MADE RAID ON JAIL
Two Men Shot by Members of Mob in Mobile, Ala.
Charge Was Criminal Assault and Prisoner Had Been Jailed Else. where—Mob Doubted the Sheriff's Statement.
Tuesday night, at Mobile, Ala., Roy Hoyle, special officer of the Mobile and Ohio railroad, and one of the most widely known and best liked men in the vicinity, was fatally shot, and Alderman Sidney Lyons, chairman of the city council, was slightly wounded in the hand during a fight at the county jail between deputy sheriffs and a crowd of men, determined to capture Dick Robinson, a young negro.
The negro, who is only 17 years of age, and was said to be wearing his first pair of long trousers, attacked Ruth, the 12-year-old daughter of Blount Sossaman, who lives about three miles from Mobile. Detectives were placed on the track of the negro, and within three hours he was captured.
He was not taken to the jail at all and was at least eight miles from the city when the mob determined to have him approached the building.
As early as 6 o'clock in the evening crowds of men commenced to gather in the downtown streets and by 6:30 five hundred men had formed.
Sheriff Powers met the leaders of the mob and informed them that the man they were seeking was not in the jail and had never been brought there. He offered to let anybody whom he personally knew pass through the jail to satisfy the crowd of the truth of his statement. About forty men walked through the corridors and some of them returned and assured the members of the mob that the man was not there.
While several men, including Hoyle and Lyons, were still in the jail a portion of the crowd led by a tall, raw-boned man, whose name is not known, seized a telephone pole, which had been blown down in the recent storm, and dashed it against the closed part of a double-door, one-half of which was open. The door fell with a crash and almost instantly a shot came from a revolver in the hands of a man standing in the gate.
At once the members of the mob commenced a fusillade and about a dozen revolver shots were fired. Not more than a dozen men took part in the firing, and as the shots rang out there was a stampede on the part of the crowd for shelter.
The mob was widely scattered, and in a few seconds Alderman Lyons, who had been en the inside of the jail, came out, and holding up his hand, from which the blood was streaming, announced that he had been shot, and that Roy Hoyle had received a bullet in the left lung. There were loud calls for a physician, and one who was in the crowd hastened to the jail, who, coming out in a few minutes, informed the crowd that Hoyle could live but a very short time. Hoyle has been exceptionally popular, and the fact that he had been shot while looking through the jail in order to ascertain if the negro; was there took all the fight out the mob and for the most part it dispersed quietly.

