TAFT AND WRIGHT
Named for Promotion Anent Vacancy in Cabinet.
ROOT VACATES OFFICE
Resignation Was Placed in President's Hands August 19th—Will Nominally, Hold, However, Until January 1st.
A special dispatch from Oyster Bay says: General Luke E. Wright, of Memphis, Tenn., will succeed Judge Taft as governor general of the Philippines when the latter becomes secretary of war next January, in succession to Elijah Root.
President Roosevelt Tuesday afternoon authorized the Associated Press to make the announcement that the port had been offered to General Wright and that he had accepted it.
General Wright is now a member of the Philippines commission and vice governor of the islands. He is a life long democrat. President Roosevelt spoke in terms of high praise of General Wright's ability and fitness for the position of governor general. He entertains a satire regard for him both personally and officially. Both the president and Secretary Root regard General Wright as a man of proved executive ability, his services as a member of the Philippines commission, having been of a distinguished character. During Governor Taft's sojourn in this country General Wright was acting governor general and his conduct of the office was a source of congratulation to the administration.
General Wright is popular not only with Americans in the Philippines, but also with the Filipinos, who hold him only second in their estimation to Governor Taft.
Secretary Root, under date of August 19, presented his resignation formally to the president. The resignation was accepted by the president with the understanding that Mr. Root continue as secretary of war at least until the first of January next.
President Roosevelt Tuesday authorized the following statement:
"The president some months ago tendered the secretaryship of war to Judge Taft and at that time it was arranged that he would succeed Secretary Root. Secretary Root will go out of office some time in January and Judge Taft will assume the duties of the office shortly afterward."
The president also authorized the publication of the correspondence between him and Secretary Root concerning the latter's resignation. In his letter of resignation Mr. Root says he wishes to retire to private life and unlikes his resignation should be in the apppresident's hands before his departure for England to attend the sessions of the Alaskan boundary commission. Mr. Root concludes:
"I shall carry with me unabated loyalty to your administration, confidence in the sound conservatism and patriotic unselfishness of your policy and enduring gratitude for the kindness and consideration with which your frendship has honored me."
To this letter the president replied at length, saying in part:
"It is hard indeed for me to accept your resignation, and I do so not only with keen personal regret, but with a lively understanding of the gap your withdrawal will create in public life. My sense of personal loss is very great, and yet my sense of the loss to the nation as a whole, is even greater. You have been over four years secretary of war. I wonder if you yourself realize how much you have accomplished during that period.
"Your duties have included more than merely the administration of the department and reorganization of the army on an effective basis. You have also been the head of the department which dealt with the delicate problems involved in our possession of the Philippine islands, and your success in dealing with this part of the work has been as signal as your success in dealing with the purely military problems.
A SHOWER OF TOADS.
Heavy Rain In Salt Lake City Was Accompanied by Frogs.
A rain of toad frogs practically blocked traffic in Salt Lake City, Utah. Sunday, for half an hour just before noon.
A light rain was falling all the morning. Just before 11:30 o'clock this changed into quite a hard rain, which was accompanied by a large number of toads.
Pedestrians who did not mind the rain, were more than averse to taking up a collection of frogs, and until the unusual shower coaxed the frogs had the residue to themselves.
HUMBERTS CONVICTED.
Most Sensational and Greatest Swindling Trial in Paris Comes to Close with 'Verdict of Gulity.
One of the greatest criminal trials in the history of France culminated at Paris Saturday night when the jury in the court of assizes rendered a verdict of guilty against Therese and Frederic Humber and Romain and Emile d'Aurignac.
After a brief deliberation the court sentenced Therese and Frederic Humber each to five years and to pay a fine of 100 francs. Emile d'Aurignac to three years and Romain d'Aurignac to two years.
The verdict was reached after the jury had been out four and a half hours. When the verdict was pronounced, Therese and Frederic Humber wept, embracing each other.
Therese Humbert seemed to be hopeful until the last, maintaining that the jury was certain to bring in a verdict of acquittal. Even after condemnation her emotion was only momentary. She soon resumed her self-passion. Turning to the military guard, she indicated her readiness to go back to the 'cells of the Conquereric prison.
Although Therese did not indicate whence Regnier's millions came, it was apparently part of her plan to create the impression that Regnier had received a vast sum for inducing Marshal Bazaline to surrender Metz. The inconclusive character of the revelations was shown by the fact that the court did not take the slightest judicial cognizance of them and immediately submitted the case to the jury. The jury likewise treated the revelation as a subterfuge.
MOTORMAN SHOOTS PHYSICIAN.
In Seeking to Employ Mrs. Potts, Theford Ran Afoul of Husband. At Rome, Ga., Saturday night J. D Potts, a well known young motorman on the City Electric railway, shot and very probably fatally wounded Dr. M. A. Theford, who is the manufacturer of a well known liver medicine. Theford was seeking to employ Mrs. Potts in his laboratory. Before her marriage Mrs. Potts was in the employ of Theford and between that time and this Theford is alleged to have circulated damaging reports concerning her. This Theford denies, but evidently this did not satisfy Potts, who became very much enraged when he heard that Theford was seeking to employ his wife, and when he, and Theford met Saturday afternoon a fierce fight occurred.
This was thought to be the end of the matter, until they met again Saturday night, when Potts whipped out his gun and shot Theford. Several shots were fired, one taking effect in the thigh and one in the abdomen. The shooting created intense excitement in the city. Potts is a young man of excellent reputation and has always enjoyed the confidence of the citizens of Rome. Theford is quite wealthy. He is prominently connected and has taken quite an active interest in local politics of late.
A very sensational feature of this story, a detail which cannot be verified, is that Thedford is alleged to have called at Potts' house in disguise. It is stated that he tied his long flowing beard behind his ears and blacked his face like a negro. Just why this was done is not known, but there is a persistent rumor abroad that such is a fact. The entire affair is rather mysterious.
CONVICTED OF SOLICITING BRIBE
State Senator Sullivan, of Missouri,
Sentenced to Pay a Fine.
At Jefferson City, Mo., State Senator
William P. Sullivan, accused of soliciting a bribe for three votes on the anti-alum bill during the session of the legislature last winter, was found guilty and his punishment fixed at $100 fine.

SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. AUGUST 29. 1903.
WILSON ANSWERS BUTLER
Interesting Passage Between Ex-Senator and Secretary of the Agricultural Department.
A Washington special says: Former Senator M. C. Butler, of South Carolina, in an interview published in New York Monday morning, takes Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to task for his recent criticism of the men who are manipulating the present corner in cotton.
He says that Messrs. Brown and Kayne, to whom Secretary Wilson refers as gamblers, have done more for the production of cotton in a few months than the department of agriculture has done in ten years.
Secretary Wilson, referring to the criticism of Former Senator Butler, said:
"I hope the business men of whom he speaks will see to it that these prices continue until the cotton growers sell the cotton crop.
"If that would be done I will take off my hat to General Butler and say to him that I regard him as a general public benefactor, who has been able to see further ahead into the future than we poor follows of the department of agriculture.
"But if, on the other hand, it should occur that the price of cotton is dropped when the planter is ready to market his new crop down to 7 or 8 cents, instead of 12 or 15, then, of course, I shall still adhere to my opinion that the manipulation of the present cotton corner by the gamblers of whom I spoke is doing infinite mischief."
CRUM WAS GOLD-BRICKED.
Charleston's Colored Collector of Customs Coralled by Swindlers.
In addition to his various troubles as collector of the port at Charleston, W. D. Crum has allowed the famous Daniels gang of New York operators of "get rich quick" schemes to rone him in.
Another Charleston victim is Alonzo C. Cambridge, colored, a cigar maker by trade.
It is not known how much money Crum and Cambridge are out of pocket, but the list of victims in the possession of the assistant district attorney of New York state, who is prosecuting the case against Daniels, includes the names of Collector Crum and Cambridge.
MOB MEMBER SENTENCED.
First Conviction Growing Out of the Riots at Danville, Illinois.
At Danville, Ill., Tuesday, Winfield Baker, formerly of the mountains of Kentucky, was convicted in the circuit court, of assault to murder Sheriff Whitlock. He was sentenced to a term of from one to fourteen years. This is the first conviction and trial of a member of the mob that attacked the Danville jail the latter part of July, after having lynched the negro, James Metcalf, and burned his body. Inc. trial of eight others accused of being in the mob was begun late in the afternoon. Bessie Lodge, the woman accused of inciting the mob, is too ill to be tried and the trial was postponed.
MORE APPALLING ACCOUNTS.
Corpses Left Lying in the Streets of Kruschevo are Gnawed by Dogs. Monastir, European Turkey, Tuesday, August 25. The once beautiful city of Kruschevo is a heap of ruins. The women and children are homeless, exposed to the weather and famine. The town is rendered uninhabitable by the odor of corpses, which are being gnawed by dogs and pigs. The Turkish authorities are refusing to allow them to be removed under the pretext that an inquest will be held.
NEW DUTY FOR BAGGAGEMEN.

