VOL. XXII. PEOPLE'S CASH FREELY SPENT Fifty-Ninth Congress, Which Adjourned Monday. PASSED THE BILLION MARK Short Summary of the Most Important Legislation Enacted During the Short Session. The fifty-ninth congress, which expired on Monday, at noon, has been most liberal in the matter of appropriations. The budget for the expenses of the government for the fiscal year 1908 is in excess of $1,000,000,000. The river and harbor bill alone provides for an expenditure of $830,000,000, and this work will probably come closer to the people at large and have a more beneficial effect upon business conditions generally than any other government enterprise unless it be the postal service The appropriation bill also provides for the construction of two new battleships at an expense of about $10,000,600. It includes a, raise of salaries for cabinet officers, the vice president, the speaker of the house, senators and representatives. It also grants an increase to ambassadors, ministers and consuls. It carries a loan of one million dollars for the Jamestown exposition and an appropriation for the Alaska-Yukon exposition. It grants more pay to the rural free delivery carriers and increased remuneration to postal clerks. The railroads, the packing houses, the express companies, the high tariff interests and the protectionists have little to regret as the result of bills enacted by congress the past few months. Not only were bills put through favorable to the "interests," but remedial legislation in the interest of the people and urged upon congress by the president, were not acted upon. The epitaph over this congress might be: "I have done much that I should not have done, and I have left undone those things I should have done." In the immigration bill and in the sixteen-hour bill, for the protection of railway employees, has this freak of legislation been resorted to by the republicans to embarrass and aound the minority. In its final analysis it means that five or six or seven members of a conference committee practically assume the power of legislating in place of the senate and house of representatives. An important feature of the present session has been the failure to pass any extensive legislation affecting the railroads. The LaFollette bill, providing for a reduction of $7,000,000 per annum in the payment to railroads for carrying the mail, was introduced in the senate as an amendment to the postal appropriations bill. It was defeated in the house, and after a bitter struggle in the conference committee was reduced about $4,000,000 annually. Senator Aldrich attempted to kill the denatured alcohol bill, but enough republicans joined with the democrats to reserve to the farmers the right to operate their own stills for the manufacture of denatured alcohol for domestic use. Despite the demands from all sections of the country for tariff revision, there will be no effort at revision, it has been definitely decided, until after the next presidential election. Among the measures which have passed, it might be mentioned in recapitulation, are those prohibiting campaign contributions from corporations, the exclusion of Japanese cooie labor, granting the government the right of appeal in criminal cases under certain conditions, an investigation into woman and child labor and the ratification of the Santo Domingo and Algeciras treaties. TRIP TO THE CANAL ZONE Being Arragged by Business Men of South and Southwest. Secretary Shannon of the Nashville, Tenn., board of trale, is daily in receipt of letters asking information regarding the proposed-trip to Panama from various points in the south and southwest and as far west as Duluth, Minn. Every indication points to a complete success of the movement. It is the present intention to call from New Orleans about the first of April. Savannah Tribune. LIGHT ON QUEER DEAL Handed Contractor Oliver is Sought of President Roosevelt by Senator Tillman. A resolution was presented in the senate Saturday by Senator Tillman calling on the president to send to the senate, "If in his judgment not incompatable with the public interest, all papers of information in his possession in regard to the proposed letting of the contract for the construction of the Panama canal, which was bid for by W. J. Oliver, and others, and to state the existing status." In a speech supporting the resolution Mr. Tillman said the whole country wanted the canal constructed with as little scandal as possible. "There have been some remarkable occurrences in connection with this work," he continued. Reference was then made to the resignation of Mr. Wallace, who, he said, was berated and abused by the secretary of war. "Then came the information that Chairman Shouts was retaining his railroad business; that the canal work was insufficient to occupy his entire time, and then the statement that he was going cut. "And then came Mr. Stevens' resignation. Now comes the matter of Mr. Oliver's bid for the work." Mr. Oliver, he said, was an efficient and able contractor and his bid was the lowest. "But at once hocus pocus came into the game. As I understand it Mr. Oliver has complied with every requirement. I may be a little suspicious, but there has appeared to me a disposition to let in the bidders who were a little too greedy in their first bids. Now Oliver has disappeared and the army engineers are said to be put on the job. I want a little information," concluded Mr. Tillman. Senator Carmack said he had prepared an identical resolution to that introduced by Mr. Tillman. It seems to him that Mr. Oliver had received very bad treatment. He had spent $30,000 or $40,000 of his own money in complying with the requirements of the government and had made the lowest bid. Because of objection the resolution went over for future action under the rules. PROBING OF COITON EXCHANGES To Be Started at Once by Department of Commerce and Labor. A Washington dispatch says: In accordance with the house resolution providing for an investigation of the business methods of cotton exchanges dealing in futures, the bureau of corporations of the department of commerce and labor will begin a general inquiry into cotton dealing immediately. Representative Livingston, of Georgia, who has been active for months in the agitation for reformation in the methods of cotton exchanges, said that he expects to appear before the bureau and present much data which he has collected on the methods of cotton dealers. The department has been supplied by Mr. Livingston with the names of many witnesses whom he wishes to have called, and additional lists will be furnished by representatives of the cotton exchanges and other persons interested in the investigation. As the resolution was amended by the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce it does not provide for an investigation of any particular exchange, but is believed by members of congress interested in the matter to be broad enough to extend the inquiry to the New York, New Orleans and Memphis cotton exchanges. Carworkers of Coast Line Strike. The car inspectors and car workers of the second and third divisions of the Atlantic Coast Line went out on a strike Saturday morning in Waycross, Ga. The men recently asked for a 25 per cent increase, which was declined. A NEED OF MORE WARSHIPS To Protect American Interests in Central American War Zone. Developments in the war in Central America, with the indications that at least four of the republics have become involved, has led the state and navy department officials to consider the expediency of increasing the American naval force in those waters and it is probable that within a few days several other ships will be ordered to reinforce the Marletta and Chicago in protecting American interests there. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. MARCH 9. 1907. RUSSIAN DOUMA IS ASSEMBLED People's Representatives Meet for Second Session at Capital. IS FOLLOWED BY RIOTING Enormous Crowds of Proletariat and Students Make Revolutionary Demonstrations But are Curbed. The opening in St. Petersburg Tuesday of the duma, or the lower house of the Russian parliament, although in itself devoid of interest, was made the occasion of a. great revolutionary demonstration by the St. Petersburg proletariat and students of the city, which resulted in several encounters between the students and the police, and more or less serious injury of the latter. The situation was such that authorities were finally forced to fill the streets with military as in the ominous days of the Trepoff regime. After adjournment of the session of the house, a tumultuous crowd, by this time estimated to number close to 40,000 persons, with red banners flying and accompanied by the music of revolutionary chants, started toward the central quarter of the city, where the winter palace of the emperor is located. Pew elements of the prelude of "Red Sunday" were lacking and the command, "fire," would have precipitated a similar massacre. But the present prefect of St. Petersburg, General Dracheffski, followed another course, and dispersed the procession by charges of mounted gendarmes, armed with whips, and by an imposing display of force, he prevented the demonstrators from reforming. During the long hours of the morning and afternoon the police guarding the Tauride palace acted with great forbearance, giving the spectators a free vent in singing and cheering, and only interfering to prevent the people from forcing their way into the palace. When the deputies emerged after the adjournment of the session the temper of the crowd was fired by speeches from social revolutionary members, a dozen of whom mounted upon the shoulders of their followers and harrangued those present upon the necessity of organizing to support parliament against the government. The social revolutionary motto, "Through fight our right," was adopted as a general slogan, and simultaneously red handkerchiefs began to flutter above the heads of the crowd, and then the crimson banners appeared like magic. In the meantime the authorities had hastily, concentrated a strong force ofgendarmes, which charged the head of the procession when it reached the Litloiny prospect, one of the main business avenues of the city. Thegendarmes plied their whips vigorously, and in one case used the flats of their sailers. The crowd attempted to reassemble in front of the detention prison, where hundreds of political prisoners are confined, and again in front of the general court building, where the political trials are held, but in each instance it was dispersed. M. Goluboff, vice president of the council of the empire, called the lower house to order and in a colorless speech invited the members to sign the path of allegiance to Emperor Nicholas The conservatives cheered the mention of the hamb of the emperor, but the opposition members remained silent. M. Feodor Golouin, president of the Moscow province, was elected president. He is a member of one of the oldest families of Russia, and one of the foremost liberals of the old school, but in no sense a radical. He has many friends in court circles and is understood to have the support of the labor and peasant members of the house. SENATOR FRYE AND THE DAM BILL. Lawmaker from Maine Causes 'Hilarity Among Dignified Solons.' Senator Frye, of Maine, starred the senate Saturday. He was on his feet making a report from his committee on commerce, on several bills, when he suddenly raised his voice, and exclaimed. "If I can get immediate consideration for that dam bill I will promise the senate not to report another dam bill this session." Amid, a general laugh the bill was passed and a dam will be built across certain shoals in the Savannah river. CAN CUT OUT BOOZE. Judge Speer Decides That Municipal Councils Have Right to Refuse to Issue Whisky Licenses. In a decision Monday Judge Emory Speer, in the United States district court, at Augusta, held