DRUGGISTS IN SESSION.
Annual Session Begun In Atlanta With Delegates from Every Section of Union In Attendance.
The National Association of Retail Druggists began their annual session in Atlanta Tuesday morning with a record-breaking attendance of delegates from every section of the union. The association got·down to real hard work and the great bulk of the preliminary routine was disposed of. The business sessions, both morning and afternoon, were given over to the reading of reports of various officers and committees. One of the most important of these reports was that of Secretary Wooten, who carefully went into the details of the work of the past year and suggested many things for the betterment of the association. He touched on the direct serial contract·plan at some length and explained wherein it would do great good to individual druggists and it was urged that owners of proprietary medicines be informed of the stand that would be taken.
President Breslin's address, as was also that of the chairman on legislation, was excellent. President Breslin, in his address, referred in glowing terms to the city of Atlanta, and paid an eloquent tribute to the late Henry Grady. The work of the association was then briefly reviewed and defended against. A charge of the United States attorney that the association was a trust. In part he said:
"It is charged by the attorney general of the United States that the members of this association are members of a trust. Most of us have always associated the word 'trust' with the possession of enormous wealth. We have been accustomed to think of the beneficiaries of trusts as spending most of their time in traveling in private cars or automobiles, lavishing their wealth on $10,000 banquets and Monte Carlo gambling diversions, their only labor being the clipping of coupons off of bonds or signing receipts for fat dividends.
It is usually understood that while trust magnates are not addicted to labor of any sort, they do a great deal of scheming and the main purpose of this scheming is to smash the humble competitor who is trying to make a living by the sweat of his brow. Are there any such bloated bondholders in the ranks of the N. A. R. D.? Have you ever heard of one there?
"This is a fairly representative body. It stands for the hopes, the aspirations, the very life of forty-seven thousand business men and their dependent families. How many of this vast army of druggists you represent make more than a comfortable living? I venture not more than one in a hundred; and yet here is the attorney general of the United States engaged in an effort which, if successful, will drive many a poor man to the wall and possibly put him out of business. Far be it from me to impugn the attorney general's motives. He has doubtless been spurred on by some of the powerful interests to which I have already referred."
LITTLE TOWN OBLITERATED.
Belated Report of Tragedy Wrought by Gulf Coast Storm.
With the exception of the report of the loss of two entire families there were no new developments in the situation at Pensacola Tuesday. Charles Mann, who had his fish business at Caswell, Ala., swept away, reached the city and reported that Shell Banks, Ala., a town on Perdido Bay, in Baldwin county, had been swept from the earth and that he learned before leaving that two families had been lost.
COTTON GREATLY DAMAGE
Loss in Mississippi and Texas Will Be 25-to 50 Per cent. Walter Clark, president of the Mississippi division of the association, states that the cotton crop in Mississippi has been damaged from 25 to 50 per cent. Advices from Texas tell of the same condition of almrs in many sections of that state.
HISTORIC ROUND-HOUSE BURNED.
Property of W. & A. Road to Value
of $150,000. Destructed in Atlanta.
of $150,000 Destroyed in Atlanta. In less than three-quarters of an hour Monday night flames licked up $150,000 in property within one and one-half blocks of the fire department headquarters in Atlanta. The old Western and Atlantic round house and work shops, together with tools and equipment, are a total loss. Eighteen engines, valued at an average of $8,000 each, were damaged at approximately $5,000 each, and 250 men are indefinitely thrown out of employment.
SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1906:
MOBILE IS HIT HARD
The Alabama City Almost Wrecked by Hurricane.
LOSS REACHES MILLIONS
Further Advices from Pensacola Only Add to Horror of Situation There. Wreck, Ruln and Devattation
Between seventy-five and one hundred lives lost, fully two score vessels driven ashore or wrecked in vardous parts of the gulf of Mexico, damage amounting $4,500,000 in the city of Mobile, Ala, and to the extent of millions or more at outside points is the record of the storm which swept over Mobile on Wednesday and Wednesday night. No accurate estimate of the number of casualties can be made 'as yet, and it is doubtful if it will be known for a week or more.
Grave apprehension exists regarding the situation at Guliport and Biloxi, Miss., where it is believed that many lips have been lost. Reports from those places are, however, meager and unsatisfactory. It is declared by the local municipal officials that no lives have been lost in the city of Mobile, but that all of the deaths have occurred in places within a radius of 50 miles of the place.
The storm struck Mobile Wednesday night at midnight and raged for many hours, the wind reaching a velocity of ninety miles an hour. Water from Mobile Bay was blown into the city by the gale, and for a time stood seven feet deep in the wholesale quarter from Royal street to the Alabama river.
Mobile's shipping suffered more than anything else. Many of her river boats now are beached or sunken; all complete wrecks. Her docks and those of private corporations are fearfully torn up. The revenue cutter Alert went down in Mobile river. She was rammed by some unknown vessel and sank immediately. Her crew is believed to have all escaped.
The city is put under martial law at dark, and no person allowed to enter the wholesale business, districts. The city authorities were quick to act, and, therefore, no disturbances of any sort resulted.
The wharves from Frascati, the extreme south end of the city, as far up the river as Three-Mile creek, are total wrecks.
This also includes the new Mobile and Ohlo docks and the Louisville and Nashville docks. Much fear is entertained for Fort Morgan, Ala., where the government quarantine station is located and many soldiers quartered.
FEAREUL AT PENSACOLA.
Further dispatches from Pensacola, Fla., say that the city presents a wrecked appearance and the damage is estimated at $5,600,000. The loss of life will be heavy among the mariners. It is the conservative opinion that not less than 25 persons perished, though in the chaos existing it is impossible to verify anything.
Commencing at 7 o'clock Thursday night the wind blew at 50 miles for three hours, then increased to 65. From that time until 5 o'clock it re-From that time until 5 o'clock it re-Tides from the bay backed into the city for blocks, destroying homes and making rivers out of the streets. When the gale was at its highest Friday morning and women and children were running frantic about the streets in darkness, the alarm of fire was sounded and this added to the confusion. With the tin roofs flying about them, trees and wires falling over them, the firemen took their hose wagons by hand and after hours of work controlled the blaze.
Friday afternoon the water front and business district presented a horrible scene.
Before the storm fifty or sixty big steamers and sailing vessels were lying in the harbor, and only five or six are there now. They were driven ashore, and along the water front is a mass of wreckage of steamers, tow boats, launches and sailing craft of all descriptions. Thirty fishing vessels in port have been destroyed or damaged, and the three big fish houses, with their wharfs, are gone. Muscogee wharf and the Commandancia and Tarragosa wharves of the Louisville and Nashville railroad are badly damaged. Great iron ships of two and three thousand tons have been driven not only ashore, but have gone through houses a block from the water front.
Every house along the water front for a distance of ten miles has been destroyed, and the wohder is that the loss of life is not greater.
DEATH LISTS COMING IN.
Fatalities of Hurricane In Mobile and Pensacola Being Made Known by Belated Dispatches.
Latest reports from the Gulf coast points visited by the West Indian hurricane show that the first news was not evaggerated.
Sunday was a day of funerals in Mobile, Ala., bodies of many of the victims being brought to the city for interment.
All along the south coast and the west shore, reports are that bodies of the victims are being buried and that thousands of visitors are to be found all along the coast.
The number of casualties in the great storm is slowly increasing, as messages are received from places which have heretofore been inaccessible. The total Sunday night of the known dead was 75. This number was brought up to a certainty of 79, and a possibility of 102 by the reports which reached Mobile during the night and early Monday. Four bodies not before counted were found at Coden, and it is estimated that 23 lvcs have been lost from the oyster fleet around Codar point.
This last estimate is not known to be accurate, and is probably somewhat exaggerated, for the reason that H includes among the dead every man aboard a fishing boat who has not been heard of since the storm.
THIRTY KNOWN DEAD.
While much was known and considerable surmised previously as to the death and destruction by the hurricane, the full extent of the terrible blow to Pensacola and surrounding territory is now just being realized, as reports reach the city from small towns and settlements along the bayou and on Santa Rosa Island, bringing news of disasters. Sunday brought forth four more deaths and many tales of suffering from exposure and starvation. There are known to be thirty dead, and reports from outlying districts indicate that the death list will reach seventy-five.
Looters followed in the wake of the hurricane and fifty extra policemen are on guard in the city. Calls for charity have been issued to assist the poor and everything has been done to relieve the 2000 homeless. Santa Rosa quarantine station, across the bay from the city, has been demolished. There were eight-seamen in the hospital there from a British steamer. The hospital building was carried away. The eight men clung to the roof. Five were washed upon the shore, after a night of terror upon the bay. Three were drowned, with two nurses. The United States naval station has been destroyed. Fort Pickens, one of the most modern forts of the country, has been badly damaged.
The Fifteenth Company of Artillery deserted barracks and post with their families and sought the batteries, climbing to the highest point and lashing themselves to the guns and projecting pieces. Fort McRae, on the point opposite Fort Pickens, has been wiped out almost completely. Fourteen foreign vessels are beached, many tug boats, lighters and fishing vessels are either sunk or beached.
CANNOT SOLICIT PENSIONS.
General Order to That Effect Issued by War Department.
A general order just promulgated by the war department positively prohibits the soliciting of pension or other claims against the United States on military reservations or at military posts, camps or stations and commanding officers are instructed to take such steps as will prevent such solicitation. Men who give pension seekers any information regarding such claims will lay themselves liable to courtpartial.
Japanese Tobacco Prohibition.
The postal administration of Japan has advised this government that packages containing tobacco destined for any country beyond Japan, are prohibited from passing over the territory of Japan even if sent by parcels post.
DIAMOND-BEDECKED NEGROES
Held at Pulaski, Va, on Charge of Robbing Philadelphia Woman. Marshall Parker, colored, and his mulatto wife, who goes by the name of Lille Russell-Brown, Butler-Parker, are under arrest at Pulaski, Va., on the charge of theft. The couple hall jewelry on their persons to the value of $10,600 and Parker had $400 in money. They are wanted in Philadelphia, where, it is alleged, the woman robbed the home of Mrs. Mary Tatem, who resides at 2052 North Park avenue, that city.
APPROVAL OF CUBA
Given Action of Uncle Sam at Great Gathering.
The Scene Was Enacted in Auditorium of Havana University—Provisional Governor Gives Some
Sound Advice.
The presence of the secretary of war of the United States in Havana and his assumption of the government of Cuba was unreservedly and enthusiastically approved Monday by the highest intellectual, social and business elements of the capital.
The scene was enacted in the auditorium of the university and the audience, in addition to seventy-five students, who, according to the local custom, are graduated at the beginning instead of the close of the college year, consisted of seven hundred people divided equally between men and women.
The welcome accorded to Governor Taft and Assistant Secretary of State Bacon was unexpectedly vigorous and spontaneous. It began from the moment of their arrival and increased as the governor uttered sentiments regarding the American occupation, which found an answering response in the hearts of all present. Messrs. Taft and Bacon were deeply impressed and encouraged by the evidence that the provisional government would receive the best aid of the leading Cubans. Secretary Taft's address at the university, in part, is as follows:
"The members of the Latin race are accustomed and not without reason to characterize us Anglo-Saxons as abrupt and conceived in our view of our power of pushing civilization, but those of us who have come closer to Spanish civilization have been impressed with the consciousness that the Anglo-Saxons have much to learn from the intellectual refinement, artistic temperament, poetic imagery, high ideals and courtesy of the Latin and Spanish races, Spain has exerted a tremendous force in civilization in progress, but nations, like men, suffer reaction. Great public works were being erected to testify by Spain to her patience and enterprise when we Anglo-Saxois were struggling with less pretentious things. But the civilization of Spain and all her institutions were founded on the idea of the control of the state by one man or a few men and because in the development of that idea we have the advantage of 200 years education in self-government, we unreasonably plume ourselves with superiority in the knowledge of government which only circumstances have given us.
"It is saddening to me to be called to Cuba and still sadder to President Roosevelt, who is so identified with her liberation that we are here at the time of a stumble in Cuba's progress toward popular government, but it has given us an opportunity to assure you in the name of the president and the American people that we are here only to help you. With our arm under your arm, we are lifting you again on the path of that wonderful progress you have traveled. We shall, I am confident, be able to point with pride to the fact that the United States is not an exploiting nation, but that she has such deep sympathy with the progress of popular government as to be willing to expend her blood and treasure in making the spread of such government in the world successful."
COUNTERFEITING COIN IN PEN.
Spurious Stuff Made Within Walls of Missouri Prison Officers of the Missouri pentitentiary at Jefferson City assert they are on the track of a counterfeiter's plant supposed to be in operation within the prison walls. Counterfeit quarters have been found in circulation among the convicts.
TEXT-BOOK OF LABOR HOST.
Congressional Campaign Pamphlet Issued by Federation.
The American Federation of Labor has issued its political text-book for the pending congressional campaign. The publication is a pamphlet of thirty-eight pages and consists of a republication of "labor's bill of grievances" of last March; an explanation of the origin and purpose of the federation; a history of the use of the power of injunction in the United States courts; an explanation of the eighth-hour law, and a dissertation on convict labor.
First Part of Expeditionary Force to be Sent From New York-Others to Await Developments.
A Washington special says: American troops new are moving toward Cuba. Mobilization of the force will be at Newport News, Va. for the most part, although a part of the first expeditionary force will be sent from New York and Tampa, Fla. Advices received at the departments and the military and the establishment of the government Sunday indicated that all is quiet in Cuba, and that the insurgents intend to lay down their arms. The probability is that United States forces in the island will be landed as a precautionary measure. So far as Washington officials are advised, no trouble of a serious kind is expected, but in accordance with instructions from President Roosevelt hurried preparations are being made for the sending of an expeditionary force of the army to Cuba.
Meanwhile the bluejackets and marines from the ships already in Cuban waters will protect American interests and support Taft, the provisional governor, in the preservation of order and the protection of life and property.
How long intervention may continue, it is impossible to forget. The nature of the intervention and the preparations for it indicate a supervision of Cuban affairs on the part of the American government, for an indefinite period. Arrangements have been concluded not only for the first expeditionary force to Cuba of about 5,600 men, but for a second force of equal numbers. No orders for the mobilization of the second force, of course, have been issued, and if the men are needed, all arrangements have been completed for hurrying them to Cuba at the earliest possible moment.
The work of disposing peacefully of the revolutionary forces in arms against the Cuban government is already practically under way, Brigadier General Frederick Funston, chairman of the disarmament commission, had two amicable conferences in Havana Sunday with Generals Pino Guerra and Del Castillo, and arranged a program perfectly satisfactory to all concerned. In fact, General Funston said after the conference that the windup would be so smooth and rapid that it would take much less time than had been expected.
The first landing of any considerable number of Americans took place in Havana Sunday night when 450 marines went ashore from the squadron in the harbor. This force proceeded for Clenfuegos at 9 o'clock Sunday evening on a special train. It was explained that this movement was not made on account of any actual trouble in Clenfuegos, but for the purpose of exerting a calming influence on the local situation, which contains some possibility of a conflict by reason of the tense feeling existing between the government volunteers and the insurgents.
Sunday at the palace passed quietly and rather gloomily. There were no signs of Secretary Taft's actual occupation of that edifice which was the scene of a number of farewells by Palma and his family. The members of the diplomatic corps and the foreign consuls called in a body to say goodbye.
STENSLAND'S PALS ARE SPOTTED
Law Is After All Persons Who Shared Lost of Wrecked Bank.
A Chicago dispatch says: With Paul O. Stensland lodged in a cell at the Joliet penitentiary, State's Attorney Healy has begun to get others in the meshes of the law. A number of persons are trembling as a result of Healy's statements that Stensland made a fall and complete confession and that he also furnished the names of every person who shared in the loot of the Milwaukee Avenue State Bank
Fearful that a huge bomb is about to burst, the guilty ones were reported as preparing to leave the city. They, however, are under surveillance of detectives.
PASSENGER COACH SMASHED
Two Persons Killed and Thirty Hurt in Rear-End Collision.
Two persons were killed, several morq may die and thirty were injured in a frightful rear-vehicle collision of passenger trains on the New York division of the Pennsylvania railroad at Eddington, Pa. 19 miles north of Philadelphia Saturday. It is stated by passengers that the Long Brancon express, bound for Philadelphia, had stopped to cool a hot box, and while the train crew were at work on the journal the express train thundered around a curve and crashed into it.

