Of Tenement House Holocaust in New York. Hapless Men, Women and Children Caught In Trap of Roaring Flame and Smoke and Quickly Thirteen persons lost their lives and several others were injured early Monday in a tenement house fire in New York. All the dead were Italians. Seven of the thirteen were children. The bodies were found huddled together in rooms on the top floor of the four-story building, where the terror-stricken people had been driven by the flames, which rushed up from the lower floors. They had succumbed before they could reach windows which led to the fire escapes. Some had been enveloped in the flames and burned alive. Others, overcome by smoke, were spared the agonies of death in the flames. That the fire was the work of incendiarles, who sought revenge, is the opinion of the police and firemen who made the first hasty examination. Three weeks ago three Italians were caught in the act of attempting to rob a safe in the saloon of Gulseppe Cudano on the ground floor of the building. The safe contained over $2,000 which the saloon keeper's friends had withdrawn from the banks during the money panic. The would-be robbers were arrested and are now awaiting trial. The fire of Monday started in Cudano's saloon, and the police believe that it may have been the work of friends of the prisoners who took this means of squaring the account with the saloon keeper. Cudano discovered the fire when he went down early to open his place of business. As he opened the door he was met by a rush of flames, and without waiting a moment to investigate, dashed up the stairs to the tenements above, crying out for the occupants of the building to run for their lives. When he reached the rooms occupied by his own family he burst in the door, and, seizing his young son in his arms, told Mrs. Cudano and other members of the family to follow. Cudano and the boy managed to find their way down the stairs to the street, but before the women could get through the flames had cut off all exit. Not a single person was seen to appear at any of the windows of the blazing building with the exception of those on the second floor, from which several persons reached the fire escapes and were rescued. After the flames had been partially checked, firemen fought their way through the smoke to the upper floors. There they came upon piles of dead where they had fallen victims to the rush of flames and smoke even before they had a chance to attempt to save themselves. In one of the heaps the firemen found a woman who had made one last desperate effort to save the life of her baby even when she knew that she herself was doomed to a horrible death. She had folded her arms tightly around the little one and then huddled down close to the floor, her own body protecting that of the child. The mother's body was badly burned. That of the child bore scarcely a mark, but it was dead from suffocation. On every side of the mother and child lay the bodies of other victims. TAX RECEIVER INCOMPETENT. County Grand Jury Recommends His Removal from Office. Comptroller General Wright is in receipt of a copy of the grand jury proceedings of Montgomery county, Georgia, for the November term, in which it is recommended that Tax Receiver W. M. Outlaw be removed for incompetency. No action will, be taken in the case until the matter has been sifted to the bottom. FORGER PROVES COWARD. Rather Than Be Arrested He Took Fate tal Dose of Poison. Rather than face charges obtaining $5,000 on a forged bill of lading, Louis Straus, a mining broker, swallowed a quantity of polson at his home in New York Monday night, and died a few minutes later. At the time two detectives were in the house to arrest him. One Man Killed and Half a Dozen Badly Wounded in Pistol Fusillade in a Darkened Room. With all lights extinguished, pistols volleying, terrifying women sc ..6 .. and the injured groaning, a country dance at the home of George Vinees, one mile from Flint, in Mitchell county, Georgia, wound up between 11 and 12 o'clock Wednesday night in a carnival of blood. When the smoke of battle lifted and lamps were relighted it was found that Will Shiver, member of a prominent Mitchell county family and a young man highly thought of, was dead with a bullet in his brain; Peter Luckey and Floyd Fowler were painfully wounded by pistol balls; Mack Ford and Hillie Shiver were insensible from the effect of frightful beatings, and several others were injured. The coroner is making an investigation of the case. There is a good deal of doubt as to who fired the shot which killed Shiver, owing to the fact that the lights were all extinguished at the time the shooting began. About thirty shots were fired in the crowded room where the dance was being held, and it was miraculous that many more people were not killed or seriously wounded. None of the young ladies present were hurt. It was stated that the fracas was caused by liquor. Will and Hillis Shlver were drinking, and when they attempted to dance together in the crowded room they knocked against a number of young ladies. The latter's escorts resented this and a fight resulted. In a moment pistols were drawn and the shooting became general. BIG STICK WARDED OFF. Suspended Captain and Crew of River Boat Found "Not Gullity." Exoneration from the charge of reckless navigation which endangered the life of the president of the United States during the river trip from Calro, Ill., to Memphis, Tenn., October 3, was obtained at Calro Thursday for the officers and crew of the steamer Dick Fowler, who were found not guilty by United States Inspector Waltz and Hodge of Memphis after an exclusive trial. The charges were brought by Commander L. S. Vanduser, who was on the lighthouse tender Lilly, which acted as escort to the steamer Mississippi, the boat on which President Roosevelt traveled. The Fowler was accused specifically of running by the Lilly without sounding her whistle and running too close to the steamer Mississippi, the boat, the president was on, thereby endangering his life. The captain of the Fowler was suspended on the express order of President Roosevelt. Cairo residents who made the trip on the Fowler say the charge grew out of jealousy because the Fowler is a speedier boat than the Lily. The Fowler, it is said, was not near the Mississippi except when it ran alongside in order that the Cairo delegation might serenade the president, and then he came out and acknowledged the tribute. TELEGRAM FINALLY SENT. Georgia Baptist Convention Congratulates Alabama Solons. At Thursday afternoon's session of Georgia State Baptist convention in Valdosta, the matter of sending a congratulatory telegram to the Alabama legislature, on the passage of the prohibition bill, which created some excitement, Wednesday, was sprung again. Rev. J. C. Solomon reintroduced the resolution, wording the proposed telegram as the previous one. Many delegates opposed it again, and on the grounds formerly stated, holding to the complete divorcement of church and state, but they were finally outvoted. Marched Negro Thief, Whom She Captured, to the Calaboose. After pursuing a negro thief for half a mile along the railroad track at Tybee Island Friday morning, Mrs. A. Short, wife of an engineer residing there, overtook him, and at the point of a revolver marched him to the calaboose. The citizens took him in hand later, meted out punishment of some sort, just what has not been clearly set forth, and told him to decamp. He did so. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 30. 1907. FINAL SESSION IS HELD Commissioner Hudson of Georgia Elected to Succeed Commissioner Watson as PresidentNext Meet- The third and final session of the convention of Commissioners of Agriculture and Agricultural Workers in Columbia, S. C., was held Thursday, closing at 3 o'clock. Just prior to the conclusion of the meeting, after two ballots between Atlanta, Asheville and Nashville, the latter place was chosen as the next place of meeting. Commissioner T. H. Hudson of Georasteghia was unanimously elected president, with Commissioner Blakeslee of Mississippi, as first vice president, and Hon. R. E. Rose of Florida as second vice president. Dr. B. W. Kilgore of North Carolina was re-elected secretary and Dr. MacGruder of Virginia, was re-elected assistant secretary and treasurer. During the session the special committee apointed to canvass the reports received from the several states of the cotton belt, estimating the 1907 cotton crop of the south, reported, through Commissioner Hudson of Georgia, who, in presenting the report, stated that the material difference between the 1906 and the 1907 crop rested in the telegraphic estimate of Commissioner Milner of Texas, who had reported the Texas crop at a maximum of two and one-half million bales, with a minimum of two and one-quarter million, against over four million in 1906. Commissioner Hudson stated that Texas was the one state in the south having a complete system of reporting the cotton crop. The report, estimated upon the basis of carefully gathered data, from all the states, fixed the 1907 crop at 11,412,829 running bales, against 13,439,734 running bales as reported by the federal government for the crop of 1906. The chief feature of the final session was an elaborate address upon the subject of immigration by J. H. Patten, secretary of the American Immigration Restriction League, who dealt with this broad subject as affecting the south in the most exhaustive manner. He suggested changes that he considered absolutely necessary in the federal laws. In this connection, he said: "First and foremost, the federal law should not, only allow absolute freedom for the state selection of immigrants, but should aid and assist instead of hamper work along the lines of a picked immigration." Another feature of the convention was the address of Commissioner Wilkinson of Alabama, along the line of work not now undertaken by the state departments of agriculture for the betterment of the agriculture of the several states. During the afternoon session there was a vigorous debate in regard to the endorsement of the bill pending in congress as to intermediate agricultural education, proposed by Congressman Davis of Minnesota. Finally, a resolution urging the passage of this bill by congress was adopted. Resolutions weer also adopted indorsing in heartiest terms the Appalachian forest reserve. The association re-enacted its hearty endorsement of the policy of selection of immigrants at their own homes and of the effort being made to open transAtlantic service between the cotton belt and Europe for the purpose of putting the agricultural product of the south on direct export. These resolutions have been adopted by the association for the last three years. The draft of the uniform pure food law was submitted and approved, the association referring such draft to the different states for their consideration. There were numerous addresses during the day, relating principally to uses of fertilizers in the southern states. The association reached an adjournment sine dite at 3 p. m., and the balance of the day was devoted to a ride over the 'city of Columbia' and her suburbs, the guests being entertained informally at the Country Club by Commissioner Watson of South Carolina. CUT YOUR ACREAGE And Hold the Present Cotton Crop for Fifteen Cents, SAY OFFICERS OF UNION Important Meeting of Board of Directors of Farmera' Union Held In New Orleans - Plans A plan to reduce the acreage of cotton next year in an effort to control its price was arranged at the meeting held in New Orleans Saturday by the board of directors of the Farmers' Educational and Protective Union of America. A meeting was called to be held in Memphis on January 7 next, to lay this plan before the cotton farmers of the south. The proposed reduction in acreage of cotton is to fix the minimum of cotton at about 15 cents per pound. The holding by cotton planters of at least 8,000,000 bales of this year's crop in warehouses until cotton brings 15 cents a pound, was the principal object of the meeting of the board of directors. Considerable reticence was shown as to the purposes of the meeting. The financial situation was thought to require the most careful co-operation by planters in order to hold up the price of cotton. the warehouses and to make a warehouse receipt on cotton as nearly as possible the equivalent of money, in order better to insure the success of the storing scheme. The recommendations adopted at the meeting will be submitted to the cotton planters in each of the states represented at the meeting. These states are: Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Arkansas. C. S. Barrett of Union-City, Ga., national president of the Farmers' Union, presided. "The union controls 6,000,000 bales today," said President C. S. Barrett, of Georgia, of the union, "and we are confident that at least 65 per cent of this can easily be held off the market without any suffering resulting to the farmer through lack of sufficient funds and supplies from other crops. I shall be greatly surprised if we do not see cotton selling at 15 cents a pound before January 1, 1908, but believe that a reduced acreage next season will make it even higher." It is proposed to establish agencies at Galveston, New Orleans and Savannah to enable farmers to keep in close touch with the spinner and save the middleman's profit. A circular alleged to have been written by a prominent New York cotton speculator urging bankers to force cotton on the market by foreclosure was read to the directors. They decided to issue an official call for farmers to withdraw deposits and otherwise to boycott banks which attempt to force the marketing of cotton by foreclosure. The directors announced that their reports estimated the present crop at 11,000,000 bales. Notorious Greene and Gaynor Case Assumes New Status. A petition for a writ of certiorari in the famous case against Benjamin D. Greene and John F. Gaynor, in which they have been convicted of embezzling some $600,000 from the government of the United States, was filed in the supreme court of the United States at Washington Saturday. The question will be raised as to whether a person indicted in this country for a crime not included in the Canadian treaty can be tried for such crime after his surrender by the Canadian authorities upon a demand for extradition based on other crimes. FOR CRIMINAL LIBEL Editor Hearst is Held on $500 Bond by New York Judge. Justice Watt, in the court of special session at New York Thursday, held William Randolph Hearst for the grand jury in $500 on a charge of criminal libel preferred by William Aston Chanler. The charge against Mr. Hearst grew out of a publication in the New York Evening Journal concerning the case of Raymond Hitchcock, the actor. Mr. Chanler's name was mentioned in connection with the article. BILL CALLS ON TEDDY. Bryan Pays His Respects to Roosevelt at White House—Subjects Discussed Not Divulged. President Roosevelt and William J. Bryan were in conference for half an hour in the president's private office at the white house Saturday. "I was not invited to call," Mr. Bryan said on leaving, "but I called upon the telephone and asked when the president would receive callers, and, on being informed, came simply to pay my respects to the president." Mr. Bryan was not willing to discuss the details of his interview, but was free to add details to the financial plan which he proposed a few days ago. In reviewing every measure of relief which had come to his notice, Mr. Bryan said that nothing seemed to be intended as meeting the situation as effectively and at the same time as simply as the plan he had suggested. This plan, he said, was simply to have the government insure depositors in national banks against loss by reason of the failure of the banks. It was not intended, he said, to have the government collect a fund for this purpose, to be kept on hand. Whenever a national bank should be required to pay its depositors it would be the duty of the government to make an assessment on all national banks to meet the amount of loss by reason of the failure. Such assessment, Mr. Bryan said, would be infinitesimal. Opposition to this plan. Mr. Bryan conceded, might be made by state banks who would be left out of the plan. The answer to this, he said, was that the states would individually take up the same scheme and stand as a guarantor against loss to depositors in state banks. Mr. Bryan said as yet no plan had been made to have his relief measure presented in congress. However, he felt very enthusiastic over the prospects of its ultimate success. Mr. Bryan remarked that he had had a very pleasant chat with the president. FOOTBALL ROW SETTLED. The executive committee of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association wound up its session in Atlanta Saturday afternoon by reinstating the Georgia team, this following the exoneration of Tech. However, the charges against the Georgia team were not entirely cleared, to judge from the statement of the committee, which censures Professor Sanford, the athletic director, Captain Kyle Smith, and debars Coach Whitney from southern football together. Not much mention is made of the alleged ringers that participated in the Georgia-Tech game. However, the committee admits that from the evidence the University authorities knew that at least four men had been imported for the team a few days prior to the game with Tech. Also that ten days before this game, a number of men were matriculated and assigned by the agricultural department. They were at once entered as members of the football team and did participate in the game in question, two of them failing to return to the university after the game, and two being dismissed by the faculty upon their returning to Athens. The committee found that there is a great deal of rottenness floating around in Athens, but gives expression to that fact in the following manner: "That a condition of affairs has prevailed which resulted in gross scandal to the institution and the association." To sum up the statement, the committee states that there was something wrong at Georgal somewhere, but leaves further investigation to Chancellor Barrow and his faculty, Georgia being put back into good favor along with Tech. Says Panic Was Caused by Reckless Denunciation of Business Methods. Denunciation of Business Methods. Extravagant living by the American people, a plethora of undigested securitites and widespread denunciation of American business methods, were blamed for the financial stringency by Leslie M. Shaw, president of the Carnegie Trust company of New York, and former secretary of the treasury. In a speech Saturday night at a banquet given by the National Business League in Chicago. Can Get 75 Per Cent of Cash Pald for Certificates. PROMISE OF CORTELYOU Secretary of Treasury to Cut Out Red Tape as Far as Possible and Issues an Important Announcement. An important announcement of policy was made by Secretary Cortelyon at Washington late Friday afternoon in regard to the allotment of the one-year treasury certificates, which indicates that the secretary is prepared to cut red tape as far as possible and place the proceeds of the certificates promptly at the disposition of the money market. He proposes to return to national banks subscribing for the certificates, as a deposit of public money, 75 per cent of the cash paid for them. The remaining 25 per cent will go for the time being to strengthen the cash balance of the treasury. The banks surrendering this 25 per cent will not, however, suffer a reduction in their supply of currency, for they will be entitled to receive the par value of the certificates purchased in new bank note circulation. In order to make this transaction immediately effective, the treasury will retain the certificates purchased by each bank, if it desires that they be deposited with the United States treasurer as securities for circulation, and will ship the notes at once. Secretary Cortelyou is carefully studying the applications for certificates in order to make the allotments in the manner which will be most beneficial to the monetary situation. The secretary continued to receive calls Friday from prominent bankers and letters from various points in regard to the new issues. Among those who called on Secretary Cortelyou was Sol Wexler, vice president of the Whitney Central National bank of New Orleans. Mr. Wexler reported that the cotton movement was going forward remarkably well under the adverse conditions prevailing. The New Orleans banks are supplying currency to the cotton growing districts, and at the same time are maintaining adequate cash reserves. It is desired, however, to obtain all the assistance possible from the treasury, in order to prevent a deficiency of currency, which would congest the cotton crop at southern points and prevent the drawing of bills against shipments to Europe. Thus far the difficulty in disposing of bills for cash at New York, which was somewhat acute two or three weeks ago, has been largely overcome partly by an improvement in the general situation and partly by direct dealings with Europe. Rumors are in circulation in regard to the purpose of the president and Secretary Cortelyou in regard to currency legislation. Suggestions such as the insuring of deposits. in national banks, which Mr. Bryan has just indorsed, the issue of additional bank notes against state and municipal bonds and the requirement of interest on government deposits in the banks are reported to have been presented to members of the administration, and to have been favorably received. The fact appears to be, however, that the president and secretary of the treasury are simply assuming a receptive attitude and are listening to all suggestions which are made to them, without committing themselves to any. About 400 men, employed in the shops of the New York Central and Hudson River railroad, at West Albany, N. Y., have been laid off. This is about a quarter of the entire force. PASSENGER RATES FIXED By Alabama Railroad Commission to Become Effective Dec. 10. The Alabama railroad commission has ordered that joint passenger rates between all points in the state be made by each road on a basis of 2 3-4 cents per mile, the date to be December 10. Roads which have not accepted the state rates are included, as well as those which have. An order is also issued allowing those lines which did accept the state rates to increase their rates to 2 3-4 cents a mile straight, 2 1-2 cents for family books and 2 1-4 cents for 2,000-mile books. 4 SERRE cacisGaerere = ’ ° Largest Sick “and Death Benefits; Smailest Fann “" L.

