Known, company appeared at the opera house A Washington dispatch says: Judge Jim Griggs of Georgia was Tuesday evening unanimously elected to the chairmanship of the democratic con- gressfonal campaign committee, and upon his shoulders is placed the se- sponsibility for the conduct of the democratic campaign for the capture sof the next house’ of represenfatives. Charles A. Edwards, former secretary of the committee, was elected. Ail other candidates for the chairmanship withdrew from the contest several days ago upon the assurance that Judge Griggs would accept the honor aind responsibility. —* ‘The committee was in session about an hour perfecting plans for the or- ganization of the work for the cam- paign. ‘This election was unsought by Judge Griggs. The fact is that wher it was first sugested that he serve again as chairman he positively de- sclined. But his fellow-democrats in the house were so insistent that be finally consented. The feeling is very strong among democrats in Washington that they have an excellent chance of carrying the house at this fall's election even in the fact of the overwhelming m3- Jorit¥ "the republicans now have, This feeling is by no means confined to democrats. The republican Icaders ac- knowledge that a democratic victory is a possibility, to say the Teast of it. With this outlook, therefore, demo- cratic members of the house have been insisting that the chairmanship ‘of the campaign committee should n&% be merely a matter of personal favorit- ism, but that the man best” qualified for leadership should be chosen. ‘They regard Judge Griggs the man because of the experience he has had in this same position, In the campaign of 1902 the con- gressfoual committee, under the Jead- ership of Judge Griggs, put up a far better contest than seemed possible under the circumstances, and demo- erats have always belleved the party would have been victorious had it not been for the prominent part President Roosevelt took at just the crucial time in bringing about a settlement-of the coal strike. : Judge Griggs’ succeeded in getting together a veiy considerable cam- paign fund for that campaign, and the committee was in better shape than it has been at any time in re- eent years, While Judge Griggs is one of the most popular inen In congress, his selection to the chairmanship this year is due to the general bellef that his qualifications make him better fit- ted to carry on this campaign than is aay other man in the party, _Mr. Griggs made the following state- nient conc2rning his election: “There has-been much guessing of late as to the meaning of my election eas chalyman, This generous expres- sion of your confidence in me means nothing but that you want me {o con duet this campaign, and I consented to do it, My election means nothing but a fight all along the line for a democratic house of represéntatives. it bears no relations to the political fortuzes of any one or the succest af any faction. Let us every one turn in now and make the best fight in us until next November.” AUNT SUSAN SERIOUSLY ILL. Well _Knawn Women Suffragist Has Attack of Pneumionia. BMiss Susan B.

Lawyer Hamilton Comes Back from Retreat in Parls to Face the Music, “Discordant or Otherwise.’ Atdrew Hamilton returned to New York on Tuesday from Paris on the steamer Deutschland, on which ‘hd was registered under the-name of WW. Milton, Mr. Hamilton Was at the head of the legislative bureau of the New York Life Insurance company and had charge of the legislative work of sov- efat of the large companles. To obtain au accounting from bm of moneys al- leged to have been advanced to him vy the late John A. McCall as president of the New York Life, John C, McCall, secretary of the company, went to Paris recently. ‘The accounting wus asked for by the Fowler committea which is investigating the New -York Life affairs. Commenting on John A. McCall's death, Mr. Hamilton said he gave tho former president of the New York Life youchers for all expenditures, and that to any and all of these vouchers, Mr. McCall would have given a certiti- cate of indisputable character. He sald that he registered under the assumed name op the Duetschland in order to have his return voyage free from an- noyance. ‘He said: *What I suppose you want to know is why I have returned. Well, I heard something about eriminal proceedin3s and here I am; this signifies that though my health is far from rees- tablished, I'm ready to accept any chal- lenge implied by such proceedings. “As to what others have said and done during my absence—and I might allude to thdse who live in glass houses—I will say nothing.” “You have come back to face the musle,” he was asked. “Yes, discordant or otherwise.” READY TO INVADE CHINA. Senators Think General Staff is Run _ ning War Department. ‘The question of the enlargement of the medical department of the army occupled the major portion of the tinte of the senate Tuesday. During the discussion Mr. Hale sald that the general staff had prepared plaus for the invasion of China by an American army, but he added that he did oot mean to go into that subject, “for, with the secretary of state sit- ting on the lid, I do not believe we are likely to have war.” ‘The last statement brought Mr. Till man to his feet with the suggestion that “if the secretary'of state is sitting on the lid and the secretary of war {s trying to pry him off, it will go off because of the gréater avolrdupols of the head of the war department.” Without entering into the jest, Mr. Hale replied that he was willing to trnst the secretary of war in this mat. ter notwithstanding he had transmit- ted the recommendations of the staft. He added the statement that the staff was taking upon itself the respons!bil- Ity for the conduct of the war depart- ment, It was, he sald, the purpose of that organization to invade China. which would be a declaration of war. Mr. Hale, was replying to a question of Mr, Tillman, who asked how many troops had been sent to the Philippines with a view of thelr being sent to China, and Mr. Hale said: “I do not mow how many troops have been sent there, but I think several thou- sand. The purpose of the general staff is that they may be used if any emerg- ency either arises or can be made to invade China, which, of course, would be a declaration of war while con- gress is in session.” COMMITTEE VISITING SOUTH.

