VOL. XXI. GRIGGS AT HELM Georgian Heads Congressional Campaign Committee. WILL LEAD -DEMOCRATS Unanimously Elected at Committee Meeting in Washington, Though He Was Not a Candidate for A Washington dispatch says: Judge Jim Griggs of Georgia was Tuesday evening unanimously elected to the chairmanship of the democratic congressional campaign committee, and upon his shoulders is placed the responsibility for the conduct of the democratic campaign for the capture of the next house of represenfatives. Charles A. Edwards, former secretary of the committee, was elected. All other candidates for the chairmanship withdrew from the contest several days ago upon the assurance that Judge Griggs would accept the honor and responsibility. The committee was in session about an hour perfecting plans for the organization of the work for the campaign. This election was unsought by Judge Griggs. The fact is that when it was first suggested that he serve again as chairman he positively declined. But his fellow-democrats in the house were so insistent that he 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 majority the republicans now have. This feeling is by no means confined to democrats. The republican leaders acknowledge that a democratic victory is a possibility, to say the least of it. With this outlook, therefore, democratic members of the house have been instilling that the chairmanship of the campaign committee should not be merely a matter of personal favoritism, 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 congressional committee, under the leadership of Judge Griggs, put up a far better contest than seemed possible under the circumstances, and democrats have always believed 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 very considerable campaign fund for that campaign, and the committee was in better shape than it has been at any time in recent years. While Judgg Griggs is one of the most popular men in congress, his selection to the chairmanship this year is due to the general belief that his qualifications make him better fitted to carry on this campaign than is any other man in the party. Mr. Griggs made the following statement concerning his election: "There has been much guessing of late as to the meaning of my election as chairman. This generous expression of your confidence in me means nothing but that you want me to conduct this campaign, and I consented to do it. My election means nothing but a fight all along the line for a democratic house of representatives. It bears no relations to the political fortunes of any one or the success of any faction. Let us every one turn in now and make the best fight in us until next November." AUNT SUSAN SERIOUSLY ILL. Well Known Woman Suffragist Has Attack of Pneumonia. Miss Susan B. Anthony is seriously ill at her home in Rochester, N. Y., of pneumonia, which developed on her return from her recent visit to Washington. She is 86 years old. For a long time Miss Anthony has not been in robust health. WAS STILL HOLDING REINS. Bodies of Missing Boy and Mule Found in River. The body of Mose Bailey of Poorer together with that of a mule for which the boy had been sent were found in the Ogeeoeche river near Meidrim, Ga., Saturday night. The boy was holding on to the reins, and still had his foot in the stirrup. He had been dead several days. Sixteen days ago, the boy had been sent into Bryan county for the mule. A search and an inquiry were instituted, which resulted in finding the body. It is supposed that the boy rode the mule off the bridge in the dark. The Savannah Tribune. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MARCH 10, 1906. ANDY HAS RETURNED. Lawyer Hamilton Comes Back from Retreat in Paris to Face the Music, "Discordant or Otherwise." Andrew Hamilton returned to New York on Tuesday from Paris on the steamer Deutschland, on which he was registered under the name of W. 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 several of the large companies. To obtain an accounting from him of moneys alleged to have been advanced to him by the late John A. McCall as president of the New York Life, John C. McCalf, secretary of the company, went to Paris recently. The accounting was asked for by the Fowler committee which is investigating the New York Life affairs. Commenting on John A. McCall's death, Mr. Hamilton said he gave the former president of the New York Life vouchers for all expenditures, and that to any and all of these vouchers, Mr. McCall would have given a certificate of indisputable character. He said that he registered under the assumed name on the Duetschland in order to have his return voyage free from annoyance. He said: "What I suppose you want to know is why I have returned. Well, I heard something about criminal proceedings and here I am; this signifies that though my health is far from re-established, I'm ready to accept any challenge implied by such proceedings. "As to what others have said and done during my absence—and I might allude to those who live in glass houses—I will say nothing." "You have come back to face the music," he was asked. "Yes, discordant or otherwise." READY TO INVADE CHINA. Senators Think General Staff is Running War Department. The question of the enlargement of the medical department of the army occupied the major portion of the time of the senate Tuesday. During the discussion Mr. Hale said that the general staff had prepared plans for the invasion of China by an American army, but he added that he did not mean to go into that subject, "for, with the secretary of state sitting on the lid, I do not believe we are likely to have war." The last statement brought Mr. Tillman to his feet with the suggestion that "if the secretary of state is sitting on the lid and the secretary of war is trying to pry him off, it will go off because of the greater avoiddups of the head of the war department." Without entering into the jest, Mr. Hale replied that he was willing to trust the secretary of war in this matter notwithstanding he had transmitted the recommendations of the staff. He added the statement that the staff was taking upon itself the responsibility for the conduct of the war department. It was, he said, 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 their being sent to China, and Mr. Hale said: "I do not know how many troops have been sent there, but I think several thousand. The purpose of the general staff is that they may be used if any emergency either arises or can be made to invade China, which, of course, would be a declaration of war while congress is in session." COMMITTEE VISITING SOUTH. Will Investigate Condition of Rivers and Harbors in Four States. and Harbors in Four States. The special party of members of the house committees on rivers and harbors, and interstate and foreign commerce, which is to investigate rivers and harbors in Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi, left Washington Wednesday. The party consists of Representatives Hepburn, Mann, Adamson, Richardson (Ala.), Dovener, Bishop, Acheson, Alexander, Davidson, McLachlen, Lorimer, Jones (Wash.), Bede, Ellis, Lester, Sparkman, Ransdell, Burgess and Humphreys. SEEK TO OUST JUDGE DEUEL. May Lose His Job Because of Connection with Town Topics. Following the recent testimony about Town Topics in the Hapgood libel trial at New York, Justice Joseph M.-Deuel of the court of special sessions, has accepted service of papers in a suit instituted for his disbarment from his position as a justice. The specifications against Justice Deuel include that of conducting business other than that of a justice. DYNAMITE PRISON Supposed Object of Yeggmen's Visit to Atlanta. BOLD, BAD GANG NABBED Warden Moyer of the Atlanta Federal Prison Thinks Piot Was on Foot to Release Some of His Notorious Guests. The report leaked out from official sources at Atlanta Monday that the nine alleged safe crackers arrested in the Cannon house in that city several days ago composed a gang, or were members of a gang, who were in Atlanta for the purpose of dynamiting the United States penitentiary, in South Atlanta, for the purpose of liberating certain members of this gang now confined in the institution, and members of other gangs who are serving sentences at this same prison for highway robbery and the holding up of trains in the west. The report has it that the men arrested are believed to have visited the city principally for the purpose of making a delivery from the federal prison of some of their pals, and that they found out that other men were present for the purpose of freeing, by similar means, several of the real bad men who are serving time for highway and express robberies. The report has it that there is also at least one woman who has been aiding 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, said 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 previous to this another guard had fired on two men who were about the institution shortly after midnight. The warden, when asked as to whether any preparations 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 penitentiary so perfect as to make it cost the life of any unknown man who tried to get within 200 yards of the prison at night or at any other time. Warden Moyer also stated that Harry Swain, one of the nine men arrested in the gang, had been liberated from the federal prison about January 20: While serving his sentence he had the reputation of being a good prisoner, so far as his conduct in the institution was concerned. It was after his liberation that an attempt was made to shoot Officer Lee, one of the outside sentries on duty at the prison, and that this fire came from the darkness beyond the big circle of electric lamps which light up the federal reservation for several hundred yards from the building where the prisoners are confined. Warden Moyer also stated that it was believed that there were two prisoners now in the institution who belonged 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 is 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 penitentiary is built along the most scientific lines for the prevention of any escape, it is believed that the intention of the gang was to blow up some portion of the big cell, block with nitro-glycerine or gun cotton, and take chances on liberating the prisoners they were after, even if the explosion necessitated the killing of some of the prisoners of the institution, as well as the guards and officials on duty, and those who sleep in the prison while off duty. TELEGRAPHERS MAY GO OUT. Strike Threatened on Southern Unless Demands Are Met. President Perham of the Order of Railway Telegraphers of the United States and Canada announced Tuesday night that unless the wage scale submitted to the Southern Railway officials is accepted, 1,265 telegraph operators and agents out of 1,573 employed by the road, will be called out, "The demands," he said, "are for a minimum scale for operators and agents of $50 per month and a maximum of $85 a month. The scale in effect at present is $30 and $25 a month. CIVIL SERVICE BY FORCE Atlanta Police Board Creates Sensation by Overriding City Attorney and General Council. The city of Atlanta may have two complete police departments at 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 insignificance. With a suddenness and quietness that took all by surprise, the police board met Monday morning and declared civil service in effect. After accepting the resignations of the pollicemen who had decided to resign about three or four months ago, when civil service was first talked of, the six members re-elected the officers just as they had stood. The fire bell rang a riot call, the members of the force assembled at the barracks and were all sworn in by Chairman Nunnally. The important question is: Will the action of the six members stand? The city attorney has declared that such action could not be legal; a majority of the council, it is said, have agreed with the city attorney. There is to be a fight—a legal and a political fight—such as Atlanta has not been a party to for many years, and which will, with all its record for turbulent times, the police board has never before encountered. City Attorney Mayson, when informed of the action of the police board in undertaking to apply civil service to a portion of the police force, re-affirmed his opinion that civil service could not be put into effect in the department prior to April, 1907, if any substantial number of men declined to resign. "I cannot add anything to my opinion which has been given, repeatedly," said Mr. Mayson. "That opinion is that under the charter amendment passed by the legislature civil service could only be put into effect in the police department before April, 1907, by the chief, officers and men of the department resigning and being re-elected on a civil service basis. I have held that the refusal of any substantial number of men to resign would make it impossible to put civil service into effect prior to April, 1907. This opinion was upheld by city council in the ordinance adopted by it at its meeting last week when the council struck out the clause in the ordinance which sought to apply civil service to the present force. My opinion is the same now as it has always been and there is nothing else to say." MERIDIAN WILL ACCEPT AID. Suffering in Cyclone Swept District More Than Expected. No additional bodies had been recovered up to Monday night from the ruins of the buildings wrecked by the tornado, in Meridian, Miss., but hundreds of men were still at work searching for missing persons. The suffering has been found to be greater among the poorer people than had been at first supposed. Several thousand carpenters and others went to work Monday morning, rebuilding and repairing the destroyed districts. Additional convicts have been requested from Governor Vardaman to aid in the work of clearing away the debris. The general relief committee has finally resolved to accept any contributions from whatever-source, the developments being such that aid will of necessity be required. Several thousand dollars were received from outside sources Monday morning and added to the general relief fund. Numerous additional injured have been discovered, but none are expected to die. Eighteen bodies have been taken to the morgue so far, but others are believed to be buried in the ruins. Two bodies wore shipped out of town, making a total of twenty. It is believed that the death list will now exceed twenty-five. The work of gangs of convicts both from the state farm at Rankin, and from the city prisons, as well as thousands of citizens, in clearing away the debris of the tornado, continues without interruption, a cordon of soldiers being drawn around the places where the work is going on. Four Deaths May Result from Accident on Branch of Southern. A passenger train on the Ashboro division of the Southern railway was wrecked near High Point, N. C., Monday, two coaches and a box car being hurled down a steep embankment. About a score of persons were hurt. Conductor Burns, Captain Might of Greensboro, E. I. Rudd of Winston and Mail Clerk Frazier received the worst injuries. Later reports indicate that their death is not unexpected. TENTHOUSANDDEAD As Result of Awful Storm on South Pacific Islands. LARGE CITY INUNDATED Frightful Disaster Occurred in the Society and Tuamota Groups and Was Most Destructive Ever The San Francisco Evening Post says that 10,000 persons perished during the storm on Tahiti and adjacent islands, several of which, its account says, have disappeared. It places the damage at $5,000,000. These reports have not been confirmed by the officers of the steamer Mariposa, which brought the news of the disaster from Papeiti, Island of Tahiti. A dispatch from Hapeiti says: The most destructive cyclone ever experienced in the Society and Tuamotu Islands occurred on February 7 and 8. The damage in Tahiti is estimated at $1,000,000, and presumably a similar amount of property was destroyed on the Tuamotu Islands. The city of Papeli was inundated, and about seventy-five buildings destroyed, including the American consulate and the French government building. The shipping in the harbor of Papeli 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 numbers, 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 subjects. Some Americans have sustained heavy losses and probably there will be a few instances of utter destitution. The Americans are hopeful of securing help from the United States. Money and food is required. The cyclone or hurricane, 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, is believed to have been the center of the storm. Reaper After Long Service. Lieut. Gen. John M. Schofield, United States army, retired, died in St. Augustine, Fla., Sunday night. He was attacked with cerebral hemorrhage and quickly succumbed. His wife and young daughter were with him. He was 74 years of age. General Schofield was secretary of war during 1868-69, and his career was marked by a continuous service in the army from the time he entered West Point in 1849 until he retired September 29, 1895, with the rank of lieutenant general, the highest military honor then permitted by law of congress. His command of the army extended from 1888 to 1895. Since his retirement from the army he has made frequent visits to Washington, though he made it a practice each year to spend his winter in Florida and the summer in the east. GOVERNOR WITNESSED HANGING Negro Pays Penalty at Shreveport for Murder of White Girl. Charles Coleman, the negro who outraged and murdered Margaret Lear, near Shreveport, La., was legally executed in the parish jail. No exegetement attended the execution, public feeling having subsided since the conviction of Coleman. Governor Blanchard arrived during the morning, and shortly afterwards signed the death warrant. SEABOARD OFFICE BURNED. Headquarters, of Road at Portsmouth Wiped Out by Fire. The general office building of the Seaboard Air Line railway in Portsmouth, Va., was entirely destroyed, except the walls, by a fire, which started at 8:30 o'clock Sunday morning and while the monetary loss was only approximated at $25,000, there were many valuable records and official papers of the road destroyed. The building cost about $60,000, and the loss is estimated at one-half that amount, the walls being apparently intact. NO. 23. GEORGE HASTY FOUND GUILTY. Convicted of Murdering Two Actors. Jury Recommends Mercy. The jury in the Hasty case at Gaffney, S. C., returned a verdict of guilty at 6:15 o'clock Tuesday morning. The prisoner was recommended to the mercy of the court. Hasty was tried for the murder of Milan Bennett and Abbott Davidson, members of the "Nothing But Money" company. The killing of Bennett and Davidson occurred on the morning of December 15 last in the Pledmont hotel at Gaffney, S. C., of which George Hasty was proprietor. The theatrical company appeared at the opera house of Gaffney on the night of December 14, and after returning to the hotel Miss May Bishop and Miss Verne Sheridan, two actresses, complained to Davidson about the attempt of Hasty to enter their rooms. The following morning Davidson went to the proprietor to demand an apology. A fight ensued in which both actors were shot and killed. Hasty's plea was self-defense. At the trial Hasty answered to the joint indictment and pleaded not guilty. The jury took the case Monday night at 7 o'clock. Hasty was sentenced to the penitentiary for life, but it was announced that counsel would appeal to the supreme court. AN EDITOR'S ARPEAL To Brother Publishers in Behalf of a Lost Six-Year Old Boy. If the editor of every paper in the central west will republish these lines there is no question but what Dr. S. L. Byers of Seeleyville, Ind., will recover his little son who was stolen from his home one year ago last May. Dr. Byers has spent his entire resources 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 outcast. It is believed that if this article is reprinted in the newspapers it will uncover the lost boy's concealment and return him to his distracted parents. In doing this the profession of journalism will be fulfilling one of its highest destinies. There is a reward of-$500 awaiting any information that will lead to the boy's recovery. No questions will be asked and if the abductor himself would deliver the boy to his parents he would not be molested. The bereaved parents are heartbroken with grief and 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 sympathy that makes the world akin, and is inspired, from the belief 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 alive, was 6 years old last July, is of light complexion, has gray eyes, left eye notibly crossed, has a small V-shaped nick in the edge of the left ear, has a sharp chin and a narrow, projecting forehead. He is rather small for his age, and is unusually bright and intelligent, talking after the manner of a boy much older. (Exchangers please copy.) LEGAL ACTION RECOMMENDED. New York Life Will Be Asked to Refund Campaign Boodle. Recommendations that legal action be instituted to recover campaign contributions made by the New York Life Insurance company were submitted to the trustees of that company at New York Wednesday by the special investigating committee headed by Thomas P. Fowler. It is recommended that the money be recovered from such officers and trustees as counsel shall decide are liable therefor. COLORED PEOPLE GIVE AID. Negroes in Meridian Ralse Sum of $700 for Storm Sufferers. The better class of negroes in Meridian, Miss., are supporting the general relief committee in the firm stand it has taken against feeding idle and shiftless blacks who claim to be victims of the tornado. The better class of negroes held a meeting Tuesday and after sustaining the conduct of the general relief committee raised $700, which was added to the general relief fund. HIS WHISKERS "BOTTLED." Man Loses Fine Growth of Beard Through Treacherous Machine. Ike Stinson of Dublin, Ga., lost a very fine growth of beard by getting some of it caught in some machinery at the plant of the local bottling works. All of his beard under his chin was torn out by the roots, making a clean sweep of the hairs on that portion of his neck. IN LAND OF DREAMS EVENTS REVEALED TO THOSE WRAPPED IN SLUMBER. Englishman Saw Vision of Brother's Murder and Identified His Slayer—Man Killed Wife While in Somnambulic State. Not long since the first hanging occurred in the new province of Alberta, western Canada. Charles King an American, and Edward Hayward, an Englishman, mining prospectors, had gone upon a trip together to the shores of the Lesser Slave lake. During the trip Hayward mysteriously disappeared. It transpired later Au Derni te s'en les Brouiller Sat 3000 thursday that King, during a quarrel, had shot and killed him. Terrified by his deed, King sought to remove all traces of it by burning the body in a camp fire. Some Indians had seen the men together, had heard the fatal shot and found some bones, buttons from clothing and various metal articles known to belong to Hayward in the ashes of the camp fire, and so King was arrested. From far away England, the former home of the victim, however, came the strangest part of the story. On the morning after the murder in western Canada, Hayward's brother Henry, then at the old home, told his sister that during the night he had a dreadful dream. In it he had seen his brother Edward shot and the remains cremated in a fire. Every detail was perfect. The surroundings of the crime were shown, and the features of the man who did the shooting were clearly revealed by the dreamer. When Harry Hayward went to western Canada to take part in the prosecution of his brother's murderer he related this dream. He was shown a number of photographs and promptly picked out from them that of King as the man whose face had been revealed to him. At Lockland, Ohio, last summer, the police discovered a man who had broken into and scattered the contents of more than forty houses, and yet they did not arrest him. He was a well-known and respected citizen, and it was found that his depredations had been committed in his sleep. Early one morning he was found sitting, fast asleep, outside the roof of a house that he had entered. As no valuables had been removed from any of the houses entered, and as it seemed to be conclusively proved that the man's marauding expeditions had been conducted while he was under the mysterious influence of dreams, he was not arrested. The dangers of somnambulism were recently illustrated in the town of Stockwell, England, a month or so ago, when Francis Lake, a highly esteemed resident, while walking in Shot his Wife in a Dream his sleep, shot and nearly killed his wife. It was conclusively shown that Mr. Lake had no motive and no intention of killing his wife. He had been known for some time to walk in his sleep, but never before had the results been serious. In their investigation the police were convinced that Lake was not guilty of intentional wrong- During a whooping cough epidemic at Wellington, Mo., one little girl who had planned to give a birthday party found herself unable to do so because of danger of spreading the distemper from which she was just recovering. Finally, she decided to confine her guests to those who had already had the disease. It was an ultra-exclusive affair which excited no envy.

