Striking Machinists Decline the Southern's Offer. Men Were Asked to Return to Work Pending Arbitration of Trouble. Secret Ballot Was Taken in Various Cities. A Washington special says: The committee representing the machinists of the Southern Railway Company, who recently went on strike for an increase in wages, has declined the company's offer of arbitration. The chance for amicable settlement seems to be at an end and it is understood that the company will employ other men. The machinists went out on October 8 and the general manager of the Southern at once addressed a conciliatory circular to the men, stating the terms the company would agree to. This was followed by renewed negotiations between the committee representing the machinists and the company, resulting in an offer of arbitration by the company. It is this offer the committee has declined. At each of the fourteen affected cities a secret ballot was taken upon the proposition submitted by General Manager H. B. Spencer. That vote was known to one man only in each of the towns involved, and after the result had been ascertained by that official the information was transmitted by wire in cipher to President O'Connell in Washington. Atlantans involved had no possible opportunity to know how any city in the section of country concerned voted. The vote in Atlanta only was possible to ascertain, as the vote of the other towns was sent direct to Washington. One man alone in Atlanta knows how the Atlanta machinists voted, and that one man declined to discuss the situation in any manner whatever. Dozen Women Hurt During Crush In a Louisville Store. Twelve persons were injured in a panic In Louisville, Ky., during a bargain sale at a store. Fully 2,000 persons were in the store, attracted by a cut rate sale of some articles of chinaware of trivial value. During the rush for the counter in the rear of the establishment where the bargains were on display there was a cry of: "There's a $5 bill on the floor" by some person evidently facetiously inclined. Several persons bent over to pick up the bill and in the wild scramble that ensued women and children were thrown from their feet and trod on. Others were thrown over and crushed against the counters. -A cry of "Thief!" by some woman, whose pocketbook had been snatched, heightened the excitement. At this juncture the doors were closed and the human avalanche stopped. Physicians were hastily summoned and medical aid given. - Robbers Secure Sacks of Ore Valued at $50,000 and Escape. The Hayes-Monette lease on the Mohawk mining property at Goldfield, Nev., was robbed of $50,000 worth of ore Saturday by a band of robbers whose operations were of the most daring character. Just before daybreak four men drove up to the Hayes-Monette shaft house and jumped from the wagon. Entering the shaft house they ordered the two engineers: to throw up their hands and to carry twenty-eight sacks of high grade ore from the shaft house to the wagon. After making the engineers load the wagon the robbers drove off and escaped. Located in Atlanta and Will Engage in Rice Business. The Southern Rice, Land and Culture company is the name of a $250,000 corporation, for which New York and Atlanta Japs took out a charter in Atlanta Monday. The incorporators are Walter T. Asamy, Mango Tani and Matthew M. White of New York, and Matsujiro Sakuma of Atlanta. The object of the company, as its name implies, is to buy and operate rice lands. VOL. XXII. PANIC AT BARGAIN SALE. RICH GOLD' MINE LOOTED. JAP FIRM INCORPORATED. The Wifu. of Former Senator Burton Accompanies Him to the Missouri Pen and Rents Cottage Nearby. Former United States Senator J. R. Burton of Kansas, accompanied by his wife and niece, arrived in St. Louis Monday morning from his home at Abilene, Kansas, and surrendered himself to begin his sentence of six months in the Ironton, Mo., jail. Apparently he has changed little since he was tried and convicted a year ago in the federal court of having accepted $2,500 for services rendered the Ralto Grain and Security company of St. Louis before the post-office department at Washington in a fraud order proceeding. As he stepped from the train he said: "I am feeling very well, exceedingly well, under the circumstances. Perhaps the trees, the bluffs and nature generally look sweeter to me today than they shall for some time, but I don't let myself think about that. I expect to go to Ironton and begin the life that is laid out for me." Burton spent most of the forenoon in conferring with his attorney and in seeing different persons regarding the arrangement and settlement of various business matters. Shortly before 2 o'clock United States Marshal Morsey appeared at the Union station and Burton surrendered. There was no ceremony in the act. Marshal Morsey simply shook hands with Burton and they talked together a few moments. Then, accompanied by Mrs. Burton and niece, Marshal Morsey and Burton entered the Iron Mountain train for Ironton. No tears were shed. Mr. and Mrs. Burton both appeared cheerful. Mrs. Burton maintained her composure remarkably well and with spirit said: "I never was more proud of my husband than at this moment, than when he was on his way to jail," she declared at the union station. "I know who our friends are and I intend to be friendly with them, but I reserve the right to say who shall be my friends." Assigned to Cell. Burton arrived in Ironton Monday night and after dining with his wife and niece, surrendered himself to the jaller and was assigned to a cell in the Ironton jail. Mrs. Burton accompanied her husband to the sheriff's office, and then went to a cottage she rented in the city, where she will remain until her husband has served his six months' sentence. CLERKS STEAL BANK FUNDS. Sixty Dollars Monthly Salary Made Them "Money, Mad." Despite the efforts of the Union Trust company of Pittsburg, Pa., to keep secret the facts of a robbery that cost the bank a sum variously estimated at from $125,000 to $500,000 the whole story came out when Clinton B. Wray and Clifford S. Hixton, who had pleaded guilty to the robbery, were called for sentence. Each was given ten years in the Western penitentiary. Treasurer Gleffer of the Trust company was first asked by Judge Young how much money had been stolen. He said he did not know positively, but that "it was at least $125,000." Wray was then asked what he had to say. He said he did not know the amount they had taken, but that it was more than $125,000. "We were simply money mad," he said. "We wore clerks at salaries of $60 a month." TO SECURE FOREIGN LABOR. Move Is Made by the Savannah Chamber of Commerce. Through the efforts of the Savannah chamber of commerce, a score of south Georgia towns and cities have, within the past month, become very much interested in a movement to bring desirable labor from England, Germany, Switzerland, Ireland and Scotland. A meeting has been called of representatives of as many towns as care to take interest, to be held in the offices of the Savannah chamber of commerce, for the purpose of organizing a co-operative immigration association. TEN-THOUSAND MEN AFFECTED. Strike of Machinists of Southern Pacific is Threatened. It is said that as a result of the discharge of ten machinists at the Algers, La., shops of the Southern Pacific railroad and because of alleged discrimination of long standing against their organization, ten thousand members of the International Association of Machinists may be called out on strike on that system within a day or two. The men affected are all in what is known as District No. 11, extending from New Orleans to Portland, Ore. Address of a Northern Methodist Minister In Cincinnati—But Little Aid Given San Francisco The negro problem and relief for San Francisco furnished two sensations for the Methodist ministers of a section of Ohio at their weekly meeting in Cincinnati Monday. As a result, President Roosevelt may be asked by the Cincinnati Methodist Episcopal Ministers' Association to give his attention to an address on the "race problem," delivered by Bishop John M. Walden, if the proposition before the association is adopted. In the course of his address Bishop Walden said: "This country will not fulfill its objects until the nation comes to consider its relation with the negro as that of a guardian to a ward. This problem is not a problem of the north alone, nor of the south alone; it is a problem of the nation. This nation, which is so rich and powerful, must solve the race question itself. During the days before the war the idea that the negro was to have when freed his forty acres of land from the government was freely circulated. But when the freedom came no forty acres came with it. "There are three things that enter into the negro question. The thought of implanting in the colored man the idea of industry, the idea of honesty, the idea of home-making. The colored man has been charged with laziness. The northern traveler who goes south and comes home is filled with stories of the lazy colored man he saw about the streets of southern cities. I tell you he saw but few. The colored man will make a good business man and a good citizen if we only give him the chance, but the problem is with us, individually, with the Methodist Episcopal church, collectively, and with the great United States government in a paternal sense." The other sensation was an address by Rev. Dr. F. M. Larkin of San Francisco, in which he made a bitter attack on the Methodists of Ohio, for the small amount of money that they have contributed to the stricken Methodists of San Francisco, Dr. Larkin said: "Not only have the Ohio Methodists failed to give money to the earthquake sufferers of our faith, but they refuse even to hear me, sent here for the purpose, present the matter to them in their pulpits. It is a shame, I say, I have sent out letters to churches all over Ohio begging to be allowed to come and tell of the need of the earthquake sufferers of Methodist faith, and out of a hundred of my requests for a hearing I got three invitations. "From San Francisco, my brother ministers write, 'Unless you send us ald we perish, we cannot preach to starving people nor tell of the goodness of God in poverty stricken homes.'" ABSCONDER SEEMS TO BE SAFE. Uncle Sam Will Hardly Be Able to Extradite Thleving Banker. The United States can take no steps to bring about the extradition of Silveira, the Cuban banker wanted in Havana, and now said to be in Caracas, Venezuela. There is no extradition treaty between the republic of Cuba and Venezuela and the United States cannot interfere in any way in the case according to state department officials. Governor Magoon may ask President Castro of Venezuela to permit Silveira to be taken by Cuban authorities, but the outcome is dependent entirely upon the will of President Castro. RAPIST SENT UP IN A HURRY Negro Is Tried, Convicted and Sent to Pen While Posse Was in Search. Herman Thompson, a negro who attempted to ravish a little white girl, and for whom posses have been scouring Alabama, is serving a twenty-year sentence at Pratt mines penitentiary. At 3 o'clock Monday afternoon the negro was slipped into the Montgomery city court room, pleaded guilty to his crime, was taken to the depot and was put on a special train to Pratt mine, which had right of way to its destination. McManus Tells Interstate Commerce Commission Why He Accepted $5,000 Stiftung in Lied of $9,000. The feature of McManus Investigation, concluded in Kendall, Tenn. Wednesday, by the corporate commerce commission, told the relations of the Southern railway to coal lands and the questions of the supply and distribution was the evidence of T. S. McManus, until recently general superintendent of the Southern railroad. Mr. McManus resigned his position on October to take active management of the Boering and Winona coal mines in the