20 per cent in wages of those not engaged by the day; second, a reduction of 20 per cent in working hours of those engaged by the day; third, the payment for coal mined by weight at a minimum rate of 60 cents per ton of 2,240 pounds; fourth, a wage agreement between the operators and the miners for an adjustment of wages. Mr. Baer, on the part of the coal operators, took exception to Mr. Mitchell's appearance before the commission as a representative of the mine workers' union, but said that he had no objection to his presence as a representative of the strikers as such in their individual capacity. The commission made no attempt to settle the controversy, but it was made apparent that the recognition of the miners' union will be an important and nototty problem for the arbitrators. Corbin and Young Return. Major Generals H. C. Corbin and Samuel M. Young, of the. United States army, who went abroad to attend the German army, manoeuvers upon the invitation of Emperor William, arrived at New York on the steamship Philadelphia from Southampton Saturday. Scotch Miners Want More Pay. Advices from Glasgow state that the Scotch miners have demanded an increase of 12½ cents in wages. About 7,000 miners are affected. A woman whose vocabulary is limited to the words "get up" and "go" has been adjudged insane. Yet "get up" and "go" together express the quality generally deemed essential to one seeking the greatest success. --- GOVERNOR·TERRELL Retiring Governor the Recipient of Silver Service as a Loving Testimonial from His Erstwhile Official Family. In the presence of a vast throng that filled the hall of the house of representatives from gallery door to speaker's desk, and surrounded by members of house and senate, state officials, justices of the supreme court and a splendid gathering of men and women of Georgia, Hon. Joseph M. Terrell was formally inaugurated governor of Georgia Saturday at noon. The inauguration ceremonies were extremely simple; a prayer, a speech, the oath of office and all was over; and yet they were Impressive, stirring and full of meaning to every Georgian who was their witness. It was at the request of Mr. Terrell that the joint committee omitted all unnecessary or cumbersome features, and the whole ceremony consumed scarcely half an hour. Long before the noon hour the galleries began to fill, the ladies predominating, and when 12 o'clock arrived the only standing room to be had was outside the gallery doors. Likewise the floor of the house was invaded and gallant legislators stood in the rear, while dainty femininity occupied their seats. The aisles were filled with chairs for visitors-until it seemed impossible for another to get within the hall, yet the proverbial one more came and found a way. The assembled spectators brought with them all their state enthusiasm and there was prolonged applause and cheers when the entry of governor and governor-elect was, finally announced. Throughout the inaugural address they gave genulous expression of approval of the sentiments and principles of the new governor. Chief Justice Simmons, of the supreme court, administered the oath of office to Mr. Terrell. All other state house officers, with the exception of State School Commissioner Merritt, whose term does not begin until January 7, began their new terms Saturday. After taking the oath of governor Mr. Terrell returned to his office and administered the oath of office to the state house officers. Rotiring Governor Honored. Governor Candler was presented with an elegant chest of silver before the inaugural ceremonies by the state house officers as a token of the esteem and high regard in which he is held by the members of his official family. The present was quite a surprise to the governor. At the presentation the officials bade the governor a last farewell as governor. Many of the officials wept as they shook his hand. Governor Candler was in tears when he bade his cabinet good-bye. The scene was a very impressive one. About the sides of the chamber stood the state house officers and their clerks. At one end of the room stood the governor, trembling with deep emotion, while the tears that he found impossible to hold back welled up to his eyes and coursed down his cheeks. In extending his thanks the governor said: "You have caused me to shed tears for the first time in twenty years." It was an affecting moment and there was not a man in the room but was deeply moved. None attempted to hide their feelings. Deputies Leave Strike Region. One hundred deputies, who were one guard at the colleries in Shamokin region during the strike, were sent home Saturday, night under orders to be ready to return at any time when notified, as it is feared there will be local strikes if all non-union men do not resign their positions. WOMAN SUFFRAGIST 'DEAD' Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton Buccumbs to Old Age. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton died Sunday afternoon at the age of 87, after a short illness, at her home in New York city. Old age was given as the cause of death. She was conscious almost to the last. About a week ago Mrs. Stanton began to fall rapidly. The children with har when she died, wore Mrs. M. P. Lawrence and Mrs. Stanton Blatch of New York, Henry and Robert L. of New York, lawyers. Theodore, of Philadelphia, with a real bond to her.