DYNAMITE PRISON Supposed Object of Yegg- men’s Visit to Atlanta.’ BOLD, BAD GANG NABBED iaclen Moyer of the Atlanta Federal Prison Thinks Pjat Was on Foot to Release Some of His Notorious Guests. The report leaked out from official sources at Atlanta Monday that tho nine alleged safe crackers arrested In the Cannon houso in that city several Gays ago composed a gang, or wero members of a gang, who Were In At- lanta for the purpose of dynamiting the United States penitentiary, in South Atlanta, for the purpose of Iib- crating certain members of this gang row confined in, the: institution, and members of other gangs who are serv- ing ‘sentences at this same prison for highway robbery and the holding up of trains in the west. The report has it that the men ar- rested are believed to have visited .the city principally for the purpose of ‘maljng a delivery fromthe federal prison of some of theli pals, and that they found out that other men were present for the purpose of freeing, by similar moans, several of the real bad men who are serving time for high- way and express robberies, The ro port has it that there 1s also at least one woman who has been alding in the work of making this delivery for the purpose of rescuing her husband, who Is now a prisoner. Warden Moyer, of the federal prison, when asked regarding the report, sald that he could not make any statement, although he admitted that one of his guards had been fired on a short time before the men were arrested, and had returned this fire, and that previ- ous to this another guard had fired on two men who were about the institu- tion shortly after midnight. The warden, when asked as to whether any preparationg had been made in the way of preventing such an attack, stated that every precaution had been taken for any such attempt, and that every possible arrangement had been taken to make the outside sentry service of the peiiitentiary so perfect as to make it cost the life of any unlnown man who tried to get within 200 yards of the prison at night or at any other’ time. ‘Warden Moyer also stated that Har- ry Swain, one of the nine men arrest- ed in the gang, had been liberated from the federal prison about Jan- vary 26; While serving his sentence he had tho reputation of being a good prisoner, so far as his conduct in the institution was concerned. It was afte? his. Nberation that an attempt was made to shoot Officer Lee, one of the ontside sentries on duty at the prison, and tbat this fire came from tho dark- ress beyond the big circle of electric are lamps which light up the federal reservation for several hundred yards from the biilding where the prisoners are confined. “ Warden Moyer also stated that it was believed that there were two pris- oners now in the institution who be- longed to this same gang, some of the members of which were arrested at the Cannon house. ‘As to the inmates In the federal prison, it 1s known that they Include members of some of the most noted gangs which were for years the terror of the western country. ‘As the United States pentten- tiary is built along the most scientific lines for the prevention of any escape, {t is belteved that tho intention of the gang was to blow up some portion of the big coll, block with nitroglycerine or gan cotton, and take chances on Uberating the prisoners they were af- ter, even if the explesion necessitated the Killlng of some of the prisoners of the institution, as well as the guards and officiais on duty, and those who sleep ix the prison while off duty. TELEGRAPHERS MAY GO OUT. Strike Threatened on Southern Un- less Demands Are Met. President Perham of the Order of Railway Telegraphers of the United States and Canada announced Tues- day night that unless the wage scale submitted to the Southern Rallway officials is accepted, 1,265 telegraph operators and agents out of 1,573 em- ployed by the road, will be called out, “The demands,” he sald, “are for a minimum Seale for operators and agents of $50 per month and a max! mum of $85 a month, The scale in effect at present is $30 and $25.3 month. CIVIL SERVICE BY FORCE Atlanta Pollee Board Creates Sensa tion by Overriding City Attorney ‘and General Council. ‘The city of Atlanta may have two complete rolice departments gt no distant day, and unless all signs fall there will be a row over the police force such as will make all previous differences that have existed between board members sink into insignifi- cance. With a suddenness and quietness that took all by surprise,.the police board met Monday morning and de- clared civil service in effect. After accepting the resignations of the pollcemen who had decided to re sign about three or four months ago, when civil service was first talked of, the six members re-elected the officers fust as they had stood. The fire bell rang a riot call, the membérs of