VOL. XIX. BANDITS IN FLORIDA Hold Up Seabord Train in Most Primitive Fashion. WERE FORCED TO DECAMP Four Railroad Men Bring Guns to Bear and Four Would-Be Robbers Make a Hasty Retreat—Sher-Iff's Posse is Eluded. Passenger train No. 76, eastbound on the Seaboard Air Line was held up one mile east of Sanderson, Fla., at 7:45 Saturday night by four white men. The door of the baggage car was blown open with dynamite, the robbers mistaking this car for the express car. The engine was stopped by a volley of shots fired into the cab. The fireman and engineer were taken off the engine and escorted to the second-class coach and the robbers ran the train ahead about half a mile, when they blew open the baggage car. The train conductor went forward, but was fired on and driven back to the coaches. Conductor L. S. Peck, who was deadheading over the line, called for firearms and volunteers. N. H. Harris, claim agent of the road; B. B. McCaa, traveling auditor and J. C. Williams, traveling freight agent, responded, and the four went forward opened fire and drove teh robbers off. Conductor Peck took the throttle and ran the train four miles down the road. The robbers secured no booty and made no attempt to rob the passengers, but there was great excitement in the passenger coaches while the firing was going on. The sheriffs of Dhval and Baker counties started at once on the trail of the robbers. Sheriff's Posse Eluded. All day Sunday the posse searched for the train robbers, but no traces of them were found. The posse is at a disadvantage in not having bloodhounds. The fact that the wrong car was dmilted leads to the belief that the work was not done by professionals. GENERAL GORDON'S WILL Faithful and Loving Wife Is First and Principal Beneficiary. The will of the late General John B. Gordon, offered for probate in the DeKalb county, Ga., court, provides that his wife be abundantly provided for from the income of the estate and that the remalnder of the income be divided among, his four children, Hugh H. Gordon, Frank Gordon, Mrs. Burton Smith and Mrs. Orton Brown, share and share allike, until at the end of twenty-one years the whole estate may be wound up. This will was made last August, and the executors and executrixes are provided for as follows: "My wife, Fannie H. Gordon, and my son, Hugh H. Gordon, and my son, Frank Gordon, and my two daughters, Fannie and Carrie Lewis, and my friend, A. H. Cox. They shall not be required to give bond, and shall act as my executors during their lives or until my estate is finally wound up and distributed." No mention is made in the will of the general's much-loved home, "Sutherland," which is simply included in the property left to his wife. Neither is any mention made of, the general's personal effects such as his sword and other mementoes of the war, but the ownership of these have been settled among the members of the family. TRAIN ROBBERS IN FLORIDA. Attempt to Wreck L. and N. Passenger Near Penaacola, Frustrated. Robbers attempted to wreck passenger train No. 3 on the Louisville and Nashville railroad at Mulat, Fla., Sunday at 9:30 o'clock. Crossstiles and other obstructions were piled on the track, but the attempt was discovered by a section hand before the arrival of the train. Mulat is about 30 miles from Pensacola. New Plan for Election of Gubernatorial Candidate Inaugurated. A general democratic primary to nominate a state ticket to be voted for in April next was held in Louisiana Tuesday. It was the first test ever made in the state of the primary. There were two candidates for governor, and the indications point to the nomination of former Senator Blanchard over his opponent, General Jac tremski, consul to Peru under Mr. Cleveland, and former commander of the Louisiana division of the Confederate Veterans. SMOOT CASE IS ARGUED. Status of Mormon Senator Bright Up for Investigation Before Privileges and Elections Committee A Washington special says: The senate committee on privileges and elections met Saturday to hear the attorneys on both sides of the case involving the right of Senator Smoot to occupy his seat. Former Representative Tayler, of Ohio, was heard for some Protestants, and E. P. Stevenson for those who are representing the National Rerom Association. A. S. Worthington and Walderman VanCott were present on behalf of Senator Smoot, who also was in attendance. The first presentation was made by Mr. Tayler, who said the Protestants expected to prove the following charges: 1. The Mormon priesthood, according to the doctrine of the church and belief, practices and its membership is vested with, and assumes to exercise supreme authority in all things, temporal and spiritual, civil and political. The head of the church claims to receive divine revelations and these Reed Smooth, by his covenants and obligations, is bound to accept and obey. 2. The first presidency and twelve apostles, of whom Reed Smoot is one, is supreme in exercising the authority of the church and in the transmission of the authority to their successors. Each of them is called prophet, seer and revelator. 