The Savannah Tribune. VOL. XXI. COURT IS REBUKED Mob Takes Negro from Jail and Lyneches Him. STAY HAD BEEN GRANTED Delay In Execution Angered the People-Victim Was Hanged to Bridge, But Rope Broke and Body Fell Into River. Ed. Johnson, colored, was taken from jail in Chattanooga at 10:45 o'clock Monday night by a mob of seventy-five men and hanged to a beam of the county bridge over the Tennessee river. The rope broke and the negro's body fell, and the mob quickly riddled him with bullets. Sheriff Shipp and the jailor were locked in a bath room while the mob secured the prisoner. The negro was to have been hanged Tuesday, but the United States supreme court Monday morning granted a stay of execution, and this action served to anger the citizens of the city, and all day there was great excitement, and it was freely talked on the streets that violence would result. Early in the evening the mob began to form, and it was all done so quickly that only those in the immediate vicinity of the jail knew when they were ready for action. At 10:45, seventy-five of the better class of citizens assembled at the jail, and at once gained admission. Overpowering the sheriff and his deputies, they secured the prisoner and quietly led him to the bridge, where the hanging was carried out in the most orderly manner, the mob immediately dispersing. There was not the slightest attempt at rcdwydism, and the mob was composed of men of mature years. The negro is said to have confessed when first taken by the mob, but when the rope was placed about his neck he stoutly maintained his innocence. It is declared that the victim was dead of strangulation before the rope broke, but the mob, to make sure work of him, filled his body with bullets. The city was as quiet at the hour of hanging and afterwards as though nothing unusual had occurred. The crime for which Ed Johnson was lynched was an assault on a white girl at St. Elmo, a suburb of Chattanooga, which occurred some weeks ago. Immediately after the crime, a mob made an unsuccessful attempt to get the prisoner, but Sheriff Shipp had taken him away. At that time the jail was attacked and almost torn down, and during the excitement several persons were seriously injured. Atlanta City Council Knocks Out Action of Police Board. The veto of Mayor J. G. Woodward of Atlanta upon the resolution of the general council regarding civil service in the police department was overruled by the city council Monday. The police department, therefore, is now on notice officially that the mayor and general council does not regard civil service as in force in the police department. The effect also is to forewarn policemen that they will be subject to a general election during April, 1907. ARMY-OFFICE ABOLISHED. Grade of Lieutenant General Eliminated by House Action. A Washington dispatch says: As the result of the parliamentary situation when the house adjourned Friday the roll was immediately called Monday on the Grosvenor amendment to the Prince bill abolishing the grade of lieutenant general in the army. The roll call resulted in the adoption of Grosvenor's amendment, 138 to 101. The bill was then passed without opposition. Roosevelt is Made Honorary Member of United Veterans. President Roosevelt is now an honorary member of the United Veterans, having been elected by the camp Poplar Bluff, Missouri. The resolutions of the camp creating the president a member of the organization were presented to him by Senator Warner of Missouri. The organization-is composed of Union and Confederate soldiers. The president's election to membership was due to his attitude on his trip through the south last fall. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MARCH 24, 1906. PRESIDENT "OVERRULED" His Scheme for Federal Control of Corporations Repudiated by the House Judiciary Committee. A Washington special says: Taking sharp issue with President Roosevelt, the house committee on judiciary declares it cannot follow his recommendations, that congress provide for federal control of great corporations and, if possible, for the control of life insurance as interestate commerce. Coming as does its report from the republican majority of the committee on judiciary, this report has all the essentials of a repudiation by leading members of his party in congress of these features of President Roosevelt's message. The report in question denies the right of the federal government to take away from the states their police powers, expressing its dissent in strong language. "Let it be said kindly, but not offensively," is the language of the report, "that it is a monstrous doctrine, subversive of our dual system of government, to even suggest, after the distribution of these great powers between the federal government and the states, that the federal government created by the states can take from the states the power they have always enjoyed and which is expressly reserved to them by the constitution. Hamilton himself never made such a claim." The report has been drafted by Chairman Jenkins of the committee and is now in the hands of the members of the committee for their perusal. An unofficial poll of the members of the committee indicates that with practically no exceptions they concur in the correctness of this conclusion. The report of Mr. Jenkins may, therefore, be taken as the basis of the answer the committee is to make to the house In compliance with the instructions of that body. The report collates all of the important court decisions on the questions involved, treats each exhaustively and reduces the whole problem to these two principles. "The supreme court of the United States has declared, and has never been shaken or weakened in maintaining, first, that insurance is not commerce, and second that congress cannot impair the police-powers of the states." The advocates of federal regulation concede, according to the report, that insurance is not commerce. "The advocates of federal supervision admit and concote that it is entirely optional with the states to admit or exclude insurance corporations. Hence, it follows that the state has entire power to regulate. The business can be carried out without commercial transit and it is only during commercial transit that federal power can be exercised. "The difficulty of administering federal regulations is emphasized as follows: "What can congress act upon under its power to regulate interstate commerce? Congress cannot prevent the making of a contract of insurance between a company in New York and a resident of Oregon. After the contract is made, when will the power of congress attach, and to what? The policy and premium are not merchandise. As the power of congress does not attach until the merchandise is in commercial transit, it could not become active until the policy and premium start on their journey and would terminate when the place of designation is reached and the duty and power of congress would be to protect both in transit, and that is the limit of congressional power." SON PROTECTS HIS MOTHER. Forced to Kill Father Who Was on Murderous Rampage. To save the life of his mother, his wife and himself from a murderous attack made on them by his father, who was frenzled with rage and mean whisky, Elisha Franklin Purcell, at Atlanta Wednesday night, shot and instantly killed Henry Jackson Purcell. New York Life Officials Trying Hard to Retain Jobs. Samuel Untermayer, counsel for the international policy holders' committee of the New York Life Insurance company, has sent a letter to Alexander E. Orr, president of the New York Life, protesting in the name of the policy holders against what he terms the extraordinary