Middlesboro district. He testified that he owned stock in certain Middlesborp coal companies, while serving as general superintendent of the Southern railway. He said he resigned a position paying him $9,000 per year to take a place paying $5,000. This, he said, was because his family was, slick much of the time in, Washington, and he himself was threatened with a physical breakdown. He has moved his family to Knoxville. He denies lip is, or expects to be, an officer of the Manring coal exchange, saying he considers the Sterling mine property a splendid investment and will operate it. He says he owns fifty shares of Sterling Coal company stock, for which he paid cash, or its equivalent, and that it was a bona ride sale. He also sware he owncd 100 shares of Winona Coal company stock paying $3,000 therefor, a par value of which is $10,000. Numerous complaints were made of unfairness of cars to Jellicoil operators by the Southern and the Louisville and Nashville railroads. The complaints against the Louisville and Nashville grew out of conditions prior to the opening of the main line of that company to Knoxville, Atlanta and Southern points in April of last year. The concluding evidence in the Middlesboro case was a cursory examination of the books of the Manning coal exchange in an effort to show the source of revenue and expenses of that firm, Witnesses from the Jellico district testify that the Southern railway is refusing longer to furnish cars to mines located on the Louisville and Nashville tracks, and some of the testimony tended to show that certain mines have been favored in this respect. Witnesses also complained that before the main line of the Louisville and Nashville was opened into Knoxville and Atlanta, that company refused to furnish cars for use to southern markets on the Southern railway lines. The alleged refusal of the Southern Railway company and of the Louisville and Nashville railroad to exchange switching accommodations in Louisville, Nashville, Knoxville and Atlanta was also the subject of bitter complaint. Judge Clements stated that the commission had now no authority to remedy the distress caused by this refusal of the lines to co-operate in this regard. The line of defense of the Southern Railway company, as indicated by the cross-examination of witnesses, is that there is nothing illegal in the company making a contract with the Manring Coal Exchange to furnish the Southern with company coal; and that if there has been an apparent discrimination in the number of cars furnished it has been because the Manring people are supplying company coal. The Southern holds to the policy that where the coal cars available are not sufficient the company must first use the cars to secure sufficient fuel for its own use as a common carrier. All the witnesses examined at Tuesday morning's hearing were persons engaged in the coal industry summoned by attorneys for the commission. $125,000,000 to Run New York. The board of estimate of New York has just agreed upon a tentative budget. It will cost about $125,000,000 to run the city next year. SAVINGS BANK GOES UNDER. Institution at Washington Falls to Weather the Storm. The People's Savings Bank of Washington, D. C., was closed Wednesday by order of the comptroller of the currency. An examination by a national bank examiner showed the institution to be in an insolvent condition. John W. Schoffield has been appointed receiver. The total assets and liabilities are given as $210,369. The bank was incorporated under the laws of West Virginia. It is the second district institution to be closed within a week. Is Appeal of Association of Carriage Builders. Urging That the Convention Be Taken Out of Politics Writing Protest Made Against the Action of the Railroads The most important thing done by the Carriage Builders National Association, in session at Atlanta Wednesday, was the adoption of strong resolutions advocating an entirely new mode of procedure in regard to the tariff. The committee framing the resolutions was appointed at the convention of last year. The resolutions bearing on this subject are as follows: "Whereas, the present tariff schedule was arranged for the purpose of reviving the industries of the United States from the prostration under which they had been suffering for several years, by affording adequate protection to those engaged in manufacture and production in this country against unfair competition on the part of the people engaged in similar manufacture and production in foreign countries, and, "Whereas, the operation of the law containing the schedule has accomplished the purpose for which it was enacted, both in the matter of revising said interests by the protection afforded and in that of raising revenue, and, "Whereas, the sald schedule is now nearly ten years' old and by long operation has become cumbersome on some industries, inadequate for many and so excessive for others, as to lack competitive enterprises under contemplation; and, "Whereas, the popular vote which warranted the Dingley bill was cast for the enactment into law and the maintenance of the principle of protection, and not for any particular schedule; and, "Whereas the principle of protection to american industries can be best maintained, by constant adjustment to altered trade conditions, and will be most injured by permitting protective schedules to remain fixed after they have by economic changes become ineffective, stifling or burdensome to industry; therefore, be it "Resolved, by the Carriage Builders' National Association, in business meeting assembled at Atlanta, Ga., on this the 22d day of October, A. D., 1906, that it is the sense of this association that the present tariff schedule of the Dingley bill should be revisod; that it should be revised at once, and that the revision should be made by the friends of the protective principle while they have the power to carry through the revision, and before the subject can be carried into political strife, into which a purely economic subject should not be permitted to drift. Be it further "Resolved, That the secretary of this association be, and is hereby, directed to have engrossed a copy of the resolutions and to certify the correctness of the said copy and forward to his excellency, Theodore Roosevelt, president, of the United States, for such action as may be deemed best." BECAUSE OF NO SIDEWALKS Free Mail Delivery in New Orleans Is Considerably Curtailed. The cutting off of a considerable area of New Orleans from free mail delivery on account of lack of sidewalks or crossings was announced on Wednesday by the postoffice department, and the order is effective November 1. It was announced that free delivery will be resumed as fast as sidewalk facilities are provided. Mayor Behrman said that he will protest against the curtailment of delivery on the ground that the city has been delayed by court decisions from the extension of sidewalks, and that in a short time this obstacle will have been overcome. Chinese Minister Wanted to Quit Job to McCurn For Mother. The Chinese minister at Washington, Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, recently received news of his mother's death in China. In view of the fact that Chinese custom requires that he should retire from official life and be in mourning for a period of three years, the minister telegraphed his resignation immediately upon receipt of the sad intelligence. The government, however, considered it best not to change its diplomatic representation at Washington at present, and has ordered him to retain his post. CLASH OVER COTTON SEED Merrill War On In Mississippi Between Farmers, and Oil Mill Men-Place is Bone of Contention The clash between the oil mills and the farmers of Mississippi goes merrily on, according to a special from Jackson, and while the true value of cotton seed is being discussed the farmers who can afford to do so are holding back their seed crops in anticipation of better prices. The mill managers, however, say that the offerings are sufficient to keep the plants running for the present at least, they will not pay over $12 per person for seed unless justified, if doing so by higher prices for the reimbursed product. Complaint is made that, in some of the southwestern counties, are offering only $9 per ton but managers say, this offered for seed of alfalfa and that seed in the shape are worth $1 per ton, however, is not, contrasting to farmers, who assert that mill managers claim all seed are damaged and they will use the crop for fertil purposes rather than sell at the price quoted. They contend that the farmer is not justified in selling his seed less than $14 per ton, when fertilizers are selling at $19 per ton, it is wisdom to scatter the seeds the fields rather than allow the oil mills to take the crop. The oil market is still hovering around 28 cents per gallon, with meat at from $20 to $22 per ton, and hills at 30 cents per hundred. So long as these prices prevail mill managers declare that they will not pay more than $12 per ton for cotton seed, and the combination looks effective. The Mississippi Cotton Oil company has a large number of plants in the state and a thorough understanding exists among the managers, the situation having been fully discussed at the meeting in Jackson last week. On the other land, the organizations of farmers, consisting of the local associations of the Southern Cotton Association and county branches of the Farmers' Union, declare that they will close down every oil mill In the state rather than sacrifice their seed at present prices, and it looks like the war is on in earnest and will be fought to a finish. There is no doubt that the farmers can control the market if they will stand together and implicitly obey the resolutions adopted, and the addresses being sent out by officers. In former years the oil mills have had everything practically their own way, and prices promulgated invariably prevailed until such time as it became apparent that there would be a seed shortage and managers commenced an active war of competition. This season, however, they are apparently standing shoulder to shoulder. ACTRESS VICTIM OF THIEF. Anna Held Robbed of $150,000 in Gems—Cash and Papers Taken. The police and a detective agency at Cleveland, Ohio, are working diligently to discover the whereabouts of $150,000 worth of jewelry which Anna Held, the actress, reported was stolen from her on a Pennsylvania train while coming into Cleveland early Monday morning. The gems, said to include many very elaborate and valuable pieces, were stolen from Miss Held's state room while she and her husband, Florence Ziegfried, Jr., were temporarily absent from it. The jewels were in a small hand satchel, which always contained over $6,000 in money and papers, bank books, etc., which Miss Held said she valued at $100,000. NEGROES STOP "CLANSMAN." On Their Protest Mayor of Philadelphia Calls Off Play. Mayor Weaver of Philadelphia on Tuesday issued an order suppressing the further production there of the drama, "The Clansman," which began Monday night, and was to have a week's engagement at the Walnut street theater. The mayor's action was prompted by the demonstration Monday night at the theater by several thousand, negroes. Magoon Finds 1,660 Patients in Cuban Asylum in Quarters For Only 400. Governor Magoon visited the National Insane asylum in Havana Sunday afternoon and discovered a deplorable state of affairs there. One thousand, six hundred and sixty persons of both sexes were crowded into a filthy and dilapidated building with a capacity of 400 persons. They were sleeping on broken cots, relics of the last American occupation. Congress made an appropriation to enlist the asylum, but the money was expended. ee =) % ‘ : - 2 — ¥ ~ 7% = eet ew = 4 P ke a ' "Largest Sick dnd. Death; A zs Sot uy ie fe 5 . 7 ° 4 Ay Pe 7” 2B.