that the city of Valdosta, Ga., had a perfect right to pass an ordinance prohibiting the sale of liquor in its corporate limits. The opinion is the result of an application for injunction brought by E. E. West and others, of Florida, that would restrain the council of Valdosta from passing such an ordinance. Counsel for the applicants fully stated the grounds of his bill and was then asked: "Is that all?" His reply being in the affirmative, Judge Spacer delivered his opinion, which is in part as follows: "This is a bill presented by E. E. West and William B. Roberts, residents and citizens of the state of Florida, in which they pray for said, as stated by their counsel. This is that this court shall grant an injunction restraining the majority of the municipal council of the city of Valdosta from enacting an ordinance prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors within the corporate limits of that town. They are not directly interested in the sale of liquor themselves, but incidentally they claim that their property is benefited by the traffic. One of them is a hotel keeper, or is interested in a hotel, and, presumably, there is a bar in his hotel, or if there is no bar there, his receipts are augmented by the bibulous individuals who flocked to Valdosta to allay their thirst. "The mayor and council of the city of Valdosta having the right to regulate and grant licenses, presupposes the right to refuse them or to revoke them. I think it will be a most excellent thing for the property of these gentlemen, and for the property of everybody in Valdosta, and in Lowndes county, and for their moral status as well, if the city council (or other city councils) would prohibit the sale of intoxicating drinks, would stand steadfastly to that prohibition and enforce it rigorously by due process of law. I believe it would do more to solve the urgent and vital problems which are pressing on our southern people, do more to decrease the volume of vagrancy and crime, give the farming and manufacturing interests of the country reliable and industrious labor, save the unprotected women of our country from the horror of wrongs which shake the whole nation, and more to restore us to the simple life and genuine old-fashioned Americanism, safety, contentment and peace than all other causes put together. And this will be the last court, that I am aware of, which will entertain an application of this sort to interfere with the city government, in any measure which may stop the traffic in intoxicating liquors." WHILE ENGINEER WAS ABSENT Freight Train Rolled From Siding to Main Line and Collision Occurred. With no engineer at the throttle, freight train No. 81 drifted from a side track to the main line at Howell Station, near Atlanta, Monday morning, and was crashed into with such force by incoming Southern passenger train, No. 143, that five postal clerks, a negro passenger and one of the conductors were painfully hurt, and both engines badly damaged. As is usual the freight train was side-tracked at Howell Station that the passenger train from Greenville might pass. While waiting for the latter train to put in appearance, Engineer Davis made his way to the telegraph station that is but a few yards distant from the place of the wreck, and was there at the time the collision took place. The siding on which the freight train lay is a good deal elevated above the principal track, and, with no one at hand to apply emergency brakes or resort to some other expedient, it rolled slowly to the main track, when the passenger train swept down on it. OLIVER MAY SUE FOR. EXPENSES. Says Uacle Sam Should Reimburse Him for Lost Lash. It is rumored in Washington that Mr. Oliver will submit a bill to the administration for $40,000, expended by him in forming the Panama Construction Company. If not approved, he will take his complaint to congress. He went to this expense, he says, on an intimation from the president that his bid would be accepted if he associated with himself some men who were acceptable, who could help assume the responsibilities of the undertaking. BAD SMASHUP ON SEABOARD No. 38 Limited Crashes Into Runaway Freight Cars. ONLY ONE LIFE IS LOST Engineer Was Pinned Under Overturned Engine and Cremated--Coaches and Freight Cars Burned. Train No. 38, of the Seaboard Air Line, known as the Exposition Limited, crashed into ten runaway freight cars 1 1-4 miles from Powder Springs, Ga., at 7:04 o'clock Friday night, and in the smashup, which resulted one man, Engineer Hudgins, was burned to death, seven persons badly injured, the passenger engine and five coaches utterly destroyed and five freight cars reduced to ashes. A few minutes before the accident a freight train one mile from the scene of the wreck started to side-track in order to allow the coming passenger the right of way. In some way ten of the cars, five of them loaded with cotton, broke loose from the train and started down the track toward the approaching No. 28 at a fast galt. One mile from the starting point the brakes worked, and the flagman, leaping to the ground, rushed ahead to flag the oncoming engine. He says he did flag the train, and it is the opinion of those on the train that either he warned the engineer or that Hudgins in some way became aware of the danger, for one of the passengers testifies that there were three distinct shocks, the first when the emergency brake was put on the train. It was too late, however, for the engineer to save his own life, though his action, it is believed, was responsible for the safety of the passengers, for the next moment the engine plowed its way into the first freight car. In the frightful shock that followed, the engine tumbled down the embankment, a distance of fifteen feet, and there fell over on its side, pinning the engineer under it. The engine being out of the way the first baggage car then hit the first freight car and piled upon it. Another second and the mail car was added to the heap, while the smoker, halfway off the track, continued to hang on. The passengers, shocked and bruised, having realized that they had escaped with their lives, scramoled out of the cars and crowded out into a field of mud, while a heavy rainstorm beat down on them, rendering their situation exceedingly uncomfortable. As the last of the passengers left the cars the trainmen started on their rescue work, the first coach began to burn as if the rain were so much kerosene oil, the mali car, baggage car, engine and first coach blazing with increased brilliancy. The spreading flames soon reached the other coaches, and then continued on their way through five of the freight cars which were the cause of the wreck. The five which were utterly destroyed were loaded with cotton. The injured were taken to nearby homes, and the passengers footed it through the rain for over a mile to Powder Springs, where all possible was done for their comfort. SUDDEN DEATH FOR JUSGE. Seaborn Reese, Prominent Georgian, Succumbs to Heart Disease. Judge Seaborn Reese was found dead in his law office in Sparta, Ga., Friday afternoon. His death is attributed to heart disease. The passing of Judge Reese removes from the scene of action one of the most prominent men in public life in the state, which he has served, notably, in the capacity of legislator, congressman, jurist and citizen. ROAD OFFICIALS MUST ANSWER: Coroner's Jury Readers Verdict Ament New York Central Wreck. The jury at New York in the coroner's inquest into the New York Central wreck on February 16, when twenty-three persons were killed, brought in a verdict Monday night, holding the operating and construction departments responsible. Failing to get names he declared that he would hold the entire board of directors and the president of the New York Central and parole them. NO.23. SCOTCH GIRLS AVAILABLE "I can begin to send Scotch girls for domestics as soon as you are ready to receive them." The foregoing is an interesting extract from a letter just received by Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson from James A. Strachan, who is now in Glasgow, Scotland, where he is representing Georgia as commissioner of immigration and from which country he has already sent a number of immigrants to Georgia. Mr. Strachan writes Mr. Hudson that eight young Scotchmen sailed from Glasgow on the Anchor Line Steamer Columbia, February 22, for Savannah, and asks that arrangements be made to take care of them. Commissioner Hudson will see that this is done. Mr. Strachan also writes that he is now devoting his attention to making up a well-selected company to sail on March 9. He continues: "After accomplishing this I would then like to give my undivided attention to the chartering of a steamship to take, a ship-load across, but in order to effectually carry forward the work, the state of Georgia will have to put more funds at my disposal, as the amount sent is entirely inadequate to cover more, than a fraction of the expense incurred, not to speak of some personal compensation out of it for myself. "Sometimes it has been a real hardship for me ot carry on the work, for after having used up my own resources, I had even to borrow enough to pay postage to answer correspondence in the interests of immigration, which has now become quite an item in itself. To add to my financial burdens the great majority of my American correspondents would persist in not paying sufficient postage on letters, some only using a 2-cent stamp, when their letters required a 10-cent stamp, and it is the postal rules to impose a fine of double postage for any deficiency. "I assure you I will try to perform my whole duty under every circumstance, and will not incur any needless expense in carrying out my mission. I am not here to play or trifle and have no intention of shirking my duty. I believe the Empire State of the South will fully rise to the emergency, and not let me suffer while serving her interests. "In this connection I wish to call your attention to the fact that the city of Rome, Ga., single-handed put $1,500 at Mr. Swanson's disposal when he started on his mission to Sweden. "If given sufficient backing I can procure a shipload of 500 or more selected immigrants from Glasgow. Southampton and Liverpool are out of my jurisdiction. You will recall that my commission only covers Scotland. If you wish me to work in English and other territory you will have to grant me a commission for Great Britain and Ireland. "I can begin to send Scotch girls for domestics as soon as you are ready to receive them." "Farm help cannot be got in any great numbers till after May 26 — 'Term day.' They are engaged in Scotland for six months and a year, and their engagement ends and begins on the date mentioned. It will be necessary, however, to do vigorous propoganda work among them beforehand, in order to secure them before re-engaging to their masters." Mr. Strachan's present address is James A. Strachan, No. 80 Watt street, S. S. Glasgow, Scotland. BODY IS FULL OF NEEDLES. Woman Swallowed a Whole Package and Surgeons are at Work. Mrs. Dolly Dussler, 22 years old, of New York city, who swallowed a package of needles several months ago, is at present under treatment in Bellevue hospital, where the surgeon states she has still scores of needles in her body. At the Fordham hospital, where the woman was first treated, five operations were performed and fifty needles extracted. SENATOR BACON IS APPOINTED To Succeed Himself for the Interim Term By Governor Terrell. Governor Terrell of Georgia has ap- pointed Senator A. O. Bacon to suc- ceed himself for the interim term between March 4 and the meeting of the Georgia legislature in June, at which he will be elected United States senator for another term of six years. In a letter to Governor Terrell Senator Bacon stated that he had found ample precedent for such an appointment. Largest Sick and Death Benefits; Smallest Premiums.

