Admiral Enquist, With the Aurora, Oleg and Jemtchug, Escorted Into Bay by American Fleet Under Admiral Train. A special from Manila says: Rea Admiral Enquist, who was commander of the heavy cruiser squadron of the Russian fleet, arrived in the bay at 9 o'clock Saturday evening on board his flagship, the protected cruiser Aurora, accompanied by the protected cruisers Oleg and Jemtchug. All the vessels were more or less damaged, and there were many wounded men on board. Rear Admiral Train, on board His flagship, the battleship Ohio, with the Wisconsin, Oregon, Raleigh and Cincinnati, was outside Corregidor island, maneuvering when the Aurora saluted with thirteen guns and the Ohio answered. Admiral Train and his squadron accompanied the Russian vessels to Manila. In an interview Rear Admiral Enquist's executive officer said: "When the battle began the admiral was aboard the cruiser Oleg, which was hit a number of times by the large shot. There was an incessant rain of shot from quick firing guns, and the ship was soon badly damaged. The admiral transferred his flag to the Aurora, which then drew the combined fire of many torpedo boat destroyers at close range and the attack of submarines. We were overwhelmed by the latter. A mist arising, we made a dash for the open sea, and were followed by the Oleg and Jemchug." Rear Almiral Enquist is uninjured. Captain Egorieff, of the Aurora, was killed by a shell which struck the conning tower, and he was buried at sea the day before reaching Manila. On the Aurora three officers were wounded, twenty of the crew were killed and eighty-three were wounded. The losses on the Oleg were thirteen of the crew killed and eighteen wounded. On the Jemtchug, the casualties were twenty-one junior officers killed and one wounded, twelve of the crew killed and thirty wounded. From their appearance the Russian vessels are not damaged below the water line. Their funnels, however, are riddled by large and small shot. Several large shells pierced them amidships and a number of guns were dismounted. Sunday, Rear Admiral Train appointed the following board to investigate the condition of the Russian warships; Commander Calkins, Lieutenant Commander McElroy and the Ohio's carpenter, Harding. The naval board, after an examination into the condition of the three ships, reported that the Oleg will require sixty days, the Aurora thirty days and the Jemtchug seven days to effect repairs. The Japanese consul at Manila called on Governor General Wright twice Sunday to make inquiries regarding the disposition of the Russian vessels. Rear Admiral Enquist, accompanied by Rear Admiral Train and the French consul, called on Governor General Wright Sunday morning. After the usual greetings had been exchanged, Governor Wright said: "Admiral Enquist, do you wish to stay at Manila permanently?" Rear Admiral Enquist replied: "My ships are unseaworthy. I have not heard from my government, and I request time to make my repairs." Governor Wright then said that according to his construction of the neutrality laws, the Russian vessels could remain long enough to make necessary repairs, and after these were finished they must leave within twenty-four hours or dismantle and interne. SUSPECTED OF ARSON. Atlanta Merchant Is Held Pending an Investigation. Carey Wood, one of the leading manufacturers of Atlanta, was arrested Saturday afternoon by City Detectives Lockhart and Fogg, and held at police headquarters on the state charge of suspicion. It is said that suspicious circumstances surrounding a fire on West Mitchell street, in which his shirt factory was destroyed, caused his arrest. The fire damaged property valued at $15,000. The Savannah Tribune. Strike Leader Again Arrested at Chicago and Loses His Temper. Conspiracy Charged. Cornellus H. Shea, president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and-leader in the strike which has existed in Chicago for the last two months, was once more arrested and taken to jail Monday night. With him on the journey from the saloon in which he was arrested to the office of the sheriff and then taken to the jail was Hugh McGee, president of the truck drivers' union. Both men were taken into custody en caplas issued on indictments charging them with conspiracy, which were voted by the grand jury that adjourned Saturday night. When arrested Shea lost his temper completely and denounced the sheriff and all his works in emphatic language. He was told by the sheriff that he would be given all necessary time to procure bondsmen, but that he would be taken to jail at once unless he moderated his manner of talking. Shea again broke into violent language, and the sheriff, turning to Deputies Honan and Wilson, commanded them to take Shea to jail immediately. Shea saw that he had gone too far and attempted to say something to the sheriff, but the deputies took him too quickly into the hall, and from there to the street, where they halled a cab and conveyed him to jail. President McGee followed in another cab, and in a few minutes the men were inside the jail. Both were searched, according to the usual custom, by Jailer Whitman, and were then taken to cells and locked up. After being in prison for a little more than two hours, both Shea and McGee were released, their attorneys having procured bonds, which were approved by Judge Tuthill. Albert Young, former president on the Teamsters' Union, for whom a warrant was issued, charging him with criminal libel in connection with assertions that Robert J. Thorpe, secretary of Ward & Co., had offered $10,000 to have a strike declared against a rival house of Sears, Roebuck & Co., was arrested late Monday afternoon. He was taken before Sheriff Barrett, where he gave a bond for $5,000. TORNADO SWEEPS MICHIGAN. Flerce Storm Leaves Death and Destruction In Its Wake. An electrical storm which seems to have gone through lower-Michigan on Monday night, took the form of a tornado in the "Thumb" district. Through the counties of Tuscola and Sanlla it swept a path of death and devastation half a mile wide. So far as known two children were killed, seven people fatally injured and three seriously hurt. In addition to the above casualties Elsie Appleman, aged 12, was killed by lightning at Hemcolm, in Saginaw county, and Geo. Morrow was fatally injured by lighting at Central Lake, in Charlevoix county. Three men who had taken refuge with Morrow in a vacant building also sustained severe shocks. The tornado started northeast of Caro and took a northeastly direction, sweeping a path half a mile wide in which residences and farm buildings were razed to the ground and stock and crops suffered heavy damages. Before crossing the line from Tuscola into Sanliac county, the storm split in two. The weaker division passed through Novesta and Snover, while the more destructive branch passed farther to the north, reaching Cass City, Urban and Laing. Near Colwood the house and barn of James H. Mulholland were destroyed and the same fate overtook the home of Thomas Seeley. Near Cass City thirteen residences and nineteen barns were blown down. Nan Patterson Barred from Theater. Messrs. Bowen and Talbott, who own the grand opera house at Columbus, Ohio, have refused to allow Nan Patterson to use their playbouse. DON'T WANT ANDY'S CASH. Governor Vardaman Turns Down Offer to Mississippi University. Governor James K. Vardaman of Mississippi says the board of trustees of the state university has turned down the offer of Andrew Carnegie to give the trustees twenty-five thousand dollars provided a like amount was put up by the state for the purpose of building and equipping a library. Governor Vardaman stated to the Associated Press that he thought the state of Mississippi was in position to supply the university with any equipment that was needed. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JUNE 10. 1905. MOVE OR BE HELD REQUEST TURNED DOWN Permission Granted by Admiral Train His Rescinded by Secretary Taft on Order of President A Washington special says: Admiral Enquist will not be allowed to repair his ships at Manila. This government has decided that as the injuries to the vessels were not caused either by sea or storm, they will be obliged to refuse permission for the vessels to be repaired there. Monday Secretary Taft cabled the following instructions to Governor Wright at Manila regarding the ships: "Time cannot be given for the repair of the injuries received in battle. Therefore, the vessels cannot be repaired unless interned until the end of hostilities." Admiral Train has been instructed accordingly. It was stated by Secretary Taft that if the Russian vessels agreed to leave Manila in their present condition they were welcome to do so, but as it did not appear that they suffered from any damage caused by sea or storm, this government was obliged to take the position above outlined. The president's decision regarding the disposition of the Russian vessels at Manila, that they shall interne or put to sea is, it is said, in Washington, in accordance with the best naval opinion, and is in pursuit of the policy of strict neutrality followed by the Washington government from the beginning of the war. It is specifically declared that there is no intention to show the slightest favoritism in the matter and everything possible will be done for the comfort of the wounded Russians. The ships when interned will, of course, be allowed to be put in a habitable condition, and such repairs as are necessary to keep them afloat will be allowed. The decision of the president was announced after conference with Secretaries Morton and Taft. Rear Admiral Converse, chief of the bureau of navigation, personally took charge of the preparation of Instructions to Rear Admiral Train, who is to be in supreme charge of the details of the internment, this being the practice followed when the Lena put into port at San Francisco, and was interned under the direction of the commandant of the Mare Island navy yard. Instructions to Train. The instructions to Admiral Train when completed will be approved by the secretary and cabled to Manila in the expectation that Admiral Emquist will forthwith decide to interne in view of the bad condition of his vessels. The Japanese minister at Washington having formally inquired of the department of state what action the United States government intends to take respecting the Russian war vessels in Manila bay, Acting Secretary Loomis responded that these vessels would be interned provided they did not leave the harbor at once. This exchange has taken place in order to formally establish the responsibility of the United States for the detention of the vessels in Manila harbor until the end of hostilities. Russia Leaves it to Enquist. A St. Petersburg, dispatch says: Both the foreign office and the admiralty say the decision whether to disarm the three Russian cruisers at Manila or effect repairs there and endeavor to reach a Russian port was left to Admiral Enquist, to determine according to his best judgment. Little doubt was felt that the cruisers will be taken until the end of the war, as before the repairs which Enquist cables are imperative could be effected, a Japanese squadron would be off Corregidor Island, waiting to capture or sink the Russian boats. TWO "JIMMIES" BURY HATCHET Alexander and Hyde Get Together and Settle Differences. James W. Alexander and James H. Hyde, president and first vice president of the Equitable, met in New York Saturday and, it is understood, decided to forget their differences and to act together hereafter in Equitable affairs. The Basis of their agreement is said to have been that they would now attend to life insurance, alone and keep Wall street out of the affairs of the society. Cooledge, Schiff and Ingalls Tire of Ferguson, Browne, Colette of Incesant Row in Society. Plans to establish harmony in the affairs of the Equifable Life Assurance Society were further complicated at New York Monday by the resignation of two more directors, making five in all who have recently retired from from the board. A dispatch from Boston announced that T. Jefferson Coolidge had tendered his resignation, to take, effect immediately, and this would be followed by the resignation of Jacob Schiff, head of the banking house of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who had been a member of the board of directors for twelve years. In addition, announcement came from Cincinnati that Melville E. Ingalls would also resign. - FERTILIZER TAGS WASTED. Such Fact is Developed by Report of George Agricultural Commission. Georgia Agricultural Commissioner. The annual report of the Georgia department of agriculture, recently sued by Commissioner O. B. Stevens, shows that during the year ending December 31, 1904, the department sold to fertilizer manufacturers tags for 177,995.5 tons of guano and cotton seed meal than was really used by the farmers of Georgia. In other words, the report indicates that the fertilizer companies, for reasons probably known to themselves, purchased from the agricultural department over $17,000 worth of tags which were never used, indicating they were recklessly wasted. FARMING IN THE PHILIPPINES. Uncle Sam is Showing the Natives Modern Methods of Agriculture. Modern Methods of Agriculture. George E. Newsm, a former Mississippiian, who is now, assistant director of agriculture in the Philippines, states that the United States government has under cultivation in these islands seven farms, each from 1,000 to 2,000 acres in extent, and twenty-five Americans and 500 natives are being used in the effort to show the Filipinos the modern methods of agriculture. Mr. Newsm states that the natives are taking kindly to the improved machinery used in farming, but the steam roller, self-binder and thresher were such a big jump from the holo, flail and mortar that for quite a while the natives were very much frightened with the new devices. Czar's Action In Making Trepoff a Dictator Causes Mighty Sensaion. ATOR Causes Mighty Sensation. A St. Petersburg dispatch says: Emperor Nicholas' ukase virtually creating Governor General Trepoff dictator, has caused a mighty sensation. It is the imperial recognition of the crisis in the internal affairs of Russia. The ukase came like a bolt from a clear sky. M. Boulgin, minister of the interior, immediately resigned. It is probable that other ministers will follow suit. Eccentric Citizen of Villa Rica, Ga. Under Serious Charge: W. H. Nolan has been arrested at Villa Rica, Ga., on the charge of having poisoned his wife. It is charged that he sent medicine to her containing deadly drugs. Mrs. Nolan is said to have left home recently on account of ill treatment. Nolan is said to be centric. A short time ago he announced for governor. LANDRUM ELECTED PRESIDENT. Atlanta Minister Selected to Head Morgan University at Mercer Dr. W. W. Landrum was usually chosen president of Mercer university Monday by the board of trustees of Mercer University, in session at Macon. The utmost harmony prevailed at both the afternoon and night meetings, and the spirit of amity was remarkable. Dr. Landrum responded to the board in an eloquent and earnest address, stating many reasons for asking time for an answer. PRESIDENT SENT FLOWERS. Confederate Memorial Day Observed at Arlington Cemetery. Confederate memorial day was observed Sunday with appropriate ceremonies in the confederate section of the Arlington national cemetery in Washington.