At Savannah close connection is made for all EASTERN POINTS, Richmond, Washington, New York and with Coastwise Steamships for Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York and Boston.
ROTTEN POTATOES.
The infection of the potatoes with the fungus which produces,rot occurs chiefly, if not entirely, in the field before digging; the infection is usually the result of diseased vines and in most cases the disease is not transmitted directly from the vine, but indirectly through the soil; also, potatoes may be infected directly in the field from spores introduced into the soil the preceding year. Experiments with dry Bordeaux mixture and soluble Bordeaux mixture show that both these are less effective as preventives of blight and subsequent rot than the regular Bordeaux mixture.
HOME-MADE KEROSENE EMULSION.
The amateur can make this very easily. Take of hard soap half a pound and dissolve in one gallon of boiling water; then add two gallons of kerosene and churn thoroughly for ten minutes. The efficiency of the preparation depends upon thorough mixing. This stock mixture is diluted four times for scale or up to twenty times for lice. The stronger dilution will have one gallon of kerosene to six and a half of water. Where the water is very hard,use one gallon of sour milk to two gallons of kerosene.
FURNISHING THE SEWING ROOM. A sewing room should, if possible, be fitted up with all the necessaries of work. It should contain a pier glass, and opposite it one belonging to a chiffonier. There should be a long table, a manikin, a rack, a hamper, sewing machine and baskets for pieces and patterns.

Drought on the Egyptians by Mose:
the Israelite In that long struggle
for freedom. In the simple and tell
ing words of the narrative, “the land
‘was corrupted.”
I do not need to be told that this
fy of Egypt was perhaps not, the
musca domestica, our common house
fy, but some more noxious variety
known to the East. It is enough tc
know that the house fly is found fr
every land and clime, and that it
was quite capable of proving “gre
vious” and “corrupting” on’that oc.
casion. Because of its intimate as.
sociation with man, it {s the onl;
yarlety worth considering in its re-
Tations to health—at least in our
climate, Of 23,087 fifes caught in
dining rooms in the year 1905, 98.8
per cent, were‘ found to be the com:
mon house fly. :
This insect, with its air pump feet
and Its faceted eyes, may be a thing
of beauty to the ‘entomologist; its
drowsy buzzing on the pane has even
Inspired poets; but we may be sure
that_ thé poet sang of some fiy
roused to life in early March by a
day of premature heat. But taken
collectively, and in summer, the fly
is a hateful creature. “Not only is it
responsible for lines of worry in the
housekeeper’s face, but It has been
proved to be a serious menace to
health.
To begin with, its origin and hab-
its are such ss to put us on ‘our
guard. It lays its eggs In excrement,
preferring Horse manure, but if that
does not’ offer readily using any
other. It feeds on the same and on
the sputum of diseased throats and
lungs, on refuse of all kinds, and It
dears.om its hairy feet and legs par-
ticles of these substances.
‘Thanks to the science of bacteriol-
ogy, our case against the fly is no
longer guesswork—it has been made
to walk across the sterile gelatine
plate, and the microscope has later
told us what it fetches and carries.
Unlike the mosquito, the house fly is
not a biter—but it has its own way
of carrying contagion. It deposits,
wherever it goes, disease; and dls-
ease germs may abound in {ts breed-
ing and feeding places. On the joint
of meat exposed for sale by the
Dutcher, on the bread and sweet-
meats of the confectioner’s counter,
on the edge of the milk pall, on the
Kitchen and dining room tables, they
have been found.
To understand fully the possible |
danger of allotiing this insect access
to our food supplies, we must remem-
ber that, in the diseases called en-
terlc—tfose affecting the intestinal
tract, sich as cholera, dysentary and
typhold fever—muititudes of germs
peculidr to the disease are volded
not only during the attack, but for
some days before the disease is rec-
ognized and for'cons{derable periods
of time after recovery, and since the
contagion is spread from person to
another solely by these germs as they
find access to water or food, to guard
the water supply from contamination
and to forbid the sale of milk from
thy dairy farms where any conta-
gion exists is. well recognized as the
rst duty of the Health Board; but
comparatively recent is the knowl-
edge that files also carry the germs
of these diseases.
In 1888 Dr, Nuttall had shown
that files transmitteé cholera. In
1895 Dr. Kober, of Washington, sald
that typhoid fever was spread by
thelr ald in old-fashioned non-sew-
ered dwellings, but not until the
Cudan war, three years later, was
this transmission proved on such a
scale as to convince the medical pro-
fession, It was then that we began
pur real acquaintance with the fy}
nd all bis works.
Not only does the fly carry about
on his feet and legs any disease
germs, but such germs taken into
he body in food are known to re-
main alive in its intestines and also,
‘or days after they are ejected in the
specks. By recent experiments this
2as been proved true of both the tu-
erculosis and the typhoid bacillus,
he-germs in the speck having actu-
ly given the disease from nine to
itteen days after It was deposited.
‘This fs a very important polnt, as
t establishes on new ground the dan-
er of spitting in the street or wher-
ver files can have access to the
putum. A Iull in the efforts to pre-
ent public spitting came on the dis-

the-germs in the speck having actu-
ally given the disease from nine to
fitteen days after it was deposited.
‘This ts a very important point, as
it establishes on new ground the dan-
_ger of spitting in the street or wher-
ever files can have access to the
sputum. A Tull in the efforts to pre-
vent public spitting came on the dis-
covery that tuberculosis germs ex-
posed to direct sunlight must perish
4n from twenty-four to thirty hours,
but since we discovered that the fly,
who greedily feeds on the sputum,
an transport it to considerable dis-
tances and keep it allve and ‘virulent
tor many days, the spitting nuisance
has assumed new importance.
In the average slaugtiter house
both the common and the blow fly
cover the carcasses. In ope case,
after the Isw had required the use
of screens on the windows, the butch-
ers expressed their satisfaction, “be-
cause now they did not have to spend
their time digging out fly blows.” In

was passing as “covered with files.”
Now, if these files had just had ac-
cess to matter infected with typhold
enough colonles could have been
‘started in that good cultyre medium
to cause an epidemic of the disease,
and who but this observer would
have guesed its source.
\ What, then,:1s to be done to pro-
tect our food ‘supply from this dis
gusting and dangerous insect? It
‘will be well to note, first, what has
deen accomplished in the extirpation
of other insect pests.
"A year ago’ New Orleans learned
at heavy cost that if the city was to
be freed from yellow fever the mos-
quito must go; and in the space of a
few months, so vigorous was the
campaign, the now famous stegomia
or yellow fever mosquito was nearly
exterminated, and a price is néw set
on its head. I am informed that
sclentists who went to study the in-
sect .were obliged to leave because
they could find no material.
This result was brought about by
covering thelr breeding places with
kerosene and by the thorough fum!-
gation of houses.
_ Is it, too miuch to hope that in the
sinall town and the farming ’commu-
nity this pest may be somewhat
abated? In France ‘during the past
winter 4 jury of scientific men award-
ed a prize of 10,000 francs to the
author of a memoir which outlined
a method for the use of “residum
oil” in the destruction of the eggs
and larvae of the fly, Two litres of
oll to every square metre of surface
of pit or manure pile was found to
make a protective covering which
killed the larvae and prevented thet
entrance of files and the hatching of
eggs.
Visit in summer any suburb that
is frequented by plenic parties. At
the rear will be found piles of tin
cans, papers and fragments of rotting
food. Here feed swarms of files that
have found thelr breeding ground
further on where the horses were
tied, and these unclean insects aro
ready to descend on the food laid out
by each party of plenickers. It is by.
nO means impossible that an un-
noticed fly speck on the cake may be
responsible for a ‘sporadic’ case of
typhoid fever or intestinal tuber-
sulosts. ¢
And this insect, born fn a dung-
hill and feeding on what is foul and
liseased, is a.dally household guest,
as witness its very name, “the com-
pon house fly.”
I have sought in vain for any
root of good to man that can be
edited to this insect. “When I was
| child I used to hear it sala that

med what would’otherwise be a
ource of danger to us. For the same
eason, great should be the debt of