3. As shown by their teaching and by their own lives, this body of men has not abandoned belief in polygamy and polygamous cohabitation. On the contrary (a) As the ruling authorities of the church they promulgate in the most solemn manner the doctrine of polygamy without reservation. (b) The president of the Mormon church and a majority of the twelve apostles now practice polygamy and polygamous cohabitation, and some of them have taken polygamous wives since the manifesto of 1890. These things have been done with the knowledge and countenance of Reed Smoot. Plural marriage ceremonies have been performed by the apostles since the manifesto of 1890 and many bishops and other high officials of the church have taken plural wives since that time. All of the first presidency, and twelve apostles encourage, countenance, conceal and connive of polygamy and polygamous cohabitation and honor and reward by high office and distinguished preferment "those who most persistently and defiantly violate the law of the land. 4. Though pledged by the compact of statehood and bound by the law of the commonwealth, this supreme body, whose voice is law to its people and whose members were individually directly responsible for good faith to the American people, permitted, without protest or objection, their legislators to pass a law nullifying the statute against polygamous cohabitation. For all these things Reed Smoot is responsible in law and in conscience to this body and to the American people. In connection with the third specification Mr. Tayler gave a list of the documents recognized by the Mormon church as inspired. In reply, Mr. Worthington said the statements made by Mr. Tayler disregarded very materially from the charges made in the formal statements, and he asked time in which to make a reply, which was granted. DEATH CLAIMS BLAIR. Is Now Barred from Trial Anent the St. Louis Scandal Affairs. St. Louis Seadant Affairs James L. Blair, of St. Louis, Mo. died at Eustis, Fla., Saturday morning. He visited Florida in search of health, and it was thought that he was improving when his condition changed alarmingly for the worst. Mr. Blair held the position of general counsel for the St. Louis exposition and Mrs. Blair that of president of the board of lady managers, which position was resigned allowing to certain charges of official misconduct of the deceased, of which the St. Louis papers were full at the time. Sunday night the body was taken to St. Louis, accompanied by Mrs. Blair and her son, Percy Blair. TO MEET AT INDIANAPOLIS. Prohibition Party Will Hold National Convention In that City At a committee meeting in Chicago, Friday, Indianapolis was chosen by the prohibition party for its national convention, which will be held on June 29. Philippine Bond Issue Sold. The war department has adopted the proposal of Harvey Fiske & Sons, of New York, representing Fiske & Robinson and the National Bank, of New York, for the entire $7,000,000-liond issue of the Philippine government. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY, JANUARY 23. 1904. BUY LAND IN SOUTH SECURE IMMENSE TRACTS In Southern Alabama and Northern Florida—An Industrial-Venture Edward F. Younger, a well known Chicago correspondent states that the Swifts, the Armours, Nelson Morris, and Schwarzkild & Sulzberger—"the stock yards family"—have purchased 1,000,000 acres of land in southern Alabama and northern Florida, according to stories published here, but not fully confirmed by the packers. The news of the purchase has startled the stock yards, Lasalle street and the railway world. These interests see behind the purchase a move intended to revolutionize the meat industry of America. The 1,000,000 acres, it is declared, was purchased from the Loulsville and Nashville railroad at an average price of $3.75 an acre, making the total money consideration $3,750,000. It is declared that the great Chicago packers intend to establish on the reclaimed swamp land and the pinelands of Georgia and Florida the greatest cattle feeding grounds in the world, and to escape freight rates and double hauls—the "local" rates between Montana and Chicago and Chicago and New York—to rid themselves of the great expense of shipping, and to fatten cattle on cassava. The corn products trust is interested because, it is said, the packers intend, in connection with their feedlag ground, to establish great starch factories and to manufacture starch and other products of the cassava root and put them in the field in competition with corn products, of the trust. CONVENTION IN PANAMA. First Steps Taken for the Adoption of a Constitution. A special dispatch from Panama says: Members of the junta and several consular representatives were present Friday at the first session of the constitutional convention, which was also attended by a great crowd of people. Dr. Pablo Arosemena, temporary president of the convention, delivered the opening address, which was repeatedly interrupted by applause. Dr. Arosemena