the force assembled at the barracks and were all sworn in by Chairman Nun- nally. ‘The important question is: Will the action of the six members stand? The ‘city attgrney has declared that such action could not be legal; a majority of the council, {t is sald, have agreed ‘with the elty attorney. | ‘There is to be a fight—a legal and a political fight—such as Atlanta has ‘Rot been a party to for many years, and which will, with all its record for turbulént times,’ the pollee board has rever before encountered. City Attorney Mayson, when inform- ed of tho action of the police board in undertaking to apply civil service to a portion of the police force, reaffirmed his opinion that civil service could not be put into ef- fect in the department prior to April, 1907, if any substantial number -of men declined to resign. a “$ cannot add anything to my opin- fon whiclt has been given, repeatedly,” said Mr. Maysqn. “That opinion. Is that under the -charter amendment pessed by the legislature civil serv- ice could cnly be put {nto effect in the police department before April, 1907, by the chiet, officers and men of the department resigning and being reelected on a civil service basis. J have held that the refusal of anysub- stantial number of men to resign would make it impossible to put clvil Service into effect prior to April, 1907. ‘This opinion was upheld by clty coun- epi the ordinance adopted by it at it’ meeting last week when the coun- cil struck out the clause in the ordi- nance which sought to apply clvil ser: vice to the present force. My opinion Is the same now as it has“@lways been and there is nothing else to say.” MERIDIAN WILL ACCERT AID. Suffering in Cyclone Swept bistrict + More Than Expected. No additional bodies had been re covered up to Monday night from the ruins of the buildings wrecked by the tornado, in Meridian, Miss., but hua dreds of men were still at worl searching for missing persons, Th? suffering as been found to be greater among the poorer people than had been at first supposed. Several thou send carpenters and others went 30 work Monday morning, rebuilding aitd repalring the destroyed districts, Ad ditional convicts have been requested from Governor Vardaman to ‘ald in the work of clearing away the debris. ‘The general relief committeo has finally resolved to accept any contrl- butions from whatever-source, the de- yelopments being such that ald will of necessity be required. Several thovsand dollars’ were received from outside sources Monday morning and added to the general relief fund. Num- erous additional injured have been dis covered, but none are expected to die. Eighteen bodies have been taken to the morgue so far, but others are be Meved to be buried in the ruins. Two bodies wore shipped out of town, mak- ing a total of twenty. It is believed that the dedth Ist will now exceed twenty-five. ‘The work of gangs of convicts both from the state farm at Rankin, and from the city prisons, 93 well as thow sends of citizens, in clearing away the debris of the tornado, continues with: out interruption, a cordon of soldiers being drawn around the places where the work Is going on. .

It places the damage at $5,0007000. These reports have not been confirmed by the officers of the steamer Mariposa, which brought the news of the dis- aster from Papelti, Island of . Tahiti. A dispatch from Hapeitl says: The most destructive cyclone ever experl- enced in the Society and Tuamotu Islands occurréd on February 7 and 8 The damage in Tahiti is estimatea at $1,000,000, and presumably a similar | amount of property was destroyed on ‘the Tuamotu Islands, . ‘The city of Papelti was inundated, and about seventy-five buildings ¢e- stroyed, including the American con- sulate and the French government building. The shipping in the harbor of Papeltl escaped injury, owing to the direction of the wind, but fears are entertained for vessels which were cruising near the Tuamotu Islands. aged, on the Island of Tahiti, Bread fruit, banana, cocoanut and plantain trees were blown down in great mim- bers, which will result in hardships to the natives and materially affects commerce during the next two or three years. The French gunboat Zeelee has gone to the Tuamotu Islands with supplies of food and fresh water. The British consul has appealed to his government for aid for 500 British sub- fects. Some Americans have sustain- ed heavy losses and probably there qill be a few instances of utter destl- tution, The Americans are hopeful of securing help from the Untted States. Money and food is required. - Thé cyclone or hurricahe, reached the velocity of 120 miles an hour. It struck the islands about midnight on February 7, and continued until about 4 o'clock on: the next afternoon, The ‘island of Anaa,-Tuamotu group, 1s be- Heved to have been the center of the storm. - GEN.