Mortal Remains of "Bill Arp" Consigned to Last Resting Place. The funeral of Major Charles H. Smith (Bill Arp) took place from the First Presbyterian church in Gartersville Ga., Wednesday morning, conducted by Rev. H. G. White, pastor of the church, assisted by Rev. Sam P. Jones, the well known evangelist. Pursuant to the wish of the family, in keeping with Major Smith's views of life, there was nothing of an ostentaticus nature, but the funeral was a simple home affair. Many beautiful noral offerings were received.
BUTCHERY OF BABES
Frightful Turkish Atrocities Kept Up and Intensified.
HORRORS·UNPARALLELED
Notwithstanding Sultan's Cringe Before Russian Czar, Massacres, Rapine and Incendiarism Hold Full Sway in Macedonia.
Advices from Sofia, Bulgaria, under date of Monday, state that the Turks are reported to have massacred all the women and children in twenty-two villages of the districts of Florina and Monastir and to have afterwards burned the villages. They are also alleged to have killed a number of prisoners.
With the rumors of massacres and the murder of prisoners in Monastir now authenticated, the general situation is considered as fast becoming intolerable. Official and diplomatic circles alike are concerned, having every reason to fear that only a part of the horrors enacted in the interior of Macedonia have come to light as yet.
The revolutionary committees are doing their utmost to force the hands of the Bulgarian government and the immediate outlook is exceedingly serious. It appears that the Turks have obtained the upper hand in the vilayet of Monastir and the insurgents are planning to remove the center of the activity close to the Bulgarian frontiers. Additional dispatches received in Sofia, Monday, from the disturbed area are exceedingly gloomy. From Adrianople comes news which denotes the extension of the revolutionary outbreak; from Monastir the news of Turkish victories accompanied by barbarous excess.
While many of the reports remain without confirmation, sufficient authentic details are forthcoming to cause the authorities the greatest anxiety. According to the Sofia Dnavnik, the Turks committed unspeakable atrocities at Krushevo.
The mutilated corpses of nineteen women and children were found in one building; pieces of bodies had been thrown into the streets. Fifteen of the principal merchants of the town were killed and their heads exhibited on poles.
At Monastir the churches were demolished, the houses sacked and the town is now in a heap of ashes. The populace fled to the hills, where they are in a starving condition.
The Dnevnik also asserts that a general massacre has taken place in the wnole village of Monastir. Nearly all of the villages have been destroyed. The treacherous murder of eighty insurgent prisoners by the guards near Monastir has made an especially bad impression in Sofia. Many rumors are current of massacres in the city of Adrianople, but confirmation is lacking. The situation there, however, undoubtedly is serious. The population is afraid to leave the houses. The prisons are full and the vail has taken private houses to be usen as jails. When the Russian consul protested at the situation, the vail is reported to have answered that he was powerless against that fanatical population.
Reports from Monastir, authenticated by the Russian and Austrian consuls, give horrifying details of the massacres and atrocities. At the village of Armensko the Turks destroyed 150 houses out of a total of 157 and massacred every man, woman and child. The women were subjected to the most terrible atrocities by the soldiers. Eighty revolutionaries, captured at Krushevc, who were sent in the direction of Monastir in chains, were slaughtered by their guards.
RICHMOND CAR STRIKE ENDS.
Trouble Lasted Slxty-Nine Days and
Cost Approximately $255,000
Cost Approximately $255,000.
The strike of street railway employees at Richmond, Va., was officially declared off shortly after noon Monday.
It had lasted just sixty-nine days, and is estimated to have cost the street car company $125,000; the strikers, in loss of wages, $50,000; the state, by reason of the necessity for troops, $75,000, and the city for special police, etc., $5,000.
COLOMBIANS TO RECONSIDER.
Senate to Resume Consideration of the Subject of Canal Treaty.
the Subject of Canal Treaty.
Unofficial, but what is considered entirely reliable information, has been received by Dr. Herran, the Colombian charge d'affaires in Washington, indicating an intention on the part of the Colombian senate to resume consideration of the subject of a Panama canal treaty in place of the one disapproved by that body on the 12th instant. This shows a decided change in the arm of affairs and the matter may yet be carried to a successful conclusion.
In First Race Swift Reliance Proves Too Much for Lipton's Muchly Vaunted Cup Challenger.
A New York dispatch says: In a splendid 12 to 15 knot breeze, over a windward and leeward course of thirty miles, the gallant sloop Reliance, in Saturday's race, beat Shamrock III on commanding style by exactly nine minutes, actual time, or seven minutes and three seconds after deducting the one minute and fifty-seven seconds which the defender concedes to Sir Thomas Lipton's third challenger on account of her sail area as at present measured.
It was a royal water fight for the ancient trophy, which carries with it its yachting supremacy of the world and by a strange coincidence the first victory in the cup series of 1903 occurred on the fifty-second anniversary of the day on which the old schooner America captured it in her famous race around the Isle of Wight, off the English coast.
The Rellance beat the British boat three minutes and twenty-four seconds in the thresh to windward and five minutes and thirty-six seconds in the run down the wind.
The nautical sharps, who had already made up their minds on Thursday that the Reliance could take the measure of the challenger in any kind of weather, regard Saturday's test as conclusive, although they hardly anticipated so overwhelming a victory. The race even dampened the ardor of Sir Thomas, who insisted, after Thursday's fluke, that his confidence in the beautiful craft designed by Fife, was greater than ever. Still, like a true sportsman, he does not acknowledge defeat and hopes for better luck next time.
DEATH GRIPS LORD SALISBURY.
Great English Statesman Has Joined the Silent Majority.
A special from London says: Lord Sallisbury died peacefully at 9:05 o'clock Saturday night. For forty-eight hours the end was seen to be inevitable, the great frame of England's former premier being sustained only by the constant use of oxygen. Even the administration of oxygen failed of effect as the evening advanced, and from the valley and enshrouded the from th valley and enshrouded the dull red walls of Hatfield house the distinguished statesman breathed his last.
Viscount Cranborne, who now assumes the title of marquis of Sallisbury, immediately notified King Edward and Queen Alexandra and others, including Lord Edward Cecil, the soldier son of Lord Sallisbury, who is now in Egypt, and who was the only child of the marquis absent from the death bed. Soon messages of condolence began coming in and the little telegraph office at Hatfield was swamped with unprecedented business.
The death of Lord Sallisbury occurred on the fifteenth anniversary of his entry into public life as a member of the house of commons from Stamford.
ROOSEVELT THANKED.
Birmingham Citizens' Alliance Approves Action in Miller Case. The Citizens' Alliance, composed of business men and others, at Birmingham, Ala., has sent the following communication to President Roosevelt:
"To His Excellency, Theodore Roosevelt, President of the United States—Sir: At the last meeting of the Citizen's Alliance of Birmingham, Ala., a non-political organization of business and professional men, your action in restoring to his position the book binder in the government printing office, who had been discharged by the public printer because of his expulsion from a trades union and the position you have since taken, viz: That men who are employed in any department of the government service and who do not care to be members of any labor organization, must be protected, were very heartily commended.
"In obedience to instructions by the alliance we hereby tender you the sincere thanks of the body."
PAGSENGER COACH SUNDERED.
Stock Car Crashes Into Train on Crossing, Injuring Sixty People. Thirty or more passengers were seriously injured, some perhaps fatally, by a peculiar collision at the junction of the Illinois Central and Lake Eric and Western railroad near Bloomington, Ill., Monday. While a passenger train on the latter road was passing over the crossing, a car of stock, which was being pushed by a switch engine, broke loose and dashed into the side of the passenger train with terrific force, breaking the coach in two and injuring nearly every one of the sixty occupants.
Promply Yeilds to Every Demand Made by Russia.
Murderers of Consul Executed and Officers Implicated are Dismissed and Handed Over to the Law. Reforms are Instituted.
A special from St. Petersburg, under Sunday's date, says: The Russian Black sea squadron, which was ordered to Turkish waters, and which arrived at Inlada, eastern European Turkey, August 19, to support Russia's demands on the sultan, growing out of the assassination of M. Rostkowski, Russian consul at Monastir, has been recalled to Sebastapol, the squadron's point of departure. The squadron sailed soon after.
The recall followed a notification from the porte that the sultan had ordered all the Russian demands to be complied with.
The dispatch received from M. Zirovieff, Russian ambassador, at Constantinople, announce that the sultan has yielded completely to Russia's demands.
The news has reached St. Petersburg, from Brussels, that the porte has requested Belgium to nominate four officers for the Turkish gendarmie.
Turkey Very Prompt.
A Constantinople dispatch says: The porte's reply, accepting the Russian demands, was delivered two hours after the presentation of the Russian note—a promptitude most unusual in the history of Turkish diplomacy. Tewfik Pasha, the foreign minister, and Naum Patha thereupon called on M. Zinovleff, the Russian ambassador, and requested the withdrawal of the Russian squadron from Turkish waters, on the ground that its presence tended to encourage the insurrection.
On the receipt of a favorable reply from St. Petersburg, M. Zinovleff telegraphed the order of withdrawal to Admiral Krieger, commanding the Russian squadron at Inlada.
A rumor has been current that the sultan appealed to the German emperor to use his good offices at St. Petersburg in favor of the recall of the Russian squadron.
Pacification Measures.
The porte has taken the following measures to fulfill the demands of the Russian government, according to a dispatch from the Russian 'ambassador at Constantinople:
"In addition to the condemnation and execution of M. Rostkowski's murderers and the punishment of their accomplices, those officers who made disrespectful allusions to M. Rostkowski are dismissed from the service. A careful search is being made for persons who fired at the consul's carriage.
"All the officials, twenty-four in number, whose names were handed to the porte as objects of unfavorable comment by the Russian ambassador, are relieved of their posts and handed over to justice. All private persons mentioned in the same list as guilty of various offenses will likewise be tried.
"Ismal Ruki Pasha, the chief of police at Palanka, province of Uskub, is restored to his post."
"The persons under arrest for accusing Mussulmans of outrage and abuse are liberated."
BIG BATTLESHIP LAUNCHED.
The Cruiser Pennsylvania Leaves the Ways at Cramp Ship Yards.
An occasion which will be memorable in the history of Pennsylvania transpired Saturday, when the giant armored cruiser Pennsylvania was launched at the yards of the William Cramp Ship and Engine Building Company.
Under the prow of the Pennsylvania was erected a timber superstructure, from which nearly 2,000 specially invited guests witnessed the launching.
RELENTLESS WAR ON VAGRANTS
Authorities in Albany, Ga., Begin Putting New Law Into Operation. The authorities of Dougherty county, Ga., have wasted no time in beginning operations under the new vagrancy law. Albany has been cursed for years by a horde of idlers who refuse to work, and all efforts to get rid of them have failed. Wednesday afternoon Sheriff Edwards organized a posse and assisted by the police, proceeded to make a clean sweep of the city. Many of the vagrants were taken by surprise, and arrests were made by the wholesale

