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

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

DYNAMITE PRISON
Supposed Object of Yegg-
men’s Visit to Atlanta.’
BOLD, BAD GANG NABBED
iaclen Moyer of the Atlanta Federal
Prison Thinks Pjat Was on Foot
to Release Some of His
Notorious Guests.
The report leaked out from official
sources at Atlanta Monday that tho
nine alleged safe crackers arrested In
the Cannon houso in that city several
Gays ago composed a gang, or wero
members of a gang, who Were In At-
lanta for the purpose of dynamiting
the United States penitentiary, in
South Atlanta, for the purpose of Iib-
crating certain members of this gang
row confined in, the: institution, and
members of other gangs who are serv-
ing ‘sentences at this same prison for
highway robbery and the holding up
of trains in the west.
The report has it that the men ar-
rested are believed to have visited
.the city principally for the purpose of
‘maljng a delivery fromthe federal
prison of some of theli pals, and that
they found out that other men were
present for the purpose of freeing, by
similar moans, several of the real bad
men who are serving time for high-
way and express robberies, The ro
port has it that there 1s also at least
one woman who has been alding in
the work of making this delivery for
the purpose of rescuing her husband,
who Is now a prisoner.
Warden Moyer, of the federal prison,
when asked regarding the report, sald
that he could not make any statement,
although he admitted that one of his
guards had been fired on a short time
before the men were arrested, and
had returned this fire, and that previ-
ous to this another guard had fired on
two men who were about the institu-
tion shortly after midnight.
The warden, when asked as to
whether any preparationg had been
made in the way of preventing such
an attack, stated that every precaution
had been taken for any such attempt,
and that every possible arrangement
had been taken to make the outside
sentry service of the peiiitentiary so
perfect as to make it cost the life of
any unlnown man who tried to get
within 200 yards of the prison at night
or at any other’ time.
‘Warden Moyer also stated that Har-
ry Swain, one of the nine men arrest-
ed in the gang, had been liberated
from the federal prison about Jan-
vary 26; While serving his sentence
he had tho reputation of being a good
prisoner, so far as his conduct in the
institution was concerned. It was afte?
his. Nberation that an attempt was
made to shoot Officer Lee, one of the
ontside sentries on duty at the prison,
and tbat this fire came from tho dark-
ress beyond the big circle of electric
are lamps which light up the federal
reservation for several hundred yards
from the biilding where the prisoners
are confined. “
Warden Moyer also stated that it
was believed that there were two pris-
oners now in the institution who be-
longed to this same gang, some of the
members of which were arrested at
the Cannon house.
‘As to the inmates In the federal
prison, it 1s known that they Include
members of some of the most noted
gangs which were for years the terror
of the western country.
‘As the United States pentten-
tiary is built along the most scientific
lines for the prevention of any escape,
{t is belteved that tho intention of the
gang was to blow up some portion of
the big coll, block with nitroglycerine
or gan cotton, and take chances on
Uberating the prisoners they were af-
ter, even if the explesion necessitated
the Killlng of some of the prisoners
of the institution, as well as the guards
and officiais on duty, and those who
sleep ix the prison while off duty.
TELEGRAPHERS MAY GO OUT.