Every farmer wants to know to a cent the value of what he buys and sells, and should not leave this to be figured by the party with whom he is dealing. As labor saving machinery has been invented to save time and, physical strength, so there are devices to enable the mind to reach quickly and zecurately results usually arrived at with much thought and tedious calculation.

O'Malley, in The Century. HER DILEMMA Dearest Bettina: This must be a short letter, but I need your advice, and I need it quick. Please telegraph your answer. No, on second thought, that won't do. But write by return mail. I'm having a glorious time in the country, after all. My uncle has a beautiful home, with a regular park for a yard, and his big house has all the comforts and none of the discomforts of a steam-heated flat. Barbara Morgan and her husband are here, and little Cousin Isabel has a boarding school chum visiting her, and Dr. Burt almost lives here while his wife's away, and last week Paul Herrick came out for a few days. It's a regular house party, you see, and everybody is crazy over horse-back riding. My uncle David hates automobiles, and everytime one of his rich neighbors gets a new one he goes and buys another horse, so there are mounts for us all. You ought to have seen us last week, galloping over these country roads. Well, to get to the point. Uncle David went to town. last Saturday and we promised him that a mounted escort of at least six should accompany his carriage when it came to the station to meet him that afternoon. It's about two miles from the house. Then a storm came up—a howling wind and rain—and Barbara was for backing out. She's so different from what she was before she got married! But Paul and I wanted to go, so at last we started out—Bab and her husband, Isabel and Dr. Durt, and Paul and I. You ought to have seen us—all toggged for the rain! I had on a coat and cap of my Cousin Jack's. But caps wouldn't stay on, so we put them into our pockets. Then Barbara's hair came down, completely—such hair, Betsy!—and every hairpin was lost. It was a terrible wind, of course, but I can't help thinking that Barbara made the most of it. She knew very well that she looked like an October magazine cover, with all that goldy-brown mass of hair flying. She made the conventional fuss—said she couldn't go another step and all that. Then Dr. Burt asked if she'd go provided Isabel and I would let down our hair, too. Well, Bab said she would. I do think a girl might be past such tricks after she's married—though, of 'course, as far as she know—well, anyway, you can imagine how I felt, Betsy. Little Isabel naturally didn't mind. She shook out her short pigtails without a murmer. But I said "No." That was the signal for mischief. Paul didn't do anything—only hung back and looked worried—but Dr. Burt and Mr. Morgan rode up alongside my pony, and the more I insisted that I wouldn't take down my hair, the more they insisted that I should. And such impertinent jokes! Dr. Burt kept asking me if there was anything I'd like to slip quietly into his pocket. He said his wife wore one, and he knew all about it. Then they all shouted except Paul. At last Mr. Morgan had the effrontery to begin pulling out my hairpins, and Dr. Burt was starting to help him when I got on my dignity. I told them I could do it—rather than disappoint Uncle David—if Barbara insisted, but that I should do it myself. Then I ordered those two married me to ride ahead with their own companions, and I did it in a way that made them go! That left Paul with me, poor boy! He was trying so hard to look indifferent. Well, I put up both hands and carefully extracted all the pins, holding the coll of hair right in the place until the last instant. Then I said, "Oh, see Isabel's horse!" While Paul was looking at the horse I let my hair drop over my left shoulder, and, at the same instant, ran my hand swiftly down its length into the wide pocket of the coat I was wearing, where I left my hairpins and—well, you know. It was the nearest thing! In the wink of an eye, that unsuspecting Paul was looking at me again, and there I was, calmly shaking out my mane, and pinning the pocket shut with a hatpin. You know my hair doesn't look so sparse when its down, Betsy. It's only when it's up that it needs the extra braid so much. It's rather short, to be sure, but it has a kink and a fluffiness that help. Anyway, both those married men were perfectly crest fallen when they glanced back. You'd think they had counted on seeing me baldheaded after my topknot was down. But Paul looked perfectly happy. We rode like mad after that, not to miss the train, and our hair streamed out behind like the heroine's in a novel, and—well, if my cheeks were half as red or my eyes half a shiny as Bab's and Isabel's were, I can't blame Paul very much for acting like a goose and calling me "gypsy queen" and such names. But, Betsey, from that hour things got serious." I put him off as long as I could, and then there came a time—— Now, I don't know what to do. For I can't help knowing that matters were precipitated by that episode of the hair. While I don't see any reason for telling my secrets to Mr. Morgan and Dr. Butt, Paul might think he had been deceived. You're the only one who knows, Betsey, and I'd never have told you if you hadn't had to go with me to match the color. You remember, yourself, that it wasn't a large one, but of course Paul couldn't be expected to discriminate about that. You see, I want to be strictly honorable and yet—oh, dear! Ought I tell him, and will it make a difference in his feelings if I do, and, if I don't, will it make a difference in his feelings later? Another thing: I can't think it will come to this, but if I should have to choose between Paul and my switch, what in the world can I do? Your anxious Peggy.—Chicago Daily News. A Tribute to the Egg. By WILLIAM JENNINGS BRXAN. We have crossed the Bosphorus and bade farewell to Asia, within whose borders we have spent about seven months. They have been wonderfully instructive months, and we have enjoyed the experiences through which we have passed, but we cannot say that we have fallen in love with Asiatic food. We have been afraid of the vegetables; we have distrusted the water, unless it was boiled, and we have sometimes been skeptical about the meat. The butter has not always looked inviting, and our fondness for cream has not been increased by the sight of the goats driven from door to door and milked in the presence of the purchaser. The bread was not a rival of the Vienna bread, and the cooking has not been up to Western standards. But the hen—long life to her. She has been our constant friend. When all else has failed we could fall back upon the boiled egg with a sense of security and a feeling of satisfaction. If I am not henceforth a poultry fancier in the technical sense of the term, I shall return with an increased respect for the common, every-day barnyard fowl. There are many differences between the East and the West—differences in race characteristics, differences in costumes, differences in ideals of life, of government, and of religion, but we all meet at the breakfast table—the egg, like "a touch of nature makes the whole world kin." Rap at the "Yellows." The University Magazine, published at Montreal, pays its respects to "The American Newspaper," ridiculing especially the stockhalfalutin phrases that, like a journalese revival of eighteenth century tags, do duty for the simplest objects, and the sporting humor. The article concludes with prophecy: There are signs that the people are tired of the farce, and that soon the lights will be out and the audience gone home. All art passes through this stage. In the early days of the vaudeville a negro and a flapstick were considered sufficient for an evening's entertainment. Towards the finish of the programme one got tired. But the average newspaper writer is the last man in the world to discern the hopeful end. The reporter of the baseball game continues his buffoonery every morning, repeating his jargon which was already tiresome, when Kelly sild and Casey went to the bat. The sporting editor yet "breezes" his horses, "works" them "on the flat," or "lifts" them "over the timber." His pugilists are as of old time "gluttons for punishment," and their "blows will not be denied." All sensible persons must yearn for the time when the "yellow metal" will have disappeared, when the "fiery element" will be quenched, when the "palatal hostelries" closed, when the "speckled beauties" will have vanished with the other-members of the "fanny tribe," and the "kings" of cotton, lumber and wheat will have gone with the "merchant princes" to their own place. Sword of King Behanzin. Behanzin, King of Dahomey, has presented his sword to the French Minister for the Colonies. The weapon was purchased years ago at a theatrical costumer's by an explorer, who afterward gave it to Behanzin. The King ordered the court armorer-to make a sheath for it out of empty sardine cans, and wore, it until quite recently.—London Evening Standard. NEW IDEAS in TOILETTES 1 New York City.—The simple shirt waist in taller style is a favorite one of the season, and is to be noted in silk, in flannel and in cashmere, made 1 in various colors to match the prevailing suits, so that, while there is a separate blouse worn the one color can be maintained throughout the costume, as well as in washable fabrics. This one is distinctly novel and 'smart in effect, while it retains the simplicity essential to waists of the sort and is finished with stitched ```markdown ``` edges. Buttons are used as trimming as ell as for practical closing, however, and as there are numberless beautiful ones found in the season's display, there is ample opportunity for excellent effect. In the illustration the blouse is made of heavy white linen trimmed with large pearl buttons and with collar and cuffs embroidered in eyelet style; but later, when actual cold weather shall have arrived, silk, flannel and the like, will be in demand. The waist consists of the fronts, the back and the pointed panel at the centre front. The waist is closed at the front but the panel is buttoned over into place at the left side. There are tucks at the centre front and back that extend full length with wider ones to yoke depth only, at each side thereof and the outermost tucks of these groups serve to conceal the arm hole seams. The sleeves are quite novel and are pleated at both their upper and lower edges, white they can be finished in three-quarter length with roll-over cuffs or extended 'to the wrists and finished with plain fitted ones. Finest of Velvet. A new velvet is so fine that entire width can easily be put through a small ring. When Lining Dresses. For dresses in light weight materials the lining of the bodice should be quite a small affair, extending back and front just below the waist line. Dainty Petti-coats. Petticoats are lovelier and more fluffy than ever before. Fine hand embroidery and masses or ruffles are the daintest that can be worn with evening gowns. Fancy Blouse Waist. Whatever feature the new, up-date waist may include, the one allessential one is some arrangement of trimming whereby the seams that join the sleeves to the blouse are concealed. Here is a distinctly new model that is both simple and effective, and which is trimmed to bring about this desirable result, while the shoulder line is by no means over broad, and it consequently is becoming to almost all figures. In the illustration it is made of crepe de Chine in a new lovely grey-green with trimming of velvet in a darker shade and of soutache braid and ribbon frills, while the yoke is of ecru lace. The combination of several materials on a single garment, as well as the color, mark the very latest style, and the blouse is altogether one much to be commended. It can be utilized both for the entire gown and for the separate waist, and is really appropriate for every fashionable material of indoor wear, inasmuch as all are soft and can be made full with success. Trimming of various sorts can be substituted for the velvet and soutache. The shoulder portions, for example, could be made of Oriental embroidery or of bands of embroidery held by narrow straps of velvet ribbon, or they could be of some contrasting material embroidered, while the frills can be of ribbon, as in this instance, of silk, of lace, or of the material. The blouse is made with a fitted THE CIRCUS IS HERE. THE FASHION IS ON. lining on which the yoke and the full portions are arranged. The shoulder straps, or epaulette like trimming, are arranged over it, and the regulation stock collar completes the neck. The sleeves, also, are made over fitted linings, and the lower edges of these linings are covered with frills. ```markdown ``` The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and three-quarter yards twenty-one, three yards twenty-seven or one and three-quarter yards forty-four inches wide with three-eighth yard of all-over lace, four and three-quarter yards of velvet ribbon, and ten yards of ribbon for frills, to make as illustrated in the medium size. Long Wrap Popular. Take it which way you will the long enveloping wrap is an insignia of the hour. By the Editor of Price Current. Who is to blame for the craze for money, for the wealth which has brought about the present ill-feeling between the multi-millionaire on the one hand and the masses on the other? The answer must be that the masses themselves are to blame. Why? A little consideration will make that clear. To begin with, nearly all the great millionaires, the very wealthy men who are actively engaged in business, were either poor boys or the sons of men who began life poor. Their constant aim has been to acquire wealth, not only to acquire plenty of wealth but more than anybody else had acquired before them, the more the better. Why? What has made such men money mad? Let that question be answered by asking another: In the United States, everywhere, among all classes in all conditions of life, in the cities, towns and in the country, what is the standard of success? What men and women are pointed out as having been most successful? Among all the retired business men you know, which one do you count as having been most successful? The man who has piled up the biggest heap of wealth and at the same time kept out of the penitentiary. Which active business man is the most successful? The fellow with the biggest pile or who is likely to get the biggest pile. Who is the most successful lawyer or doctor? The one who gets the biggest fee. Who is the most successful preacher? The fellow who builds the costliest church or gets the biggest salary. Who is the most successful clerk or teacher? He who gets the most per week. What farmer is counted the most successful? He of the most acres or biggest bank account. Who is counted the most successful by his fellow workmen? The mechanic who gets the biggest wages. Why does one leave one trade, profession or business to enter another except in the hope of being more successful. Successful in what? In getting more money. When he succeeds in adding more to his pile, however big or little that it may be, he gets the applause of his fellows. Those who don't applaud him envy him. Throughout the whole of your life, who has always been pointed out as the successful man or woman in any and every walk of life? Has it not been he or she who has been getting the better price for what they had to give? By constant example and teaching by parents and teachers, and by the practice of the world, the young are taught from childhood that money is the standard of success. They are taught to believe that people with money are better than people without it, that people with much money are better than those who have less. The rich and the poor and those in moderate circumstances act upon this principle. It becomes and has long since become a part of the very nature of the American people, and it will take the teaching of generations to eradicate from the minds of the American that the size of one's pocketbook is not the real criticism by which to judge of success. This wrong standard by which to judge of success. This wrong standard by which the degree of success is measured is the cause of the present money madness and the American people themselves are to blame for this false standard. Each is determined to win as much of success as possible. The desire in life to win success is a commendable one, but the definition of the word is by no means what it should be, and until the conception of that standard is radically changed there is not likely to be any change in the swollen fortunes. Dooley on Domestic Discipline. Mr. Dooley, in his recently published "Dissertions," discusses domestic discipline in his own inimitable way: "No g gentleman shud wallop his wife, an' no gentleman wud.