ReprEsENTATIVE Rogers of MeIn- tosh, when asked of his intentions as concerning legislation, quietly re- marked thas he is mostly interested in the betterment of the common school of the state. If Mr. Rogers can assist in having passed a law that would improve this system he would be doing adasting good. We remember distinctly when the Hardwick bill was before the leg- jelature to disfranchise the Negro yote, Gov. Candler after its failure in Passing said that there was no need for the passage of auch a law. In his last message to the legislature he recommends the calling of a Cou- stitutional Convention to restrict the ignorant voters. We have no objection to the restriction of igno- rant voters if there be no tinge of clase legislation in it. ‘ ‘THE TRIBUNE endeavors upon all occasion to call the attention of our people to those things that effect them most, and toa great extent it is being upheld by the thinkers of the race, and it. should be supple- mented greatly by the pastors of the various churches who have the op- portunity of reaching a large num- her of people. Our people must be told of their short comings and en- couraged to better the sume and at the eame time commended for the good accompliched, for all of us are Tike children, pleased to be flattered. THE Clevéland Gazette is growing hysterical over the treatment ac- corded our voters by the lily whites. ‘Much that it is doing aod saying are without reasoning and are unjust, especially when it attempte to charge their actions to President Roosevelt, Senator Hanna and oth- ers. These leaders have repudiated the actions of the hy whites and well do the editor of tha Gazette knows it, The trouble with Edi- tor Smith is that he has not been in ‘accord with the party o-ganization of Ohio for quite a time, and he is mainly giving vent to a spiteful feel- ing. 7 Fora number of years THe Trt- BUNE. has been protesting against the nefarious convict lease system of this state, and it is pleased to note that at last sentiment is being aroused against it and that there are a number of members of the legisla- ture who are iaclined to abrogate the aystem. A committee has been appointed by that body to investi- gate the same. The prison commis- sion has recommended the renewal of the lease system and there will no donbt bea hard fight for its adop- tion. While we are thoroughly against the system and would gladly weloome achange, yet if it is renew- ed, we hope that. the convicts will not be leased for the petty amount they have heretofore been bringing. Their labor is worth as much as that of a frea laborer and the state should be compenesten in proportion. By doing this a large amount would be received, and they would not be in such great competition with’ free labor. “The numeroys labor unions thronghout the atate should take thig mstter up and work in a manner that would benefit free labor: AMONG the many detriments to the progress of a certain clas of our people are the money sucking loan Eeiiecs, installment houses ant: poli- cy shops. Lach otie of these sap the fivancial blood of this clasa of unr people and generally leave them piti- ral wrecks. We have repeatedly call- ed attention to the illegality of these money sucking concerns, but seem- - ingly to no avail because they con- -tinua to fatten on the cupidity of : their,dupes. To prove the injustice jinflicted, upon its patrons by-the perr OA loan offices.one will only’haye to re-! fer to the records of the courts where some have been sued for usurous methods, and those persons who have gued are only afew among very | large number who have been like- wise treated. These concerns alorig. withthe installment men make oily speeches to induce persone, especial- ly the weak women to etther borrow money or purchase articles that they could easily do without. While they are doing this the peraons importun- ed are treated with every deference possible, but after the bargain is set- fled then the collectors commence their warfare and generally treat those they call upon to collect from disgracefully. ‘The sequel to all of this is that it would be far better if our people would refrain from deal- ing with such concerns. When they want artioles let them go” to some reputable business house, and keep from borrowing money, an¢ above all leave the policy shops alone A FEW weeks ago LHE IRIBUNE spoke of the intention ofthe Mill- Haven Company to use convicts atits plaining mills west of the city to the detriment of free labor, and ealled upon the city Council to sid in its prevention. At the Iast meet- ing of Council the matter was taken upand the following resolution was unanimously adopted: - “Whereas, it has come to the knowledge of the City Council of Savannah that the Mill Haven Com- pany bas leased a large umber of state convicts and propose employ- ing them at ite mill on the bounda- ry of the city ; and “WVhereas, the useof the convicts is inimical to the best interests of the people of this community; there- fore be it “Resolved, by the Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Savanuah, in Council assembled, that a protest be, and it is hereby, made against the leasing and using of such convict Ia- bor within two miles of the jurisdic- tional limits of this city. The use of buch convict labor siepiaces free and | better compensated Jaborers who are better citizens and residents of Sa- vannab, and