ployed by the road, will be called out,
“The demands,” he sald, “are for a

CIVIL SERVICE BY FORCE
Atlanta Pollee Board Creates Sensa
tion by Overriding City Attorney
‘and General Council.
‘The city of Atlanta may have two
complete rolice departments gt no
distant day, and unless all signs fall
there will be a row over the police
force such as will make all previous
differences that have existed between
board members sink into insignifi-
cance.
With a suddenness and quietness
that took all by surprise,.the police
board met Monday morning and de-
clared civil service in effect.
After accepting the resignations of
the pollcemen who had decided to re
sign about three or four months ago,
when civil service was first talked of,
the six members re-elected the officers
fust as they had stood. The fire bell
rang a riot call, the membérs of the
force assembled at the barracks and
were all sworn in by Chairman Nun-
nally.
‘The important question is: Will the
action of the six members stand? The
‘city attgrney has declared that such
action could not be legal; a majority
of the council, {t is sald, have agreed
‘with the elty attorney.
| ‘There is to be a fight—a legal and
a political fight—such as Atlanta has
‘Rot been a party to for many years,
and which will, with all its record for
turbulént times,’ the pollee board has
rever before encountered.
City Attorney Mayson, when inform-
ed of tho action of the police
board in undertaking to apply civil
service to a portion of the police
force, reaffirmed his opinion that
civil service could not be put into ef-
fect in the department prior to April,
1907, if any substantial number -of
men declined to resign. a
“$ cannot add anything to my opin-
fon whiclt has been given, repeatedly,”
said Mr. Maysqn. “That opinion. Is
that under the -charter amendment
pessed by the legislature civil serv-
ice could cnly be put {nto effect in
the police department before April,
1907, by the chiet, officers and men of
the department resigning and being
reelected on a civil service basis. J
have held that the refusal of anysub-
stantial number of men to resign
would make it impossible to put clvil
Service into effect prior to April, 1907.
‘This opinion was upheld by clty coun-
epi the ordinance adopted by it at
it’ meeting last week when the coun-
cil struck out the clause in the ordi-
nance which sought to apply clvil ser:
vice to the present force. My opinion
Is the same now as it has“@lways been
and there is nothing else to say.”
MERIDIAN WILL ACCERT AID.
Suffering in Cyclone Swept bistrict
+ More Than Expected.
No additional bodies had been re
covered up to Monday night from the
ruins of the buildings wrecked by the
tornado, in Meridian, Miss., but hua
dreds of men were still at worl
searching for missing persons, Th?
suffering as been found to be greater
among the poorer people than had
been at first supposed. Several thou
send carpenters and others went 30
work Monday morning, rebuilding aitd
repalring the destroyed districts, Ad
ditional convicts have been requested
from Governor Vardaman to ‘ald in
the work of clearing away the debris.
‘The general relief committeo has
finally resolved to accept any contrl-
butions from whatever-source, the de-
yelopments being such that ald will
of necessity be required. Several
thovsand dollars’ were received from
outside sources Monday morning and
added to the general relief fund. Num-
erous additional injured have been dis
covered, but none are expected to die.
Eighteen bodies have been taken to
the morgue so far, but others are be
Meved to be buried in the ruins. Two
bodies wore shipped out of town, mak-
ing a total of twenty. It is believed
that the dedth Ist will now exceed
twenty-five.
‘The work of gangs of convicts both
from the state farm at Rankin, and
from the city prisons, 93 well as thow
sends of citizens, in clearing away the
debris of the tornado, continues with:
out interruption, a cordon of soldiers
being drawn around the places where
the work Is going on. .

LARGE CITY INUNDATED
Frightful Disaster Does in the
Society and Tuamota Groups and
Was Most Destructive Ever
ae Known.
-The San Francisco Evening Post
says that 10,000 persons perished
during the storm on Tahiti and adja-
cent islands, several of which, its
account says, have disappeared. It
places the damage at $5,0007000. These
reports have not been confirmed by
the officers of the steamer Mariposa,
which brought the news of the dis-
aster from Papelti, Island of . Tahiti.
A dispatch from Hapeitl says: The
most destructive cyclone ever experl-
enced in the Society and Tuamotu
Islands occurréd on February 7 and
8 The damage in Tahiti is estimatea
at $1,000,000, and presumably a similar
| amount of property was destroyed on
‘the Tuamotu Islands, .
‘The city of Papelti was inundated,
and about seventy-five buildings ¢e-
stroyed, including the American con-
sulate and the French government
building. The shipping in the harbor
of Papeltl escaped injury, owing to
the direction of the wind, but fears
are entertained for vessels which were
cruising near the Tuamotu Islands.
aged, on the Island of Tahiti, Bread
fruit, banana, cocoanut and plantain
trees were blown down in great mim-
bers, which will result in hardships
to the natives and materially affects
commerce during the next two or
three years.
The French gunboat Zeelee has
gone to the Tuamotu Islands with
supplies of food and fresh water. The
British consul has appealed to his
government for aid for 500 British sub-
fects. Some Americans have sustain-
ed heavy losses and probably there
qill be a few instances of utter destl-
tution, The Americans are hopeful of
securing help from the Untted States.
Money and food is required.
- Thé cyclone or hurricahe, reached
the velocity of 120 miles an hour. It
struck the islands about midnight on
February 7, and continued until about
4 o'clock on: the next afternoon, The
‘island of Anaa,-Tuamotu group, 1s be-
Heved to have been the center of the
storm. -

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

In our Jast issue, we noted the
the presentments of the receut
grind 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 stat-
ed that it was the duty of the

the crimes and .he thoughtful
colored citizens would endeavor
to uplift those who are down.