DISAPPEARING PULP WOODS. A Danger, Grave and Impending, May Be Enforced by Unlimited Adoption Be Eyed by Undivided Action. The Toronto Globe has begun a campaign for the conservation of Canada's spruce forests, which are the source of a large part of the wood pulp used for paper making in this country. In its issue of July 21 the Globe says editorially: "The spruce supply of the United States would be completely exhausted in half a dozen years if the manufacturers and users of paper had to depend on it alone. They are now, substituting large quantities of logs from Canada at great expense and are thus rapidly depleting our pulp supplies. A certain amount of forest is devastated every year by fire. Our own manufacturers consume a large amount of pulp that is made into paper for use in Canada, and a much larger amount for exportation to other countries. The supply at present available is enormous, but the consumption of paper is rapidly increasing, while the supply of wood if rapidly diminishing. It is only, a question of time when these two movements will result in a very inconvenient if not disastrous scarcity." A few years ago there was general confidence in the ability of our northern border States to furnish all the pulp wood that this country would ever need. That notion has been exploded. Our invasion of Canada for the needed supply is causing grave apprehension in that country. Wisconsin paper mills are buying pulp wood in Quebec, 1200 miles away. The situation is a little better in northern New York and northern New England, but even in those regions the end of our supply is immediately before us. Realizing this fact, a number of our large paper companies have bought extensive tracts in Canada and, are busily cutting on them. One company owns about 3000 square miles and another owns about 2200 square miles. There are others with smaller holdings. The point of special importance is not so much the possibilities that Canada may impose an export duty on pulp wood as the certainty that unless proper steps are soon taken there must occur an exhaustion of spruce supply in Canada, as well as in this country. So far as this country is concerned, there is little if anything that the Federal Government can be asked to do. The spruce regions of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota are not a part of the national domain. The danger, grave and impending, can be evaded only by State or by unfixed action, and only by the conservation of the existing forests and an extensive planting with a view to the remote future. Canada has much larger powers of restriction and may exercise them. If she does, this country must dance to the tune she pipes.—New York Sun. LAST Sunday Beth Eden Baptist Church unveiled a tablet in honor of its organizer and first pastor, Rev. Alexander Ellis, D. D. The members of the church are to be commended for doing this because it shows that they are not unmindful of the great work accomplished by this high-toned christian gentleman. The memory of all men of Dr. Ellis' worth and who have done as much for the race and the uplift of Christianity, should be kept green and their virtues taught to our children. A press dispatch from Agusta published last Thursday states that there was disturbance at Haines Institute caused by the visit of a physician to vaccinate, the pupils. The physician wanted to go into the classroom to do the work. This was objected to because it would tend to detract the pupils from their studies. It was suggested that the scholars would leave their studies one at a time. This the physician objected to, and of course objection was made to breaking up the discipline of the school and inference with the students' studies. The physician called in the police and the claim is made that Miss Laney used abusive and profane language to them. What's the use denying this assertion; everybody who know Miss Laney is aware that she is a lady and of course not guilty of the allegations. The main trouble with the physician and the police is that they were not considerate of the surroundings and went to the school and acted as if they were at a resort of toughs. SEVERAL events have occurred within the past week either of which could have terminated seriously and would have no doubt caused a truly race riot if it were not for the coolness and forbearance of our people. For this coolness and forbearance they are to be commended, and it is hoped that they will so continue. This virtue may cease if the authorities do not come to their aid more readily when it is needed and see that those guilty 61 wrong doing are punished. One night last week a colored woman was quietly going home. She was compelled to pass a number of white boys. Those boys immediately begun to taunt her. She replied and the boys assaulted her with rocks and ran her several blocks. This was witnessed by a number of citizens, but none of them protested and no policeman interfered. The police did nothing to apprehend the boys because they were white boys and the poor woman was colored. What would have been the result if a colored man had attempted to protect her? If the picture was reversed, every policeman would have been on the trail of the boys. On Saturday night a colored hackman was driving slowly down Whitaker street. Immediately in front of the horse a white man stumbled and fell. The horse did not touch him, and was stopped before any injury was inflicted. A hot headed white man jumped in the hack and beat the colored man unmercifully. The white man was not arrested. No police were near. Suppose the picture was reversed. Sunday afternoon a number of white men went to the south side and interfered with some colored boys and men. One of them cowardly struck a colored man while the colored man was leaning over. By chance these men were arrested. Coolness on the part of our men only prevented further trouble. The attention of the authorities is called to these occurrences and they should endeavor to remedy them and let the lawless white boys and men know that they cannot interfere with persons with impunity. The colored people are law-abiding and the leaders among them are always begging them to be so. The white men and boys must not take advantage of them. Georgia Baptist man's aspirant for political honors at the next Republican State Convention. He thinks that we are against him, but he is mistaken, because it is always our desire to honor and respect the old veterans. Dr. White accuses us as being "pugilistic" because we said that Bishop Turner should not allow a white demagogue like Tom Blodget to enter the pulpits of his church and assail the standing of men. Deep down in his heart, Dr. White agrees with us, we know that he does and for that reason we will not take him seriously. Too long has he been looked upon as the beacon light for the right thinking Baptists of the State and admired by the good Christians of other denominations, and we know that when he was pastor of Harmony Baptist church he would not allow a demagogue to deliver such disgraceful philippics against men as this white man is doing throughout the state. We have'nt the ability to do as much as some men are doing for the uplift of the race, especially in the disfranchisement matter, but what little we are doing is being done consciously and without hope of reward. Can Mr. Blodgett say so? Will he be found working for the poor colored people after the State convention next spring? Like all white men of his ilk, Mr. Blodgett wants to reach a goal, he is trying to reach it by using the Negro, and the disfranchisement matter is a good enough platform for him to get on. Our course in the Blodgett matter is fully sustained by the following able editorial from the Atlanta Independent: ' the Associated Press dispatches tell the story that Messrs. T. M. Blgdgett, politician, and J. M. Elder, postmaster at Hagan, were expelled from Darien last year. The men because of the mischievous nature of the doctrine they were preaching. "The Independent believes in free speech, but has absolutely, no patience with any man, white or black, who stalks over the country preaching race hatred and stirring up racial strife. In Georgia Mr. Blodgett, and every other man ought to be permitted to discuss, men and measures but no man ought to be permitted to stir up strife in any community. If Mr. Blodgett's speech was incendiary and calculated to further strain the racial feeling, the man or men who ask him to quietly leave town were benefactors. The chief affliction of the South 10-day is the latter-day political demagogue. Political tomofoery, tight money market and tumble in cotton, all are directly traceable to the tongue of political calamity howlers." "Blodgett is a white man with a thousand opportunities denied us, and no sane man can find a single reason why he will get on the stump and denounce even his own brother, his own flesh and blood and confess undying love for the Negro. Who can believe his unnatural position? The Negro can ill afford to trust him, and the man who does. Any man inhuman enough to denounce his own brother from every stump in the State is hardly the man for other people to trust. If a man will denounce and betray his own blood and race, would it be wise or healthy for other people to trust him? "There is no harm in the minister of the gospel discussing the ethical side of every political question with a view to enlightening the people, but it is a fragrant violation of every Christian principle for the house of God to be turned over to flippant demagogues to deal abuse and vituperation to his enemies. Annual conferences, churches and lodge rooms are not place for political speeches. "We had as well understand now, that we can not do our cause any good following a mischief maker. We must be reasonable men and discuss the propersion to disfranchise us soberly and dispassionately. Abuse the "machine" for its sins of omission or commission will not help our cause. We must be conservative and constructive. Our work must 'be as praiseworthy and helpful in character that we name our enemies and, challenge' the respect and admiration of our friends. Talk and abuse will not suffice. It will take organization and education of the sleepy Negro electors to win, and not scheming for delegates in the national convention. The delegates to the national convention can contribute but little to success and the 'disfranchisement preposition should not be used as a hobby to get votes. We appreciate all the good Mr. Blodgett can do, and we condemn with equal emphasis all the harm he intentionally does. "It is about time now for Bishop Turner and Dr. White to take their out out of the pubit and church and meet the people out in the public forum. "If Bloodyt or any other man in Georgia wants a decent hearing he must make a decent speech. They must learn that a speech does not carry with it the right attribut the public peace. That personal liberty ends where public injury begins." College Dots. For lack of space and time only brief mention was made of the silver wedding of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Roston in the last dots.

The entire services on Sunday at the First African Baptist Church, Franklin Square, was of marked interest to all who attended. Seemingly there was an outpouring of the Holy Ghost for everybody gave evidence their hearts were touched by the spirit Beginning at the early morning prayer meeting led by deacons Chas. Matthews and T.R. Williams there were evidences manifested of a glorious day in zion. At the 11 o'clock services Rev. I. J. Durham, D. D., M. D., preach ed an able sermon, which gave much encouragement to the bereft church and bore a deal of credit to the record of the church. His beautiful flow of language filled with wholesome thoughts held the audience spellbound every moment of his discourse. Touching on the conditions of race the reverend pained a beautiful picture and compared it with the Israelites escape from the Egyptian bondage. He said; "I have unbounded faith in God and my race, I do not believe that God ever would have emancipated us to only perish in the wilderness. Forty four years ago He started us for the promise land and He is still leading us." At the evening services Rev. D. S. Orner, B. D., reached the zenith in his semon. It was filled with enthusiasm, power and the spirit, and the members feasted off it richly. The church is enjoying many good things by the visits of suchable and eminent divines, and is getting along comparatively excellent, spiritually and financially. The Board of Deacons headed by Deacon B. H. Max well is engineering affairs creditably. The members are working harmoniously and ardently to rid the church of its indebtedness and so far have overcame many pressing demands which would have chagrinned the church. We feel very grateful to the ministers of our sister churches for the deep interest they and members have shown by visiting us and lending their assistance in this hour of our bereave ment. The union among the churches which our lamented pastor, Rev. J. W. Carr strove hard to cement is now bearing fruit to the honor of his name and to the church which he pastored. Rev. Orner conducted our Thanksgiving services. The J. W. Carr Club served Thanksgiving dinner to the members and friends in the basement of the church and realized a neat sum for the church. Bro. Jno. Snoe, Sister Georgia Simmons and the committee deserve much credit for the well prepared dinner. Sunday (tomor row) 3:30 p. m. will be our communion services and everybody is welcomed. Rev. A. A. Mathis of Atlanta, Ga., State S. S. Missionary will conduct the services assisted by our city ministerial brethren whom we expect to be present. At the evening services the G. E's.

His discourse was very interesting. Rev. Stanard is destined to become one of the ablest ministers in the Georgia Conference. The thought and ability exhibited by him speaks for a bright future. Rev Lindsay returned from Atlanta on Sunday, where he was looking after the interest of the church at the Atlanta Conference. Sunday School will have a harvest celebration on next Sunday, the 5th.

Finishing up this conference year, the pastor feels called upon to say to the members and many friends through THE TRIBUNE that he is indeed appreciative of their support and sympathy this year, for great has been our work and greater has been our trials.

