AN OCEAN HORROR
Steamer Goes Down and 150 People Find Watery Grave.
Frightful Disaster Occurred Off New England Coast, and Freezing Weather Added to Tortuces of Victims of Icy Waves.
A marine disaster with an appalling loss of life, and entailing suffering almost beyond the limit of human endurance came to light Tuesday, when a lifeboat of the Joy line steamer Larchmont, bound from Providence to New York, drifted into the harbor at Block Island, R. L.
In the boat were several bodies of men, who had died from the effects of long hours of exposure to a death-dealing temperature. In the boat also were eleven men, whose sufferings were so intense that they seemed oblivious to the fact that death was in their midst, and that they had escaped only by virtue of their ability to withstand the rigor of ley weather when in an open boat at sea.
The boat brought a tale of disaster that has rarely been equaled in New England waters, and it is believed that when the final count is made it will. Be found that not less than 50 lives were lost. Following closely in the wake of the solitary life boat, came the bodies, boats and rafts washed upon the beach by angry waves. Owing to the condition of the survivors, it was impossible to get from them an estimate of the loss of life. From seventy to one hundred and fifty persons went to their death, the latter figure being nearer correct.
The steamship officials estimated that about 150 passengers and a crew of fifty were on board the steamer when she left Providence Monday night. Forty-eight bodies reached the shore Tuesday, and 19 were alive when taken from the lifeboats. Taking the estimated figures of the steamship officials, and the known list as a basis, there are still many persons to be accounted for. The only positive evidence of the steamer's victims is lying at the bottom of Block Island Sound. The list of passengers and crew, handed to the purser just before the steamer left Providence, was locked in a safe, and it was not recovered.
The cause of the accident has not been satisfactorily explained. It occurred just on Watch Hill, about 11 o'clock Monday night, when the three-masted schooner, Harry Knowlton, found from South Amboy for Boston, with a cargo of coal, crushed into the steamer's port side amid ships Captain George McVey of the Larchmont declares that the Knowlton suddenly swerved from her course, lifted up into the wind, but crashed into his vessel.
The steamer, with a huge hole torn in her side, was so seriously damaged that no attempt was made to run for shore, and she sank to the bottom in less than half an hour. The Knowlton, after she had backed away from the wreck, began to ill rapidly, but her crew manned the pumps.
and kept her afloat until she reached a point at Quonochontaug where they put out in the lifeboat and rowed ashore. There were no fatalities on the schooner.
A majority of those on the Larchmont had retired for the night, and when the collision occurred thers were few with the exception of the crew prepared for the weather which prevailed.
BIG COTTON RECEIFS.
Galveston Port Breaks All Local Records to Date.
Galveston, Texas, has broken all local records in cotton receipts. Since September 1, Galveston has received 3,003,458 bales of cotton, and the uptake continues to arrive at an average of 20,000 bales per day. The record for the entire season of 1905-06 was 2,656,000.
BIDS WILL BE ASKED
For Construction of Georgia Building at Jamestown.
W. N. Mitchell, chairman of the Jamestown commission, announces that bids for the work, on the Georgia building at the exposition will be advertised for at once; plans and specifications, are ready, and as soon as the bids are all in the contract will be let.
Mr. Mitchell also announces that the board of aldermen of Columbus has ratified the gift of $1,000 to the Georgia building fund.
A CROSSING HORROR.
Train of Wild Cars Strikes Trolley Loaded with Workmen and Four Men Are Mangled to Death.
A cut of wild cars shifted by a Southern freight engine crashed into a crowded street car at the crossing at Twenty-seventh street and First avenue in Dirmingham, Ala., about 7:15 o'clock. Friday night, with the result that four people were instantly killed and many others badly injured.
The car struck was a trailer filled with people returning to their homes at East Lake. The trailer is reserved for men who wish to smoke, and no women were on it. The trailer was turned completely over, and pushed for some distance.
The Twenty-seventh street crossing is a veritable death trap, more than a dozen accidents having happened there. It is at a number of furnaces, among them being those of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron company. The street cars at this point have to cross about a dozen tracks, those of the Louisville and Nashville, the Southern and other roads. The engineer of the freight train, R. L. Carnes, says that he had a heavy train of coal cars, and that the cut broke loose accidentally and struck the street car. The judge has actively alided the police in the capture of Italian lawbreakers recently.
Judge Corese was 48 years of age, and of Italian descent. His office was at 23 Passaic street. His son, Robert, received the infernal machine, which came from Newark, and was delivered by an American Express wagon. Robert handed the package to his father, who removed the outside wrapper. Inside was another wrapper of paper, made fast with a strap. The judge rested the package on the desk and pulled the end of the strap toward him, so as to loosen the tongue of the buckle. The moment he did so there was an explosion.
A hoe 6 feet square was torn in the floor, and at the desk was driven down into the cellar and torn to pieces. The boy was hurled into a corner, and seriously bruised and burned.
Judge Corese had both legs and both arms broken, his face and body torn and lacerated, and his back apparently broken. He was removed to St. Joseph's hospital, where his antemortem statement was made.
MORE CASH FOR EMPLOYEES.
Norfolk and Western Railway Grants Increase in Wages.
The following wage increases which have been granted to employees by the Norfolk and Western Railway company were announced in Roanoke, Va., Friday.
Engineers from $4.25 to $4.60 per day; yard enginemen, from $3.75 to $4.25 per day; brakemen, from $1.65 to $2.10 per 100 miles, and 21 cents per hour for overtime; passenger brakemen from $1.20 to $1.35 per 100 miles.
Clay is Asked by Republicans Not to Press Phillipine Resolution. An effort has been made by the administration senators to induce Senator Clay not to press consideration of his resolution, calling upon the secretary of war to furnish detailed information as to military operations and expenditures in the Phillipine Islands since 1902. They contend the resolution is inopportune.