President and Mrs. Roosevelt sent flowers and regrets at inability to attend in person. A Number of Lives Reported Lost and Geat Property Damage Wrought by Ragling Elements. Reports sent out Tuesday from Detroit say that the rain and windstorm, which was general all over the lower part of Michigan Monday and Monday night, was most severe in many localities. In addition to the loss of life reported, heavy property loss occurred in all directions. At Grand Rapids the rainfall was almost a coudburst. On the west side districts were flooded that were not affected by the great flood of 1904. About 500 homes were surrounded by water. A number of manufacturing plants were compelled to close for the day, their first floors being two and three feet under water. No trains arrived or departed from the city during the early part of the day. Three grand trunk bridges are washed out in Ottawa county. At Lowell the bridge across Grand River was washed out, with two buildings that stood on the bank. At Ionia the Grand river is many feet over its banks and thousands of dollars on damage has been done by the high water. The Spring Brook mill, two miles above Lowell, on the Grand Trunk, were washed out. At Lansing the precipitation was 2.94 inches Monday afternoon and Monday night, the heaviest rainfall in thirteen years. The storm damages in western Michigan is estimated at $50,000. The loss in Grand Rapids and immediate vicinity alone will reach $100,000. The list of those injured in the "Thumb" district by the cyclone was increased on Tuesday when word was received from the village of Kingston that eleven people were injured there. One of them may die. Thirteen houses and eighteen barns were blown down in the vicinity of the village. PLUMBERS IN CONVENTION. National Association Holds Twenty- Third Annual Meeting in Atlanta. The first sessions of the twenty-third annual convention of the National Association of Master Plumbers were held in Atlanta, Ga., Tuesday, the first at 10 o'clock in the morning and the second at 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon. The morning session consisted for the most part of addresses of welcome and response to the same. Governor Terrell, who was slated to deliver the address of welcome on the part of the state of Georgia, was unavoidably absent, and Albert Howell, Jr., made an able substitute. David Craig of Boston called the convention to order, and turned the meeting over to A. F. Bellingrath on the local association. Mr. Bellingrath then introduced General Clement A. Evans, who delivered the opening prayer. Albert Howell, Jr., then made the address on behalf of the state. Following him Mayor Woodward was called upon by the presiding officer to voice the sentiments of the city of Atlanta. Miss Margaret Lilly Ford then read the poem entitled "The Song of the South," which had been written by Frank L. Stanton, especially for the occasion. The poem and the reading were well received. President David Craig made a short but brilliant response on behalf of the national association to the welcome addresses. The routine business of the convention was then begun. NEW MEXICAN AMBASSADOR. President Diaz appointed Joaquin D. Cassaus to be ambassador of Mexico in the United States to succeed the late Manuel Aspiroz. Mr. D.

The Southern Cotton Association Makes an Investigation, as a Result of Which a Very Grave Charge Is Made. A New York dispatch says: Richard Chegatham of Atlanta, secretary of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association, who is in this city, has declared his intention of calling President Roosevelt's attention to what he considers gross irregularities in both the preparation and the publication of the government cotton report issued last Friday. Mr. Cheatham will make no charge of bribery or any other crime, his intention is to ask for a rigile, verification and that the resignation one of the important employee souls statistical bureau of the department of agriculture be demanded. It is understood that he charges some one in the department with having manipulated figures and given them in advance of publication to certain brokers for use in depressing the cotton market. The Southern Cotton Growers Association is an organization of planters and southern brokers, whose object it is to regulate, so far as possible, the acreage of cotton and to protect the planters and other southern interests from manipulation of the market tending to depress the price of the staple. Officers of the association declare they have as many experts as the department of agriculture and make every effort to secure the most trustworthy information regarding the crop condition. For several months the statistics gathered by the association have been at variance with those emanating from Washington, and the officers of the association, together with brokers and cotton merchants in this city have conducted a secret investigation in the hope of ascertaining the reasons for the discrepancy. A prominent broker, it is now asserted, has gathered the most important of documentary evidence in the case. From employees of the department of agriculture, he says, some of whom are in the habit of making frequent visits to this city, he has learned that advance information in regard to the reports could be secured. He followed up this inquiry inquiring whether or not the report has been changed, and alleges he was successful in this endeavor, also receiving letters from at least one of the prominent firms of cotton brokers in this city, which had such an understanding with at least one officer. Mr. Cheatham was notified of the alleged discoveries by telegraph, and made a hurried trip to New York. After many hours spent in consultation, he journeyed to Washington, remained a few hours and returned to New York, saying he desired signatures to a document in his possession. It is said that Cheatham will charge that the figures of the bureau of statistics have been manipulated in the interests of a certain bearish element in the market here and this charge will include not only the furnishing of advance information pertaining to the government figures, but also falsification of these figures. In the case of the report issued, last Friday he will charge that plans were laid a month in advance. Secretary Wilson talks. A Washington dispatch says: Secretary Wilson, at the conclusion of the cabinet meeting, said his attention had been called to the charges of the Southern Cotton association that there had been a "leak". In the information gathered by the agricultural department in regard to the cotton crop: He characterized the charges as ridiculous. It was possible, he said, that somebody connected with the department had been pretending to have knowledge of figures of the department, but, as a matter of fact, it was practically impossible for anybody to, obtain advance information of any value. "The reports from the various states in the cotton belt," said he, "and those from the field agents of the department are received by the statistician under seal and placed in a safe. On the day, when the totals are to be footed and the estimates made these reports are, taken from the safe in the presence of myself, the statistician and such assistants as we may need to do the work. Behind locked doors we examine the report and make up the report, which as soon as we complete the task is given to the public. The Savannah Tribune.

SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1905. The commencement exercises of Fisk University takes place Tuesday evening next at seventhirty o'clock. Among the graduates is Miss Fannie L. Deveaux, daughter of Col. and Mrs. J. H. Deveaux of this city. SOME WEEKS ago we had occasion to insert the following editorial: THE TRIBUNE feels proud whenever any new enterprise is established among our people, but there seems to be a desire of some of us to have too many of the same kind of business. This should not be so. There are many lines of business not yet engaged in that can be conducted profitably. We need a furniture store, a shoe store, a clothing house, etc. Let us open along these lines and not follow beaten paths. Because of that article some of our friends have asserted that we are acting inimical to a certain enterprise. The article is inserted in good faith and the TRIBUNE means every word it contains. In inserting the article we have no intention to hurt any business enterprise. We welcome them all and will do everything in a legitimate way to help them along. JUDGE GEO. T. CANN is to the Superior Court bench of this State what Judge Speer is to the United States Court, an able, fearless and upright judge. Although but a young man, Judge Cann has shown those qualities that are the make up of the ablest judges of this country. When he was selected to succeed the much-liked Judge Barrow, THE-TRIBUNE predicted that he would prove a judge, beloved by all for his fair dealing. This has been verified on many more than one occasion. Not one of our people who has had an occasion to face him can say that he acted less than righteous. It is commonly asserted that justice is more prevalent in the Superior Court of this circuit now than ever before. Judge Cann has delivered many able charges to the grand jury of his court, all of them pregnant with thoughts for the best interest of the community. His recent charge is being favorably commented upon, especially that part which alludes to the Negro The Judge said : "When we come to consider crime in this community we are met with a peculiar condition of affairs, "The white and Negro populations are about equally divided in this county, yet about 90 per cent. of the higher crimes or felonies which our courts are called upon to investigate are chargeable to Negroes. The cost to county tax-payers alone is about $100,000 a year—one third of the total amount expended for all purposes of county government. This enormous sum is taken from the pockets of the law-abiding tax-payers. Cannot something be done to at least to reduce this crime and expense?" This part of his charge is timely and shows that he has the interest, not alone of the community, but of all classes at heart, and a desire to better prevailing conditions. We wish to add to this by saying that out of the large per cent. of persons convicted of crime in these courts not two per cent. of them have been attendants of our public schools. This proves that only, the ignorant ones among us are convicted of crimes. Something can "be done to at least reduce this crime and expense" by giving to the several thousand Negro boys and girls of this city who are unable to secure schooling facilities, another school building. If this be done we would guarantee that within the few years following, crime will be lessened. Judge Caua again asserts that "The law-abiding Negro citizens owe it to themselves, and to their race, aid to the community, to take active and persistent steps to stop this disproportion of crime. It did not exist during slavery. Education and the acquisition of wealth, which have been the great lights hld up to the Negro, ate worse than useless if crime accompanies them. "Such citizens are the only valuable members of a community. Cannot some suggestion be offered to aid in removing this reproach to the Negro race? Cannot the law-abiding Negroes inugurate and prosecute, vigorously a crusade, to remove this reproach? We feel it can be done by earnest work among the leading Negroes and a hearty co-operation of the whites." The judge's kindly feeling toward our race is clearly shown in the above, and THE TRIBUNE assures him that the leading ones, frown upon lawlessness and have been preaching against it. Efforts in this direction will not cease especially with such 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100.