effort that is being made by the officers of the company to obtain proxies for the annual election, which is to be held early in April. PACKERS GO FREE All Charges Made Against Them Fall Flat. IMMUNITY PLEA STANDS Their Contention Upheld by Federal Court in Chicago Indictments However, Will Stand Against A Chicago dispatch says: All the packers who were indicted by a federal grand jury last summer on charges of conspiracy in restraint of interstate trade and commerce have been granted immunity from criminal prosecution under the indictment. While the individuals are to go free, the indictments found against the corporations, of which some of the indicted packers are members and others are employees, are to stand. The jury returned a verdict in accordance with the direction of the court. A decision to this effect was handed down Friday afternoon by Judge J. Otis Humpney in the United States district court. The court reviewed the case in all its bearings, and all the essential facts which had been brought out, and concluded as follows: "Under the law in this case the immunity pleas filed by the defendants will be sustained as to the individuals and denied to the corporations, and the jury will find in favor of the government as far as the corporations are concerned, and against the government as far as the individuals are concerned." During the rendition of the decision the court was crowded by defendants and numerous spectators. Edward Morris and Edward Swift were in court and both smiled happily when the decision was announced. J. Ogden Armour was not present, but some men prominent of the employ of Armour & Co., who were under indictment were there and their joy was great. When the judge announced that the indictment would not lie against them, the defendants crowded together and shook hands. Immediately following the dismissal of the jury, District Attorney Morrison raised the question of the date for the trial of the corporations. He asked that the case be set for trial, and that it commence within two weeks. This met with a storm of protest from the attorneys of the packers, who insisted that they would be unable to prepare for the case before fall, pleading the number of witnesses which it would be necessary to bring to Chicago, the strain of the present trial, and various other reasons. After some discussion, Judge Humphrey directed that the lawyers agree among themselves on a date and notify him of their decisions next week. It is expected that the total number of witnesses in this trial, when it begins, will number, at least, 1,600. MOB FORESTALLED BY SHERIFF. Would-Be Lynchers Failed to Get Negro in South Carolina Jail. Late Tuesday night a body of armed men rode into Bishopville, the county seat of Lee county, South Carolina, and made a desperate effort to lynch a negro who recently attempted to assassinate a white man. The sheriff got wind of the mob's intention and prepared to resist it. When the mob neared the jail volleys were exchanged with the sheriff and his deputies. Seeing that they were outwitted, the crowd dispersed without bloodshed. The senate in executive session Wednesday had under consideration the Isle of Pines treaty, but, after a general discussion, lasting more than an hour, the legislative session was resumed without action having been taken. L. & N. ENTERS ATLANTA. First Train to Georgia Capital Over Road's Own Tracks. The first through freight train of the Louisville and Nashville railroad from Knoxville, Tenn., to Atlanta, Ga., over the road's own tracks, reached the latter city Tuesday afternoon and signaled, the beginning of service on another line of railway into Atlanta. It is announced that the first passenger train, with cars of the latest equipment will be put on April 15, and will make the run between Atlanta and Knoxville in a few hours. HIGH COURT IS MAD Overriding of its Edict by Mop the Cause. Victim Was Virtually Government Prisoner and Punishment is Possible for Local Officials if Laxity is Proven. The Atlanta Constitution's Washington correspondent wired the following Tuesday: A thorough investigation into the lynching of the negro, Ed Johnson, at Chattanooga, is to be made by the federal authorities, and such investigation is fraught with possibilities of trouble for somebody. The case is a most unusual one from the federal standpoint. When the mob lynched Johnson the majesty of an order of the United States supreme court staying the legal execution of the prisoner was outraged. For the first time in the history of the country a mandate of the supreme court was nullified. If it can be proven that this resulted from the action or laxity of any official, the sheriff of Hamilton county, or anybody else, such officials will be haled before the federal courts for punishment. Mr. Justice Harlan, who issued the stay of execution in the Johnson case, called at the white house this afternoon, but it is stated he did not see the president. While the announcement is made that he did not go for the purpose of conferring with reference to the Johnson case, I have it from high authority that it was his purpose to discuss the case with the president for the purpose of having the department of justice take prompt action through the federal authorities at Chattancegea for investigation looking to prosecution Acting Attorney General Jurdy said Tuesday night that the department has already begun consideration of the case, but it is so unusual no determination has yet been reached as to the method of procedure. Justice Harlan granted a stay in the Johnson case on Saturday and his action was confirmed by the full court at Monday's session. Justice Harlan himself wired the federal judge, the state judge, who tried Johnson, and the sheriff of Hamilton county, Tennessee, a synopsis of the order and instructed that Johnson be retrained in custody until the case was disposed of here. The supreme court having taken a recess until April 2, no action can be taken by that body before then. It is not probable, however, that the court would take any action in advance of investigation to be made through officials of the department of justice. PRINTERS "OSTRACISE" WATSON. His Magazine Placed on "Unfair List" for Refusing Eight-Hour Day. Tom Watson's Magazine has been placed on the "unfair" list by the labor organizations of the country. The announcement of this fact is made in The Trades Unionist, official organ of the Columbia Typographical Union in Washington. This is made on the authority of Typographical Union No. 6 of New York, which includes Tom Watson's Magazine in its list of "unfair" publications. This magazine is published by the same company, which publishes Town Topics. The company, has resisted the demand of the printers for an eight-hour day, and is accordingly placed under the ban by the unions. In commenting upon the interesting fact that the magazine controlled by one who has so frequently declared himself a friend of organized labor, the Trades Unionist says, "Perhaps it is true that Tom Watson cannot control the policy of his company toward its employees, but at least he can take his name away from the magazine." Seismic Disaster on Island of Formosa Worse Than First Reported. According to the London Daily Telegraph's correspondent at Tokyo, it is now estimated that several thousand persons were killed by the recent earthquake In Formosa. At Datiyo six hundred bodies already have been recovered from the open fields to which the people had fled on lyto succumb to their injuries. At a rough estimate the damage amounts to $45,000,000. Doctors of Several States Called to New Orleans for Consultation. Case Was Not Yellow