FOR INSULTING FARMER'S WIFE.
East Point, Ga., Man is Shot to Death
in Public Road.
According to a report-received from Machen, Ga., C. P. Dorsey of East Point, was shot and instantly killed by Emmett Newton, a well known young farmer of Jasper county.
The tragedy occurred in a public road near Machen and is said to have been the result of Dorsey having made improper proposals to Newton's wife, while alone at her home Saturday. There were several eye-witnesses to the killing.
SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. FEBRUARY 16. 1907.
OUSTS DISPENSARY
South Carolina State Liquor Institution is Abolished.
LOCAL OPTION CINCHED
Governor, Fires Members of Dispensary Board Who Are Charged With Gross Mismanagement and Crooked Dealing.
The South Carolina state senate, Saturday, by a vote of 21 to 15, passed the Carey bill abolishing the state dispensary system and substituting a local option system between county dispensaries and prohibition.
This ends South Carolina's experiment of 14 years with the state dispensary system of handling whiskey and is a distinct defeat for the dispensary element which has had the leadership of Senator Tillman.
The house has already passed the local option bill by a large majority and the bill will become law as soon as signed by Governor Ansel, who was elected on a platform carrying out this local option idea.
Governor Ansel at once removed from office the three members of the state dispensary board who were accused by the legislative committee of gross mismanagement and illegal purchase of whiskey.
These members are J. M. Rawlingzon, of Richland; J. B. Wylie, of Chester, and John V. Black, of Colleen.
The removal came only a few days before the board would be removed from office by the bill abolishing the dispensary, which the legislature has passed.
SOUTH WILL GET SHARE.
Rockefeller's Mammoth Gift Will Be Widely Distributed.
'A New York dispatch says: Frederick T. Gates, chairman of the general education board to which John D. Rockefeller gave $2,000,000 a few days ago, says that the income from this gift and the income from Mr. Rockefeller's prior gift of $11,000,000 will be used to increase the resources of various educational institutions in this country within the next decade, by from $200,000,000 to $250,000,000. This is to say, the board will aim to stimulate local pride in and generosity toward public institutions and colleges throughout the nation, and its distribution of the income will usually be conditioned upon the raising of larger amounts by the recipient.
It is understood that the idea of the elder Rockefeller is to make his future benefactions through his son. This is said to be indicated by his having made the gift of last Thursday through the junior Rockefeller. It is probable that the younger Rockefeller will devote most of his time hereafter to administering the benevolence of his father. As an immediate result of this big gift, the board will extend its agricultural demonstration work to all of the Southern states. It is predicted that this work, which consists in conducting model farms on educational lines, will mean the agricultural rejuvenation of the South.
VALE NEW YORK CHINATOWN.
Home of the Celestials Will Be Replaced by a Park.
The heart of New York's Chinatown was officially wiped out at a meeting of the board of estimates, when a new park was authorized, it is understood, on the block bounded by the Bowery, Doyers, Peil and Mott streets.
Much of the property is owned by Chinese firms and individuals. The tract includes the Chinese theater, the Chinese joss house, in which most of the Chinese worship, and has long been considered the most picturesque pest spot in the city.
BANKER HAS LEVANTED
And Big Shortage in Accounts Has Been Unearthed in His Wake.
A high officer of the Savings Bank of New Britair, Conn., states that there is a big shortage in the accounts of William F. Walker, the missing treasurer of the bank, and that the bank's own officers up to soon had discovered a shortage of $150,000.
The examination of the bank's affairs will be continued and the officers say, doubtless the shortage will be found to be much larger.
THREE PAPERS NAMED
By President for Exclusion from the Mails for Printing Disgusting De-
A Washington special says: President Roosevelt notified the members of the cabinet Tuesday morning that he would personally favor excluding from the malls two New York newspapers and one Brooklyn paper, which he named, for publishing in detail the "foul, disgusting particulars" of the Thaw trial.
The proposal provoked a very earnest discussion, but it was the opinion of the president's advisers that such damage as the case would work upon the public morals had already been wrought, and that by the time the exclusion order could be carried into effect, the case would practically be at an end.
The three papers mentioned by the president published almost entire the recital of Evelyn Neabit Thaw on the witness stand, and one paper used a stenographic report.
Postmaster General Cortelyou has given it as his opinion that it will be impossible to bar the publications above referred to from the mails. He says it is impossible to establish any fixed regulation in similar cases, as no two cases are alike, and each case must stand on its own merits. It is likewise recognized that in nearly all such cases the damage has been done before it is possible to get official action.
Mr. Cortelyou said that he had turned over to the attorney general papers of some similar cases, together with court decisions, with a request that he read them. Mr. Cortelyou will discuss the matter later with the attorney general.
The authorities of the postoffice department practically admit that it is too late to do anything that can have a bearing on the publication of the Thaw trial, as by the time the attorney general has looked carefully into the case the trial will probably be nearing an end.
Attorney General Bonaparte will make a careful examination of the papers submitted to him, which include a number of newspapers containing verbatim reports of the trial, before he renders an opinion.
TO BAR JAP COOLIES.
Their Exclusion Proposed to Congress by President Roosevelt.
President Roosevelt, through Secretary Root, has proposed to Speaker Cannon and to the chairman of the senate and house committees on immigration, and other republican leaders in congress, that a clause be inserted in the immigration bill now pending in congress, which will bar Japanese coole labor from the United States. Mayor Schmitz' San Francisco delegation favors such a provision.
It is admitted at the Japanese emassy that representations have been exchanged between the Japanese ambassador, Viscount Aoki, and Secretary Root, but the nature of the communications are kept secret.
SEABOARD PRESIDENT DEAD.
Alfred Walter, Veteran Railroad Manager, Passes Away in New York. President Alfred Walter of the Seaboard Air Line, died at his home in New York Tuesday. Mr. Walter was 56 years of age and a railroad man all his life. He began as a soldier man on the Allegheny Valley railroad in 1872 and worked gradually upward until he held important positions with several of the big eastern lines.
WALKER IS CHAIRMAN
Of Committee Which Will Handle
Cotton Association Funds.
Having authorized at the Birmingham convention last January to establish a general finance committee, President Harvie Jordan of the Southern Cotton Association was announced the appointment of Jozu B. Walker of Sparta, Ga., president of the First National Bank of Sparta, as chairman of this responsible committee.
LOTTERY GAME BROKEN UP.
Apparently the government has won an extraordinary victory as a result of the prosecution it has instituted against the managers and agents of the Honduras lottery. Suits have been brought in various places throughout the country, one indictment has been piled upon another and things have been made so hot for the lottery people that they have thrown up the sponge and have gone out of business.
FOR STATE RIGHTS
Pleads for State of California In Position Taken In School Row at 'Frisco'—Laws of State Su-
Federal encroachment on state rights, with the Japanese school question as the principal illustration, was the subject of an address to the senate Friday by Senator Frazier of Tennessee. Mr. Frazier said that this was not a question that, concerned California, but concerned the right of every state to control its domestic affairs.
If the federal government by treaty could rob a state of the right to control its own school system, the last stronghold of local self-government was destroyed. If a treaty could force Mongolians into the white schools of California, a like treaty could force the negroes of Cuba, Santo Donlingo, Hayttl and the Congo into the schools of Tennessee in defiance of the laws for the separation of the races.
He expressed the highest admiration for the Japanese, but said that the action of California furnished no pretext for a quarrel with that country. The school board of San Francisco had simply executed a state law providing for the education of white and Japanese children in separate schools. It had been decided over and over again that states had a perfect right to make such separation. That the state of California was but exercising its legal and constitutional power. He denied with emphasis that this government had ever undertaken by treaty to interfere with the constitutional rights of California.
"I challenge any one to find in the treaty a word guaranteeing to Japanese residents the right to enter public schools of the states at all, much less to enter them in defiance of state laws and regulations.
"The United States government cannot compel a state to create public schools at all. The schools were creatures of state laws, maintained by state taxation and subject only to state control. The right of residence guaranteed to the Japanese implied the right to work and make a living, but not to go to school. But even if the right of residence did carry with it the right to enter public schools," he added, "it did not carry any exception from the right of separation in the schools. The treaty with Japan provided that the Japanese 'must conform themselves to the laws police regulations of the country like native citizens.' Can it be contended that Japanese aliens have acquired higher privileges than they would have as citizens of the United States?"
He contended that the president ought to have followed the example of Mr. Blainie in the case of the lynching of Italian citizens in New Orleans. There was a treaty with Italy, which guaranteed protection to Italian citizens, but when the Italian government complained Mr. Blaine informed it that Italian citizens had no higher rights than American citizens and that the right to punish for murder was the exclusive province of the states where the crime was committed.
Mr. Frazier said he did not believe we had reached the point where we must apologize for our constitution or change its character by construction at the dictation of a foreign power.
Our trouble with Japan, he said, had its origin in our colonial policy which had inspired a fear in the nations of the east that we were attempting to dominate, the politics and commerce of the Orient. Mr. Frazier dwelt at length on the recent speech of Secretary Root, which he declared to be a threat to wipe out state lines and absorb all power of the state into the government.
"When," he said, "the states are deprived of the right to judge whether and how far they shall exercise their powers we cease to be a free people. The secretary intimated that this usurpation of power was necessary to control the trusts. Before seeking to rob the states of their power, let the federal government use its own. Let it reduce the monstrous tariff which had built up and was protecting the trusts."
It was not necessary, said Mr. Frazier, to make the rights and powers of states conform to a standard set up by the chief executive alone.