A SCHOOLGIRU PITCHER.
Pennsylrania Girl Who Plays Ball
With the Best of the Bots.
Miss Carrle Moyer, the seventeen-
year-old daughter of Victor Moyer,
of Macungie, is a living refutation of
‘the charge that when a woman
throws a ball-or missile the one
point of safety for any human being
is directly in line with what she aims
at.
From her earliest childhood Miss
Moyer, who is now winning fame
twirling the spherold across the
home plate, had a deep love for basé-
ball. When other girls were jump-
ing the rope and trundling the hoop
Miss Moyer was playing baseball and
handball with the boys in the nelgh-
borhood, and every juvenile captain
of the diamond contested flercely for
the honor of having her on his team,
for even at that tender age she could
“line them out” at a rate that mado

shoulder blades fanning the empty

is confidently predicted that if she
keeps on pitching ball she will yet
make Rube Waddell sit up and take
notice.
| While Miss Moyer has been fond
of all kinds of athletic sports “since
‘childhood’s busy hour,” it was not
until she Was a student at the Kutz-
town Normal School, 2 few years ago,
that her great ability ‘as a pitcher

with her cup of tea she will be mar-
ried within the year.
‘Those who help themselves to the

A tea leaf floating on the edge of
simple bodices is yet very smart.
"a cup of tea means that the drinker
has an admirer. If the tea is stirred
quickly and the spoon held upright in

Tact,
‘What Js the most popular quality
in woman? “The question was sug-
gested,” writes a Parisienne, “by a
cosmopolitan reunion of friends in
Paris one night this week, and the
various opinions we supplied food
for thought. Thé European coun-
tries were well represented—halt a
dozen Parisians, four Spaniards (two
ot each sex), a Russtan, who had
been a famous beauty in the years
that are gone by, and one Irish wo-
man, who had to represent the Brit.
ish empire in her own person,
| The’ Paristans, without exception,
declared that ‘exprit (vivaclty) was
the quality which gleaned most love)
the Spantards voted for beauty and
the Russians for personal magnet-
ism, The Irish woman tentatively
‘uttered the single word ‘tact.’ Every
one took part in the discussion with
real pleasure, but when ‘tact’ was the
subject-matter it was » case of elev-
en voices to one. They all agreed
that this quality, though eminently
desirable, was too imperfect to at-
tract love.
1“T wonder if readers of this para-
graph will also detide ‘tact’ as a
magnet of love, Personally I think
it represents the axle on which the
wheel of happy lite revolves. The wo-
man of inborn tact is a creature of
whom men never fire, to whom girls
cling, If.she be beautiful ang witty,
so much the better; but she will not
let elther of these qualities leap to
the surface.
“It is a well known fact that ft
giveness may follow in the train of
physical injurtes. but never in that
of wounded feelings. It is equally
true that most persons resent being
reminded of weaknesses, The wo-
man‘of tact sees all—and sees noth-
ing; hears all—and heart nothing.”

How to Be Happy.
Walter Williams delivers this, pret:
ty homily in his East Window col
umn:
Nobody can be long happy alone.
There is joy in solitade but the jo;
soon fades if the solltude is pro-
longed. The joy of the individual is
‘always related in some way to the
joy of the community. It has ite
flower-and {ts fruit in social service.
Old bachelors dry up—only wher
they devote their lives to some wor.
thy purpose autside themselves, In
the legend beautiful an angel ap-
pears in the midst of the monk's
prayer and then the dell rings which
calls him to his accustomed work and
he hesitates between the angel and
the errand. But when he returns,
having done his common task, the
vision says: “hadst thou stayed, I
must have fled.”
The people who live to"have a good
time for themselves usually end by
having a bad time for other péople
and a worse time for themselves. The
best“known individual of this type in
modern fiction is Tito In George Ell-
ot's Romola, His chief aim In life
was to maintain the serenity of his
own soul. Yet after breaking the
hearts of his best friends he perishes
miserably. He was pursuing a sel-
fish happiness and in the unalterable
grammar of life that adjective and
that noun may not be used together.
Stevenson speaks of “the great
task of happiness.” But happiness
is not a task, It s not even an occu-;
pation. It is a quality of life. Hap-
piness depends on helpfulness. That's
the reason joy 1s social. Helpfulness
keeps happiness because it adds to
the area of affection. People are not
happy when they seek after happi-
ness, They become steeped in hap-~
piness when they’ undertake to pro-
mote the joy of others.—Kansas City

took from us one of the ploueer cit-
Izens, Mr, Scott.
Br, Scott came to Whigham over
twenty years ago, comparatively a
young mar. There was only a fer
houses In Whigham at that time. By
bis great energy and close applica-
tlon to business he accumulated some
property and, elded in building up his
tox and community, He was con-
sidered one of the foremest property
owner of his race in this section,
and was a very good farmer; where
he war engaged In business.
He was a ‘irm believer in the Holy
Gitle—that “whatsover thy hand f=d-
«th to do, do with thy might.” What-
over Mr, Scott undertook to do he
always put {uto it that amount of en-
ergy. zeal and business integrity
which always bring success,
Mr, Scott was a jovial, kind heart
ed and pleasant man, and number-
eq his friends by the score. He was
a loyal citizen and a member vf both
the Masons and Supreme Circle.
He was 1 Methodist by falth, and
when in gond health was penctual’
in attendance upen church.
‘The funeral services were held at-
the Methodist Church at 3 o'clock p.
nm. au the same day he died, con-
ductea by Rev. Willlam D, Jonson,
presiting elder of the Thomasville
distrle., wno made an appropriate and
lepehing talk cn the Ilfe and charac
ter of Mr Scott, 2
The funeral was attended by a
large conceurse of people. His body
was interred at the Whizham ceme+
tery by the Masons. He was a faith’
ful, kind hushand end a loving and
indulgent father. Hesleaves to mourn
his dvath a wife, four daughters, siify
sons, four brothers ard bis father ant"
4 large number of relatives. -
We would commend the sorrowing
wife and hur children, relatives and
friends for comfert to Him who do-
cth all things well, 4
It is a comfert to be ,where of”
row and pain ¢annot come.
Mr. Scott hud heen in bad healtti®

pommunity sympathizes with the be-
reaved farmly. Respectfully,

Expensive Green Turtle,
“The flesh of the green turtie often
brinss $50 a pound,” sald an oyster
dealer. “This rich meat comes to us
from the coral ceefs cf the West
Indles.
The turtles are caught in nets
‘among the rocks, They are very care-
fully brought North, They are deck,
passengers at first, but as the weather
grows cold with the ship's progress
they are peaned in warm rooms below
—regular staterooms. It’s a differen
treatment that they get, tough, at the
native’s hands. If a native is brir’:
ing turtles North he nails them fa.
to the deck by their filppers, Strange
creatures that they are, they appeat
to suffer little under such cruel treat
ment, +
The calipeo and calipash are ro
spectlyely the flesh from the breast
and the back of the green turtle, tid
bits whicly I have heard eplcures say,
are unequaled in the earth beneath,
the heavens above or the waters |
under the earth, This meat is super:
latively rich, delicate and tender. Live
green turtle fetches wholesale from
a dime to a quarter a pound. What
makes the meat so expensive in the
end Is that out of a 140-pound fish you-
only get two pounds of callpee and
one of callpash. Several times when
there had been a light turtle market
the chefs of millionaires and of cer
tain extravagant hotels have offered
me $1 a pound for live turtles. At
that rate your callpee and calipas
would come to quite $50 a pound—

Our people must continue to stand together. Do not fall by the wayside We are now achieving that which is and will do an everlasting good.
The pool rooms in the city that are, always filled with young boys should be closed. Not only that but all of the low dives in the city should be put out of business.
ALL credit is due the Rev. D. W Cannon for his able and timely article in the Morning News this week in rebuttal to the disconnected and illogical communication of Col. Mercer in the paper the day preceding.
This is an excellent field for a man with capital to invest in a first class shoe store, with a first class stock. The investors will be able to make money, especially on account of the present sentiment among our people. Instead of establishing so many business of the same kind, let them be diversified, and by all means establish a shoe store. THE TRIBUNE pledges the hearty support of a loyal people.
ONE of the unkindest cuts of them all was given Collector Rucker last week by one of our contemporaries published at Atlanta. In the zeal of this contemporary to prove its loyalty to the cause of the white people of Atlanta, it so far forgot itself as to attempt to stir the feeling of the white citizens against Collector Rucker because he did his duty in issuing revenue license to the public. Our contemporary should not strike below the belt. It will be found that the most prejudiced white man will not approve this onslaught on Collector Rucker.
It seems passing strange that there should be so many reported alleged assaults near Atlanta. In counties where the colored population is two and three to one in comparison to the white population, such reports are never made. This comparison alone will cause men to think more. The flagrant charge is being made that the Negro is the rape race. This can not be successfully proven. The students of crime will readily attest to the truthfulness of the above assertion. In certain of the Northern and Western cities, notably Chicago, there have been more assaults committed by white men than the number charged to colored men in the entire South.
Some weeks ago Supt. Ashmore in an interview decried the action of the money lenders in their exhorbitant rate of interest. Mr. Ashmore was unkind enough to charge this to the colored institutions that are doing a financial business. This charge is an unwarranted one. All of the colored concerns are doing a legitimate business. Mr. Ashmore should have placed his charge nearer home. He has facts to do so. It was only a few weeks ago when a white money lender was arrested and fined for raising a disturbance in a down town store because a man failed to pay, him exhorbitant interest. Again another white money lender fatally shot one of Mr. Ashmore's employees on Thursday because the man refused to pay exhorbitant interest.
As will be seen from our column the United Transportation Company has applied for a charter which will undoubtedly be issued in that next two weeks. In the same time the man powering subscription to the public stock of $000.00. A large amount has already been collected and being collected daily. The people are interested in the matter and are determined to save the business in operation at the service date. The rousing news meeting at the Second Baptist Church on Friday night of last week attested to the great interest that the people are manifesting in this movement. At this meeting several hundred dollars of the