Members of the Gordon monument commission will meet on March 11th at the state capitol for the purpose of opening bids to erect the pedestal and also to decide upon the date for unveiling the statue and arrange the program for the occasion. Hopes have been expressed that it might be possible to have the unveiling ceremonies on the 12th day of May. It is stated, however, that the exercises will more likely be held some time during the month of June, probably on the second day after the general assembly is convened. The equestrian statue is now being cast under the direction of Solon Borglum, the sculptor. The jury at Lyons in the case of William T. Gilpin, charged with the murder of W. W. McDonald, a prominent attorney of Douglas, brought in a verdict of not guilty, after having been out several hours. Gilpin shot McDonald in his wife's room at the Rimes House in Vidalia, one night last October. He had concealed himself in the closet of the room. After McDonald had entered, Gilpin sprang from his place of confinement and emptied two revolivers at McDonald. Gilpin pleaded the "unwritten law" as his defense. The state alleged that Gilpin had conspired to take the life of McDonald. Mrs. Gilpin was also under indictment, but the case against her was not prosecuted. According to Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson, it is up to the Georgia Immigration Association to get busy quick in the matter of getting immigrants to the south. The longer the delay, the more severe the restrictions likely to be put upon immigration agents by the foreign countries from which we are seeking to secure desirable citizens for the state and section. "I am reliably informed," said Mr Hudson, "that the foreign countries from which we propose to draw immigrants, are constantly putting new restrictions upon those representatives who go there for the purpose of inducing it. From the information that comes to me, I am satisfied that our immigration officials would have an easy time today compared to what will confront them in foreign countries six months from now, and the quicker we get busy the better. The matter is in the hands of the immigration association, so far as the Georgia Cullings Curtailed Items of Interest Gathered at Random. Carworkers Again on Strike. Carworkers Again on Strike. All the car workers on the Georgia railroad, who recently returned to work at Augusta, after being on strike three weeks for an increase of wages, have quit work again, alleging that the company has violated the articles of agreement. Money for Georgia Troops. The treasury department at Washington has notified Senator Clay that the claims of the Georgia Spanish-American war soldiers, which have been pending before the department for several years, have been settled, the aggregate of the awards is $29,333 and warrant for this amount will be promptly sent to Governor Terrell, who will distribute the fund. Georgia Building at Jamestown. The contract for the erection of the Georgia building at Jamestown, which will be a reproduction of Bulloch Hall, at Roswell, the girlhood home of. President Roosevelt's mother, has been let by the Georgia Jamestown commission to a Norfolk firm of contractors on a bid of $12,000. It is hoped, however, to scale that price considerably on account of a large amount of material, both lumber and brick, which the commission has had donated to it to go into the building. The first county immigration association to be organized in Georgia was formed at Butler, in Taylor county, the past week. The organization meeting was well attended by representative citizens, and great enthusiasm prevailed. President John A. Betjman, of the Georgia Immigration Association, was present, and made an address. The county association will co-operate with the state immigration association. Prominent citizens of Taylor county were elected officers of the association. * * * Bacon's Credentials Presented. A Washington dispatch says: The credentials of Senator O. A. Bacon, re-appointed by the governor of the state, for the interim between March 4, when the senator's present term expires, and the election of his successor by the legislature, which meets in June, next, were presented to the senate Saturday. The appointment will make Senator Bacon's term continuous, whereas if the governor had Treasurer of the State of Georgia. Monument Commission to Meet. "Unwritten Law" Saved Gilpin. P.