“ONnfeSed’a?? Views,
last Sunday afternoon during the Men's
Sunday Club meeting, I heard the Presi
dent announced thar Di, DuBois, was
coming to lecture on John Brown on
March 13th, atthe 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 zheattention of the
vast number of readets dt the people's
paper “Tie SAVANNAIt TRIuUNE,” to. the
distinguished guest who will be’ in their
midst next week, in order that the public
in general may leaye no rock unturned
in showing bim what real Sayannah
hospitality is. It is safe to say that Sa-
vannah's 35,000 colored people will greet
him with 40 ovation and that he should
havea crowded house on the wight when
he delivers his famous lecture on Jolin
Brown.
“The boyhood days of this distinguished
Negro were spent in New England—that
section of the country. where throbs the
very heart of our national life alongall lives
of progress, achievement and advance-
ment, New England, the ‘*‘cradle of
liberty.” from the very beginning of sour
country’s history has always . led other
sections of our country in maintaining the
highest ideals of liberty, freedom, — and
love of justice {tis in such atmosphere
young DuBois grew up ; it was but nat-
ural for him to posse s these rugged
qualities of independence, liberty, free-
dom and justice. Besides these things,
knowing ‘the therough training which
New England offers her children in edu-
cational lines, this child and youth received
a foundation in the educational field which
‘was so well ‘rooted and grounded” as to
stand any and all subsequent college and
university training. [Having finished very
creditably the high school of Great Bar-
rington, Mass., this lad with his ideals of
lifeas were in vogue in New England,
was sent south where he entered Fisk
University and from which he later grad-
uated, His stay at Fisk placed him in a
position to get an insight into the life of
the south and for this reason was very
valuable to him. Having graduated
from Fisk, he attended Harvard Univer-
sity where he made such a record that ont
of a class of 28 students, he was chosen
as one of the'six speakers for comimence-
ment esercises. Buthe was not to stop
here, though he had 2 very good insight
into the-northern lifeyas a New Englund
lad ; thoughhe had & very good insigh
into the Ife in the south, as a student at
Fisk ; though he received a li'eral edut
cation and met students from all parts f-
ihe world? as a student at Harsard, he was
not to stop here ; but’ sailed.to Europe
where he spent afew years in study ang
ravel and to-day, he can talk with as
much “glib” about the beautitul sceneries,
andscapes, cathedrals, places of interest,
stc., of the different countries of Europe,
s Savannah boy can talk about the
“fountain in Forsyth Park, Savannah,
Georgia.”
Having returned to this country he has
jecturgd to audiences in every part an
yas always received the highest_ praises.
While he is a good speaker itis fot along
he speaking line that he is accounted a
sreat Negro, but itis his writings which
jave given him prominence, Even the
very bitterest enemines to the race
s Tom Dixdn, Jr., as well as friends to the
Negro race and literary critics ah ver
nur country do admit that as a writer? Du-
Bois’ equals are few. His master work
rom literary point of view, ‘The Souls of

migy asthe best book written within the

Rey: Wharton to Converts
Savannah Ga. March §, 1900,
To the Editor Tue Txipuxe :—Please
allow me space in your paper to publish a
letter “To Young Converts” from Rev.
James Wharton, the English Evangelist,
who recently conducted with great blessiog
revival services at our charch,
‘This letter was written by request for
for the converts of our church, but'l feel
that all those who were converted under
his preaching, both those ir. the different
schools and those who have joined other
churches should also have the advantage
‘of these helpful suggestions for the Legin-
ning of their Christian life,
Fraternally Yours,
W. L. Casit,
Pastor First Congregational Church,
Savaxsait, Ga, Fes, 16, 1908,
Dear Young Converts :
Now that the mission is over, L want
to offer toyou a few wonds of advice und
warning which I hope may be profitable
to you for days if not years to come?
First, Never go back on the decision
you have mide for Christ when you
gave yourself to Him, and remember
that you are not now your own, you be-
long to Him, who has bought’ is with
the price, even His own blood. We are
His by right and by title
Secondly. Ifas Christian you should
mace a slip in your daily Ine either in
thought, word or deed, at once }ift up
your heart to Him wherever you may
be and confess it to God. remembering
hat He has said, if we confess our sins,
He is faithful and just to forgive us of
mur sins, to cleanse us from ull unright- 5
-ousness,
Thirdly. Read the word of God, a
sortion every day however little it may’
be.” To a hungry man, a swail piece of
bread is better than none. Your soul
needs feeding as much as your body and
‘the Bibleis the food for it, by this I
mean you will get the mind of God con:
cerning you, what he wants you to do
and not’todo. ‘The experience of all
Bible readers is that the more they real
ofit, the greater the desire is to read
more Itix thé most interesting hook
in the world, I know several who carry
it in their pockets and every spare mo-
ment they have they read a little, It is
not uncommon thing to see Christians
in Evrope reading their Bible in the
train, as they go to business in the early
morning. Itisa book of rules to us,
what a chart and compass is to the
tine. Get it, read it and Jetit mould
and fashion your life and every day you
‘will become more like Jesus, which
ought to be our object in life.
| Fourthly, Keep clean of questionable
pisces of ainusement for generally thes
ead to more ungodliness and sin, You
‘have something more than the husk to
‘feed on now, you have the bread of tife.
Don't Tet ithe said of you as was snud of
Israel of old. He feedeth on ashes, 2
deceived heart hath turned him aside,
that he cannot deliver his soul. le ever
watehful for the enemy of your souls for
hes constantly on the alert to wreck
and ruin your Christian character and
Dlight yotir virtuous life, You can. al-
ways detect him by watchword, “There
is no harm init”
Fifthly, Let your light shine brightly
for darkness is thickening fast around
ou. Keep your Tamps trinnued and
burning Keep your soul in the fear
and Jove of Goil by prayer and commun
jon, get into close touch with Jesus aud
keep friends with Him, then you'll find
it the greatest pleasure of yaur life to
please Him and constantly divell in. the
sunshine of His love, having Mis smile
upon you every step on your pilérim
Journey and :it the end of it may it be
Said of you ay well as of all of us that we
were kept by His power,
Yours in Hisserviee,