SATURDAY AUGUST 29, 1903.
THE Grand Lodge of Odd-Fellows which closed its labors at Atlanta last week was in better condition financially than it had been for years, and much of the credit therefore is due to P.G.M., W.A.Pledger as treasurer and his labor with the executive board, a larger balance being turned over to his successor than ever before by a Grand Treasurer. As chairman of the arrangement committee he worked earnestly and zealously and was successful in carying out the interesting public ceremonies. His paper, the Atlanta Age was selected as the official organ of the G. U.O. of O.F. for two years.
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT's letter to Gov. Durbin of Indiana commending his forceful action at Evanville in dealing with a mob which undertook to take the law in its own hands, thereby showing their contempt for the courts of justice and for law and order, has become a memorable document. The President's letter has had the effect of stimulating other Governors to endorse the Indiana Governor's action in having the military to deal summarily with a mob that tried to run the States business, by hanging a dying and probably worthless colored man charged with the crime of murder. The President calls upon all good citizens, black and, white to show their abhorence of all crimes by assisting in apprehending criminals and stop the crime of lynching will have great effect and will have a tendency to check the horrible crimes which are disgracing our country and civilization.
It is charged that the U. S. naval officers are discriminating against colored men in the navy. That recruiting officers will not enlist them, and that those already in the navy are being discriminated against by the officers, and this being observed by the heretofore honest Jackies on the vessels they have commenced to show their prejudice also. Unless the navy is disciplined in this matter, it will become the duty of the colored men of the nation representing 10,000,000 people to fight this unreasonable position of the navy by contending for another Naval Academy with a view of graduating colored officers, and to have at least now, a number of vessels manned by colored crews. It is a great wrong the Republic is committing against one-sixth of its population who are loyal and devoted to its principles, in permitting officers who are paid and supported from the general revenue of the government, to show their official prejudice against its faithful, true and tried colored citizens.
HON. JUDSON W. LYONS. Georgia's National Committeeman is in great demand as an orator and race thinker in the North and West. His last speech was in Maryland, on the fortiest anniversary of the race's emancipation. The Washington Star in reporting Mr. Lyons' speech saws:
"He showed by facts and figures that the colored man had come up to the highest expectation of his most ardent friends, and asserted with great emphasis that if the ballot had failed in the hands of the colored American it was not because of inherent weakness or venality on his part; that as he had been the bravest soldier in the army of bread winners, fairly making his section of the country blossom and bloom with prosperity, he had been absolutely self-denying and earnest in his maintenance of his right to vote—to cast one ballot and have it honestly counted, as long as he had any show whatever in the world to do that; that no class of Americans had shown a higher sense of patriotism in the exercise of the ballot than he had, and that now and at all times, as long as there was any hope for the right, whether in commerce, finance or what not, the colored man was ready to make the highest sacrifice for the honor of his country. In every war that had swept across the bosom of the republic the colored soldier had gallantly fought.
"In the seven years' war for independence he had followed the warring fortunes of the "father of his country" until peace and independence were proclaimed to mankind. In every subsequent war he had fought and died upon bloody battlefields that the state might live, and the bleaching bones of colored soldiery lay in every commonwealth of the republic from Massachusetts to Texas.
"Continuing the speaker referred in denunciatory language to the general lawlessness now prevalent in the country and warmly command-
ed President Roosvelt's letter on that subject. Mr. Lyons also paid has respect to John Temple.Graves for the latter's utterances in this regard.
"He advised the colored people to separate themselves completely—a thing which he knew they were doing at present—from the criminal class of the race, and to throw their influence with the officers of the law for the punishment of crime, whether the criminal be a white man or a black man.
"These sentiments met with the hearty approval of the vast audience, evidenced by their loud applause and great cheering."
The electrib line of street cars run and controlled soley by colored business men of Jacksonville, is now in operation. The Metropolis says the following of the line:
"The North Jacksonville Street Railway will be ready for business next Saturday, and the Company will find that the colored people will liberally patronize it.
"The company is the result of the enterprise of leading colored people, and the line penetrates a thickly setled portion of the city."
"The new road begins at the corner of Bay and Clay streets, runs north on Clay to State and thence to the King's road, to Durkee's shell road, to the city limits. The new cars have arrived and are up-to-date in every particular. The motormen and conductors will be colored men.
Berean Convention.
The Berean Baptist Sunday School Convention convened at Darien, Ga., last week in the 2nd A. B. Church. Promptly at 10 o'clock on Friday morning, the president, Rev. R. H. Thomas, called the body to order. The welcome address was delivered by Mrs. L. D. Lewis, of Darien, and was responded to by Mrs. Julia Woodruff of 1st Bryan Baptist Church, Savannah; after which the officers were elected as follows: Rev. R. H. Thomas, College, Ga., Pres.; Rev. H. L. Heywood, Savannah, Vice-Pres.; L. G. Fleming, Savannah, Recording Secy.; J. H. Moultrie, Savannah, Corresponding Secy.; Mrs. M. M. Mills, Savannah, Treas.; Mrs. L. D. Lewis, Darien, and Miss Harriet Delagall, Harris Neck, Auditors, and a Finance committee consisting of Miss Carrie B. Hendrickson, and Messrs. R. M. Davis and O. F. Waters.
It was a source of great regret to the convention that Mr. W. N. Nelson who had served as corresponding secretary for several years tendered his resignation as he had accepted a new field of labor and could no longer serve. Much good work has been done by this excellent young man, and the convention expressed its appreciation thereof. The introductory sermon was preached by Rev. S. Beanford of Waycross. The annual address of the president was inspiring and full of thought. The Sunday school address was delivered by the writer on Friday night, and a solo was sweetly sung by Misses Willie D. Browne, and Anna O. Newsome, and some useful institute work was set forth by Rev. J. M. Jones. On Saturday night an expression and song service was conducted by Mr. C. F. Waters, who announced to the citizens that on that night he would sing a song in memory of a well known and beloved man who at one time was a native of Darien. Of course the citizens were out in large numbers to hear, and Mr. Waters beautifully rendered the song "Will There Be Any Star In My Crown" and announced that it was in honor of the lamented and beloved, Rev. L. B. Maxwell. Requests from many had the same repeated on Sunday at the mass meeting. At this service commendable papers were rendered on Sunday Work, among which was a very good one by Miss Frances Tropey of Savannah, and a beautiful duet by Mrs. K. A. Tyson and Mr. J. E. Johnson.
At night the Rev. H. M. Raifford, D. D., preached a doctrinal sermon that was just to the point, and while he expounded the doctrine of the Baptist Church, in a forceful manner, he did so without refringing on any other denomination or doctrine. The convention did some excellent work during the year. About $24.00, were expended for Bibles and other literature for the Sunday School within its bounds that were needy. The next session of the convention will be held at Waycross, Ga., at First A. B. Church, Rev. S. Beauford, pastor. To show its appreciation of the untiring labor of President Thomas, the convention assisted in sending him to the National Convention.
The people of Darion as is always true of them, left no stone unturned to make the delegates happy. Through the efforts of Rev Thomas, Mr. J. A. Handy and Mrs. M. S. Grant, the rail roads extended the limit of the tickets and most of the delegates remained over on Monday and enjoyed a day's outings at the great summer resort of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Hutchinson. THE TRINES' representative was tenderly cared for at the ideal home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Graham.
Rev. U. L. Lawton of Robertsville, S. O., after contending for two years with a malady that would not yield to the skill of physicians died in fall triumph of the christian faith on the 4 inst. Rev. Lawton was the first colored baptist preacher in this section and one of the foremost in the organization of the association to which he belonged. He was an earnest and faithful gospel minister. His life of forty years has been spent among his people and his church. The church has lost an able and conscientious minister. Not only the church but the community at large suffers a great loss in his death but we trust our loss is heaven's gain. He leaves a wife and several children and a host of friends to mourn his loss.