Extending the Parcels Post. Ore of the sérious questions to come before the next congress Is the extension of the parcels service of the United States pcostofice system. | The extension is said to be backed by a powerful Ilcbby, maintained by the | mail-order houses of the great cities. Its success will nican serious injury, Sf not ruin, to many retaih stores in the conntry and the swaller cities, /, On one side it is agreed that the extension will be a gréat advantage to eonsumers and uzers, especially of dry gcods, as it will erable them to purchase in their own homes at the prices chaiged in the Jarger cities and will save them the retailers’ profit. On the other hand, it is contended that it is not fair to the refailer, who must pay freight rates, which are the same for a long distance as fur a short one. The same 10-cent stamp which carries dress goods from New York to 2 town in New sersey, 50 miles away, will carry the same pack age to a town 2,000 miles away, but the storekeeper who must have his steck hauled 2,000 miles must pay for his distaace, To get to the bottom of the mat ter, as a question of public policy, the retail dealer is necessary for the convenlence and comfort of his neigh- porhoot. He supplies at skort notice and in small quantities and gives credit where it is needed and de served, and he ought to have a fait chance as against his larger com. petitor in the great cities.

There's a thrilling, tugging feeling On each heartstring that I know, There's a perfume in my nostrils From the fields of long ago, There's a vision in my memory Making all the world grow dim, Taking me away back yonder Where us fellows used to swim. And the vision's central picture Is a laughing blue-eyed maid Standing in the rippling shallows Where we used to go wade; I can see her pink toes gleaming In the rippling stream where she, With her skirts held safe from wetting, Laughs across the years at me. I would rather be back yonder, Back 'neath childhood's skies of blue Than to count my wealth in millions; If I could go dancing through, That we stream we loved to wade in, Climn the trees we used to climb, I would never wish to grow up, I'd be happy all the time. Two Meetings A railway station—filled with a crowd of folk, some laughing, some crying, some pretending—some not. Victoria—at 11 o'clock, and the boat train for Dover. "Good-by, Jim, take care of yourself!" The tall girl gathered her worn cloak closer round her—the lady who held the door handle of the next compartment, a first-class, was robed in sables. "I wish I were coming too!" "So do I, old lady." A handsome man bent forward on the seat of the third-class carriage, and his hand closed over her slim unglove fingers with a tender pressure. His blue eyes looked most suspiciously moist—but what of that? It is not every one who can afford to be callous. "It seems such a long time—three years, Jim!" the girl said again, and there was a break in her voice. "And it's such a chance, a merger—" "A mere chance—yes," the man echoed; "but we must just trust to chance, Monica; it's the only thing to be done, dear. Keep up a good heart, because I shall be coming back in three years' time. Think of that, little one. Three years, perhaps today, this very day, you may be standing at this very station, waiting for my train to come in; and I shall dash out—I shall be hungering for the sight and feel of you, darling, and you will throw your arms around my neck—" "Jim!" the tears so bravely withheld up till now overflowed at last, and fell on to the neat but worn cloak. The lady in the furs turned at the sound of the pain-filled tones, and her own voice grew a little husky as the trains steamed off. "Good-bye, Monica, my darling!" 'A moment later Monica Ward was standing on an empty platform, with an empty, aching heart: A hand touched her shoulder. "Can I take you anywhere?" a pleasant, sympathetic voice said. It was the lady in furs. "I always think the first few moments are the worst—afterward—" "Afterward," repeated Monica in dull tones. "Oh! afterward one gets accustomed to it," returned the other lightly, "and one wonders why one felt so much. Come, will you let me just drop you anywhere?" It seemed all one to Monica Ward what she did, and where she went. She nodded, and tried to smile. "Thank you," she said, "it is very good of you to trouble yourself about a stranger—" "After all—we are sisters," the other said a little dryly. "Come!" And for the next half hour Monica bowled along in the lady's carriage, behind a pair of prancing chestnut horses. She did not remember till she stood once more in the little room, which looked so deserted now that Jim had gone, that she had never found out the name of her friend in need. And the days slipped into weeks and the weeks into months, and all the while Jim Ward, in a distant country, was trying to court the fortune which had failed to smile on him in England. "It's due now, miss, quite due, and I don't think it's more than a few minutes late." Monica Ward, tall and slim, with the pretty color coming and going in her soft cheeks, stood once more on the platform awaiting the train. Suddenly there was a noise—a puffing, panting sound, and the train was in. Monica's heart beat fast, and she was so excited that she could hardly see anything in front of her. Jim was coming home—home—. Was this Jim?—this man coming toward her with Jim's face, and yet not his face—with a rolling gait and unsteady eyes? She shuddered; her color forsook her cheeks, her eyes looked fright- ened—her feet shook so that she could hardly stand. After all, as the other woman had said, one gets accustomed to it. Better—far better—if he had stayed away altogether than return to her like this! Involuntarily she took a step backward; the advancing man noticed it and her. "My pretty dear!" he cried thickly—and Monica was just recolling in horror when a man laid his arm on hers. "Monica!" a well-known voice said. She turned—Jim, the real Jlm, was standing behind her smiling and holding out his hands. "Monica!" he cried, "surely you haven't forgotten me?" And then, somehow or another, she found herself in his arms—sobbing and laughing in one breath out of sheer joy and relief. "That other man!" she cried a little incoherently, "he was so like you—that I thought it was you, Jim—" "Monica!" returned her husband reproachfully, "and that fellow was drunk! Never mind, darling," slipping her hand through his arm, "come home—somebody has come to claim him—somebody—some poor devil of a somebody." Monica looked half fearfully across the platform. Not far away stood the man whom she had mistaken for Jim, standing surrounded by porters, and a small crowd of gapers—a footman was urging, imploring. By his side, bravely facing them all, stood some one whom she recollected as in a dream. "Afterward, one gets accustomed to it." The words cleared Monica's brain, they echoed in her ears—the bright, panting engine throbbed to the same refrain. Ah! she remembered. It was her friend of that black day three years ago, whom she had not seen since. What chance—what irony of fate had brought them together again. "Jim," she said, suddenly. "That man over there—he won't move—they can't do anything with him. Can't you, won't you, go over and see if you can get him away from those gaping crowds? That's his wife—she was kind to me—the day you left. Ah! Jim, if it had been you!" Jim Ward needed no second bidding. With a few steady strides he reached the little group. The lady in furs was pleading, scolding, threatening, but all to no purpose. What she could not accomplish, Jim's strong voice and steady, authoritative manner did. In a few minutes he had escorted the traveler to the waiting carriage and left him there. Monica stood just outside the door, and he linked her arm in his once more as they walked to the cab. "How could I have thought it was you, Jim?" she said in a softly happy voice. "I'm so glad—and yet—that day, that miserable day—I envied her!" They were in the cab, and he took her in his arms and kissed her. "But you don't, now?" he asked passionately. "No, I don't, now," she answered in tones of deep content; "I almost think—it was worth letting you go—to have you back again, Jim!" And for the moment he thought so too. "Black and White." Grumbling Husbands. As the grumbling husband is practically unknown in the United States the letters which appear daily in the columns of your paper are most interesting and illuminating to an American woman. With us the man who marries takes a wife to be the partner of his joys and sorrows. Furthermore, the American wife is quite as fastidious about her food as is her husband, and would as soon resent "stewed bacon and burnt eggs," the result being that while she may not actually prepare it, she can at least direct her servants in the preparation of the meals. To the young and "Unhappy Wife," whose letter appeared in Friday's issue and whose eyes "fill with tears," I would say that tears and crinolines went out of style at about the same period in the United States, and that an American woman would feel that she was taking a mean advantage of her husband should she take refuge in tears. Don't feed your husband on delicate entrees; give him roast beef, boiled potatoes and stewed fruit. It is the menu most appreciated by the average Englishman, and it surely requires no very high order o. intelligence to cook it. Be your husband's equal, not his dependent, and abave all things can't whine.—"American Woman," in London Telegraph. Aztec Women. The feminine direct descendants of the famous Aztecs are tiny creatures, exquisitely formed and refined in feature. The carry the head with the uphearing grace of the full-blooded Indian; their skins are not red, but a clear, smooth copper color that shines like gold in the sun; their hair is coarse and black as ebony, and they are decorated with bright feathers and gay ornaments. These women make the most wonderful pottery that comes to us from Mexico, for they have kept the old Aztec forms and decorations in their art, and they also weave wonderful baskets and do exquisite embroidery. Scott Valley (Cal.) Advance. Under the workman's sickness insurance law about $9,500,000 was spent in the treatment of tuberculosis patients in the years 1901 to 1905. NEW IDEAS in TOILETTES THE TEA CUP New York City.