commission, Ipcated in New York, of
which David Robinson is the head,
which is doing such a splendid work
of securing desirable immigrants for
the south, has appealed to President
Roosevelt to direct the department of
Justice to make investigations in New
York, which Mr, Robinson declares
will completely refute the charges
against the R. D, Cole company of
Newnan, on which indictments for
peorage were found by the federal
grand jury for the northern district
of Georgia as the result of the ef-
forts of the Assistant Attorney Gen-
eral Charles W. Russell, who hes
een in Georgia for the past two
wooks as the special representative
of the department in connection with
this matter. :
According to information furnished
the Atlanta Constitutlon Sunday night
by Mr, Robinson, the commission
will be able to show that those per
sons making the charges of peonage
absotstely misrepresonted themselves
tn order to get free transportation to
the south.
Georgia being one of the states for
which the commission !s working, Mr.
Hobinson ts the direct representative
of the stato-and Is engaged in secur.
ing for Georgla industries just the
‘kind of immigrants that are badly
needed to keep up tho great prog:
ress which fs now belng made, The
whole purpose of the commission ts
to induce desirable immtigrants to
come to the south, and the present
furor over alleged cases of peonage
is naturally greatly tnterfering with
its work—and at the same time very
ploasently playing {nto the bands of
those interests which are opposed to
fmmigration to the south, The rall
roads which get the haul when labor
ers and ‘omescekers are carried to
“he west are the chief beneficlaries
every time such charges are made
against the south, and many stories
detrimental to this section which have
teen told abroad have beén ascribed
to their agents,
Mr, Robinson declares that the
presemt situation demands absolute
fairness in the interest of southern
industries. .
Mr. Robinson's telegram to the Con:
atitutton was as follows:
“New York, November 4, 1906—The

ston, located In New York, appealed

SHIPLOAD OF IMMIGRANTS
From Bremen Arrives at Charleston
on Steamer Wittekind—Is First
of a Newly Inaugurated Move.
‘The North German Lloyd Steamship
‘Wittekind arrived at Charleston, 8. C,

420 immigrants and a large cargo 4f

4 October 19, Commissioner of Immt-
gration for South Carolina H J, Wat-
son was on board. The immigrants
Were about half Belgians and the ze-
mainder repretented Germany, Gwit-
zerland, Austria and other sections
bf Europe. United States Commleston-
er Sargeant and Commisstoner of La-
bor Nelll, with the ald of a half dozen
interpreters and other officials, 10-
cluding the quarantine officer, went
@hrough the lst and nearly all of
the Immigrants passed successfully. A
few were detained for further investl-
gation, The now immigrants are
largely made up of mill operatives and
have already gone to the upper part
of the state to find posttions in the
numerous cotton mills, The second
load of immigrants will leave Bremen
for Charleston, December 28.
‘The scarcity of labor in the Caro-
Unas and throughout the. southeast re-
sulted in the gathering together of
a number of the large employers and
mill men of the Palmetto State 2
short time ago. It was at this gath
ering that ways and means were dis
cussed for the bringing of a better
clase of foreign laborers direct to some
southern port. ;
It was finally doclded that the best
and most practical way was to bring
these from the old world direct to 2
southern port, and Charleston was
the clty declded upon. Commissioner
of Immigration E, J, Watson of South
Carolina was placed in charge of the
work and the co-operation of M. V
‘Richards, chfef of the land and indus
trial department of Washington, was
asked. Mr, Richards tmmedlately re
sponded, and together with Mr. Wat
son, these gentlemen went to worl
along practical lnes,
Most of the fmmigrants arriving or
the Wittekind will be employed in
the cotton mills of the Carolinas,
The greatest care has been taker
in the selection of these immigrants
to secure the very best of workers
who will prove industrious and ala
good eltizens.
If the experiment proves practical
and it ts belloyed that tt will by those

crats making gains in some instances,
and the republicdns in others. The
‘republicans retain contro! of congress

Perhaps the widest general interest
1n the elections centered In the re-
markable fight for governor which has
Leen waged in New York state be-
tween Charles E. Hughes, the republl-
can candidate, who, throughout the
campaign, has had the support of
Prosident Roosevelt, and William Ran-

pendence league nominee, The latest
retutns available show that Hughes.

Massachusetts has reclected Curtls
Guild, republican, as governor, over
Mstrict Attorsey John B. Moran of
Roston, who was the candidate of the

Independence league ticket polled 40,

tality for the state officers.
Pennsylvanta has elected Stuart, re
publican governor over a fuslon oppo-
aftion by the veual republican plural-
ity.
Michigan, Iowa, New Hampshire,

missioner Garfield,
Secretary of the Interlor Hitchcock

house Wednesday:
The secretary of the tnterlor, Mr.
Hitchcock, had informed the presl.
dent that he would be unable to stay

for some time felt that the very ox
hausting work he has been engaged
jn for over elght years in the in-
terlor department was wearing on
lim so as to make St impossible for
him much longer to remain, At the
president’s earnest request he con-
sented to accept the reappoiniment
on March 4, 1905, at the time of the
president's inauguration. But he then
stated that he could not say how
long he could stay, and he fools now
he must {nalst on being relieved after
March 4, The presidont urged him
to accept the ambassddorehip to
France, but Mr, Hitchcock feels that
he Is entitled to absolute rest and
must refuse the offer.

NEGRO BATTALION
Is Disgraced and Dismissed
by President Roosevelt.
HELD BACK INFORMATION
President Recently Demanded That
They Disclese Identity of Mur
derere—Aftermath “of Brown
ville, Texas, Affalry
‘Vnprecedented in the history of the
army of the United States fs the ac-
ton of the preeident, just announced,
in dismissing in disgrace from the
army an entire battallon of negro
troops because of thelr fallure to dls-
close the identity of some of their
number who had been guilty of vio-
lence and murder. As an evidenco,
however, of his intention to be falr
to the negro troops, the president
has accompanted' this action by sa
order which may amount to the court-
martial of a white army officer of high
grade, who was charged with having
cast slurs upon the negro troops.
The story of both actlons is told im
the following officlat correspondence,
made public at Washington Tuesday
by the military secretary:
“The report of an investigation
made by Brigadier General BE, A. Gar-
‘Ington, Inepector general, of the army;
“Felatlve to the mlotous disturbance
| that occurred at Brownsville, Texas,
on the night of August 18, 1908, and
that resulted in the death of ono, and
/the wounding of another citizen of
that city, has been considered and
acted upon by the “president. Follow
ing are hts Instructions with regard
to the matter:
“-White House, November 6, 1906—
‘The Secretary of War: 1 bave read
through General Garlington’s report,
duted October 22, submitted to me by
you. I direct that the recommendation
of General Garlington be complied
with, at the seme time the concluding
portion of his report be published with
our sanction as giving the reason for
the action
“THEODORE ROOSEVELT.””
Following is the concluding portion
of General Garlizgton's report, which
ombraces the recommendations that,
by direction of the president, will be
carrled Into effect Immediately by the
war department: ,
“{ recommend that orders be Issued
as soon as practicable discharging
without honor every man in compa-
nfes B, C and D, of the twenty-fifth
infantry, serving at Fort Brown, Tex
as, on the night of August 13, 1906
and forever debarring them from re:
enlisting in the army or from employ.
ment in ary civil capacity, under the
government. In making this recom:
mendation I recognize the fact that
a number of isen who have no direct
knowledge as to the identity of the
men of the twenty-fifth infantry who
actully fired tbe shéts on the night
of the 13th of August, 1906, will en:
dure this extreme penalty.
“Tt has been established by care
ful Inyestigation, beyond reasonable
doubt, that the firing into the houses
of the cftizens of Brownsville, while
the inhabitants thereof were pursulng
thelr peaceful vocations, or sleeping
and by which one citizen was killed
and the chlef of police so seriously
wounded that he lost an arm, was
done by onllsted men of the twenty
fitth infantry, belonging to the battal
ion stationed at Fort Brown,
“after due opportunity and notics
the enlisted men of the twenty-fifth
§ntantry have felled to tell what it 4
reasonable to belleve they ktow con
cerning the shooting, If they had done
50; it they had been willing to relate
ail the circumstances, instances pre
liminary to the trouble, it {s extreme
ty probable that a clew sufficiently
definite to lead to results would havc
been disclosed. They appear to stang
together In a determination to resis
the detection of the gullty, therefor
they should’stend together when th
| penalty falls.”