Jack. Health officers of Mississippi and Alabama were called to New Orleans Saturday to investigate a supposed case of yellow fever on which local physicians had come to no agreement. Dr. Iron, president of the board of health, furnished the press with the following statement: "The case of Jules Ebernz was reported to be of much suspicion on Monday afternoon, March 12. Drs. Denegre Martine and J. M. Batchelor diagnosed the case as catarral jaundice. Dr. Hamilton Jones, after three days' observation of the case, reports it as yellow fever. The health officers of Mississippi, Alabama and Texas have been notified as por copy inclosed. The case was treated as a suspiclous case from the beginning and every precaution was taken." Following is a copy of the telegram mention in Dr. Iron's letter as sent to the state health officers of the three adjoining states: "New Orleans, March 16, 1906. Committee appointed to investigate suspicious fever case. Charity hospital differs as to diagnosis. Invite you to come. C. H. IRON, M. D., "President State Board of Health." Dr. Batchellor, house physician of the Charity hospital, when asked regarding the case, said that the patient was Jules Ebernz, an oyster shucker, aged 30 years. He was taken to the hospital from a lodging house on March 8, and it was understood that he had been ill about seven months. Dr. Batchellor said he had diagnosed the case as catarrhal jaundice, and had seen no reason to alter his diagnosis. He had treated and observed hundreds of cases of yellow fever, and was positive that the patient was not suffering from that disease. Ebernz had been at the hospital for about seven days, but his physician has had ample time to examine his illness and satisfy himself as to its nature Unanimous agreement of the physicians from the states named, of the local physicians and of the representatives of the United States that the patient did not have yellow fever was the result of the autopsy held Sunday on the body of Ebernz. FEW BODIES RECOGNIZED. Majority of Victims of Horrible Wreck Cannot Be Identified. Twenty-two dead and twenty-two injured is the latest estimate of the casualties in the wreck of the two Denver and Rio Grande passenger trains which collided 25 miles west of Pueblo, Col., early Friday morning. Only seven of the dead bodies can be identified and only one of these retains sufficient outline of features to be readily recognized. Two telegraph operators are held in the public mind to be responsible for the disaster, although no formal indictment has gone out against them. Both have been ordered discharged from the service of the road. A coroner's jury has been empanelled, and will investigate the accident. FOR POISONING HUSBAND. Louisiana Woman is Convicted and Given Fifteen-Year Sentence. GIVEN Fifteen-Year Sentence. Charged with poisoning her husband with strychnine in order to be free of marital ties and to marry a younger man, Mrs. Bettie E.. White, 28 years old, of comely appearance, has been convicted of manslaught, in the district court at Rayville, La., before Judge W. J. Gray, who sentenced the woman to a term of fifteen years in the penitentiary. Attorney General Wants to Know About Lumber Trust in Mississippi. The United States government is about to take a hand in the investigation of the alleged lumber trust in Mississippi. New York District Attorney Will Address. State Bar Association. William Travers Jerome, district attorney of New York city, will be the guest of the Georgia Bar Association, which meets at Warm Springs in July.6 In order to have the distinguished jurist and political reformer as its guest, the State Bar Association has changed the date of holding the annual meeting of the lawyers from July 4 to 6 inclusive to July 18, 19 and 20. A FRIGHTFUL SMASHUP Denver and Rio Grande Trains Crash Together in Blinding Snow Storm and Scores Lose Life—Caused by Sleeping Operator. A wreck accompanied with horrors exceeded only by the Eden disaster, which occurred August 7, 1904; on the line of the same railroad, resulted from a head-on collision of two passenger trains on the Denver and Rio Grande railroad, four miles east of Florence, Col., at an early hour Friday morning. According to the latest dispatches from Pueblo, conservative estimates on the total loss of life place the number of dead at thirty-five. Rio Grande officials insist that the exact number of persons on the two trains cannot be ascertain; that it is impossible. S. F. Lively, night operator at Swallows, whose alleged failure to deliver orders to train No. 3 is supposed to have been the cause of the wreck, has been in the employ of the road for many years. He was relieved from duty Friday night, and will be suspended until after the matter is thoroughly investigated by the officials. The trains were the Utah-California express No.3, westbound, from Denver, and the Colorado-New Mexico express, No.16, eastbound from Leadville and Grand Junction. They met on a sharp curve, and were less than two hundred yards apart when the engineers discovered that a collision was imminent. It is known that the engineer of the westbound train put forth every possible effort to bring his train to a stop, but his efforts were fruitless, and, although he succeeded in checking the speed of his train, the crash that followed was beyond his power to prevent, and he went to his death with his hand on the throttle, faithful to his charge. This mucn is vouched for by his fireman, who, seeing the uselessness of remaining in the face of sure death, jumped and saved himself. Of the conduct of the engine crew of the eastbound train, it can only be said that they died at their post, for no one lives to tell the story of their heroism. The disaster was made more horrible by the manner of the death of many of the passengers. Fire swept over the wreck, engulfing the victims in a caldron of flame and leaving only charred and blackened bones to tell the tale of slaughter. In a blinding storm which made it almost impossible for the trainmen to see ahead, the two trains collided head-on at a point midway between Portland and Adobe, 25 miles west of Pueblo, at 2 o'clock in the morning. The Utah and California express No. 3, westbound, left Pueblo over an hour and a half late, and was given orders to meet the Colorado and New Mexico express, No. 16, eastbound, at Florence. This order was changed, and the westbound train was directed to pass the eastbound train at Beaver, about 12 miles east of Florence. The order should have been delivered to the train crew at Swallows; but for some reason still unexplained, the operator there neglected to do so. In the meantime, the eastbound had received its order, and expected to meet the westbound train at Beaver. In the forward coach of the westbound train every seat was occupied by passengers, most of whom were homeseekers on their way to the northwest. A number of foreigners were among them, and in their terror they gave up life without making any attempt to reach safety outside the burning car. Paralyzed with fear and with prayers upon their lips, they sank to the floor of the car and were roasted alive. ABOLISH FOURYEAR TERM Is Purport of Resolution Passed by Holston Methodist Conference. The ministers' council of the Abingdon district, Holston conference, Methodist Episcopal church, south, in session at Knoxville, Tenn., passed a resolution to be forwarded to the general conference of the church at Birmingham, Ala., in May, praying that the four years' maximum limit for continuous service for a minister at a single charge be abolished, and that the districts and jurisdictions of presiding elders be made smaller.