College Comencement. The Commencement Exercises of the Georgia State Industrial College were closed on Wednesday in a manner that must have been gratifying to Col P. W. Meldrim and the Board of Commissioners, and to Prof. R. R. Wright. President of the College. A graduating class of thirteen young men received diplomas, the orators among them acquiring themselves on practical topics in a creditable manner. The diplomas were presented through Chancellor Walter B. Hill of the University of Georgia, by President Wright. Owing to the great overflow of our people interested in the cause of education the exercises were held in the grove adjoining Meldrim Hall, shaded by the magnificent live oaks of a century's growth and as Dr. Booker T. Washington expressed it the greatest auditorium in which he had ever spoken on an occasion of this kind. After the regular program had been rendered and before the presentation of the diplomas President Wright introduced Prof. J. H. N. Waring of Baltimore, Md., who delivered an address that teemed with good advice to the graduates in the commencement of the actual work of life, and to make good and enduring characters for themselves as the surest means of success in whatever pursuit they may enter. The great feature of the day was when that noble, brave and honored citizen of Savannah, Judge Samuel B: Adams in his own fitting terms introduced Dr. Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee. The great crowd appreciated the dramatic scene with demonstrations of their approval and appreciation. Dr. Washington following the able talk of the gentleman, who preceded him exploiting on his own grounds was put on his mettle at once. He paid a gracious compliment to Prof. Warring and then in a new way and manner proceeded to unravel the so-called problems of the races so far its connection with education was concerned. Dr. Washington insisted on his well-known lines that Education not be ornamental, but merely in assistant to the workman or laborer in whatever sphere he may find himself. He got down on the drones among men and women who think because they are educated they are above work and explained that while they are supposedly more intelligent they should set the example to be industrious in whatever work they may find themselves engaged—in other words, never let your education or your affluent circumstances prevent you from keeping your brain and your muscles actively engaged, for the uplift of humanity as well as for the gratification of your own desires. The address was one of the best ever delivered by an educator of the people and its force and effect is appreciated by our people. From the Georgia Industrial school, before leaving the city Dr. Washington attended an informal meeting of the Negro Business League at the Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company, and received a hearty welcome. He addressed those present, as President of the National Business Men's League on the general lines of what is necessary for colored business people to do to insure success in the different avenues of trade and endeavor Dr. Washington and his brilliant young secretary Emmet J. Scott left for Tuskegee the same evening. Glenwood Dots Mr. and Mrs. Jim Choats' baby, that has been very sick died late Saturday morning. It was the only one in their home. The little body was buried in the new cemetery at Stuckey, Ga, Sunday 12 m. The bereaved mother and father have the heart feel sympathy of their many friends. Rev. E. F. Turner and wife, of Alamo, Ga., were in town last Friday Sunday last was communion day at St Mary's chapel A. M. E. church. Rev. H. M. Townsend, ex-pastor, preached a spiritual sermon at 3 p. m.

The closing exercise of the school taught by Mr. Thomas H. Bembry at Hawkinsville, Ga. Pulaski, Co. took place June 2d and 3d. Quite a glorious time was had. Mr. Bembry is commended by the County School Commissioner and Trustees of the school for the good work he has done this term. The Trustees gave Mr. Bembry a purse containing $5.00 as a present for his good work. Masonic Notes Let, every delegate be in his seat at 9 o'clock on Tuesday morning. Come to Americas and see what we are doing for the poor orphans. Do not out one brother of the list; send in a full report. As Mason's let us feel proud of our order. A young fellow not yet in his teens, in conversation with us about Masonry asked "Does not Masonry stand for that which is good?" It struck us forsoily coming from such a one, but what this young man said is true, and it would be well for every Mason to fully incubate it. We received a letter from the Southern part of the state, on Thursday, speaking in the highest terms about a certain brother and boosting him for an office in the Grand Lodge. The communication lauds the brother to the highest, all of which we are proud of, because we want our brothers to be Masons true and we would have been glad to publish it if it stopped there. We wish to inform the writer that Masonry is unlike other secret organizations. Its internal workings are not paraded to the public and the advocating of any brother for position in a public way is the same as holding a caucus which is a grave offence. We wish it to be understood that we are not against the brother's aspirations, but like far him and other brothers to understand the true ethics of Masonry. St. John's Day will be celebrated Sunday June 25 all over the state. There is no prepared program. The Masons of Savannah have arranged to have Dr. W. D. Johnson, Jr., of America, to speak for them on that occasion. The Masonic Lodges will give a mammoth excursion to Beaufort on Monday June 26, Steamer Clifton leaves promptly at 9 o'clock. It will be a joint occasion. Among those here who will attend the Grand Lodge at Americus, are P. G. M., J. H. Deveaux, P. G. M., Alex. Harris, Grand Secretary Sol. C. Johnson, Grand Treasurer G. L. Bowen, Past Masters G. L. Binyard, Edward Petty, S. H. Johnson, W. S. Speight, H. Young, M. G. Robertson, S. G. Ryals and Bro. J. W. Armstrong. Masons to Meet On Tuesday morning next at 9 o'clock the most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons will convene in its thirty-fifth annual communication in the city of Americus. For the past several years the Grand Lodge has been convening in Americus where it has erected a large building for the accommodation of its widows and orphans with a spacious auditorium where hundreds of persons can be casually seated. This communication of the Grand Lodge is expected to be the best in every respect. There will be an increased attendance, and from earlier reports each Lodge will report many more members, thereby increasing the finance. During the year the Lodges got along harmoniously. There has been but slight complaint along this line, and an air of progressiveness seems to have pervaded the entire jurisdiction. Grand Master H. R. Butler, M. D., of Atlanta, makes a model Grand Master and by his faithfulness to duty and a desire to promote the progressive spirit, is doling for the Grand Lodge that which will make the jurisdiction the leading one in the country. Some of the leading colored men in the state are members of this order and in a quiet way are doing that which goes to make our race solid in every way. This Grand Lodge is doing a work that no other organization of its kind is doing. It is caring in a practical way for the poor orphans and widows of the order. In the home a number of little ones are being cared for and the true spirit of manhood and womanhood being instilled in them. The continuance of the present spirit of harmony in the Grand Lodge will cause increased growth along every line. Pythian Pointers. The coming session of the Knights of Pythias Grand Lodge will be the largest in point of attendance. Intelligence has been received that Brigadier General Taylor of Jacksonville, with his staff and a company will be present to unite in the parade Many of the sir knights of Beaufort will also be present. Capt. W. D. Armstrong, the indefatigable chairman of the joint committee will see that all of them are cared for. Assurances have been received from every part of the state that cause us at this juncture to truthfully assert that Sir Chas. A. Clark will be elected on the first ballot with a handsome majority. If the sentiment continues to grow he will be elected unanimously. Grand Chancellor Cresswill would be honored more if he would gracefully decline the use of his name as a candidate for re-election. Defeat for him will not give him the prestige that he otherwise would have. His friends should advise him along this line, for if he goes up he will be overwhelmingly defeated. We need more Supreme Lodge representatives. We can get them by making a change in the Grand Chancellorship. It is being said around the state, especially in the Northern section, that Sir Clark will at a certain time come down in favor of Sir Crosswill. This is false, Clark will stay in the race if he An Allotment at above price.

The proffer of Supreme Representative's place will not induce him to retire. His election is too well assured, even if it was not, he will not under no circumstances retire from the race. Sir Cresswill says that he is not in favor of the Sanitarium tax. Read his report of the Supreme Lodge session and that will show plainly that he heartily endorsed it. Five years should be a plenty. A Change Needed. Stillmore Ga., June 6, 1905 EDITOR SAVANNAH TRIBUNE: Dear Sir, I see Charley Creswill in the boat without an oar. I am afraid, that poor boy will not be able to get back until Charley Clark has slipped in the G. C. Chair, then some tug boat will pull him to land. It will be too late then Charley. Well I love both of these Sir Knights, but if one man remains in office always you will not know what the others can do, so if this is a good thing pass it around. Charley denies his accessory to this temple tax movement; well if he can prove that Saul of Tarsus was not an accessory to the stoning of Stephen by holding the garments of those that stoned him, then Creswill is not accessory to the imposition of this temple tax movement, and being on that committee. Let THE TRIBUNE at once elect Charley Clark for G. C.; F. M. Cohen, G. M. of E.; G. Taylor, G. L.; H. R. Butler; G. M. R. and Bro. Warren, G. A. of R. and S. Respectfully Yours, W. W. Lyons, K. of R. and S. Mt. Pleasant Lodges No. 88. Is the Report Untrue? While in Savannah, Grand Chancellor Cresswill publicly announced that he was not in favor of the Pythian Sanitarium tax. There are those who know that he attempted to convince us that it was "a good thing." After he found out that the Sir Kuights all over the state are down on him about it, he is now trying to hedge on that point, but he should at least stick to his principle. If he was against the tax he should at least say so to the Grand Lodge and not make the following report that is found on page 64 of the Grand Lodge proceedings of 1904: "On Nov. 1st, C. D. Creswill; of your representatives, was requested to meet a committee on Pythian Temple and Sanitarium in the city of St. Louis, on Nov. 28th, at which time and place the matter of building the Temple and Sanitarium was fully discussed." * * * "It is contended by some that this act is unconstitutional in that the Grand and Subordinate Lodges had no vote on the matter, but this contention is baseless, as you and every other Grand Lodge elected Representatives to the Supreme Lodge, and they in turn, investigated and passed on the merits of the case and decided it was a wise and necessary movement. We advise the payment of the tax." Alexander's Magazine Alexander's Magazine has just reached our office. It is in every respect the most excellent publication of the character we have ever seen. The table of contents reveal an unusual array of fine literary talent. Perhaps the most notable contribution to the Magazine is that of the sketch of the life of S. Coleridge-Taylor, the great African composer. This sketch is written by Dr. Booker T. Washington of the Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. There are two fascinating love stories and a sketch of Madam Estella Pinckney Clough, the New England Nightingale, whose residence is at Worcester, Mass., and a catchy little story called "Outwitting the Devil" by a distinguished citizen of Mass chusets. The Editor concludes the life of the writer W. Clifford of Cleveland, Ohio, and a tribute to the late John Jefferson. There are quite a number of other very excellent contributions to the May Number of Alexander's Magazine. The subscription price of the magazine is but $1.00 a year and to cents a copy.