RAWLINGS LOSES OUT
Before supreme Court of the United
States—Only Hope Is «Now With
Georgia Prison Commission. _
| The supreme court of the Uulted
States has declined to interfere with
the {udgment cf the Georgia state
ccurts in the case of J, G, Rawlings
of Lowndes county, sentenced to death
for the niurder of the Carter children
and the question of the infliction of
the death penalty now reats wholly
‘with Lowndes county superior court.
‘There 1s no law, or precedent for
that matter, to prevent the execution
of Rawlings: st once by ‘order of the
Lowndes superior court, should the
court see fit te pass that order, This
has already been deetded by the state
supreme court
It Is now ylth the Lowndes county
superlor court to say on what day old
man Rawlings shall be hanged. There
is no necessity even to awalt the ar-
rival of the mandate of the United
Gtetes supreme court, Attorney Gen-
gral Hart says, The Washington trib-
‘unal has, however, ordered that man-
date immediately transmitted.
Old man Rawlings’ fate having been
finally determined by this decision of
the United States supreme court, noth-
ing further stands in the way of the
prison coramissfon considering the ap-
plications of his sons, Milton and Jes-
se, also sentenced to be hanged for
the same crime, for executive clem-
ency, It {s asked for the boys that
thelr sentences be commuted to life
imprisonment, and the prison commis-
slon will take up thelr cases for con-
sideration and actlcn at its next meet-
ing.
Following tg the dispatch from
‘Washington announcing the court's de-
cision In the Rawlings case:
“Tae supreme court of the United
States today affirmed the declston of
the Georgia supreme court In the caso
of John G. Rawlings, under convic-
dion in Lowndes county, of that state,
on the charge of murder, the effect of
the decistop, being to compel the exe-
cutlon of Rawlings, utless his 1aW-
yers succeed in finding other means
of securing, a stay of proceedings.
Rawlings who is a white man, and a
preacher, was charged with employ-
{ng negroes to murder a family of
neighbors. Two children were decoy-
ed out of the house and shot, but
the other menbers of the family sav-
ed their lives by remaining withia
the shelter of their home.”

The Nervous Child.
By Helen Watts McVey.
NE can but pity the child born with a nervous temperament, much as such a temperament is to be desired, if the parents do not know how to bring out the best that is in him. The future of no child is more absolutely in the keeping of its parents than is that of a "nervous" child, and his well-being and usefulness to the world is made or marred by the training he receives. Such a child is usually hard to understand by the average parent, and
NE can but pity the child born with a nervous temperament, much as such a temperament is to be desired, if the parents do not know how to bring out the best that is in him. The future of no child is more absolutely in the keeping of its parents than is that of a "nervous" child, and his well-being and usefulness to the world is made or marred by the training he receives. Such a child is usually hard to understand by the average parent, and by Injudicious treatment he may grow up a physical and moral wreck, even though the mentality may not be dwarfed or warped. Such a warped disposition will cause him to be a very Ishmael among his kind, at odds with everything he meets, while the proper treatment will give to the world a most lovable man or woman, affectionate, gentle, sensitive, sympathetic and intelligent.
The nervous child is often of a very strong character, wilful and seemingly headstrong, because his brain power gives him a feeling of self-reliance, and he is generally difficult to manage, especially if the parents be impatient and unreasonable in their demands. Scolding only adds to the nervous tension, fault-finding irritates and discourages, and severer punishment, such as whippings and shutting in a dark room, are cruel in the extreme. Corporal punishment should never be resorted to in the case of such a child, as he is usually amenable to reason and tractable to kindness. Being above the average as to intelligence, he should at all times be treated as an intelligent being. A nervous child must be guided; he can seldom be driven. Loud, harsh commands are as bad as blows, and unreasoning opposition only serves to make him more obstinate in his ways. Such a child is usually of strong likes and dislikes, and an act of injustice is not often forgotten or easily forgiven, and harshness or forceful demands only serve to drive him from the companionship of those who so use him. Let the parent of such a child learn first to govern himself or herself before undertaking to enforce obedience from the little soul who is often wiser than is the parent to whom it is trusted.—The Commoner.