It seems that the operation of cutting the street skirt must be accomplished with mathematical accuracy. It is an unpardonable sln to have it a trifle too long on one end or the other, even though the difference is so slight that it can be discovered by nothing less acute than the eye of a dear feminine friend. What seems to be an implement best calculated to A scissor is mounted on a stand. prevent such an oversight is the pair of scissors mounted on a stand as shown in the accompanying cut, which device forms the subject of a recent patent. The cutting blades can be adjusted at any desired point, and as the skirt draped on the model is turned around it can be snapped off with the minutest precision.—Washington Post. At a large evening party one of the guests stood in the corner yawning. "Are you much bored, sir?" asked his neighbor. "Yes, dreadfully," was the answer. "And you?" "Oh, I am bored to death, too." "How would it do to clear out altogether?" "I am sorry I can't. I am the best."—Democratic Telegram. The Moorish Government is incapable of maintaining order, or of compelling its own subordinates to do their duty. The Moorish Governors tolerate disorder If they do not connive at it and share in the booty. A case in point is the scene pictured on this page. In the city prison a number of Jews are thrust with great violence. Their houses and stores had previously been looted. No charges were made against them, and the only complaint made about them is that they did not surrender their property on demand of the mob. If SCENE IN THE TORTURE CHAM any of the Jewish prisoners are suspected of having money or valuables concealed, they are subjected to the "salt torture," which consists in fettering the right hand behind the back. It is inclosed in a leather wallet, in which salt is placed. The Jew feels his hand shrinking day by day, and if he really has the money, gives it up to save his hand from becoming permanently useless. A Government which tolerates such horrors is a disgrace to humanity. If it does not alter its ways, the public opinion of the world will insist on its abolition. —Christian Herald. Germany Studying Bread. In the production and control of a pure food supply by thoroughly scientific methods the Germans are disposed to keep their lead. The new Government method institute for milling research, supplementing the two institutes for research in the sugar and fermentation industries, is equipped with an experimental granary, a wheat and rye mill and a bakery, together with administrative offices and laboratories, the machinery and apparatus being of the most advanced kind, all driven by electricity. The mill has two distinct plants, each milling two tons of grain in ten hours. The purpose of the institute is to carry out practical research and scientific investigation on grain during storing, milling, working up and baking; to experiment with the baking of home and imported grain; to conduct research work for the Government, and to carry out official and private analyses of grain, flour, fodder stuffs, etc. Every effort will be made to investigate thoroughly the numerous problems of milling and baking.—St. Louis Post Dispatch. Good Advice. A man advertised recently in a London paper to forward, on receipt of postage stamps, "sound., practical advice, that would be applicable at any time and to all persons and conditions of life." On receipt of the stamps he sent his numerous victims the following: "Never give a boy a penny to hold your shadow while you climb a tree to look into the middle of next week." —Montreal Star. Saw-Tooth Grass Cutter. With the lawn mower of the type which is generally in use at this time N it is necessary to go over the ground a second time with grass shears or hook and cut the growth at such places as the mower fails to reach. BER OF A PRISON IN MOROCCO. Because of the size and shape of these implements it is not possible to push them up to a fence or railing, nor under low plants, so that their operation is never complete. To overcome this defect a new machine has been invented which might be likened to a circular saw revolving horizontally. The blades of this machine are driven by a crank in convenient position near the handle. This permits of a finished job being done. The knives can be pushed into remote corners or about growing plants without damaging then. Washington Star: Through Highways. During the past few years the tendency to give more attention to the construction of through good roads has been clearly apparent. Primarily, it is known that-good roads are an absolute necessity to everyone who wishes to get to the market place without waste of time and energy, and roads have been built with that idea in mind. But with the progress of the automobile and its use as a means of transportation, conditions have changed, and the through road as become a necessity. In the State of Connecticut an appropriation was first made a year or two ago for the purpose of extending the trunk lines, and it may be noted as an example of the tendency toward the establishment of a through road system that that State at the last session of her Legislature appropriated a much larger amount of money than ever to be used for this purpose. Not to be outdone by other States, Missouri has taken up the subject in earnest, and, although she has only recently become one of the State-aid States, she now proposes to build three through highways to connect St. Louis and Kansas City. Three routes were proposed, but it was not expected that the State Board of Agriculture would endorse more than one. However, so much interest and enthusiasm was manifested, and so much rivalry became apparent, that at the meeting of the board last month, the three routes were duly approved. Governor Folk is authority for the assertion that these roads, beyond question, will be built. The different counties through which the roads will pass are to take action this month with reference to providing for their share of the financial end. In Pennsylvania and in New York, the question of through roads is a thoroughly live one, and there seems little doubt but that we may soon expect to see great highways built by State aid in co-operation with the various counties and-townships. The State Highway Department of Michigan, it is said, favors the project of building a road 135 miles in length from Detroit to Saginaw and Bay City. The benefits of through roads to the various localities, such as are proposed and under way, can hardly be overestimated. With such roads traversing the States, the building of many branch roads cannot fall to be greatly stimulated—From the Good Roads Magazine. A Foc of Good Roads. Is not the Charleston News and Courier perhaps hasty in condemning the people of Spartanburg County for voting down a good roads bond issue in part because of the automobile nuisance? There are communities where good roads do not pay. If land of low value and productivity is far from markets it may be not only impossible to raise money upon it for good roads, but actually not advisable as an investment. On the other hand, in the neighborhood of good markets and through fertile and valuable land good roads do pay many times their cost. A vast number of regions where the question is really debatable lie between these extremes. Is it not natural that people living in such regions should hesitate to improve their roads because, wholly aside from the dust, annoyance and danger of automobile traffic and the brutal disregard of public rights by many motorists, the automobile from a distance, which does not help pay the tax, will surely ruin the road by tearing out the binding material between the stones and grinding the road away with chains, spikes and other devices to prevent skidding? The automobile of proper size, weight and speed ought, if properly used, to be the best friend of the good roads movement. The automobile as it is operated is becoming one of the worst enemies.—Editorial in the New York World. Oil on Roads. It is reported that the use of oil on the streets and highways of California, Kentucky and other States has met with great success. The California road men had a number of failures when they first began to use oil, but by dint of extended experiments with differing qualities of oil they hit upon the proper kinds for the various sorts of soil, and now the State has several hundred miles of oiled streets and public roads. A quality of oil that suits clay soil is not adapted to a sandy surface, and unless the mixture is of proper consistency it cracks and is ground into a disagreeable dust. This was notably the case in and around Los Angeles, where the soil is light and sandy, but after repeated experiments the right combination was found, and now the streets and roads in the city and suburbs are in fine condition, dustless, firm and "springy." In Taçoma, Seattle and other towns in the Northwest successful results have been obtained, and a material saving in repair and watering expenses has been effected.-The Motor Car. Sunflower Sentiments. Fine writing by one of the Hoxie Sentinel's correspondents: "Ah, this day closes cold and chilly; some different from those in the very mild August.

The Farm Better Farming. Dr. Bailey, of Cornell, sums up the essentials for better farming under three heads: First, give information; second, remove all unnecessary handicap; third, invigorate and inspire. As applied to the work of the experiment stations, colleges and agricultural press, the summary is complete. Roughness For Cattle. In feeding only prairie hay as roughness to fattening cattle, much larger and more profitable gains can be made if linseed meal or possibly some other protein concentrate is fed with corn in small quantity rather than feeding corn alone.—Farmers' Home Journal.

Color of Shell The color of the shell has, however, an effect upon the market value, the brown-shelled eggs bringing the higher price, for instance, in the Boston market, and the white-shelled eggs in the New York market.