Negro Who Passed as White Man "Deported" from Albany. A negro named Pete Ziegler has been passing himself off in Albany, Ga., as a white man for the past month. Ziegler could easily pass for a white man where he was not known. He has been boarding with one of the best white families in the city and has been associating with some of Albany's best people. A visiting lady recognized him as being a negro who formerly lived in her city, and her assertion was investigated and found to be correct. Ziegler was then carried to Forresters Station, a few miles north of Albany, and ordered to board an outgoing train. HOME OFFICE WEST BROAD STREET, SAVANNAH, GEORGIA. Phone 1198. Ga. Phone 2029.

Oze of our exchanges in referring to this machine says, as the Farmer has before stated that it is a mechanical Imitation of hand milking and requires xery little poner. Cows take kindly to, it and let down their milk freely, and there is no need for hand stripging, as ir milks clean. A most impevtant consideration is that it insures abso- Jute Cleanliness in the milk. The milk Passes through no tubes, goes direct from the cow into the bucket. One man or boy ean attend to four ma- chines and gan mill from four to five cows in twenty minutes or about fif- teen cows per hour, as many as cigh- wen cows per hour having beegssur- cessfully hardled. These mecianical methods will be a great boon to dairy- ‘men, not merely on the ground of cost Dut also because they will add greatly do the purity of the milk. . ‘Value of Skimmilk for Laying Hens. ‘The Department of Aericalture has ecerved a report from the West Vir- ginia Dxperiment Station of a test ‘made to determine the value of skim- milk as against water for wetting a feed mash. In the first test. which covered 122 days, twenty-two hens fed skimmilk Jald 1244 eggs. as compared with 998 ‘exch Jaid by the twenty-two hens fed math Wet with water. Tn the first perfod of the second test, sixty hens fed the skimmilk ration laid 802 eegs in thirty-seven days, as com- pared with 632 eggs.laid by a similar Jot fed no skimmilk, In the second pericd the rations were reserved.

Ip both experiments more eggs were reduced when skimmilk was sub- stituted for water for moistenizg the mash. Under the ‘conditions prevail- ing in these experiments and with eggs seiling at twensy or twenty-five cents sper dozen, the iskimmilk used for moistening the mash kad a feeding ‘syalue of from 11-2 to two cents per quart. In these trials 802 quarts of skimmilk were fed, resulting in an in- ‘erease in the e33 production of 702 Seess. ¥v? ss Some Points About Alfalfa. “It is remarkabie how people have to be eduéated to the use of alfalfa,” iremarked a hay dealer who bas a large retail business. “Dairymen have to have it constantly argued to them be- fore they got on to its great value. \Mulemen took to it nidre readily be- ‘eause the mule is surposed to be able to stand anything, but the horseman has refused to feed it to any consider- able extent. This fs due to the falla- ‘lous idea that alfalf, would unduly stimulate the digestive organs, the same as green clover. This is not true, however. Of course, you must feed it moderately until the horse gets used to it: then there is no difference be- ‘ween it and the proper kinds of hay, excent that it produces more flesh and ‘brigivens the coat and makes it glossy.” * fhe Department of Agriculture has sben searching the world over for hardy ‘alfalfa seed for the extreme north, and ‘on the wind-swept plains of Siberia, far to the north, where the thermome- -ter often stands 49 degrees below zero, and where there is lttle rainfall and Uitte srow.

Tne alfalfa 1s extremely hardy and bears a yellow flower. nm Cows Hold up the Farm. * Neewithstanding what has been said about the value of the Iesumes, one should not be led to believe for a mo- yment that all of the nitrogen which they contain is gathered from the air and hence fs pure gain. \ The fact {3 that the richer the‘farm ‘ani the greater the amount cf stable snanure and nitrogenous chemical man- sures applled, the less will be the net ‘gain by way of the atmospheric nitro- ‘gen acquired. It has, for example, ibeen abtinaantly demonstrated that the ‘legumes In ‘the presence of an ample jsupply of easily assimtlable nitrogen trom the atmosphere. On this account the imzortance of the legumes on d well manage! farm is probably less as a gatherer cf nitrogen than as a soll improver and a saver of grain bills— points which apparently in the Jast ten years have beén given relatively little attention. . ‘That wise old teacher, Prof.” Levi Stockbridge, lost no opportunity to im- press upon his students the fact that the cow should be made to pay a profit regardless of the manure, and that the farmer who kept cows merély as man- ure producing machines might justly be anxious about his balance sheet. ‘The fdeal condition of New England agriculture would be one under whieh the need of commercial fertilizers might be ellminated by the develop- ment of a profitable Jine cf animal husbandry, which should make’ the farm practically self-sustaining. This condition s, perhaps, most nearly reached when butter and swine con- stitute the chlef marketable products of jhe farm. Egs, milk and grass farms, for example, are continually parting with large quantities of plant food—Dr. ,H, J. Wheeler, Washington County, RII Winter Treatment. ~ A correspondent of the Rural Maga~ zine gives some excellent advice on the winter care of fowls. We made an extract from his article: “Tho warmer the house, the more necessary it Is that there be no cold drafts; for fowls that are accustomed to and kept in a warm temperature, catch cold more easily than fowls that have become hardened to a rather low teruperature. Kuot holes and cracks cause Grafts} drafts usually cause colds; colds frequently develop into’ roup; and every one who has evér had experience at all with roup, knows what a dread disease it is.“ Once It gets hold of a flock of poultry it is next to Impossible to eradicate the dis- ease without sacrificing the greater part of the flock. If your house contains earthen floors {and we have found them to be abore par as compared with other kinds), all the dropping and filth and two or three Inches of the old dirt should be removed. Allow a few days for the dirt then exposed to the alr to become thoroughly dry, and then bring in enough fresh soll or sand. and gravel, to raise the floor of, the house up to the height of at least six Inches more than that of the surrounding earth on the outside. : “Before cold weather sets in perma- nentlf, piit not less than twelve to fourteen inches of good dry. litter of some kind all over the floor cZ the exer- cising apartmezt. This may seem like a rather large quantity cf material to some, but a few handfuls do not make a litter by any means, and it is im- possible to have too much litter on the floor. ‘The fowls like to hunt and scratch {n thie material, especially if it 14 replaced with fresh. quite fre- quently; and by scattering all their graip feed in It, little difficulty shoula be exrerienced in keeping the fowls exercising and busy during the winter.” Farm Notes.