Pluck Adventure. GREAT WHITE HERON. ES," he said, deliberately, "a man who has spent the best part of his seventy years scouring the wild quarters of the earth as a naturalist and museum-maker is likely to have had what you call 'experiences.'" He paused and deftly put in the kink to the tip of an opossum's tail. I had brought the specimen and was watch- ing him mount it. "The nearest I ever came to a real escape, so far as I know, happened on my first trip to the Florida Everglades. I am not boasting when I say that I was the first white man to explore the Everglades thoroughly and map Okechobee. "The alligators about there were a source of constant danger. They were to be stepped on in the bogs, bumped against in the water, tumbled over everywhere. "Such a neighborhood is calculated to make one careful and alert. But I was young, and, though naturally cautious, I had not developed the woodsman's wariness into a habit. Under any sudden excitement I was likely to forget. "I had left my new camp shortly after noon, intending to wade across the marsh to a mound that was plainly visible about four miles away. "An Indian and a Georgia 'eracker' made up my party. We had penetrated several miles into the low country, and were still some distance from Okechobee, for instead of descending the Kissimmee, we had worked in on the Caloosahatchee as far as we could, and were following creeks and lagoons in our bateau. "This afternoon, instead of taking the two men, as usual, I left them to finish the camp, and went off alone. As large speeches, even of birds, were out of the question at this end of the journey, I took only the light shotgun, thinking I might need it for some small, rare species. The mound proved fully five miles away, and I had traveled so slowly through the muck and dense grass that the afternoon was nearly spent by the time I turned back toward camp. "As the dusk settled I moved with what speed I could, for the neighborhood was not a pleasant one to sleep in. Something in the quaking, boggy bottom, in the all-enclosing sedge, the heavy vapors and the vast, empty twilight puts one out of the mood for sleep. And as I passed along, I could hear off on my right the occasional bellow of a bull alligator. "I was half-way back, perhaps, when I came upon a sheet of water, a small lagoon, that lay as if it had been dug out of the marsh, so clean and sharp were its grassy walls. "The sedges and grass here were head-high, but the ground was so thickly rooted and firm that I worked out along the edge of the lagoon, partly for the relief of the free vision, partly to see what might be going on in the water. "Nothing was going on, but out in the middle of the quiet pool lay what appeared to be a long, water-soaked log. It was an immense alligator that had risen to the surface with the twilight, and was waiting for anything eatable that might come along. "I was tempted to sting him with a charge of bird-shot. But I didn't fire, just why I don't know, because up to this time I had not learned enough to let a sleeping alligator lie, and save my ammunition. "I had taken a few steps forward when I saw, flying toward me over the lagoon, a large heron of some kind. He veered into the light a little, and instantly I discovered that it was not the common blue species, but a large white bird, which could be none other than the great white heron of Cuba and Jamaica. "I had never seen the bird alive before. This was a stray wanderer, and might be the only one I should meet. I must have it, and to get the best possible shot, I crept hurriedly through the grass to the edge of the water, and drew myself down out of sight. "No suspicion of danger crossed my mind. I had not thought of looking at my steps for a possible moccasin, or about me in the tall grass for a waiting alligator. My eyes, my whole attention were fixed on the great enowy bird approaching; and when his deliberate wings expanded almost over me I fired. "The bird recoiled and shot upward, the report rang in my cars, and simultaneously a fearful blow from belind hurled me headlong into the pool. "The breath was knocked wholly out of me, and most of my wits, too; but I realized that the slashing blow had been struck by an alligator, which had been lying concealed in the grass, with its tail in swinging range of me. And another thing I was conscious of the moment I felt the muddy bottom—that there was another alligator in the ooze under me, and that he was churning up a lively, suds in his surprise. "I had been flung upon the creature as it lay on the bottom, flung fairly astride him, and he was plunging mady about in his endeavor to shake me off. I tried to hold on, for upon his back I was safe at least from his terrible jaws. But he plunged and bent and doubled like a bucking horse, until he threw me. I felt his tail pass along my leg and saw him plowing toward the centre of the pool. Then suddenly he wheeled for me. "The water was only waist-deep. The gun was still in my hands, though I hardly knew if until I saw the beast charging-at me. Seizing the barrel as the beast lunged within reach. I swung the butt and brought it down with all my might upon the square, ugly snout. "It touched a tender spot and checked him. He backed away, a bit bewildered, and I was turning toward the shore when I saw another alligator coming. The one that I had first seen in the middle of the pool had caught sight of me and was now swimming rapidly in my direction. "I was within ten feet of the shore, with the water hardly to my belt, but with my first step the mud caught at my knees. I reached out for the long grass, dragged one foot free, but sunk the other deeper. Then there was a splash behind me, and glancing back I saw, not one, but two brutes coming. The one I had hit had turned, and both were charging. "In a craze of terror I tried again to get out, but the alligators were now almost upon me, and I faced them to fight it out. I had nothing to use for a weapon but the empty gun, and only half a chance with that in my twisted, trapped position. "As the two wicked heads lunged up, I marked the nearest one, the one on my right, and swung the gun, when, in the thick, rolled water before me, floated something white. "I seized it and hurled it into the months of the alligators! "It was the white heron. "The brutes caught it, tore it asunder, then reared their horrid lengths half out of the water and fell upon each other in a savage struggle for the bird. "Without stopping to watch, I dropped the gun into the mud, got a foot upon it, and pulling the other clear, wallowed to the bank, while the clashing of scales and teeth continued." "When I ran down to breathe at last, I was nearly to camp, and far out of sound of the battle. Whether the third one—the one that had knocked me into the pool—joined the fray I do not know. But it is likely. "My shot had killed the heron, but so quickly was the blow dealt me that I must have struck the water first, and the bird, falling, had been tramped into the mud. It was one of the long, white wings that had reached the surface and caught my eye. "We were able to fish the gun out of the mud the following morning, but there were only one or two feathers of the heron floating like flakes of snow upon the black surface of the pool. And though I have made many a trip to Florida since, I have never seen another of the great white birds."—Youth's Companion. LIONS IN AFRICA News is to hand from two independent sources of an extraordinary adventure that recently befell Mr. Dickert, a farmer living some fifteen miles from Malludi Siding, on the Wankies line. Mr. Dickert went to bed at 10 o'clock and was just going to sleep when he heard what he thought was a pig grunting and sniffing outside the door. He got up and stepped outside to call his dogs, when he was seized by a lion. He shouted, and Mrs. Dickert ran out with a rifle, with which she hit the animal on the head, causing it to loose its hold. Mr. Dickert immediately snatched at the rife and fired, point blank, fortunately killing the lion at the first shot. The whole affair was over in a few seconds and occurred close to the bedroom door, where the hungry animal had evidently been waiting. Mr. Dickert was badly scratched and had his arm lacerated where the lion seized him. Though sufficiently serious at the time, he now looks upon the adventure as one of the most novel of his experiences. The people at Malindi Siding have been annoyed by a lion that developed the habit of coming right up to the station and was heard, in the neighborhood of the railway men's houses. A short time ago the conductor of the Falls train and several of the passengers saw two young lions playing between the rails near the Gwaal. Further up the line in the direction of the Zambesi the lions appear to be much more numerous. Not long since the native commissioner at Mateisi is reported to have had fifteen head of live stock killed in broad daylight by nine lions which were hunting together. Quite lately two or three lions have been seen close to the Victoria Falls on the south side of the river, but for the reassurance of visitors it may be mentioned that they only appeared at night and were exceedingly shy of any human being. At Dett, which is on the same line of railway, a few weeks ago the remains were found of a white man who could not be identified and who appeared to have been killed and partly eaten by lions. Another European wena-accosted for traveling without a ticket hastily left the train in the same district, made off in the darkness and has not been seen since. All of which shows that there is plenty of work awaiting the sportsmen, even in southern Rhodesia. -South Africa. DARING RUSSIAN NURSE. Among the prisoners of war who have arrived at Ninoshima is a woman, states the Kobe (Japan) Chronicle. How the fact was discovered is not related, but she arrived among her comrades in the ordinary way. Her name is given as Ekaterina Bagdanog, and she is stated to have first joined the expedition which dealt with the Boxers. She declares that she adopted male attire with the object of being included among the Russian prisoners and so coming to Japan, her object being to nurse the wounded who are prisoners. The gold production of Australasia in 1004 was 4,194,822 fine ounces. OF INTEREST TO WOMEN HATS MADE OF WOOD. The Japanese are experts in the manufacture of summer hats, a large quantity of which are annually exported to this country. According to a dealer in these goods they are made of wood, but so thin and pliable is the fiber that it is usually mistaken for chip or straw, and some of the finest hats for women are made of this material. It has the texture of fine satin, but is really a shaving, poplar, spruce, cherry, Chinese cypress and other trees being planed in a special manner and with special tools. The shavings are dyed the colors desired and the strips are pleated like straw. Chip braid is the technical term and the material was exhibited at the St. Louis Fair—Indianapolis News. NEEDLE USED BY MEN. The masculine equivalent of the word needlewoman probably is not found in any grammar or dictionary. Yet the use of the needle by men is not at all uncommon. Sewing is a masculine occupation in India, and without going so far afield "needlemen" may easily be found. In Europe the art of needlecraft has some illustrious male devotees. The Grand Duke of Hesse is devoted to embroidery, and among the treasured possessions of Queen Alexandra is a magnificent shawl crocheted by the Crown Prince of Denmark. J. Catheart Wason, the representative of Orkney and Shetland Islands in the British House of Commons, knits his own stockings, and only the chaffing of fellow members has deterred him, it is said, from plying the knitting needles in the smoking room of the House of Commons. Gerald Balfour, nephew of the British Premier, is also fond of knitting, while Victor Bowring-Hambury seeks mental relaxation in fine embroidery. DO MEN LIKE CLEVER WOMEN? A woman who has been visiting in London says apropos of her experiences and observations in the English capital: "The other day a placard outside a stationer's shop caught my eye, for in big letters diagonally across it were the words, 'Do Men Like Clever Women?' It is very funny, how eternally 'that silly question is threshed out. Of course, they like clever women; would be very silly if they didn't, and especially the woman who knows how to economize cleverly, who when the Stock Exchange is stagnant and things generally below par, knows how to keep things going without making her husband feel acutely the difference. And where does the clever economist tell out more than in matter of dress? The brawnless is generally the extravagant woman—doesn't know how to adapt this and that, and the other thing; doesn't know, for instance, how with some inexpensive ready-made thing perhaps to contrive a charming costume."—Indianapolis News. JAPANESE WOMEN. The Japanese woman is in many respects like her Western sister, though her methods of carrying out the same ideas may seem to be so different. For instance, while the Japanese woman could not be induced to tight lace her waist, she binds up her loins so tightly that she cannot walk, but must just shuffle. Though her clothes, too, seem to be free from ornament, she has her methods of being ornamental, and even extravagant. For instance, every time her hair is taken down two hours are spent in dressing it, and nothing would induce her to go to a picnic or a theatre without popping into the sleeves of her kimono her little dressing case made of scarlet brocade, which contains her steel mirror and diminutive boxes of lip salve, face powder and eyebrow renovator; nor would she go to her temple to pray if her obi did not sit just as an obi ought to sit, and has ever sat, since it was adopted by the contemporaries of the Sun Goddess.—More Queer Things About Japan. HAND EMBROIDERY A FEATURE Hand embroidery is a feature of the most charming of the new models. It appears in dainty touches on street and visiting toilettes, and to a far greater extent on some of the more elaborate dinner and reception costumes. Crepe be chine takes embroidery most effectively, as anyone who has observed the Japanese embroideries on crepe can testify. A handsome dinner gown is of one seam crepe de chine in a pale lemon tint, the double width material being necessary for satisfactorily carrying out the flowing lines of the skirt. The skirt falls in plain straight folds, is one decoration being the heavy rose pattern embroidered in fine silk, the garlands or sprays scattered irregularly from the hem to about knee depth. The embroidery is in the exact shade of the crepe de chine, this matching of the silks to the fabric color being a feature of the finest work. The bodice is a draped effect over a fully feathered lining, the sleeves or shoulder puffs ending in frills of lace and capped with lace epaulettes. A distinctive feature is the silk and velvet petaled roses disposed of. on the shoulder and bustline of the bodice, these matching in shade the roses on the skirt.—Washington Times. FWO HINTS FOR SUMMER WEAR. "Is it because the sequin frock is always wreathed in smiles that it is re- warded with such special favor?" asked a woman during a recent discussion of the ever interesting question of dress. "It is positively years ago since the decease of the sequin frock was daily expected, but it flourishes still. The thing is always smiling, always sparkling and cheery; I believe that must be the secret of its success, of its impregnable position in the heart of womankind, and of mankind for the matter of that. Have I not myself been beguiled into a sequin frock, something all mother-of-pear and very fine steel sequins, those contrasting with soft chenille embroideries, and lots of other details all going to make a most fascinating surface?" The raised laces come in handily for one's summer dressmaking. One can do much with a wide band of raised lace and the newest raised patterns show wheels of lace as well as other designs. One very lovely pattern displays a row of raised roses, wonderful things with a lace background. One can get the biscuit colored laces and can use them for hip yokes in name only, for they are not more than a finger wide. They are really only a finish for the girdle, which is of silk, folded deeply and pulled down to a point in the front and in the back. The girdle is finished with a band of lace a finger deep, which has something the appearance of a hip yoke. Bovdoir CHAT: If all the girls who read beauty recipes should heed the advice given them to make themselves "kissable" they would have to wear veils in the streets. Japanese women understand politics, but they will never vote without an entire reversal of Japanese etiquette. It is the highest of bad form for a woman to express an opinion contrary to that of her husband. "Ally, dear," a well-known woman asked across the table at a recent dinner, "have we any children? I forget." Another silenced her husband at lunchon by saying: "Husbands are made to be seen, not to be heard."—London Truth. "A girl of twelve was committed to a reform school from a London court the other day. She had stolen money from her mother, taken off her little brother's clothes and sold them, and boiled the family cat alive." England always develops the newest things in new women. A bride in a $40,000 wedding dress rather takes the gimp out of the average society girl's gorgeousness, but when the daughter of the Sultan marries there's nothing mean about her bridal attire, and this was the costly wedding dress prepared by two "millars" in the Yildiz Kiosk. It was sewn thick with real pearls and the operation watched over by an officer and two soldiers to insure the "millners" from swallowing any of the pearls. For the first time, so far as is known, a marriage ceremony in England has been performed by a woman. This singular scene was witnessed in the Nonconformist Church in Blackburn, and what also was remarkable was that it was the minister himself who consented to stand aside in favor of the female deputy. The bride and bridegroom were standing talking to Mrs. Lewis, a well-known temperance advocate, and waiting for the minister, who as he came in, overheard the bride remark: "I wish you could marry us, Mrs. Lewis." Thereupon the minister said: "Well, do so, Mrs. Lewis. Why not?" and so she did. A very handsome small hat was in two tones of blue straw, one of the rough spiny varieties. Tabs are no longer worn. The very swell collars have nothing on the front, but it closely to the neck. A heavy white linen crash suit had the collar edged with green linen, and had a green emblem embroidered on the shield. A very simple gown of mignonette green louisine, a very soft and clinging fabric, had a skirt shirred in a deep dip yoke, the shirring heavily corded. Collar and cuff sets are a favorite. They come in any material, whether fine or coarse, and they are indeed a blessing for the business woman. A beautiful parasol in pale blue taffeta had a border of natural linen crash embroidered in French knots in pale blue. Edging the linen was a tucked piece of silk about two inches wide. The Persian effects, which are so prevalent on the summer frocks, are extending to the neckwear department. Every smart summer girl will include several of these in her assortment of summer collars. The woman who is her own dressmaker finds it rather an easy matter to have collars which are becoming and well made. It is quite possible to match almost any color and material in the shops, and collars of any size, shape and style may be bought for comparatively small sums. ATLANTIC COAST LINE RAILROAD CO.