It is the property of Sergeant Johnson, the Blackbirk coroner's officer.—London Daily Express. African Bird That Keeps Its Mate Imprisoned. A remarkable mode of incarceration is practiced by the hornbills, birds with immense bills and horny crests, which inhabit Southern Asia, the Malayan islands, and Central and Southern Africa. In most, if not all, species the brooding female is walled up in a hollow tree and fed by her mate. She remains confined in her prison until the eggs are hatched, and in some species until the young birds are able to fly. Meanwhile the mother has become temporarily incapable of flight, as she has moutled, or at least shed all her wing feathers, during her captivity. But the male is indefatigable in providing for his family, and is said to work so hard that he is reduced almost to a skeleton at the end of the brooding season. According to the theory of many natives the female is imprisoned to prevent her neglecting her duty of brooding, and if she has been unfaithful or negligent her mate closes the little window of her cell and abandons her to a painful death by suffocation. The true story, perhaps, is this: The female walls herself in so that she cannot fall from the nest after losing her fethers, and also to protect herself from enemies. The building material is her own excrement. This version is less poetical than the other, but it is probably nearer the truth. It is supported by the statement that the female liberates herself as soon as the young birds are well grown, so that her prison is less formidable than it appears—Scientific American. Warning to Thriftless. A quaint tablet is fixed on the exterior wall in the center of almshouses built for four windows by Mrs. Hester Clark in 1735. The tablet has a curious figure of a man wearing a cocked hat. Formerly this figure held a hatchet in his right hand, but, the hand having dropped off, the hatchet is now suspended against the wall. 1 The following inscription appears below the figure: "He that gives away all before he is dead, Let 'em take this hatchet and knock on ye'head." Ulys Deer in Vermont. It is seriously affirmed that farmers in the northern part of Rutland county would like permission to kill a big, ugly deer that would weigh dressed 300 pounds and has immense horns. This terror of the woods, they say, chases men to cover, will not yield the right of way when he meets teams in the road, and in devious ways makes himself decidedly unpleasant. He recently paid a visit to a Castleton farmer and, when ordered away, refused to leave, although seven other deer that were with him turned and fed when the farmer and his dog went out. The big deer, however, was in no humor for debate, and promptly chased the collie into the barn—St. Albans Messenger. Preacher a Lamplighter By an agreement with the village authorities of Southold, Long Island, to light and extinguish the street lamps each night for $25 a month, Rev James Murray, pastor of the Southold Universalist church, has brought upon him the criticism of many of his congregation. Southold's populace retires very early. All street lamps must be extinguished promptly at 11 o'clock. Rev Mr. Murray's salary of $700 a year will be increased by $300 through his work on the street lamps. He proposes to use the time spent on the street twice each evening in thinking out his sermons.—New York Tribune. To Wash Dishes. This is the kind of machine that is used in hotels to wash dishes. The Largest Horse. The largest horse I can find in the United States is Royal Prince, who was raised in Crawford county, Pa. He is a dapple gray, stands nearly seven feet high at the shoulder, weighs 2,800 pounds when fat, wears a No. 30 collar and a No. 9 shoe and is very finely proportioned.—Farm and Fireside. "Camp Meeting" John Allen Selzed by Enemy of Mankind. "Camp Meeting" John Allen, the famous Methodist divine of Maine, paying held service in Portland one Sunday forenoon in summer, met an appointment at a crossroads schoolhouse in one of the rural districts in the afternoon. His fame went before him, and the little schoolhouse was crowded when he entered. Every seat being taken, he sat down on top of a desk by an open window. During a season of prayer he leaned over, with head in hand and feet extending out of the window. A mischievous boy, seeing the pair of human appendages hanging from the A boy is running down the street. "The Devil's Got Me!" window, and feeling comparatively safe from his position outside, seized one of his feet and commenced a lively tug thereat, when "Uncle John" started up, and, with his characteristic quickness of wit, exclaimed: "Pray on, brethren, the devil's got me." KILLED BEAR WITH PENKNIFE. Washington Man Hero of Remarkable Fight With Grizzly. W. H. Wright of Spokane, Wash., who has killed many grizzly bears, was a visitor at the New York zoological park yesterday. He made what has been described as the best "kill" of any hunter in the West, when he fought a grizzly bear with a small pocket knife in the Clearwater country. Mr. Wright was hunting bears with two companions when he found his two dogs fighting a large grizzly near their camp. He had left his gun in camp, and while he was searching for a club to attack the animal it turned on him. He drew his pocket knife. Aided by the dogs, which turned the attention of the animal from him, Mr. Wright seized every opportunity to stab it. Although he narrowly escaped blows from its paws, he persisted in his attacks until, after a long fight, he killed it. He escaped with a few injuries, but the dogs were painfully wounded.—New York Herald. Rats Cause an Explosion. In a house at Sulby, near Ramsey, rats got at some powder, which was kept in a chest for quarry, blasting, leaving a trail. Two men, named Cowley, were making a search with a candle when it fell from the candlestick, setting the powder on fire and causing an explosion. The men, who were badly burned, rushed out of the house and jumped into the river, as their clothes were ablaze. The house was wrecked—London Daily. Express. Luther's Farewell. In this little church in the Eugadine Luther preached his last sermon. Dog That Does Chores. One of the most intelligent dogs in the state is a Scotch collie owned by Gilbert H. Le Place of Deep River, Conn. To earn his breakfast the dog each morning fills the wood box, carrying one stick at a time in his mouth from the wood pile outside into the kitchen. He also notifies the members of the household when the telephone rings if they are outdoors or calling on neighbors. There are several subscribers on the line, but the dog can distinguishe the Le Place call, one long and three short rings, from the others. Historic Building Demolished. Hancock county, Malne, loses a building of much historic interest in the old town hall of Castine, which is now being demolished. It is not known just when it was built, but it was used as a courthouse as long ago as 1790 and it was also the first place of religious worship in the town. Twins Strangely United Two Hindu girl twins are being exhibited in Poona'who are joined at the back, with their faces in opposite directions. They have separate legs and feet, and when one goes forward the other is dragged behind. The oldest pipe organ in existence in this country, and the third one to make its appearance in America, is located in Winchester, N. H. The instrument was built by Henry Pratt, a native of Winchester, who, like his father, was a carpenter by trade. It chanced that in the year 1788, at 19 years of age, he went with his father to assist in building a church in Hudson, N. Y. While there he obtained a draft of an organ in that locality, which had been brought over from England. This draft Pratt took home with him and showed it to one of the most prominent of Winchester's citizens, Capt. Smith. The captain at once evinced intense interest, and made the following proposition to Pratt: "If you will build the organ, I will give you a bushel of rye per day while you are building it, and if you succeed in making an acceptable instrument, I will pay you $300 additional." Pratt began work immediately, and one year later, in the summer of 1789, he finished the organ. After due consideration it was pronounced a success, and was accepted and paid for by Capt. Smith, who at once presented it to the citizens of Winchester. It was first used by the Congregational society, the only denomination in town holding service at that time. For about sixty years it was in constant use by either the Congregationalists or the Universalists. The organ has five stops, namely, principal, stop diapason, open diapason, 12th and 15th. The 12th and 15th have metal pipes made from the lead taken from tea chests. All the other pipes are constructed of old growth pine, of which there used to be large quantities in the region of Winchester. The keys were formerly of mahogany, with a narrow strip of ivory running through the top of the sharps. In the center of the natural keys were pieces of ivory about half an inch 5 Organ at Winchester, N. H. square. These were replaced by more modern keys when the organ was repaired.