NEW USES FOR MICA. are wanice sCconstracted Plates, The mining of mica has grown to be an important industry, especially sinco it has been found to-be an in- sulator of great value in electrical ap- Paratus; “but little is popularly Amown of its sources. Some inter~ esting information is given jn an ar- ticle on “The Uses of Mica," contrib uted”to Cosmos (Paris) by-Mr. Four- ques, Mica has been used for cen- turies, he notes, but its uses have greatly multiplied in recent years. Once fis oniy value was as a glazing for Janterns or as a decoration, but. it 13 now applied in many new ways, due especially to the development of the clectrical industries. . The term “mica” embraces a group of complex silicates. Its most remarkable char- acteristic, common to all these varl- ‘eties, is the case.with which they spilt infp thin, flesible and often transpazént leaves. In thick plates it appeats opague with a plack or colozed reflection. This is due to.the innumerable surfaces of cleavage from which the light is reflected suc~ cessively, finally beln's entirely ab- soibed. Transparent ‘shects of pale color are often utilized for glazing, especially int stoyes and iamps, and such use absorbs about 2 third of the world’s supply. The writer contin- ues: . 7 “The most jmportant use, howover, is now as an insulator in electrical work. Mlea fs infustble or nearly 50, impermeable to moisture, -elastic, flexible and clezvable; these quali- ties are not poszessed all together by any other known substance. It is thus’emptoyed for the insulation of the wires and bars of the arma- tures in dynamos, that 15 to say, be- tween the conductors and the iron core. For this a very flexible mica is requited—noc white mica, but am- ber colored. Armatures with mica- insulated conductors are incombusti- ble. ks “It serves also for the manufac- ture of the resonating dizphragms of telephones and phonographs. “Jn leayes in natural mica there are often holes, striae, or small in- eluded quartz crystals, which greatly Umit its use. ‘The Inclusions, ia par- ticular, facilitate the establishment of short circuits. Thus the electrical industry has recourse to the use of plates of reconstructed mica. “To obtain these, sheets of paper as large as required are spread with gum lac, and powdered mica is sprinkled over them in as uniforin a. layer as possible. After drying, a second layer of gum is applied, then more mica, and so on, until the de- sired thickness Is reached. The plate is subjected to a pressure of about 1900 pounds to the squate inch and ‘nt the: same time heated by steam, The product thus obtained {s homo- geneous, free from cracks, of uniform thickness, and docs not absorb mots- ture if the heating has been, properly. done. It may be sawed, “cut and pierced with ease. Finally, it Is cheaper than natural mica. “Conse- quently, It has taken the place of the latter for work of great size and even for that of ordinary size. “In small establishments the man- ufac.ure of this ‘micanite’ is carried on by hand; but on the large scale itis performed mechanically, so that one woman may maké about seven cubic fect in a day, which would re- quire the work of twenty women using their hands only. Tlie manu- facture of tubes, rings, etc., Is car- ried on in a similar way. “Mica powder 1s used for the dec- oration of wallpaper, as in the pro- duction of snow effects; ft is also largely employed in compositions that are non-conducting to heat. - “Veins of mica are found in all countries, but the industrial market 4s supplied chiefly by India, Canada and the United States.”—Transla- tion made for The Literaty Disest. genera En Pinmindiiee According to Dr. Gulzmann, whose reporthas been adopted and pub- Ushed by the German Government, involuntary mimicry plays a great part in stuttering. Like yawning, it 4s catching. The quicker a child is and the more imitative, the more apt it is to imbibe any defects of speech on the’ part of those by whom it Is surrounded, Conclusive evidence of the contagious nature of stuttering is to be found in\the fact that the num- ber of stutterers in a school increases steadily as the children pass upward from class to class. In the public schools of Berlin, for example, the number of stutterers among the ehil- dren in the lower class was over five per cent. of the total strength of the class. This proportion rose from year to year as the children passed ‘upward in the educational scale until in the higher class the percentage was discovered to be .161, of more than three times the number found when the same. children were In the lowest grade.—Ledgez. ¢ ‘An Bovine Patelarch. ‘There has been recorded in Eng- Jand the phenomenal case of a horse living to be thirty-six years old, ‘Tho Parls papers, however, report one in the French ‘capital having reached the patriarchal age of forty-three.