who spend their money here. ‘The use of convicts is of lit. tle or bo value to the busiuese in- terests of the city aud is an opening whereby other manufacturing estab- |lishments may be encouraged tc similar steps to the detriment of honest labor and the community at large. In addition, there is a well defined fear that on the expiration of the terms of these convicts they will make Savannah their abiding place, throwing a lot of desperate criminals open ‘the community., “Resolved, further, ‘That tha Sen- ator from this district and the “Rep- resentatives from this county in the General Assembly are respectfully and urgently requested to introduce, advocate and press to passage such legislation as may be necessary in the premises to prevent the employ- meut of such convict labor within at least two miles of the jurisdiction- al limits of any city or town in Geor- gia, unless the Gongent of the mun- icipal authorities of said city or town ne obtained.” Tus Trisunz has received the annual report of Hon. Judson W. Lyons, Register of the ‘Treasury for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1902, for which we extend our thanks Pertinent Points. Mr. Russell Sage, the great New York financier has retired from ac- tive business life on account of old uge and impaired health. ‘Wis biography reads like a ro- mance. He was the son of a farmer, had few educational advantages wnd less capital, and yet he amassed a great fortune by rigid economy. Although money-getting is not the object of life yet itis necessary to have a competency while one gives one’s time to the seed of all living seryice to others. I knowa manin Savannah who has earned more than $20,000 with- in the lest fifteen years, yet he does notown a foot ofland, a horse a cow a pig or even a hen. His money has been spent most of it foolishly as fast as it came into his hands, The Negro must save some of his income whether his income is large orsmall. The Negro has wasted enongh money to build one hundred factories and a few railroads. Mr. Sage’s motto was “It ig not whata man makes, but what he caves, that counts.” There are thousands in Savannah who ought adopt this motto in theory and prac- tice. Suppose four thousand Negro families in the city owned the homes in which they lived and had credit and a small bask account, what then? You would see many changes in the treatment of the Negro every ‘where in Savannah. Besides the Negro would live long- er, He would not be forgotten as soon as he is Jaid beneath the soda. He would have better school facili- ties,.better churches, better preach- era, better hearers, better moralaartid more genuine réligion. “A fool can earn money but only a wise man can save it.” I know several families who have saved some of their small income and’ pur- chased homes. 2 Boye.and girls, save some of your ef oie = ¢ aerate Uh. lUPlUY EE on '* ‘Wages every week if only a little.

If Mrs. Homer and I were t¢ die today we have enpugh to defray‘our travel- ing expenses to the cemetery, thong we have not. saved it” es- pecially-for that purpose. It ia reallya pleasant and comfort- able feeling to know that yon have something, that you are somebody. More money saved, more homes, the results will be forthcoming. . Puise F.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—For some years I suffered with backache, severe bearing-down pains, leucorrhoea, and falling of the womb. I tried many remedies, but nothing gave any positive relief. "I commenced taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in June, 1901. When I had taken the first half bottle, I felt a vast improvement, and have now taken ten bottles with the result that I feel like a new woman. When I commenced taking the Vegetable Compound I felt all worn out and was fast approaching complete nervous collapse. I weighed only 98 pounds. Now I weigh 1094 pounds and am improving every day. I gladly testify to the benefits received."—Mrs. R. C. Tupman, 423 West 30th St., Richmond, Va. When a medicine has been successful in more than a million cases, is it justice to yourself to say, without trying it, "I do not believe it would help me"? Surcely you cannot wish to remain weak and sick and discouraged, exhausted with each day's work. You have some derangement of the feminine organism, and Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will help you just as surely as it has others. Mrs. W. M. Felham, Jr., 105 E. Baker St., Richmond, Va., says: MRS. W. A. PENHAM, JR. TOS E. BAKER ST., RICHMOND, VI., says, "Dear Mrs. Pinkham: I must say that I do not believe there is any female medicine to compare with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I return to you my heartfelt thanks for what your medicine has done for me. Before taking the Vegetable Compound I was so badly off that I thought I could not live much longer. The little work I had to do was a burden to me. I suffered, with irregular menstruation and leucorrhea, which caused an irritation of the parts. I looked like one who had consumption, but I do not look like that now, and I owe it all to your wonderful medicine. "I took only six bottles, but it has made me feel like a new person. I thank God that there is such a female helper as you." Be it, therefore, believed by all Maria E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I take. It has stood the test of time, hundreds of cures to its credit.