—The jaunty Eton promises to continue its favor indefinitely and will be as much worn during the warmer weather. This one includes a vest that is exceedingly chic in effect and also is made with a girdle to match. In the illustration ```markdown ``` chestnut brown chiffon broadcloth is trimmed with a simple banding and with large ornamental buttons, the vest being of the material, but when liked this last can be of silk, of velvet or of some contrasting color. Cloth is always handsome for cool weather suits, but Panama cloth, cheviot and homepuns all are equally correct, while the models also can 15 be used for between seasons wear it made from the lighter fabrics, such as mohair and taffeta. The Eton is made with fronts and back and the vest portions. The vest portions are joined to the fronts on indicated lines, and the neck edge is finished with the shaped roll-over collar. Darts successfully effect the fitting but are concealed by the trimming. The sleeves are comfortably full, gathered into bands and finished with deep roll-over cuffs. The girdle is made in sections and fits the figure with perfect smoothiness and snugness and can be either entirely separate or attached to the jacket at the back, as preferred. The quantity of material required for the sixteen year size is three and three-eighth yards twenty-one, two and three-quarter yards twenty-seven or one and three-quarter yards forty-four inches wide with nine yards each of plain and fancy braid. Leavy Silks Coming In. The stiff, heavy silks, the kind which grandmother used to wear, and which would "stand alone," are coming in in obedience to the new princess and Empire modes. Electric Bulb Fan. A new fan for the theatre, says Style, has a tiny electric bulb in the handle, enabling one to read one's program while the house is in darkness. New Street Hats. Many of the new street hats are turned up sharply on the left side and are set squarely on the head. Colored Lace Scarfs. Sarfs of lacey dyed to match the accessories of the gown are one of the season's most attractive fancies. Imagine, such a scarf in pale lilac with a gown besprinkled with delightfully natural wisteria blossoms. Embroidery on Boleros. One of the bolero coats seen with a dull blue linen skirt was fashioned entirely of English eyelet embroidery lined with the blue linen, the edges turned in and given a frill of Valenciennes lace. Another modish bolero is fashioned of huntsman's pink taffeta in four pointed tabs, with the seams left open from the bottom for three inches to shop a bit of pretty butter-colored lace. Fancy Blouse. Such a fancy blouse as this one is much to be desired for informal dinners, the theatre and all occasions of the sorty and will be found effective made from any of the pretty soft silk and wool materials of the season. In the illustration silk veiling is combined with lace and touches of velvet, but there is almost no limit to be to the possibilities of the model. The lines of the front give the becoming tapering effect, while there is also a deep girdle that can be of the material or of some soft silk in the same shade as may be preferred. Radium silk, chiffon, messaline, crepe de Chine and silk all are suitable and in every way to be desired, whether the model is used for the separate waist or the entire gown. The foundation is a fitted lining and on this lining are arranged the chemisette, the full fronts and the ```markdown ``` full back, the closing being made invisibly at the back. The sleeves are in three-quarter lengths, shirred in a decidedly novel and most effective manner, and are finished with frills of the material. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and three-quarter yards twenty-one, three and a half yards twenty-seven or one 1 all. four-eighth yards forty-four inches wide with one yard of all-over lace, three and one-half yards of banding and four yards of lace for frills. ALL MATERIAL ONE SUBSTANCE Are the Elements Transmutable, and Is There a Universal Solvent? Chemistry has proved that the eighty elements are not independent, ultimate things. Astronomy and chemistry together have rendered it probable that all the elements are simply stages in evolution of matter from simple into complex forms, the organic life which exists on the earth being simply the latter end of this process of evolution from the simple toward the complex. Physics has found a way of producing out of ordinary atoms minute cathode ray particles which are much smaller than atoms, and has also found that certain of our heaviest elements are in the very act of spontaneously transmuting themselves into simpler forms. To our first question, then, as to whether the elements are transmutable in the laboratories of nature, we may return the answer that certain of them, at least, are transmutable; and it is probable that in nature's laboratories all of them are being produced from some simple, primorial stuff. Can man effect the transmutation? Thus far he has indeed learned how to obtain cathode ray particles from any of the different forms, of matter; but he has not learned how to produce, by any of the agencies at his command, any of the eighty recognized elements form any other. He has caught nature in the very act of doing it herself; but none of the agencies now known to the chemist or to the physicist appears to be able either to accelerate or to retard the process—that is, to change in any way the rate at which radio-active substances are spontaneously transmuting themselves into other substances. It seems probable that the "universal solvent" which will produce this transmutation, and which is perhaps producing it now in the stars, is temperature; that the old Greek philosophers were right in assuming that a proper admixture of their old element, fire, would produce any desired transformation. But unfortunately the temperatures required to produce these changes are probably forever beyond man's reach. The relatively little changes which we are able to produce on earth have no measurable effect at all upon the transmutations which uranium, radium or thorium are undergoing. Although, then, our modern science has opened out before us a view which the ancient alchemists never had of the wonderful operations going on in nature's laboratories, we are at the present day just as impotent as they in the face of the problem of the transmutation of any element into any other element. If the secret of this transmutation should ever be found we should be able to unlock almost infinite stores of energy which we now know to be wrapped up in the atoms of the elements. Curle proved in 1903 that the disintegration of a gramme of radium liberates at least 300,000 times as much heat energy as is evolved in the combustion of one gramme of coal. Furthermore, it is extremely probable that similar enormous quantities of energy are locked up in the atoms of all substances. J. J. Thompson estimates that enough energy is stored up in one gramme of hydrogen to raise a million tons through a hundred yards. It is not improbable that it is the transformation of this sub-atomic energy into heat which maintains the temperature of the sun. Should man ever be able to unlock this energy he would doubtless look back upon the day in which his progenitors burned coal to warm their houses and to drive their engines with the same curiosity and pity with which we look back upon the day when our naked ancestors plowed their fields with a crooked stick and lift their fires with the spark from a flint.—Technical World Magazine. Railroad Training. So many men have been leaving the railroad service for other lines of business that it is exciting comment. This state of affairs, says the Nashville American, is attributed more to the demand for competent business men than to the dissatisfaction of the railroad men themselves. Every commercial concern in the country is constantly on the lookout for better men, and they have found that the best business men come from the soliciting ranks on the railroads. The salaries of railroad men have remained about as they were a number of years ago, while commercial concerns have elevated salaries in proportion to the real worth of the man, taking his earning capacity into consideration. Railroads are paying according to the rank and style of the position rather than for the capabilities of the man, and consequently have not increased salaries very materially. The cost of living has also increased very materially for railroad men in the past few years, and as the salaries are not advanced to keep pace with the increase, many railroad men are finding it more profitable to engage in other business. Unquestionably a good railroad training is the best a man can have who proposes to be a business success. A traveling freight or passenger agent, who can successfully fill a position with a railroad, is usually thoroughly competent to hold any important commercial position, and many of them are leaving the railroads for more profitable employment. In Rome's cemeteries over 6,000,000 people are buried... ROPULAR SCIENCE Dr. Jean Charcot is organizing an expedition to the South Pole and the Belgian Oceanographic Society one to the North Pole. The range of years over which cancer is likely to occur is practically the same in both sexes—46.44—50.7 the mean age of incidence of the disease is 55.2 years in males and 49.9 years in females. Instead of the long celluloid film, a London photographer uses circular glass, plates for the cinematograph. The pictures are taken in a spiral and a plate fifteen inches in diameter holds several hundred, recording a story lasting about four minutes. Aluminum, cadmium, zinc, magnesium, etc., affect the photographic plate, though not classed as radioactive. A late remarkable observation is that the electric spark sometimes increases the effect, sometimes lessens it; while this influence—though so superficial that slight sand-papering removes it—persists for months. In the latest fight against the rabbit pest in Australia, the attempt is made to destroy the animals in their burrows. A specially constructed boiler is used with a length of flexible