It is claimed by the many fresh devotees of this peculiar hobby that it provides excitement and sport, while as its aim is the extinction of vermin its uselessness is beyond question. Mr. H. F. Willoughby Greenhill, a stock broker, and a party of friends, with the assistance of four dogs, bagged ninety-two rats on Saturday, and nearly as many during the preceding week. The sport is general all over the county of Surrey, and the services of those who follow the pastime are in requisition. In all rat infested quarters—London Express. Big Eagle Comes to Town in Car. In a struggle with an eagle, which flew from an empty box car in the yards of the Southern railroad Jesse Wolf's clothing was torn in several places. After he had maimed the bird with a pistol shot he dispatched it with a blow in the head with a wagon spoke. Wolf will have the bird, which measures 5 feet, 8 inches from tip to tip of wings, stuffed. The bird is thought to have secreted itself in a box car while it was in eastern Kentucky and was unable to gain its freedom until the car was opened upon its arrival in this city.—Louisville Post. Toy Spaniel in a Sweater. the pampered pets of Society "doggy" ladies are wearing sweaters and kimonos to protect them from the cold while they are at dog shows. Several ladies, indeed, have their favorites clad thus even at home when the weather is cold. The quality and workmanship of these garments are in some cases extravagant in the extreme. They are trimmed and ornamented regardless of cost—London Telegraph. Maine Hotelkeeper Was in No Humor for Fooling. George Moses, proprietor of the old tavern at Bucksport, Mc., rarely allowed the desires of his guests to interfere with his general plans for running his hotel. Many years ago a relative of mine spending the night at the tavern, asked Moses to see that he was called in time to take the early train out of Bucksport. Moses looked sternly at him and said: "So you want to be called at 4 o'clock, do you? Well, where do you think you be—in New York? I want you to understand, young man, that I am the bellboy, the porter, the head waiter and the clerk A man falling from a chair. Dragged Him Out of Bed. in this tavern, and I don't sit up all night to wake people up." A long argument ensued, and finally Moses agreed that the early call should be put through, and my uncle retired without any compunctions of conscience for causing so much trouble. In the morning, when called, he decided, as there was a blinding snow storm, to wait for the afternoon train, so repelled to Moses' gruff "Time to get up" by saying: "I guess I won't take that train." Like a whirlwind Moses dashed into the room, dragged the shivering form out of bed on to the ice floor, and with a wrathful "By gum, you will take that train," he stood by and watched the hurried dressing to see there was no backsliding, and my uncle took the train—Boston Herald. STEAMBOAT RUNS STREET CARS Baltimore Company Thus Meets Extra Demands for Power. A steamboat is being used to help operate the electric street cars in Baltimore, and it is a rather novel experience to be whisked into the suburbs with the knowledge that one is being propelled by a steam craft afloat in the harbor down in the center of the city. The great power plant of the United railways and electric company cannot meet the extra demand for power due to the placing of 100 new and heavy cars on the routes. To overcome the difficulty the railway corporation, which operates all the cars in Baltimore and its suburbs, has hired the Baltimore and Philadelphia steamboat Lord Baltimore and moored her at the dock alongside the power house of the corporation, down on the Patapsco river. The boilers and machinery of the steamboat were originally built for a torpedo boat destroyer, and the vessel has more than the ordinary steam-making power.—New York Herald. Shergold's Safety Bicycle. The Shergold safety bicycle was constructed in the eighteen-seventies. To operate its brake the rider had to twist its handlebars around. * The thickness of its chain is also noteworthy. Greedy Seaculls. A Nanaimo fisherman had a unique experience with a flock of seagulls several evenings ago. He reached Nanaimo in an open boat containing two tons of herring. While uptown the seagulls took possession of the boat. On his return all but sixty flew away. This number had so gorged themselves with herring that they could not fly, but hopped about in a state of helplessness. The fisherman finally climbed into the boat and lifted them overboard. They were able to swim with an effort, and most of them went ashore to recover from the efforts of their feast.—Tacoma Ledger. Whisky Shipped in Barrel of Apples. The United States customs officials have made an important seizure at Newport, at the office of an express company. A barrel supposed to contain apples, consigned to parties in Maryland from Quebec, was opened and found to contain thirty-two quarts of sealed Canadian whisky. A layer of apples covered the bottles.—St. Albans Messenger. There are fifteen Masonic lodges in Malne which have celebrated their centennials, and two more will soon be added to the list. California Girl Let Coin Decide Which Man She Would Marry. Two sultons, Roland Storrs, an English churchman, and Howard Jones, a theatrical manager, sought the hand of Miss Alberta Jawett Dabney of Monrovia, Calif. She has just become Mrs. Storrs, but not without having gone through a period of perplexity. The story comes from the lips of Miss Storrs's sister, Miss May Cutter. "She really didn't know which to marry," said Mrs. Cutter, "and so a little more than a week ago she told me she was going to leave the question of the decision of a tipped coin. "I asked her if she cared more for one than the other, and she said yes, but that she thought her family would be better pleased should she marry the one whom she herself did not prefer. "Heads for-Roland; tails for Howard," was what Miss Dabney said when she sent the coin to the ceiling. Both sisters watched its upward flight, the younger one breathlessly, and the Cupid guarded quarter came Roland. "The minute we saw which side of the quarter came up," continued Mrs. Cutter, "I gave an order for the wedding announcements, and we began making preparations for the event. "I do not know even yet whether the decree of chance was on the side of love or my sister's promptings to filial duty, as she expressed it. "But I do know that on the night of the wedding she looked very happy and very pretty."—New York World. Curious Hairdressing That there is no accounting for fashion in hairdress is, of course, a plattitude. The fashion among the Cingalees, of Ceylon, which is taken quite seriously in India, is illustrated herewith. The picture, which is a chance snapshot, illustrates the very 0 general custom. It comes as a surprise to see a man with so serious and intelligent a face wearing such an outrageous headgear. Letters Written During Crusades. M. Gustave Schlumburger, a Parisian collector, has one of the strangest hobbies of the world, and interest in the work is doubled by the variety of the objects he seeks. His hobby, which he has pursued for over thirty years, has been the bringing together of the seals formerly attached to the correspondence of the princes and prelates settled in Syria in consequence of the crusades. In all he has secured fifty specimens, which he intends to bequeath to the French nation. Some of the seals are of great interest, as, for example, that of King Amaryll II. of Jerusalem, showing on its reverse the three chief buildings of the city; that of Ballan'd'iberllin, seignour of Naplouse, who defended Jerusalem against Saladin in 1187, and that of seignour of the stronghold of Maracleus, on the seacoast of Syria, which shows the formidable. keep of the fortress. Bing Tall Wildcat Caught: A ring tall cat, an animal decidedly rare in northern Michigan, has been caught by Herman Thiele, a Negaunee man, in a trap set at Goose lake, five miles distant. It was the first specimen ever captured by either Mr. Thiele or his father, and together they have been engaged in trapping for the past forty-five years. The animal has fine, silky gray fur. Though there are some black stripes down the back, the most striking characteristic is a series of black rings around the bushy tail. In this appendage it differs radically from the ordinary wildcat. The wildcat, like the lynx, is possessed of a bob tail, while the ring tail cat has a tail over a foot in length, and very bushy.-St. Paul Dispatch. Medieval Swing. In the middle ages swings were hung by an ingenious pulley device. The rope was passed over a grooved wheel that was fastened to the ceiling by a bracket. The one who was swinging was not only pushed from behind by one of his fellows but was, also helped from the front by striking with his foot the outstretched foot of another comrade. This sport was a favorite pastime of pages. PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY. BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO 115 W. St. Julian Street. Gn.'Phone 574. SUBSCRIPTION RATE 6.

SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 1906. It is reported that the lid is on policy offices. How long will it remain on? The citizens will note how sincere the administration is along this line. THE colored people of the state will have a fair this fall. The men who are behind the movement will make it a possibility and a success It is quite noticeable that in the entire state no fight is being made on white federal office holders of any prominence. On the other hand fight is being made on the colored ones. Too, those who are waging this fight are men of the race. What is the cause? In our last issue, we noted the the presentments of the recent grand jury of the Superior Court and that part calling upon the leading colored men to break up crimes among the lower class of their people. We stated that it was the duty of the grand jury to stop the cause of the crimes and the thoughtful colored citizens would endeavor to uplift those who are down. On account of the tone of the presentments, Judge Cann also "got back" at the jury and read them the "riot act," about duties unperformed. For a State Fair. A number of the leading colored citizens met on Thursday evening at the Wage Earners Bank, West Broad street, and temporarily organized to have a State Fair. THE TRIBUNE assures the public that it will be a certainty and will give further details next week. The Poor Orphans. Practical efforts are being made to place the Chatham Orphanage on a solid basis and gain the full confidence of the public in the efforts for good Rev. Griffin is having the boys well trained. On Sunday morning the inmates of the home, accompanied by Mr. H. B Wright, will visit St. Philips Monumental church where Mr. Wright will present the claims of the orphans. A collection will be taken for them. Masonic Notes. The Grand Master's proclamation in our last notes, should meet immediate response from the delinquent Lodges Brethren in the localities of those Lodges should assist in having them to comply with the requirements immediately. The Grand Lodge will meet on June 12. Each Lodge must prepare to make full and increased reports. The time is not far: immediate work is needed The Worshipful Master of Eureka Lodge is to be commended for his zeal for the Order and its principles in frowning down violation. His suspension of the brother who is a constant imbiber, to the discredit of the Order should be a warning to the others. Atlanta has some very strong Lodges. These will be added to by another one composed of some solid citizens. Encouraging news from the Chapters, O. E S. show that progress and harmony are hand in hand. The next grand Chapter session is expected to be a record breaking one. Worshipful Master Daniel Harris of Ionic Lodge, at Vienna has the following notes from his Lodge: Allow me a small space in the paper to let the lodges know that Ionic Lodge is doing and what she has done. She has sent to Bro. W. H. Spencer $10, the balance due for the home for this year; this makes a total of $30 paid in full. Ionic Lodge is not in a large town as others are, but she doesn't come behind. We have a membership of forty good masons and all of them are farmers. I am on my seventh term as W.