When weaning the pigs, do it gradually. When a sow is giving a good flow of milk and the pigs are taken away suddenly, there is a danger of causing an inflammation of her udder which will impair her future usefulness. The better way is to cut the feed of the sow down and provide some skim milk and middlings in a run for the pigs where they can get it several times a day. By this plan the safety of the sow is assured, and the pigs will get no check in their growth. Florida Agriculturist. To Prevent Gapes. Dr. Solomon claims that those engaged in raising poultry should depend rather on prevention than cure. The efforts should be made to place the young birds on uninfected ground, or the runs should be kept thoroughly disinfected. On the first appearance of the disease remove and isolate the affected birds and take the necessary precaution to secure the destruction of all the parasites they contain. By, such measures the propagation of the worm 'will be prevented and the extension of the disease will be avoided.—Weekly Witness. Concentrated Food For Horses. Concentrated Food for Horses. When an army is on the march emergencies may arise when the ordinary ration for men cannot be conveniently transported. For such cases it is usual to provide troops with food. In a compressed form. Though changes are made from time to time in the compositions of such rations, the main idea is far from new. More novel, though, is the proposition to prepare something of the sort for cavalry horses. In Germany and England an emergency ration for such animals is being tested, and American military officers are asking whether it ought not to be adopted in this country too. A Washington dispatch says that the emergency ration for horses, put up in one pound tins, contains as much food as fourteen pounds of oats. No statement is made about the method of preparing it before it is put into the tins, or how it is made ready afterward for the horses.—Tribune Farmer. Amounts to Something. It is reported that A. E. Parr, a member of the graduating class in the Animal Husbandry Department of the Iowa Agricultural College, has just received a most excellent appointment in British India. Mr. Parr's position is that of Director of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry of British India, with headquarters at Calcutta. He will have the direction of the thirty-nine stations of that country. From a financial standpoint the position is a most excellent one, as the salary is $10,000 per year for ten years, and then a pension of $5000 per year for life. Mr. Parr received the degree of Master of Scientific Agriculture at the Iowa Agricultural College. Previous to entering the Iowa College he graduated from the Edinburgh University, Scotland, and received the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Leipzig, Germany. Dr. Parr's home is at Ashley, England, where he has gone to visit his parents before taking up his work in India. Grading Apples Manager Shepard, of the 'Hood River (Ore). Apple Growers' Union, thus explains the new system of grading apples. Three circular holes are cut in a board two three-quarter, three and three one-quarter inches in diameter and the board placed in front of the sorter, being suspended within easy reach of the hand. As the apples are wiped, their size can be quickly determined by the aid of the board, and they can be placed in three, three one-half, four or four one-half tier boxes at once instead of all being thrown in one box for the packer to resort. All apples larger or smaller than the holes in the board go into special boxes provided for them. The great advantage of this system is that the packers can pack directly from the box, or if the apples are placed on the packing table can avoid having all sizes on it at once, which means a great saving of time and the elimination of more or less bruising of the fruit in being handled over several times to get the various sizes. The less bruising they have the more the apples will bring, and when it becomes known the more buyers will be willing to pay.—Country Gentleman. Potash For Apples. Potash is perhaps the most important for fruit of all the manures. It causes healthfulness and vigor of tree or plant, and makes the fruit rich and highly colored. Wood ashes contain it, but the proportions are usually quite, small. Muriate of potash contains fully one-half of its weight of available potash, and sulphate of potash, about the same. Both are excellent and cheap forms. The sooner either of them are put in or on the soil, the more completely they will become prepared for the use of the coming fruit crop. If it is not possible to apply them to the ground now, do so early in the fall. But above all be sure to do it, for in most soils potash will pay a godd return. One hundred pounds per acre annually is a fair application of either muriate or sulphate of potash. Lime has a very beneficial effect, aside from being a plant food, in helping to dissolve the elements of fertility in the soil naturally. This is especially true of heavy clay soils, and where humus is in excess it "sweetens" its acidity. About five bishisels of quick lime per acre is sufficient for some three years.—Journal of Agriculture. A Change In Orcharding. The need of spraying fruit trees for insects and the scale pest may bring about very important changes in methods of orcharding, Years ago, when the only pest fought against was an occasional visitation of the canker worms, the size and position of the tree made comparatively little difference; but if the trees are to be sprayed from one to three times every year, and especially when they are sprayed for the very thorough work required for the destruction of the San Jose scale, large trees hard to get at become a serious handcan. Horticulturist G. T. Powell is working along lines which may need to become generally adopted for the orchards of the future. He is working for a tree not more than sixteen to twenty feet in height, and working to this end along two lines. One is the use of the regular dwarf apple tree, the other by setting standard trees and keeping them low headed by pruning. It is well known that an apple tree may be kept low down by branching close to the ground at the start and heading in the tall branches every few years. The process might shorten the life of the tree, but it would save many dollars in harvesting and spraying. For similar reasons it is no longer desirable to set fruit in locations hard to get at, such as steep hillsides, very rocky land or along fence rows or walls. Mr. Powell finds the cost of picking apples from high trees is nearly three times that of harvesting them from the low headed trees, and the loss from fruit blowing off the trees is much less from the low growing orchard.—American Cultivator. Thoroughbred and Pure Bred. Answering a question as to the difference between standard bred, thoroughbred and pure bred horses, Wallace's Farmer says: Standard bred is the name applied to the American trotting horses which conform to the standards established by the American Trotting Horse Registry, and are consequently entitled to registration in the stud book issued by that association. Thoroughbred applies to the breed of running horses, but the term is frequently used in an incorrect way in speaking of other breed of horses. For example it is not uncommon to hear the expression thoroughbred Shire, or thoroughbred Percheron, or thoroughbred Shorthorn. This is an improper use of the term. It should be used only when it is desired to refer to the thoroughbred horse as a breed. Pure bred, or pure blood, is used when it is desired to state that the animal in question is of pure breeding and entitled to registry in the stud book or herd book of that breed. For example, we speak of the pure bred Percheron, pure bred Shire, or pure bred Shorthorn or Angus, meaning that the animal is of pure breeding and is entitled to registry in the herd book of the breed to which it belongs. Post of St. Kilda—News ried in Plaster Busts Letters by airship are the latest novelty of the French postal system. Last month a party of military nauts ascended from Meudon but steered for the War Office at Paris. When over the building the airship was brought to a halt and a letter addressed to the Minister of War, Gen. Plcquart, dropped from the mantle. Through their glasses the aeronauts watched the missive in its descent, and as soon as it had been secured turned the aerostat and made their way back to Meudon. A very ingenuous method is employed to facilitate the delivery of letters to the islands of the Tonga group in the Pacific. These islands, guarded as they are by dangerous rocks and breakers, says London Te Bits, are difficult and hazardous; of near approach, and would often, were the ordinary outline of delivery employed, have to go letterless. To oblitate this the steamer that carries the malis is supplied with skyrocketets, means of which letters are projected across the danger zone onto the shore. During the winter, when St. Kilda has no direct communication with the mainland, the inhabitants deposit their letters in small buoys of a circular shape. These are then thrown into the sea, and are by the currents carried to the mainland, where they are rescued from the waves and their contents taken to the nearest post office. A floating post office, consisting of a painted cask, is attached by chains to the rocks at the extremes point of Terra del Fuego. To this strange office, which is under the joint protection of all nations, every passing ship sends a boat to post and collect letters. J. A. O'Shea relates how Bazaline during the siege of Metz, sent a message through the enemy's lines. A young Posener, who volunteered for the difficult task, had one of his teeth drawn and an artificial one, in which was a hollow, substituted. In this was placed a quill, within which was a despatch in cipher, reduced by photography to microscopic minuteness. Then, disguised as a beggar, he left the town, the sentries, to give color to the ruse, discharging blank cartridges at him as he fled. Taken prisoner by the Germans he was brought before those in authority, to whom he told such a wolfful tale of his suffering at the hands of the French that he was released, with many expressions of condolence. He duly executed his mission. When Rochefort, in consequence of his virulent attacks upon imperialism, was forced to seek refuge in Brussels he still continued to elate La Lanterne in France. How he introduced the proscribed paper into that country was a mystery to the authorities, who little suspected that in certain plaster busts of the Emperor and Empress, which reached the empire from Belgium, were carefully concealed the obnoxious sheets printed on "fimsy." The great campaign for reform in which the American people are now engaged—the greatest ever undertaken by any people—is based on the idea that there is a moral law by which men are bound, says the Indian apolis News, that conscience ought to be controlling and that men are responsible for what they do or fall to do. These truths ought to be applied to those working on the side of reform as well as to those who have, by their misdeeds, made reform necessary. & VOLUPTHARY "Im afraid," said Mrs. Oldcastle. "Mr. Harkins would have been better off if he had never inherited that money from his aunt. He is rapidly becoming a voluptuary." "Do you think so?" replied her hostess. "But mebbe he'd of got that way anyhow. Most men begin to fatten up when they get along about, his age."