There were two Mehitabel Perkins, a pretty young one, and an old one almost as sweet. The young one was always called Mabel, and nobody in the neighborhood ever thought of the call of the wife of Josiah Perkins anything but Aunt Hitty. Mabel lived on the farm next Uncle Josiah, and not many days passed that her small feet did not trip through the lane to see if Aunt Hitty didn't have a bit of sewing to do, a ribbon to fix, or some little trifle, such as nice girls are fond of doing for their elderly aunts, especially in these modern days when the young folks are really the chaperons, and tell their elders just what to do.
It happened that soft September morning that Mabel found her aunt standing in the door of the sweet, clean springhouse with a very sober face, and the butter paddle held idly in her plump hand, the fresh golden butter waiting in the wooden bowl on the cedar table close by. That wasn't Aunt Hitty's way of working, so Mabel quickly asked:
"Aunty, what's the matter? Something, I know, you look so sad."
"Only a little disappointment, child, that's all," and the sweet old face lit now with a smile, "Uncle Josiah says I can't send my jellies to the Fair, and I did want to, so bad."
Mabel opened her brown eyes wide in surprise and cried out:
"Oh, Aunt Hitty! All those lovely jellies! That beautiful crab apple, and the green grape, and the red currant, and the blue plum, and all the rest! Oh, my! what is Uncle thinking about! You made them on purpose, and I know you would take a lot of blue ribbons! Why won't he let you send them?"
"He says he's got to go see after a calf he wants to buy, and hasn't got time to run up to enter them. Says there ain't any money in such fool-huss anyhow."
"There isn't? Well, I take notice he's mighty ready to eat his share of the jellies on the table. It's too bad! I'm real mad at Uncle! I mean to tell him so, too."
"No, don't, dear, it would only get you a scolding. Josiah means well, but he don't think a woman's work amount: to much. I'll just have to let the premiums go—maybe I wouldn't take any, if I sent the jelly. Did you come over to help me with my dressing sacque, child?" "Yes, I did, Aunty. If it's ready I can put the sleeves in for you." "All right, I'll be glad of your help. Mabel, who's that stopping at the gate? Somebody in a buggy." "Mabel glanced, and a half blush me over her soft cheek. "It's only Ben Allen, Aunty, I expect he wants to see me for something. I'll just run down to the gate a minute." "Where are you bound for this morning?" she asked as she turned back to the house.
"Weil, I had some notion of going into town to-day," answered he, "I want to look after a new set of hairs, and I'm not specially busy this time."
"Ch, Hen, I wonder if you would like to something for—for me and Aunt Hitty?" she said.
"Up in town? Yes, if I go, certainly I would. What is it girl?" Mabel told him about Aunt Hitty's diaportment, and added:
"I feel so sorry for her, and I just ordered if you would be willing to take the box out to the Fair Groves and enter the jellies in her name."
"Wha? indeed I will, with the greatest pleasure. Aunt Hitty is the one best woman in the world, and if I can do anything to help her, you just count on me, Mabel. I'll go up to the city, sure thing, and if she don't get several blue ribbons it won't be our fault! Has she got the things ready?"
"I think so—she wanted Uncle to take them and he wouldn't, for fear he might miss a calf sale he's after."
"Old Tightwad! Beg pardon, Mabel, I know he's your uncle, but I do get so mad at him because he does so little for Aunt Hitty. If she belonged to me, you bet I'd see that she had more comfort than she gets."
He gave Mabel : look which made her cheeks pink again, but to cover her confusion she said:
"I'll run see if she's got them ready," and flew up the path like a young deer.
Mabel stayed all day with Aunt Hitty. Ben stopped as he drove home in the afternoon, and told them that the jellies were entered all right, and so far as he saw, there wouldn't be any there to beat them.
"Are the folks going in to the Fair?" he asked, and Mabel answered:
"Yes, Uncle always goes on Thursday, and takes Aunt Hitty."
"All right then. I thought if he wasn't going, we would just take her with us—I knew you wouldn't mind!"
"Of course I would not! It's good in you to think of it, Ben—some young fellows wouldn't care to be bothered with an elderly lady. But they will go. I hope she will get ever so many premiums, just to show Uncle siah he don't know everything." "a d: I good-bye, child. Early Thursday morning I'll be over for you." Ben drove home, and Mabel stood at the gate, looking after him for a moment. "He is good!" she said, softly, "I
don't believe I could ever find any- bly any better." And then she went t- house with a thoughtful face, and a light in her brown eyes that woul- l have done Mr. Ben goo to see.
It was early in the afternoon when they drove into the beautiful Fair Grounds.
They strolled through the neat, cleanly kept horse bar s, and visited the fat cattle and sheep before they went to the snow white poultry house where they wert to meet Aunt Hilty and Uncle Josiah, and have dinner from the generous basket Aunt Hilty brought along.
They waited through the wide alesls to see the fine coops of prize poultry, and came out at the end where unt Hitty was already waiting for them with a smile on her cozy face.
"Been over to see what I've got?" was her greeting.
"Not yet," said Mabel, "we have been so busy looking at everything tun. we have not been in that building. Did you have good luck Minty?"
"Oh, didn't I?" she replied, her kind eyes beaming with pleasure.
"Why, Mabel. I have taken twelve blue ribbons! Think of that! And I have you and Ben here to thank for it, too. You don't know how proud and glad I am."
"Well, we are just as pleased as you are, Aunt Hitty," said Ben; "I'm mighty glad I happened to come by and stop Tuesday. Twelve premiums! That is good! I reckon Uncle Josiah won't object to that, will he?" "No, he'll be glad because she will get good money out of them," said Man' in a little aside, "but you and I are glad for more than that, Ben, aren't we?" "We surely are! It's worth a trip to town any day to see Aunt Hitty's innocent pride in her nice work. We will go over after dinner and see the display."
By that time Aunt Hitty had the basket unpacked, and they sat down under the shade of a great tree to enjoy its tempting contents. In a short time the snowy rolls, tender fried chicken, crisp pickles, golden butter, rich cake and other delicacies had almost disappeared, and Aunt Hitty gave what was loft in the basket to a couple of hungry looking little newsboys who had been hovering around, prhps in hope of a generous windfall. While the delightedurchins carried off their feast, the basket was returned to the carriage, and Aunt Hitty went over with the young folks to see the display in the Home Products building.
Oh, what rows and rows of crimson, ruby, amber and golden jellies, what jars of toothsome preserves, snow-white loaves of bread, cakes fit for the feast of a king, dainty pickles and other good things were ranged on the neat shelves and tables! And no one display in whole was finer than Aunt Hitty's, or could boat of a greater number of ribbons.
"My premiums will come to over twenty dollars, Mabel, just think of that!" whispered the good lady, in great delight.
"I'm ever so glad for you!" answered the dear girl. "I'll tell you what, Aun Hitty, you must take ever dollar of it and buy you a nice new cloak this winter; you know you need one ever so much."
"That's what I thought I'd do, but I don't know what Josiah would say if I spent it all for a cloak."
"Oh, we'll want you to buy a calf, or a sheep, or a pig, of course, but you won't do it. You earned every bit of it, and no thanks to him that you won it. Just you turn him over to me, and I'll settle him. If I can't can."
"Ben's the best boy in the world!" said Aunt Hity, carnely. "I want you to be good to him, Mabel."
Mabel laughed and gave no answer just then. But when they had watched the races until they were almost over, and the crowd began to wend its way homeward, Mabel had made up her mind that she would, as Aunt Hity had said, "be good to Ben."
She did not say anything until they were well toward home, and in sight of the neat cottage which Ben was building for himself on the part of father's farm which he had bought with his own savings. Then she looked up and said archly, "Almost ready to live in, isn't it, Ben?" "Yes," he answered gravely, "but I can't live in it alone, Mabel." "Can't you? Better ask some nice girl to live there with you, then." "I have. I asked the n'estle girl in the world, two o- three times, but she has not said she would." Mabel laughed, and said softly: "Perhaps if you ask her once more she will." He laid one strong hand over the small ones in her lap, and said—earnestly:
"Then I'll try it. Will she go, Mabel?"
"I think she will, Ben."
"My dear little girl!" Ben's arm wore suddenly round her, and it was a good thing his horse was steady, and did not scare at the big auto which just then went thundering by, for Ben wasn't minding the horrs call. "You're not afraid to trust me, then?" he asked, presently.
"No, Ben, I'm not. I am sure that a young fellow who would be so good and kind to an old lady, will always be good to a young one, and so I've made up mind at last, dear. You can have me, if you want me."
It did not take Ben long to convince her that he did want her. It may be that two happier young folks got home from the fair that Thursday evening, but Ben and Mabel didn't think so.-Indiana Farmer.
THE PULPIT.
4 BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON BY REV. I. W. HENDERSON.
Subject: The Holy Spirit.
Brooklyn, N. Y.—Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on the theme, "The Holy Spirit," the Rev. I. W. Henderson, pastor, took as his text Jno. 14:16-17. He said in the course of his sermon: As we read this and the two succeeding chapters of this good news of the Beloved Disciple, we appreciate, more and more, the vital, forceful influence of the Holy Spirit upon the lives of those who love and serve God. It was at the close of the Last Supper that Christ uttered these words. A few hours and the cross claimed Him. Philip had asked, "Lord, shew us the Father." Our text is: a portion of Christ's answer.
We are told by the commentators that the Holy Spirit, the Comforter is also an advocate, a helper. Literally translated the Greek means: "One who is called to another's side to aid him." To our side, an ever present aid through all eternity, the Holy Spirit has been called by Christ. Comforter, advocate, teacher, helper, guide and eternal friend, such is the Holy Spirit of the new dispensation as granted to us by our Heavenly Father.
The position of the Holy Spirit with reference to us is clearly shown by the prepositions used in the verses. "And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever, even the spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth Him, but ye know Him, for He abideth by you and shall be in you." With you, by you, in you. With you, "in the fellowship of His everlasting presence." By you, "in His personal presence." In you, "as an abiding personal energy." With you, by you, in you, in all the eternal omnipotence, love and wisdom of the very God Himself. The Holy Spirit is the presence of Almighty God and of His son Jesus Christ, with you, by you, in you. The pronouns, as the prepositions, are of prime importance. He is God, with, by and in man.
The Holy Spirit who is in our hearts to-day has been the dynamic in the lives of consecrated men and women since time was. In his journey up from bondage, it was the spirit of God that sustained Moses. He is the spirit of which Isaiah wrote: "And thine ears shall hear a word behind the saying. This is the way, walk ye in it." And again we read in Ezekiel: "And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in My statutes, and ye shall keep My judgments and do them." The spirit of Samuel and of Jeremiah is the Spirit of Saul of Tarsus. The same but, oh, how much more full. He brings to us not merely the wealth of association that crowds about the national life of the chosen people of God. To us, He comes as a consumation and memorial of the power, majesty and all-embracing love of God and of His Son our Saviour, Jesus, the Christ.
The Holy Spirit influences and directs every good and great movement that emanates from the hearts and souls of Christian men. God working in His Holy Spirit fills the heart of Henry-Ward Deecher with an overwhelming love for the Southern slave, and the inspired words of that virile Christian speed the breaking of a million shackles. The auction of the slave girl in the pulpit of Plymouth Church was God in His Spirit moving Henry Ward Deecher to decisive action. The Holy Spirit enters the heart of Florence Nightingale and soldiers on every ruddy field know the touch of a loving hand and the consolation of a sympathizing heart. The Comforter strikes hidden, inexhaustible springs in the souls of D. L. Moody, of General Crittenden, of Jerry McAulay, and myriads of outcast men and fallen women feel the power of the sheltering, upbearing arm of Almighty God. Tennyson hears the voice of God within and to us are given the immortal lines of "In Memoriam" and of "Crossing the Bar."
The history of the presence of the Christ in the lives, of nations lies in the work consummated by His Holy Spirit. All the great reforms, all the great movements that have bettered humanity have had their inception in the minds of Spirit-filled men. Who can say but that the hand and the Spirit of God have been with this land, as it was with Israel, in her phenomenal success. To be sure we have made our mistakes. We are a far cry from the Christ ideal. But did we, nationally, revere Him more, did we but let His Holy Spirit dwell deeper and more lastingly in our national heart. He would bless us far beyond our fondest expectations. God is the God of nations. Christ came to take away the sins of the world, of nations, as of individuals. The Holy Spirit can fill a nation's heart if its people will but do God's will.
The most vital necessity in the Life of the Christian and of the church is the Holy Spirit as He descends, constantly freshened and refreshing, from the throne of God. Having accepted Christ and His plan for our redemption, He is the first thing that we must gain. The apostles, men of God and with Christ as they were, could do naught in the work of the evangelization of the world and of lifting mankind to the level of the Christ life until they had received the gift of the Holy Ghost. For in the first chapter of the record of the Acts of the Apostles we read that "the Apostles being assembled together" after the resurrection, our Lord "commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith He, ye have heard of Me. For John truly baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized of the Holy Ghost not many days hence."
On the day of Pontecost they were all with one accord in one place, and the Holy Spirit descended upon them. You know the story. You know also the glorious assertion: "And the same day there were added unto them about 2000 sculis, and the Lord added
to them daily those that were being saved." The Holy Spirit was necessary to the Apostles. To us He is indispensable.
We complain of the lack of sincerity, of vitality, in the Church. This age is heralded as an age of doubt and of disbelief. The Church stands almost still. Her flags flap limply in a breeze of progress that holds straight out the ensigns of the minions of Satan. Sin confronts us on every hand and we make but insufficient headway against it. We regret that the Church does not enjoy a revival of the blessings of God upon her. We mourn that for one soul born into the Kingdom of God a more than equal number are seized in the snares of Satan. We pray for the upliftment of the world and we see the world slim from us.
Something is wrong. God was with the early Church. God is with the missionary in the farthest East. Thousands are being brought to Christ in India. Within our midst the multitudes of the unchurched and the unsaved appall us. Glance over the records of the apostolic church. Read the story of her growth. Is there not something wrong with us? What is the matter? Let us see. It is not that we have not the money to prosecute our work. We have more than at any time since our beginning. It is not that we have not numbers or able leaders or that Christ has proven false. The fault lies with us. The Church of Jesus Christ is not alive to the possibilities of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Church needs Christ in her heart.
The fault lies not with God. It lies with us. We, it is, who have been content with but a portion of His grace when He would have given to us all. We, it is, who have been content to drift and almost to drown, rather than to lay hold upon the eternal saving power of the Holy-Spirit. Let the Church awake from her lethargy; let her unite under the banner of the cross and follow true; let her live the life that she never wearies to preach; let her show to the world that the Christ life is practical life written large; let her appropriate to herself the Holy Spirit with His uplift toward Christ and the Father; and then will come a return of the miracles of the early Church, of which it is written, "and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls."
The essential requirement of the Christian life is not to be able to decide definitely the date of the Flood, or to be able to assert the exact authorship of the books of the Pentateuch, or to be able, more or less intelligently, to quibble over the pin points of ecclesiastical dogmatism. Be not deceived, to know the Bible word for word is not to be a Christian. Spirituality is the great sine qua non of the Christ life. That we may be able to purify ourselves and to lift others up to the Christ we need the Holy Spirit "good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over in our hearts." Ere we can experience the depth, the power and the world-wide inclusiveness of God's love, we must be reborn of God's ididwellning Spirit.
Open the doors of your heart and let the blessed sunshine of God's illuminating Spirit glow in upon you. With you, by you, in you, let the Comfortor abide. In sorrow He will sustain you. In care He will comfort you. He will strengthen you in life. He will rob death of its sting.
"Let not your heart be troubled, ye believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions. I will not leave you orphans. But I will pray the Father and He shall give you another Comfortor, that He may abide with you forever."
A Lesson From the Butterfly.
A naturalist one day was studying a cocoon, in which a butterfly was struggling to be free. He heard it beating against the sides of its little prison, and his heart went out in pity for the helpless creature.
Taking a tiny laceet he cut away the fragile walls and released the little captive. But to his amazement it was not the beautiful creature that he had expected to see. It lay struggling upon the table, unable to walk, unable to fly, a helpless, unlovely object. In place of the gorgeously colored wings that he had expected to see, were weak, shriveled members.
What was the matter with this creature that should have been so fair? The prison gates had been opened too soon, the obstacle had been removed before the struggle had developed sufficiently through struggling to be ready for its glorious flight into the sunshine skies and among the perfumed flowers. O God, when the walls seem to close about us, when we struggle and agonize to be free, when Thou dost not cut away the barriers, is it not because, in Thine infinite wisdom, Thou dost see that we are weak and dost want us to become strong? Then at last, when the struggle is finished, like the butterfly, we may come forth, not perhaps, in glorious robes of splendid colors as it is, but in the everlasting robes of righteousness.—Christian Observer.
A Man Worth Knowing.
I should like to know a man who just minded his duty and troubled himself about nothing; who did his own work and did not interfere with God's. How nobly he would work—working not for reward, but because it was the will of God! How happily he would receive his food and clothing, receiving them as the gifts of God! What peace would be his! What a sober gayety! How hearty and infectious his laughter. What a friend he would be! How sweet his sympathy! And his mind would be so clear he would understand everything. His eye being single, his whole body would be full of light. No fear of his ever doing a mean thing. He would lie in a ditch rather. It is the fear of want that makes men do mean things.—George Macdonald.
What We Should Never Forget.
Let us never forget that what we are is more important than what we do; and that all fruit borne when not abiding in Christ must be fruit of the flesh, and not of the Spirit.—J. Hudson Taylor.
Walking in faith is walking in the light of His face.
SCIENTIFIC & INDUSTRIAL "Fluid lenses" are the invention of a Hungarian chemist. Each lens consists of a fluid substance inclosed between two unusually hard glass surfaces, similar to watch crystals. The lenses are achromatic. The fluid does not evaporate. The new lenses are said to be as good as those all of glass and can be made much more quickly and for a fraction of the price of the all-glass lenses. It is expected that the new lenses will be especially useful for great telescopes.
Evidence is accumulating to show that the chemical elements in general are not as fixed and unalterable as was supposed a few years ago. In Germany, R. Fabinyi has prepared chlorine by adding sulphuric acid to a mixture of potassium perchromate and sodium chloride, and in another experiment by adding sodium chloride drop by drop to potassium perchromate mixed with sulphuric acid. The two specimens of chlorine differed materially, although prepared from the same materials, and neither showed any impurity on being tested.
The permanent exhibition of accident-preventing appliances at Charlottenburg is to have an annual grant of fifty thousand marks. It now contains 115 large machines with six hundred smaller appliances, and fifteen electric motors supplying driving power. Accident-preventing parts of machines are painted red, while dangerous parts are blue. Workmen's clothing, eye protectors, safety clutches, door locks and speed brakes are shown, with safety devices for lathes, presses, circular saws, etc. Safety scaffolding is placed on the grounds, while a gallery gives lessons in preventing industrial discases.
The German military authorities in southwestern Africa have, since 1904, developed a network of wireless telegraph-stations, for communication between military posts, and it is continually extending. Captive balloons, or kites, ascending to a height of 250 or 300 meters, carry transmitting and receiving apparatus, and are connected by vertical cables with the stations beneath. The stations are installed with carriages, running on four wheels, and furnished with petroleum motors of four horse-power, dynamos, and the other needed apparatus, as well as with camping material and accessories.