NO.20.
Delegation of Californians Hold Conferences With President Roosevelt—Both Sides Juggling.
A Washington dispatch says: President Roosevelt and the authorities of San Francisco, at a meeting at the White House Saturday, reached the mutual understanding that the California-Japanese school question can be adjusted without danger of any serious difficulty with Japan. The details of the adjustment are not agreed upon.
It was authoritatively stated after the meeting that the one accomplishment of the conference was a mutual understanding that a settlement could be reached which was satlyfactory, and which would leave no ground for trouble making complaint by Japan.
The California delegation came to Washington, it is stated, with nothing in the nature of an ultimatum, but rather open to the consideration of any basis of settlement which the administration might propose. The conference was attended by President Roosevelt and Secretary Root, representing the administration, and by Mayor E. E. Schmitz, the members of the Board of education, the superintendent of schools and the assistant city attorney of San Francisco, representing the educational interests of the city. Mayor Schmitz, in speaking of the conference, said:
Nothing has been decided and no proposition is pending. between now and the time of the next conference our delegation will prepare an outline of its case. We are prepared to receive and consider proposals from the president and the secretary of state, or to make proposals."
Two Sunday Conferences.
Mayor Schnitz and the members of the San Francisco school board were in conference twice Sunday, and formally agreed on the policy they will pursue, in connection with the question of the Japanese and the San Francisco schools. The mayor and members of the board have refused to make any statement as to what position they will take.
More than 300 telegrams were received by Mayor Schmitz and the members of the board during the day, urging them to stand firm for the exclusion of the Japanese coolies from the United States. A telegram received by Mayor Schmitz from the president of the California Exclusion League, in part, reads:
"Morning papers announce in big headlines that Schmitz deserts labor for Japanese, mayor and school board make complete surreuder. We cannot and will not believe it. Exclusion League demands exclusion by net of congress, treaty will not exclude. Sovereign rights must not be bartered away by promises, and should not be basis for compromise. We will not yield one lota of our rights as a sovereign people regardless of cost or consequence."
Mayor Schmitz's reply to this telegram, in part, follows:
"Telegram received. Announcement of morning papers absolutely false. Have made no arrangement up to date of any kind. Story false like all other statements made about me. Have refused to give any statement to reporters. President has refused also. Conference completed, and is showing friendly spirit. I am a Californian trying to do my duty to my state. Cannot succeed if hampered by hostile press of San Francisco."
The Californians will present their views to President Roosevelt in writing. Secretary Root spent two hours at the White House-Sunday night discussing the school question with the president and it can be authoritatively stated that the president will assure Mayor Schmitz and the school board that if they will agree to end the agitation by abolishing the Oriental school the president will. In turn, use his influence to secure a treaty with Japan that will exclude the coolie from this country.

|The Hero of the Brigade!
considered a man. His father had
belonged to the fire brigade, and he
died from wounds inflicted while en-
deavoring to save the inmates of a
burning house. His mother had died
from the shock, and had left behind
her little baby boy, Mike, when he
was only a few days old. :
Another fireman's wife had taken
the tiny fellow to murse with her
own children, and he had been called
Blichael, after his father. As he
grew up he loved to go tq drill with
the brigade ‘men, and to watch them
cleaning the brass of the big fire en-
gines and escapes. He would run,
fetch and carry for the reward of
hearing some story about people res-
cued from burning houses, and so on.
If any boy sere Mable to be spoilt,
that boy would have been Mike, but
it seemed impossible to spoil. He
was always obedient to his foster-
parents and teachers, and “unselfish
toward tha children when-he played
with them.
Mike’s ambition was to go on the
fire engines with the men when they
were called to action, He had often
pleaded to be allowed to go, but in
vain,
One night as he lay ‘dreaming, a
strange light seemed to fill the room
through the window from outside.
‘Tien the cries and shouts of men and
‘women from the street below filled
his.ears. Something was on fire!
‘For a moment his brain. grew dizzy,
and he felt afraid, for he knew that
the fire must be near, Then he
jumped up and looked out of the
window.
The fire station was built with two
Breat wings from the main building,
and between them was a large court-
yard. In this courtyard Mike could
See a throng of people looking up'to-
ward the house, their faces lit by
some light which came from above—
whence he could not tell. With trem?
bling hands he pushed up the win-
dow and looked up. The flames came
from the rdof of the very building he
awas in. The fire was quite close to
him!
Wher the people saw Mike at the
“window they gave a great shout.
The little fellow "looked down on
the great seething mass of faces and
then above and around at the huge
‘flames leaping and jumping higher
and higher. They seemed to be clos-
dng if all around him. He wondered
‘how jt was he had been left there
alone, when a child's cry of fear
jmade him turn around to see little
‘Willie, a child of three, come through
his bedroom door. As the door was
opened a volume of dense smoke
poured in, and beyond Mike could
‘see the angry red flames that curled
up and up. For a moment the smoke
blinded him, then he rushed. forward
vand-slammed the door to, clasping
the little sobbing boy in his arms,
“I’se so ftwightened,” Willie whim-
pered.
“Hush! bush!” said Mike sooth-
ingly to the little fellow, who was
motherless liké himself and a great
favorite. “Mike will take care of
you”
‘This he said with great courage,
but feeling as if he were telling a
story, for he was perplexed and be-
wildered and saw no way of escape.
He took Willie to the window and
cailed and shouted to the people be-
Tow. They called and shouted-in re-
turn, and im the din and roar of
voices Mike could scarcely hear what
they sald. It seemed as it they were
bidding him have courage, that the
fire escapes were all in use on the
other wing of the building, and that
help was coming.
He tried to be brave for Willie's
sake, who was quite happy now. he
Swas no longer alone. He clapped hi:
Inands with glee as he saw-the flames
‘leaping up and laughed in childish
mirth as he watched the people be-
low. :
“What are they all doing, Mike?"
he asked.
And Mike, who saw the smoke
slowly creeping in-under the bed:
room door,and heard the hissing
and crackling of the burning wood,
Jaughed, too, watching all the time
tor.the promised help to come.
Then he saw thn firemen take 2
large blanket and Wold it under the
window where he stood, and whict
was threo stories high. Es knew
what Ahat meant well enough; he
had not lved in a fire station al
his life for nothing, It meant that
be wus to leap from the window dn.
to the blanket, which would be jowe
ered as he reached. it.
For hiniselt he was aot /pfrala,
but for Willie. He was'sich’A little
chap, and could never be peFsyaded
to jump. He could not throw him
into the blanket, for he was but
small himself, and he kiiew instine-
tively that his strength would not
be equal te the task of aiming
straight.
With a ery, almost of agony, and
a tightening of, lls arms around
Willie's baby form, he.hurled himself
into the space below.
Cheer after cheer arose from the.
anxious spectators, but Mike heeded
them’ not, for he was quite stunned
by the fall. When he came to it
was to find himself and Willie in a
warm room and a cosy fire, while
his foster mother was bending over
him and trying to get him to drink
some cordial, a7 ee
“Brave boy!” she whispered; and
Mike's heart jeaped at the words.
Thed she explained to him how
he had been left bebind in the hurry
and confusion of the fire alarm. She
had taken her two childrer away,
meaning ta return for him and Wil-
Ne, But the fire had gained ground
so rapidly that she had been unable
to do as she wished.
“But you are safe ow, my darl-
ing, and little Willie, too. You
saved his life, Mike!”
“Oh, no!” cried Mike, flushing all
over. 7
“Yes,” she returned; “If you Had
not carried him in your arms he
would have, dropped to the ground
throught fright, and been dashed to
pleces, and youcrisked your life by
carrying him, too. Every one says
so.” . .
But Mike would not have it.
“There was, nothing else to do,” he
answered simply, and sald the same
when he was grown up and a fire-
man, with more than one medal from
the Royal Humane Society for sav-
ing lives at the risk of bis own—