The ancient whip in use in York County, Penn., in the Colonial days, when law-breakers were flogged at the whipping post in the yard of the old jail, recently has found its way into the museum of the York County Historical Society. The whip was used by the county sheriffs and their deputies "under authority of our sovereign Lord, King George." The site of the jail is now occupied by a modern business building. The whip was made of strips of rawhide tightly wrapped and woven and terminating in two long lashes. The lash is about 28 inches in length and is attached to a handle of deer horn about 9 inches long. The handle is ornamented with crude carvings, of rings and diagonal lines running between. The late Jorge Cullison, father of Obe Cullison, found it in the attic of the Colonial Court House, when that structure was torn down in 1841, and the relic was preserved in the Cullison family until its recent presentation to the Historical Society. The whipping post was in use in York County under the provincial law from 1749, the year of the erection of the county, until 1776, when coronal punishment of criminals was prohibited by the first constitution of the new commonwealth. Under the English law, criminals' guilty of theft, burglary, counterfeiting, and wifebeating, after being convicted in open court, were sentenced to be tled to the whipping post and whipped in public. In archives of the York County Court there are records showing that fifty persons were punished at the whipping post. One fellow, guilty of counterfeiting Spanish coins, in 1765, received thirty-nine lashes on the bare back and was sold into servitude for two years because he could not pay a fine of £100. If the wishes of the American people had prevailed, Fitzhugh Lee would have been buried in the Campo Santo at Arlington, and a stately shaft would have risen there to his memory. But his own desire has prevailed, very rightfully, thinks the Hartford Courant. Years ago, as we now learn, he told his family he wanted to be buried in the Hollywood Cemetery at Richmond when the time came and on one occasion at least he pointed out the very spot—near Jefferson Davis's grave—where he wished his grave to be made. Several Atlantic liners arrived in New York harbor within a single day, bringing to our shores 12,000 immigrants. The New York newspapers say the new arrivals are a sturdy lot, and that few or none of them will be sent back. The steamship companies closely scrutinize applicants for passage on the other side, and few deportations, therefore, become necessary. Medicine, like law, is only applicable to transgressors. Those who live correct lives require neither law nor medicine, says Medical Talk. *37 *57 Via Montgomery. 3 15s 6 45p Lv.Savannah..Ar ... ... Lv 6 15p 8 05a "Mtgomery."

Probably in all Salem there is no better collection of antiques than that in the house of Charles R. Waters. Among the highly valued articles is an old armchair covered with leather, and showing little of the ravages of time. Originally it was in the posses- slon of no less a personage than Nathaniel Hawthorne. In this chair sat Hawthorne when he wrote many of his books. The celebrated author was a great friend of Hon. Joseph G. Waters, and it was at the latter's house that he was a frequent visitor. The present owner of the chair remembers the author well, and describes him as interesting in conversation. Horace G. Ingersoll, who was Hawthorne's closest friend, with perhaps the exception of Franklin Pierce, once had possession of the chair, and it was for many years treasured by him.