At a called meeting of the Augusta Confederate Veterans a motion to send delegates to the memorial to late General Wheeler, which will soon be held in Atlanta, was laid on the table, it being the expressed sense of the meeting that they did not believe in "mixing the blue and the gray." 9 Dyer Also Accultted. George H. Dyer was found not guilty of the murder of Policeman Patrick Kearney at Savannah. The trial had lasted four days. The trial was the second for murder growing out of the general political battle in which partisans of the two local factions engaged in front of the city hall on February 9. To War on Mosquitoes. The extermination of mosquitoes is now the object of the Atlanta board of health. The finance committee of the city council has recommended an appropriation of $2,000 for the purpose of starting the work, and promised to give another $2,000 to the board of health for the mosquito campaign when the June apportionment sheet is written. * * * Three Postmasters Indicted. Three postmasters have been indicted by the grand jury of the United States court at Savannah. William H. Peeples of Kingsland, in Camden county, is charged with the misapprodiating of money orders to the amount of $290. Charles R. Jackson was the colored postmaster at Darlen. It is charged that he abstracted amounts aggregating $497, of which $401 was in general postage funds. The third postmaster was William B. Maxwell, colored, of Thebes, Liberty county. He is charged with embezzling $450 in postoffice funds. B. W. COOPER, General Manager- This company is duly chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia, and has compiled with all requirements of the State Insurance department, therefore all policy holders are protected with all the safeguards that the strict insurance laws of this State seek to protect its citizens. Its affairs are directed and managed by Negro men of the city, of Savannah of leading standing, and whose character and reputation are of such as to command the respect and confidence of all the people of that community. The same men that manage this Society are the ones that organized and are conducting the affairs of the first successful Negro Savings Bank in this state, therefore we can readily see that by connecting themselves with this Insurance company their interest will be in safe hands. By comparing our rules and benefits with other first class companies it will be seen that we offer the most liberal inducements with the largest sick, accident and death benefits to our members than any other company in this business. That we pay our claims promptly can be testified to by the thousands of our satisfied members. Liberal Terms and Commission. Association held their annual meeting the past week and elected officers for the year. Alex W. Smith, first vice president, was elected president; J. Lee Barnes, first vice president; Charles I. Ryan, treasurer, and Frank Weldon, secretary. Mr. Ryan and Mr. Weldon were both re-elected. Chief Joyner of the city fire department, declined to accept the presidency of the fair association for a second term, though the fair last year was probably the most successful state show ever held. Dago "Citizens" Lose Rights. Thirteen more Greek citizens at Savannah have forfeited their right to call themselves "American citizens." The act to annul the proceedings of January 24, when they were naturalized was taken in the city court. The erstwhile citizens appeared, and admitted that they had obtained their papers by false testimony and fraud, and asked to be allowed to withdraw the statements on which they gained them. Judge Norwood ordered the papers canceled. The prosecutions in progress in the United States court have struck terror to a number of the "citizens" who were, it is said, made for political purposes. Gift to Tech from Carnegie. The Georgia Technological school has been tendered the sum of $20,000 by Andrew Carnegie for th epurpose of erecting a handsome library building. It is provided, however, that the school is to agree to furnish $2,000 per year to sustain the library and employ trained help. This proviso is not likely to be a stumbling block, as the Technological school already employs a trained librarian, and has at lease 4,000 volumes that must be catalogued and cared for. With six hundred students, the majority of them using the library., there has been felt the need for larger or additional quarters, and Mr. Carngie's offer delighted the boys nearly as much as it did Professor Mathcwson, who has been working for several months to secure the potential influence of the famous philanthropist.

The holding company, which is financing the venture, advanced the necessary amount to settle the litigation, and will pay the present indebtedness of the concern in full. They also provided for the payment of $14,500 of bonds due the town of Douslasville. The property of the New Century Cotton Mills cost about $100,000. The building is of new construction, and it is put up of the very best material. There are about fifty acres of land in the mill site. A Portland (Me.) man, Daniel G. Loveitt, has a curiosity in the shape of a doll which was brought from England sixty-five years ago. This doll, which is about a foot in length, has the same dress that it wore when brought here, and those who are acquainted with the fashions of 1840 have an idea of its appearance. The doll's hair is genuine, and is arranged as was customary in the days when it crossed the sea. Mr. Loveitt, among other mementoes of bygone days, has some of those old rewards of merit which good boys and girls received from their teachers. These little slips would not now be considered valuable by children, but by the boys and girls of 1840 and a little later they were considered "something great." Two German scientists announco the discovery of a new anesthetic having all the virtues of cocaline without the latter's secondary ill effects. The new substance is called "allypine."

Some two years ago Attorney Boykin Wright, brought suit for the city of Augusta and the county of Richmond against the Georgia Railroad company for taxes on 15,000 shares of stock in the Western Railway of Alabama, owned by the Georgia road, and won in the state courts, the suit having been brought in Augusta because that city is the home of the defendant company. Not satisfied with the result in the Richmond superior court, the railroad company appealed the case to the Georgia supreme court, where the decision of the lower court was sustained. That brought the question up to Comptroller General Wright, whose duty in the premises is the collection of taxes on the 15,000 shares of the Western of Alabama road. At that stage of the game the plaintiffs stepped in with a mandamus directed to the comptroller general in which the counties and towns enumerated demand the payment to each of them a portion of the taxes to be collected. The plaintiffs in the mandamus lay claim to a part of the money because the Georgia railroad, which owns the stock declared to be taxable, runs through the counties and cities mentioned. --- The litigation involving the New Century Cotton Mills at Douglasville, has at last been settled, and the mills will be sold at public outcry by order of the United States court next April in Atlanta.