said: "The republic will live less by its material power than by the virtues it will practice. Independence must be maintained and the republic must adopt, without reserve, hat policy of probity which is born of justice and knowledge." Dr. Arosemena reviewed the favorable auspices under which the republic had been born and said: "Its security is protected by a powerful people, in whose veins runs the rict blood of these puritans who shook off, with the dust of their sandals, the torment of religious intolerance and the opprobrium of political despotism." Dr. Euesbia Morales delivered the junta's message to the convention, after which the ministers leat the meeting. The convention appointed Aristides Arjona, Juan Rautista Amador and Manuel C. Jurado a committee to draw up an answer to the junta's message. TWO UNDER PEONAGE-CHARGE. Randolph County, Georgia, Farmers Bound Over In Federal Court. Charged with peonage, O. A. and O. F. Knighton, two farmers of Randolph county, Georgia, were placed under bonds of $1,000 each by United States Commissioner Brown at Columbus, Friday. Their cases, which will be tried at the next term of the United States court will be the first peonage cases ever brought in the western division of the federal court in the northern district of Georgia. FRANCE DEFIES VATICAN. Government Takes Strong Hand in Appointment of Bishops. The French government has presented the vatican with a note in the nature of an ultimatum regarding the appointment of bishops to five vacant French sees, substantially saying that either the pope must approve the selections of the French government or they will be announced without the approbation of the holy see. In addition the papal nuncio will be asked to leave Paris, and the slergy will be forbidden to collect Peters pence in the churches. CANAL TREATY IS SAFE Majority of Senators Stand Ready to Approve the Convention, But Will Await Information. A Washington special says: The ratification of the Panama canal treaty is assured, but there will be no vote upon it until after certain information which the democratic members of the senate desire has been secured. That was practically settled at a conference of the democratic senators held Tuesday morning. So far as the general situation is concerned, there has been no change. There are probably twelve democrats who want to vote for ratification and will do so; but these will join the other democrats in insisting that all the information they desire be sent to the senate through the regular official channels before a vote is taken. At the conference Senator Gorman was authorized to name a committee of three to draft name resolution as is calculated to cover the information desired. This will follow in its general lines the Hoar and Gorman resolutions, eliminating such features as have been covered by the communications already sent to the senate by the state department. When this information has been sent and considered, a vote will be permitted, but not before. The democrats who are favorable to ratification are as anxious as the others that the senate shall be fully informed not only with regard to the steps taken in the recognition of Panama, but with regard to the policy which this government has followed in its interpretation of the treaty with Colombia. They want the whole facts before casting their votes one way or the other. There will be no effort to bind anybody when it comes to the final vote. each senator voting in accordance with his individual convictions. This insures ratification unless some scandal should be developed which is not anticipated. Senator Bacon's illness has prevented his pressing his resolution providing for a treaty with Colombia settling all difference between the countries or in case there can be no agreement the reference of the dispute to arbitration. That resolution is upon the senate table subject to the call of the Georgia senator. So long as the treaty is to be amended at all, those who are supporting its ratification desire to see it perfected in every necessary respect. SAILED UNDER AN ALIAS. Bass Frazier, the Missing Georgia Tech Student, is Located After three years of mystery and unexplained absence Bass Frazier, the former Georgia Tech student from Union Springs, Ala., has been located. Youn g Frazier is a corporal in the 26th United States infantry stationed at Fort Ringold, Tex. His family has known of his whereabouts since last July and while they have made no secret of their knowledge, only a few of their friends know the facts until a day or two ago. Young Frazier is a corporal in the Georgia Tech, disappeared from Atlanta in January, 1900, just four years ago. The peculiar circumstances leading up to the disappearance caused the widespread impression that he had been kidnapped and foully dealt with. Searching parties were organized, rewards were offered and strenuous efforts made to locate the missing youth. It now develops that while the search was under way young Frazier was in San Francisco and later in the Philippines