Mishaps From Which Little Children Are Wont to Buffer Aside from the defects which are born with the child, by far the greatest number are the result of accidents and injuries. Owing to the softness and elasticity of the child's frame he escapes much that would prove serious to adults. Yet the greater part of the serious afflictions of childhood, aside from the contagious fevers, are the outcome of injuries to the bones and joints. In children's wards in the hospitals the majority of the little patients are suffering from the diseases which make deformities. These are the different inflammations of the spinal column, which cause the various curvitatures of the spine; the inflammatory conditions that, occurring in the hip, give rise to hip joint disease, and the malformations which occur in the foot, giving rise to the shortening of a leg, causing the child to limp. Many of these conditions are due to an accident, such as a fall or a bruise; some are present from birth. A child's frame is much like that of the young tree or sapling. It can be trained and shaped while young and pliable, but after it is full grown this is not possible. Parents should use every means in their power to relieve and overcome the deformities which will be such a burden to their children all their lives. Mothers should constantly inspect their children to discover any of these troubles which result so disastrously. When the child is undressed, make it bend over so as to curve the spine, which makes the little projections of each vertebra stand out in relief. See that they make no deviations toward one side or the other. See that the shoulder blades are in a like position and not projecting too much. Look also at the ribs, especially where they are attached in front. It is well to have the seemingly healthy children gene over by the family physician once in awhile to see that growth is progressing as it should. If the spinal curvatures and the hip joint troubles are discovered early great suffering and the attendant deformity can be avoided. These diseases, which cause the greatest part of the deformity of childhood, are insidious in their approach and are often not detected until their ravages have progressed to such a degree that their remedy is difficult, even if possible.—Philadelphia Inquirer.

CONTINENTAL PLANT CO. No. 12 Strawberry Heights, Kittrell, N. C. GOVERNOR OF OREGON Uses Pe-ru-na in His Family For Colds and Grip. CAPITOL BUILDING, SALEM, OREGON. Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Letters of congratulation and commendation testifying to the merits of Pe-ru-na as a satarch remedy are pouring in from every State in the Union. Dr Hartman is receiving hundreds of such letters daily. All classes write these letters, from the highest to the lowest. Be outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the editor, the statesman, the preacher—all agree that Pe-ru-na is the satarch remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. * Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds, to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na can't cure catarrh but prevent. Every household should be supplied with this great remedy for coughs, colds and so forth. The Governor of Oregon is an ardent admirer of Pe-ru-na: He keeps it continually. Alligator Extract in the South. The alligator is said to be practi- cally extinct in the South. To Dame Fashion may be attributed his passing away. The demand for shoes, satchels and pocketbooks of alligator skin has been such within the last ten years that we will probably soon be com- pelled to visit our museums and zoos to hunt up the creature, which has un- justly earned an evil reputation as the terror of Southern swamps. Mr. J. Knight Perkins, of Kalamazoo, thou- oughly searched the southern portions of the country for 14-foot alligators. In All New Orleans he could find but one alligator 10 feet long. He discovered that even little alligators from eight to eight inches long had disap- to the census reports in The Insurance American. NOT SO BAD AFTER ALL "Ah, it's a sad old world" sighed the man who had been cheated out of $20. "Yes," assented his neighbor; "one of my horses got his head fast in the hayrack last night and broke his neck. I was offered $200 for him less than a month ago." "Pishaw! That's too bad. Looks as though it was goin' to brighten up, don't it?" And he, went on his way whistling cheerfully.—Chicago Record Herald. HER SAVING WAY. Mrs. Scale-Downie—I will have to get another girl, though only temporarily, perhaps a month or so. Mr. Scale-Downie—Three dollars more a week and board! What do you want an extra girl for? Mrs. Scale-Downie—I have found out how to make just the loveliest little hanging-cabinet you ever say, at a cost of only $z, but it will take me several weeks to do it.—New York Weekly.

In a recent letter to Dr Hartman he says: The Pe-runa Medicine Co., Columbus, O.: Dear Sirs—I have had occasion to use your Pe-runa medicine in my family for colds, and it proved to be an excellent remedy, and had no occasion to use it for other ailments. Yours truly, W. M. Lord. It will be noticed that the Governor says he has not had occasion to use Pe-runa for other ailments. The reason for this is most other ailments begin with a cold. Using Pe-runa to promptly cure colds, he says, is very important. This is exactly what every other family in the United States should do. Keep Pe-runa in the house. Use it for coughs, colds, la gripe and other climatic affections of winter, and there will be no other ailments in the house. Such families should provide themselves with a copy of Dr. Hertman's free book entitled Better Carrath. Address Dr. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio. Southern Girl SHOES.