—Chicago Record-Herald. What a comfort to find it is not "the awful thing" feared, but only chronic indigestion, which proper food can relieve. A woman in Ohio says: "I was troubled for years with indigestion and chronic constipation. At times I would have such a gnawing in my stomach that I actually feared I had a—I dislike to write or even think of what I feared. "Seeing an account of Grape Nuts, I decided to try it. After a short time I was satisfied the trouble was not the awful thing I feared, but I was still bad enough. However, I was relieved of a bad case of dyspepsia by changing from improper food to Grape-Nuts. "Since that time my bowels have been as regular as a clock. I had also noticed before I began to eat Grape Nuts that I was becoming forgetful of where I put little things about the house, which was very annoying. "But since the digestive organs have become strong from eating, Grape Nuts, my memory is good, and I my mind as clear as when I was young, and I am thankful." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little booklet, "The Road to Wewville," in packages. "There's a Bonoon." Brooklyn, N. Y.—Dr. Nehemiah Bornton, pastor of the Clinton Avenue Congregational Church, having returned from his European trip, was in his pulpit Sunday. In the morning, greeted by a large audience, he preached on "The Will and the Work." The text was from John 4:34: "My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me and to finish His work." Among other things, Dr. Bornton said: The very essence of a rational faith in Jesus is dependent upon His being permitted to make His own impression upon one's soul as a being who met and mastered life in normal relations. If you permit your fancy to dress Him in the light fluffy and ethereal garments of an airy mysticism you add to your imagination but subtract from His reality. If you array Him in the blue and sometimes navy blue homepun of a provincial theology your philosophy aspiring to do the task of sympathy takes away half His birthright. He recedes from the heart and mind of the world! But if you allow Him to be an actual resident in life and to live in the world to which He came, to work, to wonder, to minister, to suffer, to joy and to love, you restore Him to men. Again He lives in power, and by His very mastery of life indicates His claim to be the chiefest among ten thousand. The supreme divinity of Christ, His individual and unique relation to the Father are best apprehended by setting His life in its ordinary and usual human relations, permitting it to tell its own story and make its own impression. Whether you compare Christ with the Samaritan woman or with the astonished disciples His own transcendant greatness is in distinct evidence. Here is a travel-stained, weary and thirsty pilgrim sitting by a well; there a common water carrier comes to fill his pitcher. Their interview shows at once that they are not upon the same level; they do not see life the same way. The traveller is evidently in full possession of something for which the Samaritan woman has only heart hung; something very high, noble, soul satisfying. The disciples who come as she leaves are not much above her level, so far as appreciating Christ is concerned. They wonder that He is willing to stoop to speak to such a person! They offer Him food. Hospitality is the only grace they can at present afford. "Master, eat!" How slight an appreciation they have of the really nutritive forces of life! "I have eaten. I have been refreshed," says Christ. "Can it be that anyone has offered Him lunch in our absence?" they inquire. "My meat," says Christ, "is to do he will of Him that sent Me and to help work." Here is sweet meat, indeed! Here is spiritual manna, indeed! The will and the work are the staples of that perpetual feast which alone will satisfy the higher soul-life of mankind. A first great teaching of this incident is the personal nature of real religion. One of the pathetic visions of our own day is that of multitudes trying to find a place to trust their souls. Religions which the world has outgrown are galvanized into life again and are made the depositories of restless spirits. New forms of religion have for many mighty attractions and for a time seem to satisfy the soul desire. There must be some one thing about the faith of Jesus which gives it pre-eminence over all other forms of faith, however much of fragmentary trust they embrace. And that one thing is the sense of personal relation with God. "My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me!" This is the great Christian contribution to religion. God is Father of all spirits. To connect with Him and satisfy the longness of one's deepest soul. "I know Jesus Christ," said Bushnell, "better than I know any man in the city of Hartford, and if He should be walking along the street and see me, He would say, 'There goes a friend of Mine.'" The joy, the assurance, the certainty of a Christian faith, root themselves in the sense of personal relation between the soul and God, which affords the comfort, security and inspiration of living. Jesus again is insistent in His teaching that a loyal will always expresses itself in work: "To finish His work." A personal relation with God expresses itself through a social appreciation and effort. Nobody ever travels to Heaven alone. Everybody must help carry somebody else who would mount the shining pinnacles of the city of our God. The greatest work in the world is to get one's will in play—to establish goodwill among men! There is the race question, for example. How are men of different races to be treated in free America? It is no longer a question of the colored man alone, but of the Indian, the Japanese, the Chinese as well. Indeed, it is no longer a mere American question. It is an international question, bound to become more and more imperative and vital in coming days. What is the solution? Is it in institutions of social sympathy like clubs and settlements? Is it in laws drastic and enforced? These can do something, but the real solution waits upon the will of the people, upon disposition and attitude. The deeper recognitions are in order. "A man's a man for a' that!" The nobler fellowships are due. The will of God is waiting for a larger expression over against passion, pride and prejudice! If Jesus could find in an ordinary Samaritan water carrier a soul worthy of His kindly disposition, His sympathy, His solicitude, then His followers are bound to find in every human being a spiritual relative and maintain toward all made in the image of God a brother's regard and care. Doing the will of God will always express itself in some form of social service. You will solve social problems only by-kneading-into them: the leaven of the Christian spirit, and there will be a rise in every social scale as the will of Christ is by His disciples given adequate expression. A third and final teaching of the Master in this incident concerns spiritual accomplishments. What we want, says the impatient disciple, is results! Indeed, here is a great truth, but what kind of results, pray? Are apparent returns always the indices of a true Christian progress? Is it not possible "to make a showing" which by its very luridness is only a blind to a really deplorable state of affairs? Cheap method, superficial endeavor and questionable procedure are, to be sure, dazzling temptations. Apparently they take the kingdom of Heaven by violence and bring it in. Really they are sorry apologies for a true accomplishment, which is, first of all, in the implanting of a will, a disposition. He that believeth shall not make haste! "The sower and the reaper shall rejoice together." The man who sows a spirit and the man who reaps a harvest are fellow sharers in a common joy! If Jesus is judged by the harvesting of His life, He has small tally! Two hundred souls, only, embraced His faith when He gave His life for the world. But if any true measurement attempts to estimate the realization of His life, and He is judged by the sowing of His life, then, in order to workman. He hurled a spirit in the heart of the world which has been in the world ever since, with its ever recurring seedtime and harvest. He is known among him by the splendor of His will, which ablides, rather than by the incidents of His work, which are glorious memories of the past. The will and the work, these two; but the greatest, the most harvesting of these is will, for, after all, "it is not what a man does, but would do, which exalts him;" and mighty are the spiritual accomplishments of those, no matter for apparent figures, whose hearts are stayed on Him and through Him reach loving arms to the world. The Blood of Christ. Have we outlived the efficacy of the blood of Christ, and is the tale of His Cross a sound from_which all the music has gone forever? We need the sun to day, as we have ever needed it; the wind is still the breath of health to our dying bodies; still we find in the earth the bread without which we cannot live; these are our friends of whom we never tire; can it be that the only thing of which we are weary is God's answer to our soul's deepest need? Shall we keep everything but the blood of Christ? Shall the Cross go, and the sun be left? Verily, as the sun withdrew at the sight of that Cross, and for the moment fled away, he would shine never more were that sacred tree hewn down by furious man. The blood of Christ is the fountain of immortality! The blood of Christ, it makes the soul's summer warm and beauteous! The blood of Christ, it blinds all Heaven, with its many mansions and throngs without number, in holy and indissoluble security! My soul, seek no other stream in which to drown thy resorros! My lips, speak no other song with which to charge your music! My hands, seek no other task with which to prove your energy! I would be swallowed up in Christ! I would be nalled to His Cross. I would be baptized with His Cross. I would would under the aegis of His palm that I might triumph with Him in the glory of His resurrection. O my Jesus! my Saviour! Thine heart did burst for me, and all its sacred blood flowed for the cleansing of my sin. I need it all. I need it every day. I need it more and more. I search out the innost recesses of my poor wild heart and let Thy blood remove every stain of evil. The Joy of the Lord. Some of the most precious lessons of love and trust were taught me by a poor invalid upon one of the first charges to which I was sent. She was dependent upon her friends; was a constant rheumatic sufferer, and a confirmed consumptive. She was a sanctified Scotch Presbyterian, and a monument of the power of Christ's love to soothe and cheer in suffering. While disease stuck envenomed fangs into her flesh her soul was ever in a transport of joy. "Oh!" said she, "I have not a pain or a privation. I have no suffering or sorrow but Jesus is a sharer. unrelieved. I have done our griefs and saved our sorrows; yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and His stripes we are healed."—W. S., in the Vanguard. A Prayer From the Heart. The prayer that James Murdock, the noted elocutionist, overheard President Lincoln offer in the White House, amid the dark hours of the night, was a reliable criterion of his character. It was during the most fearful time of the Rebellion. Lincoln was on his knees before the open Bible, in the agony of supplication. He cried out, so pleasingly so rowfully: "God that heard Solomon in the night, when he prayed Solomon, hear me. I cannot lead this people, I cannot guide the affairs of this nation, without Thy help. I am poor and weak and sinful. O God, who didst hear Solomon when he cried for wisdom, hear me, and save this nation."—Prayer Advocate. What Talmage Said. The Rev. T. De Witt Talmage once said: "You cannot find a great evangelistic preacher that is accomplishing any great good for Christ, who is not backed up by a praying, consecrated band of earnest church workers." 8smith Premier typewriter and one roll-top desk for each pupil.