The propagation of smell through tubes where the air is free from currents was found to be very slow, showing that the fast propagation ordinarily observed in free space is due almost entirely to currents. For example, with ammonia diffusing through a tube a meter and a half long, over two hours elapsed before the smell could be detected at the other end of the tube. Using different lengths of tubing, it was found that the time required for the diffusion of the smell was roughly proportioned to the square of the length. Ammonia and hydrogen sulphide were used for the above experiments. With camphor while the rates horizontally and downward were about the same, the speed upward was about twice as great.—Science.
Artificial respiration in the apparently drowned is usually set up by regular flexion of the arms of the prostrate patient. Seeking more positive and better action, Dr. Eisenmenger, of Szaszvaros, Hungary, has developed the new plan of alternately raising and depressing the abdomen, and believes that this is a much more effective method of resuscitation. His simple apparatus is a kind of cuirass, which is strapped to the body and made tight by an edge pad, with a foot bellows for compressing and exhausting the air. The abdomen rises and falls with the varying pressure in the cuirass, and this gives not only vigorous inspiration and expiration but also a gentle heart massage, the combined action tending to give favorable results even in desperate cases.
His Specialities.
Captain Spencer, of the Church Army, tells this incident. He asked a convict what he did for a living when he left prison. "Well, in spring I does a bit o' pea-picking, and in summer I does a bit o' fruit picking." "Yes," said the captain, "and what do you do in the winter?" "Well, mister,I may as well be honest with yer. In the winter I does a bit o' pocket-picking!" Captain Spencer next asked, "And what happens then?" The convict replied, "Why, I comes 'ere and does a bit o' oakum-picking'"—London News.
Typesetting by Telegraph.
A young Italian named Cava, who invented a method of typesetting by telegraph, may receive honor in his own country but is not likely to make a fortune there. His device is simple in principle. An instrument of the kind used to record messages on the familiar ticker is connected with a monotype machine and makes perforations on the paper band. Although experiments with the Cava machine are said to have been successful, Italian newspapers cannot use it because the Government forbids private wires.—The Unionist.