Tho ‘prisoner was recommended to the mer- cy of the court. Hasty was tried for the murder of Bfilan Bennett and Ab- bott Davidson, members of the “Noth- ing But Money” company. The killimg of Bennett and David- son occurred on the morning of De- cember 15 last in the Piedmont hotel at Gaffney, S. C. of which George Hasty was proprietor.

AN EDITOR’S ARPEAL Re, RR ee a a Lost Six-Year Old Boy. It the editor of every paper in the central west will republish these lines there is no question but what Dr. S. L. Byers of Seeleyvilie, Ind., will re- ecver his little son who’ was stolen from his home one year ago last May. Dr. Byers has spent his entire re- sources in search for his child and ‘unless the big hearted members of ‘the press come to his assistance his son will probably grow up an outlaw and an ollteast. It fs believed that if this article is reprinted In the news- papers it will uncover the lost boy's concealment and return him to his distracted parents. "In doing this the profession of fournalism will be fuldll- ‘ing one of its highest destinies. ‘There is a reward of-$500 awalting atly information that will lead to the boy’s recovery. No guestions will be asked and if the abductor himeelf would deliver the boy to his parents he would not be molested. The be reaved parents are heartbroken with grief end want only their child. ‘This appeal was projected originally by a publisher who saw Dr. Byers only once, has no personal interest in his quest other than the bond of sym patby that makes the world akin, and is inspired, from the bellef that the lost boy can only be found through the united effort of the country press of which he is proud to be a member. Following is a description of the boy: Richmond Byers, if allve, was 6 years old last July, Is of ght complex- jon, has gray eyes, left eye noticibly crossed, has a sinall V-shaped nick in, the edge of the left ear, has a sharp chin and a narrow, projecting fore- head, He Is rather small for his age, and is ttnusually bright and Intelligent, talking after the manner of a boy much older.

It is safe to say that Sa- vannah's 35,000 colored people will greet him with 40 ovation and that he should havea crowded house on the wight when he delivers his famous lecture on Jolin Brown. “The boyhood days of this distinguished Negro were spent in New England—that section of the country. where throbs the very heart of our national life alongall lives of progress, achievement and advance- ment, New England, the ‘*‘cradle of liberty.” from the very beginning of sour country’s history has always . led other sections of our country in maintaining the highest ideals of liberty, freedom, — and love of justice {tis in such atmosphere young DuBois grew up ; it was but nat- ural for him to posse s these rugged qualities of independence, liberty, free- dom and justice. Besides these things, knowing ‘the therough training which New England offers her children in edu- cational lines, this child and youth received a foundation in the educational field which ‘was so well ‘rooted and grounded” as to stand any and all subsequent college and university training. [Having finished very creditably the high school of Great Bar- rington, Mass., this lad with his ideals of lifeas were in vogue in New England, was sent south where he entered Fisk University and from which he later grad- uated, His stay at Fisk placed him in a position to get an insight into the life of the south and for this reason was very valuable to him. Having graduated from Fisk, he attended Harvard Univer- sity where he made such a record that ont of a class of 28 students, he was chosen as one of the'six speakers for comimence- ment esercises. Buthe was not to stop here, though he had 2 very good insight into the-northern lifeyas a New Englund lad ; thoughhe had & very good insigh into the Ife in the south, as a student at Fisk ; though he received a li'eral edut cation and met students from all parts f- ihe world? as a student at Harsard, he was not to stop here ; but’ sailed.to Europe where he spent afew years in study ang ravel and to-day, he can talk with as much “glib” about the beautitul sceneries, andscapes, cathedrals, places of interest, stc., of the different countries of Europe, s Savannah boy can talk about the “fountain in Forsyth Park, Savannah, Georgia.” Having returned to this country he has jecturgd to audiences in every part an yas always received the highest_ praises. While he is a good speaker itis fot along he speaking line that he is accounted a sreat Negro, but itis his writings which jave given him prominence, Even the very bitterest enemines to the race s Tom Dixdn, Jr., as well as friends to the Negro race and literary critics ah ver nur country do admit that as a writer? Du- Bois’ equals are few. His master work rom literary point of view, ‘The Souls of he Black Folk,'’'has been pronounced by ' migy asthe best book written within the ust 25 years. As a standard literary york, this book will stand the test of ages. svery Negro boy and girl, woman and nan should read this beautiful work, Jesides the “Souls of the [ack Folk,” )r.