Our prosperity will be increased when the R. R. shops are started. On the first Sunday in Feb., Rev. T. M. Williamson, B. D., was unanimously called to the pastorate of the First African Baptist Church of this city. He has taken charge. We wanted a very able man to succeed Rev. Evauford, and we have got one, in the person of Rev. Williamson. We have arranged to build him a nice parsonage and then he will move his family. We want to finish it the first of May 15. Those desiring sets on Sunday nights have to hurry in order to get them. To say the least, we are very proud of our pastor. Our Sunday School and B. Y. P. U., are in a flourishing condition. Prayer for our continual success. P. L. LIKELY. Dr. W. E. Burghart DuBois, Ph. D. "Nuf-Sed's" Views. Dear Mr. Editor: While sitting, in a cosy corner out at the Masonic Temple last Sunday afternoon during the Men's Sunday Club meeting, I heard the President announced that Dr. DuBois, was coming to lecture on John Brown on March 13th, at the Fort Church. The President said that Prof. Ferris, regarded Booker T. Washington and Dr. DuBois, as being the two greatest Negroes now living. In view of these statements, I thought it well to call the attention of the vast number of readers 67 the people's paper "THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE," to the distinguished guest who will be in their midst next week. in order that the public in general may leave no rock unturned in showing him what real Savannah hospitality is. It is safe to say that Savannah's 25,000 people will greet him with an ovation and that he should have a crowded house on the night when he delivers his famous lecture on John 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 along all lines of progress, achievement and advancement. New England, the "cradle of liberty," from the very beginning of our country's history has always led other sections of our country in maintaining the highest ideals of liberty, freedom, and love of justice. It is in such atmosphere young DuBois grew up; it was natural for him to possess these rugged qualities of independence, liberty, freedom and justice. Besides these things, knowing the thorough training which New England offers her children in educational children, 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 critically the high school of Barrington, Mass., this lad with his ideals of life as were in wage in New England, was sent south where he entered Fisk University and from which he later graduated. 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 University where he made such a record that out of a class of 251 students, he was chosen as one of the six speakers for commencement exercises. But he was not to stop here, though he had a very good insight into the northern life, as a New England lad; though he had a very good insight into the life in the south, as a student at Fisk; though he received a literal education and met students from all parts of the world" as a student at Harvard, he was not to stop here; but sailed to Europe where he spent a few years in study and travel and to-day, he can talk with as much "glib" about the beautiful sceneries, landscapes, cathedrals, places of interest, etc., of the different countries of Europe, as Savannah boy can talk about the "fountain in Forsyth Park, Savannah, Georgia." Having returned to this country he has lectured to audiences in every part and has always received the highest praises. While he is a good speaker it is not along the speaking line that he is accounted a great Negro, but it is his writings which have given him prominence. Even the very bitterest enemies to the race as Tom Dixon, Jr., as well as friends to the Negro race and literary critics all over our country do admit that as a writer DuBois' equals are few. His most work from literary point of view, "The Souls of the Black Folk," has been pronounced by many as the best book written within the last 25 years. As a standard literary work, this book will stand the test of ages. Every Negro boy and girl, woman and man should read this beautiful work. Besides the "Souls of the Black Folk," Dr. DuBois, has written numerous phamphiles, magazine articles, etc., which are always greedily devoured with relish by the reading public. He is the author of "The Suppression of the Slave Trade." The Philadelphia Negro, and the annual reports of the Atlanta Conference. He is the editor of "The Moon," a weekly magazine published in Memphis, Tenn. Dr. DuBois is among the very first rank as a socialist and historian, and is so He was very instrumental in establishing the National Business League," "Afro-American Council," "The Committee of Twelve," and "The Niagara Movement," and was very much in evidence at the recent "Georgia Equal Rights Convention," in Macon. Dr. DuBois, is a member of the faculty Atlanta University and it is a source of inspiration to sit in his class-room. Rev: Wharton to Converts To the Editor THE TRIBUNK -Please allow me space in your paper to publish a letter "To Young Converters" from Rev. James Wharton, the English Evangelist, who recently conducted with great blessing revival services at our church. This letter was written by request for for the converts of our church, but I feel that all those who were converted under his preaching, both those in the different schools and those who have joined other churches should also have the advantage of these helpful suggestions for the beginning of their Christian life. SAVANNAI, GA, FEB. 16, 1905. Dear Young Converts : Now that the mission is over, I want to offer to you a few words of advice and 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 made for Christ when you gave yourself to Him, and remember that you are not now your own, you belong to Him, who has bought us with the price, even His own blood. We are His by right and by title Secondly. If as a Christian you should make a slip in your daily life either in thought, word or deed, at once lift up your heart to Him wherever you may be and confess it to God, remembering that He has said, if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins, to cleanse us from all unright-ness. Thirdly. Read the word of God, a portion every day however little it may be." To a hungry man, a small piece of bread is better than none. Your soul needs feeding as much as your body and the Bible is the food for it, by this I mean you will get the mind of God concerning you, what he wants you to do and not to do. The experience of all Bible readers is that the more they read of it, the greater the desire is to read more. It is the most interesting book in the world. I know several who carry it in their pockets and every spare moment they have read a little. It is not uncommon thing to see 'christians in Europe reading their Bible in the train, as they go to business in the early morning. It is a book of rules to us, what a chart and compass is to the mariner. Get it, read it and let it 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 places of amusement for generally they lead to more ungodliness and sin. You have something more than the husk to feed on now, you have the bread of life. Don't let it be said of you as was said in Israel of old. He feedeth on ashes, a deceived heart hath turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul. Be ever watchful for the enemy of your soul for he is constantly on the alert to wreck and ruin your Christian character and blight your virtuous life. You can always detect him by watchword, "There is no harm in it." Fifthly. Let your light shine brightly for darkness is thickening fast around you. Keep your lamps trimmed and burning. Keep your soul in the fear and love of God by prayer and communion, get into close touch with Jesus and keep friends with Him, then you'll find it the greatest pleasure of your life to please Him and constantly dwell in the sunshine of His love, having His smile upon you every step on your pilgrim journey and at the end of it may it be said of you as well as of all of us that we were kept by His power. "Nuf-Sed" Exposed. Editor of TRIBUNE: In the issue of your paper of Saturday March 3rd, there appeared an article over the signature of "Nuf Sed," in which the writer after many sputterings about "registration," hypocrites and fares proceeds to hold up to public ridicule two physicians 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—in the air any doctor in town. The undersigned being the tallest and shortest doctors in the city feel justified in concluding that the vile pen of this underer is aimed at them. On no other hypothesis than his description as to heirth do we base our conclusion. After an investigation we learned that the author of the slamorous article as well as of others that have appeared over the signature of "Nuf-Sed," is Mr. E. W. Housoutt. What this call youth may say about registration and the duties of citizens in general is a matter of no concern to us but when he singles us our, applies odious epithets, makes false charges of derliction of duty and imputes to us a failure to pay our poll tax, we think it is time to uncover him and make known to the public who this self-appointed monitor and political whip of the community is who so recklessly assails its citizens. We have always paid our poll tax and have registered in former years. We expect to register this year as soon as it suits our time and convenience. Now sonny take our advice and when the next zeal of the reformer comes upon you begin your reformation at home where you will at least have the advantage of greater familiarity with the subject. Weodrille Dots. On Sunday last Pilgrim Congregational church held its 35th, anniversary celebration. At the regular morning service The anniversary sermon was preached by Rev. Jordan Loyd, who was the first assistant to the former pastor. The sermon was very interesting and lev. Loyd held the attention of his hearers from beginning to end, while he told of the early work of the former pastor; how he struggled and worked at the peril of his life to build up this work that has been a shining light to the community since its organization. The afternoon meeting was equally as interesting. Each member present was given two minutes in which to express himself, and the testimonials of the older members who battled side by side with the beloved pastor at the beginning of the church's history, was worth hearing. The history of the church as written by Dr. Sengstache himself years before his death, was read. Rev. Spell of the Methodist Church, who supplied at times during the absence of the pastor, made a short but very encouraging address. At night Rev. Squire was present and preached. The whole day was very pleasantly spent. The members desire to thank visiting friends of the community and from the city for their presence. In 1871 the work began under the shady trees of "Dundee" with a pulpit between two of the tree, "bench fashion." The Sunday School under Superintendent, J. W. Ferguson has been and is doing good work. Vistors are always welcomed at the services.

The members of Smith's Social Club celebrated his fourteenth anniversary and also held their installation of officers at the residence of Mrs. C. Thomas on W. Hall Street. The large and beautiful parlor was befittingly arranged for the occasion. Rev J. A. Lin isay pastor of St. Philips A. M.

After installing the officers the pastor then spoke to the club collectively congratulating them on the grand success they had made. Mr. R W. Cole in a very pleasant manner ad ressed the club also, which was much enjoyed. After the installation refreshments were served, and oh! the good things were too numerous too mention and needless to say every one did all they could to satisfy the inner man. Among the invited guests were Elder and Mrs. J. A Lindsay, Prof. and Mrs. B. S. Re d, Miss M. A. Cole, Mr. II. G N xon and oth 18. Notice.

The Excelsior Aid and Social Club is making ample preparation for a five nights Bazaar, which will begin at Masonic Temple Monday evening April 16th. Put this date on your memorandum because it promises to be the best to the season. The DeSoto Hotel Bellmen's ball on Tuesday night last, at Masonic Temple, was a brilliant affair.

The Union celebrated its anniver ary on Tuesday night last at the Harris Street Hall and had one of the largest crowds of the season. The scene was a pretty one and everyone had a pleasant time. This institution is one of the strongest and best in the city and has a very fine membership. St. Phillips Dots. "What it takes to be a true Christian," formed the subject of Rev J. A. Lindsay, at 11 a. m., on Sunday. He delivered an eloquent discourse to a large congregation. The choir and congregation sung hymn No.25, "Come let us use the grace divine and all with one ac- cord." Rev. Lindsay's, text was Matthew 16-24. Rev. Lindsay held his hearers spell-bound for three quarters of an hour. It is discourse was one that will be remembered a long time. After the services, Rev. Lindsay was complimented for such a sermon, that made every Christian feel that it is good to be here. After preaching there were two persons baptized. At 3:30 p.m., the holy sacrament was administered to the largest membership that has communed for years in St. Philip. At 8 p.m., Rev. Lindsay also preached to a large crowd. On last Sunday night week certificates were issued to each class leader, steward and trustee showing their official positions in our church. This is something that has never been done in St. Philip church before. It shows that Rev. Lindsay is taking great interest in our church and is bringing it up to the highest standard, and our members and officers certainly appriciate his services. A helping hand club was organized on Tuesday night with Dr. J. H. King as president and Mrs. C. A. Williams, secretary. This club was only organizd for a short while, for case of emergency.