O Lord, how long?
O Lord, protect us.
St. Luke Herald.
Honorable James G. Carter of Brunswick Ga.
M.
The above is an excellent likeness of Hon. Jas. G. Carter, of Brunswick, recently appointed United States Consulat Sivas, Turkey. This appointment came unsolicited from Mr. Carter which makes it all the more appreciated by him and his host of friends. The following from the Brunswick Herald speaks for itself:
On Friday September 14th, Mr. Jas. G. Carter, the newly appointed United States consulat Sivas, Turkey, took the oath of office and allegiance before County Clerk H. F. DuBignon, the same, together with proper bond and formal acceptance of the appointment, was transmitted to and filed with the department of state at Washington, D. C.
According to the consular regulations, Mr. Carter must start for his post within thirty days after being sworn in. This means that Mr. Carter will leave the city within a very few days, going direct to Washington for final instructions and then sail from New York.
Mr. Carter has been the recipient of many congratulatory letters, and newspaper comments have been many.
Among the letters received are two from Americans now living in Sivas, who extend the heartiest welcome and send along much encouraging and desired information concerning that particular part of the great Turkish domain.
Besides, in the regular press dispatches, Mr Carter's appointment has been given wide circulation through the many personal and editorial columns of the local and colored press.
shares were subscribed and many shareholders paid in full. Prominent men were the speakers and hearty applause was given them. Mr. Geo, S. Williams, the able and fluent young orator poured hot shots into those who have been trying to divide the people and making false charges against the leaders. He did it in such a convincing manner as to easily win the applause of the vast gathering and who to the echo condemned the strife makers.
At meeting of the managers on Wednesday, it was decided that it would not pay to invest in any other but automatic machines, and steps were immediately taken to communicate with the dealers. If this is not satisfactory, an agent will be sent to the factory and make the selection of the vehicles wanted. Every effort will be made to have the same in operation within the next few weeks.
On next Wednesday night a meeting of the stockholders and other citizens will be held at the Union Baptist Church, Rev. Hi L, Haywood, pastor, on Charles Street. Each person interested is urged to be present. An opportunity will be given subscribers to settle their account.
In Memoriam
In memory of my loving husband,
ANDREW SPENCER,
who entered the haven of rest, Oct. 2nd
1905.
A precious one from us is gone
A voice we loved is still
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon his love has given
And though the body slumbers here
His soul is at rest In Heaven.
How we miss him none can tell
Lord grant us grace to bow
And say Thy will has been done. Rest.
His devoted wife,
Essix
and Mother-in-law.

Since two years ago prominent
witnesses to the conspiracy would
take notice of his conduct two weeks
before he was held in a court of
justice by bringing the entire Legisl-
ature to bear the blame on his lips
and to the court; he wanted
to be freed from prison and he would
not be freed until victory.
The doctrine of patriotism is more
essential than a near-time fighting patriot.
It is important—more important—to get-good men into
conflict is to bare one's breast to
defeat the enemy; and it requires
the courage, too, for the lawbreak-
ance muc' noise.
dozen lawbreakers make more than 400 law-abiding citizens.
The lawless have not the strength in politics that they claim.
The people of right thought and those who obey the laws and will vote for the enforcement of the law far outnumber those who graft or wink at grafting.
Some men think they are too good to mix in politics. He who is too good to take an active interest in politics is too good to be a citizen of America.
Every man is a king here. He has a part of the responsibility of sovereignty. He that is faithful in little is not to be trusted in larger things.
All laws should be enforced. If any are bad they should be repealed. That is the remedy.
The trust denounces the law-breaking pickpocket, but thinks it has a perfect right to violate the anti-combination statutes.
The burglar abhors the trust law-breaker, but thinks the law against housebreaking is an interference with his personal liberty.
The saloonkeeper thinks the law to protect his cash drawer from the theft a good law, but hates the law requiring his saloon to close on Sun-
You can't pick out this law or that and say you will not enforce it.
The powers of evil, the law-breakers, will support a candidate for prosecuting attorney or sheriff, taking an agreement from him that in consideration of their support he will not enforce laws that they do not like. That is embezzlement of power and bartering of sacred trust.
The time is about here when embezzlement of power will be held as bad as embezzlement of money.
Those who make money by non-enforcement of law do not make their case on the honest ground of their own private interest, but like the shrine maker of Ephesus, who praised the greatness of Diana, they place their case or other ground, and loudly proclaim about threatened interference, with the liberties of the people.
Labory to make law does not mean license to break laws.
Some of our great merchant princes have been found, to be lawbreakers by taking rebates from railroads. They did not think it was wrong.
The public conscience is awakened. It has declared many things wrong that were thought to be all right and honest.
I have found the railroad pass to be one of the most insidious forms of bribery.
The railroads are entitled to fair treatment but not to any special privileges. They have no right to send their professional lobbyists to debauch legislatures.
You can't cure corruption by hiding it. There is no secret remedy known for it. Drag it out into the light of day and hit it—hit it, hard.
Publicity is the best remedy for miscorruption.
A man wasse against graft and spear-
tionage does not mean a fight
against honest wealth.
Let men make as much money as
they can—but prohibit them from
making it dishonestly.
Some rightocusness is growing. A
standard is being set up.
learning that honesty is
the best politics as well as the best
work for each of us to do.
There is ground where we live. The
man must always be fought for, the
woman must be fought against. Show
the colors.
The young man is advised to get
right and stay right rather than to
get rich and stay rich.
Be true and don't you care who
knows it. Be just as courageous for
the right as the law-breakers are for
their side.

There is no force, there is no power in all the world that can overcome the right, if you will only right for the right.