MR. RIGDON, the Republican candidate, was defeated.
This is the time that the poll tax club should be enticing the colored people to pay their tax.
The first, was the only district in the state that had a candidate for Congressional honors on the Republican ticket.
In the election on Tuesday in Chicago, Attorney F. L. Barnett, was elected municipal judge and Mr. DePriester, as a county commissioner.
THE Georgia State Colored Fair opens in Macon on Monday to continue until the following Monday. It should be the gathering place of every Negro of note in the State.
To vote in the coming municipal election it is necessary for every voter to pay this years tax. Every colored man in the county should go up and pay this tax at once. The books are now open.
LAST week we made mention of the effective service rendered by Rev. Bright as rector of St. Stephen's church for fifteen years. He has been nominated by the Bishop Nelson for the position of Arch-Deacon. This is a prominent position in the church, carrying with it much honor and finance. But it is hoped that Rev. Bright will not accept. He is doing a great work here and accomplishing much for the uplift of the community. We join with his parishioners in asking him to remain with us.
THE President has issued crders dishonorably discharging the men of the battalion, of the Twenty-Fifth Infantry, stationed in Texas. This was done because the men refused to disclose the identity of the men who were in the shooting scrape at Brownsville. In this matter grave injustice has been done the innocent men of the battalion who would not prejure themselves to be retained in the service. One significant fact about the matter was the publishing of the orders the morning after the election
No one has differed from Editor Davis and many of his utterances in The Atlanta Independent, more than THE TRIBUNE. The editor of THE TRIBUNE has not alone differed on lines above, but politically and fraternally. Above all of these differences there looms up the form of a man, as the sun darts from behind a darkened cloud, and after all, it is the man that we admire. THE TRIBUNE along with his many friends in this city and elsewhere, join in extending their admiration and congratulating him in his recent elevtaion. At the gathering held in this city on Tuesday night, free expressions were given on the things above mentioned and these expressions have caused a clearer understanding that immediately resulted in admiration. Editor Davis is a strong man for the race in this state and is destined to do much good.
College Exhibit.
The Georgia State Industria College has sent an extensive exhibit to the First Colored State Fair which opens in Macon, November 12th. All of the departments of the school are represented and the exhibit is by far the most creditable of any that has been gotten up by the school.
The exhibit from the wheelwright and blacksmith departments, consists of two spring wagons, one buggy, one buggy body and seat, two sets of andirons and two cases of fillings, chippings and forge work.
The shoemaking and harness department have sent up six pairs of handmade shoes, two sets of harness and three cases of model and practice work.
An artistic miniature stairway will represent the carpentry department and a Prince Albert suit, Turzedo coat and vest, along with specimens of patchwork and Drawings will show forth the handwork in the tailoring department.
The credit for all the painting on the wagons, buggy and other articles in the exhibit belongs to the painting department of the College while a class from the masonry department will go to the fair to construct a piece of ornamental brickwork The exhibit from the sewing department is creditable and will attract much attention. The farm has sent sugar cane, cotton, rice, potatoes, and will also conduct prac-

tical work at the Fair, for the benefit of the people. The literary department of the school will be largely represented. The exhibit being designed to show that the head as well as the hand is trained and developed at the College. The scientific department has sent numerous instruments, chemicals, etc., and the department of pedagogy will endeavor to show the rural teachers how to conduct a thoroughly up-to-date primary or grammar school. All the other Academic departments are represented and the exhibit as a whole will certainly elicit much praise.
EDITOR B. J. DAVIS HONORED.
Much courtesles Extended Him by Friends and Congratulations showed on Account of His Elevation.
Editor B. J. Davis, of the Atlanta Independent, Grand Secretary of the District Grand Lodge of Odd-Fellows of Georgia, and Grand Treasurer of the B. M. C., arrived in the city last Sunday. He was met by some of his friends and was in their hands from then until he left on Wednesday night. Monday afternoon in company of Messrs Geo. S. Williams, L. E. Williams, and a TRIBUNE representative he was given a drive to several of the resorts. At night he visited the meeting of Armenia Lodge, after which a committee of that lodge and of Mt. Seir lodge had prepared a repast on the second floor. Tuesday a committee of Odd-Fellows gave him a drive through the city
The climax of his visit occurred on Tuesday night. On this occasion there was gathered at Morse's Hall a number of the more well known citizens to give honor to the prominent Georgian and congratulate him on his recent elevation to the position he now holds on the official board of the Odd-Fellows of this country.
A table extending the entire length of the hall, was laden with good things. The popular Mr. Geo. S. Williams, as master of ceremonies occupied the head. On his extreme right was seated the guest of honor, Editor Davis and on his left Mr. Chas. A. Clark, of Brunswick, while Mr. L. E. Williams held the honor at the other end. All present entered immediately with zest into the substantials and spirit of the occasion, after the blessings by Mr. W. R. Fields. The overflowing spirit of good cheer was not retained very long. There was no prepared program, the purpose being to have a general love feast and it was truly one Master of Ceremonies Williams proved a fluent and able one. He introduced the several speakers in a happy strain not forgetting their labors for uplift. Col. J. H. Deveaux, Collector of Customs, was the first speaker. In his characteristic manner he gave utterance to sentiments that were heartily applauded. He was followed in this strain by the several speakers. The sentiments of good cheer were increased when the eloquent Brunswickian, Chas. A. Clark, was introduced. Those who know Mr. Clark realize readily the happy manner in which he spoke and the many good things said. The greatest enthusiasm arose when the master of ceremonies, eloquently introduced the guest of honor, Editor B. J. Davis. He was received with prolonged applause. What
he said was characteristic of the man. Every sentiment uttered contained points for thought. He gave a clear exposition of his stand in affairs in this State and did so in such a convincing manner that he immediately received the amens of his hearers who showed approval by hearty applause whenever he made convincing points, which were numerous. While this was not a distinctly Odd-Fellow gathering, for there were many Masons and K. of P. present; yet the hearty Odd-Fellows, joined in by others predicted his election to the highest office in the gift of the Order, the Grand Mastership of America
Among the gentlemen present were Col. J. H. Deveaux, Mr. Chas. A. Clark, of Brunswick; Dr. J. H. Bugg, Dr J. H. King, Dr. E. D. Bulkley, Dr Geo. R. Shivery, Attorney F. B. Pettie, Messrs. L. E. Williams, H. M. Reid, L. M. Pollard, E. W. Howell, J. D. Savage, Julian Smith, R Barnes, D. J. Scott, Chas. A. McDowell, H. B. Wright, P. Edward Perry, Edward Petty, W. Smith, R. B. Brooks, W. S. Scott, Jos. G. Geary, Toby Lloyd, W. R. Fiolds W. J. Williams, W. S. Roundfield, C. W. Alexander, C. G. Jordan, T. Freeman, and a TRIBUNE representative.
This gathering was a significant one. All differences of opinion were obliterated and the cement of everlasting friendship was spread.
Much credit is due Mr. Geo. S Williams for the success of this gathering, and everybody went away at the we sma hours with the sentiments of the occasion indelibly impressed upon their mind.
Editor Davis left on Wednesday afternoon for home carrying with him the best wishes of his friends in the Forest City
Card of Thanks.
I take this method of thanking the members and friends of Beth-Eden Baptist Church for their hearty cooperation and many words of encouragement during my installation services last week. I doubly thank the various pastors of this city, who with their congregations came to our rescue with both greeting and cash. On Sunday night, the 11th, inst., I will deliver a special sermon outlining my purposes and policies while pastor in and citizen of the city of Ravannah, and shall be glad for as many of our friends as can consistently be from their duties elsewhere to worship with us at that time. The subject of the sermon will be, "My Pastoral Motto."
Yours in His name.