Christianity has made comparatively little progress in India where most of the people cling to their heathen gods. Down in the valley of "Well-Enough" men are earless and joyous and free; They toil and they cat and they love a bit, and they grow old happily; While off in the hazy distance gleam the peaks of the unknown: "Fame," And none that has traveled that difficult steep can enter the valley again. The way is o'er rocks, sharp and jagged and cruel; through fierce heat, with a dead- ening thirst; While the water drips cool, far below in the depths of the way that to him is ac- curred. How he longs, all in vain, for a friendly handclasp, for the smiles that were ready and true; But he may not turn back, so he struggles along, with the joy of achievement in view. And at last, oh, long journey; see torn hands and feet, and face drawn and wrinkled with pain! He stands at the summit of great desire, to dwell on his priceless gain. And then—ah, the sadness of heart-break! was not that a man's cry of woe? For he longs to return to the land he has lost—to the "Well-Enough" valley below. —Grace G. Bostwick, in New York Tribune. AM tired of this delay. Marion. I want the matter settled definitely, and at once." from backgrounds of ruby velvet paintings that an amateur would have valued at their weight in gold opened the glow of Neapolitan skies and palms 1 "You are very unreasonable, count, said Dale. Do hole, aunt," said Miss_Delancy, shrugging her shoulders petulantly. "Things of this sort can't be hurried up in a moment." "A moment!" echoed Mrs. Gardiner. "Why, it's full three months since Grey Pelham commenced visiting you!" "Set your heart at rest, aunt," said Marion, with a glance of triumph shooting from beneath her drooping, blue-ruined cyelids. "If ever a man was desperately in love, he is—the time of his bachelor freedom grows short." "But how short?" "Will you be satisfied if he proposes in a week?" "Yes—but he will not." "Leave him to me!" said the tall beauty, imperiously. "I am as impatient as you are—but I know very well it will not do to show it." "It is shockingly expensive," said Mrs. Gardiner, plaintively. "When I took the furnished house for six months, I supposed you would be off my hands long before this—and the servants' bills, and the account for the coupe, with the driver in white gloves, and—" "Spare me the reiteration of household annoyances, aunt," said Marion, impatiently. "You are supposed to be a wealthy dowager. I, your heiress niece. What sort of society do you suppose we could have commanded if people had known our real status?" "Well, I suppose you are right," said Mrs. Gardiner, disconcertedly. "but, dear me, Marion, if this last chance should fall—" "It will not fail, aunt. Haven't I told you to set your heart at rest?" Marion rose slowly, walked, with the step of a princess, to the full length mirror, framed in a net-work of gilt passion vine leaves, and looked into its surface. What a lovely picture smiled back upon her, flushed with the soft wine-light of sunset. A tall, flexible figure, full of unstudied grace; a small head, royally set upon the slender, snowy throat, and crowned with braids of silken black hair, coiled round and round in glossy profusion. Her complexion was rather dark, but fine grained as satin, with a delicate crimson glow on either cheek, and lips full and scarlet as newly ripened cherries, while her lovely black eyes, large and soft as velvet, gave a tender expression to the whole countenance. "Yes," murmured Marion Delancy, half aloud. "I have beauty — Grey Pelham has rank and wealth. Are we not evenly matched? What right has he to ask for more?" The thoughts were yet fitting through her brain, when a servant entered, with a sealed missive in her hand. "A telegram, miss, just arrived!" Marion caught it from the servant's hand and tore it open. "Miss Delancy." it read, "your father is much worse and more troublesome to-day, and I cannot continue to sake charge of him, unless arrears are paid up at once. If I do not see you soon, I shall bring him up to New York, and return him to your care. "SARAH DARBY." Marion flushed scarlet, and bit her lip until her small, white teeth gleamed vindictively. "What a bother!" she muttered to herself, "but it is just like that spiteful old Darby to carry her senseless threats into execution. I must get ten dollars from Aunt Gardiner to stop her mouth with; and the sooner the better. Perhaps I had best take the evening express down to Berksale at once." She glanced at her tiny Geneva watch. "Yes, I have time; but I ought not to waste it now, of all times! One night's delay may cast some chill across the glow of Grey Pelham's love; but there is no alternative left me." And the evening express carried Miss Delancy down to the obscure little village where her poor, crazed, old father was farmed out, at the least possible rates of compensation, to a hard faced widow with a heart like adamant and sympathes dried down to the merest shreds. Meanwhile, Grey Pelham, Esquire, in his elegant bachelor sanctum, was preparing himself elaborately for an evening call on his fair goddess. It was a room whose adornment and decoration bespoke not only wealth without stint or limit, but refined taste and highly cultured appreciation. Exquisite little bronze groups glimmered on carved brackets: statuettes of alabaster leaned By Helen Forrest Grayes. from backgrounds of ruby velvet; paintings that an amateur would have valued at their weight in gold opened the glow of Neapolitan skies and misty Swiss valleys to the eye, and cabinets of rare cameos and antique coins filled the recesses. But the student and philosopher were now merged in the enthusiastic lover, Grey Pelham had lost his heart to the mystic sparkles of Marion Delancy's marvelous, velvet black eyes, and "Love was now the lord of all," according to the orthodox burden of song and story. He was a handsome, well built man of about thirty, with brown hair, deep hazel eyes, and features, which if not strictly regular, were sufficiently moulded, and possessed the rare merit of expression. The last sunset rays were just touching the stone cornices of the elegant mansion that Mrs. Gardiner called "her ancestral inheritance"—not deeming it worth while to mention the trifling fact that it was rented from a Jewish stock broker at a thousand dollars a month—when Mr. Pelham rang the doorbell. "Out of town?" he repeated, after the servant. "How unfortunate! Where has she gone, and when did she go?" Now, Margery being a new servant, had not yet learned the crooked ways and wiles of the Gardiner household, and unwittingly answered the truth. "She's gone to Berksdal, sir, and maybe she'll be obliged to stay two or three days, I heard her tell the missus. It's at Mrs. Darby's, sir, where—" "Berksdale ch?" Mr. Pelham knew that another train left within the next hour or so—the last train that night, and he resolved to follow his bright beacon star forwards. Poor fellow, he had reached that desperate stage in love in which all spots where the beloved one is not are howling wildernesses. He slipped a bank bill into Margery's not unwilling fingers, and hurried down the street. "I will seek her out, and let her sweet lips decide my fate at once," he thought. "Marion! How appropriate is the sweet Scottish name to her pure and gentle womanliness! All the Marions in poetry and romance are models of grace and gentleness, and she is no exception." (You see that Mr. Pelham was very much in love.) Berkshire was soon reached by the iron feet of steam, but, rapid as the progress was, it failed to keep pace with the young man's feverish impatience. It was eight o'clock, with a full moon shining upon the fresh spring foliage, when, after having been duly directed to Mrs. Darby's, he set forth on his walk to the secluded village nook. "Darby—Mrs. Darby? She do be the one who keeps the old, crazy gentleman, and a rare un she is to tjump him round! Oh, yes, sir. Ain't more'n a mile beyant the big, church—a red house, with a big poplar tree in front." Thus instructed with regard, to the locality, Grey Pelham felt that he could not well go wrong. The red house, with a big popular tree in front, presented no very inviting aspect as he strode up to the wide-open door. The blinds hung on one hinge, creeking dolefully in the breeze; the gate was tied up with loops of rusty rope, where nails should have been; and broken crockery, invalid tinware and heaps of oyster shells adorned the dooryard in lieu of velvety grass and borders of flowers. Grey Pelham, wondering a little as to what business could possibly bring Marion Delancy to such a spot as this, knocked at the open door, but no one responded to the summons. He knocked again, and yet a third time, with no better success, and finally walked boldly into a little sitting room, where yawning portals seemed to invite entrance. A single oll lamp burned on the table, by whose light he could just find his way to a chair. "I suppose I may as well sit down here and wait until some one comes," he said, resignedly to himself. As he did so, he became aware of voices in the adjoining apartment, raised high in altercation, and of a name spoken in shrill tones—a name, dear and precious in his ears. "I tell you, Miss Delancy, 'taint enough! Two dollars in a week won't pay his board, let alone the clothes and the lodging!" And Marion's accents, silvery sweet, answered in low, measured tones: "Two dollars a week is a great deal of money for an old man who chop wood, and dig garden, and help you so much about the house." "But he won't help, Miss Delancy—he just sifs and mopes the whole time. The doctor says he ought to have wine." "Oh, nonsense! I can't afford to buy SUPPLEMENT TO SAVANNAH TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1905. him wink! That's all an absurd notion!" "Well, he is your own father, Miss Delancy; fix it any way you please, and it ain't hardly decent to let him starve." "You are too extravagant in your ideas, Mrs. Darby. What can an old man like that want of new clothes and dainty fare? I tell you, I can't afford to pay you more than two dollars a week; my expenses in New York are ruinous, and—" "Then you may as well send him to the poorhouse at once, Miss Delancy. I won't undertake to keep him short of three dollars, at the very least." "I don't like to do that," Marlon answered, hesitatingly, as if the idea commended itself to her as not impracticable in some respects. "People will talk." CHILDREN'S THE BURRO. The burro is a tiny beast, No bigger than a St. Bernard, But he can haul an awful load O'er any road, however hard. He weighs about three hundred pounds, And he can carry on his back "They'll talk just the same if you let him starve to death here, and a good deal worse." "It's a great nuisance," said Marlon, impatiently. "Well, I suppose I will have to pay you two dollars and a half." The other woman grumblingly assented, but added: "Don't you want to see him? He's talked a great deal about his pretty girl's comin'." "See him? Oh, no, not for the world! It always racks my nerves. You needn't tell him I've been here!" "Well!" ejaculated the other; "If you ain't the coolest one, Miss Delancy! I don't set up to be the most devoted daughter in existence, but if my father was like your'n, I'd want at least to see him once in a while." "What would be the use? Here's the quarter's money in advance; and if he gets violent or troublesome again, just lock him upon bread and water! Now, show me to my room, please, for I've got to get back in the early train to-morrow morning, before my devoted cavalier misses me!" "Then it's true that you are going to marry a rich man down in New York, Miss Delancyl Squire Frothingham said you was, but, la! there's heaps o' reports that haven't no more foundation than a whiff of smoke." Miss Delancyl laughed triumphantly. "You will see, three months from now, Mrs. Darby. That's right; get the candle, for there is nothing that spoils my complexion like want of sleep!" Grey Pelham had sat as motionless during this conversation as if he had been turned to stone! Honorable gentleman that he was, he would have scorned the idea of eavesdropping; but he had been spellbound--thunderstruck. Was this cold hearted, cruel worlding, whose very natural affection seemed frozen in her veins, the Marion he had worshiped with such blind, unquestioning idolatry? Was it possible that he had been deceived all these months? Like the downfall of some superb edifice, undermined at once and entirely, his dream of love crashed to the earth! He buried his face in his hands, with a low, bitter groan, given to the memory of the Marion whom he now knew had never existed, save in his own imagination. Then he rose and went out in the cool, clear moonlight, staggering like one just risen from a bed of serious sickness. He was thankful now that he had encountered no one—that he was free to depart without question or doubt. Disenchanted — undeceived! The blow had been a cruel one, but Grey, Pelham recognized the kindness of the Hand that had struck it, and returned to New York, resolved to bear it with what quanimity he could. Miss Delancy waited, but waited in vain, for Mr. Pelham's anticipated call; and finally at the end of three days dispatched a little pink note, perfumed with the otter of roses, to ask the reason of his unwonted absence. The servant brought back the note unopened. "Please, miss, he sailed for Havana this morning!" A month subsequently the exasperated creditors of Mrs. Percy Gardner met in the elegantly furnished house, just in time to deplore their own dilloriness, for that smiling matron had decamped, leaving an array of debts behind her that might have awed the notorious Mrs. Chadwick, the Ohio prisoner. And that was the disastrous end of Marion Delancy's matrimonial campaign-New York Weekly. Kisses Classified.