Social Circles.
Mrs. Jas. R. Davis entertained on Tuesday afternoon in honor of Mrs. George Stoney of Augusta, Ga., and Miss Florence Clyde of Charleston, S. C. The time was spent quite pleasantly. Games of different kinds were played, such as love story which was won by Miss Clyde, and a game of music by Miss Alice Ellis. In a grateful manier souvenirs were presented by the hostess to Miss Clyde and Ellis, and at a late hour the guests were shown into the dining room where impromptu refreshments were served. The ladies were greatly amused at the gypsy, Miss Georgia A. Hurd, in her fortune telling. Prof. Williams' orchestra furnished music for the happy event. The ladies present were Mrs George Stoney, Miss Florence Clyde, Mrs. J. Habersham, Mrs. M. Branham, Mrs. G. Middleton, Mrs. F. Curley, Miss Alice Ellis, Miss Helen Ellis, Miss Georgia Hurd, and Miss Anna Rannair.
At the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey, Mrs. Jennie Dobecle was very pleasantly surprise on Thursday night last week, led by Miss M. V. Houston and Mrs. T. D. Merritt. She was entertained by the East End Quartette of whom were Messers Wm. Norman, C. McGrath, J. H. Coston, J. Sanders, also by the headband by Messers Vardy, Life, Fontan and Brogadale. Others present were Misses Lillian Adderson, Nora Payne; Meadames L. A. Speed Florance Gardder; Messers George Gilmore, Joseph Manley, S. S. Jones, E. R. Williams.

navy for thirty-five years. He has a

that of a dog, and that It Is bis last

home to stay, ete.
‘There was a time when the clgar

‘uttered with such fervor and positive
assurance, but for years past he has
paid no heed to them, for the reason

A STORY IN MYTHOLOGY.
“Tell us about Venus,” sald one
cherub. “No, I want to hear about
Cupid. He's sitting In the hall on
the stalrpost. I just loves him,” the
other cherub added.
“You shall hear abéut Venus aud
Cupid, too,” sald the Sweetest Mo
ther. “Cupld was the son of Venus.
Some’ of the old fables say that Ve-
nus was the daughter of Jupiter and
Dione. Others say that Venus sprang
from the foam of the sea. The
zephyrs wafted her along the waves
to the Isle of Cyprus and from there
took her to the assembly of the gods
on Mount Olympia. All tho gode
were charmed with her beauty, and
each one wanted to marry her. But
Jupiter gave her to Vulcan because
he thotght Vulcan was a fine fel-
low and deservgd a reward for forg-
ing thunderbolts so successfully. And
that is the way it Rappened that the
most beaut#ul of all the goddesses
became the wife of the most {ll-fav-

thing that fs told about Venus is that
her girdle, which was called Cestus,
had the power of inspiring love. Her