Dr. DuBols Coming! To Lecture on John Brown. The Sunday Club has offered many good things to the Savannah public during the last year. Indeed it has been very instrumental in bringing about harmony and a little better understanding between the citizens of Savannah in general. It has not only secured the best local talent on various occasions but has had men of ability from other sections of our country to address the citizens of Savannah. The greatest opportunity up to date however is the coming entertainment on March 13th at Second Baptist church when Dr. W. E. B. DuBois of Atlanta University will lecture on "John Brown" There were a few months ago three American Negroes who perhaps more than any other Negroes occupied the highest place of consideration as regar is the American public. These were Prun. Booker T. Washington, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, and Paul Lawrence DuBois. The names of these men and what they stand for are known throughout our land. Poor Dunbar passed to his reward, leaving Washington and DuBois. Dr DuBois is a writer who pushes a very trenchant pen and very few men are his equal in the use of the English Language. One has but to read his "Souls of Black Folk" to see that a master of English was the author. He has written many other books among which may be mentioned "The Suppression of the Slave Trade," "The Philadelphia Negro," and the annual reports of the Atlanta Conference. You will appreciate hearing such a distinguished person Admission 20 cts. March 13th at 2nd Baptist Church. The club has been fortunate in having had a paper by Mrs. Justine B. Patterson on Ladies Day This paper abounded in good advice and was received in the most satisfactory way by one of the largest audiences which have ever assembled to hear any address at the Club. Last Sunday Mr E. A. Overstreet gave a talk on "Mercantile Law." This paper was full of advice and many suggestions and statements were made concerning pawn-shops The Club will go into quarters April 23rd. Don't forget March 13th at 2nd, Baptist Church. A Glorious Day. Ls: Sunday was a glorious day and one long to be remembered in the first Congregational Church, Rev. W. L. Cash, pastor. The services were of unusual interest and the church was packed both at the morning and evening services. As a result of recent meetings fifty-five new members were received into the church. Of this number thirty-three received baptism, sixteen being immersed. Rey. Cash preached a very able and impressive sermon on the subject, "The Condition of being filled with the Holy Spirit," his text being taken from Eph. 5: 18: 'And be not drunken with wine, wherein is rior, but be filled with the Spirit.' The communion service was celebrated in the evening, together with the reception of members, and a special collection for the poor fund of the church. Sunday Services: Preaching by the pastor at 11 a.m., and 8 p.m. Sunday School, 9 a.m., Mr. M. W. Bryan, Supt., Junior C. E. meeting 3:30 p.m., Mrs. Sarah A. Brown, Superintendent. Y. P. S. C.

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." We are not punished for our sins, but by them.—Elbert Hubbard. Independence of soul must underlie that of nations.—Madame De Stael. It doesn't do to talk too much about happiness; you scare it away.—M. de Combelle. There is but one real heresy: Disloyalty to truth one ought to see.—David Starr Jordan. Inquire not of a man what God he serves, but what conduct his God inspires in him.—Maxime Du Camp. Make yourself an honest man, and then you may be sure there is one less, rascal in the world.—Carlyle. The man with a grievance is surely one of the happiest of mankind. He so enjoys to grumble.—Mrs. Edmund Gosse. People forgive much to illusions that console them, while they are very impatient with realities that do not.—G. M. Valtour. Events are judges which pass very severe sentences; the justice of history is the most costly kind of justice.—M. Valbert. State Entomologist Says the Job Can Be Done for $315,550. 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.

K.-The Rev, Winston Scott Baer, who came from Grace Church, Saulusky, O., to assume the rectorship of St. George's Church, a man of attractive personality and an excellent speaker. His subject Sunday morning was "Christian Life." His text was from Psalms cxl:12:1: "I will lift up mine eyes onto the hills from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, who made heaven and earth." Mr. Baer said: It is from the heights that we gain our wides: vision. It is from the heights of human attainment that we see life most truly. To gain these heights we need to go where Christ has climbed. There are certain incidents in His life which preserve to us the intimate connection between the truth of His life and the place where it was revealed in its fullness. Let us lift up our eyes into the hills, from whence cometh our help. Up into a mount, with a few chosen disciples. He went by night to pray, in the darkness of the light those women of the town of Israel. Before them was the Son of Man, transfigured, with shining face and garments all aglow. Then there came a voice from God, "This is my beloved Son, hear Him." How often in the days to come must they have recalled "that vision with joy. How often in the night of their perplexity, when they questioned what to do, must they have heard the voice, "This is my Son, hear Him." Their brethren saw not the vision, heard not the voice. In the valley below they slept. They had not been asked to go with their Master, and they did right to rest their weared frames for the work of the morrow. But those who went with Him saw the vision and heard the voice which declared to them that whatever other teachers were, or had taught, the perfect now was come, and the imperfect was done away. The glory of the morning star is swallowed up in the light of the sun, which it foretells. So, day by day, these men saw in Him the transfiguration of humanity, the glory of a life lived with the Father; they heard the voice of that Father saying, "This is my Son, hear Him," and knew in Christ the perfection of sorship as God intended it to be. Is this a vision of past history? A page torn from the biography of Jesus of Nazareth? Is this a day when there is no vision, and no prophet; is this the mount of God far away, and must one journey to the Holy Land to see it? Nay; since He trod the earth, all lands are holy, and we may go into the mount, may gain a vision and hear a voice. For the glory of Christ is not dimmed, nor the voice of God stilled. As one looks back through the vista of centuries and asks for the force which has uplifted man, there dawns upon him for answer the vision of the transfigured Christ. As one seeks for the highest inspiration of brush and chisel, again, clearer or dimmer, as he may see, there stands before him the vision of the transfigured man. As he gazes at glorious cathedrals, wondering at the greatness of the work and the beauty of the art, again the Son of Man appears as the Alpha and Omega, the beginning of the inspiration, the end of all the faith. Ah, yes, and one need not go to me: the epieces of art to discern the transfigured man. Closer and nearer is He to us in life than in canvas or in stone. Wherever man kneels down in prayer, wherever in thought he lifts up his heart to God, wherever in time of meditation he goes apart to be with the Father, there cones a vision of transfigured man, glowing with the glory of God. The young man looking out into the world, the old man waiting his summons home, each may have his vision and must have it, if he would do his work right. How sad our life as Christians would be if all we did was daily round of duty on the treadmill of existence. How long the days would be; how joyless the task, with our song at best a gloe chant. How glad when weary work was done, and weary eyes were closed, and weary hands were folded on the breast. But that is not the Christian life. It is life and more abundant, with its hope. In study of the Scriptures, a mussings when the heart is too full for speech, in hours of worship when hearts and voices are upraised to God, there may come to us a vision of strength, of truth, of the better man to be, the answer to all our panting and throbbing desires to come into the fullness of life. It may be dim, because our eyes are dull. But as our eyes grow brighter, the indistinctness fades away into the glory of the transfigured man Christ Jesus. The vision of man is given to us in Him. We long, too, for knowledge of God; as we creep up "the great altar stalas which slope through darkness up to God," far, far above us we see the light of the eternal glory. And as we draw nearer, the light resolves itself into the face of the transfigured One. "We have, the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ," in whom God graciously velled His brightness that our weak eyes might see. --- Our furthest vision of God and our clearest vision of man are had in Him. We may see Him in life of noble man and pure woman as we walk through the streets. We may suddenly be brightened in the darkness of a home of sin by a glimpse of Christ shining through the life of one who lives with Him. Let us ever seek for that vision of Christ in the life of our fellows, and if we seek, we shall find. But let us remember that it is well to take time with Him in worship, in family prayer, where two or three are gathered together, in our own communing with the Father, as we go apart in the mount of prayer, which is the mount of vision, the mount of glory. Another vision, not now on mountain high, apart from others, with veil of light drawn down, but in light of day on little knob by side of road where throughs from the city pass. Three crosses reared black against the sky, and the form of Him in the midst is as the form of Him who was transfigured on the mount. When He came down from the mount of transfiguration He met His disciples at the foot of the bitt surrounded by a curious and disquiet crowd. There was a strife of tongues; there was need and sorrow of man; there was weakness of His followers. The call was made on Him, and the demon was expelled, sorrow was done away, the distressed through His strength was restored to peace. This was the epitome of His life. Then He set His face steadfastly to go to Jerusalem. From vision to service from communion with God to service of man; from transfiguration to crucifixion. His life was a life of service. He came not to be ministered unto, but to minister; He was a teacher, a preacher, a setter forth of God and man in word and life. He ministered to men's bodies; He enlightened their minds; He cleansed their souls; He strengthened them to realize the ideal which His whole life was pouring out for man in sacrificial love, as He humbled Himself and became poor that we might become eternally rich; He gave Himself up to death for us miserable sinners that we might have eternal life. The depth of sin shows the height of His love. The Cross of Calvary is the offering up of self for others. As we know well there is, wondrous strife of tongues. From every quarter there are questionings. Old forms of belief are losing power, but the old belief, we know, is not. It still inspires and uplifts, because it is life in God. Change is on the face of the earth; new and strange things are taught, sometimes even as the gospel of Christ; the seething waters of life rush to and fro, and at times one is tempted to believe that there is a reversion to chaos in spiritual things. We pass from this church, where we are gathered to worship God with the voice of thanksgiving and melody, the sound of prayer and praise, or we go from the quiet silence of our meditation, which was all filled with God's voice, into our life with other men. They may have no interest in these things, or best it may be an intellectual or operative interest. They are very critical Is this all-vision, service, death? Nay. Christianity is not a law of death, but a law of life. Buddhism may hope to escape life, but Christ came that we might have life, and have it more abundantly. Christianity is life, not death. A few weeks after the crucifixion, on another mount, was a gathering of men with loving eyes fixed on Him who was the centre of the group; and His form was as the form of Him who had been nailed to the cross, the same, yet changed. Giving them His command, and His benediction. He ascended into heaven. Vision, service, life—not vision, sacrifice, death. Through His obedience to what He knew to be right, through His translation into a life of service of the perfect vision, which He had. He had come into the higher life, and is seated on the throne with God. It was the fitting end and glorious consummation of such a life, the crowning with the glory of manhood, fulfilled and ennobled to its greatest height. The law of sacrifice is not the law of death, but the law of spiritual life. He that loseth his life for My sake, findeth it. He that humbleth himself is exalted. He that bendeth down in love, ascendeth up in glory. For the truth of the Mount of Ascension is a higher life for man into which he comes through vision and through service. Is it wrong to wish to use aright those powers which we feel within; is it wrong to long for a fuller life than that which we have; must we be content with what we are in spiritual attainment, in character? Nay, if we be Christians, we cannot be content, as we behold the hills of Transfiguration and Calvary, of vision and sacrifice, and on the hill of Ascension behold manhood crowned by God in a fuller and larger life than that which earth affords, with clearer range of vision, with larger realm of service, with richer glory of the man, as He comes more and more into the likeness of His Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Love. Nothing is sweeter than love, nothing stronger, nothing higher, nothing broader, nothing better, either in heaven or earth; because love is born of God, and, rising above all created things, can find its rest in Him alone. —Thomas a Kempis.