THE CROCODILE The following is a Chicago boy's composition on "The Crocodile." "The crocodile is a large animal that inhabits the Nile and loves to go on the sandy beach to bask in the sunshine and lay eggs. It looks some like a dachsun, only there is more of it at the ends and it is bigger. There was a crocodile once that escaped from a circus. It roamed over the country, seeking in vain for pigs and small children to devour, and died of starvation in great anguish. You can ride on the back of a crocodile, but it is more comfortable to use a saddle. It is usually quiet, but is terrible when roused. We all ought to be thankful we are not a crocodile." A SIMPLE BAROMETER. The accompanying illustration, taken from the New York Evening Mall, shows a simple but reliable barometer that any boy or girl can make with very little trouble and at no cost. When you make a device of this kind yourself you take a good deal more interest in it than in one bought at the shop. To make the barometer that we here illustrate the only articles needed are a wide mouth pickle jar and a clean Venetian oil flask. Pour plain water into the pickle jar until it reaches to HOW IT IS PUT TOGETHER. within one-third of the top. Make a hole in the cork of the jar that will receive the neck of the flask, and allow it to go down far enough in the jar just to enter the water. That is all. The illustration shows the whole thing. Look at your barometer every day, and if you see that the water is well up in the neck of the flask the weather is going to be fine; if, on the contrary, the water has fallen it means that the air is damp and that the weather is likely to be stormy. THE EAGLE'S EYE All birds of prey have a peculiarly of eye structure that enables them to see near or distant objects equally well. An eagle will ascend more than a mile in height, and from that great elevation can perceive its prey, small though it may be, and pounce on it with certainty. Yet it can examine an object close at hand just as well, thus possessing a power of accommodating its sight to distance that is impossible to the human eye. In looking at this page you find that there is some particular distance, probably about ten inches, at which you can see each letter distinctly and-read the words; but if you move the page off to a distance of forty inches, or bring it up to within five inches of your eyes, you cannot read it at all. But the eagle has the power of altering what is called the focus of its eye as it pleases. It has only to look at an object from a distance of two miles or a few inches to see it equally well. The ball of the eye is surrounded by fifteen little plates, called sclerotic bones. They form a complete ring, and their edges slightly overlap each other. When it looks at a distant object this circle of bones expands, and the ball of the eye, being relieved from the pressure, becomes flatter; when it looks at a near object the circle contracts and the ball of the eye is squeezed into a rounder form. All this is done involuntarily; it is simply a provision of nature. In human beings a very round eye is near-sighted, and a flat eye is far-sighted; and the eagle has first one and then the other, as it may suit his purpose.—New York Evening Mail. AUNT MARY STORIES. Wolves were numerous in the early days in Indiana. My father always brought the sheep into a lot close to the house at night. We had two large dogs and a small house dog that had come with us from Kentucky. One cold winter night we heard the big dogs barking furiously, and we knew there were wolves in the neighborhood. My father sprang from the bed, put on his shoes and trousers, and ran outdoors. The little house dog followed at his heels and yelped pitiously. Outside the sheep were huddled in the corner of the lot nearest the house, while a gaunt, big wolf was circling about trying to get past the dogs and at the sheep. On seeing my father the wolf started for the woods, the two big dogs in pursuit, but afraid to seize him. Now one of the dogs was a swiftrunning hound that could outrun any wolf. But once a wolf had gashed him with his teeth and the hound would never thereafter take hold of a wolf, although he would run after wolves, circle around them and try to bring them at bay. But the little house dog was afraid of wolves, not only for himself, but for my father. He was afraid my father would get too close to the wolves on this occasion and so he ran in front of him and tried to stop him. He got in my father's way and finally seized him by the trousers leg and tried to hold him. This exasperated my father, who was trying to catch up with the dogs that had nearly stopped the wolf. Finally, kicking the small dog loose he ran on, but the wolves had got then into the timber and could not be found. Returning, he found that the small house dog had leaped up on a shed and then climbed up to the very comb of the house and stood there trembling in the moonlight. We had many a laugh afterward as we recalled the fact-Indianapolis News. WHEN A REINDEER'S ANGRY. We were forced to wait three days after it had stopped snowing for a crust to form, so that we could travel again. It was with many misgivings that we began the last half of the journey, since the snow was now very deep and the danger of our sinking into drifts was great. To add to our general feeling of fear the reindeer behaved very badly and were exceedingly unruly. The wind had moderated somewhat, but it was still intensely cold. We had traveled half the day without any serious mishap, and were beginning to forget our fears at starting out, when we sped merrily down a mountain side, singing and helloling at the top of our voices, and ran into a gulch- and stuck there. The song stopped in our throats, and we sprang to our feet to sink waist deep in the drifts that had entrapped us. Every movement of our bodies sank us deeper in the snowdrifts, and the infuriated reindeer, finding themselves caught in the banked-up snow almost to their haunches, turned upon us and would have pawed us to death but for the forethought of Oosilik, who, seeing our danger, sprang forward and, hoisting the overturned pulks in his strong arms, brought them down over our heads and shoulders and pinned us out of sight in the snow. We heard the hoofs of Uncle Ben beating of the pulk's side as he pawed up the snow in his efforts to get at us, and if we had not held to the straps and had not kept the pulk over us he would have tossed it into the air with one sweep of his horns, and would still have had his bout with us, in which case we should have been helpless and completely at his mercy. For the first time we had occasion to see how fierce an angry reindeer can be. When he was convinced that he could not reach us, Uncle Ben turned upon Oosilik, and we heard the Eskimo shouting and clubbing the deer as he ran in and out of the pulks in a swift circuit, pursued by the bellowing reindeer. We spent an exciting half hour under the pulks, with the hoofs of the deer rattling like hail on the frozen boards, and then the unusual commotion ceased all at once, for the reindeer had found a lichen bed. In a fiffy they were pawing up the snow in their hurry to get at the succulent moss, and we were forgotten. Amalik and Oosilik lifted the pulks from our heads and dig us out of the snow and set us on our feet. By the time the reindeer had eaten themselves into a passable humor Amalik; and Oosilik led them back to the pulks. We had four hours of traveling before we came in sight of the corral that had sent us the reindeer from Eaton Station. As soon as the deer scented the well-known corral they quickened their strides, so that we reached the station before it was quite dark, and crawled from the sleds with a deep feeling of relief, glad beyond measure to be at home after the perils of our protracted journey.

The first difficulty in smuggling may be encountered at the diamond markets of Europe. In Paris, for instance, the United States Government has four agents whose duty is to keep the United States customs officials in touch with the purchases of stones by residents of the United States. If John Jones of New York is visiting Paris and has bought a fine diamond or more from a Paris dealer and returning to the New York port of entry, without declaring such stones, a question is certain to be asked of him. The Paris dealer, in accordance with the custom of the trade, has taken the name and address of the purchaser, a description of the stone, its color, its weight, and, perhaps, a memorandum of a possible peculiarity. Yet there are European diamond dealers who do not recognize the justice of protective tariffs, or even tariffs for revenue, and some of these refuse to recognize American agents. But considering that the would-be smuggler makes his successful purchases in the European markets and starts home with them. In the first place he has had the expenses of the trip across. Going over he may have gone in the second cabin of a steamer, but coming back it will be to his advantage in every way to return in the first cabin. Thus, his expenses, even if he lives in New York or Boston, will have been at least $200, while they might as easily have been $500 for the round trip. The time of the trip will be scarcely less than a month, which, for a man of average ability in a clerical position, will mean $100 at least. The interest on the money primarily invested in the stones will need to be considered, to say nothing of the element of risk—New York News. WISE WORDS.