It is a sad but certain fact that every year brings an increase in the number of operations performed upon women in our hospitals. More than three-fourths of the patients lying on those snow-white beds are women and girls who are awaiting or recovering from operations made necessary by neglect. Every one of these patients had plenty of warning in that bearing down feeling, pain at the left or right of the abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back, pelvic catarrh, dizziness, fatulency, displacements or irregularities. All of these symptoms are indications of an unhealthy condition of the female organs, and if not needed the trouble may make headway until the penalty has to be paid by a dangerous operation, and a lifetime of impaired usefulness at best, while in many cases the results are fatal. Miss Luella Adams, of Seattle, Wash., writes: "About two years ago I was a great sufferer from a severe female trouble, pains and headaches. The doctor prescribed for me and finally told me that I had a tumor and must undergo an operation if I wanted to get well. I felt that this was my death warrant, but I spent hundreds of dollars for medical help, but the tumor kept growing. Fortunately I corresponded with an aunt in New England States, and she advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it was said to cure tumors. I did so and immediately began the health and I was entirely enthralled, the tumor disappearing entirely an operation. I wish every suffering woman would try this great preparation." Just as surely as Miss Adams was cured of the troubles enumerated in her letter, just so surely will Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cure other women who suffer from female troubles, inflammation, kidney troubles, nervous excitability or nervous prostration. Mrs. Pinkham invites all young women who are ill to write her for free advice. She is daughter-in-law of Lydia B. Pinkham and for twenty-five years has been advising sick women of charm.

WORST FORM OF ECZEMA Black Splotches All Over Face—Affected Parts Now Clear as Ever—Cured by the Cuticula Remedies. "About four years ago I was afflicted with black aplothes all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced a severe itching irritation, and which caused me a great deal of annoyance and suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of my town. After thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced it to be skin eczema in its worst form. They treated me for the same for the length of one year, but the treatment did me no good. Finally my husband, purchased a set of the Cuticura Remedies, and, after using, the contents of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent in connection with the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, the breaking out entirely stopped. I continued the use of the Cuticura Remedies for six months, and after that every splatch was entirely gone and the affected parts were left as clear as ever. The Cuticura Remedies not only cured me of that dreadful disease, eczema, but other complicate 'troubles' is well. Lizzie E. Sledge, 540 Jones Ave., Selma, Ala. Oct. 28, 1905."

FARM AND STOCK -YARD If those who raise poultry would realize that fowls that have had free access to sunshine during seven, eight or nine months in the year miss it greatly during the months of confinement, they would do some changing in their methods of house-building and arrangement. Unfortunately many writers are decrying the scratching sheds, claiming that they are not sufficiently valuable to warrant their cost and maintenance. Of course, if one has a large poultry house, well lighted and so arranged that all the sun possible enters, then possibly the scratching shed is superfluous. But how many such houses the there the country through? One may have a very small house proper, and by the aid of the scratching shed raise a good many fowls. But whatever the arrangement of the poultry quarters, plan so that they will have all the sunlight possible, and you will see a decided gain in the egg production. Indianapolis News. A Forward Movement. The American Shorthorn Breeders' Association took two great steps forward at its annual meeting last week, says National Stockman. The first was in admitting to registry animals from ancestors recorded in the 40th volume of the herd book instead of the 20th volume, published in 1873. This admits to record many valuable cattle which were shut out under the old rule. The second step was the recognition of the milking Shorthorn. An appendix for the registration of dairy Shorthorns was provided for and it was decided to mark with an asterisk the name of any cow giving 8,000 pounds or more milk in a year. Dairy classes at shows will also be encouraged and alided financially. There seems to be a general feeling that Shorthorn breeders should get back to the dual purpose idea in breeding and that breeders of milking strains deserve financial encouragement. Moreover, farmers are demanding Shorthorns that give more milk rather than those of extreme beef type. The association acted wisely in taking steps to perpetuate general-purpose cattle. Keep All Machines In Working Order. Let us give some of the much abused implement manufacturers credit for placing on their machines, in plain letters, at least one half of the recipe for implement longevity: "Keep nuts tight," and "oll all bearings." Yet I fear that through very familiarity with this important advice we often neglect it. For surely no one who has handled farm machinery and observed its decline in his own or his neighbor's hands, will ask argument as to the necessity of oiling the bearings and keeping nuts tight. There are many things to look after upon the farm, and if one is not wide awake something is apt to suffer neglect. And this when it applies to machinery, constitutes a great farm "leak." From the vibration of many machines, and from the shrinking of wood parts in all of them, there is a constant tendency for the nuts to work lose. If care is taken in the first place to keep things snug, so there is no "lost motion," the vibration will be much reduced, but it is sometimes a very good plan to put on an extra nut where there is continued trouble—the two will stand a lot of shaking. Go over all machines, some wet day and tighten everything that ought to be tight. But if you will fail to have wet days, then do it before starting to work. It will surely pay, for, even if no permanent damage is done, there is great loss of time when one must stop in the middle of a field and chase his shadow half a mile for a bolt. Another case in point: A wagon just coming out of its newness was neglected until one day a solid hour was needed to replace lost nuts and bolts. Ten minutes would have done the work earlier. Little and often is a good rule in oiling. I think more farmers are more careful in this direction than in watching the nuts. Windmills, however, are liable to suffer, simply because they are so high headed. Don't let them squeak—it's harder on your pocket book and still harder on your neighbor's nerves. Flows on being put away, should have their shares and shovels carefully smeared with axle grease or a good heavy oil. Coal oil will not answer; though it is good to cut rust it will not prevent it. Paint is a paying protection on both wood and metal parts, for it can be had cheaply and is easily applied by anyone. Two years ago the writer purchased for five dollars a second hand breaking plow. The share was very rusty and the original paint was gone entirely. We finally persuaded it to "scour," gave it a good coat of paint, used it a year, and sold it through the same man for seven dollars. One may not always wish to sell, but I believe it pays to paint just the same. Last, but by no means least, give all machinery the kindest of care as regards shelter. It is really surprising to see tools standing outdoors, so sel- evident are the results. If you have little room, take the larger implements somewhat to pieces, and in that way quite a lot of machinery may be stored in a