Made of Glass and Metal and in Various Forms for the Breezes to Ring. The wind bell, as its name implies, is made to ring by the action of the wind. In fact the wind bell is not a bell at all, strictly speaking, but a contrivance composed of a number of pendants suspended in a circle from a ring and hung close together so that they will come into contact and produce sounds when swayed by the winds. Some wind bells produce sounds that are very pleasing and musical. Some are made with glass pendants, some with pendants of metal; some are small and very simple in construction; others are large and massive and elaborate. Wind bells range in price from 25 cents to $200. The original home of the wind bell is Japan. In its simplest form the wind bell is composed of a number of narrow strips of glass perhaps six inches in length, suspended lengthwise from a wire ring about two inches in diameter. Within the circle formed by the strips thus suspended is hung by one corner a little square piece of glass half way down the length of the long strips, the strips and the square piece being ornamented with various Japanese characters and designs. This wind bell may be hung up wherever a breeze will strike it and blow the strips into contact with one another and with the square suspended among them. But slightly more expensive than this simplest form of wind bell are others of glass, with pendants of different lengths, and with a number of squares of different sizes, such a wind bell producing a greater variety of tones. Another inexpensive sort of wind bell has a number of very small bell shaped metal objects suspended on a cord at different heights, with a corresponding number of little glass balls hanging from cords, to come in contact with the metal objects, when the bell is swayed by the wind. Still another not costly form of wind bell has for pendant a number of variously colored leaf shaped pieces of metal, metallic leaves of various forms and sizes, suspended around from a ring by cords. The wind blows these leaves together, producing—the leaves being of different sizes and thicknesses—a variety of musical tones. A metallic wind bell that sells for $25 and occupies vertically a space of about three feet has, suspended around from a ring about a foot in diameter, a number of pendants, each composed of several curious metal objects strung one below the other. Below this circle of pendants and hanging from the centre of the support of the bell is a cylindrical shaped lantern of metal, the lantern being about a foot in height. A larger wind bell of metal, one that sells for $75, has no lantern, but a bigger hoop and longer and larger and more numerous pendants, each composed of several metal objects attached one below the other. A strange, if not grotesque, wind bell of metal, one that sells for $200, has for a top-piece a solid metal construction two feet or more in diameter and shaped like a great shallow bowl, and here hanging inverted and with the pendants hanging three feet or more in length around from its outer edge. The pendants of this great wind bell, each composed of a number of oldly shaped objects suspended one below the other along it, vary in length, and at the end of a number of the pendants hang odd small bells with tongues. Wind bells in their less expensive and more familiar forms are hung on porches in summer, where the breezes can play with them, and make them tinkle or produce their musical sounds. In winter such wind bells may be hung at windows more or less likely to be opened at the top, where the wind can strike them. That wind bell of metal with the lantern hanging below it would probably be hung in a hall, where it would be sounded when the door was opened. The great wind bell would, in Japan, be hung in some temple's grounds, and probably near the gate. Here it would be hung in a garden.—New York Sun. Marriage and Income. "I believe," said Vice-President J. P. Murphy of the Milwaukee National, "that a $50 a month man who gets married ought to be discharged on the general principle that he has no sense. "And yet, I don't know," he continued, reflectively, "we have some men at work here who were married when they received only that amount, and they have since been promoted and are now getting enough to live on comfortably. It makes all the difference in the world who the man and the woman are that are married on $50 a month. Some of them can get along very well on that amount, while others would be running constantly behind, and there are great temptations about a bank."—Milwaukee Wisconsin. Kentucklan Could Do No More.

Most people, however, observes the Philadelphia Ledger, would rather stay where they are than go some place, else so suddenly. People now demand the right to know exactly what they eat. To be told by maker or retailer that the food is "pure" is not satisfactory. Candy may contain "pure" white clay or "pure" dyes and yet be very harmful. Syrups may contain "pure" glucose and yet be quite digestible and even beneficial. Tomato catsup may contain a small amount of salicylic or boracle acid as a necessary preservative, which may agree with one and be harmful to another. Wheat flour may contain a portion of corn flour and really be improved. Olive oil may be made of cotton seed oil. Butter may contain beef suet and yet be nutritious. The person who buys and eats must protect himself and family, and he has a right to, and now demands, a law under which he can make intelligent selection of food. Many pure food bills have been introduced and some passed by State legislatures; many have been offered to Congress, but all thus far seem objectionable. It has seemed difficult for politicians to formulate a satisfactory bill that would protect the common people and yet avoid harm to honest makers and prevent endless trouble to retailers. No government commission or officer has the right to fix "food standards" to define what the people shall and shall not eat, for what agrees with one may not agree with another and such act would deprive the common citizen of his personal liberty. The Postum Cercal Co. Ltd., perhaps the largest makers of prepared foods in the world, have naturally a close knowledge of the needs of the people and the details of the business of the purveyors, (the retail grocer) and, guided by this experience have prepared a bill for submission to Congress which is intended to accomplish the desired cuds, and inasmuch as a citizen of the U. S. has a right to food protection even when he enters another State it is deemed proper that thegov't take control of this matter and provide a national law to govern all the States. A copy of the bill is herewith reproduced. Sec. 1 governs the maker whether the food is put up in small packages sealed, or in barrels, boxed or otherwise. Sec. 2 governs the retailer, who may open a barrel and sell the food in small quantities. When he puts the goods into a paper bag he must also enclose a printed copy of the statement of the maker which was asked to the original pkg, and inasmuch as the retailer cannot undertake to guarantee the statement of ingredients he must publish the statement of the makers and add his own name and address as a guarantee of his selling the food as it is represented to him which relieves the retailer of responsibility of the truth of the statement and throws it upon the maker, where it properly belongs. The remaining sections explain themselves. The Postum Cereal Co. Ltd. for example, have from the beginning of its existence printed on the outside of each and every pkg. of Postum and Grape-Nuts food a truthful and exact statement of what the contents were made of in order that the consumer might know precisely what he or she was eating. A person desiring to buy, for instance, strictly pure fruit jelly and willing to pay the price has a right to expect not only an equivalent for the cost but a further right to certainty as to what he eats. Or he may be willing to buy at less cost a jelly made part of fruit juices, sugar and a portion of glucose. But he must be supplied with truthful information of the ingredients and be permitted to use his personal liberty to select his own food accurately. The people have allowed the slow murder of infants and adults, by tricky makers of food, drink and drugs to go on about long enough. Duty to oneself, family and nation demands that every man and woman join in an organized movement to clear our people from this blight. You may not be able to go personally to Washington to impress your Congressman, but you can, in a most effective way tell him by letter how you desire him to represent you. Remember the Congressman is in Congress to represent the people from his district and if a goodly number of citizens express their views to him, he secures a very sure guide to duty. Remember also that the safety of the people is assured by insisting that the will of the people be curried out, and not the machinations of the few for selfish interests. This pure food legislation is a pure movement of the people for public protection. It will be opposed only by those who fatten their pockets by deceiving and injuring the people. Therefore, if your Representative in Congress evades his patriotic duty hold him to strict accountability and if necessary demand equitable and honest service. This is a very different condition than when a faction demands class legislation of the Congressman. Several years ago the butter interests of the country demanded legislation to kill the oleomargarine industry and by power of organization forced class legislation really unworthy of a free people. Work people wanted beef suet butter because it was cheap and better than much unclean milk butter, but the dairy interests organised and forced the legislation. The law should have provided that pkgs. of oleomargarine bear the statement of ingredients and let people who desire purchase it for just what it is, and not try to kill it by a heavy tax. Manufacturers sometimes try to force measures in their A CALL LOAN. The Inexperienced one (on Atlantic liner second day out)—By George! But the sea certainly gives a fellow a great appetite.