A REMARKABLE CAVE.
Was It Hewn Out of Rock by a Smith
For a Smithy?
acti ileal dial
To the majority of residents in
Edinburgh and the vicinity the re-
markable Gllmerton Cave is un-
known, and unvisited even if known
by heazgay. We are not, however,
the first to notice the cave, for In
1782 the Rev. Thomas Whyte, then
minister of Liberton, has the follow-
ing story on record: “Here 1s a fa-
mous cave dug out of a rock by one
George Paterson, a smith. It was
finished {f,1724, after five years’
hard labor, as appears from the in-
seription’on one af the ¢himney
Heads. In this cave are several apart-
ments, several beds, 2 spacious table,
with a large punch bov', all cut out
of the rock in the nicest manner.
Here there was a forge. with a ‘well
and washing house. Here there were
soveral windows, which communicat-
ed light from above. The author of
this extraordinary plece of workman-
ship lived in it for a long time with
nis wife and family, and prosecuted
his business as a smith. He died
In it about the year 1735. He was a
feuar, or feodary, and consequently
the cave he formed and embellished
so much, and the garden above it,
were his own property, and his pos-
terity enjoyed it for some time after
his decease. His cave for many years
was decmed a great cutiosity, and
visited by all the people of fashion.”
‘Having procured the gate key and
a-couple of oll lamps, we unjock the
door, and descend at once by a flight
of twelve steps to the beginning of a
long passage. On the right is the
forge, indisputably enough, on the
lett the jamb of the first doorway.
‘The main passage, which is about six
feet higk and three feet broad
throughout, maintains a stralght di-
rection, roughly, westward for a dis-
tance of forty-one feet. It then turns
abruptly to the northwest, and after
expanding into three rounded cham-
bers ends In a long passage, elghteen
feet long and very narrow, which is
sald to be the beginning of an under-
ground corampinication with Craig-
millar. At the foot of the entrance
steps the doorway on the left Ieads
into a partly straight sided chamber,
which expands into two curved inner
rooms, ‘a ledge of thé rock being left
in each about eighteen inches to serve
as seats or beds. All the hewn work
throughout these chambers and pas-
sages has been done with an imple-
ment of iron, not chisel-shaped, but
sharp pointed. The question arises—
Is the story of George Paterson likely
to be true? Can we find him tn any
records; local or other? Where was
he buried? So remarkable a feat as
the hewing ‘yt of a series of cham-
bers in solld ‘rock and the dwelling
thereln of a blacksmith and his fam-
fly would surely help to keep green
the record of the man who performed
it, But the parish records are silent,
and locally nothing more is known
of Paterson than what is contained in
the statement by the parish minister
of 1782. = :
*.Computing very ronghly the
amount of rock actually hewn and
removed from the cave before the
chambers and passages were in a fit
state for habitation, we are confront~
ed with the result that rock to the
extent of half a million cubical feet
has been thus displaced—probably
an underestimate. Is it creditable
that this quarrying was the work of
one palr of arms, even if those arms
drove the pick for several years?
Judging the work from the stand-
point of archaeology also, wo ‘find
that the Gilmerton Cave fs only one
of a large number of clambered and
reeessed hollows in similar rock,
fhewn in the same style, and with
similar entrances, door jambs’ and
par holes.—Edinburg Scotsman.

Milk Made at Milking. biting of the parasite gives rise
It is claimed that when a gow giv-
ing a large quantity of milk has been
slaughtered “and every drop of milk
gathered up, the largest amount ever
found was about four quarts, hence
milk 1s belleved to beslargely made
during the time of milking, and the
cow must be placed under favorable
conditions at the time, if one does
not get the regular quantity of milk.
Do not thinky that thé milk fs al-
ready there, and all you have to do
is to draw it out, says an authority.
Oniy a small portion {s fn this state;
most of it, is there ready to be

and you must have things favorable
to the cow to have this change.

the copper solution, using a sieve to
remove all coarse matefial. Stir this
mixture and fill the barrel with wa-
ter; it fs then ready for use. For
plants with tender follage only one-
half the amount of copper and Ime
should be used. -
Treatment of Soil. °°
The soll will dry very rapidly and
to aegreat depth if allowed to get
hard and compact. There is but a
‘small space left for alr in solld solls,
and from this fact they become hot
and dry to a great depth in summer,
while if air is present, as it is in
Toose soils (being such a poor con-
ductor of heat), it will allow only a
small portion of soil to become hot,
which soon cools at night and is filled
‘with a copious dew, not only retain-
Ing the moisture already in the sall,
ut also"adding to it at a season
when molsture is especially desir-
able. Newly set trees are always
benefited by cultivation, because all
their roots are surface roots and can-
not thrive in a hot, dry, compact soil,
hence the necessity of Summer sur-
facgeultivation of newly set trees.
Green Food er Poultry.
‘The Gleaner found the-late-sowed
rye—intended as a cover crop for
the garden to be turned under in
spring—a most useful help in ox-
tending the green food season for
poultry. Two or three times a weck
since grass Was deadened by frost he
has cut a supply for the poultry and
they relish it greatly, leaving their
freshly-served inorning mash for it.
The onlyregret it that it was net
sown a few weks earller so that the
clover would have been sufficiently
tall to be.cut with a lawnmower,
‘The seed should be sown at the last
cultivating to give best results. In
the-writer's case it was not sown un-
til after pretty much everything had
been removed from. the ground—
even potatoes. The last clipping was
made Thanksgiving Day. Quite like-
ly the green relish will be “down and
out” after the cold snap.
Knowledce of the San.
‘We have but little more definite
knowledge of the soil and the prin-
ciples involved in its treatment than
we had sixty years ago, says the
Sclentific American, Fertility is not
nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium
alone, though the potential value of
any field, or State, or country, from
the agricultural standpoint, is meas-
ured by these constituent elements
in its soll, yet it has been demon-
strated that soils which contain an
abundance of these elements, and
which are potentially capable of
producing crops for centuries per-
haps, are not capable of producing
profitable crops without the addition
‘of further amounts of these constit-
uents. The chemical investigator is,
therefore, obliged to take into con-
sideration other facts than this. He
must, it he would cover the whole
field, know something of geology,
of botany, of physics, of biology, of
bacteriology, and of the other nat-
ural sciences, because cheniistry
alone is not capable of fully com-
‘passttig the problem, thus the oppor-
tunity for specializing in any branch
has been very great, and it 1s be-
cause of the broadness of the sub-
Ject, and the opportunity, as already

Malige in Cattle. .
4 Mange in cattle is a contagious
Buin ‘diseaso caused by parasites.
‘phree forms of mange occur,a cat-
ie ee eee ee =
He, viz: Sarcoptes, Psorosperm and
Symbrotie. These forms are named
after the Mariety of parasites which
4s the usual agent. Sactoptes mange
in cattle ts uncommon, the other two
being the most prevalent forms and
these frequently exist togéther in-the
same animal. Cows are the most
often attacked. Ss
Symptoms—The most common
gites of mange are the roots of the
tall and the neck, especially the for-
mer. The psoroptic form may spread
all over the body, if treatment is ne-
slected, -but this {s unusual. The
biting of the parasite gives rise to
an itchy condition of the skin, which
causes the animal ~to rub itself
against fixed objects, with the result
that the hair over the affected Parts
gets ‘rubbed off. On examining the
skin a considerable amount of scurf
/may be seey, red and yellow blood
/Scabs appear on the surface and
‘there may be even abrasions, if the
animal has. been rubbing against
rough objects. If the psoroptic form
should spread over the body, the
patient may waste away and become
greatly reduced in condition.
In cases of this kind, however, it
will often be found that the wasting
fs due to some serfous internal
trouble,such as tuberculosis, which
reduces the animal's natural power
of resistance to the less serfous dis-
case. ,
It has not infrequently been ob-
served that cows appear to become
cured spontaneously when turned
out to grass in the spring. This
usually means, however, that under
open-air conditions the parasites do
not increase at the same Tate, hence
the active symptoms are merely less
marked. In the fall, when the ani-
mals are again stabled, the parasites
which has persisted ‘resume their
activity and this may lead to the
erroneous belief that re-infection
has taken place.
Preventlon—The affected parts on
the animal's skin should be softencd
by washing with soap and warm
water. After this has been done, the
parts should be dressed with one of
the common mange dressings, such
as spirit of tar ofl and sulphur. The
dressings shopld be applied twice or
even three times at intervals of ten
days. For the serious and rebellious
cases above mentioned veterinary ad-
vice should be sought. The litter
from an Infected animal should be
removed each time after dressing
and, the flooring and wood ,or other
fittings should be sprayed with a five
per cent. solution of carbolic acid in
water.—W: R. Gilbert, Alberta, Can,
Insect Pests Easily Willed.
Destroying the winter homes is a
most important detail tn the control
of our worst insect pests, many of
which are easily attacked then,
whereas in the active season they are
hard to reach.
All insects pass through three or
four stages in their’ development
from the egg to maturity, and differ-
ent insects pass the winter in diffor-
ent stages of etistence; the grass-
hopper’ in the egg, the cutworm as
a larva, the corn ear-worm as a
pupa, and the white srub as a partly
hardened May beetle. Late fall
spading or plowing is the best meth-
od of controlling all these, though it
may not be advisable for other rea
sons, yet where these four pests are
very troublesome, it will usually be
found the best method of extermi-
nating them. -
The eggs of the grasshoppers are
laid just under the surface of the
soil, and get so deeply buried that
they either fall to hatch, or the
young are unable to emerge the next
spring.
| In the fall the eutworms enter-the
soll to the depth of three or four
inches, where they hollow out small
oval cells, and in which they remain
until the next spring. By breaking
up these cells and throwing out the
worms to the.influence of the change-
able weather conditions after they
have commenced hibernating, many
of them are destroyed.
In the same way the corn ears
worms, which are such nuisances
upon the tips of the ears of sugar
corn; enter the soil in the fall, and
form ceils similar to those of the cnt-
worms, in witich they transform to
the’ pupa. stage. The pupae are
easily killed by exposure to the
weather, whieh {s brought about by
breaking up the cells in the dig-
ging.
+ The white ara is a pest of almost
every garden crdp, and very difficult
to handle when its depredations are
at their worst. The grub requires at
least two seasons to become full
srown, when it transforms to a pupa,
and later to a beetle, the well-known
May beetle or Jung bug, which files
in the lights and buzzes around the
ceilings of rooms during the warm
evenings of May and June. The bee-
tles do not emerge from the, soil un-
til the folowing spring, existing dur-
ing the winter in the earthen cells in
a partially hardened condition, and
without the brown color which ex-
posure to daylight, soon/gives, them.
Ingthis conditfon they arg pecullarly
helpless, and if disturbed in late fall
are readfly killed. .
‘Wireworms, whick are so bother-
some by eating into seed corn, and
necesitating replanting, may be at-
tacked similarly. -