OU have come to tell me,
in short, that you do not
love me after all."
"Great heavens, Malsie, how did you know?"
"Never mind, it scarcely matters, does it? The fact remains that I do."
"The speaker glanced across a stretch of water at her feet to where the trees drooped and kissed their own reflections on the surface of the shadowy pool."
"I feel such a brute, such an unutterable cur," her companion exclaimed miserably; "but you are so true yourself I—I can't deceive you. I admire you, respect you beyond words, and until lately I believed that I loved you more than I could ever love anything else in life—but—"
He stumbled, and sitting down on the trunk of a fallen tree, buried his face in his hands.
"Yes, go on, dear," the girl said, and rising, she came and knelt beside him, clasping her hands upon his shoulder as if she felt her touch must tell him how infinitely she understood, "but now—?"
"Now I believe it can't have been love at all. Oh—if she didn't care for me so awfully in return, believe me I would have gone through with it—loving her—"
"Hush," Maisle cried sharply, "never say that; it—it hurts."
He raised his head and looked at her in surprise, not grasping her meaning.
"Go on," she said, and rested her head against his sleeve, that he might not watch her face, "go on, dear."
"I don't know what it is about, Esme; there is nothing of the calm knowledge of her worth that I had—no, have with you, and yet"—this he shot out defiantly, "she is splendid, too."
"You are right, she is," Malsle acquiesced.
"I am utterly carried off my feet by her—I can't think of anything else. Is it madness, Malsle, or what?"
"It is love," she said gently, "the real, true, genuine thing—not the—the simple affection you felt for me."
"But I was so proud of possessing you," the man continued, wonderingly.
"and Heaven knows why you cared for me."
He said this vehemently, and she even smiled.
"I am sure Heaven does," she said. "and so shall we both some day. It has served its turn, whatever the reason. But, dear, don't try to explain any more. It is enough that I know, and understand. God bless you for being so frank with me; you might have left me to find out, but you are too honest. Thank God we did not discover it too late. Don't stay now. See, I am going to give you back your ring at once and have done with it. It's- it's a little babyshall, Bob, but- but you will get a new one for her, won't you- and- not too like it?" Her smile was positively radiant now, and she rose and stretched out both hands toward him, her little half hoop of diamonds held in the left. He had never seen her lock so lovely before, and it had a strange effect upon him; it almost wring his heart. It was unlike the vivid beauty of Esme; it seemed more something below the surface shining forth.
He stood up unsteadily and dumblly took the ring; for one instant he hesitated, then flung it into the depths of the silent pool.
"Sacred to my memory," Matsle said simply, "thank you, from my heart. It is strange, but that makes me content. Good-bye."
The man took her hands impetuously, as if he had much that he would say, but she checked his words with a glance.
"Remember, when we chance to meet it will be all right. I shall always be thinking 'God bless you both.' Good-bye, dear."
She turned, and ran lightly up the woodland path; at the bend he saw the glimmer of her white dress disappearing in the twilight.
"It's difficult, all the same," he said, sitting down with a heavy sigh; "I shall feel, a brute to the end of my days, and as to meeting her-bah, what a fool I've been. How could I make such a mistake? But I suppose it was a case of propinquity! But she is too much of an angel for me, and I believe I was half afraid of her for it. I remember telling her so once."
Next morning when Annette went in to call her young mistress she came to an abrupt standstill at the threshold, for Malsie was not in bed, nor even undressed; she sat at her writing table with her head bowed upon her arms, still in the white dress that had glimmered in the twilight.
"Gone to sleep, writing," murmured the maid, creeping behind her chair as awed wooden "Well, I never."
The letter Maisie had been busy with had been pushed aside; it ran as follows:
"Dearest Neil: I am so sorry you have been anxious at not hearing from me for so long, but I think I did write and tell you Dr. Forbes said there was no need to worry, my heart, trouble would decrease steadily with reasonable care. I have no excuse for my silence except that I have been too mindfully outrageously happy to do anything so unselfish as write letters this summer. I am quite happy still, but I have awakened to deficiencies, and a desire to do better. Your letter of congratulation was very sweet, but, indeed, indeed you must not think so highly of me. All my life I seem to have been haunted by a reputation for 'being good.' I cannot help knowing for it has been said to me so often by those dear ones who have come to me for help. I hope and pray that I have been a little use sometimes—one never knows, I crave for nothing much as to make life easy to others, and very simple. But, Neil, you will think this strange, perhaps; it is very dull to be thought exceedingly good in this world; to be put up on a pedestal and worshipped at a distance is lonely work at best; and that has been my life! I am sure that is where the perfect beauty of Heaven will lie—we shall walk all upon one level, closely, no one being deemed better than another—thank God."
Here the writing ceased; the pen had been set resolutely inside as if there was no more to be said; words could not go beyond this, and Maisie had completed her mission of making life easy for all around her, and very simple, by going where to be good is to walk alone no longer, and "no one being is deemed better than another—thank God."—New York News.
"ARRIVISM"-A NEW WORD.
Stands For the American Doctrine of to
"Get There."
Any familiarity with Continental journalism and periodical literature, says a writer in Serilbner's Magazine, brings the reader in these days face to face at every turn with the newly-coined word, "arrivism," and with dissertations on the modern tendency which it represents. The word is a very ugly one, and the thing which it stands for certainly has very ugly aspects; but it is doubtful if we can dismiss as insignificant either the one or the other, doubtful whether we can do so in our quality of Americans especially. The conservative European, who is rasped and abraded by the general rawness resulting from the doctrine that the most of the time spent in preparation for the achievement of the ends of life is time wasted, and that the wise course to pursue is simply to "get there," and to learn by doing or enjoying instead of learning to do or enjoy, does not hesitate to say that it is the American and his Americanism that are primarily responsible for the doctrine. And he was right. We have, in effect, a new way of regarding human existence and the human career, in this particular. We are inclined to apologize for this new way at times, and at times to assert with unnecessary aggressiveness that it is the only right way. In reality, we probably ought to do neither. The matter is still on trial. Whether "arrivism" he huntsly possible when pushed to its logical limits, whether it will give us more out of life or less, is what we do not yet know and cannot yet tell. But it is the contemporaneous problem, and one surely calling for meditation and experiment.
Statistics of Night Horos.
Eight hundred night herons are wandering free about the United States, each wearing on one leg an aluminum band inscribed "Smithsonian Institution" and a number. If any person shoots one of these birds he should write to Paul Bartsch, biologist of the Smithsonian, telling where it was and how large was the bird. The night heron is one of the most beautiful of the aquatic birds of America, but scientists know less about it than they are satisfied with. Last year Mr. Bartsch discovered several breeding places of these birds, on the Potomac in the District of Columbia. Recently he visited the place with several assistants in the night and the $80 aluminum bands were fastened to the legs of as many young herons. Science is anxious to know how long the night heron lives, where it spends the winters and how much of the country it covers in its wanderings. It is believed that by the time a few of the numbered aluminum bands have been reported some of these facts will have been established to the satisfaction of the ornithologists.—Cleveland (Ohio) Plain Dealer.
Reminder of Old Times
A rich man who has joined the multitude in New York since his quick fortune came to him was entertaining friends at dinner the other night. The service was magnificent and so was the dinner. The wife, gorgeously clad, regained the table. During a lull in conversation the rich man watched a servant who was dexterously removing crumbs from the table. Then he looked down the glittering table at his jeweled wife and remarked: "Sadle, remember when you used to shake the tablecloth out of the back door to the hens?"
Doctor's Recipe For Lemonade
Doctor's Recipe For Lemonade.
Here is a scientific recipe for lemonade, advocated by the medical profession: Wash the lemons thoroughly, slice thin and peel all. Cover with sugar, allowing the sugar to become saturated with the lemon juice by gently pressing the slices of lemon with a spoon. Then add water, slowly, stirring all the while. Ice, if used, should be used sparingly. One-third of a lemon to a glass is about right for home use.
CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT.
A CHINESE FABLE.
The Chinese have many fables which convey a moral teaching like the following!
The crows and the owls, having their respective colonies adjoining, were so near and so dear to each other that there was no love lost on the boundary line. They hated each other with a hate passing that of neighbors. By day, when the owls slept, the crows tormented them, and by night, when the crows slept, the owls were not found responsive in this neighborly solitude. The slaughter among the crows was great, and one morning, after counting the stain, a many-wintered crow shook his head and said that the only way to preserve their peace was to exterminate owls. He then directed his friends to peck him and pull most of his feathers out. They did so, and it was a most badly handled looking crow that put his head on one side and winked his eye and strutted off to play his game upon the owls. Arrived at their dwelling, he asked them to take pity on him, as he was in a sorry plight, and the Vermillion bird forgive him for ever having set up as a crow—a degraded creature that attacks one of its own kind, pecks it almost to death, and then turns it out. They heard his tale and pitied him. Very soon he was comfortably lodged in the owls' domicile, where he lay low till his feathers were grown again. Then one morning as the winter was coming on he set to work and piled great heaps of brushwood before the mouth of the owls' dwelling, saying that he foresaw a heavy snowstorm and wished to protect them. When everything was complete, the wily crow, watching his opportunity when the owls were within, snatched a burning brand from a peasant's fire and set the funeral pyre in a blaze. Then, as they flew out and were scorched, he stood with his legs apart holding his sides with laughter at their dying struggles.—Our Young Folks.
PRINCE.
I know a little dog who once went to a Surprise Party. He really did, and carried his own refreshments, too, like the other folks.
His name was Prince, and he was a lively little fellow, with a glossy black coat and shiny brown eyes. His master said he was a spaniel, part terrier, and the rest was plain dog; but the little Prince gawked his master's slippers and upset his mistress' workbasket with as much freedom as though he were the best born puppy in the land.
On the night of the Surprise Party, Prince evidently suspected something unusual was going on. He saw sand-wiches and cakes packed in baskets, and ran about snuffing with inquiring nose.
But his mistress said, "No, Principle, you can't go, for you were not named in the invitation; and small dogs don't go to parties anyway."
This "small dog," however, had his own ideas about that; and quietly slipping out of the house he waited beside the gate.
The night was very dark, and Prince was very black, and neither master nor mistress heard or saw him till they came to the house where the Surprise Party was. Then a black streak went by them, and as the door was opened Prince darted right into the house, and into the midst of a crowd of people, carrying in his mouth a bone almost as big as himself.
How people laughed as he lay in the middle of the floor, with his forepaws resting on his big bone, his eyes shining, and his lively tail thumping the floor in satisfaction at his success in getting to the Surprise Party!
The lady of the house was very glad he came, for the little dog and his bone made every one chatty and jolly.
Prince was praised and petted until he wriggled with delight and thought this the very nicest party he ever had attended. But how do you suppose he knew it would be proper for him to carry his own refreshments?-Little Folks.
WHEN DICK DIED.
A newsboy sat on the curbstone crying, when a pedestrian halted and laid his hand on the youngster's shoulder.
"What's wrong, sonny?"
"I ain't your sonny."
"Well, what's wrong, my boy?"
"I nain't your boy, either."
"Lost five cents in the gutter?"
"Naw, I ain't—oh, oh, oh! Me châm's dead."
"Oh! That's another thing. How did he happen to die?"
"Runned over."
"Cheer up! You can find another chum."
"You wouldn't talk that way if you'd known Dick. He was the best friend I ever had. There warn't nothing Dick wouldn't a done for me. An' now he's d-ded-love. I'm a-wishin' I was, too.
"Look here," said the man, "go and sell your papers and take some poor little rogged boy and be a chum to him. It'll help you and do him good."
"Pashaw, mister, where's there a boy wot'd go around nights with me an' be cold an' hungry me, eaten doors and sleep on the ground, the Dick." An' we wontn't, too.