Fifteen Years of Service Rendered Without a Reprimand.
13
About fifteen years ago Mr. L. E. Williams, President of The Wage Earners Loan and Investment Company, was appointed clerk in the R M S. Since that time he has resided in Savannah and elicited the friendship of scores of citizens. During these years he has given faithful and efficient service The chief clerk or superintendent has never had occasion to reprimand or fine him for a dereliction of duty or for non efficiency. He is well liked by his fellow clerks and in disposition he is today what he was fifteen years ago when he went into the service.
He is one of the incorporators of The Wage Earners Loan and Investment Co., and at its organization, was elected vice-president. At the death of Mr. Albert Jackson, president of the company, he was elected president. The wisdom of this is proven in the phenominal success of the company under his administration. The business of this company has grown to such an enormous proportion, that the directors were compelled to request Mr. Williams to give his entire service to the company. Seeing the necessity of this and having confidence in the success of the company, he readily tendered his resignation to the government. This was received with regret and accepted to take effect the first instant. This was a great act of Mr. Williams', giving up an excellent paying life long position, but like the man he is, he saw the necessity for the move and the great good that he can accomplish by giving his entire time and attention to the upbuilding of The Wage Earners.
Mr Williams is among the ablest financiers of the race. Through his keen discernment, business sagacity, conservative actions and untiring efforts the business of The Wage Earners has grown to a great proportion. He is sunny in disposition and friendly with everybody.
The shareholders of The Wage Earners are fortunate in securing the services of its able President and THE TRIBUNE predicts for the company during his administration, assisted by the able Secretary and Treasurer, Mr. Walter S. Scott, that the company's business will increase in a substantial and wonderful manner.
Second Baptist Church.
The weekly services were fairly well attended. Owing to the pastor helping Rev. Gray in the St. John's revival, he was not in the weekly meetings. Sunday services were excellent; large crowds attended both services, Excellent collections at both hours, also a good collection was raised for the Macon Reformatory. Dr. May administered the communion for Dr. J. W. Carr, at the First A. B. Church Sunday afternoon. Rev. J. R. Anderson represented pastor May in the "Union Meeting" at St. John, last Sunday afternoon. The following officers were elected, Pres. G. W. Griffin, D. D., First Bryan Church; Vice Pres. L. L. Blair, Bethlehem Church; Secretary John H. May, Second B. Church; Treas. Wm. Gray, St. John Church.

The sick list is larger this week than last week. Mrs. Rena Fields is at the Georgia Infirmary to undergo an operation and requests the members to come and see her. Bro. Bailey has been quite sick with the pneumonia. Sister Eliza Clark, 1919 Ht. East, is quite ill. The pastor attended the funeral of Bro. Henry Miller, on East Broad Ht., Saturday afternoon and the funeral of Sister Maria Sneed at White Bluff on Tuesday afternoon. Several clubs held successful meetings during the week. The church will have its usual Thanksgiving sermon and services on Thanksgiving Day. All churches, pastors, lodges and the general public age cordially invited to worship with us that day. Several members joined this week. The revival will open to-morrow, (Sunday) morning; Rev. J. B Anderson will preach at both hours. Communion at 3:30 p. m., every member, together with members of slater churches are invited to attend the '3:30 services, Preaching, by Rev. Anderson
for the next 15 nights. Everybody invited. All pastors are hereby given a special invitation, by authority of pastor May. The rally has been positively fixed for the fourth Sunday in Jan. 1007.
Death of Harry Elliott Battese, Sr.
Mr. Harry E. Battese, Sr., died at his home White Bluff on Tuesday afternoon Oct. 30th, at 130 o'clock, after a lingering sickness of two months. This is the first time he has been sick in 27 years. Mr. Battese was well known in Savannah where he has lived for a number of years. He was born on St. Catherine Island, Jan. 14, 1844. He lived there many years after Emancipation. When quite young, he married to Mrs. Nancy Battese who still survive him. In 1879 he moved to Savannah where he resided until 1883, then moved to White Bluff where he lived to the time of his death. He was well liked both in Savannah and White Bluff. He was a man who made many friends and one who retained the friendship he made. He was a consistant christian. He was a member of Mt. Herman Baptist Church and also its, oldest deacon. He was well liked by the congregation and the whole community. He was 'one of the organizers of Mt. Olive Association. President also of the Farmers Benevolent Aid Association, of which bore his remains to the cemetery. He also held office in both. He was a father of many children of which eight survive him. Mr. Battese was survived by his wife, one sister, Mrs. E. Kell, three sons H. E. Jr., D. Emanuel and Benj. A Battese, and five daughters, Mrs. P. Sherman, Mrs. L. Renear, Mrs. M. Harris, Mrs. H. Small and Mrs. Wm. Grayson. All were with him when the end came, except his youngest son, Benj. Battese who is away and I do not know of his death. Beside these he leave a host of relatives to mourn his death which will be felt in Savannah as well as at White Bluff.
In Memory of
REV. S. BEAUFORD
Who departed this life Nov. 3rd, 1905.
My dear husband is gone to rest.
To reign with God forever blessed.
Oh I could I see his shinning face.
Delighted with that happy place?
Or could I hear his praising tongue;
Chanting in those Heavenly songs?
Or could I hear his glorious voice
Ringing in that Heavenly choice
Why should I wish him again?
But say dear one with God remain
Sleep on Dear one sleep and take your
rest
I love Thee well but God loves thee best
Rest on, rest on, on that peaceful shore
Until we meet to part no more.
I feel lonely to give my love one up
But will bow in humble submission to
His will.
His will.
What is our lost is Heaven's gain.
E. V. BEAUFORD.

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there 1s 2
kind of dyspepsia that is eaused bya
derangement cf the female organism,
and-which, while it causes 9 distusb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
canrot be relieved withort a medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonie,
but basa peculiar tonic effect on the fe-
male organ.sm.
As proof of this theory we call at-
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. ¥., who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound after every-
thing else hed failed. She writes:
“For two yeors I suffered with dyspepsia
which so degencratod the entire system that I
was unable to attend to my daily duties. I
felt woak and nervous, and notbing that Tate
tasted good and it caused e disturbance in my

“Chevrent’s Black,” Which is Hack-
er Than Black Velvet.
A simple experiment is one on
blackness, You know that no paint
or any other substance in the world
is perfectly black, but there is a way
to make a Aspe appear so that tt
will look blackd#évon than black vel
vet.
: Paint the inside of a pasteboard
box black or cover it with dead black
cloth. In the lid of the box make a
hole, being careful not to make It
Jarger than one-tenth of the surface
aly
of the Hd. If now you hold.the bor
go that the light will not strike the
hole directly and look through the
hole into the box the hole will ap-
pear Intensely black.
Make the hole in the form of a de-
sign or an imp or a brownle, and
even if you paint the Ild black, when
you look through the hole you will
see the figure darker than the dark
background. 5
‘Tho black produced by this’method

at the sides of the tubes than in the
middle, This is due to the pressure
of the air on the surface of the water,
and to what {s known as edpillary at-
traction, this last causing the water
to rise in the’sides of the tube.
Now thrust the tubes into mercury,
and an exactly opposite effect will be
produced, as shown in the darker
picture, for the mercury will have a
lower level inside the tubes than out-
side, and as it has a tendency to slip
away from the glass surface rather
than to cling to it there is no capil-
lary attraction, and it falls downward
at the sides and curves upward in
the centre. Besides, it will rise high-
er in the larger tubes than in the
smaller ones.
A similar experiment may be made
with two flat pleces of glass, placed
together like a wedge, and held so
by a broad rubker band, a piece of
wood being placed at the,top and the
bottom of the open pal as shown
in the SMustration,
Now dip this wedge into water,
and you will iid that the water will
rise higher where the picces of glass
come together than at the open part,
thus making a curved surface. Dip
it into mercury and the curve will be
reversed, the mercury having 2 lower
level where the pleces of glass come
together—New York Mail.

Professor J. J, Thornson, in a re-
rent lecture on the modern theory
of the constitution of matter at the
Royal Institution, said that the atom
is now regarded as being made up of
“masses of positive and negative elec-
tricities.” The negative electricity,
eventwhon not attached to a material
particle, fs conceived to exist as an
extremiely small, discreet particle in
{tself, Such electric particles are
called corpuscles. It has been proved
that they are less than a thousandth
of the size of a hydrogen atom, Pro-
fessor Thernson spoke of them as
“the bricks of atoms.” It should
not be inferred, however, that they
are packed together in the atom like
bricks laid immovable jn a wall.
They move freely, and i a vacuum
their velocity may range between

Investigation in France by E. S. Lon-
don. Using a quarter of a grain of
radium he applied this to the forearm
for brief intervals, and obtained a
distinct reaction after a minimuin ex-
posure of fifteen seconds. He sus-
pended four grainsof radium bromide
in a cage about eighteen inches long
by sixteen wide and twelve high.
Three rabbits confined in this cage
‘showed redness of the ears after six-
‘teen days, while burns soon appeared
‘on the backs, and after fourteen
‘months the backs and heads were de-
‘nuded of fur and covered with ulcers.
“Movements had become apathetic and
‘slow, the bind legs being partially
‘paralyzed. The eyes were affected,
and post-mortem examinations re-
vealed changes, and degenerations in

‘The expansive force of compressed
air is émployed in a very interesting
way by the North Carolina Granite
Company. Ona sloping hillstde, com-
posed of granite which shows no bed
planes, but splits readily in apy di-
rection when started, a three-inch
bore is sunk about eight feet deep,
and the bottom is enlarged by ex-
ploding a halt-stick of dynamite, A
small charge of powder Is fired In this
hole, whicn starts a horizontal crack
vor cleavage. Charges increasing in
size are exploded until the cleavage
has extended over a radius of seven-
ty-five or 100 feet. Then a pipe is
cemented into the bore, and afr is
forced in, under a pressure of from
elghty to 100 pounds. The expansion
of the air extends the cleavage until
it comes out at the surfice on the
slope of the hill. A horizontal sheet
of granite several acres in extent may
thus be separated.