March §, 1900, To the Editor Tue Txipuxe :—Please allow me space in your paper to publish a letter “To Young Converts” from Rev. James Wharton, the English Evangelist, who recently conducted with great blessiog revival services at our charch, ‘This letter was written by request for for the converts of our church, but'l feel that all those who were converted under his preaching, both those ir. the different schools and those who have joined other churches should also have the advantage ‘of these helpful suggestions for the Legin- ning of their Christian life, Fraternally Yours, W. L. Casit, Pastor First Congregational Church, Savaxsait, Ga, Fes, 16, 1908, Dear Young Converts : Now that the mission is over, L want to offer toyou a few wonds of advice und warning which I hope may be profitable to you for days if not years to come? First, Never go back on the decision you have mide for Christ when you gave yourself to Him, and remember that you are not now your own, you be- long to Him, who has bought’ is with the price, even His own blood. We are His by right and by title Secondly. Ifas Christian you should mace a slip in your daily Ine either in thought, word or deed, at once }ift up your heart to Him wherever you may be and confess it to God. remembering hat He has said, if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us of mur sins, to cleanse us from ull unright- 5 -ousness, Thirdly. Read the word of God, a sortion every day however little it may’ be.” To a hungry man, a swail piece of bread is better than none. Your soul needs feeding as much as your body and ‘the Bibleis the food for it, by this I mean you will get the mind of God con: cerning you, what he wants you to do and not’todo. ‘The experience of all Bible readers is that the more they real ofit, the greater the desire is to read more Itix thé most interesting hook in the world, I know several who carry it in their pockets and every spare mo- ment they have they read a little, It is not uncommon thing to see Christians in Evrope reading their Bible in the train, as they go to business in the early morning. Itisa book of rules to us, what a chart and compass is to the tine. Get it, read it and Jetit mould and fashion your life and every day you ‘will become more like Jesus, which ought to be our object in life. | Fourthly, Keep clean of questionable pisces of ainusement for generally thes ead to more ungodliness and sin, You ‘have something more than the husk to ‘feed on now, you have the bread of tife. Don't Tet ithe said of you as was snud of Israel of old. He feedeth on ashes, 2 deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul. le ever watehful for the enemy of your souls for hes constantly on the alert to wreck and ruin your Christian character and Dlight yotir virtuous life, You can. al- ways detect him by watchword, “There is no harm init” Fifthly, Let your light shine brightly for darkness is thickening fast around ou. Keep your Tamps trinnued and burning Keep your soul in the fear and Jove of Goil by prayer and commun jon, get into close touch with Jesus aud keep friends with Him, then you'll find it the greatest pleasure of yaur life to please Him and constantly divell in. the sunshine of His love, having Mis smile upon you every step on your pilérim Journey and :it the end of it may it be Said of you ay well as of all of us that we were kept by His power, Yours in Hisserviee, 2 Evangelist Jaues Wirantox., **Nuf-Sed”? Exposed. Eatlor of TRIBUNE: In the issue of your paperof Saturday March 3rd, there appeared an acticle over the signature of “Nof Sed," io which the writer afte many spulterings about “registration,” hypocrites and farces proceeds ta hold. up to publ c ridicule two physicions whom he is pleased to term, Drs, “Long Boy” and “Pee Wee.” ‘The former, he says stands higher—in the air—than any other colored doctor in town ; and the latter lower—ia the air than any doctor in town, ‘The undersigned being the tallest and shortest doctors in the city feel justified in concluding that the vile pen af this slinderer is aimed at them. On no ~other hypothesis than his description as to heigth do we base our casclusion. After an investigation we learned that the*author of the slanderous article as well as of others that have appeared over the signature of “Nuf-Sed," is Mr. E,W. Houstoun, What this’ callow youth may say about registration and the duties of cittzens ia general is a matter cf no concern to us Lut When he singles us ou’, 4ppiies odious epithets, makes false charges of deriliction of duty aud im putes to us a failure to pay our poll tax, we think it is time to urcover him and make known to the public who this self. appointed monitor aad pelitical wh'p of the community is who so recklessly ase sails its citizens. We have always paid our poll tax and have registered in focmer years, We ex- pect to register thiyear a8 spon as it suits our time and ebnvenience. Now sonny take our advice and wlen the nest zeal of the reformer comes upon you bexin your reformation at home where you will at least have the advantaye of greater familiarity with the subject. +" Tallest Physician, Smailees Phveiian EM Woodville Dotc.