"I have been through several grasshopper epidemics," he said, "but I never saw any such thing. But I did encounter an exodus of prairie dogs once, on what was then a prairie in Nebraska, that held up a long emigrant train for a day and night. It was during the rush for Pike's Peak. It was no unusual sight to see miles and miles of covered wogons wending their way like an army toward what was supposed to be the better land. We had been out about two weeks from Omaha when one of the advance guard hurried back along the line with the information that a drove of prairie dogs was crossing the road a mile or so ahead, and that they were so numerous that the vanguard of the prairie schoolers had been stopped. A temporary halt was made.
"No one supposed it would be of long duration, but, darkness coming on, we rounded up for the night. The next morning the line did not move forward, nor did it gain an inch all day. Then a few of us mounted our horses and rode forward to reconnoitre. When we got within a quarter of a mile of the head of the line we looked forward. The face of the earth was in motion.
"As far as the vision extended, north and south, it was the same. They were moving from the north to the south—the prairie dogs were. They were so close together you couldn't have tossed your hat between them. They did not seem to be panic-streaked, but just moved on and on like a great cloud. It was the strangest sight I ever saw. Old plainsmen said they never saw anything like it. When they were first seen we turned the dogs in the train loose upon them, but the dogs soon gave out. Maybe there is some sort of affinity between domestic dogs and prairie dogs which prompted the former to strike when it came to exterminating their species. Anyway, the domestic dogs just gave up the job. As for shooting the little brown raisels, that would have been folly. We hadn't the ammunition.
"The last night of the great exodus everybody, tired out with watching it, gave up the job and sought rest wherever it could be found. The next day there wasn't a prairie dog in sight. We resumed our journey. As we neared our destination and the long line of prairie schooners began to disintegrate, men had something else to think about, and the sight was forgotten. I suppose. But I never forgot it, and now and then occasionally I have met some one who also saw the sight, and as I knew they were men who never drank or dreamed, I satisfied myself that I was not mistaken in what I saw. I reckon it was the grand army of prairie dogs looking for places to burrow. I know where some of them located, but where did they come from?"—Chicago Inter-Ocean.
At the Lewis and Clark centennial celebration, to be held in Portland, Oregon, in 1905, long-delayed recognition will be paid to one of the heroes of American history, the Shoshone Indian girl, called Sacajawea, who acted as guide to the exploring party. At the time of the appearance of Mrs. Eva Emery Dye's romantic narrative, "The Conquest," which described the first crossing of the American continent, the suggestion was made that it would be fitting to erect a statue of this Indian heroine at the Louisiana Purchase Exhibition at St. Louis, the Missouri town being the starting point of the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1804.
It is now announced, however, that the statue to the memory of Sacajawea will be erected at Portland at the time of the Lewis and Clark centennial. Women, appropriately enough, have taken up the project of the statue. The women of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and the Dakotas will be called upon to interest themselves in the matter. It is proposed to erect a statue, costing not more than $0000, and it is further proposed that a woman sculptor, Miss Alice Cooper, of Colorado, be given the commission.
Miss Dye in her story gave full credit to the part played by Sacajwaea in the successful expedition led by Lewis and Clark. She was first met by the explorers in their winter camp among the Mandans. She was a captive, a Shoshone girl only sixteen, but married to a French half-breed interpreter. In the spring when the party moved forward, Sacajwaea accompanied it with her husband and child. She proved of inestimable service. Keen, quick-witted, with the instinct almost of the homing pigeon, she was the best of guides. At one time, when lack of horses meant frustration of all plans and almost certain failure of the expedition, it was the Indian girl who cailed the Shoshones into loaning their horses, and thus permitted the men to press forward.
Sacajawea also guided the party on its return trip. It is said she seemed fully to realize the importance of the expedition and to desire its success as much as the leaders. Many think, without this Indian girl, the expedition which paved the path across the continent, might have been a failure. It was not known when or how she died, but a monument at last will be erected to her memory by the women of the country which her services

HUMMINGBIRD A FIGHTER
Although the English sparrow has managed in large measure to banish from its haunts larger native birds, and even the courageous little wren, there is one smaller bird of which it is afraid. This tiny but formidable enemy is the hummingbird. The familiar principle of physics that the striking power of a body in motion is equal to its weight multiplied by its velocity is the secret of the hummingbird's superiority over the sparrow. The hummingbird's weight, is small, but its speed is high, and its buzzing has genuine terror for its larger enemy.
The uncasy cries of a sparrow attracted the attention of an observer the other day, who presently discovered the sparrow sitting well up in a pine tree. Just within a foot of the frightened bird buzzed a hummingbird, its misty wings and keen beak suggesting a tiny aerial ram in flight and bent up on puncturing some greater craft in the air.
The sparrow stood its ground until the beak seemed about to pierce its breast, and then took flight, with the angry little hummingbird in hot pursuit. The hummingbird soon returned, apparently having given up the chase, possibly because it had driven the enemy far enough from the nest.
THE LINE-JUICE ISLAND.
Nearly all the lime-juice used in the world comes from the tiny island of Montserrat, in the British West Indies. The lime grows wild in many West Indian islands, but only in Montserrat is it used commercially. That island is one vast garden of lime trees, and nowhere in the world is there a finer sight than its thirty miles of orchards, laden with the fruit of the lime or fragrant with its blossoms.
The fruit is gathered by negra women, who carry it down the hills to the shipping port in big baskets on their heads. Like all West Indians, they are remarkable for their ability to carry heavy weights in this manner. Once, the company which controls the lime-juice industry sought to lighten the burden of its laborers by introducing wheelbarrows.
The negroes filled the wheelbarrows readily enough, and then carried them on their heads as they had been used to carry the baskets. - Indianapolis News.
AN EXPERIMENT
Take three bowls and stand them in a row. In the bowl at one end put as hot water as your hand can bear, in the one at the other end put ice-water, in the middle bowl lukewarm water. Now, hold your right hand in the hot water and your left hand in the cold, say for a minute or more, then suddenly place both hands in the lukewarm water and notice the effect. If the one test is blindfolded a good deal of amusement will follow.
"PLAYING SHOP."
This is a very favorite game for sunny days and you can easily find things in the garden for "shop". Sorrel makes good coffee.