A FAMOUS WOMAN—COUNTESS CARLISLE.
couMbess caruisgit. =~
New World Head of the Women’s
Temperance Union.
To be known as Mrs. Rosalind Car-
Usle, instead of “My Lady,” is the de-
sire cf the democratic Countess of
Carlisle, who has recently been elect-
ed World W. C. T. U. President. Only
the united protests and appeals of her
entire family and cohsideration for
their wishes have kept her from, Jong
ago, abrogating the titles which are
hers by both birth and marriage. The
Countess was Lady Rosalind Frances
Stanley, youngest daughter of Baron
Stanley, of Adderley, before her mar-
riage to the Earl of Carlisic, forty
Years ago. She has always been sim-
ple and unaffected in manner and
style and the-soul of kindliness and
charity; She goes about among her
tenants much as the late Queen Vic-
torla did when on her visits to her
favorite home, at Balmoral Castle,
Scotland. The people are all known
to her by name and all respect and
love her.
The cares of a large ‘family and.

THE Senate Committee is investigating the Brownsville affair. The evidence so far is in favor of the soldiers.
SEVERAL, moving picture places have dotted the city, and each one of them have a "jim crow" department. Stay away from these-places.
The Equal Rights Convention was held in Macon during the week. It was presided over by Rev. W. J. White D. D., of the Georgia Baptist. It was a representative gathering.
From the annual report of the health officer the great difference in the death rate of the white and colored people was noted and sufficient to cause us all to think and act in a way to decrease it among our people.
TUESDAY was Lincoln's birthday. This day should be more generally observed by our people. We should not so soon forget this great liberator.
KEEP away from separate bar rooms. If you have to visit any at all don't be jim crowed Our women should not purchase groceries from these stores having such a division.
Possibly Frederick Donglass did as much as any of the abolishionists in the spreading of the sentiment that caused the freedom of the slaves. His birthday was Thursday, two days after that of the great emancipator.
YEARS ago it was seldom that a white man, especially of any standing, was brought to the courts and convicted of crimes in this section, but the sentiment in this respect is changing and it is not infrequent that our able and courageous Judge of the Superior Court sentence this class of criminals and deal with them less tenderly than his predecessors. In Thursday's News alone several cases were reported of white men convicted and sentenced for offences. J. B. Goodman was sent to the penitentiary for larceny after trust, John E. Myrick, a lawyer was fined for delaying court proceedings and a white doctor was sent to the chain gang for performing a criminal operation. Let this be kept up and the ratio of crime will be less in favor of our people.
Lincoln Memorial Service Lincoln memorial exercises were held by the students of Beach Institute and the First Congregational Sunday School, on Sunday night last at the First Congregational church There was a large audience in attendance. The program as published in THE TRIBUNE last week, was carried out in a manner pleasing to those who heard it. The remarks by Rev Cash, the address of Prof. MoIntosh and that of Prof Hurd were pregnant with thoughts of Lincoln and which would be helpful if inculcated by those present especially the younger ones The solo by Miss Ruth Williams, and the solo-anthem by Miss Adra Spencer and the students of the Beach were melodious, and Miss Henrietta C. Houstoun captivated her hearers with her sweet solo. "America" by the congregation, was inspiring.
Exercises similar to the above were held all over the country where the American Missionary Association holds forth.

The first quarterly Conference for this year was held last Sunday at Branigan Chapel M. E. Church. and Elder James Jackson of Savannah preached a noble sermon. Rev. A. Hodge filled his appointment at Bethel and had a good crowd and preached a noble sermon. Mr. and Mrs. Jonas Loe of Blitch were visitors at Rev. and Mrs. W. Hodges on last Sunday and enjoyed their visit very much. The many friends of Mr. Sam Lee and Miss Lula L. McCollough wish them much joy in their new life which they entered on last Thursday at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jonas Les the many friends of Miss Roxie Hodges
are glad to know that she is up and out again and look well. She soon make her return to Dorchester Academy at Thebes. The farmers are busy preparing their farms.
Colored Municipality.
Georgia's only colored municipality, Burroughs, recently held an election with the following result: Mayor, J. O. Legree, Alderman, F. Watson, Jacob Shellman, Blake Shephard, Silas Ancrum and Will Sherod. Mayor Legree has served several terms and in fact was the first Mayor of this town.
Our Land and Our Lincoln
A beautiful land lay sleeping,
Under the smiling sky;
Fair land, in God's own keeping,
Broad plains, and mountains high.
Three thousand miles from sea to sea,
An empire's vast domain;
Grass covered plains, and forest tree,
Oceans of waving grain
Broad lakes and mighty rivers grand;
Mines filled with precious ore;
Foot hills built up of golden sand;
Of wealth, a boundless store.
A northland vigorous and strong
In earnest men and toil;
A southland filled with cheery song,
King Cotton's favored soil.
O'er the northland, shone the light
Of freedom's clear cut ray;
But o'er the south, a dimming blight
Of human bondage lay.
Mid southern mountains and fragrant pines
Of humble parents born,
Come one whose life refugient shines,
Like rising sun of morn.
A chosen child of God was he,
Ordained by Heaven above,
To set four million captives free
And thus proclaim God's love.
Through childhood, youth, to man-
hood's prime,
From right, he ne'er would swerve,
His aim, through every trying time,
To think, to work, serve.
"Abe Lincoln" was the homely name
They called this lowly lad,
"Abe Lincoln" still, when world wide
fame
Had made a nation glad.
When the great Union that he loved,
Was rent by mortal strain,
He, by God's help, her armies moved,
And closed the rent again.
With deeds, and words of counsel wise,
By thought and speech and pen,
He ever sought with glad emprise,
To right the wrongs of men.
May Lincoln's spirit ever brood
Over this land of ours,
An angel ministry of good,
A guide to ruling powers.
Oh beautiful land still sleeping
Under the smiling sky,
Rest still, in our God's own keeping,
And know that He is nigh.

Second Baptist Church.
Progress, peace and unity abound in our midst. The deacons are pushing their club work to a final finish, for the rally to-morrow. Everybody invited to worship with us, and help us to-morrow.