Seren Rules For Loneerity.
‘The following rules for Hving to
a ripe, old age are given by Mrs.
Henderson in her recently published
yolume, ‘the Aristocracy of Health
(Harpers):
1, Study the laws of nature for
health and the remedies of nature
for cure.
2. Avoid all poisons. 5
2. Take abundant exercise in pure
air, but always short of fetigue. So
exercise that every portion of the
body is equally benefited. As it
takes a strong engine for a long jour-
ney, cultivate lung-power by slow,
deep-breathing exercises.
4. Eat only the amount of food
that nature needs, and study what
to eat from a selentific point of
view.
| 6, Cultivate normal sleep. Live
and sleep only in rooms that are well
‘sunned, well ventilated, and not over-
heated.
| 6, Cultivate the habit of work in
connection with some worthy ambi-
/tion, for healthy .erercise of body
and mind is as strengthening as re-
‘pose, and should balance it. Work
while you work and rest while you
rest, avolding all worry, Make your-
self useful to the world, and feel
that you have a mission in it.
7. Avold all environments, the
worst of which fs the friend who en-
courages you to poison yourself,

People are governed by habit even

er, having firmly-fixed in mind tho
fdeal for the Irish potato—that is a
dry, mealy potatce—is disposed to sac-
tifice quality to make the sweet po-
tato conform to this standard.

f A Unigde Lamb Trough.
In the’ Breeders’ Gazette a corre-
sperdent gives an illustration, as
well as a deseription, of what we be-
Heve to be a very unique trough for
the purpose of feeding lambs. It
is as follows:
‘The accompanying sketch shows
the mest practical lamb trough I
have ever seen, The {dea of this
trough Is to teach the lambs to feed
at an early age and {t prevents them
Trom jumping into the trough. Take

about one and a half feet from the
stound, ‘The lamb fs considered the
most curious of domestic animals.
It walks,up to the trough, puts its
nose in the trough and by doing so
the trough will gently swing from
the Jamb; the latter becomes curlous
to know what this means and follows
it up, and ‘finally the lamb is freely
eating the food placed in the trough
for it, This trough has been used
with marked success by one of the
uiost extensive feeders in our cour-
try. It wHl be best to use locust

Weaning Pies.
One of the best ways of weaning
pigs is to place a small trough just
ontside the pen when they are abont
iwo weeks old, and in it put a small
quantity of skim-nilk once_a day.
Wt is a good idea to set, the trough
down in the ground a litle, so they
can easily get thelr heads into it.
‘They will soon find it, and when the
milk is poured in will come to it.
As soon as; they learn where it is
the milk shold have a small quan-
tity of corn-meal, bran. and mid-
dlings mixed with it, About the
fourth week tlie milk, corn-meal,
‘bran and middlings should be mixed
to a moderately thick slop. Gradu-
ally therease the thickening until it
is more like a mush than a slop, and
feed twice a day regularly, so they
will be on hand at feading time.
‘Treattd in thfs manner they wih al-
‘most wean themselves, especially if
they have plenty of clover or ‘grass.
‘The trough in which they arc fed
sur always be kept clean and sweet,
especiaily while the pigs are small.
Food that has soured is apt to cause
trouble with the bowels. Pigs that
are weaned in this way'are not
checked in growth when the mother
is removed. If the milk “supply is
limited, water may be 2died to it

Mules Versus Horses.
Much blame hes often been at-
trivluted {o farmers because they have
not, for instance, availed thoriselve:
of the most modern machinery, the
most extensive drainage, the best
systems of road making, the most
fashionable brecds of cattle, ete.
When 1 hear these disparaging re-
marks I generally reply that thos2
who make them*shou!d et-once as-
sume the responsibility of-some va-
cant land and give thelr opinions
by example rather than by precept.
The “player” at farming would
soon find that half the mechanical
contrivances are uscless _ nettlc
creepers, that deep expensive draln-
age of stlif poor clays dozs not re-
main effective Joug enough to p2y
and that certain fashionable beety
reeds are useless and profitiess in a
milking herd.
‘There is another permanent or
oft repeated ery, however, viz: Why
do not farmers breed. big mules,
which ‘animats are found so advan-
tageous in various paris of the
world, their claims resting uyon their
freedom {fom sickness or unsound-
ness, their hardihood, longevity,
tariftiness on cheap rough food end
their ability to-work in any climate?
* No one can dispute these and other
claims of 2 like character which they
inherit from the donkey tibe; but
I beg to submit that from the same
source they also inkerit the follow-
ing undesirable list: In compacison
with a horse they are weak in muscle
and limb, seriously deficient in ner-
vous force, sadly wanting in the
organs af respiration it not of eiren-
Jation, lacking In courage and in the
spirit of emulation which carries on
the noble horse, and obstinate and
sulky, just when an extra effort fs re-
quired. :
In the service of their masters,
the horse,-the camel and the reindeer
are the only animals which will exert
themselves sufficiently to cause death.
‘The ox, the ass and the nfule draw a
diplomatic line in thofr own individ-
ual protection, but # do not rellect
upon them for this In respect of
agricultural work, because I bave
found the over-willing horse some-
times damaged by thoughtless men.
A ee ey be or
On the field of battle, however, a-will-
ing horse would serve far better
than a sulky mule, and I now come
to the point of my contention.
‘Different breeds and strains of
horses have different characteristics,
some being showy, but delicate in
constitution, whilst others are not
so attractive, though nearly as hardy
asa mule. Now, I would urge that
in all work wherein a mule is cox.
sidered guftable, employ a horse of
mulish character and he will do the
work better than any mule can. By
experts these hardy horses are often
called pigs, because they eat any-
thing, are never sick or sorry, but
are ever ready like a mule,
Were these same horses cultivated
as they should be, a breed could be
established that would work twenty
years and be ever immune from all
the besetting ailments to which the
more siowy animal is subject, and
on the field of battle would super-
sede the best of mules.—\W. R. Gil-