PAYMENT OF M. P.S.
What Various Countries Pay Their Legislators.
A Parliamentary return was issued recently respecting the remuneration of M. P.s in foreign countries.
In'Austria every member of the Lower House receives about 16s. 8d. a day during the session, and no member may refuse this salary. Traveling expenses at the beginning and end of the sessions are allowed.
In ungary members of the Chamber of Deputies receive £200 annually and about £66 for house rent. Railway tickets are obtained at a reduction of price.
Members of the Upper House in Bavaria receive no payment; in the Lower House they are paid 10s. a day during the session, with free railway tickets. In Belgium an annual "indemnity" of £160 and free railway travel are given to the members of the House of Representatives. Members of the Bulgarian Sobranje receive 16s. a day during the session. In Denmark M. P.'s are bound to accept 11s. a day for six months and 6s. 8d. a day if the session lasts longer. Free passes (second class) are allowed on the railways.
France pays £360 a year to Senators and Deputies, and deducts 4s. for refreshments. Railway travel is free on the State railways, and on other lines a monthly subscription of 8s. enables them to travel first class throughout the year on every line. There is also a pension fund for ex-emembers, the widows of members and their children. In Germany there are free railway travel and an annual sum of £150, from which 20s. per day is deducted for absences. Members of the Greek Chamber receive £72 for each ordinary session. In Hesse-Darmstadt the payment is a daily fee of 9s., and 3s. for any night. Travel between Carlsruhe and members' homes is free.
No payment is made in Italy, but M. P.s have the privilege of free railway travel and on certain lines of steamers.
In the Netherlands the pay is £166 a year and certain traveling expenses.
The Grand Duchy of Luxembourg allows 4s. 2d. per day to those members living outside the capital, and railway fares are reduced.
Norway pays 13s. for each day of the Storthing session and traveling allowances.
Portuguese M. P.s, since 1892, are unpaid, but they are entitled to free travel on the State railways and Government ships in connection with their duties.
Free passes on the State railways and twenty francs daily are given to M. P.s in Roumania.
Members of the Duma in Russia are to receive 21s. a day during the session and once a year their traveling expenses to St. Petersburg and back.
In Saxony 6s. a day is paid to those who live in the capital and 12s. a day to those outside. There are also free passes on the railways.
Deputies of the Servian Skuptschina receive 12s. a day and a free pass to and from their homes at the commencement or end of each session.
Only railway passes are given to the members of the Spanish Cortes.
First Chamber members in Sweden receive no payment and no traveling expenses; members of the Second Chamber receive about 11s. a day in the session.
Members of both Chambers are paid in Switzerland, the amount varying from 12s. 6d. to 25s. per day with the importance of the canton and liberality of the authorities. Congressmen of the United States receive $5000 a year.—London Daily News.
Which Was It?
The governor was puzzled. "Look here," he said, turning to his private secretary. "Can you tell me whether this note comes from my tailor or my legal adviser? They're both named Brown." The note was as follows:
The note was as follows.
"I have begun your suit. Ready to be tried on Thursday. Come in—Brown."—Toledo Blade.
To obviate delays by storms, the telegraphic trunk lines are being put underground in Great Britain. The underground line between London and Glasgow is already completed.
PRETTY THINGS TO WEAR
S
New York City.—The round yoke waist is always a pretty one. It suits the greater number of figures admirably well and it has a certain simple charm that is distinctly its own. The model includes various novel features in addition to those mentioned and makes an exceedingly attractive blouse that allows a choice of elbow or long sleeves. In this instance pale
1
blue crepe de Chine is combined with all-over lace and with silk that is cut into bands and embroidered but all the pretty soft fabrics of fashion are appropriate, vellings and similar light weight wools and pretty silks and even the mulls and the muslins. There is a lining which is fitted to the figure and the waist itself consists of the front, backs and yoke. The front is cut to form extensions and both front and backs are laid in one box plait at each shoulder while the trimming straps are arranged under these extensions and under the upper portions, the box plaits so producing an exceedingly attractive as well as unusual result. The sleeves
S
are the provalling ones that are moderately full and can be finished at the elbows with bands or extended to the wrists as may be liked. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and one-half yards twenty-one, three and one-eighth yards twenty-seven or one and seven-eighth yards forty-four inches wide with one-half yard of all-over lace for the yoke, one yard when long sleeves are used, one-half yard of silk for the bands.
Neat Traveling Costume.
About the neatest traveling costume this season, one which is practical and at the same time stylish, is a champagne-colored mohair trimmed with brown velvet. With clean waists in one's suit-case it would be possible to travel for weeks in such a costume and look right at the end of one's journey. The hat worn with it is a shade of brown, a ribbon knot at one side being thrust through with a heavy quill in which there are both brown and orange colors.
An All the Rage Bracelet.
A flexible bracelet that is all the rage in London is made of flexible gold, in the form of a strap, and is buckled round the wrist. Some are quite plain, and cost merely £2 10s., while others, set with jewels, can be as expensive as the purse of the purchaser will allow.
Applying Laco Squares.
The new way of applying lace squares is by laying them flat upon the goods without cutting out the material underneath. These squares are put on the goods, secured with stitching, and are trimmed with tiny little frills of lace.
Tiny change pockets are set upon the wrists of some Blarrits gloves, and the wrist finess may be left loose.
Shoes: Bolt and Het:
A light gray skirt, gray shoes, a delicato silver nailhead belt, a white waist, and a light-blue hat; isn't that a pretty outfit?
The net yoke of a batiste waist is trimmed with straps of the batiste; the wide cuffs are of the net with batiste bands also.
Use For Thin Gown.
If you have a thin gown that is too deep a shade to be becoming, make an underslip of white silk and the color will be softened materially.
Steel and Jet Buckles.
Steel and jet have had their places in the making of the fashionable belts, and excellent buckles of inlaid and of etched gold and silver are well toward the top of the list.
Neglattice Jacket For Embroidery.
Negligees made from embroidered flouncing are among the latest and prettiest devices of the season and are exceedingly attractive. This one is combined with a yoke of wide insertion and frills of embroidery but there are a great many variations that can be evolved from the design. In addition to the flouncing it can be made from any bordered material as the lower edge is quite straight, but its usefulness is not limited even to them and any plain material can be utilized if appropriate trimming be added. The slightly open neck and the elbow sleeves are both attractive and healthful, while the general style is an extremely graceful one at the same time that perfect simplicity is maintained. If a yoke of embroidery is not desired, the plain material trimmed in any way that may be
1
liked can, be used or bands can be made to serve as a finish. The jacket is made with the full straight portion that is tucked at its upper edge and the narrow yoke to which it is attached. The sleeves are simple full ones that are gathered into bands and to these bands the frills are joined. The quantity of material required for the medium size is two yards of embroidered flouncing twenty-four inches wide, one and three-eighth yards of plain material thirty-six
10
inches wide, one and one-half yards of insertion three and one-half inches wide for the yoke, five and one-half yards of embroidery for trills to make as illustrated; or, one and three-fourth yards of plain material twenty-seven, two and one-half yards thirty-ix or one and seven-eighth yards forty-four inches wide.
POPULAR SCIENCE
Professor King, an authority on breeding, says that the male is more potent to transmit new elements, the female, average elements.
Scientists are coming to place a higher value on the humus or vegetable mold contained in barnyard manure. Not only is it a lightener of the soil, etc., but recent experiments tend to show that the vegetable matter of manure can be directly absorbed and used by plant roots.
Joseph Monier, from whom reinforced concrete is usually called "Monier" construction in Europe, was a gardener, and in 1867 took out a patent for making flower pots with a wire skeleton filled in with cement—little thinking that bridges and buildings could be built in a similar way.
In North Sweden, according to recent expert estimates, there are iron ore deposits amounting to 1,200,000,000 tons. The greater part of this ore contains from sixty-five to seventy per cent. of iron. North Sweden also possesses other large deposits of iron ore which contains so high a percentage of titanium that it cannot at present be worked to advantage. Norway, in its northern districts, has ore deposits, even exceeding those of Sweden in extent, but they contain, on the average, only from thirty to forty per cent. of iron.
The new fish car of Dr. Eugene Erlwein, a German, carries no heavy tank of water, but keeps the fish alive during long journeys in a supply of liquid just sufficient to keep the gills moist. Small pumps keep the water in constant circulation, passing it through an apparatus that charges it with oxygen and extracts the carbonic acid. In the laboratory, the fish are placed on shelves in a large glass case, and here, entirely out of water, plike, trout, bass and other finned creatures live contentedly for an fndefinite time, having been shown to be as much alive as ever at the end of thirty hours. The oxygen supplied is kept moist by passing through water and by a wet cloth on the floor of the case.
A strange accident happened on one of the highways leading out of Walla Walla, Wash., recently, that resulted in the destruction of a motor car. Heavy, coarse straw had been placed on the road for the purpose of keeping down the dust. As the car passed over this the straw became entangled in the rear axle to such an extent that the rear wheels were lifted clear of the ground, making it impossible to move the car forward or backward. The car had been running a long distance without a stop, and the muffler was so hot that the straw, which was closely packed between the floor of the car and the ground, became ignited. As the rear wheels were clear of the ground it was impossible to move the car from its dangerous position.
TRAITS OF FIGHTING BULLS.
Easily Managed When Massed Together—Some Have the Evil Eye.
In Spain accidents to bull fighters are of frequent occurrence, and it is interesting to see the hero of many fights swing into the chapel attached to the bull ring and kneel before entering the arena.
Bull fighting is the national pastime. Boys play at it in the gutters, and there are bull fights for amateurs all over the country, at which only two-year-old bulls are used, and young and old descend into the arena. Astounding is the enthusiasm, says the Nineteenth Century.
Interesting, too, is the psychology of bulls. When herded together they are docile enough, and it is a picturesque sight to see the bulls brought into the paddock, prior to the fight, through the streets of the city when all are sleeping. A cow trained to the business, with a bell around her neck, is all that is necessary, and the bulls follow quietly behind her.
In the plains where the bulls are reared men on horses manage them quite easily so long as they are massed together. Three bulls in the ring together would be useless for a fight, but each bull separately will fight to the death.
Bulls literally see red. Were it not that a bull will always dash at anything red the mer in the ring would have no chance whatever. Occasionally bulls have what is called the evil eye, and remain indifferent to the red capa extended to them, and then the list of casualties is generally high.
Sometimes a bull which has shown prodigious power and fight is pardoned by the populace. A cow, kept for the purpose, is then sent into the arena, and at sight of her the bull forgets man and the fury of the battle and gently trots behind to the paddock, as meek as any heifer.
Many are the curiosities about bulls, which sometimes refuse to attack a particular horse, and when a man is down, motionless, disdain even to try to paw him. Some bulls make instinctively for one man, and will chase him all around the ring, leaping the barrier if he vaults over it, and if he falls, will kneel upon his body and gore him to shreds. There is no mercy in bulls, and none is shown to them.
Rich or poor alike are habitually constipated. It slays its victims by thousands, although some other name goes into the death certificate. Drugs will not cure. Eat daily.