**Nuf-Sed”? Exposed.
Eatlor of TRIBUNE: In the issue of
your paperof Saturday March 3rd, there
appeared an acticle over the signature of
“Nof Sed," io which the writer afte
many spulterings about “registration,”
hypocrites and farces proceeds ta hold. up
to publ c ridicule two physicions whom he
is pleased to term, Drs, “Long Boy” and
“Pee Wee.”
‘The former, he says stands higher—in
the air—than any other colored doctor in
town ; and the latter lower—ia the air
than any doctor in town,
‘The undersigned being the tallest and
shortest doctors in the city feel
justified in concluding that the vile pen af
this slinderer is aimed at them. On no
~other hypothesis than his description as to
heigth do we base our casclusion.
After an investigation we learned that
the*author of the slanderous article as
well as of others that have appeared over
the signature of “Nuf-Sed," is Mr. E,W.
Houstoun, What this’ callow youth
may say about registration and the duties
of cittzens ia general is a matter cf no
concern to us Lut When he singles us ou’,
4ppiies odious epithets, makes false
charges of deriliction of duty aud im
putes to us a failure to pay our poll tax,
we think it is time to urcover him and
make known to the public who this self.
appointed monitor aad pelitical wh'p of
the community is who so recklessly ase
sails its citizens.
We have always paid our poll tax and
have registered in focmer years, We ex-
pect to register thiyear a8 spon as it
suits our time and ebnvenience.
Now sonny take our advice and wlen
the nest zeal of the reformer comes upon
you bexin your reformation at home where
you will at least have the advantaye of
greater familiarity with the subject.

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.

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."

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.
A Doniphan County farmer who is known for working his men long hours recently hired an Irishman, says the Kansas City Journal. A day or so later the farmer said he was going to town to buy a new bed for Pat. "Yez needn't git extrageghant on me account," said Pat. "If it's jist the same to yez, yez can cut out buyin' a new bed and can thrade the ould war for a lanther."

Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and Face and Neck Were All Broken Out
—Cured by Cutieura.
"I had an eruption appear on my chest and body and extend upwards and downwards, so that my neck and face were all broken out; also my arms and the lower limbs as tar as the knees. I at first thought it was prickly heat. But soon scales or crusts formed where the breaking out was. Instead of going to a physician I purchased a complete treatment of the Cutieura Remedies, in which I had great faith, and all was satisfactory. A year or two later the eruption appeared again, cny a little lower, but before it had time to spread I procured another supply of the Cutieura Remedies, and continued their use until the cure was complete. I 1 now five years since the last attack, and have not seen any signs of a return. I have more faith in Cutieura Remedies or skin diseases than anything I know of. Lmna L. W.

‘Under a foreclosure of the mort-
goge eld by the United States Mort-
gage and Trust company, the Atlanta
Cotton mills, which have been shut
dowa for over a year, were bought in
by the bondholders of the company
at a recent sale conducted by the re-
colver.
The price pald for the property was
$10,500, and was made by the trus-
tees for the bondholders,
‘Phe plans of the bondhclders who
have secured the property are not
known, and ft has not been learned
whether the mills will be put in opera-
tlon svon or not.
To Investigate Killing of Convict.
Warden Jake Moore of the state
penitentiary went to Macon under In-
structions from the prison comms
sion to Investigate the recent killing
of the convict, Wade Berry, who was
shot by G, W. Oxley, one of the
guards. 3
‘Phe coroner's verdict was one, of
fustifiable homicide, witnesses testt-
fying that Berry was making an at-
tack upon Oxley with a piece of coal
or rock at the time the fatal shots
were fired.
The prison commission Is determin-
ed, however, to get at the bottom of
the affair. 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 con
victs in Hew of a share of the re
ceipts from convict hire for educa-
tional purposes.
‘These felony convicts, though work:
ed by the counties, are still under the
exclusive jurisdiction of the prison
commission, and It must, therefore,
look into this matter.