A+ pee ay Tee s 2 AA SAaI ae Ee Sermon HUOOL tre ranous DINE * Subject: Christ's Agony and Ours. Rrookiyn, N. ¥.—Preacbing at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on tha theme, “Christ's Agony and Ours,” the Rev. Ira Wemmell, Hen- derson, pastor, took as his test Linke 33:34, “And ye would not.” He said: - t ‘The lamentation of Jesus over the City of Jernsalem was orcastoned by His clear vision of the depth of her need. of the comnlcteness of her re- Jection of Himself and the revelation of and from the Father that He brought, and by His firm conviction that disdain for His Gospel meant death for “herself. Feeling In His inmost heart that His wos the truth that could saye the ¢lty of His neovle from its sin; knowing, ax He did, that He was’ the long-heralded Mes- siah who should lead His countrymen into the Iherty of that Ife within Johovah which ehovid satisfy their souls; and exverlencing. as Tie had, the temper of the minds of the ec- clestastical and clerical leaders of the synagognes, Jesus was sick at heart over the spiritual doom that was sure to overtake His people. To Jesus sin was the most awful, the most terrifying, the most fearful thing in the world. For Him the word “stn” summed up, short and quick. all those agencies ‘which were anti-Godly and which Jed mon far from the Father. Sin meant destruc- tion, disapproval In the eyes of God. and Its wages were the seeds ot death. The Gospel, on the other hand, held for Jesus the kernel and the conclusion of all those forces that should sain men life eternal and the full. erithnstastic favor of the King. thelr Guide. “Being born again of God and entering into the freedom of the spiritual life divine, Jesus con- celved these men. His brethren, as obtaining deliverance from eternal death. With this philosophy and this vis- Jo of tho nved and the fssne—both of which Jesus had direct from God —is it any wonder that He wept over the City of Jerusalem? Sin is death. ‘My .Gosnel is the way of sure salva, tion—the only way—and the true guide unto life that {s eternal. Thus Feasons Jesus. These men are bound in and unto sin. How gladly would J teach to them those spiritual truths that should save them, but they will not. Sin ts their choice. separation from the Father Is thelr self-willed death. Do you wonder why the Say- jor suffered unto bitter agony and tears?. His was the wide and com- prehensive view of the world, its sin, its need, its*salvation, its denial, its destruction. Any smaller oz Tess comprehending {nsight would have heen of none avail. A great, Mmit- less, untversal understanding of the situation as it was—and fs—was the one means fo stir the soul of the Christ to its depths. A weaker man with a smaller horizon would have become discourazed or disgusted. A ‘bis man, full of heart and srit, with ‘the richness of God's love flooding all “his being, was the oaly one who could ‘mourn. Jesus: wept—not from dis- gust, or discouragement, but becanse ‘His ‘whole soul yearned to lead His “dying brethren into life for. evermore. The weight of their guilt, the cer- tainty of their dying, the uselessness ‘and the wickedness of it all came ‘upon the soul of Christ with resist- ‘Tess force and wrung His heart in agony. ‘And now, beloved. this lesson from the life of our Lord points a three- fold duty for each of us. The acccpt- ance by us of this triple obligation which the agony of the Master calls to our attention. will prove to the world about us that our Christ wept not in vain, And the duties three are these: First, we must be convict- ed of the awfulness of that sin whose Togical outcome is death. Secondly, we must have an experimental and distinct knowledge that the only sure salvation from this death-dealing sin fs through Jesus Christ. Thirdly, we must, with weeping kearts, go forth into the world as living evangels to preach to all mankiad salvation from this deathly sin through Jesus Christ our Lord. "tho awfulness of sin {s a byword rather than a belief among men to- day. Io our earnest and quite lesiti- mate endeavor to publish the glory of the love of God for the sinner, we have lost to a great extent our con- sciousness and our former denuncla~ tion of the hideousness of sin. In our endeavor to escape from the un- reasonable curse of a bodily hell we have, mauy of us, rushed to the other extreme—that is to say, no hell at ail. In our earnest preaching of the love of God toward the sinner we have become, I fear, too lenient with sin. My friends, the love of God is a reality. The punishment and the death of man brings no joy to the Father's heart. Jehovah wants every man to live within the light of His countenance oflove. ‘To the end that wo might have Iife and that more abundantly He sent His Son our Sav- for to reveal Himself to us. But sin fs always hateful to God. His whole nature shrinks from it, as should our natures, as from a thing unclean. He can have no communion with {t—nor should we.

Comlag to Him ‘for healing we may find ease- ment for our souls. “Trust in Him will gain release from evil: A whole life spent in THis service will reap a rich reward.’ His is the only gos- pel that contains the truth entire. His ts tho one salvation that onr spirits need. His is the gift of Ifa forever unto all who hear, believe and live for Him. Being certain that sin fs death, we must preach to men the way to Ife through Jesus Christ our Lord: ‘fhe trouble with much of our testimony fs that we are a Mitle ‘shaky on our own founda- tlons and that too much of our testi- mony Is from the mouth ont and 1s not welling up from hearts that have fasted of ‘the joys of the Christ- Diessed life. Too much of our knowl edge of sniritual truths comes to us. at second-hand and too Ittle arises from the denths of personal expori- ence, Our ideas must he ent clear as to What Is the state and the tuture of men who are continninz in sin. Woe must, feel that Jesus ts tha need ani the Savior of other men, 23 He has been the need and the Savior of each of us. We must get that vision of the world which shail make ‘us weep as did our Lord, which shall make us say With Patil, “Woe fs me_ if I nreach not the Gospel.” Ab, yes, beloved. we must, with weeving “hearts go forth to lead men up to God. If sin is death and we possess and know the way to Hte everlasting, we must not, rest until we. too, bave bronsht some brother home to safety. I'say we must. IT feannot sav-we may. Our orders read “go'thou.” not “won't You Dlease g0."" Christ pizdds with the sinner, but His word is law. and so it should be. to thoge who are His. Come with:me into the busy strect on any working-day, or to any gaudy concert-hall on sunny Sabbath dare, and J will show you why you should ween and work’ There they are! heedless. unheating, uncaring, bound more intent to make money or to while the hows away than to care their Immortal souls. Young ,:and old. rich and poor, hardened sianers and youths who azp just enteringstira road to death—each of them. all of them, caring little. and thinking less" of the awfulness of their sin and tho outcome of their stame. Good men who aro wise fn everything but their conceptions of their need of Christ. Pure men who will come to Jesus if so be some one will only put them to the test. Leaders In the church who profess the Christ, but whe mis- represent Him. A weary, heavy- laden host — ande wo can tt the crushing weight of sin. Loole at them and consider. Is It any wonder now that Jesus wept? Ah, beloved, we ought to weep—weep like Jesus because men are dying right before our eyes, within reach of our hands; ‘weep—weep unlike Jesus because Wo are unworthy servants of our Mas- ter, because wo are recreant to our duty and our trust. My friends, men who sin are doomed to death except Christ enters in the life and saves. To each of us the question of our God comes clear and strong to-day as {t came to Isaiah the prophet in the year that King Uzziah died, “Whom shall I send and who will go for us.” Will yowrefuso the Father or will- you ‘say with Isalah, “Here am I, send me.” ‘The Viety of Usefulness. Someone once said to Cromwell: “You, sire, know well the usefulness of piety!” “I know something bet- ter,” Cromwell replied, “the plety of ‘usefulness.” The phrase works hoth ways. Piety {s useful, and use- fulness isa tuncifon or activity of piety. If it is meant that slmply to ve busy {s to be religious, a subtle terror lurks In the remark’ of Crom- well. But {f the meaning 1s that the plety demanded by the age fs not a self-engrossed religiousness which dwells apart in reflective uncencern, but the practical kind of faith that ts busy in the King’s business, an im- portant truth fs thus brought to our notice, The Soul's Greatest Necd. Rest {s the deepest want in the soul of nan. All men “do not desire pleasure: all men do not crave In- tellectual food; but all men long for rest. It {s the need which sometimes makes the quiet of the grave an ob- Ject of deep desire. There the weary are at rest. And it Js this which, consciously or unconsciously, is the real wish that Iles at the bottom of all others, 4 ee A ‘fhe Church's Duty.