FOOD own interests but contrary to the interests of the people and the labor trust is always active to push through bills drafted in the interest of that trust but directly contrary to the interests of the people as a whole. Witness the anti-injunction bill by which labor unions seek to tie the hands of our courts and prevent the issue of any order to restrain the members of that trust from attacking men or destroying property. Such a bill is perhaps the most infamous insult to our courts and the common people ever laid before Congress and the Representatives in Congress must be held to a strict accountability for their acts relating thereto. But when bills come before Congress that are drawn in the interest of all the people they should receive the active personal support of the people and the representatives be instructed by the citizens. The Senators also should be written to and instructed. If, therefore, you will remember that at once—now—write 'to your Congressman and Senator on this pure food bill.

A Southern Senator says that one of the best and briefest of speeches that he ever heard in the Upper House of Congress was one of four words delivered by Senator Proctor; of Vermont. This speech, it appears, was a retort to a sarcastic filing by a colleague from Massachusetts. He had said: "No man in Vermont is allowed to vote unless he has made two thousand dollars trading with Massachusetts people." Whereupon Proctor arose deliberately and observed: "And we all vote."—Harper's Weekly. LAW Grape-Nuts. It is true that these articles are spoken of here in a public manner, but they are used as illustrations of a manufacturer seeking by example, printing on each pike truthful, exact statement of ingredients, to shame other makers into doing the fair thing by the common people, and establishing an era of pure food, but that procedure has not yet forced those who adulterate and deceive to change their methods hence this effort to arouse public sentiment and show a way out of the present condition of fraud, deceit and harm. The undersigned is paying to the publishers of America about $20,000.00 to print this announcement in practically all of the great papers and magazines, in the conduct of what he chooses to term, "an educational campaign," esteemed to be of greater direct value to the people than the establishment of many libraries. That is held to be a worthy method of using money for the public good. Tell the people facts, show them a way to help themselves and rely upon them to act intelligently and effectively. The reader will be freely forgiven if he entirely forgets the reference to Postum and Grape-Nuts. If he will but join the pure food movement and do things.

C. W. POST. Road Is Not for Sale. Colcnel J. PI Williams of Savannah, president of the Georgia, Florida and Alabama railway, denies that the road is for sale. Several days ago a report was published that the property was on the market. --- None But White Democrats. The democratic executive committee of the county of Butts met in Jackson a few days ago and fixed the 10th of May as the date of the primary election for the county officers and representatives. They adopted a resolution which read as follows: "That none but registered white democrats be allowed to vote in the primary." To Test Money Lending Act. 16 Test Money Lending Act. As a test of the new money lending act an Atlanta money lending firm has employed counsel, and will see whether the act of 1904 is constitutional. The constitution provides that all laws shall be uniform in their operation and shall not discriminate against any individual or set of individuals. The law will be argued in the supreme court shortly. New Guests for Atlanta Pen. New Guests for Atlanta Pen. It is stated that at an early date about 200 additional prisoners will be brought to Atlanta from various points and placed in the federal prison. This will make the total number of prisoners housed there about 700 and greatly assist in the building of the new cell block. When this new cell block has been completed the federal prison will have a capacity of 2,400 prisoners. * * * Wanted for Stealing Watermelons. Governor Terrell issued a rather unusual requisition a few days ago. He called upon the governor of Tennessee to turn over to the Georgia authorities a white man who is wanted in Walker county for stealing six watermelons. After making way with the six watermelons, the culprit escaped across the Georgia line and has finally been located in Tennessee, from where he will be brought back if the governor of Tennessee will give him up. ```markdown ``` A. New. Railroad. Chartered. A New Railroad Chartered. A charter has been issued to the Sparks Railway and Construction company, by Secretary of State Philip Cook. This company has been organized with a capital stock of $150,600, for the purpose of building a railroad from some point on the Georgia Southern and Florida between Lenox and Adel, in Berrilen county, westward to some point on the line of the Atlantic and Birmingham at Moultrie or between Moultrie and Norman Park, a distance of about twenty-five miles. --- Life Company for South. The Southern State Life Insurance company, a big old-line organization, with prominent Atlantans at the head, will begin business in the Gate City about April 1. This announcement will be received with the liveliest interest all over the south, for the south will be the peculiar territory of the new company. The capital stock of the company will be $100,000 with a $50,000 surplus. Capital and surplus are all paid up, and will probably be doubled in the next two months. * * * Fension Money Loaned the State. Pension money Loaned the States In order that his comrades and the families of deceased veterans who fought for the south during the war between the states may receive their unpaid pensions which are included in the deficit over the fund appropriated by the last legislature without waiting until that body can authorize an additional appropriation, a former confederate soldier and a prominent Georgian has offered to lend to the state of Georgia whatever funds may be necessary to pay off all claims. The money will be loaned without interest. The offer is made upon one condition, however, and that is that the name of the party who agrees to contribute the funds will not be divulged. The offer was made to Governor Terrell by letter, and he promptly accepted, it on behalf of the state, and has written the benefactor of the veterans to this effect. Under the terms of the loan, Governor Terrell is not at liberty to make known the name of the party. The deficit in the pension appropriation is about $17,000 and affects principally the pensioners in Newton and Clarke counties. --- Alleged Cracksmen Jailed. Allegan grackens sank. Dynamite cartridges, dynamite fuses, nitro-glycerine and four big bulldog pistols were discovered in a grip at the Cannon house in Atlanta a few days ago. As the grip had been found in a room which had been occupied by a gang of supposed hobos, who had been arrested and sent to the stockade, the officers at once concluded that the gang were burglars and safe blowers. There are nine members of the gang, and they were sentenced to 30 days in the stockade, and bound over for pregnancy in the recorder's court. When the grip with its deadly explosives and arsenal was found, the police decided that the best and safest place for men who had such an outfit was the tower. Accordingly, the nine men were taken from the stockade and placed in the tower. For some weeks past the police have received information of burglaries and safe blowing in the small towns near Atlanta. James M. McMichael, night marshal of Forsyth, accompanied by D. G. Hunt of the same place, arrived in Atlanta shortly after the incarceration of the prisoners, and, going to the tower, took a look at them. McMichael identifies a pistol seized with the other plunder as one that was taken from him recently when he was bound and gagged and a bank in Forsyth robbed. Hunt identified one of the men as one who had been in his store the day before the robbery was committed. --- Georgia Boys' Corn and Cotton Contest. Boys or girls desiring to enter the corn and cotton contest for prizes this year may obtain the conditions from the proper official in their own county. The contestants in the various counties must submit their specimens of corn and cotton to judges to be named by the commissioners, each county offering its own prizes to stimulate interest in its immediate territory. The judges at the respective county seats are to award the local prizes, and their winners will then compete for the grand prizes offered by the State Fair Association, the exhibit of which will be held in Atlanta next fall. These state-fair prizes are as follows: First prize ..... $75 $75 Second prize ..... 50 50 Third prize ..... 25 25 Four prizes at ..... 10 10 Five prizes at ..... 5 5 Nor does this complete the large and attractive array of premiums. In order to encourage the counties to secure as large a number of entries for the county contest and for the state fair as possible, two prizes are offered for the greatest number of entries of corn and cotton from the individual county: first prize $50, second prize $25. In addition there will be a $1 prize to the best exhibit of either corn or cotton from counties not receiving one of the large twenty-four prizes. --- Idle Cotton Mills Sold Under a foreclosure of the mortgage held by the United States Mortgage and Trust company, the Atlanta Cotton mills, which have been shut down for over a year, were bought in by the bondholders of the company at a recent sale conducted by the receiver. The price paid for the property was $10,500, and was made by the trustees for the bondholders. The plans of the bondholders who have secured the property are not known, and it has not been learned whether the mills will be put in operation soon or not. Warden Jake Moore of the state penitentiary went to Macon under instructions from the prison commission to investigate the recent killing of the convict, Wade Berry, who was shot by G. W. Oxley, one of the guards. The coroner's verdict was one, of justifiable homicide, witnesses testifying that Berry was making an attack upon Oxley with a piece of coal or rock at the time the fatal shots were fired. The prison commission is determined, however, to get at the bottom of the affair. Berry was one of the short term felony convicts furnished to Bibb county by the state under the new penitentiary law, which provides that any county may take its quota of convicts in lieu of a share of the receipts from convict hire for educational purposes. These felony convicts, though worked by the counties, are still under the exclusive jurisdiction of the prison commission, and it must, therefore, look into this matter. --- PRESIDENT SETTLES BOW. Fight Among Tennessee Republicans is Satisfactorily Adjusted. A Washington dispatch says: President Roosevelt and Postmaster General, Cortleycuh have. It is understood, worked out a solution of the row between the Brownlow and Evans factions of Tennessee republicans, which has been characterized by a number of fights and the usual amount of gun play. Under this arrangement the nomination for governor is to go to H. Clav Evans without further contest, Representative Walter Brownlow withdrawing his candidate, Wright. Brownlow is to be chairman of the convention, and will be permitted to dominate the state organization and control federal patronage. GREAT DISASTER CONFIRMED. Horror of Tidal Wave and Cyclone on Pacific Islands Not Exaggerated. A Paris special says: Minister of the Colonies Clemente has received a cable message confirming the press reports to the effect that the French establishment Oceanic was devastated by a cyclone and tidal wave February 7th and 8th. Tahiti was particularly affected. Three hundred and twenty-seven-houses at Papatee were destroyed. DIRECTORY Colored Business and Professional Men SAVANNAH, GA.