metallic hose, and steam at high pressure is forced into the burrow, after first closing all openings except that for the hose. The early results have been very encouraging. Ordinary clothing, it is poured out, keeps the skin of man in almost complete darkness. A London physician advises that consumptives wear white clothing and that it be of linen or cotton, never of silk. Blue and violet pass the higher rays fairly white and might be worn, but red, black, yellow and green transmit little but heat rays, and should be avoided. Two languages have died out in modern Europe, according to R. W. S. Lach-Szyrna. In a recent paper to British archaeologists, he doubted whether anybody could fix the time or place when Prussian disappeared, for the death of a language may be a lingering and obscure one, but Cornish seems to have passed away in its English home in quito recent times. The last Cornish drama bears date of 1611. A considerable Cornish literature is preserved in manuscript and printed works, and the language has left its impression in the names of places and families. A few words, including the numerals, are still used by the miners. According to a description of his experiments given by Mr. Marconi, the confining of the electric waves used in wireless telegraphy to certain predetermined directions is a problem admitting of an easy, if not a complete, solution. A simple method is to substitute for the usual vertical antenna employed as radiator or absorber of the waves, a straight horizontal conductor, placed at a comparatively small elevation above the surface of the ground or water. Experience shows that the radiation reaches a maximum in the vertical plane of this horizontal wire, and gradually dies out on each side of it. Similarly at the receiving-station the maximum effect of the waves is felt in the vertical plane of the horizontal absorbing conductor. To attune the transmitting and receiving apparatus, their conductors are pointed in the same direction. THE BRIDE'S FIRST KISS. "Best Man's" Protest Against Plea For Its Abolition. The 'Vicar of Tintwistle, England, having declared that the "foolish and irreverent" custom of kissing the bride after a wedding ceremony should be stopped, he is thus answered by one signing himself "Six Times a Best Man" in the London Mail; "As I have on six occasions filled the invidious position of best man, I trust you will grant me space to deliver an emphatic protest against the abolition of this good old English custom, which is, apparently, wished by some clergymen and many curates. "Is there to be no reward for the unfortunate 'best man,' who has borne for hours on his shoulders all the worries and responsibilities of the important ceremony; the ralying of the trembling bridegroom, the supervision of all the social arrangements, and the departure of the happy pair from the church, to say nothing of the lavish scattering of largesse to every hanger-on within and without, for which, by the way, no is very seldom reimbursed? I repeat, is there no reward for all these manifold difficulties successfully accomplished? "To the bride and bridegroom it is the solemnly joyous moment of their lives. All the playfulness of eager friends and even the ecclesiastical chivalry of the minister should not be allowed to rob the parties of a kiss, the fer-embrance of which will remain with the happy pair all their lives." English Praise of Baseball. In many ways baseball is a game particularly suitable for the youth of England. To excel at it requires many of those qualities which are particularly lacking in British sport generally.—Krys's Magazine, London. RS oo F rw. ol. Yaar ROD ES.

On friday might fase the al. rectors of The \WVage Earners Loan and Investment Company held their annual meeting. The report of the Secretary and Treasurer showed that the busi- ness during the past year was a phenominal success in every re- spect. This report has been turned over to the auditing com. mittee. The directors after placing the required per cent te the surplus fund declared a dividend of 12 percent payable on and after Nos, 1, thereby making glad the hearts of hundreds of stock- ‘holders. Next week we will be able to give our readers the figures which show the increase in busi- ness, Have You Thought of It? In acommunication which we publist this moraing commenting on an editoria in the Morning News Saturday, atteatior is called to the fact-that in this county the crime which was the alleged cause of th Adanta riot is practically unknown. And why? The percentage of Negroes in the population of this city is larger than ic Atlanta and the Negroes are from every part of this state, and of several of the other states. Is this immunity {com the crime in question due to the fact that the Negroes ate accorded more kindly treat ment here than in Atlauta? Is it because ia the {ministration of the laws jus tice is fore even handed? Itis because ‘the attitufle of the white people, asa whole towarda'fhe Negroes is of character to In: crease tHe self-respect of the Negroes, o1 ists someof the Northern papers ‘are saying, that Savannah isa distinctly South. emcity, while Atianta is not, and that therefore the Negroes here have a greater respect for the white people thaa they have in Atlanta, We do not undertake to give the reason but simply point aut the fact, As a rule the feeling in this city between the races is Kindly, and there if never lacking out- spoken disapproval whenever injastice is doge Negroes The Negroes are accord. ed their rights uader the law and there is '& very general willingness that they shall not be hampered in their endeavors to im- ‘prove their material condition. | Criminals of the class that provoke ‘mob violence are not assured of greater toleration here than elsewhere in the state but before mob violence would be invoked public seatiment would insist upon the es- tablishment of the guilt of the person upcn whom suspicion rested. ‘There is no such feeling as would tolerate the killing of lanocent persons simply because they were of the face that furnished the crim. inal who committed the heinous crime. It Js of the utmost importance that the Kindly feeling between the races should be preserved, It is impossible to say what the solution of the socalled race problem is to be. No one is in a position to say whether the Negroes will be deported, as the Char- leston News and Courier advises, whether they will migrate to some other section of the country or whether they will re- main just where they are, The best opinionis they will stay where they are, but.whether they stay or go it is better for both races tbat they should live in har- mony while together, and that there should be no ill feeling onthe part of either: The best way to maintain that condition of affairs is for the superior and domina- ting race totreat the iaferior race with ab- solute falrness in all things and see that the justice that is dealt out shall be even- haaded—Morning News. _“Boneral Reform.

A Tribute to Jas WW Zachery oe Attn come iota cur midst sat eal ‘er saw fit to come into our midst adi call away one who was loved and well-thoughi of by all who kiew him, God be praised, His mighty work. for He and He alone Knows what is best for every one. He took away.a worthy and a mianly youns man from a-worthy mother and ‘father, Mr, and Mrs. J. B. Zachery. James gaye up his place of employment July 21, 1906 and by the special attention given bim was out of bed until October 7, 1906. His worthiness was the special way in which he looked after, cared for and loved his parents, sisters and brother, I is stated authoratatively that at all times the principal division of his earnings went tohis mother, and from personal know: edge, I know this to be a fact. He further believed in the protection of his sisters, and in doing that, he had the highest re- gayd for other ladies. Under no circum- stances would he speak evil of any wo- man. A kind word and a helping hand_as far as be was able, was always his desire. He was not a christian the better por. tion of his life but always had a certain amount of faith and belief. During his entire tickness he prayed and always de- sired prayers but it mattered not who prayed to bim, it seemed that he appreci- ated it, but at all times desired the pray- ers of his mother in preference to any one elte. ‘Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth. thee.” This quotation from the bible he firmly believed in and really put into execution, He loyed his father and mother and honor- ed them. Saturday night October 12, 1906, it was a great pleasure for me to be with him the entire night and this was the night he began to weaken and realized the meaning of his end, but thru the whole night he talked freely and at each hour of prayer, which his mother rendered at his request, he listened attentively and in some cases he would join her. At about 1 o'clock Sunday morning he called his mother and aunt t6 his bed side and after raising bis eyes to the heavens mut- tered in subdued but in audible volce: “Lord have mercy.” Then turning to his mother and aunt, Mrs. Carey, spoke in a plain and firm voice—“Mama dear, will you all promise me one thing and that is nottoflgrieve after met I be- lieve that there isa Just God and a final resting pla¢e ;1 am alright, I have sceo the way.” From that be dosed off and and rested well until Monday morning at 6a,m., Whence he departed this life in peace to live forever in another world, The traits of many men are marked by the good and bad deeds done and shown to the outer world, but the best deeds any one has,can or ever willdo, are those deeds done to or shown for the one who has done much for our welfare and uplift of our livesta mother, Over fn that beau- tiful land'to which according to his last statements as to his faith we believe and haye no other reason to doubt he bas gone and there, he is out of pain and free from suffering which he for a short while en- dured on this earth ; and when we gather at the river, what a sweet consolation it is co note the fact that we will meet hii on the other slde. May he sleep in peace. Tames Zachery was born June 2, 1873, died Oct." 14, 1906. He leaves a father Mr. James P, Zachery, a mother, Mva.