A SHOSHONE HEROINE.
ORCLED BY WATERSPOUTS.
Becalmed at sea while fifteen water-spouts roared and blissed about here was the experience of the Spanish Main schooner John A. Matheson, Captain Vaux, which arrived in port yesterday from San Andreas. The Matheson was in the latitude of Savannah fast Thursday, the sea smooth as glass and not a breath of air stirring. Off a distance the collision of currents of air from different directions began sucking up the sea in revolving cones until the volumes of water reached to the clouds and were formed like a sand hour glass.
The masses of water were hundreds of feet high and about thirty feet thick at their narrowest part, in the middle. They whistled around with a terrifying roar, shooting off showers of spray. The spouts formed ahead and astern of the schooner, off to starboard and to port, completely surrounding and dancing about the becalmed vessel. The vessel had no steerage way, while no less than nine of these "manacles of the sea" needed to and fro across the waters. It was expected that the Matheson would be hit every moment by one of the spouts that cavorted about her, which meant a dismasting of the vessel, to say the least of it. Three of the immense whirling bodies broke and fell into the sea only a few ship's lengths astern of the Matheson. In all, fifteen waterspots roared past the schooner.
The Matthson was seventeen days on the passage, and during part of the run made 555 miles in sixty-nine hours. Baltimore American.
DIED IN A BEAR TRAP.
Herman Kratz, a homestender, who lived seventeen miles northwest of Ely, Northeastern Minnesota, mysteriously disappeared last September, and no trace was ever found of him until a few days ago, when the skeleton of a man supposed to have been Kratz was found by a civil engineer in a deadfall set-for bear five or six miles from his place in the deep woods. The flesh had practically all disappeared from the skeleton, but the scalp and hair still remained in part. The clothing was rotted away so that it was of little use for purposes of identification.
One puzzling thing is that the hair seems somewhat gray, while the hair of the missing homesteader was dark brown, but it is thought that the terror of his situation in the bear trap and the knowledge that he could never escape caused his hair to whiten. Theodora Kratz, mother of the young homesteader, who lived on a farm seven miles from Elroy, Wis., is reported to have become insane over the disappearance and probable death of her son.
A DANGEROUS PERFORMANCE.
The French have some variations on "looping the loop." The record sensation is the "deathly circle over the lion's cage." The circle de la mort itself, which is no novelty, consists of a circling cycling track, which, while performers ride round it, is slowly raised, the centre remaining on the ground. Eventually the cyclists are displayed tearing round what looks like the inner surface of a basin, with no bottom. At Neully Fair the circle is to west on a lion's cage. When the track is raised the roof of the wild beasts' house will at the same time slide off. Thus the cyclists will, as usual, be disclosed riding round the slide of a basin, but they will be worse off than if the latter were bottomless, for beneath them lions, under the whip of a tamer, will roar and rage, and a slip or the bursting of a tire would mean for the wheelmen a fall into the den of wild beasts. The manager of this show proudly claims that it will be the most blood-curdling on record.
A TIGER YARN.
Captain Maquold, of the First Lancers, Inspector-General of the Nozam's forces at Hyderabad, has had a strange adventure with a tiger near Bangalore. Accompanied by a native orderly, he had tracked the animal for three days and then lost him. The tiger was wounded, but made good his escape, and took refuge in a cave, where he was suddenly discovered by the orderly, who gave a warning shout and bolted. Captain Maquold, a few yards away, just had time to drop down behind a ledge of rock only three feet and a half high, when the tiger emerged from the cave, crawled right over the ledge without noticing the officer, and made for the orderly, who had tripped and fallen. He had seized the native by the leg when Captain Maquold lodged a bullet in his spine, and then shot him through the head. Captain Maquold has had several narrow escapes of a similar kind. On a former occasion a tiger leaped right over him.-London Chronicle.
STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
A Brooklyn man who was struck by lightning says the experience is not half so terrifying as the contemplation of it. "It was as though some one sneaked up behind me and hit me with a piece of two-by-four," he says. "I had just gone under the tree to wait for the shower to pass, and my son was under another and smaller tree about fifty feet distant. Suddenly I felt as though I was going up, up, up. I could neither speak nor move. And there I lay, unable to do a thing. My son; who had been felled to his knee by the shock, was soon up and came running to me. I could not move, a muscle. They brought me home in a carriage, and after a time my speech came back. I have not yet, however, recovered the full use of my legs."
Some people are kept so busy giving advice that they haven't time to mind their own business.

Harvested by Death.
Mrs. Elvina Tafts, one of our well-known and highly respected citizens died on Thursday night of last week. For several years she has been suffering with asthma, but at the time of her death she was apparently better off than usual. She conversed with those of the household about one hour of her death, and after her evening devotions as was her habit, she retired. Soon after retiring she was aroused by a fit of coughing and before any medical assistance could be given she passed away.
Sometime prior to her death she had remarked that she was tired of life; that she had endeavor to live a Christian, and that she was ready to change this world for the one beyond. Mrs. Tufts was a staunch member of the Second Baptist church and stood by it at all times, doing her full duty.
The funeral occurred from the church on Saturday afternoon, last, Rev. Dr. Durham, officiating. The deceased leaves no relatives except her daughter, and son-in-law Mrs. Cassie and Mr. A. B. Cooper, who have the sympathy of a host of friends in their bereavement.
Mr. J. W. Williams a young man well known about town and who has just recently been married, was drowned on last Sunday afternoon at Cattle Park while in bathing. According to the statement of those who saw the sad occurrence, Mr. Williams who could swim but a very little, unknowingly swam beyond his depth and when he tried to touch bottom there was none to be found, and before assistance could reach him he was drowned. His friends after making an unsuccessful search for the body, it being late in the afternoon the search was given up until Monday morning, when he was found almost the same place where he went down.
Mr. Moore the proprietor of the place while speaking of the accident said: "No one regrets the drowning more than I, but as to the saying that Mr. Williams was drowned in a suckhole is untrue, because the place where he got drowned is a place where swimmers generally swim every day."
He was buried on Tuesday afternoon from the residence of his mother-in-law, 419 Purse street, by the Orions Aid and Social Club of which he was a prominent member. Besides a wife he leaves a mother, sister, brother and a host of fiends.
Mrs. L. M. Pleasant, relict of the late Capt. L. M. Pleasant, died on Tuesday night last. For quite a number of years she has been an invalid and her death has been constantly expected. The funeral took place from Beth-Eden Baptist church on Thursday afternoon, Rev. R Kemp, officiating. She leaves children and a host of relatives to mourn his loss.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS
WHEN WINDS ARE HIGH.
When the wind is high it is best never to hang delicate articles, such as handkerchiefs or collars, on the line. Not only are they likely to be whipped to shreds by the wind, but there is danger of their being blown away and lost. The safest method is to place all small articles in a pillow case and hang that upon the line.
FOODS WHICH WAR.
Since the average family must eat what is set before it or go without, it loibooves the housewife not to serve at the same meal articles which war upon each other. For instance, cherries and milk and lobster and milk are deadly foes. Do not give the family a chance to eat them together. Do not serve cheese and raw onions at the same meal, or cheese after salt meat. Ten retards the digestion of meat.
ART OF MERINGUE MAKING.
The reason so many women fall in making a light delicate merlingue is because the oven is so hot that it sets the egg at once, instead of allowing it to rise. It is often expedient to leave the oven door open while the merlingue is being cooked and browned. Always allow one spoonful of sugar to each white of egg used for this purpose. A red raspberry pie baked without an upper crust, then covered with a merlingue, is pretty and tempting.
NEW WAY TO SERVE NOODLES.
An expert cook says that one very palatable way to serve noodles is with boiled fish, instead of potatoes. Drop the noodles into boiling salted water, but reserve a few for frying. After allowing them to boil for ten minutes, stirring occasionally with a fork, pour into a colander, and while they are draining fry those that have been reserved to a golden brown. Heap the boiled noodles in a vegetable dish, and drop the fried ones lightly over the surface. Serve the fish with a cream sauce.