The.Baptist Ministers' Union met on Monday last. Devotional exercises conducted by Rey. W. M. Barron. Sermonic Reports as follows: Rey. W. M.
true and, divining way," Rev. W. A Daughtry, Marti 17:4, "It is, God's Barron, Jno. 14:6, subject "Jesus, the throne." Rev. J. H. May, Ex. 41:3, subject, "Crossing the Red Sea." Rev. N. H. Whitmire, Phil. 4:16, subject "God supplies the need of his church through Christ." Rev. B. Malet, Isa. 6:21, subject, "Quench not the spirit." Rev. H. L. Haywood, Zech. 3:19, subject "The seven eyed stone." The meeting was very interesting and enjoyed by all the brethren.
The Evangelical Ministerial Union met Tuesday morning at St. Philip A. M. E. Church with Dr. J. A. Lindsay in the chair. Rev. J. S. Jenkins who is always on time led devotions. The Secretary called the roll and read minutes of last meeting. The large attendance showed that the brethren were gaining strength from the Union. Rev. James Jackson gave a splendid outline of his Sunday sermon and received flattering comments from all the brethren on his evident biblical information and preaching ability. The paper of Rev. R. V. Branch on "Should every sermon have for its object the saving of souls" was conclusive and clear cut. The Union was unanimous almost in the conclusion reached by the reader. The paper "Grievances and authority of the Scriptures" by Rev. J. C. Callegh was a strongly prepared document showing both scholarship and broad reading for the reader. This paper brought out the forces to the battle-field and etymological information stood in our midst until "Webster," "Wooster" "Buck" and the other great-makers crossed swords for satisfaction. Rev. R. V. Branch, B. S. Hannah, C. D. Johnson, J. S. Jenkins; J. Jackson, R. M. S. Taylor, E. Lowery, and that other discipline tried to harmonize the conflicting elements. Rev. W. H. Holmes was present and expressed great satisfaction in the Union. If you want to see the "boys" in their glory come to the Union. Rev. W. L. Cash being sick was missed by the Union. Come to the next meeting. You will get information. The progressive minister will be on hand.
A Memorial Tribute
To Mrs. FRANCES McHARDY,
By Mrs. RACHAEL MOORE.
At the command of the Almighty Creator all must obey, at the call of the Almighty Creator all must come. Man's time on this beautiful earth is but a short while, but in the land of that sweet eternal life, peace, and ever lasting happiness is always.
God, the kind and everlasting ruler called from our m'dst one whose life we thought to have been long upon this earth, but in sight of Him who giveth and taketh was short, but where He commanded this dear old loving soul to ever dwell is that sweet eternal life, peace and everlasting happiness. There from the life that our beloved one is known to have lived by her many friends, is nothing to be doubted, but that she has gone there to dwell.
Mrs. McHardy was one who could and who did always make and maintain a host of friends. Just a few words having passed and friends were made and hard to be broken. She was a true and loving wife, a devoted mother, a friend to the friendless, a comfortter to those in distress and an ever willing christian church worker. She was as devoted to her dear husband and as loving and true to him at the end of the fifty-seven years as she was at the beginning. During the last moments of her life, she did all that her power and strength would allow her to console and make her husband comfortable. God in His infinite mercy was so kind to let them spend their fifty-seventh anniversary together Jan 29th and at 5 o'clock the next morning, she slept away at the command of the Almighty Greater, and departed this life to join those who have crossed that great river and now stand among the angels of purity, in that sweet eternal life, peace and happiness. She departed this life in her 79th, year. Elopened in years, and fully prepared for another state of existence, she passed on now to enjoy the reward of a life well spent on earth
She has been a true and faithful member of the church for 45 years with not a single blur against her name. She having joined the Second African Baptist Church in 1862, and remained there until her death. Her kind and Christian ways entailed a great many burdensome hearts during her days to seek her advice and that, and whatever else she could do she did it with the best of will. "As she lived she died." With that firm foundation of the salants of the Lord, and faith in His excellent word, her soul that on Jesus had leaned for repose. That soul—though hell should endeavor to shake, was strengthened and caused her to walk through the valley of the shadow of death without fear, and was upheld by the grace of the Omnipotent hand across the great river to spend a blest eternity with Saylour, Brother and Friend and to live triumphant in His grace.

NO RELIEF FROM ECZEMA
For Over Two Years—Patent Medicines, Quack Cures, and Even Doctors Fall—Cuticura Succeeds.
"I was very badly afflicted with eczema for more than two years. The parts affected were my limbs below the knees. I tried all the physicians in the town and some in the surrounding towns, and I also tried all the patent remedies that I heard of, besides all the cures advised by old women and quacks, and found no relief whatever until I commenced using the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent. In the Cuticura Remedies I found immediate relief and was soon sound and well. C. V. Beltz, Tippezano, Ind., Nov. 15, 1003."

Of Interest to Women
Every woman naturally should be healthy and strong, but a great many women, unfortunately, are not, owing to the unnatural condition of the lives we have been living in, a tired condition are prevalent amongst the women of to-day, and to relieve these conditions women rush to the druggists for a bottle of some preparation supposed to be a remedy, and nobody knows what. If they would just get a box of Braudreth's Pills, and take them regularly every night for 3 time, all their trouble would disappear, as these remedies are not a system. The same, dose has the same effect, no matter how long they are used.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use for over a century and are sold in every drug and medicine store, plain or sugar-coated.

POPUEAR SCIENCE
It is now possible to see and hear plants grow. In the apparatus of two Germans the growing plant is connected with a disk having in its centre an indicator which moves visibly and regularly, and this movement, magnified fifty times over a scale, shows the progress in growth.
Magnet windings of uninsulated wire are said to have proved feasible by the use of aluminum wire, the natural oxide upon which forms an effective insulation for moderate voltages. For over 200 volts, paper wound wet between the layers is effective, and for higher potentials, extra oxidation has been secured by dipping in a chemical bath.
It is reported from Paris that Professor, Behring has discovered a new method of sterilizing milk without boiling it or destroying any of its essential principles. The method is based on the powerful qualities of German perphydrol, simply oxygenated. One gram per litre of this substance is sufficient to destroy all noxious germs. Mjlk thus sterilized can be kept a long time.
According to recent investigations, the peculiar flavor that pleases smokers is largely due to the activity of certain bacteria while the tobacco is undergoing the fermentation stage of curing. Dr. Sucshisland, a German scientist, has cultivated germs taken from fine Cuban tobacco while fermenting and introduced them into inferior varieties of German tobacco. When the latter was cured connoisseurs could not distinguish it from the best Cuban brands.
Borings 1000 feet deep in New Orleans have encountered nothing more solid than mud, sand and a little thin clay; hence the problem of making safe foundations for the pliers of a gigantic railroad bridge which is soon to be built across the Mississippi near the city is a hard one for engineering science. The pliers will rest on timber caissons, each measuring over sixty feet by 126 and 140 feet high. The bottoms of these caissons will be 170 feet below the surface of the river.
"MOMENTUM IN VARIATION."
Explanation of Growth of Useless Animal Organs.
In many animals there are certain organs which, useful in their earlier stages, have apparently been so greatly developed as to become rather hindrances. The horns of certain deer, for example, useful as weapons of defense when smaller, have become so large as rather to handicap the animals in the struggle for life. The huge overgrown teeth, or tusks, of certain of the borr family may be cited as further examples. These are sometimes explained as organs which have been more useful in their present state under former conditions, and which have persisted through heredity. In the American Naturalist, however, F. F. B. Loomis brings forward another explanation. He thinks the growth of such organs is due to what he calls "momentum in variation." As a variation proceeds in a certain direction it acquires, like a body moving under the action of gravity, a momentum which may carry it past the stage of greatest utility. This factor in evolution, Mr. Loomis thinks, has not been assigned the importance it deserves.
Other evolutionists, however, have suggested that when an animal or plant has once started to vary in a given direction, it acquires a tendency to go on varying in that direction. And this, although the word momentum is not used, agrees with the above theory.
An Unexpected 'Bite.
One of the queerest experiences in catching trout that any man ever had was that at Moosehead Lake by an Attleboro sportsman named Williams. He was standing on the apron of the dnm at Wilson's fishing in the quick water below, and had met with fair success. Near the shore, on his right hand, in a little eddy, he noticed a barrel lying on its side in several feet of water. He wondered what it was there for, and was so curious that he left his fishing and went down to examine. He found that it was an old molasses barrel, and was lying so that he could see the bunghole.
Of course, the barrel was full of water, and the man had no idea there was a fish inside of it, but just for curiosity he dropped his hook through the hole, and no sooner had it landed there than the water was boiling; and the fisherman knew he had a trout on the other end. He played him until the fish was tired, and when he came to land him he could not get him through the hole. He secured a saw and sawed a piece out of the top of the barrel near the hole. The fish came out. It weighed three pounds, and was one of the handsomest squaretails caught in that section this year.
One of the guides said that the trout must have gone into the barrel when small, and had lived on bugs and worms which had taken up their abode inside.—Maine Sportsman.