The Traveling Man's Mistake 'According to Luther Hickman, State Superintendent of Building and Loan Associations, the people of his home town, Warrensburg, travel extensively. Yesterday morning a party of them boarded a train to come to Kansas City to hear grand opera. "The most of the grips," said Mr. Hickman, who was on the train, "were plastered with hotel stickers from many parts of the world. A travelling man who saw the stickers took the members of the party to be grand opera singers. 'Say,' he said to me, 'how does it happen that this troupe is getting on at this town?' 'They sang here last night,' I replied. 'That's Scotti, the baritone. Ask him how he likes Warrensburg.' I added, pointing to a big man. The travelling man approached the fellow I pointed out and asked: 'Mr. Scotti, how does it come that you folk stop at Warrensburg?' 'Why, that is where we live,' repiled the man, who was a Warrensburg merchant. The traveling man rode the rest of the way to Kansas City in the smoker.'—Kansas City Times. A Lost Moroccan Manufacture. In an act dated Rouen, October 1, 1570, certain merchants agree to freight a vessel. Le Samson, with white cloth and other goods for Santa Cruz de Agadhril, in Morocco. The ship was returned home laden with sugar, which at that time was grown near Tarudant. Sugar is not now grown in South Morocco, and thirty years ago a consul told me (and consuls are most trustworthy men) that it was little known. So much so that a Berber from a distant douar, having picked up a piece near Mogador, took it home, and having boiled it drank the juice, exalming, "O, father of the sweet! Thon must be sweet; even thy soup is sweet as oranges!"—R. B. Cunningham Graham, in the Saturday Review, The Savannah Tribune Saturpay. JUNE 10, 1905. trip to Augusta this week. Mias-Lottie M.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Made Her Well. It is with great pleasure we publish the following letters, as they convincingly prove the claim we have so many times made in our columns that Mrs. Mrs. Mary Dimmick Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass., is fully qualified to give helpful advice to sick women. Read Mrs. Dimmick's letters. Her first letter: Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "I have been a sufferer for the past eight years with a trouble which first originated from painful menstruation—the pains were excruciating, with inflammation and ulceration of the womb. The doctor says I must not want to submit to an operation if I can possibly avoid it. Please help me."—Mary Mary Dimmick, Washington, D.C. Her second letter; Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "You will remember my condition when I last wrote you, and that the doctor said I must have an operation or I could not live. I received your kind letter and followed your advice and I will always stay well. As my case was so serious my miracle that I am curled. I know that I owe not only my health but my life to Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and to your advice. I can walk miles without an ache or pain and I will always stay well. I would read this letter and realize what you can do for them."—Mary Mary Dimmick, 59th and East Capitol Streets, Washington, D.C. How easy it was for Mrs. Dimmick to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and how little it cost her—a two-cent stamp. Yet how valuable the reply! As Mrs. Dimmick says—it saved her life. Mrs. Pinkham has on file thousands of just such letters as the above, and offers niling women helpful advice.

BUSINESS COLLEGE, Macon, Ga. His First Live One. "During one of my trips through Europe," says Charles Hawtrey, "I found myself in a small village with no razors. They had been packed in my handbag, which I had left at the hotel where I had stayed the day before. There was no barber shop in the place and I was in a quandary as to how I might get shaved. The imkeeper told me that there was a man in the village who occasionally shaved people, and I determined to risk a cut or two and send for him. The amateur barber arrived and after a little healtitation he said to me: "Will you please, sir, lie down flat on your back while I shave you, sir?" "Thinking that it was probably the custom of the country, I stretched out comfortably on my back and nearly went to sleep while the fellow shaved me, so light was his touch. When he had finished I said: "I am curious to know why you asked me to lie down to be shaved?" "Because, sir, was his ingenious reply, 'I never before shaved a live man.' "I may add that I sent for no more amateur barbers to shave me during my trip.'"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. India's cigarette trade has increased 90 per cent in four years. FEED YOU MONEY. Feed Your Brain, and It Will Feed You Money and Fame. "Ever since boyhood I have been especially fond of meats, and I am convinced I ate too rapidly, and failed to mastache my food properly. "The result was that I found myself, a few years ago, afflicted with alliments of the stomach and kidneys, which interfered seriously with my business. "At last I took the advice of friends and began to eat Grape-Nuts instead of the heavy meats, etc., that had constituted my former diet. "I found that I was at once benefited by the change, that I was soon relieved from the heart-burned the indigestion that used to follow my meals, that the pain in my back from my kidney affliction had ceased, showing that those organs had been healed, and that my nerves, which used to be unsteady, and my brain, which was slow and lethargic from a heavy diet of meats and greasy foods, had, not in a moment, but gradually, and none the less surely, been restored to normal efficiency. Now every nerve is steady and my brain and thinking faculties are quicker and more acute than for years past. "After my old style breakfasts I used to suffer during the forenoon from a feeling of weakness which hindered me seriously in my work, but since I have begun to use Grape-Nuts food I can work till dinner time with all ease and comfort."

United States System of Lighting Military Post Pronounced Gratifyingly Successful-Six and One-Half Miles of Malas—Sixty-Five Street Lights. Chickamauga Park, Ga., May 31. The United States Government has here in operation one of the largest acetylene gas plants in the world. The military post at the entrance of the historical Chickamauga outtield, where thirty thousand Union and Confederate soldiers were lost in the memorable battle of September 19 and 20, 1863, contains about one hundred buildings, the seventy-five principal ones of which are lighted with acetylene. To accomplish this six and one-half miles of mains and two miles of service pipes are in use, while sixty-five street lamps brilliantly illuminate the avenues of the post. In 1903 the War Department installed a test acetylene plant at Fort Meyer, Virginia. The results were so gratifying and the superiority of the illuminant so evident that the Government, March 20, 1901, placed the contract for the Chickamauga plant, in which every citizen of the United States should have his pro rata of pride. But the Government has not confined its acceptance of acetylene to this military post. Since becoming satisfied of the efficiency, superiority and economical advantages of this particular illuminant, the United States has installed a number of plants in Indian schools and other Government institutions. Acetylene gas is one of the simplest as well as the most perfect of artificial lights. It is made by the contact of water and carbide (a manufactured product for sale at a nominal price), is absolutely safe and gives a beautiful white light soothing to the eyes and nerves. It can be produced anywhere—in the farm home, the village store, the town hall, the church—and is so easily maintained as to be practical for all classes. It is a matter for national congratulation that in beautifying so historic a spot as Chlekamanga, nothing but the best, including the lighting system, has been deemed good enough for the American people.

ULCERS FORTHIRTY YEARS Painful Eruptions From Knees to Feet Somed Incurable—Cuticura Ends Misery. Another of those remarkable cures by Cuticura, after doctors and all else had failed, is testified to by Mr. M. C. Moss, Gainesville, Texas, in the following letter: "For over thirty years I suffered from painful ulcers and an eruption from my knees to feet, and could find neither doctors nor medicine to help me, until I used Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills, which cured me in six months. They helped me the very first time I used them, and I am glad to write this so that others suffering as I did may be saved from misery." Early Rising No Longer Wise? Prof. J. A. March, of Northwestern University expresses the view that such proverbs as "early to bed and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise," are out of date in the 20th century. Formerly, he points out, when the problem of satisfactory artificial lighting had not been solved, the night did not lend itself readily to either work or recreation. "The scholars of former centuries must study by sunlight or not study at all. Whatever hours were wasted in sleep in the morning could not be made good in the evening, except at the greatest disadvantage. The words of Jesus, 'The night cometh when no man can work,' had for His hearers literal meaning, but for us they are only figurative," says Prof. March. People have turned their whole day around now. Many eat their heaviest meal at the end of the work-day. This interferes with the rule of "early to bed." On the other hand the man who rises very early is apt to wasto time waiting for the rest of the world to warm up. The eyes are weak and relaxed on rising, the stomach is empty, and especially study is at this time injurious to the health, he adds. Visitor--Doesn't it cost a great deal to live in a city like this? Haggard Dyspeptic --I suppose I does. My doctors never have allowed me to live here. I merely exist here.-Chicago Tribune. 4 Plantation Chill Cure is Guaranteed FORESTS DUE TO THE FOGS. Peculiar Conditions Found to Exist in the Congo Valley. A peculiar climatic feature exists in the southern part of the Congo valley for 10 degrees south of the equator. The rivers and lakes are found to be bordered with a dense vegetation, which extends out from the water a distance proportioned to the extent of the water surface. Adjacent hills and mountains are often covered with dense vegetation on one side and are bare on the other. Beyond this bordering vegetation there are plains, almost treeless or with small scrub growth and thin grass. The explanation is given as follows: From May to October there is a dry season, with hot days and fairly cool nights (often 50 degrees Fahrenheit). The evaporation of the daytime is followed by condensation into fog at night. This fog moistens the country adjacent to the water surfaces and causes a luxuriant growth of vegetation. The morning winds blow the fog against the exposed sides of hills and mountains and up the valleys of tributary streams. Wherever the fog is not carried the country is dry. The natives reflect this characteristic of their hills by shaving off their hair from one side of their heads. Dense forests are found where the fogs prevail, while out of range of this moisture there is only a sparse vegetation. Wealthy Men In Colorado. David Moffatt, of Denver, is the wealthiest man in Colorado, which outranks all other States in per-capita wealth. Colorado has the further distinction that most of its vast fortunes were made within its boundaries, not alone in mining, but in the cattle industry, in reality speculation, in fruit, sugar-beet culture, potato farming and in manufacturing and other mercantile pursuits.

All railroad men qualified to speak on the subject in a responsible way are likely to agree with President Samuel Spencer, of the Southern Railway, when he says: "There is no division of opinion as to the desirability of stopping all secret or unjustly discriminatory devices and practices of whatsoever character." Mr. Spencer, in speaking of "unjustly discriminatory" rates and devices, makes a distinction which is at once apparent to common sense. There may be discrimination in freight rates which is just, reasonable and imperatively required by the complex commercial and geographical conditions with which expertate makers have to deal. To abolish such open and honest discrimination might paralyze the industries of cities, States, and whole sections of our national territory. This distinction between just and unjust discrimination is clearly recognized in the conclusions of the International Railway Congress, published yesterday: "Tariffs should be based on commercial principles, taking into account the special condition upon the commercial value of the enterprise, the commercial reservation that rates shall be charged without arbitrary discrimination to all shippers alike under like conditions, the making of mates should as far as possible have all the clastically necessary to permit the development of traffic and to produce the greatest results to the public and to the railroads themselves." The present proposal is, as Mr. Walker D. Hines, of Louisville, showed in his remarkable testimony the other day before the Senate Committee at Washington, to crystallize flexible and justly discriminatory rates into fixed Government rates which cannot be changed except by the intervention of some Government tribunal, and by this very process to increase "the temptation to depart from the published rate and the lawful rate in order to meet some overpowering and urgent commercial condition."—New York Surf.