I did not take much notice of it at first, and it began to get worse all the time, and then I began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin humors, but I became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the time. Especially at night, just as soon as I would get in bed and get warm, my whole body would begin to itch, and my finger nails would keep it irritated, and it was not long before I could not rest night or day. A friend asked me to try the Cuticura Remedies, and I did, and the first application helped me wonderfully. For about four weeks I would take a hot bath every night and then apply the Cuticura Ointment to my whole body, and - kept getting better, and by the time I used four boxes of Cuticura I was entirely cured and my hair stopped falling cat. D: E. Blankenship, 319 N. Del. St., Indianapolis, Ind. Oct. 27, 1903."
The Pallsades.
This uplift of volcanic matter, resting on baked sandstone and inclining westward at a gentle slope, presents in its riverward aspect the columnar or palisaded appearance that so impressed the early voyagers: a gray wall beetling from 300 to 500 feet above the tide, shagged with trees at the summit, half buried behind a scrap of talus, that is also verdurous. At Nyack it bends into the amphitheatre where that pretty town has nestled, surges riverward again to form Point-no-Point, and still ascending behind Haverstraw reaches in High Tor a lift of 820 feet. As the dyke extends southward, also, to Bayanne, its total length is forty miles, but the Palisades proper front the river for half that distance.—From Charles M. Skinner's "The Gates of the Hudson" in the Century.
Nerve Pillow.
A "nerve" pillow is something which physicians are sald to recommend and which can easily be made at home. One needs only to gather or buy a quantity of dried soporific herbs, such as hops and catnip leaves, bayberry and sweet fern, adding to them sweet grass, balsam pine and as many sweet smelling, sleepy things as one can think of. Dry, and powder, and mix all together. Then fill your "nerve" pillow with the Summerwood sachet powder thus formed. Stuff the pillow with down or cotton batting or feathers, and either scatter the powder thick through the filling, or, what is better, make sachet bags and, fasten them securely to the inner sides of the pillow.—Philadelphia Ledger.

Doctor Recommends Postum From Personal Test.
No one is better able to realize the injurious action of caffeine—the drug in coffee—on the heart, than the doctor.
When the doctor himself has been relieved by simply leaving off coffee and using Postum, he can refer with full conviction to his own case.
A Mo. physician prescribes Postum for many of his patients because he was benefited by it. He says:
"I wish to add my testimony in regard to that excellent preparation—Postum. I have had functional or nervous heart trouble for over 15 years, and part of the time was unable to attend to my business.
"I was a moderate user of coffee and did not think drinking it hurt me. But on stopping it and using Postum instead, my heart has got all right, and I ascribe it to the change from coffee to Postum.
"I am prescribing it now in cases of sickness, especially when coffee does not agree, or affects the heart, nerves or stomach.
"When made right it has a much better flavor than coffee, and is a vital sustainer of the system. I shall continue to recommend it to our people, and I have my own caze to refer to." Name given by Postum Coa, Battle Creek, Miti. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs, "There's a reason."

‘Treating Old Apple Trees.
German newspapers have been
publishing articles describing exper!-
ments looking to the improvement of
declining apple orchards of the Var-
terland. A brief outline of the ex-
periments has been forwarded to the
department of commerce and labor
by Consul Mahin of Nottingham.
Of five long rows of apple trees,
he writes, one row was: left untreat-
ed and the other four had different
combinations of manurings. The row
left unmanured gave 104 pounds of
apples:per tree during tke five years
from 1900 to 1904, both inclusive,
and in the fifth year (1904), which
was the year of maximum yield for
the entire orchard, the welght of ap-
ples per tree was fifty-five pounds
and the number 294. The best re-
sults from manuring were obtained
by a complete manure, consisting of
1% pdunds of sulphate of ammonia,
1% pounds of basic slag per tree per
annum, applied to the roots during
the Winter. During the five years the
yield per tree from this dressing was
163 pounds of apples, while by the
fitth year the bearing increased to
401 apples weighing 105 pounds per
tree—that Is, the weight of the ap-
ples per tree increased by manuring
from fifty-five pounds on the unman-
ured trees to 105 pounds on the man-
ured trees, or 90.9 per cent; while
the number of apples increased from
294 to 401 per tree, or thirty-six per
cent. The increase in average size
of the apples is remarkable. Those
from the unmanured trees averaged
2.98 ounces eack, and those from
the manured trees 4.19 ounces each.

Tioney Wee Habits.
The honey bee has numerous hab-
dts, some of which are good and oth-
ers not quite so good. Stlll T, for
one, am glad that every’ femaie bee
4s equipped with a good sharp sting.
It {t were not so, how could such
“small, helpless creatures _ protect
themselves and their homes from
man end beast? » The race would
soon become ertinet, for the ‘honey
"bee has many enemies.
It would be necessary for the keep-
er of bess to keep a constant watch
on his hives to prevent them from
being looted, says the New York
Farmer. As‘ {t fs, the bees them-
selves do thelr own sentinel daty,
and no one yet has come around and
found them all asleep. After a Tiard
day of toll the beekeeper can lay his
Weary self down to rest and feel
quite confident that the bees will
hold the fort untit morning.
Probably the thing thost annoying
to the beekeeper is the swarming
habit. If the bees did not persist in
dividing their forees so frequently
much, more surplus honey could be
obtained, and the beekeeper would
feel more easy about his bees.
In producing comb honey’ in one-
Pound boxes it is necessary to crowd
the bees into the section boxes, for
they seem loath to begin work in
such small divisions, and this erowd-
ing is one of the {ncentives which
creates the swarming fever, When
Producing ‘extracted honey, abundant
Toom can be given, and the swarming
Impulse {s greatly checked,

not whether the combs are entirely
complete or not, as the honey is
taken from them and the combs re
tained to be used again. . |
Gapes and Its Treatment,
The popular fallacy that incuba-
tor chickens zre immene from gapes
doubtless “arises trom the fact that
they are usually kept from the
ground until pest’ the stage to~ be
troubled. Turn an incubator chicken
Toose on ground where chicks with
gapes haye run within two or three
years, and they will soon be gaping;
keep the hen with her brood on board
floors or ground not infested, anu
‘they are safe.
The diserse, as is generally under-
stood, is caused by a small worm
which loiges in the windpipe. Some
adepts remove the offender with a
skUful turn nf a feather or loop of
arsehair, but the novice is apt to

removing its cause. Chicks are rar

Double Coop, With Shelter.
This appliance consists of two
coops, each of which is sultable for
the accommodation of a hen and her
brood. They are set down on the
ground at any convenient distance
apart, say from three to five feet
asunder, and in such a position that
both fronts face the same direction,
extending from one coop to the
‘other there is a light frame of wood
resting on the roofs, and this framo
supports an awning of canvas, un-
Dleached calico, oilcloth or any sim-
ilar material. The awning forms a
roof over the spacebetween thecoops,
and also extends to the ground at
the back and pangs over the edge a
few inches in front. Amplesshade
and shelter are thus afforded the
chicks in both coops, the space be-
tween being common to both broods.
While the chicks are under a week
old, if it {s so desired, they may Be
confined to this sheitered space by
means of a strip of wire netting
placed along the front, and thus a
convenient feeding and exercising
ground is formed at very little ex-
pense. This arrangement does not
suit very well when the two broods
of chickens are.of different ages, but
when hatched at the same time they
fraternize in, the most amicable
manner imaginable, and yet do not
make the mistake of returning te)
the wrong coop.

Life Philosophy
of a Gilded Youth
By Wilson Mizner.
(He married the middle-aged, millionaire widow of Charles T. Yerkes.)
IME belongs to no union. He never goes on a strike. While we sleep our enemy is ever at work. Sooner or later he gets us all. Life is always a disappointment. It is a big practical joke.
T
Work! Don't speak of it. It is the poorest excuse of an occupafion. I know of. No one ever got a snapshot at me doing manual labor. I hate work like, the Lord hates St. Louis. But why should I work? I never committed any crime. Ugh! I wouldn't mind setting up at 7 in the word

ing. But if I had to I couldn't. I'd lie awake all night long thinking about it. Work is a curse. I can't understand people making such work out of pleasure.
There's this skating rink sad in New York. It's too much effort. And I never could understand a man's going to a dance with four collars in his hat extracting pleasure hopping around and perspiring. I'd get operated on for anything that would make me energetic. The ideal state of existence is rest. Sleep and food; then food and sleep, and then reverse the process. Be sure it's light, then go to bed. The sun just lulls me to sleep.
People take me for a clothes-rack; a namby-pamby jackass; a peaceful baboon who wouldn't raise his hand to help a fellow, capable of only the most elementary knowledge, two ideas being an unlawful assemblage. Dress is a secondary consideration with me. I'm a perfect slob. I only go around so the health commissioners won't complain. As for money, I don't care for that either. I have always made a lot, but I never can keep it. If I had $8 at the end of n year I'd break out in a rash.
Japan's Trade Invasion of Europe
By Major-Gen. Sir Alexander Tulloch.
OME fifteen years ago, when there was a possibility of the manufacturers of warlike stores being too busy in England to supply what we might require in Australia, I got our minister of defense in Victoria to try what Japan could do in making rifles to special patterns. We sent a cadet's rifle (Francott) and a Wilkinson officer's sword. In a wonderfully short-time we got a dozen perfectly made rifles at the same price we had hitherto given, and a dozen swords quite equal to the Wilkinson for £1 each—just one-third of
S
our contract price for the same.
In articles of ordinary use, made in Japan are in Australia, last summer, when in the High Japanese-made nail-brushes simile way to a town in the east of Seoul.
I found Japanese boots good that I now get my boots American leather—and the make is just one-half of what I have.