"Miss Washington is about seventeen. She has not a handsome Face, but is neat in her Dress, of an agreeable Size & well proportioned and has an easy winning Behaviour. She is not forward to begin a conversation, yet when spoken to she is extremely affable, without assuming any Girlish affectation-or pretending to he overcharge'd with Wit; She plays well on the Harpsichord & Spinet; understands the principles of Musick, & therefore performs her Tunes in perfect time, a Neglect of which always makes musick intolerable, but it is a fault almost universal among young Ladies in the practice; she sings likewise to her instrument, has a strong full voice and a well-judging Ear; but most of the Virginia Girls think it Labour quite sufficient to thump the Keps of a Harpsichord into the air of a time mechanically, & think it would be Slavery to submit to the Drudgery of acquiring Vocal Musick."

GUIDES CHILDREN
Experience and a Mother's Love Make Advice Valuable.
An Ills. mother writes about feeding children:
"If mothers would use Grape-Nuts more for their little ones there would be less need for medicines and fewer doctor bills.
"If those suffering from indigestion and stomach troubles would live on Grape-Nuts, toast and good milk for a short period they would experience more than they otherwise would believe.
"Our children have all learned to know the benefit of Grape-Nuts as an appetizing, strengthening food. It is every evening, with few variations, like this: 'Mama, let's have toast and Grape-Nuts for breakfast; or, let's have eggs and Grape-Nuts' — never forgetting the latter.
"One of our boys in school and 15 years of age repeatedly tells me his mind is so much brighter and in every way he feels so much better after having Grape-Nuts as a part if not all his breakfast."

PRICE OF SUFFRAGE.
Committee Asked Enthusiastic Woman to Remit.
Mrs. Anna Bagley, who is visiting in this city, was once an enthusiastic woman suffragist in Wyoming. Her enthusiasm in the cause of her downtrodden sisters has waned almost to the vanishing point. She cast just one vote—"for Theodore Roosevelt for President," she says in the pride of her heart—and it came near costing her $75. She declares it isn't worth the money.
Wyoming, it must be remembered, is in the vanguard of American States in the march toward the universal franchise. In that Commonwealth a woman is every bit as good as a man, or better, and, moreover, she can prove it. She may not be able to chase a jackrabbit or coyote through the sage-brush quite so fast as her buckskinned lord, or cut such fancy figures with a bratat at a "round-up," but when it comes to wielding the ballot she will admit no inferiority.
Mrs. Bagley, while holding a position under the State Government in Cheyenne, exercised her right of suffrage with due solemnity. Soon afterward she moved to Great Falls, Mont., where the fact that she had once voted, mentioned casually during some small talk, became known among her friends. Much to her surprise, she became a heroine and had thrust upon her honors she had not counted on. The women of her immediate circle made much of one who enjoyed the full political rights thus far denied them, and at a little dinner she attended she found herself ostensibly labelled, "Montana's Only Woman Voter." There it was on her menu card in letters so big and bold that there was none so blind she could not bear witness to the fame of this guest. She bore her distinction modestly—somewhat diffidently, in fact.
After the lapse of a year or so Mrs. Bagley had called to her attention the fact that another election was about to be held in Wyoming, and the State—with a big "S"—needed her. Feeling sure of her party loyalty, the managers of the campaign wrote to her, offering her transportation if she wished to return and cast her ballot. This was declined with thanks, and she resigned herself to life in Montana, where the electoral sovereignty of mere man is absolute and undivided. But she continued to be an earnest believer in woman's rights until—until she was rudely awakened to the fact that her suffrage idol had feet, not of clay but of mud. The blow was delivered in this wise: Mrs. Bagley received from the head of the Wyoming Campaign Committee a letter reading something like this:
"Dear Madam—We beg to call your attention to the fact that a campaign is in progress in this State in which is involved not only the vary life of the party but the whole cause of good government, if not the safety of the Nation itself. We find ourselves pinched for funds with which to pay necessary campaign expenses and an allotment of the amount necessary has been made among those most interested in the success of the party. Your share has been fixed at $75. Please remit by check or money order."
Mrs. Bagley rubbed her eyes, and the beautiful dream of the political equality of the sexes vanished.—Chicago Record-Herald.
For Those Who Would Be Strong.
Everybody seeks health nowadays, although all are not successful in finding it. At the same time, the amount of care which most of us take must surely have some effect on the longevity of the race, and certainly the average age does seem to be increasing.
The following rules issued by the New York Board of Health for the guidance of consumptives might, very well be followed as nearly as possible by all of us:
Never sleep or stay in a close room.
When indoors remain in the sunniest and best ventilated room—one, if possible, which has no carpet.
Have at least one window open in your bedroom.
Have a room to yourself when possible, and at any rate have your own bed.
Go to bed early and sleep at least eight hours.
Avoid draughts, dampness, dust and smoke.
Keep your feet warm and dry.
Don't wear a chest protector.
If you have to work, take every chance to rest that you can.
Avoid eating when mentally or bodily tired, or when in a state of nervous excitement.
Eat plenty of good and wholesome food.—Washington Star.
Umbrellas in Bed.
Mr. Barnard, M. P., has conducted an inquiry, on behalf of the Herts County Council at King's Langley into the housing question. It was stated that at Chipperfield it took a man two years to find a house, and a woman had 'to walk eight miles to her work because, she, could, not, get a lodging nearer. In another, case umbrellas had to, he held up in bed when it rained, and young people could not marry because there was nowhere for them to live.—London-Chronlele.
He Was Right.
"See here," leekly complained the victim, after the accident, "I thought you said, it was perfectly safe to go up in that old-elevator?" "Well," replied the elevator man, "so it was safe to go up; you see, the dangerous part of it was comin' down."—Philadelphia Press.
He—Do you believe in a uniform divorce law?
She-Yes, I'm getting awfully tired of the way things are mixed up at present. Whenever I go from New York to Connecticut I have to go to my linen remarked. It's a fully stitched noyling to be Mrs. Brown in one Stitch and Mrs. Smith in another. Of course it wouldn't be so bad if men's names all began with the same; letter—Oak Cargo Record-Herald.
The Modesty of, Women
Naturally makes them shrink from the indelicate questions, the obsouble examinations, and unpleasant local treatments; which some physiologists consider essential in the treatment of diseases of women. Yet, if help can be had, it is better to submit to this ordeal than let the disease grow and spread. The trouble is that so often the woman undergoes all the annoyance and shame for nothing. Thousands of women who have been cured by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription have been treated with the examinations which displease with the examinations and local treatments. There is no other medicine so sure and safe for delicate women as "Favorite Prescription." It cures debilitating drains, irregularity and female weakness. It always helps. It almost always cures. It is strictly non-alcoholic, non-secret, all its ingredients being printed on its bottle-wrapper; contains no deleterious or habit-forming drugs, and every native medicinal root entering into its composition has the full endorsement of those most ominent in the several schools of medical practice. Some of these numerous and strongest of professional endorsements of its ingredients have been tested and around the bottle, also in a booklet mailed free on request, by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y. These professional endorsements should have far more weight than any amount of the ordinary lay, or non-professional testimonials.
The most intelligent women now-a-days insist on knowing what they take as medicine instead of opening their mouths like a lot of young birds and gulping down whatever is offered them. "Favorite Proscription" is of known composition. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. Dr. Pleura's Medical Advisor is sent free on receipt of stamps to pay expense of mailing out.