Any Irishman can do at” « ‘“Well?”—Chicago Tribune, AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY REV. I. W. HENDERSON. Brooklyn, N. Y.—Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on the theme, "Christian Character," the Rev. I. W. Henderson, pastor, took as his text I. Peter 2:9: "That ye may show forth the excellencies of Him who halled called you out of darkness into His marvellous light." He said: Character is determined in the terms of an exercised moral and spiritual consciousness. Character at its highest is conformity to the best moral and spiritual consciousness that is within us. It is both the consummation and the limitation of the will of man. It is not only a matter of the outward life but it is also the indication and the manifestation of an inward grace. Character is the sum of any man's characteristics of soul and social life. Motive is, in the last analysis, more of account than the outward act. Feeling is a factor in the human life. Intentions must be counted. Desires may draw down or up. But with all these in the tally, you are what you will to be. More than your will desires you will not become. Character is not only what you wish you were, nor what the world thinks you are, nor yet what you consider yourself to be; but what you are. It is neither your reputation nor your record, save *rs* those two align to the measure of manhood according to the rule of God. Character is the mark of lenier worthiness as well as the emblem of a good life before the open eyes of men. Character is not merely honesty, it is more. It is not only outward purity but also inward cleanliness of heart. It means not only to walk just within the statutes of the penal code, and just beyond the clanging-iron of a prison door, but rather to love righteousness and to practice uprightness because they are right. Character is virtue, honor, integrity, godliness. It is deserved reputation and the glory of a well-spent life. It is a mark and the victory of moral worth. More to be desired is it than great riches and its ripe, rich, satisfying fruitage is peace and匀itude of heart. Christian character is conformity to the character of Christ. It is to bear the express image of the saving Son of God in the inner man and through all the problems of the social life. As the Saviour bore the impress of the divine will of our common Father; as the taithful Friend of men showed forth the mind and the manner of our God, so must we as true men and women, disciples of our Lord, be sealed with the evidences of divine guidance. The highest character of this life and for the world beyond is that which finds in Jesus Christ the ideal and harmonious working of the will of man with the divine. Character, as we Christians view it, is concerned not only with the Christian's conduct, not only with his doings in the field of human action; but also with his trueness to his personality and to his God. Christian character includes, for it can never exclude, a due and a willing regard for man's obligations toward his Maker. It affirms the basic necessity for absolute and unwerving loyalty to self. It insists and asserts that motive is more than manner, while demanding that all social responsibilities be met squarely, honorably, manlyly and in the fear of God. The character of Christ is positive. Christ is remarkable not for the things that He refrained from doing but rather is He ideal in the acts of nobleness, virtue, good-heartedness which He did. His was no pung soul. Obeying the words that came out of Sinai's mighty glory, He wont beyond them. Keeping well within the requirements of Pharisaic legalism, He pushed on and out and up, above and beyond and ahead of all the self-complacency and moral blindness of the cecclesiastics, and did things positive and powerful for men and for God. Feeling within His heart—the call of immortal duty the Christ exemplified in His own life those qualities of character which have for all time secured Him in His proud place as the ideal man and proved to a multitude in this sad and sinning world His Godhood and His grace divine. To you and to me the call comes down the centuries bidding us "to show forth the excellencies of Him who hath called us out of darkness into His marvelous light." Having accepted the Christ and been scaled with His love, we must bear in our lives the express image—that is to say the signet stamp, that is to say the character—of the Son of God. The character of Christ presents to us a double study and preserves to us a two-fold duty and example. Within the characteristic attributes of holiness and righteousness are comprised all the qualities that pertain to the Saviour in His social sphere. Holiness toward God, righteousness toward self and society, these two are the broad truths that come to us from the character of the Christ and which summon us to show forth His glory and His love. Spirituality and morality. A sanctified sense of oneness with the Father, a courageous determination to stand square before society and upright at the bar of his own conscience, these are the two great lessons for us from the character of Christ, and the mighty truths within which all else in the world of human conduct is embraced. To be holy is to be sanctified—that is to say pure. Not merely purity before men but a radical purity that really goes back to the root of things and that enables the man to be 'fit, through the grace of God in Jesus Christ, to stand before His Father and His Maker and be glad. Purity is not merely a matter of soap and water but of inward wholesomeness. Christ cares not whether your hands are dirty with the molder's clay. He does weep over a soiled and sullied soul. "What an antiseptic," says Lovell, "is a pure life." What possibility indeed for good and for uplift, an for God are ever within its power. But it must be healthfully, honorably pure, with the richness of holiness all about it ere it can count for most and reap, a heavy harvest unto God. Righteousness is rectitude. That is to say, erectness. Righteousness is uprightness. Uprightness is straightness, moral rectillinearness. Righteousness means not only to pay your debts promptly, to keep well within the limits of the law, not only to respect the rights of others and the mandates of society through fear of the consequences of sin, but rather to seek to do good because it ennobles, to think of the needs of others because they are our brothers in Christ. Righteousness is uprightness in the home, in the church, in business, in politics, secretly, socially, in sunshine and in shadows, everywhere and at all times. Righteousness is virtue. To be virtuous is to be a full fledged man, Virtue is vigorous with virility. Etymologically it is sprung from the loins of Latin manhood. Virtue is goodness which has stood the strain, which has weathered the trials of temptation, which has fought a manly fight, and won out. It is the glory of a good man's life. Virtue has grit. It is no weakness to be pure. True men do honor to be a blameless name and only a fool will laugh at nobleness of heart. Righteousness is justice. Legality and justice are not co-terminous. Justice is the ideality of law. Justice co-ordinates the right. The law often hardly approximates it. Justice enquires not what are my rights but what are my duties. The just man sympathizes with the longings and the needs of men and sustains their aims. The "legal" man may oft forget that God exists and right should reiter that law may be evaded. In the apocryphal Wisdom of Solomon we find these words: "Honorable old age is not that which standeth in length of time, nor is its measure given by number of years, but understanding is gray hairs unto men and an unspotted life is ripe old age." Virtue, justice, uprightness, these are the things that count for righteousness and the man of years is the man who is godly. Christian character is the need and it should be the hope of us all. To the men who are Christ's is given the leadership of the world. Let the salt retain its savior and all the leaven its uplifting power. If we are Christ's let us show forth His holiness and righteousness. If we are to lead, let us be fit. It has been well and truly said, that "immoral life in one leader of the people shall more pernicious than a whole street full of impurities in the lower quarters of the community." Character county. Christian character is the consumption of human power and of human beauty. To bear the impress of the character of Christ is to be worth while to men and to God. Holiness brings happiness. Righteousness is more of account than riches. Purity is peace. Virtue is vigor and strength and the mark of moral decency. Justice is profitable and well-plaining to God. Moral recititude and a holy life are the riches of the soul laid up in the treasuries of heaven. Character is good. Christian character is glorious. To "show forth the excellencies" of Jesus is the business of His church. The Soul's Growth. Temptations do not decrease, but rather increase, with the growth of the soul. The little man fighting his little battles visibles that he were a great man so that the more easily he might overcome them; but when he becomes great himself he sees that storms circle the higher altitudes that make the petty battles of the lower level seem insignificant. Many seem to think that temptation lays its hands only upon our weak spots. But think a minute. Here is a lawyer who has little ability, seldom wins a case, always gets on the off side of a jury, and is notoriously incompetent to plot a case or plead it. Does that man know what it means to have a confessed criminal offer him a hundred thousand dollars to get him clear? Does he know what it is to have a princely fortune dangled before his face if, in legislative halls, he will stand on the wrong side of the question for just one hour? He knows absolutely nothing about it. So it is in the Christian life; the stronger we grow to be, the stronger will be our temptations. The nearer we grow into the likeness of Christ, the fiercer will be the onslaughts of the enemy. We cannot escape life's battles by moving into a different or higher sphere. Each stage or sphere has its own temptations. As Jesus was tempted, so will be His disciples. But, as He was made perfect through sufferings, so our trials, which are but for the moment, will work for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.—Rami's Horn. Winnowed Wheat. A good man does good merely by living. You are not very holy if you are not very kind. God often comes to visit us, but generally we are not in. What is each man but one little thread in the loom of God? Bind together, your spare hours by the cord of some definite purpose. No grip is so hard to shake off as that of early religious convictions. Our remedies frequently fall, but Christ as the remedy for sin never falls. God's, silences may be long, but they are never the silences of forgetfulness. A little thorn may rend the finest fabric; so may a little sin mar the fairest soul. There may be movement, but there can be no progress, in traveling without God. Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul, and the heart of man knoweth no more fragrant. We sleep in peace in the arms of God when we yield ourselves up to His Providence, in a delightful consciousness of His mercies; no more restless uncertainties, no more impatience at the place we are in, for it is God who puts us there and who holds us in His arms. Can we be unaware where He has placed us? THANKFUL FOR THAT. Mother—Did the lady thank you for giving her your seat in the car?