PRICE, 25 Cts TO CURE THE GRIP IN ONE DAY ANLCDIDINE TWO OPEN LETTERS Mrs. Mary Dimmick of Washington tells How Lydia E. 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 periods—the pains were exacerbating, with inflammation and ulceration of the female organs. The doctor says I must have an operation or I cannot live. I do not want to submit to an operation if I can possibly avoid it. Please help me."—Mrs. 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 very carefully and am now entirely well. As my case was so serious it seems a miracle that I am cured. I know that I owe not only my health but my life to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and to your advice. I can walk miles without an ache or a pain, and I wish every suffering woman would read this letter and realize what you can do for them."—Mrs. Mary Dimmick, 98th 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 was 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 alling women helpful advice. ANIMALS WERE ONCE TORTURED TO MAKE FLESH TENDER. Elephant Food and White Ants an African Offering—A. Salad Made of Tree Bark—Rattlesnake Said to Taste Like Chicken—Muskrat Are Liked, Too. In our own country, while there are no cities given to making a specialty of cookery and epicurean dishes like lark tongues and other great dishes of the Lucullan feasts in old Rome, yet there are two cities noted for a great variety of special dishes for food that cannot be obtained readily in any other section of the Union. These are Baltimore and New Orleans. Lunching with the Hon. William Pinkney. Whyte at the Belvidere, the topic turned upon the old-time Baltimore oyster roasts and how they were enjoyed, says a writer in the New Orleans Times-Democrat. First, a drink of hot Scotch whiskey, then the roast oysters, followed by a glass of old English ale. Mr. Whyte said the price of a drink of whiskey in the olden days was a "fip" (6 1-4 cents), and very fine mixed drinks a "levy" (12 1-2 cents). Just at present oyster roasts are the order of the day, and there is not a Saturday night or a Sunday afternoon that the shores of Patapsco are not ablaze with the fire of oyster roasters. There is the huge fire at the water's edge, the canoe or pungy-full of oysters riding at anchor, the hot coffee, the slaugh and the inevitable keg of beer, while all grow mellow under the influence of the seductive bivalve. What the clambake is to New York, the shad bake to Philadelphia, so is the oyster roast to Baltimore, and they'll swear that it goes ahead of all other affairs of like nature. Sir Charles Dillke, who was a member of the House of Commons, once said that his recollections of Baltimore were chiefly of a social and convivial character, that it was worth a trip across the Atlantic to enjoy the delicious terrapin served at the Maryland club, and the oysters which were so large that they remlaked him of Thackeray's remark when indulging, in a similar luxury, that it was "just like swallowing a baby." Man can and does eat almost anything; in drink his courage is still greater. Germany is eating horse. A ten-course dinner of Algerian lion was served by a Parisian Tartarian, who basely thought instead of shooting the game. Monkey is said to be excellent, with a faraway flavor of rabbit, but many diameters more savory. Still, monkey eating is cannibalism, if car ancestors really were artloreal in their habits. An English traveler and game bagger in Africa swore that baked elephant foot was a delicty dish to set before a king—not an African woolly monarch, but even Edward VII himself, who knows something of the refinements of artistic cookery and has an experienced palate. Dr. Livingstone, in speaking of a breakfast of elephant's foot cooked for him in native fashion and which he very much enjoyed, said: "It was a royal feast and I found it delicious." The natives of nearly all parts of Africa are exceedingly fond of white ants as a dish. On one occasion, while camping on the banks of the Zouga, Livingstone was visited by a chief, and as he was at dinner at the time, he gave him a piece of bread and some preserved apricots. The chief seemed to relish it very much, and Livingstone asked him if he had anything equal to that in his country. "Ah," said he, "did you ever taste white ants?" Livingstone assured him that he had never tried that delicacy. "Well, if you had," replied the chief, licking his mouth with pleasant memories, "you never could wish anything better." When the white ants cast off their colony of winged emigrants, a canopy is erected like an umbrella over the ant hill. As soon as ants fly against the roof they tumble down in a shower, and their wings instantly become detached from their bodies. They are then helpless, and are swept up in baskets to be fried, when they make a very palatable food. Another Englishman—why is it always an Englishman to whom these original and courageous tastes are attributed?