The acconimoda- tion, itis said, is better, but re- stricted to the gallery. It is dangerous to the health of our women to climb the dizzy flights tothe gallery, Would any vther race stand such restriction but the Negro? and yet, the giddy, thoughtless throng who’attend the theatre are not compelled to go. Pride and self respect should bea sure deterent Last weekin Albany, Ga, a colored man named Pete Ziegler was caused to leave the town because he passed as a white man. He boarded with one of the best white families and went with some of the well known white ladies. He was detected by a visiting white lady who knew himin another city, He was very fair, well educated and polished. Despite it all he wasa aNegro. Sometime ago acolor- ed man who is very fair of skin while riding in the colored soach ofarailway wain, was com- pelied to goin the white coach by the conductor who said _ he was white. Race prejudice causes Many inconsistent acts. ‘Tn faneral reform wave has struck Atlanta. The white ministers have adopted the fol. lowing resolutions which are meeting hearty approval ; “Resolved, That funeral sermons and orations be dispensed with. . “Ng That this association — protes! against the custom of conducting funeral services on the Lord's day, except in eases of necessity. 3 That when necestity require funerals on the Lord’s day they shall sot be held during church service hours. - 4g That the custom of wearing mourn: ing on the ground ef health and expense be discouraged. “5. That the association disapprove the Practice of ministers and pall-bearers re moving their bats at burials.” = ___ ‘Tne mail carriers and clerks are smiling over the increase in salary, by the recent bill passed in Congress and which applies to those in first and second class offices, - “Geven grades of clerks were establisb- ed with salaries ranging fromO$600 to 1.200. City letter carricra were divided into five grades, with salaries raugiog from $600 to $1.600, the $700 salaries being omitted. Railway mail clerks were divided iato six grades below that of the chief clerk, salaries in each grade being increased $100 and ranging from $300 to $1,700. The maximum salary was fixed at $840 for rural carriers. “Two new provisions were added, one providing that the postmaster general may, in kis discretion, allow a railway mail clerk thirty days’ sick leave in any fis- cal year with pay, bis duties to ba perform- ed without expense to ths government dur- ing the period for which ne is granted leave, and the other that carriers who on Jane 30, 1907, are regularly cmpleyed at 8800 per annum’ shall be prometed to the fourth grade upon satisfactory evidence of their etliclency daring the last one year's service.” Under the Present Jim Crow Law, ‘“‘Cut Out’? Lincoln Park; It has been rumored that Lincoln Park will be reopened shortly. his rumor has not been verified, but if it is true, and under the existing jim crow law on the street cars, every ingtitution should boycott it, and rot a member of the race should enter its gate. If this place is patronized, we would ina way sanction the present enforcement of the~ jim crow Jaw and prove to the opposite race that weare void of the least pride, and we willbe giving the “street car company more power to ‘further enforce this unne- cessary'law. dJtisin the power of the:company to modify the present-enforcement of the law, but the manager has ignored the suggestion for its modification.

The few “buzzards” who are riding are not accorded the treatment that they should have, especially on the Thunder. bolt cars. White men in front of the jim crow seats take plea. sure in puffing their smoke in the faces of the female riders, while the conductors look on with seemingly pleasure. A few Sundays agoa female attethpt- ed toalight from the cars on West Broad street, and before she did so the bell was rung and she, fell head foremost The conductor did not stop to render her any assistance or note the exterit of her injuries, but it served her right because she had no business on the cars. Tt may be inconvenient, but if iris necessary for us to have picnics, lef us hire wagons and hacks and go to Cattle Park, Styles Park and other places, thereby preserving our pride and manhood. Any individual or institution attempting to give a picnica t Lincoln Park, or do anything to cause our people to patronize the street car company under the present restriction, should be frowned upon.. Keep away from Lincoln Park, and shun the vars. Walking is healthy, therefore keep on walking. If you havea long distance to go, atartearlier, thereby increasing your health and your wealth.

Tmyceved Dititeam In carrying the ordinary dustpan from one room to another some of the contents are sure to fall out. Dust being very light, the slightest wind picks it up and blows It off the pan. This cannot happen with the one shown here. Over half the surface of the pan is covered, which helps to prevent the dust escaping. As an ad- ditional afd, the inventor has added a handle, by which the dustpan can be carried anywhere without fear of los- J / [AZ| -. ( \ 1 \ | ‘Dust ‘Cannot Escape. ing any of the contents.

Parsnips will boll tend: er in from 20 to 30 minutes, spinach in 20 minutes; turnips need from 45 minutes to an hour.

He points out that when the old-fashioned cooking utensfis were in vogue ap- pendicitis was practicaly unknown. “The present age uses increasingly enamel ware, which splinters on the least_ provocation. . “I find that not only a food such as ‘porridge will carry the needlelike splinters to the body, but that a soup, and even tea, may very well contain sharply splintered particles of tls most. dangerous glass.” ,° Many physicians and surgeons have advaneed the theory known as the mechanical theory, that the cause of appendicitis may be the introduction through the food of some shaxp, irri- ‘tating substance, causing fnflamma- tion and ulceration. ‘They designate tooth brush bristles, wheat grit, particles of antimonal rub- ber stoppers, as common irritants. None of these are of such frritating quality. as spicules of enainel, which might be swallowed with the sauces or vegetables cooked in the cnameled ware vessels. ‘Accordingly among medical men and some housekeepers there is 4 crusade haying for its object the return to the old copper or fron kettle.

Jig Dancing Keeps Him Young. It you wish to become a nonagenar- fan then dance a little every morning just before breakfast. This tonfe 1s advanced by Alter Sliberman, ninety-one years old, an inmate of the Home of the Daughters of Jacob, situated on Tower East Broadway. Silberman for years has been dancing from ten to fitteen min- utes every morning before breakfast. He deciares that dancing fs the great est exercise in the world. “Dancing puts more ambition Into a man and makes him more cheerful and happier,” said the white-bearded patriarch yesterday, after he danced the “Kotzatski,” which is a famous Ruselan dance. Silberman came to this country years ago. Ho was wealthy at one time, but lost his fortune in apecula- tion. He das been at the Home of thie Daughfers of Jacob for years. “My advice to the sounger genera- tlon Is that they should dance every morning before breakfast and also just’ before retiring,” he said—New York American. 7 STRIKING AN AVERAGE. ‘Bacon—According to an expert in phrenology, the average. adult head. has a clreumterezice of fully 22 inches.