in the ranks of the Twenty-sixth infantry under the name of J. Williams. NEGROES NEEDED IN HAITI. Colored Bishop Should Migrate to Island instead of Africa. Bishop Smith, of the Afro-Methodist Episcopal church, who has just returned to his home in Detroit from Haiti, says that Haiti and not Africa is the place for colored Americans. Twenty thousand, he says, could be assimilated there at once. Bishop Smith is considering the question of agitating the emigration of colored people from the southern states to Haiti. ROME POSTOFFICE MUODLE. Charges and Counter Charges to Be Probed by Inspectors of Georgia. A Washington dispatch says: Representative Maddox, of Georgia, has been notified of further trouble in the Rome postoffice. Postmaster Helm has preferred charges against Delivery Clerk Brown of inefficiency, neglect of duty and drunkenness. Brown, in a spirit of retaliation, charges the postmaster with drunkenness and insuring profane language in the postoffice. Representative Maddox says the postoffice inspectors are now at work UNFAIRLY TREATED Strenuous Correspondence Between Colombian Envoy and Secretary Hay Sent to Senate by President Roosevelt. President Roosevelt transmitted to the senate Monday additional correspondence between the United States and Colombia respecting Panama, covering the period from December 23, 1903, to January 6 last. A statement of grievances on the part of Colombia was presented to the state department by General Reyes on December 23. General Reyes says that the course of the United States has worked deep injury to Colombia. He maintained that in rejecting the canal treaty Colombia was exercising a perfect right, and said he believed a treaty would be accepted, but for the threats of General Beaufort that his government would reject any amendments. And he cited the treaty of 1846 as showing that the independence and sovereignty of Colombia was to be maintained intact between the two governments. General Reyes said, with reference to the Hay-Herran treaty, that the same course was followed in Bogota as was pursued in Washington. If the treaty, he said, had been rejected in Washington, the disapproval would involved no grievance for Colombia, and that the Colombian congress in its disapproval of the treaty simply exercised a vested right. This action, he maintained, did not disqualify the Colombian-government for the conclusion of another treaty. After citing the instructions to Minister Beaupre, made public by the state department hercetofore, in this connection, General Reyes concluded: "No one will wonder that under the pressure of threats so serious and irritating, and in presence of a formal notification from the party, which had the authority to serve if, that no amendment would be accepted, preference was given to disapproval." As to the recognition of the republic of Panama, General Reyes says that it is a matter of public knowledge that the mother country commands sufficient forces to subdue a revolution. "The attitude of the United States," he says, "constitutes, according to the most ancient and modern authority on international law, not only a great offense," but also a formal attack upon her wealth." After declaring that Panama formed the most important part of the national wealth of Colombia, General Reyes continues: Before the news was divulged that a revolution was about to break out on the isthmus, General Reyes says, a United States military officer stopped the railway from carrying to Panama, as it was under obligation to do, a battalion of troops from Bogota, which had just arrived at Colon, "at the very time when its arrival in that city would have impeded or suppressed any revolutionary attempt." General Reyes said that in leading the Colomhlan army to restore order on the isthmus he (Reyes) had the honor to address a note on the subject to Rear Admiral Coghlan, to which he recieved a reply without delay as follows: "His (Coghlan's) present orders are to prevent the landing of soldiers with hostile intent, within the boundary of the state of Panama." At this time the Colombian army consisted of 10,000 men, which General Reyes declared to be more than sufficient to suppress the Panama revolution, "if your excellency's government had not prevented the landing of the troops under my command that were to embark at Puerto Colombia." In this connection General Reyes calls attention to the fact that there in no overland way to reach Panama from Colombia. AT BRYAN "DOLLAR DINNER." Nebraskán Reaffirms Kansas City Platform With Old Time Vigor. A formal reception to William J. Bryan on his return from Europe, taking the form of a "dollar dinner," was held in Lincoln, Nebr., Monday night, and it was attended by nearly 700 democrats. The dinner was intended as a testimonial of regard and sympathy with Mr. Bryan's political policies and to mark his entry into active participation in the pre-convention campaign. Mr. Bryan spoke to the Moral Institute. He reaffirmed the Kansas City planks in their entirety. POSTAL SCANDAL MATTER Motion