Hudson to Attend Convention
Commissioner of Agriculture Thos. G. Hudson has accepted an invitation to attend and address the annual convention of commissioners of agriculture for southern states, which will convene at Jacksonville, Fla., on November 19th, remaining in session through the 21st. He will talk of agricultural conditions in Georgia.
Fourth Georgia Regiment
The twenty-second annual reunion of the Survivors' Association of the Fourth Georgia Regiment — R. S. Cheves, president; C. E. Furlow, secretary—will be held in Savannah in connection with the state reunion on November 13th, 1906. Place and hour of meeting can be ascertained at division headquarters.
Mercer Accepts Big Donation. Mercer's board of trustees formally agreed to accept the gift of $75,000 from the general education board of New York as a starter for the $300,000 endowment fund at a meeting in Macon a few days ago. President S. Y. Jamieson laid the offer before the body and plans were immediately made to Have the remaining portion subscribed by the end of 1907.
Nineteen Negroes Secure Release. Judge Roan of the superior court, criminal division, in Atlanta, Friday, issued an order releasing 19 of the 39 negroes indicted, and 42 of whom are in jail for murder in connection with the killing of County Policeman J. L. Heard in South Atlanta. Twenty-three were ordered held for trial. The 19 negroes ordered released will have to sign a personal bond. This step was taken because the county police could not identify them personally, although they had witnesses.
Life Sentence for Wife Poisoner. In the case of Reason Handley, charged with poisoning his wife, on trial at Irwinville for two days, before Judge Martin, the jury after being out five hours, returned a verdict of murder in the first degree with the recommendation of a life term in the penitentiary, on account of the evidence being mostly circumstantial. Judge Martin pronounced sentence, in accordance with the recommendation. The parties are members of prominent Irwin county families, and had been married only two weeks.
Poison Charge Fell Flat.
G. L. Groover of Chelsea, Chattooga county, who was charged with having sent a bottle labeled Dr. DeWitto's kodol nerve tonic to Mrs. Ely Hooks of that place, which contained strychnine poison, out of which she took a dose, and from the effects of which she died in a short time, had his preliminary trial before Justice Rush at Summerville, which lasted two days. Groover was discharged by the justice, he holding there was not sufficient evidence to justify binding him over. Quito a large number of witnesses were examined and great interest was evinced by the people of Chattaooga county.
To South Georgia Brigade.
General Joel L. Sweat, brigadier general commanding the south Georgia brigade of Confederate Veterans, has issued the following general orders:
"Every one who can should attend the annual reunion of the Georgia division, United Confederate Veterans, at the beautiful and hospitable city of Savannah on the 13th and 14th of this month.
"The railroad fare will be 2 cents a mile for the round trip and the hotels and boarding houses will give reduced rates. Moreover, preparations are being made for the pleasure and comfort of all who attend while in Savannah.
"That those who attend will have a good time and greatly enjoy the occasion is assured.
"Miss Florrie May Heath of Thomasville is hereby appointed sponsor, and Miss Kate C. Hall of Brunswick maid of honor for the South Georgia brigade," with Colonel T. N. Hopkins of Thomasville and Major W. B. Boroughs of Brunswick as escorts."
State Should Accept Refinery. Commissioner of Agriculture Thomas G. Hudson has recently inspected the government syrup refinery at Waycross, and announces that he will recommend its acceptance by the state of Georgia, to whom it has been tendered free of cost, provided the state will continue, to operate it in connection with the experiment farm. "The offer seems a good one to me," said Mr. Hudson. "The plant and property are easily worth $25,000, and I shall recommend its acceptance by the state. I will make my recommendation to the board of trustees of the state experiment station at its meeting on January 11."
The refinery was established some years ago by the government to show the people of south Georgia the class of syrup that can be made from native cane. It has been established that the Georgia cane makes the best syrup to be obtained, and the farmers fu. Ware and adjoining counties have
learned valuable lessons from the refinery. Having served its purpose, the govement, through an act of congress has offered the plant and adjacent farm to the state free of all cost, provided the state will agree to continue the operation of the refinery and the cultivation of cane.
Fee System Denounced.
Not for many terms has a grand jury of Fulton county had more laborious duties to perform than the grand jury for the September term, which made its general presentments a few days ago to the county superior court.
The system of compensating county officers by fees is condemned, and the failure of the county executive committee to submit this question to a vote of the people of Fulton county is characterized as a travesty on republican institutions. Fifty thousand dollars or more, the grand jury declares, would be annually saved to the taxpayers of the county by the abolishment of the fee system and the substitution of salaries therefor. It is recommended that candidates pledged to this reform be nominated for the legislature of 1908, and that the salary system be also extended to justices of the peace.
In no uncertain language the presentments criticize the failure of the police force, taken as a whole, to adopt stringent measures at the very inception of the recent riot to protect the innocent and helpless.
That the cotton producer should go slow in acting upon the strength of the recent ginners' report and the "bear" claims of a late crop, is the warning given by President M. L. Johnson of the Georgia Division of the Southern Cotton Association.
"There is no doubt in my mind that the ginners' report to October 25th overshot the mark," President Johnson said. "I base my belief not only upon the fact that we have not had sufficient picking weather since the September report to justify the figures given, and every one is generally aware of the bad weather we have had; but also I am confirmed in my opinion that the figures were too high, by numerous reports which I have received since the ginners' report was published, indicating very clearly that the receipts of cotton did not justify these figures.
"Again I note the claims evidently from 'boar' sources of a late crop—a claim which a moment's thought will convince any one is absurd. The early frosts which are general throughout the cotton belt, stopped the development of the cotton and brought the crop to early maturity.
"I have contended all along and I hold now that cotton is worth today more than 11 cents. I firmly believe that it is worth right now over 12 cents, and that the farmer ought to have at least that price. In this opinion I see I am upheld by one of the foremost industrial writers in the country, Richard H. Edmonds of the Baltimore Manufacturers' Record."
VICTORY FOR STATE OF GEORGIA
Question of Jurisdiction in Copper Case Settled in High Court.
A Washington dispatch says: In the case of the State of Georgia vs. the Tennessee Copper company, an effort or the part of Georgia to secure the suppression of the fumes of smelters located at Ducktown, Tenn., the supreme court of the United States on Monday overruled the demurrer filed by the coinany without prejudice. Final nearing was set for February 25 next. A temporary restraining order was denied.
This action of the United States supreme court means that Georgia's plea for injunction to prevent further destruction of its forests and vegetation in the northern section of the state has a standing in that court, and that it will be given a hearing there on its merits.
It also means that Georgia has practically won her main contention, that as to the jurisdiction of the United States supreme court. It was a fight in which the copper trust was involved, for there are numerous other cases of a similar nature in other states which can now be brought before that court. It was a decision which primarily upholds the right of a state to sue in the United States supreme court, citizens of other states, on behalf of the state or its citizens. In this it establishes an important rule of practice for which there has heretofore been no precedent.
The widespread and growing destruction to forests and vegetation caused by the processes of smelting copper ores by those Tennessee companies have aroused the people of North Georgia to a determination to put an end as speedily as possible to this evil.

WAS HARRIMAN'S DREAM
Coup Involves 23,000 Miles of Track and $1,700,000,000 Capital—The
A New York special says: By the election Wednesday of J. T. Harahan as president of the Illinois Central railroad company, to succeed Stuyvesant Fish, it is believed that E. H. Harriman has at last realized the fulfillment of his plan to control a railroad line from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans.
In this great plan the Illinois Central was the one link missing to complete a line of track from New York to San Francisco and Portland, Ore., from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico and from the gulf to the Pacific again. Until within a few months eastern terminals of the Harriman system were at Kansas City, Omaha and New Orleans. The first important step in the direction of securing the desired outlet on the Atlantic seaboard for the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads, is believed to have been taken by Mr. Harriman several weeks ago when it was reported that one of the roads under his control had taken over control of the Baltimore and Ohio by purchasing a block of forty thousand shares of the Baltimore and Ohio company, which was sold by the Pennsylvania company. This would give Mr. Harriman a route from Chicago and St. Louis to Baltimore and New York.
To complete the ambitious proposition for a continuous line from ocean to ocean it was necessary only to connect the western terminals of the Baltimore and Ohio with the eastern terminals of the Southern Pacific and Union Pacific and this purpose the Illinois Central serves amply. Its line from Omaha to Chicago ties together the Union Pacific and the Baltimore and Ohio, while the Illinois Central branch from Chicago to New Orleans gives the Southern Pacific entrance into Chicago and the seaboard. Taken together this railway system when unified puts under one control more than 23,000 miles of track capitalized at more than $1,700,000,000.
REBUKE FOR WEATHER MAN.
Willis Moore Called Down for Meddling in Union Labor Matter. I president Roosevelt has directed that a reprimand be administered to Willis L. Moore, chief of the weather bureau, for his action in the case of a printer named Cooper, in his office who had been expelled from the Typographical Union for not paying his strike assessments.
Mr. Moore, it is alleged, urged Cooper on two occasions to pay his assessments, but the latter refused and he was expelled from the union. Following this, Cooper was transferred to New Orleans, and he claimed that this action, on the part of Moore, was intended as a punishment for him for not complying with the demands of the Typographical Union.
The matter was referred to the civil service commission, which, without reporting on the question of whether or not Cooper's transfer was intended as a punishment, held that Mr. Moore's action in urging the payment of the strike assessments was improper. Under the circumstances the commission expressed the opinion that Cooper's transfer would not be for the good of the servie, as this would give the impression that it was intended as a punishment. Accordingly Cooper will be reinstated in his position in the weather bureau in Washington and a reprimand to Mr. Moore will, at the direction of the president, be administered by the secretary of agriculture.
ALEXANDER PLEADS GUILTY.
Augusta Embezzler Sentenced to Six Years in the Pen.

Captain Aldrich Soes Opening Wedge
in Muddle at San Francisco.
Captain J. H. Aldrich, a nephew of Major General Shafter, and formerly provost marshal for the middle province of Luzon, sees in the present Japanese agitation against the exclusion of pupils from San Francisco schools a move in a campaign to acquire possession of the Philippines. Captain Aldrich declares that ever since Dewey captured Manila the Japanese have been eager to get the islands. He says Japanese are now pouring across from Formosa to Luzon and settling in the extreme northern part of the island.
CHILDREN WITNESS MURDER.
Sixty Pupils of School See Young Lady Teacher Stain.
In the presence of sixty pupils, in a school at Cleveland, Ohio, Wednesday, Harry Smith, 25 years old, shot to death Miss Mary Shepard, a teacher, 22 years old. Going behind the barn in the rear of his home in Warronsville two hours later, Smith shot himself through the head, dying instantly.
Disappointment in love is said to have been the motive for the cold-blooded murder.