small space. Then, as you value your self respect, don't allow the chickens to roost over any tool. If no space is available, it will pay to build a cheap shed rather than let things go without shelter. Finally, treat each piece of machinery as a special friend, and your reward, in dollars and cents as well as in satisfaction, shall be in accord therewith—H. T. M. in the Indiana Farmer. A New Farm Crop. Four years ago I bought a two ounce package of a new grain called speltz. I afterwards learned that its true name was emmer. I knew nothing about it and sowed it about the 25th of May, by which time it should have been a foot high. It made a small shock and it stood out in rainy weather and fell down, and while it probably would have made a peck of seed it was so damaged that I threw it to the hogs. "The plant resembles barley, with a larger grain and somewhat larger head. I did not think it would be worth while to grow it, but the next year I read something about it and found it was identical in name with emmer, which was largely grown in the Northwest and is taking a prominent place as a money crop. The following year I sowed a bushel of it and it yielded at the rate of forty-four bushels to the acre. I raised enough of it to test it as food for horses, cattle and poultry. It grows better with oats and, ground and mixed with an equal bulk of bran or corn and cobmeal, it seems to give as good results either for laying on flesh or for milk for dairy cows; and, mixed half and half with oats, was found an admirable food for horses. The third year's crop was fifty-three bushels to the acre, and I grew several acres; but my crop for 1905, sown on very thin land, made a lighter yield than before, but still it thrashed out over thirty bushels to the acre, and, as it weighs eight pounds heavier than oats to the bushel this can be added to the yield when we estimate the amount of feed it will produce. The crop is one adapted to the semiarid lands, and is not as likely to be cut down in the yield as oats by a dry spring. It has the hardy properties of oats and can be sown just as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring and can be harvested at the same time as oats. I have sown oats and emmer on the same day every spring that I have grown the emmer, and they are harvested at the same time. We sow at the rate of two bushels to the acre and think, it a better crop to sow clover with than oats, as it does not shade the ground as much. In my judgment, it is one of the best and cheapest poultry foods that can be grown, and, either soaked in hot water for twelve hours or ground and mixed with corn, it is a cheap and excellent food. From my somewhat limited experience with it, I would say it is a crop well worth growing by farmers generally. If soaked it can also be fed to young pligs and brood sows. The grain of oats being much smaller than emmer, and the first that I planted having been mixed slightly with oats, I find the proportion of oats has increased ever since, so that now it is perhaps 10 percent oats. While this does not hurt it for feeding or reduce the yield materially, it is a disadvantage when grown for seed. Even with this mixed emmer and oats it would take but a short time to pull the oats out of the shocks where seed was to be saved, and I shall do this another year in order to get a pure stock of seed. The straw from emmer is fully equal to barley straw, being soft and bright, and it is eaten readily by stock. One disadvantage of feeding the straw, however, is that there is such a large proportion of beards in it that it sometimes makes' the horses' mouths sore, and we cannot separate the beards as easily with the machine now used with blowers as we could with the old machines. I have not made any test of the feeding value of emmer which would enable me to speak positively in regard to it as compared with other grain, but in corresponding with a manufacturer of oatmeal I find that oats give 50 to 55 percent of grain when hulled, while emmer gives 78 percent, there being two distinct grains in each hull. This can be readily discovered by rubbing out a few heads of each in the hands. In running our emmer through the fanning mill we get out bushels of almost pure hulled grain—Waldo F.

Although Japan has revealed herself as highly enlightened in so many spheres of civilization, she has not yet applied reformatory principles to the institution of marriage. There is as yet no such thing in Japan as equality between sexes. The law relating to marriage recognizes no wrongs except on the part of the wife, from whom the husband may obtain a divorce by merely asserting that he is tired of her, or upon any of the following grounds: Disobedience, adultery, harrenness, jealously, physical antipathy, talkativeness or theft. When a girl is about to marry, her mother impresses upon her various rules of conduct to be followed during her wedded life. Some of these are: "Be always amiable to your mother-in-law and father-in-law." "Don't talk much. "Get up early, go to bed late, and never sleep in the afternoon. "Until you are fifty, never mix in crowds. "Do not consult fortune tellers. "Do not wear light clothes. "Be humble and polite. "Never allow yourself to be jealous, "Even if your husband is in the wrong never get angry. "Never speak evil of your neighbors. "Strict obedience to a husband is a wife's noblest virtue."—Harper's Weekly. An Albany Hen. North Albany has the most accommodating hen on record. A certain boarding house proprietress in that enterprising section of the city has introduced a novelty into the fresh egg market. She has a hen which is so well trained that it lays an egg "while you wait." This is the modus operandi, vouched for by a man of undoubted veracity. "The hen comes to the back door of the house every morning and cackles until the door is opened for it. The housewife invariably gives the hen a bit of green stuff, such as cabbage or lettuce, as a tidbit. Then she shows the fowl an egg, after which she puts it into the wood box. The hen goes over to the box, looks in and makes a great fuss before jumping in. In the course of a short time she adds to the stock of eggs by leaving a duplicate of the one placed in the box by the housewife. Biddy then goes to the door and cackles to have the door opened. With a nice little bow the accommodating fowl sedately walks away, apparently satisfied that she has accomplished her mission. This little scene is enacted regularly every morning, and up to date has lasted for three weeks."—Albany Journal. INTERPRETED.

GRAND TO LIVE And the Last Laugh is Always the Best "Six months ago I would have laughed at the idea that there could be anything better for a table beverage than coffee," writes an Ohio woman—"now I laugh to know there is. "Since childhood I drank coffee as freely as any other member of the family. The result was a puny, slicky girl, and as I grew into womanhood I did not gain in health, but was afflicted with heart trouble, a weak and disordered stomach, wrecked nerves and a general breaking down, till last winter at the age of 38 I seemed to be on the verge of consumpition. My friends greeted me with 'How bad you look! What a terrible color!' and this was not very comforting. "The doctors, and patent medicines did me absolutely no. good. I was thoroughly discouraged. "Then I gave up coffee and commenced Postum Food Coffee. At first I didn't like it, but after a few trials and following the directions exactly, it was grand. It was refreshing and satisfying. In a couple of weeks I noticed a great change. I became stronger, my brain grew clearer, I was not troubled with forgetfulness as in coffee times, my power of endurance was more than doubled. The heart trouble and indigestion disappeared and my nerves became steady and strong. "I began to take an interest in things about me. Housework and home-making became a pleasure. My friends have marveled at the change and when they enquire what brought it about, I answer 'Postum Food Coffee, and nothing else in the world.'" Name given by Postum Co. Battle Greek Mich.