for Investigation is Finally Referred to Senate Committee. The senate required less than a minute at Tuesday's session to dispose of the motion to refer to the committee on postoffices the various resolutions looking to an investigation of the postoffice department: The question had been previously debated for hours at a time, but on this occasion no senator manifested any disposition to discuss it further, and it was adopted without a negative vote. "NOT IN IT," SAYS-MARK. Hanna Emphatically Denies that He Is Presidential Candidate a Presidential Candidate. Senator M. A. Hanna, in an interview at Pittsburg, Pa., Friday night, sald: "I have sent out 2,000 personal letters denying that I am a candidate for the presidency, and I do not want to be considered as such. I consider all such talk a closed incident." "The alleged opposition to the nomination of President Roosevelt has been overestimated and magnified greatly by democratic papers and others with democratic proclivities." ENGINE HITS TROLLEY CAR- More Than Thirty People, Injured in Gasoline Accident at Detroit. Crossing Accident at Detroit. An onestand Michigan line street car carrying a heavy load of passengers hurrying home at the close of the day was struck by a Grand Trunk passenger train at Detroit, Friday afternoon. More than thirty-four people were injured, the street car being carried thirty feet down the track from the point of the collision and almost demolished. ALLIANCE BEING REVIVED. Farmers of North Carolina Getting To Farmers of North Carolina Getting To together with Great Unanimity, The North Carolina Farmers' Alliance has begun its great movement to again cover the whole state. Forty counties are organized, and in every one of these mass meetings of the order were heid the past week. It is the purpose during the present year to organize at least twenty more counties. UNITED MINE WORKERS Gather In Their Fifteenth Annual Convention at Indianapolis, Ind. The fifteenth annual convention of the United Mine Workers of America began at Indianapolis Monday with approximately 1,000 delegates. Brief addresses of welcome were made by Mayor John Holtman and President Barry, of the Central Labor Union, which were responded to by President Mitchell, who then announced the committee on rules and order of postness. TO ARBITRATE PANAMA CASE Is Import of Resolution Introduced in Senate by Bacon, of Georgia. War talk was precipitated in the senate Tuesday morning by Senator Bacon. He introduced a resolution providing for arbitration between the United States and Colombia in the event the present critical situation is not smoothed down by the representatives of the two nations. The resolution let down the bars for a red hot debate. H. H. GREEN's Sons, of Atlanta, Ga., are the only successful Dropsey Specialists in the world.

Mississippi in his_ inaugural address declared that he is against the Ne- groes as voters and in favor of all wchool facilities taken from him. He esid that the Negro is retrograd- ing and should not be educated. We aro glad to note that men of the Governor's ilk are but few sin high places and their opinior is not held by a large number of noble minded southerners. Gov. Vardaman and those of his way of thinking should ba more considerate of the Negro. Those are the men who are constant- ly showing up the weakness of the race and those who are ignorant and debased. ‘They never once com- mend the worthy men of the race and their efforts for betterment ; nor not a word do they say to encourage them, but delight in abuse, and yet this same Governor says that he has no prejudice sgainst the Negro. We have much to feelt proud about so faras the progress of out ‘people in this cominunity is con- cerned. Many of them are men and women of learning and with others are doing much to cause race progress along the right lines. We have men who hold responsible and lucrative positions, many who are conducting paying business for themselves, etc. Weare also proud to note the tendency among many of those in a more humble station to maintains bank account, The large number of new homes pur- obased and erected during the pas! year is another source of gratifica- tion. All ofthese should cause ui all to take renewed courage and re. double our efforts fur good. SOME time ago an appeal was fak- en from Alabama to United States Supreme Court in the case of a col- ored man who was convicted of murder. The appeal was taken on the ground that at bis indictment men of his own race were denied representation on the grand jury. This appeal has been sustained by a unanimous opinion of the Justices and thus another victory for the race is recorded. “ABOUT two years ago when it was proposed by the Mill-Haven Com- pany to employ convict Iabor at its works westof city, there wasan in- dignsnt protest from the laboriug el- ement and citizens at large. At- tempts were made by the city author- ities to prevent it, but without avail. The company haa recently gotten rid of the convicts and is now employing free labor as before.