"In the effort to regain one's footing and to get back to shore one's feet and shins are barked by the jagged stones and pebbles, and when at length one does emerge from its treacherous bosom with the lower limbs bleeding and forn, one becomes aware of a horrible tingling and burning sensation in eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth and almost every pore of the skin from the brine and bitumen which have penetrated everywhere. "Unless great care is taken the bather in the Dead Sea is liable to an eruption which breaks out all over his body and which is commonly known as the 'Dead Sea rash.'

"My son, who is now twenty-two years of age, when four months old began to have eczema on his face, spreading quite rapidly until he was nearly covered. The eczema is something terrible, and the doctors said it was the worst case they ever saw. A month his whole body and face covered, all but his feet. I now know kinds of patent medicines to no avail. At last I decided to try Cuticura, when my boy was three years and four months old, having had eczema all that time and suffering untold misery. I began to use all three of the Cuticura Remedies. He was better in two months; in six months he was well. Mrs. R. L. Risley, Piermont, N. H., Oct. 24, 1805." GOOD JUDGE.

GATTLE BLAING DECULATION PROSPERITY —Week's cleverest cartoon by Brewerton, in the Atlanta Journal. Washington, D. C.—That a time is rapidly coming when a large part of the population of this country must go without meat, just as many of the poor do in other countries, is the fact pointed to in a report on meat supply and surplus, which has recently been published by direction of Secretary Wilson, and which was written by George K. Holmes, chief of the division of foreign markets of the Department of Agriculture. Mr. Holmes does not assert that the day is near when many Americans must go hungry for meat. The facts he has set forth, however, have attracted much notice among high officials of the Department of Agriculture. They admit that his statistics tend to show a growing meat scarcity with higher meat prices. Nothing is more common in these days of prosperity than the remark that every one is eating more meat. This is not the case, according to Mr. Holmes. He has made a searching analysis of the census and other figures on meat supply, surplus and the like, and finds the stock of meat animals in the country diminishing relative to the population and the consumption per capita declining. Instead of considering cattle, sheep and swine the principal food animals, separately, Mr. Holmes, for comparative purposes, has considered them as merged into a composite animal. He finds that there was 1.043 of a composite meat animal per capita of population in 1840. The ratio declined to .860 of a composite animal in 1860, to .838 in 1880, rose to .900 in 1890, but fell more decidedly to .709 of a composite animal per individual of population in 1900. In other words, by the late enumeration there was in the country about .7 of a composite animal per capita and nearly 50 per cent. more than that in 1840. But the consumption per capita is much below the stock per capita. It is shown that exports of meat and its products, especially since 1880, have increased enormously. With a lower supply of meat animals in the country per capita than formerly and with exports of meat growing, the tendency is for the consumption of meat at home to grow less and less. Taking 1840 for comparison and placing the ratio of the consumption of meat animals to population then at 100, the ratio falls to 72.4 in 1880, followed by a rise to 79.4 in 1890, and by a great fall, to 59.3 in 1900. In other words, compared with 1840, each individual in the country is, on the average, eating about three-fifths as much meat. From 1890 to 1900 the domestic consumption stock of meat animals declined almost exactly one-fourth per capita of the population. At the Department of Agriculture there is going on a good deal of study of Mr. Holmes' report, with a view to ascertaining how his facts bear on the present high prices of meat. One of the foremost officials of the department, who has been looking into the meat situation with care, said that the population was that this country had seen the last of low prices; that the tendency of the future would be for meat prices to rise even higher than they were now; that the amount of meat per capita in the country would keep growing lower as the population increased, and consequently that prices would tend upward, and that more and more the family of small means would have to go without meat, using it much more seldom than at present. This official also pointed out that the difficulty of getting farm help was constantly growing, but that the population of the country was constantly enlarging. This means a less number of live stock relatively and more people to make a demand on the supply. In addition, high meat prices abroad are drawing an increasing export of meat and meat products away from the country. WOMAN POSED AS MAN FOR 60 YEARS Trindad, Col. — Charles Vaubaugh, alias Katherine Vosbaugh, a woman who for sixty years passed as a married man, and was a bank clerk and sheep herder, died at San Rafael Hospital from old age. She was born in France eighty-three years ago, and came to America when eighteen years of age, relying upon her own energies to make her living. She found that she was greatly handicapped because of her sex. After wandering around the country for two years as a woman she adopted male garb and applied for a man's position. She obtained employment in Joplin, Mo., and worked there as a bookkeeper for several years. All this time she kept her secret, and no one doubted that she was a man. She possessed an excellent education, and while she was in Joplin she was offered a position in a St. Joseph (Mo.) banking house. She accepted this, going to St. Joseph before she was thirty years of age. A few months later a young woman of that town was deserted by the man who had promised to marry her. Miss Vosbaugh sought her out, proposed marriage and was accepted. To this girl Miss Vosbaugh divulged her sex on a Bible pledge that she would never reveal the secret. After their marriage they came to Trindad and opened a restaurant. A year later she wrote "write" disappeared. The "husband" declared he had been deserted and refused to make any effort to find her. Miss Vosbaugh received more or less sympathy at the time, but the incident was soon forgotten. Tring of city life and always fearing her secret would be discovered, Miss Vosbaugh forty years ago sought employment at the Sam Brown ranch, near Trinchera. She asked for work as a sheep herder, and this was given to her. Later, when she knew that her sex could not be discovered except by the greatest of accidents, she accepted work as a camp cook. She remained at the Sam Brown ranch until two years ago, when she was brought to San Rafael Hospital here to spend her last days. Even here she protected her secret, refusing to take a bath until she was assured by the sisters at the hospital that she could do so without the presence of attendants. Some time later she contracted a severe cold that threatened to develop into pneumonia. Dr. T. J. Forham said it would be necessary for "Mr. Vosbaugh" to partially remove his clothing for an examination. Fearing she would die, Miss Vosbaugh at last reluctantly consented, and then, with tears welling in her eyes and coursing down her wrinkled cheeks, she called for the sister in charge and parted with her secret for the second time in sixty years. Viceroy Lord Minto Says It is Im- possible to ignore India's unrest. Simla, India. — The Legislative Council adopted a bill designed to prevent sedentious gatherings. It empowers the provincial authorities to prohibit public meetings. Lord- Minto, the Viceroy, in a speech, in support of the bill, said it was impossible to ignore the warnings of recent months—the riots; the insults to Europeans, and the attempts to infame racial feeling. Insane Soldiers From Philippines Will Be Brought to Washington. San Francisco.-Seventeen insane patients, belonging to the United States Army, who were brought from the Philippine Islands to the Presidio General Hospital, will be taken to the Army Hospital for the Insane, at Washington. Colonel Geo. H. Torney, Deputy Surgeon-General, will have charge of them. A car has been especially-arranged for the convenience of the patients. Doolares That Greenbacks Are the Thing Needful—is Invited to the White House by Teddy. Hon. Thomas E. Watson has some pronounced views on the present financial situation, which he will communicate to President Roosevelt at a white house luncheon on Monday, December 9. Just a few days ago Mr. Bryan called on the president and outlined a plan for government guarantee of deposits in national banks. Now, Mr. Watson, one time a candidate for president, has been requested by the president to come to Washington, and has accepted the invitation. When he was found in his work den on the second floor of his handsome home on the outskirts of Thomson, Ga., by a staff correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution, Watson was asked if his contemplated visit had anything to do with the president's investigation into financial relief measures. "President Roosevelt and I have had some correspondence on the financial situation," he repiled, "and I have been asked to come to Washington for a personal interview and shall accept." In discussing various phases of the financial situation and recent suggestions of amendments to our financial laws, Mr. Watson was asked what he thought of Mr. Bryan's proposal. He said: "The idea that the government shall become guarantor for bank deposits is a monstrous proposition so long as the national banking system exists. "The only way in which the government should guarantee deposits is by establishing postal savings banks. When the government has the handling of the deposits, the government can well afford to guarantee them, but when such ravenous treasury footers as Harriman, Ryan, Belmont, Helinze, Morse and company are in control of the big national banks, how can any man who claims to be a Jeffersonian democrat advocate a government guarantee of deposit? "This recent Bryan interview sent out from Washington clearly shows him to be an opportunist. He is catching at every plausible proposition that bobs up. If he were more of a serious student and not quite so much of a whirlwind talker, he would avoid some startling errors. "This last proposition commits him to the national banking system-and to a close alliance between the Wall street money power and the government." On being asked what he would say to the president in regard to changes in the financial laws, Mr. Watson declared he would give some idea of what a "gonulne Jeffersonian democrat" thinks of the situation which he characterized as calamitous. He believes this can best be done in a face-to-face, man-to-man talk. He declared there was no political significance whatever in the visit, and said: "I will earnestly press upon the president the danger of an asset currency to be issued by the national banks, and will urge him to recommend to congress an act amedulatory to the act of 1862 authorizing the issuance of at least one billion dollars of green-backs." Mr. Watson believes these, civil war acts are still good law. GREAT PROHIBITION CRUSADE. Planned to Move State of New York Into "Dry" Column. Cheered by what they believe the beginning of the greatest temperance revival the country has ever seen, the prohibitionists of New York state are planning a crusade to move the state into the "dry" column. A state ticket will be put in the field, and the campaign to elect a legislature, which will pass a prohibition law next year, is being planned. STOBHAR FOUND QUILTY Of Embezzling $7,500 from the Seaboard Air Line. After deliberating sixteen hours in the ease of the state against J. N. Strobbar at Galnesville, for the alleged embezzlement of $7,500 of the Seaboard Air Line railroad funds, the jury rendered a verdict of guilty. This was a hard fought trial in several courts in Canada, Georgia and Florida. AN AUTOMOBILE DECISION. Owners Not Responsible When Machine is in Discreet Hands. In a decision handed down by the Georgia court of appeals it is held that the owners of an automobile cannot be held liable for damage which occurs from that machine when in the hands of persons old enough to be discreet and responsible in the eyes of the law, when the machine is out of the possession of the owners without their knowledge or consent.