Immense Size of Mexican Ranches Ranches in Mexico are of no mean size. Ex-Gov. Terrazas of Chihuahua has 17,000,000 acres. The Zuloa family is said to hold 5,000,000. Properties of 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 acres are not uncommon. Among the Americans who have large ranches may be mentioned Fleming & Ross the Riverside Cattle Company, with 2,000,000 acres and a fine herd of Hereford; Phoebe Hearst of California, who has a magnificent place west of Minnesota; the Millers, and the three Morman colonies. Gordon, Ironside & Ferriss, a Canadian Company, have 1,000,000 acres; Lord Beresford, a relative of the Admiral, has a large ranch where he raises fine horses; another Englishman, named Irnstead owns a large property. Smaller places of from 40,000 acres upward are numerous. The price of land now runs from 50 to 75 cents gold per acre, with a strong tendency to rise.—Modern Mexico. Joshua's Limit. In the staging of one of his earlier plays, Joseph Jefferson, accompanied by a friend, attended a rehearsal, at which a lively disagreement arose between two of the actresses as to the possession of the centre of the stage during a certain scene. While the manager poured oil upon the troubled waters Jefferson sat carelessly swinging his feet from the rail of an adjoining box. The friend could stand it no longer. "Good lord, Jefferson!" he exclaimed, "this will ruin your play. Why don't you settle matters. You could if you only would." Jefferson shook his head gravely, but with a twinkle in his eye. "No, George," he repiled, "the Lord only made one man who could ever manage the sun and moon, and you remember even he let the stars alone."—Harper's Weekly. They Used the Tub. Douglas Watson believes that it is the environment of a man that makes him clean or unclean, as the caso may be. "It is all very well," he said, "to say that people can't take a bath because they don't like to. The reason they don't use the tub is because there are none in the house. Now I am building small cottages for poor people and eachone has a bath tub. Now we will call on those people one day and see that I am right." Mr. Watson went to one of these cottages and found that the bath tub had been carefully packed with earth, and a lovely garden was a bloom with fuchsias and geraniums.—an Fran clso Chronicle. A WINYAH BAY RELIC. The Old Prince George Church in South Carolina. At the head of Winyah Bay, in South Carolina, stands quaint old Georgetown, wrapped about with its mantle of historic associations. Visitors to the town will be shown many Colonial landmarks, chief among which is the old Episcopal church, Prince George Winyah. It is a noble structure built of English bricks brought from the mother country, and, notwithstanding its great age, is "in a good state of preservation today. The church records, handed down from Colonial days, show that "this parish was taken off St. James Santee" by act of Assembly in the year 1721. The building was completed in 1736, its communion plate dating from the same year. the edifice stands within a peaceful old churchyard whose crumbling gravestones, quantitly carved and inscribed, possess a fascinating interest for the visitor. An ancient brick wall, overrun with English ivy, surrounds the sacred precincts, and live oaks, venerable and gray bearded, stand sentinel. The old style, high box pews, with seats on three sides, are still in evidence. Tradition says the British stabled their horses in the building during the Revolution, using the pews for stalls, and marks of horses' hoofs may be seen in the wood at the present day. Not many miles distant from Georgetown is the historic St. James Sancte district, from which this parish had its beginning. The old church building of Colonial days is no longer in existence, but upon the site held in sacred reverence a handsome modern structure has been erected, and among the treasured possessions of the church are a venerable Bible and prayer-book the gift of Mrs. Rebecca Motte, of Revolutionary fame. The Bible is a ponderous tome that can scarcely be lifted in one's arms. A British officer carried it off to England as a trophy during the war, together with prayerbook and altar service. Some years later they were exposed for sale on a London book-stall, and were purchased by an English officer who had known Mrs. Motte in America, who restored them to the church from which they had been taken, and in which they are still used in the services.—Four Track News. HER LITTLE PLAY. "You know that original Floridora coxet?" inquired the "chorus girl. "Yes," answered the manager wearl "There wasn't a chance on earth for me to get into it."

MLP THE LAXATIVE OF KNOWN QUALITY There are two classes of remedies; those of known quality and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assistance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting temporarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to contribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company-- California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package.

(At43-'06) The directors of the Colored State Fair Association are glad to be able to inform the people of Georgia that the prospects for a grand success at our approaching state fair were never brighter than they are now. The confidence that, wrongly or rightly, was somewhat shaken in some of our people concerning the safety of the undertaking at this time, is being fully restored, both here and all over the state, and with the best of reasons. There probably was never a time when the relations between the two races were more cordial and re-assuring in Macon than they are now. The white people here are manifesting in every way, both materially and otherwise, their good will towards the undertaking, and their desire to see this fair turn out a grand success. Warm letters of commendation and encouragement come into the office from prominent white men not only of Macon, but of other parts of the state. The most positive assurances of safety and protection during the fair are enthusiastically given us by both officials and white civilians of Macon. These statements may be verified by perusal of the white papers on this subject. A letter of assurance from Mayor Bridges Smith over his own signature has been received, which ought to reassure the most timid. Many fine exhibits are being entered from various parts of the state—exhibits that, for quantity, variety and quality, will make a showing of which the state will be proud. We have already booked many splendid attractions. We have received the program of the fireworks, which will be of the first class and will include bursts of welcome, medallions of President Rocsevelt, Vice President Fairbanks, Mayor Bridges Smith, Booker Washington, President Wright of the Fair Association and others. The balloon ascension and parachute leaps will be by noted aeronauts and of a most thrilling nature. Moving pictures, with the latest machinery in the hands of experienced operators, and with a fine and varied program, will add greatly to the entertainment of the occasion. The Negro will, show his powers of amusing in many special features, such as will West performances, old plantation scenes, etc. In fact, a grand good time is assured all visitors to the fair, and the enterprise promises well to be of such a nature as to dwell pleasantly in the minds of Georgia for many a day. Very Truly yours. R. R. WRIGHT, President The following letter is from Mayor Smith Mayor's Office, the City of Macon, Ga. October 20, 1906. To Whom it May Concern: At a recent meeting of the mayor and council, permission was given the Georgia State Colored Agricultural and Industrial Association to hold the first state fair at Central City Park, allowing the Association the full use of the grounds and buildings in the same manuer in which it was used by the Macon Fair Association. During the recent strike disturbances in this city, it was, at one time, thought best to revoke that permission. Since that time, however, the excitement and disturbances have been quieted, and the city is now as safe for visitors as ever in its history. The fair to be given by the colored society has the endorsement of all good citizens of Macon, and their cooperation will be given toward making it a success. Colored people throughout the state who may have any apprehension whatever are told that their visit to the city will be absolutely safe and not the slightest trouble should be anticipated. Macon has the reputation of being a peaceful city, and it may be said that nowhere in Georgia is there more cordial or more peaceful relations existing between the races. It is hoped that all good colored people throughout the state will come to Macon on the occasion of the first Negro state fair, and give it all aid and encouragement. You're very truly, BRIDGES SMITH, Mayor. Among the Masons. The Supreme Council of Thirty-third degree Masons of the Southern District of the United States, held their conclave at Macon, commencing Sunday night, October 14th, and lasting three days. Over 300 delegates were present. It is reported that they held one of the most successful meetings ever held. The affair wound up with a banquet Tuesday night, which was extremely elaborate and highly attended. Dispatch. Let all who knock for admission come of their own free will and accord. There must be no soliciting in Masonry. The black ball should be used for defense, not for offense, for the good of Masonry, not to wreak private vengeance. A Mason's Duty. It is a Mason's duty at all times and under all circumstances to promote peace and brotherhood. And yet, what do we sometimes see? Masons abusing and vilifying one another, saying harsh and frequently unjust things about each other. Too often, alas, a Mason finds his worst enemy to be a brother Mason. Is there no remedy for this great and crying evil? Must Masons and Masonry continue to suffer at the hands of unworthy Masons? Occasionally, indeed, a so-called Mason will endeavor to wreak his vengeance upon an entire lodge, because of a spite he may have against an officer or member of that lodge. Brethren, let us purge our lodges of such unworthy material. They are of no benefit to Masonry. They are not Masons at heart. They follow the lusts of the flesh. They are actuated by malice, envy and revenge and are not influenced by the sweet and gentle spirit of Freemasonry. Love is the keystone that cements the Masonic arch, and those who are not willing to be governed by the spirit of brotherly love, should leave our institution or be expelled from it.