Some people speak ill of others and then wonder why fault is found. Consideration granted through cabolery rarely has a firm foundation. Ideas are worth just as much as can be worked out of them and no more. It is a waste of time to argue over an order which comes from headquarters. The faculty of seeing things through self-interest comes without much practice. Attainments of any sort do not come without something in the nature of toll. When leisure becomes burdensome a turn should be made without hesitation. There is always a way to manage a stubborn person without resorting to force. Courage of attacking difficulties, patient concentration of the attention, perseverance through failure—these are characteristics which after-life specially requires.-Herbert Spencer. Religion is nothing but love-perfect love toward God and toward man—without formality, without hypocrisy, without partiality; depending on no outward form to preserve its vitality or prove its existence.-Wm. Lloyd Garrison. We must not forget that if earthly love has in the vulgar mind been degraded into mere animal passion, it still remains in its purest sense the highest mystery of our existence, the most perfect blessing and delight on earth, and at the same time the truest pledge of our more than human nature.—Max Mueller. LITTLE LAW IN THESE COURTS. It is a good thing that justice, like charity, is long lived, for if it were not it could never stand its stormy and perilous trips through many of the Justice of the Peace courts of Kansas. As it is 'the justice courts are more often made only the preliminary hearing place from which appeals can be taken to the district courts rather than used to arrive at definite decisions. The country justice is generally a farmer known for his sterling honesty and courage. He does not need to know any law and it is not supposed to. The opposing attorneys are always glad to tell him what the law is. He hears both sides and invariably decides in favor of what he thinks is right rather than what the law may be. This leads often to amusing situations, for frequently the opinion of the Justice of the Peace and that of the Supreme Court do not coincide. At a trial here a few days ago some amusing features developed. After some trivial question of law had been argued, so long that the Justice of the Peace had become thoroughly weary of it, he arose in all his dignity and announced: "Now, may it please the court, I'm going to decide this question in Jones' favor." Of course his use of the flattering references of the lawyers to himself was the signal for laughter. Then when it was time for supper he forgot himself again and gravely charged the jury "not to talk to each other about this case after you separate." The constables of these courts are also frequently chosen without regard to their minute knowledge of the law. At a trial in Chautauqua county a short time ago the jury sent its foreman to the door of the schoolhouse and called for the Justice and the Constable of his court. The crowd gathered at the window outside the building and thought that its long hours of waiting were to be rewarded at last with a verdict. But the jury wanted only information. The justice had given the instructions from both lawyers to the jury and it was laboring between exactly opposite theories. The Justice had already shown a slight prejudice in the case by saying to one of the lawyers that "if the law is against us, we'll have to stand it, I guess." Hearing this, the constable considered it no infringement of the law if he also "took sides." So when the jury wanted the instructions explained, the Justice took those given by the lawyer who was his friend and the constable took the others. An extended argument between the Justice and his constable concerning the law and merits of the case followed, with the jury as an audience, while the crowd outside cheered whenever a sledgehammer blow of court oratory would rattle its way out through the windows into the chilly night alr. About 2 A.M. the jury decided to disagree and the countrymen dispersed, while the opposing lawyers rode back to town together.—Kansas City Times, A Bas Mademoiselle! Parisian women have formed a league for the purpose of obliterating the invidious distinction of title between the married and unmarried of their sex. Why, they righteously demand, if every man, married or unmarried, is Monsieur should not every woman, wife or maid be Madame? "A bas mademoiselle," is to be their battle cry. It is all very well for French women to take part in this grand movement, but how are our American sisters to overcome the difficulty confronting them? We cannot believe that our maldens fair and otherwise are ready to drop the Miss and adopt the Mrs. If the change of title is to be effected without the present gratifying ceremony—Chicago Record-Herald. pee - NY a OO no other element of wealth can erable “STOPS BELCHING, 4 7 {HE PULPIT. us to say, “Therefore can I lack noth- oes vf ze =r <_ . — ing.” Try the experiment with which | Cares nad Nreath—Positlve and Instant - ‘ Neath, 7 p we are most familiar as a world power, Care Free=No Dract=Cures aay om a.

Bishop Seymour was the preacher Sunday soruing. He chose for bis subject. “My ,Slepherd,” and is text was Psalin 1:23: “The Lord is my shepherd; therefore I can lack nothing,” he said: ‘We pass from the brightness of Ciitistmas and Epipbany to the gea- son of Lent that closes with the dark- ness of Good Friday. Ere we bid Epiphany goodby let us consider what it tells us, namely, that our Saviour, came to be the Saviour of all mankind. Epiphany falls iuto two divisions: The Christmas of the Jew and the Christ- mas of the Gentile. First, the Christ- mas of the Jew, when the shepherds came as the representatives of “the shepherd nation: came called on by An angel through whose dispensation the law was giver to the Jew: ¢ame to the manger; came to worship. And then the Gentile Christmas, called Epiphany, when the kings were led by the star to worship the ebild. And then the fact that the Jew and the Gentile alike fell down and worshiped the little child, a baby, weaker than the weakest, I may say, of all the young, and yet-Him by whom the ‘Worlds were made. It is indeed a won- derfut spectacle to see the Jew and the Gentile allke worshiping the babe. We leiive-the angelic host that sang over Bethlehem anil .se brightness of the star which brought the three kings =at all events the kings of the East worshiped the little babe“with appro- priate gifts—for the transition period of Tent. Could I do better than ask you, with myself, to consider our personal re- spousibility in the words of the text: “The Lord is my shepherd; therefore can I lack nothing?” Here is a dec- Jaration which may make or not. as we thooze, for the possessive pronoun is intensive—“my,” as though it were something that we-loved. as jewels of earth—"thoy are mine; I own them.” So: “The Lord is my shepherd.” and based upon that declaration is the fact; “therefore can I lack nothing.” ‘There is no word which more frequent- iy falls from our Nps than “I.” It is the shortest word in kuman speech— a single letter—because it brings to the surface personality. Go whither you will, onvevery side you will hear men, women and ebild-utteriag “I.” *E" is to each one the centre of the universes everything radiates from it and everything comes into it, And this -is rixht in its way, ouly sometimes ft is exazgerated and’ we have what we call settishuess.

Ihave been with soine of the wealthfest men that the last generation knew. I have seen them in the hour of death and as they died the bonds and stocks of wealth fell down and passed hands.