Worshipful masters, you are about at the end of your term, can you truthfully say that your lodge has shown progress along every line for good? If you cannot say so, then you have failed to do your duty fully. Read the Grand Master's proclamation at your meetings, as requested. The lodges have forgotten, seemingly, to forward the two dollars for the repairing of the home. Do not forget this important matter. Forward the sum at once to the grand secretary. There seems to be a friendly rivalry among some of the lodges as to which one will send in the largest per cent of membership to the Relief Association. This speaks well for the fine spirit that exists. One dollar from each member is to be forwarded to Brother W. C. Thomas, Atlanta, Ga., after your meeting in December. Let every lodge do its full duty. Nothing but endowment is the talk the state over. The thoughtful brethren are glad to welcome it, and are uniting in making it a big success. The grand lodge of South Carolina meets December 10. Following is a copy of the call and the names of the elective officers: Bennettsville, S. C., Nov. 9, 1907. Dear Sir and Brother: The fortiest annual communication of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge F. A. M. of South Carolina will be held in Bennettsville, at high twelve, December 10 (second Tuesday), 1907. We very much desire that your lodge be represented. Reduced rates on the certificate plan will be given. That is, you pay one full fare to Bennettsville, S. C., and get a certificate from the agent, which when signed by the grand secretary, will entitle you to return for one-third fare, plus 25c. You will please find enclosed a blank for your report, make it out and forward it, and the amount due the grand lodge to E. J. Sawyer, Bennettsville, S. C., at once. Yours fraternally, C. C.

Sir: Please allow me space in the Masonile columns of The Tribune to say that we delivered the warrant of Sale City Lodge No. 267 on last Saturday. We had a grand time on this occasion. We are now proud to say that every member of the lodge seems to take a new step. We hope to have our hall completed by our last meeting in December if nothing serious happens. We were at Cotton Bloom lodge on last Friday night. W. M.J. H. Hubbard is the right man in the right place: He has completely remodeled his hall and had it insured. The craft at this place seem to still be in good spirit, and is working along smoothly. There is a great number of Cotton Bloom's members, building homes in Pelham. Bother Joe Berch, one of the members, is just completing a handsome two-story home on Church street. We spent the night with the W. M. at his palatial home just outside of the town limits, and had a nice time. Yours fraternally, B. S. SANCHIOUS, W. M., Sale City Lodge No. 267. R. F. D.

THOMAS, W. M., Proxy. H. A. Slaughter, Secretary. T. E. M. HITS. BACK AT. PRESIDENT WRIGHT. Editor Tribune: Week before last I sent you an article for publication about the late state fair. You saw it to boll it down to such an extent that I could hardly recognize it. If you had published the article in its entirety, Professor Wright would not have been able to give the tirade that was printed last week; he would have had to make an attack in another direction. He seems to have a grievance against you, in fact the article showed it. Professor Wright, in his tirade, not only substantiated my assertions, but made matters worse for himself. I charged him with being the "whole thing" at the fair, and he admitted it by saying that the association empowered him so to act. The association must be composed of babies who are unable to act for themselves. He has reflected on the entire colored population of the state by asserting that there is only one young woman of the race in the state who is capable to be a stenographer and typewriter. Pray let us know how much business is involved in the fair association that it requires the attention of a stenographer the entire year at a salary of $25 per month. Would any other stockholder's daughter, matters not how competent she may be. have been thus employed? Again, he made a worse reflection on the old and young manhood of the race to admit that there is not one worthy of trust and with ability to have done the work that Professor Wright's son did at the fair, Just the idea that a man had to be imported to Georgia to do a work that no man in the state is capable of doing. It has billed down to this fact that there is but one family in Georgia able to successfully run a state fair. All others are pigmies in mind, etc. Professor Wright tells us that his son-in-law was not his son-in-law when the State Fair Association was open. the State Fair Association was organized. If all of his other assertions are like this one, it is needless for the people to be burdened further, because they would put the proper brand on everything that Professor Wright has said. If his son-in-law was not his son-in-law when the state fair was organized, surely he was an aspirant for that kinship. But what are the facts? The secretary became his son-in-law in September, 1905, and the fair association was temporarily organized in March, 1906, and permanently organized after the charter was granted in April, 1906. Who is right, Professor Wright, or the records? No one was anxious to handle the "cash," the people only wanted a tab kept on Professor Wright who handled all of the "cash" during the fair and who did not turn it over to the treasurer until January of 1907. The fair was held in November. Was Professor Wright under bond to keep; this money for two months in his possession? Suppose he had died in the meantime; the fair association would have been minus several thousand dollars. Professor Wright is now under bond to handle the stockholders' money, and I am willing to wager my neck on a chopping block that he nor his secretary or treasurer have given a bond. Does not his law require a bond for handling of moneys? But who knows the law? What stockholder has seen a law? No, Professor Wright, I am not a "sorehead," nor are those "soreheads" who are anxious for a proper conducting of the state fair and will not allow you to leave the main issue by using abusive words. You are to be credited for leading in the movement for a state fair, but if it were not for the noble efforts of your associates, your fair would have died a-borning. We are not able, nor willing to conduct a fair, but we are willing and will aid you in making this one a big success, if you do the proper thing. He further states in his article that all debts are paid and that the fair last year was a success. You know, Professor Wright, that it was not a financial success and that you have not paid all debts. You know that all over the state exhibitors are clamoring for premiums that you promised them, but they are still waiting on your promise. If it was a success, why did you take the stockholders' money to pay them back in dividends? Don't Professor Wright and his directors know that juggling with figures that way in an incorporated body is liable to give one one trouble? If the fair was a success, why was the more than $4,000 that the common people gave Professor Wright for shares dwindled down to less than $2,000? What has become of this money? Professor Wright has invited me and the "soreheads" to organize an association of our own; we are not going to do so, professor; but if we do and were elected president, we would not put our family in charge of the best salaried positions; we would not usurp all of the positions; we would constantly confer with our directors and carry out whatever they pass upon and not be despotic; we would give public notice of stockholders' meetings as ob- talms in all we bodies. By the w holder been any pro meeting? Yet the officers are elected by the stockholder dear stockholders that we were not able to elect theircers and directors, but gave Professor Wright the power to do so. Who ever heard of a well organized body, doing a thing of the kind? If you wish to keep this up, Professor Wright, I am willing; I can turn the light in another direction, beh There is plenty of ammunition. Yours for the "soreheads" and those who want to handle the "cash, T. E, M. We have on our desk several articles criticizing the management of the state fair. We see no good at present in publishing them. For that reason they are not published.-Editor. CHAIRMAN IS CORRECTED. General Counsel Joseph B. Cummings of the Georgia road has made a warm reply to the letter recently sent him by Chairman McLendon of the Georgia state railroad commission, in which the chairman declared that the "Georgia road was not an outlaw." In his letter Major Cummings says the chairman has set up a man of straw and valiantly knocked him down, has made several misstatements about his letter, and then takes up the "outlaw" statement. "Hon. S. G. McLendon, chairman railroad commission—Dear Sir: I have this morning your letter of yesterday for which please accept my thanks. The purpose of my letter of November 14th to which yours is a reply was to get the name of the civil engineer who examined the Georgia railroad. This purpose was natural, and, leitit mate, and was supported by Feasons which seemed to me to be proper, and not wholly without merit. "You decline to give this information at present. I was prepared in a measure for this declination by having observed of late that the railroad commission or rather, you, its chairman, are disposed to render its great powers more appealing by enveloping its acts in portentous mystery. Having discharged, though without success, my undertaking, as legal adviser of the Georgia railroad, to get the name of the examiner, and investigators of the railroad's property, I shall now in the freedom of our long and pleasant acquaintance and mutual regard, make, in my personal capacity, some observations on your letter. "You say I contend that the Georgia railroad commission has no right amine the property of the Geor-road without the knowledge of some officer of that com- "Now, my dear sir, I really you charge me, as you do in tence, with sheer idolcy, and it, I do deny that I have ever contended for anything so absurd. You, your sel, make haste to admit that I do not say this in terms, but you add that I do say it in substance: "I deny this with equal positiveness and challenge the production or any part of my letter susceptible, by any possibility, of such construction. "You have, in reply to my alleged 'contention,' brilliantly refuted a proposition which no one has ever propounded. "You have set up a man of straw and vallantly knocked him down." I am amazed that one who feels himself burdened with the regulation of nearly all things, great and small, between heaven and earth, can find time for this old, but, but, harmless, pastime. You are good enough—mercilful enough. I may say—to warn me in advance, not in perfect frankness," that disobedience to the reasonable regulations, and orders of this commission' will render the Georgia railroad an outlaw." "What is an outlaw? A person who is put out of the protection of the law. Thus we have it distinctly stated that disobedience of a rule of the commission—reasonable' in the opinion of the commission—closes the courts to the railroads. "A citizen of Georgia may commute murder, may embezzle, may forge, may steal—in every instance violating the law of the state—but the court hear him in his defense; he is not outlaw. It takes disobedience to the commission to reduce the disobedience to the condition of the Caput Lusitania. "My dear sir, you must as time goes of the responsibility for this longer letter; for if you had not, in a certain your letter, written me down as soon I would not have thought it necessary to answer it. What has become of denounced or cohort? asks the Memphis. Comment- Appeal. Wasn't it expected to be lot of machinery in motion?