About two weeks ago the morning paper announced an alleged assault on a colored girl early in the morning. It is said that the matter was reported to the police; but so far as the mother knows, no attempt has been made to bring the accused to trial. The mother of the alleged victim was seen and she stated that at the time in question the assault was made. She says that her daughter works in service in the southern part of the city and it is necessary for her to leave home very early in the morning. While going south on Barnard street and passing Liberty street lane, she said that she was approached by a man who was dressed as a policeman and whom she took to be a policeman, and taken forcibly in the lane where the alleged assault was made. The girl, the mother says, returned home in a distressed condition and reported the alleged occurrence to her. Immediate steps were taken, to find the alleged perpetrator, but without success. The mother said that she reported the affair at the barracks and that her daughter substantiated it, but she has no knowledge as to the outcome of it. If what the girl in question reported is a fact, it was indeed a heinious crime, especially so if it was committed by a policeman, one who is to protect, rather than take advantage of defenseless citizens. It is up to the police authorities to sift this case and if it is true to have the guilty party punished, and if the charge is false to so brand it. No delay should be made in satisfying the public mind in this respect. Societies Election. The following named officers were elected and installed to guide the affairs for the year 1904 of Branch 578 of the National Association of Letter Carriers: F. R. Edwards, President; G. F. Tyson, Vice President; J. C. Hamilton, Corresponding Secretary; J. W. Edwards, Financial Secretary; S. B. Cooper, Treasurer; A. S. LaFayette, Collector; Howard Stiles, Sergeant-at-Arms; F. L.

After the installation the officers and memters were invited to the dining room where the table was bountifully supplied with some good things. Each of the officers made a short talk. The Young Married Women's League held its first anniversary on Friday night of last week at the residence of Mrs. L. Bird. The parlor was beautifully decorated.

At a Conference of the St. Luke Baptist church held last Saturday, Rev. R. H. Thomas, after a pastorate of four years, tendered his resignation to take effect Jan. 31. While Rev. Thomas intimated to the members some time ago that he would resign they refused to accept it, but on account of his increased labors, he prevailed upon them to do so. This was done voluntarily. On Sunday morning he preached his farewell sermon taking as his text 2nd, Corinthian, 13:11 "Finally brethren farewell; be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace and the God of love and peace will be with you." He preached an effective sermon at the conclusion of which there was not a tearless eye in the church. At the conclusion of the sermon a collection of $9.25 was taken and another of $9.45 was raised for one of the members whose home was destroyed by fire. This speaks well for the liberality of the members of the church. At night Rev. Thomas preached an acceptable sermon, by the request of the officers at the F. A. B. Church. Deep regret has been expressed on Rev. Thomas retiring from the church and this is shown by white and colored offices at Inverness. Services in New Church. Please allow me space to say a word about religious services held in our new church on Dec. 24. Bro. S.

P. Smith. Visitors Opinion. Please allow me to say a few words through your valuable paper. On Dec. 13, after enjoying the Georgia Annual Conference session I called at Mr. Walter S. Scott's store. I found that the stock he had in was all it had been recommended. All of the colored people should patronize him. He is a fine young man I also called at the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company's office. It is also a valuable enterprise for our race and demands the patronage of the entire race. I took a trip to the college. On my arrival I was taken to the President's office and introduced to Prof. Wright. I was shown through the industrial departments of the college. That institution of learning is an honor to Georgia, a blessing to our race and a credit to Dr. Wright. A great war is waged against ignorance and its forts will be stormed.—Respectfully, J. Q.