NXIOUSFORCONFERENCE Mitchell Sends Letter to Baer With Request for Further Parley—Sets Forth Grievances of the Miners. President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America has mailed to George F. Baer, chairman of the anthracite coal operators' committee, his reply to the committee's communication rejecting the demands of the miners' organization. The letter, in part, is as follows: "Indianapolis, Ind., March 17, 1906. Mr. George F. Baer, Chairman, Philadelphia.—Dear Sir: Referring again to your communication dated March 10, with accompanying documents, and to our reply thereto, I write to say that I have submitted to our committee the answer made by your committee to the propositions presented by us. "It is unnecessary to state, that we were keenly disappointed to learn that our demands were rejected in toto, and that our arguments in favor of them had received so little consideration at your hands that they were practically ignored in your reply to us. "We have again reviewed the scale presented for your consideration; have compared it with the scale of wages paid for similar classes of labor in other coal producing states and districts, and we are satisfied beyond the peradventure of doubt that the wages proposed are not in excess of—indeed that they are not as high as wages paid in the bituminous-mining district of our country. "Judging from the language employed in your answer to us, it is perfectly evident that we failed to make clear or that you failed to understand the real import of the propositions submitted by us. "We wish to assure you that we are not unmindful of the great public interests involved in this controversy as to our future relations, neither are we unappreciative of the splendid efforts made by the anthracite coal strike commission to establish a relationship between us that would insure a just and permanent peace; but, if you will refer to the award, you will find that the commission was in some doubt as to the permanency of its findings and expressed the hope that at the expiration of the award the relations of employer and employee would have so far improved as to make impossible such a condition as existed throughout the country in consequence of the strike in the anthracite region. "We had entertained the hope that our adherence to the letter and the spirit of the award and the absence of local or general strikes in the past three years would have appealed more strongly to your confidence, and that we might reasonably expect serious consideration of our claims at this time. While it may be true that, on the part of the operators, there has been no serious cause for complaint during the past three years, we wish to assure you that, in expressing this opinion, you do not reflect our views. Not only has there been criticism among the miners, but what is more important, there exists much cause for criticism and complaints. However, we repeat that the interests involved are so vast that we are not willing to break off negotiations, without first making further effort to reconcile our differences. We, therefore, propose that further conference or conferences be held between now and April 1. "If this suggestion meets with your approval, we shall be pleased to arrange with you a date upon which our joint committee may reconvene. I am yours truly, "JOHN MITCHELL, Chairman." COUNT WITTE ASKS RELEASE. Tenders Resignation on Account of Attack of Heart Disease. A St. Petersburg special says: It is rumored in official circles that at a session of the council of the empire Monday Premier Witte tendered his resignation and suggested that Privy Councillor Kokovsoff, former minister of finance, be appointed as his successor. The reason Count Witte gave for his resignation was that he is seriously ill with heart disease. GEORGIA PEACH IS NIPPED. Cold Snap Damaged Crop from Fifty to Seventy-five Per Cent: Reports which have been received from almost every section of the fruit belts of Georgia indicate that the peach crop has been seriously damaged by the freezing weather and killing frost of Tuesday night. Although no official statement can be made at present, a conservative estimate of the damage is placed at from 50 to 75 per cent of the crop. Many Quit Work In Chattanooga Because of Lynching of Ed Johnson. Race Riot Narrowly, Averted. At. Chattanooga Tuesday nearly 1,000 negroes stopped work in several of the large industrial plants and stood around in groups talking. The women servants have in many cases left their employment and are more sullen and angry than the men. The trouble arose over the lynching of Ed Johnson, a negro convicted of assault, whose case had been appealed to the supreme court of the United States. Law and order won a signal victory in the city Tuesday night when a squad of less than 100 policemen backed by four companies of militia, held a large crowd of negroes, variously estimated from 2,000 to 4,000 in number, in check; preserved peace; and prevented a riot, which might have resulted in a great loss of life. With the exception of a small fusilade of shots on East Ninth street, in which two white men were shot, and the burning of a house on West Ninth street, there was no further disorder. Up to midnight the following injured had been reported: John Curtis, a railway man, shot in shoulders by unknown negro. Dick Light, deputy sheriff, shot in hand by unknown negroes. A report from Washington says that the United States supreme court, in whose custody the Johnson case has been placed, will take the matter up, and that secret service men will be sent to Chattanooga to arrest the members of the mob. Considerable apprehension is felt. Governor Cox's Statement. Governor Cox of Tennessee was intercepted by telephone Tuesday while he was en route to Spring Creek, where he had an appointment to speak, and asked concerning the lynching of Johnson. It was the first news the governor had received concerning the matter. He greatly deplored the affair, and said he was confident no lynching would have occurred had the case not been taken from Tennessee courts to the federal courts. He was not prepared to say what action he would take in the matter. COUPE EFFECTED BY CLAY. Georgia Senator Saves Uncle Sam $340,000 by Timely Action. Senator Clay of Georgia saved the government $310,000 at one stroke in the senate Thursday. When the fortifications appropriation bill was under consideration in the senate, Senator Lodge led the fight against a provision that no part of $600,000 appropriated for fortifications in Hawaii and the Philippines should be,expended at the naval station of Olongapo or Subig Bay. He claimed that this was an evident effort to divert the expenditure from Subig Bay to Cavite. Finally Senator Teller moved to strike all reference to the Philippines in the item and this carried, the effect being to appropriate the whole $600,000 to Hawaii. The item was sliding through in this shape when Senator Clay came to the front with a motion to cut the item from $600,000 to $260,000. The Georgia senator produced the estimate of the war department showing the needs of Hawaii to be fully covered by the $260,000 and insisted that the appropriation bill be cut to that figure. Finally, this was done, the result being a saving of $360,000 to the government. In less than twenty minutes time the senate voted away $140,000,000 of the public funds. The sum is carried by the pension appropriation bill, which being a brief document was made the subject of very little discussion. The railroad rate bill was laid aside for the day, and the major portion of the time was devoted to the consideration of the fortifications appropriation bill. TO REFUND CAMPAIGN CASH. Trustees of New York Life Agree to Pay Sum of $148,000. The New York World says: At a conference in the office of a downtown lawyer, it was agreed that the trustees of the New York Life Insurance company who were members of the finance committee during the presidential campaigns of 1896, 1900 and 1901, and were cognizant of the political contributions made by the New York Life, should reimburse the company to the extent of $148,000.