—an Englishman averred that boa constrictor, properly cooked, was better than the best veal, being nearly all breast. And yet the boa constrictor has no mercy on the calf. This recalls some curious and cruel customs of our English forefathers, who killed animals by slow and terrifying processes, in order that their flesh should be made tender by muscular agony and mental distress. It is probable that the struggles of a creature slowly killed by torture soften its muscles. The flesh of a hunted hare is more tender than the flesh of a hare shot unawares. Bulls were baited with dogs, not so much for the barbarous pleasure of witnessing brutal conflicts as for the inteneration of the beef, which would have been less catable had the animals been killed quickly with knife and bludgeon. While bull baiting was still sanctioned in England as a whoidesome culinary process, our ancestors intensely pigs by whipping them to death, a treatment that produced the requisite bodily convulsions and mental distress in the dying animals. Hence it was usual with the old English to fly a hawk at barn-door poultry end "crammed birds." rave over a dozen snails serve in the shell, the dainty Japanese will quietly relish her wishinaku and bowl of chic-chic, and the practical German hausfrau surprises her husband with the juiciest of roast pork and pickled pigs' feet on the side. Goulash with plenty of paprika is the Hungarian's delight, while the dark-eyed daughters of Italy will not be happy unless they can offer their families a genuine feast, including salami sausages, olives and extra well cheesed spaghetti or risotto. A fragrant after-dinner cigarette, accompanied by a very small glass of vodka is the usual indulgence of the Russian woman after Thanksgiving dinner. A French woman in New York finds the greatest pleasure in cooking her husband a rabbit that has been exposed to the air until it takes on a certain gamy odor. To this delicacy she adds some cock's combs fried in sweet butter. On Christmas day she will scrve monsieur some real tripe or a dozen big vineyard snails. New Orleans imports snails from France in barrels, protected by wire netting to prevent this succulent article of diet from creeping out. These things would seem droll to an esthetic daimty, and perhaps to Lucullus, whose appetite craved humming bird tongues. All the world worships the regulation turkey—the ideal bird for Thanksgiving, Christmas or any other occasion, when stuffed with oysters or chestnuts; and when you have no chestnuts handy, you might substitute the "Life and Anecdotes" of Chauncey Depew. Philadelphia scrapple is eaten all over the world. It used to be made by the Pennsylvania farmers, but it is now made practically altogether the scrapple trust, which turns out thousands of pounds daily from the first frost till the spring thaw. This delectable stuff is made of pig's heads, livers, pork, sage, thyme and a dozen other ingredients. The meat is first boiled on the bone in vats as large as swimming pools. Then it is cut up into chunks the size of your fist, by rows of bare armed experts with selmitars. Then it is ground to a gray powder in steam power grinding machines. Henry Seelinger, a prominent loon-keeper and restaurateur in Norfolk, Va., eats muskrat, very much to the amusement and disgust of his aesthetic patrons. When Admiral Sigiscee's squadron was cruising in the Caribbean Sea, in 1904 and the spring of 1905, the officers of his flagship, the Newark, found that bark salad was not only edible, but was quite palatable. This remarkable food was made from the bark of a tropical tree, and much enjoyed by the natives along the coast. The rough or outer part is chipped off, and the inner portion chopped into fine slices and made into a salad dressed with oil, spices, etc. Shark fin is a popular dish with the Chinese and a few old schen. Goychee (shark's fin, fried or in soup) and bird's-nest soup are common items on a Chinese menu card. A dish made of the stomach of a reindeer, or seal, and mixed with seal oil, is the Esquimaux substitute for ice cream. During a six years' residence in the West a scientist made diligent study of snakes and their peculiarities. As an article of diet, he says, the blue racer, of all snakes, is the most delicate in flavor, as it is very cleanly in its habits and particular as to its food. The flesh of the rattler is also perfectly wholesome and toothsome, having a flavor, like the flesh of most snakes, like chicken. A CRUSADE BORN OF IGNORANCE. The Indianapolis Sentinel in a leading editorial, discusses the "patent" medicine crusade. "It is not altogether clear," says the Schitinel, "on what grounds the patent remedies are attacked, but nevertheless they are stormed and bombarded, raked and volleyed until it would seem if it were in editorial power to extinguish them, that they would be utterly annihilated. "Still they exist. Nor is the sale of the various medicines materially affected by these attacks. The truth is the people are skeptical of the motives which prompt the aggression. The remedies themselves have been tried, the most of them for years, and they have stood the test. The good they have wrought is without estimate. Lives have been saved by their use, and invalids, hopeless from sickness and disease, have been restored to fair health and vigor. "And they will continue to remain. All through the country, in the cities, the towns, the farm houses, one will find the old standard remedies. Perhaps they have been used for generations. It does not follow from the purchase of these medicines that those who use them are either imbeciles or fools. It is rather to be presumed that they are possessed of some degree of wisdom, that they know from experience that they have been benefitted by the use of them and prefer to continue to be benefitted by them to listening to the tinkling bell of some editorial cow who seeks to lead the herd astray. "Editorial denunciation that is born of malice, or ignorance, and is fostered by sensationalism is much more to be feared by the public and, for the public than all the proprietary medicines that have ever appeared on the market."