If you have never seen a mountain thunderstorm at an elevation of 7,000 feet or more you have missed an experience that, will add gray hairs to your head. Here is the story of a storm among nature's massive sentiments upon whom if left a lasting impression: "To me a thunderstorm back east held no special terrors, and frequently I have been out in such a demonstration without feeing any especial nervousness. "Up here on the Rocky Mountains things are different, and I confess now to five in an awful object terror of a thunderstorm, especially at night in my tent. I suffer this terror notwithstanding the fact that so far the storms have in every instance except one gone around or beneath us without even raining enough to wet the ground. But it is the 'going around and beneath' that gets into my nerves. In the first place imagine what it is to be one and a half miles nearer a rip roaring thunderstorm than one is 'back home'. There you have occasional flashes of lightning; here it is one continuous dazzling, awe inspiring performance. The lightning strikes, too, for it is no uncommon thing during a storm to hear the rocks splintering and cracking where one especially vigorous 'holt has fanded. Add to this nerve racking exhibit the most awful detonations of thunder that you can imagine and a 'straight blowing' wind that sometimes makes the flaps of your text play a ragtime melody, and you have some idea of a mountain thunderstorm. The thunder is worse than the 'sound of a mighty battle. It bangs up against the mountain side and reverberates and rolls off into another until you, lying quaking in your tent, fully believe that the next 'boom' will split mountain and valley in twain and land you in China or some other seaport town. "I lay one night and with chattering teeth counted five distinct thunderstorms come up to the edge of the plateau on which my tent stands and each time go through with an electrical performance that would give Tom Edison a dumb, ague, and through it all not a cupful of water fell on my tent. "These electrical displays are not seemingly much dreaded by the people who live in high altitudes. They comfortingly declare that a tornado or cyclone is unknown in the mountains."—Philadelphia Press. REAL THING. Tipkins—I don't believe there ever was a horse race that was on the square.

ALL DONE OUT. Veteran Joshua Heller, of 706 South Walnut street, Urbana, Ill., says: "In the fall of 1889 after taking Doan's Kidney Pills I testified that they had relieved me of kidney trouble, disposed of a lame back with pain across my loins and beneath the shoulder blades. During the interval which has elapsed I have had occasion to resort to Doan's Kidney Pills when I noticed warnings of an attack. On Kidney Pills I testified that they had relieved me of kidney trouble, disposed of a lame back with pain across my loins and beneath the shoulder blades. During the interval which has elapsed I have had occasion to resort to Doan's Kidney Pills when I noticed warnings of an attack. On each and every occasion the results obtained were just as satisfactory as when the pills were first brought to my notice. I just as emphatically endorse the preparation "to-day as I did over two years ago." Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. X., prophetors. For sale by all druggists, prices 60 cents per box. No More Stale Eggs. A voice out of West Virginia brings the glad tidings that the world is about to emerge from the era of stale eggs. The day is coming when the egg, packed though it may be, will not be false. R. H. Hite, chief chemist of the agricultural experiment station of the West Virginia University, after experiments covering more than two years, announces that he has hit upon a method which will preserve the freshness in eggs almost indefinitely. The method was simple. An alcoholic solution of salicylic acid is prepared, and into it the egg is dipped for a few moments only. If the egg remained submerged longer the acid would penetrate the shell. Then the egg is wrapped in cotton and packed in boxes through which the air may readily circulate. The object in dipping the eggs into the solution is to destroy any germs or microbes that may adhere to the shell, and which, if they should gain access to the egg, would effect its decomposition. The cotton acts as a filter and prevents the access of other germs from the air. Eggs stored in limo water and water glass solutions will almost invariably crack or burst on boiling. This is usually attributed to a tiny bit of air enclosed in the shell. The real explanation is to be found in the fact that the old solutions weaken the shell. The fresh eggs treated with the alcoholic solution of salicylic acid, and wrapped in cotton are not weakened in any way, and behave just like fresh eggs when boiled. A GOOD THING RECOGNIZED. "Then you refuse to consider me as a candidate for the position of son-in-law?" the young-man asked. "Yes," replied the captain of industry, "but I'd like to give you a job here in my establishment.

Thompson, of Lillydale, N.Y., Grand Worthy Wise Templar, and Member of W.C.T.U., tells how she recovered by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—I am one of the many of your grateful friends who have been cured through the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and who can to-day thank you for the fine health I enjoy. When we was thirty-five years old, I am still wearing a bracelet bearing-down palms; in fact, I had womb trouble. I was very anxious to get well, and reading of the curses your Compound had made, I decided to try it. I took only six bottles, but it built me up and cured me entirely of my troubles. "My family and relatives were naturally as gratified as I was. My niece had heart trouble and nervous prostration, and was considered incurable. She took your Vegetable Compound and it cured her in a short time, and she became well and strong, and her home to her great joy and her husband's delight was blessed with a baby. I know of a number, of others who have been cured of different kinds of female trouble, and am satisfied that your Compound is the best medicine for sick women." MRS. ELIZABETH H.