Having learned from experience that borrowed napkins never come home, loan the ragged ones (micey ironed, so the holes do not show folded), or buy a new, cheap set, and always keep them ready. "She" can't object to them so long as they are new, and you will soon save their price by not having your best ones lost or used as jelly-strainers. (Neighbors sometimes do these things.) A cracked lamp-chinney is just as good to loan, and will probably come home in as good condition as would any other. If you have an old carpet-stretcher that you never think of using, don't throw it away; it will be convenient for the "lady next door" in the spring and autumn. Give one of the boys the tack-hammer to keep, then when it is asked for of course you do not know where it is. (Caution—Be sure to keep the boy where you can easily find him when you want to use (the hammer.) Postage-stamps may be kept in a tin box on the back porch, and you may consciously say, "I don't believe there's a stamp in the house." Fibs are not to be encouraged, but it often does require considerable planning, scheming and strategy to keep one's private belongings, from a tooth-brush to a fur coat, and the family property, from the corkscrew to the baby, anywhere near home—Woman's Home Companion.

First Impression a Confused Sense of
Bigness and Barbaric Color.
Imagine, if you can—but you never can—a mighty cleft in the level earth a third of a mile wide, its brink sharp, precipitous, reaching over twelve hundred feet downward, sometimes almost perpendicular, sometimes banked with huge heaps of talus or butteredess with spindling pinnacles and towers often surmounted with eagle nests, and all painted, glowing with the richest color—vast patches of yellow and orange, streaklets of red and blue, with here a towering abutment all of red, and there another all of yellow. At the bottom flows the gleaming green river, and at the top the dark green forest reaches to the canon-edge, and sometimes, even, rugged and gnarled pines, the vanguard of the wood, venturo over the precipice, to find footing on some ledge; or to hang, half dislodged, with angular dead arms reaching out into the mighty depths, a resting place for soaring eagle or hawk. The sides of the canon, being nit of solid fock, but of crumbling, soft formation, have nurtured plastic material for the sculpturing of water and wind, which have tooled them into a thousand fantastic forms. One's eye traces out gigantic castles, huge dog forms, bird forms, titanic faces—all adding to the awful impressiveness of the place.
For milts the canon stretches northward from the lower falls. From numerous well guarded outlooks the spectator, grasping hard upon the railing lest the dizziness of these heights unnere him, may behold a hundred varled views of the grandeur, looking either toward the falls, which seem to fill the canon-end like a splendid white column of marble, or off to the northward, where the stupendous gorge widens out, loses some of its coloring, admits more of the forest, and finally disappears among rugged mountains.
Everywhere the view is one that places the seal of awed silence upon the lips; it never palls, never grows old. One soon sees all too much of geyser and paint pot; of this, never. At first the sensation of savage intensity is so overpowering that the spectator gathers only a confused sense of the bligness and barbary color; but when he has made the perilous descent to the canon bottom hold the falls, when he has seen the wonder from every point of view, he begins to grasp a larger part of the whole scene, to form a picture which will remain with him.—From R. S. Baker's "A Place of Marvels" in the Century.
Teaching a Dog to Read.
The intelligence of animals seems, as a rule, to be underrated rather than overrated. A dog breeder described the other day a wonderful collo that had belonged to Sir John Lubbock. "This dog," he said, "would when it was hungry lay at its master's feet a card marked 'food.' When it was thirsty it would fetch a card marked 'drink.' When it wanted to take a walk it would bring a card marked 'out.' Sir John Lubbock trained it to do this trick in less than a month. He put the food card over the dog's food and made it bring the card to him before he would allow it to eat and in the matter of drinking and going out he used a like method. The cards were similar in shape and color; nothing but the writing on them differed. Since, therefore, the dog distinguished them by the writing alone, it may truly be said that the animal could read."
A CITY MAID.
The city maid who neer had seen
The fields where wild flowers grow;
And when she saw the cat-tails,
She cried, "Oh, do look, quick!
Who ever heart of sausages
A-growing on a stick!!"
—September St. Nicholas.
NIGHT TRAVEL.
O near lights, and far lights,
And every light a home!
And how they gladden, sadden us,
Who late and early roam!

Spain Has Brought Us Horses.
The Spaniards were the first to bring horses to this continent, though the paleontologist tells us that the rocks abound with fossils which show that Equidae were numerous all over America in the Eocene period. It is a singular fact, however, that there were no horses in America when the first Europicans came 'hither.'—From John Gilmer Speed's "The Horse in America," in the September Century.

OUR TOTAL POPULATION.
With Philippines, Porto Rico, Guam
and Samoa, We Number 84,233,069.
The total population enumerated by
the twelfth census was 76,303,337, but
while the area of enumeration covered
Alaska and Hawaii, it did not include
Porto Rico, the Philippines, Guam or
Samoa. The population of these newly
acquired islands has, however, been
ascertained partly by estimates and
partly by special censuses. Including
the estimates, the total population of
the United States and its outlying pos-
sessions in 1900 was as follows:
Area of enumeration..... 76,303,387
Philippine Islands..... 6,961,339
Porto Rico..... 953,243
Guam..... 9,000
Samoa..... 6,100

Porto Rico.....953,243
Guam.....9,000
Samoa.....6,100

The only countries surpassing the United States in number of inhabitants are the Chinese Empire, the British Empire, the Russian Empire, and probably France, with the inclusion of its African possessions—From the Hon. W. R. Merriam's "Noteworthy Results of the Twelfth Census" in the September Century.
A Winged Highwayman.
We naturally wonder why a wasp cannot successfully defend itself against a fly. But, in addition to its sword-like proboscis, the robber-fly is also endowed with legs of unusual length and power. It is thus enabled to hold its victim at such a distance that the envenomed sting cannot be used. Powerful and swift as its wings are, it seldom seizes its stinging victims in mid-air, but usually hurls it self on the back of the unsuspecting wasp. Caterpillars, spiders, moths, beetles, dragon flies, and even plant bugs are all selzed and despatched by this swift assassin.—From Nature and Science in the September St. Nicolaus.
Just Saved From Starvation.
When, in 1804, Miss Balfour was visiting the West of Ireland and studying the condition of the people, she asked one of them how they were getting on in a particular village. "Arrah, miss, sure and if it wasn't for the famine we'd be shtarving." John Bull.

"Some time ago I was in a very weak condition, my work made me nervous and my back ached frightfully all the time, and I had terrible headaches.
"My mother got a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for me, and it seemed to strengthen my back and help me at once, and I did not get so tired as before. I continued to take it, and it brought health and strength to me, and I want to thank you for the good it has done me."—MISS KATE BOLLMAN, 142nd St. & Wales Ave., New York City.—$000 forfelt if original of above letter proving gentleness cannot be produced.

Ripans Tabules are the best dyspepsia medicine ever made. A hundred millions of them have been sold in the United States in a single year. Every illness arising from a disordered stomach is relieved or cured by their use. So common is it that diseases originate from the stomach it may be safely asserted there is no condition of ill health that will not be benefited or cured by the occasional use of Ripans Tabules. Physicians know them and speak lightly of them. All druggists sell them. The five-cent package is enough for an ordinary occasion, and the Family Bottle, sixty cents, contains a household supply for a year. One generally gives relief within twenty minutes.