—Herald. The country brother, when meeting good and worthy Masons in destitute circumstances will generally put him up for the night, give him a good breakfast; share with him his cash and send him on his way rejoicing. That is pure Masonry.—Pacific Mason. Eastern Star Usefulness. Did it ever occur to you that outside of the advantages that accrue to you, at home, in being a member of the Order of Eastern Star, that it may demonstrate its usefulness in a far greater manner in the future. These ideas were suggested by an incident related by a brother. His daughter, who was traveling, found it necessary to change her route, and was greatly worried about hotel accommodations, connections and baggage transportation. She accosted the brakeman and told him her trouble, and he noticing her Eastern Star pin, informed her that he was a Mason, as were most of the trainmen, and calling the conductor the desired information was soon obtained, and at the next stop she went with them to the baggage car, where she identified her trunks, surrendered her checks, and everything was in readiness to make the necessary transfer. When the junction was reached she was placed in charge of the station agent, who personally saw to her comfort, escorted her to her train and made arrangements for her convenience during the rest of her journey. The incident is only one of the many civilities extended to those who wear the mystic five-pointed star.—Eastern Star Signet. Last week a convention was formed for the organization of a new Masonic lodge in Savannah. A large number of some of the leading young men in the city are members of the convention.

Shivery, treasurer, and Mr. P. Edward Perry, secretary Another and larger attended meeting was had last night. The gentlemen seemed interested in the movement and are determined to have the work done next month. A LITANY OF ATLANTA. Remarkable and Powerful Protest Against Atlanta Horrors. (The Independent, New York, October 11, 1906.) O Silent God, thou whose voice afar in mist and mystery hath left our ears an-hungered in these fearful days— Hear us, good Lord! Listen to us, Thy children; our faces dark with doubt, are made a mockery in Thy sanctuary. With uplifted hands we front Thy heaven, O God, crying: We beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord! We are not better than our fellows, Lord, we are but weak and human men. When our devils do deviltry, curse Thou the doer and the deed; curse them as we curse them; do to them all and more than ever they have done to innocence and weakness, to womanhood and home. Have mercy upon us, miserable sinners. And yet whose is the deeper guilt? Who made these devils? Who nursed them in crime and fed them on injustice? Who ravished and debauched their mothers and their grandmothers? Who bought and sold their crime and waxed fat and rich on public iniquity? Thou knowest, good God! Is this Thy justice, O Father gulit be easier than innocent the innocent crucified for of the untouched guilty Wherefore do we pray? Is not the God of the fathers dead? Have not seers seen in heaven's halls Thine hearsed and clifeless form stark amidst the black and rolling smoke of sin, where all along bow bitter forms of endless dead? Awake. Thou that sleepest! Thou art not dead, but flown afar, up hills of endless light, through blazing corridors of suns, where worlds do swing of good and gentle men, of women strong and free—far from the cozenage, black hypocrisy and chaste prostitution of this shameful speck of dust! Turn again, O Lord, leave us not to perish in our sin! From lust of power and lust of blood Great God deliver us! From lust of power and lust of gold Great God deliver us! From the leagued lying of despot and of brute A city lay in travail. God, our Lord, and from her loins sprang twin Murder and Black Hate. Red was the midnight; clang, crack and cry of death and fury filled the alr and trembled underneath the stars when church spires pointed silently to Thee. Ahd all this was to sate the greed of greedy men who hide behind the veil of vengeance. Bend us Thine ear, O Lord! In the pale, still morning we look upon the deed. We stopped our ears and held our leaping hands, but they—did they not wag their heads and leer and cry with bloody jaws: cease from crime! The word was mockery, for thus they train a hundred crimes, while we do cure one. Turd again our captivity, and Lord. Behold this malmed and broken thing; dear God it was an humble black who toiled and sweat to save a bit from the pittance paid him. They told him: Work and rise. He worked. Did this man sin? Nay, but some one told him some one said another did—one whom he had never seen or known. Yet for that man's crime this man lieth malmed and murdered, his wife naked to shame, his children to poverty and evil. Hear us, O Heavenly Father! Doth not this justice of hell stink in Thy nostrills, O God? How long shall the mounting flood of innocent blood roar in Thine ears and pound in our hearts for vengeance? Pile the pale frenzy of blood-crazed brutes who do such deeds high on Thine altar, Jehovah, Jireh, and burn it in hell forever and forever! Forgive us, good Lord; we know not what' we say! Bewildered we are and passion-tost, mad with the madness of a mobbed and mocked and murdered people; straining at the armposts of Thy Throne, we raise our shackled hands and charge thee, God, by the bones of our stolen fathers, by the tears of our dead mothers, by the very blood of Thy crucified Christ: What meaneth this Tell us the Plan; give us the Sign! Keep not thou silence, O God! Sit no longer blind, Lord God, deaf to our prayer and dumb to our dumb suffering. Surely Thou art not white, O Lord, a pale, bloodless, heartless thing? All Christ of all the Ages. Forgive the thought! Forgive these wild, blasphemous words. Thou art still the God of our black fathers, and in Thy soul's soul sit some soft darkenings of the evening, some shadowings of the velvet night. But whisper—speak—call, great God, for Thy silence is white terror to our hearts! The way, O God, show us the way and point us the path. Whither? North is greed and South is blood; within the coward and without the liar. Whither? To death? Whither? To life? But not this life, dear God, not this. Let the cup pass from us, tempt us not beyond our strength, for there is that clamoring and clawing within, to whose voice we would not listen, yet shudder lest we must, and it is red.. Ah, God! It is a red and awful shape! Selah! In wonder East trembles a star. Lord, we have done these pleading, wavering words. We bow our heads and hearken soft to the sobbing of women and little children. We beseech Thee to hear us, good Lord! Our volces sink in silence and in night. Hear us, good Lord! In night, O God, of a godless land! Amen! Done at Atlanta, in the Day of Death, 1906! W. E.

In the United States district court at Louisville, Ky., Tuesday, Judge Walter M. Evans, in the case of the United States vs. J. M. Scott, a train dispatcher for the Louisville and Nashville railroad, on trial for alleged violation of the Erdman act, which seeks to prevent interstate carriers from keeping their employees out of labor unions, held that section 10 of the act is void because it is not a regulation of commerce within the meaning of the commerce clause of the constitution and therefore beyond the power of congress to enact. The court sustained the demurrer to the indictment against Scott and discharged him from custody. Scott had discharged in operator in the employ of the Louisville and Nashville railroad and the Railroad Telegraphers' Union took the matter to the courts. COIN SCATTERED OVER PRAIRIE. Bandits Drop Body While Being Hots Overspaced by a Poose. A special from Minot, N. D., says that after a chase lasting thirty-six hours the meriff's posse succeeded early Tuesday afternoon in capturing five bandits who robbed the Sawyer, N. D., bank early Monday morning. The men were discovered on a farm and attempted to escape. A fight followed, in which one robber was severely wounded. Another robber ran into a slough with $300 in gold and bills and dropped the money into the water. Money was also scattered on the prairie by the bandits. Chief of Police Handy secured $30,000, composed of gold and bills, all the silver having been thrown away. ATLANTIC COAST LINE RAILROAD CO.