These latter would uot be specéways for racing, but trne highways for travel and pleasure arising. They would, however, be exclusively for the use of automo- bites, and on them coubtiess a much higher rate of speed would be per- milssitle than on the common roads. The metalling would be done with a Urect and sole view to the use and swear of motor ear wheels, and we as- ‘sume there would be, so-far as pos- sible, an avoidance of grade crossings. in-brict, the automobile roeds would Ue differentiated and separated from ordinary roads some'vhat as railroads have long beer. In this proposal there is much which Is engaging and whten appeals to the practical as well as the im- aginative sense. ‘That ingenious so- cialist, Mr. G. H. Wells, in one of his hooks a few years ago, forecast the construction of just such roads, nu- smerously radiating from every large city and connecting all Jmportant centres of population, as a means of solving at once the two problems of residence and transportation in and about cities. It may be that we shall cone day come to thet. There can be Uttle doubt that a broad highway on which private motor cars and public ‘motor coaches or omnibuses could be yan at high speed, extending from New York through the villages along the Hudson, or up the Bronz Valley, or along tke Sound, or through the Oranges, would be largely used. The present scheme does uot, however, go as far as that, but contemplates mere- Ty the construction of a few “rani Une” motor roads through those re- sions where automobile travel is heaviest. There is constantly much | travel of that sort from New York to Tnxedo, to Lenox, to Bernardsville, to Lakewood, to Morristown, to Greenwich and to other places from ‘thirty to a hundred miles away. It is a hardship to require such travel~ ers to confine themselves to a rate of only ten or twelve wiles an hour, and yet for much and, indeed, most of the way the roads ran through regicas where 2 high rate of speed on a com- mon road is unsafe. And the steady growth of population and of other uses of the roads makes it inereasing- ly dangerous to run fast. | Jt may well be argued, tlren, that | with the extensive adoption of a new | klnd of vehicular traffic a new kivd or system of roads should be created for it, Just as was done at the introduc- tiqn of railroads. ‘There fs necd of this for the sake of the automobilists themselves, In order that they may travel rapidly and enjoy to the full the advantages of the marvellous ma- chines which they drive, and for the sake of the general public, so that | they may enjoy in safety their or-| diary use of the common roads. Wo may add that there is need 6f it for | the sake of the automobiles and ot | the roads, for the former are not al- ways run to the best advantage on roads which may be quite suitable for horses, while roads which are ad- mirable for horses and horse vehictes are often ruined by the ponderous’ traMe of motor cars. There are, of course, the questions of room and ex- pense. In many places there 1s 2m. | ple room for new roads, and, indeed, much need of them for the relief of the present overcrowded highways. Elsewhere motor roads might be pro- vided by widening existing roads and siving half of them to the motors— just 25 some of onr parkways now have one road for pleasure vehicles. one for horseback riding and a third for business traffic. ‘As for the cost, it would doubtless be objected that roads for the exclu- sive use of one class of vehicles should not be made and maintained at the expense of the whole public. We are not sure that that would be valid, however, since our parks and speed ways seom to furnish preeedents for such construction of special rozds, and people who own and use no horses are now taxed for the making and maintenance of roads on which horses are driven. These roads would not be esseutiajly exclusive, but would be open and free.to any- nody. with an automobile~ Perhaps this ‘point. might be compromised through a reasonable automobile tax, to be applied to theze roads. It {3 generally recoxaized that the enor- nous wear and tear of automobiles on common roads make it fitting that chay shouwid be specially taxed for yoad maintenance, 25 is now cone in Rugland.

Both Cured by Cuticura. | * Test year, after having my little girl treated by a very prominent physician for an obstinate case of eczema, I resorted to the Cuticurn Remedies, and was #0 -well pleased with the alinost instantaneous re lief aGordeA that we discarded the phy- sicisn’s prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticurn Ointment and Cuticura Pills. When we commence with the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs were covered with -unning sores. In ‘about six weeks we had her completply well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble. “In July of this year a little boy in our family poisoned bis hands and arms with poison oak, and in twenty-four hours his hands and arms werg a inass of torturing sores. "We usel only the Cutieura Rem- cedies, washing bis hands and arms with the Cuticuré Soap, and anointing them with the Cuticura’ Ojntment, ‘and then gare him the Cuticura Resolvent. in about three weeks his hands and arma heated op.

Jn obedience to the call of the Grand High Priest the Grand Council met with the committee in King David's Tabernacle on Cotton avenue, Macon, Ga,, February 22nd. The meet- ing was an interesting one, and each companion was made te rejoice after hegring the report of the committee. The committee was, commended for making such a report. Comp. C.

Some White Men's Attitude Towards’ the Race Clearly Defined. George S. Halaes, Esq. Late Foreman Chatham County! Grand Jury, Sa- yannah, Ga. Mr. Foreman; ‘The country people have read with great pleasure certain extracts ' from the general _present- ment of the grand jury of Chatham county. These extracts are, so fill of suggestion that there is a widespread desire to have the entire present ment put in permanent form, so that posterity may recelve the incalcula- ble benefits flowing from the novel recommendations ;contained therein. How original are the “three great questions,” “the problem of the Ne- gto; the reformation of criminal pro- cedure, and the establishment of a juvenilp court!” . Why if it if “we have borne with the idleness and shiftlessness of the Negro for upward of 2 generation,” you do not recommend striking from. the penal code of Georgia the section | whick makes it a misdemeanor to so liclt or procure emigrants? Did not the inspired source from which’ your presentment flowed know that for twenty years, it has been a criminal offense for an emigrant agent without payment of $560 H- cense to solicit 2 Negro to become an emigrant? Did the inspired source not ‘know that the feeling of.the people of the country against an emigrant agent is intense and has resulted, In more than one instance, in violence? Why is it that the public nolicy of the state retains, by most drastic legislation, the Negro, if he is so shitt- less and worthless? ‘Dees’ your in- -splréd scurce suppose that .the Nesto probleni is solved by this ‘idle and an. walled for denunciation ‘of a race?

S ELMORE. if as you say “the only friend he (the Negro) has ever had is the South- ern white man,” docs not your inspir- ed source realize that it Is a very poor way of showing frierdship, to formally present the race as “etre. grading day by day,” that the suf frage amendment was an “unparallel- ¢d crime,” that “we have borne with the shortcomings of the? Negro for upward of forty years,” that the South “has fed, clothed hin:," tbat he lacks “moral appreciation of his contractéd obligaticns,” that he hay an “incred- fole sollcltude for the criminals of his race,” that “the white man no} pays the wages ead the ‘while wo man does the work?" + Is it true that the race is retro- grading? Was the Negro responsible fcr his franchise? What were the shortcomings of the Negro fér up- ward of forty years? Has not the Negro contributed by his crude Ia- bor to feed and clothe not only him- self, but his employer? We are ur- der no obligation to feed and clothe the Negro, and when we uo so it is because it pays to do it. Is it not true that by means of the ignorance of the Negro advantage is often teken ef Lim, in making and executing con- tracts? Is not that the reralty which ignorance must always pay to cupid- ity? Is it not catural that he should show solicitude for the criminals of his race? Do you not know that It takes less evidence to convict a Negro ‘than It does to convict a white man? Do you not think a simple state- ment of fact would have been more appropriate than such twaddle as is contained in this phrase; “With cheer- ful indiscrimination to the seductions of witches and the recaleitrancy of bartiyard roosters?" Where did you get this presentment? You did not write it? Who wrote it? Who fs re- sponsible for the “‘syllogistie | gro- cesses” referred to in this present- ment? Can'"you define a “syllogistic process?” Can any twelve of the grand jurors making this presentment give an intelligent idea of what they mean by this phrase? When, by a “syllogistie process,” you have informed the public as to the inspired source from which, through you as a conduit, the streams of rhet- orie flowed, we may take the liberty of making further inquiry as to the yroposed’ changes in criminal laws and the organization of a juvenile coirt.—Effingham, in Meldrim Guidon. ~ FARMER KILLS FOUR PEOPLE, Under Bond for Criminat Assault, He Ruas Amucks With Gua.