Dem Effect
By Walter
In articles of ordinary use, such things as cricket bats and tennis racquets made in Japan are in Australia cutting out similar articles made in England. Last summer, when in the Highlands, I was informed that a consignment of Japanese-made nail-brushes similar to English ones had actually found its way to a town in the east of Scotland. I found Japanese boots made to measure when I was in Yokohama so good that I now get my boots from Japan by parcel post. The material—American leather—and the make are both excellent; the price, including carriage, just one-half of what I have hitherto paid for similar boots in London.
How to Limit Big Fortunes
By Professor James Walter Crook,
of Amherst College.
ORTUNES may be considered as swollen beyond healthy limits, which yield from $5,000,000 to $20,000,000 a year. The methods of relief sometimes proposed are an arbitrary limit to the amount an individual may accumulate; progressive taxation of incomes, and progressive inheritance taxes. Where should the limit be drawn? The limitation is repressive and is meant to be so. It would put a premium upon relative inefficiency and deprive society of the advantage of beneficial enterprises. A progressive tax on
Incomes high enough to accomplish the purpose aimed at has the same disadvantages. There is left the progressive tax on inheritance. As a tax measure alming at revenue, I approve of it. It is easily collected. As a measure to limit fortunes, however, it seems to me more doubtful. To accomplish the purpose the rate must be very high. A tax heavy enough would involve a problem of administration. Even so low a rate as 30 percent would mean a tax of $15,000,000 for every estate of $50,000,000, and there are now many fortunes of that size.
There are said to be fifty men in Pittsburgh alone whose fortunes exceed that amount, and in the case of some well known fortunes the tax would amount to upward of $43,000,000. The greatest objection is the encouragement which the heavy taxation of the wealthy will give to extravagant public expenditures.
Demoralizing Effect of Money
HE first and most conspicuous of the moral influences of money, as they are developing themselves in our actual society, is a consequence of the undeniable but prodigious fact that most rich people are radically convinced that to be rich is in itself a merit.
t
X
There are persons of this description who positively scorn other people because they are not rich, too; who look upon dollars as the one test of merit, and who regard poverty as a condition of low inferiority, if not, indeed, of absolute degradation and disgrace.
It is deplorable, but it is so.
To ask such persons, men or women, to believe that their money is nothing but a mere accident, a simple hazard of the game of life, would be like telling them that two and two make five; they could not comprehend it—the exclamation would surpass their understanding. Of course, your plutocratic officers will laugh and quote Voltaire: "It is more easy to write about money than have it; and those who have it laugh at those who can only write."
Yet it is laughable, and it is so.

Taft is Made Temporary Governor of Island—Cuban Flag, However, Still Flies to Breeza.
With far less ostentation than gecompanies the accession of a new municipal administration, the government of Cuba was formally taken over Saturday by William H. Taft, secretary of war of the United States, who, in a proclamation couched in a kindly and diplomatic tone, indicative of the policy he would pursue, declared himself provisional governor of the island.
Prompily at noon Governor Taft, Assistant Secretary of State Bacon, and Captain McCoy, Governor Taft's alde-de-camp, called officially at the palace and paid their respects to the retiring president. Governor Taft spoke kindly to Senor Palma, to whom he said, the people of Cuba owed an unquestionable debt of gratitude. President Palma's brief reply, was devoted entirely to an expression of relief for the opportunity of shifting the burden of guilding the tempestuous republic to the representative of a nation strong enough to enforce control over it.
The terms of the proclamation caused general satisfaction, especially on account of the moderate terms in which it was couched. It was published in the official Gazette and thousands of printed copies of the document were distributed. A striking feature of the provisional government is the fact that the Cuban flag has not been lowered. This establishes a precedent in provisional governments and protectorates. Governors Taft's proclamation was as follows:
"To the People of Cuba: The failure of congress to act on the irrevocable resignation of the president of the republic of Cuba or to elect a successor leaves the country without a government at a time when great disorder prevails and requires that, pursuant to the request of Mr. Palma, the necessary steps be taken in the name and by the authority of the president of the United States to restore order and protect life and property in the island of Cuba and the island's keys adjacent thereto and for this purpose to establish therein a provisional government."
"The provisional government hereby established will be maintained only long enough to restore order, peace and public confidence by election of and in the name of the president of the United States and then to hold such elections as may be necessary to determine on those persons upon which the permanent government of the republic should devolve. In so far as is consistent with the nature of a provisional government established under the authority of the United States, this will be a Cuban government, conforming with the constitution of Cuba.
"The Cuban flag will be hoisted as usual over the government buildings of the island; all the executive departments and provincial and municipal governments will continue; all the executive departments administered as under the Cuban republic; the courts will continue to administer justice and all the laws not in their nature inapplicable by reason of the temporary and emergent character of the government, will be in force.
"President Roosevelt has been most anxious to bring about peace under the constitutional government of Cuba, and he made every endeavor to avoid the present step. Longer delay, however, would be dangerous in view of the resignation of the cabinet.
"Until further notice the heads of all the departments, of the central government will report to me for instructions, including General Alexandro Rodriguez, in command of the rural guards, and other regular government forces, and General Carlos Roloff, treasurer of Cuba. Until further notice the civil governors and alcaldes will also report to me for instructions. "I ask all citizens and residents of Cuba to assist me in the work of restoring order, tranquility and public confidence. (Signed.) "WILLIAM H. TAFT, "Secretary of War, United States, Provisional-Governor of Cuba. "Harrison, Sept. 30, 1606."
"Havana, Sept. 29, 1906."
TAFT NOMINATES WINTHROP.
For Provisional Governorship of Cuba on His Retirement.
Governor Taft has nominated Beckman Winthrop, present governor of Porto Rico, for the provisional governorship in Cuba, recommending to the Cubans Mr. Winthrop's special fitness for the position. Mr. Taft says that as long as the provisional government continues it will be under his supervision as secretary, of war.

Curtalled Items of Interest Gathered at Random.
Agricultural Students at University. The agricultural department of the University of Georgia has more men in attendance than ever before In the history of the institution. The classroom in agriculture for the first time has overflowed with students, and Professor Johnson had to order out more chairs. The students for the most part are taking the full four years course.
Exhibit for Jamestown.
A portion of the state exhibit that will portray the resources of the Empire State of the South at the Jamestown exposition will be secured from the displays that will be made at the state fair in Atlanta. Owing to the large number of exhibits that are annually made by the state fair, it was thought that an extensive portion of the state display could be secured after the state fair had been closed.

Elfsean Were Killed In Plot.
The recent riot in Atlanta claimed a total of fifteen victims, thirteen negroes and two white persons. These figures are authentic and cover the entire riot, from its inception to the end. They were obtained from the death certificates issued by the health office, which show the names and addresses of those killed. Included in this list is Mrs. Ira Thompson, who died of fright when two negroes were shot next door to her home.
Rawlings Boys Again Resplited.
Milton and Jesse Rawlings have been granted an additional respite of thirty days each. Governor Terrell was influenced to grant the respites through the efforts of the young Rawlings' attorney and the tearful pleas of the boys' mother.
Another respite was also granted to Alf Moore, the negro on whose testimony the Rawlings boys were convicted. This respite was granted in order that Moore might be a witness in behalf of the state to oppose the application for a new trial.
May Operate Sugar Plant.
The sugar cane experimental station of the United States government, located in Waycross may be operated this year after all. Congressman Brantley has been working quietly for several weeks, trying to get the status of the experimental station straightened out, and it is likely will succeed in doing so in time for the state agricultural department to conduct experiments in the making of sugar cane syrup this season. It present nobody seems to knows just who has the plant under control.
W. G. Smith, of the United States department of agriculture, surveyed in Atlanta a few days ago and issued on Governor Terrell. Mr. Smith is one of the two experts who will be sent to Georgia by the department for the purpose of alding in the location and establishment of the new district agricultural colleges to be established under act of the recent legislature. Mr. Smith is an expert on soils. He will inspect each of the tracts of land offered to the state for these agricultural schools, and will pass upon the quality of the soil, which will have much to do with the selection of sites for these institutions.
Council Votes Aid Money.
An appropriation of $1,000 has been made by the Atlanta city council for the fund which is being raised to take care of the victims of the recent riot. The amount subscribed by citizens was $4,227. The city's $1,000 swelled the total to over $7,000. This money was used to pay the expenses of burying the dead, and to help take care of the families of those who were killed or injured. The city council also offered a reward of $200 for the arrest and conviction of any person who had a hand in the killing of innocent negroes on the streets during the riot.
Would Abolish Negro Help.
The board of health of Atlanta has decided that it would be best for the department and for the city to get rid of all negro labor, and employ white men.
The matter will be presented to the city council in a short while, and at the end of the year the board will ask for enough money to raise the wages of all employees in the sanitary department so that white men can be put to work on the first of January instead of the negroes.
The sanitary department now employs about 240 negroes, 90 of whom drive the trash carts, and about 50 sweep the streets. The others drive the night soil wagons and look after the stock.
The negroes have been paid $1.15 a day, and it is proposed to pay the white men $1.55 a day.
Another Question Arises.

are in somewhat of a quandary. It was recently decided by Attorney General John C. Hart, that under the amended law no local school tax could be collected from the railroad companies prior to 1907, because the new law does not provide for special returns to fit the case until next year. Now the question is can these school districts and counties collect the local school tax this year on other classes of property legally. Many inquiries along this line have been received in the office of State School Commissioner W. B. Merritt, who will take the matter up with the attorney general.
W. G. T. U. Electa Officers.