dwell wholly within the Christ. The
call is for men and for women who
will be clothed upon with Jesus
Christ—not merely once: but contin-
ually—unto the attainment of the
perfect likeness of our Lord.
Now the text brings us face to face
—do we think a moment—with these
two separate and distinct truths. The
first is that ft is the duty of every
maz! to enter Into the Christ life.
‘The second is that having entcred
into’ that life we must progress to-
ward Christlikeness. That is to ay,
‘we must grow continually toward
‘epiritual maturity and toward the
perfectness of character which should
accept the Lord as Saviour, for His
power to save 1s a fact proven and
-attested by a long line of human ex-
Perlence. We Christians ought to
grow into new and richer ‘graces, for
‘thus only do we evidence our love for
“that Master whom we serve.
‘The duty which we have predicated
sto be obligatory upon every man is
“not.Jess a need. The man who neg-
lect’ to obey the call of Christ for
entire yielding of self up to God,
destroys for himself the greatest
blessing which, in life, may be at-
tained, ahd which God proffers to
human kind. Only as we accept the
Christ as our Saviour ‘and our Friend
are we surest of life eternal and of
fellowship with’ the Father here.
Convinced of the awfulness of our
own sin, as every normal, right-
minded man must be, it Ss eléarly as
much a necessity as an obligation for
"each of us to seek and to sieze that
‘certain cleansing from the stains of
‘amvevil life which God has sent us
‘through His Son, our Elder Brother.
‘Desiring, as we al) do, the highest
happiness for self, it is hard to un-
_detstand why men refuse the Gos-
pel. Hoping, as each of us should
‘hope, for the accomplishment of the
greatest usefulness in the world, it is
dificilt to belleve that men can, de-
Uberately and willfully, disdain to
accept that Heaven-born power which
can'make us most worth while. Pur-

Christ, the obligation of the Chris-

by Christ is just as real. We must
ever be renewing that spiritual life
‘with which the Christ in our first
acceptance of Him hath clothed us.

ly to put on Jesus Christ. Thus only
can we become the children of God
whom we should be—for tle fullness
of the Christ is pertéctton,
And now that we have considered
thus briefly the reasons why all men
should serve God and all Christians
should be’re-clothed day by’day with
Christ, let us also reflect what is tho
‘nature of this life wherewith we are
‘clothed by Christ. What does the
‘apostle mean when he urges us to
put on Jesus? What sort of men
WHI we be? ‘
‘Well, to be sure the first aiswer
will be that the mature of that spir-
ftual life wherewith we are to be re-
clothed or clothed upon, as tho case
may be, is essentially Christly. The
apostle advises us to be Christiiite
when he points us to Jesus. Neces-
sarily and logleally, therefore, wa will
be meg ‘who act and live like Jesus
Christ.’ The hymn which runs, “Jesus
Christ Is my all and in all,” states the
situation perfectly. Self fs glorified
through the losing of self in the
Saviour. .
To put on Jesus Christ and to, bo
clothed upon by Him fs to be saved,
to grow from grace unto grace, to be
one of that strong, full-blooded, sanc-
tified host who, under God, lve and
preach the Christ life. You will no~
tice I say lve and preach, for the
only preaching that is of value or
that, in the long run, will count for
anything very much, is the preaching
that flows rich and full and free out
of a life that ts consistent, that rings
true; out of a heart rich with experi-
ence of the glorious joys and possibil-
ities of the Ife within Jesus. And
as with the preaching, so also with
all the means by which God’s Gospel
is mediated to men. The only testi-
mony which secures results is that
which springs from a trusted source.
The only word which will strike home
is that which has behind it a convic-
tlon and an assurance that Is born of
experimental ‘xaowledge. To preach
Christ with power we must be 2<-
counted sincere and sure.
The Christ man will be a strong
man. That is to say, ho will be fall
of force. He 'may be warped and
drawn physically, as one mighty mes-
senger of God whom I know, but his
heart is pure, and his mind is clean,
and his soul looks out toward Heaven
through windows thatare not dimmed
by sin. ~
The man who fs clothed by and
with Jesus fs a full-blooded man,
His heart beats powerfully, his eye
is clear, his head works quick,
his hand is ready and his step
is firm mgen sin “is to be met
and battled to the death. Without
a quiver, 2 quaver, or even the slight-

quai! to force the unjust combat. He,
may refuse to pick a quarrel merely
in order to despoil a people. But
there, there where the fight is hottest
and sin fs strongestentrenched; there
where the odds are against him and
it seems his*God must fail; there, on
the Lord’s own side, will yo3: find
the man who {s clothed upon with’
Christ.
But, above all, the man who puts
on Christ continually {s sanctified.
Ho is being perfected in holiness,
He is in process of attainment in
srowth in godliness. Sanctification is
not only perfectness, but the process
and way to holiness entire. The aim
of the man wke {s serving 1s for the
goal. His hand is ever in the hand
of God. Hoe never lets policy give the
sidetrack to principle. With him
truth has the rightsof way.and the
clear road always. His motives are
above suspicion. If he falls in the
race he is still undaunted. For kim,
to be well up at the end, is ambition’s
hope. To keep the faith is his en-
deavor. “For Christ and the world”
is his motto.
Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ
and be ye clothed progressively with
Him. Thus shall ye learn the high-
est service, thus shall ye enter inte
knowledge of the finest life.
Nourishing the Soul,
‘Why should not everybody, espe-
cially every church member, belong
to the Sunday-school? asks the editor
of the Observer. Surely no one can
lay“claim to sufficient knowledge of
the Bible. Even the most scholarly
men of the age are constantly study-
ing the Old Book, and are ever find-
ing something new in it, In spite of
tho sensation produced by recent
works of fiction, the Bivlo {s more
discussed to-day than any other book,
and the {interest ts of tho intensest
kind, Such a book ought to be stud-
ied regularly by every person. We
are convinced that by joining the
Sunday-school and niaking use of the
best helps in Bible study, tho best
results can be secured. Good helps
are cheap, for one thing. Then the
study of certain portions of the Bible
every week will‘tend to regular and
systematic habits of nourishing the
soul with the very food that It most
needs.—Ram’s Horn,
‘Make Us Strong in’ ‘Trial.
‘We remember the temptations that
are before us, when. passion’ from
within’ is ‘allied with opportunity
{roni without, ‘and that we have ‘so
often therein’ gone -astray, and we
pray Thee, that the spirit of religion
may bo s6 strous<within, us, that. IF
shall enable us fo overcome evil, nnd
prove ourselves stronger for every
trial Amen.—Theodore ‘Parker.

lence, but chiefly, I think; from being”

ing their ways and worgds.—S. 2

St was thought that a child could

whatisknown ae“afrog’s heart”—a
hoart-with singla ventricle to perform
the double purpose of propelling the
pure bidod throughout the nystem
and sending the impure ‘blood ¢o the
Jungs for purification, In the normal
being these two operations are per
formed by separate ventricles. In the
course of the post-morten examina
tion of a man about thirty-five years
old whc-had suffered from heart .dis.
ease, in one of the Manchester hos.
pitals, it was found that he had lived

Leprosy Patient Nurses Children.
An’ evening contemporary, in ity
Issue of Monday, denottuced the auth-
oritles of the Lazaretto for allowing
@ patient smitten with leprosy to act
as assistant nurse in the children's
ward. Given the contagious nature
of the awful disease named,,it seems
increditable that under the careful
superintendence of the medical of
ficers of the institution such an ir-
regularity could exist. The interest
of the matter les in the bare an-
nouncemant;'which shows how quickly
the elty Erows accustomed to’ eircum-
stances. If, three months ago, any
ono dared to zay that there was such
a thing as leprosy anywhere within
the municipal mits, the whole weight
of public opinion would have been
discharged upon tho luckless wight,
And now leprosy in one form or an-
other is to be met With daily in the
metropolitan press. -—- Buenos Ayres

and the orily hope they offered was an operation, for an abscess of