New Jersey has just found out how much it will cost to free the state of 90 percent of the mosquitoes, its most undesirable product. After exhaustive investigation, based upon actual surveys of the great mosquito breeding grounds in the salt marshes which fringe the state from upper Newark Bay down along the Atlantic coast and up the Delaware bay, it has been found that the work can be done for $315,550. The cost is based upon the results of work that has been done already in New Jersey and New York. John B. Smith, the state entomologist, has just published for the information of law makers and others, his findings in a pamphlet, which he calls "Mosquito Memoranda." Mr. Smith says that nine-tenths of all the mosquitoes in the state come from the salt marshes, which used to be thought valuable solely for the production of salt hay for the bedding of horses. He has also found that of the mosquitoes which afflict residents of shore resorts and the region of pines not far inland fully 95 percent are bred in these marshes. The one remedy to rid New Jersey of the evil reputation of being the greatest mosquito factory in the world is to abolish all salt marshes. A large part of the work can be done by simple ditching and draining. Some of the work can be accomplished only by filling up the marshes with the sand which can be found close at hand. Hundreds of square miles can be reclaimed for only a little more than $200,000. The most expensive part of the work lies along the southern half of the Jersey coast. In and around Newark bay and Staten Island a large amount of work has already been accomplished. The most expensive part of the work in all that region is at the mouth of the Raritan river and extending to the end of its salt marsh. The cost for freeing this territory from marshes is only $5000. In all the other parts of the northern belt only a few hundreds of dollars are needed in about a dozen neighborhoods. South of Barnegat the expense mounts u. The area along the main shore, south from Barnegat to the Pennsylvania railroad's bridge and west to Manahawkin, and including the islands along the shore, will require $18,000 for exterminating purposes. The meadow south from Tuckerton to Great Bay, one of the worst regions in the state, will require $16,000. - The area between Nacote Creek, Somers Cove, Little Bay and Great Bay, will require $15,000. All around the Cape May region appropriations of from $5000 to $10,000 will be required in a dozen places. On the Delaware bay side an appropriation of $20,000 is needed in the Port Norris region and $15,000 in the Salem and Cohansey creeks territory. Altogether money is asked to clean up the areas in 67 distinct bits of geographical territory.—New York Press. Tom's Apology. A California girl was telling of her trans-Atlantic experience. "I saw a good deal of English village life," she said, "and it was charmingly quiet. I stayed at a hall, one of the few halls left in England and often my hostess and I drove down into the village. "One day we happened to enter Tom Lilman's cottage while Tom was finishing his dinner by drinking up some rice-pudding out of a large bowl. "Oh, excuse me," said my hostess; 'don't disturb yourself, Tom, I'll come back when you are through." "Pray take a seat, ma'am," said the man. "I'm nearly done. You'll excuse me for not eatin' this rice puddin' with my knife, ma'am—but it's so sloppy." No Time for Sleep. A Doniphan County farmer who is known for working his men long hours recently hired an Irishman, says the Kansas City Journal. A day or so later the farmer said he was going to town to buy a new bed for Pat. "Yez needn't git extrageghant on me account," said Pat. "If it's jist the same to yez, yez can cut out buyin' a new bed and can thrade the ould war for a lanther." . TWO OF A KIND. A rockless young chauffeur of Kiel Was speeding his automobile.

"I had an eruption appear on my chest and body and extend upwards and downwards, so that my neck and face were all broken out; also my arms and the lower limbs as tar as the knees. I at first thought it was prickly heat. But soon scales or crusts formed where the breaking out was. Instead of going to a physician I purchased a complete treatment of the Cutieura Remedies, in which I had great faith, and all was satisfactory. A year or two later the eruption appeared again, cny a little lower, but before it had time to spread I procured another supply of the Cutieura Remedies, and continued their use until the cure was complete.

To Investigate Killing of Convict. Warden Jake Moore of the state penitentiary went to Macon under In- structions from the prison comms sion to Investigate the recent killing of the convict, Wade Berry, who was shot by G, W. Oxley, one of the guards. 3 ‘Phe coroner's verdict was one, of fustifiable homicide, witnesses testt- fying that Berry was making an at- tack upon Oxley with a piece of coal or rock at the time the fatal shots were fired. The prison commission Is determin- ed, however, to get at the bottom of the affair.
