The president's announcement was received with cheers by governors and delegates. "I was compelled to bring this commission into existence myself," said the president. "I asked congress to propriate a sufficient amount of money for that purpose. Congress did not see fit to do so. Next I have asked congress for a sufficient sum of money to perpetuate the inland waterways commission. If congress does not appropriate the money I will perpetuate the commission myself." The president was interrupted by the cheers and applause which greeted his frank awaoval of degance. As soon as it had subsided the president added: "Of course, it would be better for congress to act, but if it does not I will perpetuate the commission."

C. White and John Mitchell were the speakers. Mr. Carnegie took for his subject, "Ores and Related Subjects."

Towns, Which Lay in Path of Twister, Suffered Greatly--College Buildings Wrecked. Omaha, Neb.—Twelve persons are known to have been killed and twenty injured by a tornado which swept over the northern part of Sarpy county Tuesday afternoon.

The storm then moved on to Louisville, Richfield and Springfield, where the principal damage and loss of life occurred The storm was the most severe that ever struck eastern Nebraska. The damage done to the college buildings at Bellevue was heavy. The tower was blown from Park hall and the building wrecked. Lowry hall and Rankin hall were unroofed. The panic-stricken students run to the basement, and in this way many fatalities were probably averted. The college stables were wrecked, and all the horses killed. A number of small buildings and stores in the village were blown down. Moving south the tornado struck Ft. Crook, damaging several of the barracks buildings, but nobody was injured. In the town of Ft. Crook, however, a number of buildings were entirely wrecked and other damage done.

A remarkable scene was enacted when the officer's realized that a tornado had struck the post. Six hundred troopers of the sixteenth regiment were brought to battalion formation, and, in the midst of flying slate roofs and other debris, they were matched across the parade ground to the substantial buildings, where they were plum at "rest," and took to the cellars. The roofs of several of the large buildings were blown off. METHODISTS IN DEBATE. Conference in Baltimore is Enlivened by Many Features. Baltimore.

Members of the Louisville conference would like to see New Orleans named as a residence and those from the Atlanta conference hope that city will be chosen.

Get sleeping car reservations and full information from any SEAOARD Agent, or write to The Heroes of the Life-saving Service LL through the night the surfmen are patrolling the beach at Monomoy, as they do from Quoldy Head to Cape Florida, meeting in the little shanty on a sand-dune called Half-way House to tell one another the news of the hour, and to exchange the numbered brass tags by which the captains may know that the watch has gone faithfully to the end of his post. For ten months in the year the vigilance is not relaxed. During June and July the crews are rewarded for their year's labor by the gift of a generous vacation—without pay. They may fish or farm or do what they will for a living. The captains then sit, each one alone, in the life-saving stations, and if any ship is foolish enough to get wrecked at this time, when, according to the rules of Uncle Sam, there should be neither storm nor wreck, the nearest captain picks up a scratch crew of fishermen and other longshore folk and does the best he can to save lives. Storms and wrecks do occur now and then in these periods, but they really should not; and, therefore, Congress in its wisdom refuses to keep the life-savers on duty. From the wisdom of Congress there is no appeal. Truly, there must be all the fascination of a game in this serene and skilful contest with raging Death. It cannot be the bait of wages that attracts these heroes to the service. The captains receive $800 a year, and the surfmen $50 a month. During the two months of unpaid vacation they get $3 apiece for each occasion of service. No; there is no money lure in this game. The service requires men of perfect health and strength. Whenever the surgeon discovers surfman or captain to have fallen below perfect condition, he is incontinently put out, no matter how many years he may have spent in lifesaving. And there is no persion. Mr. Kimball, the superintendent of the department, has tried again and again to persuade Congress to grant pensions to these men, but Congress in its wisdom has always said no. And from the wisdom of Congress there is no appeal—Harper's Magazine. Advertise in Your Home Paper For the Very Best Results.

There was absolutely no real cause for this panic which, for a time, played havoc in the financial world. It was started by gamblers and promoters, who were posing as bankers; men who used sacred trust assets to rlg the stock market, and to promote their own schemes generally. This financial storm came out of a clear sky, and when we were enjoying unusual prosperity. Capital was well employed; comparatively few people were out of work in the entire country. Almost any one, with any sort of ability, who was willing to work, could find employment. There was no extended economic disturbances anywhere, and the business of our marvelous country was never in better condition. In all parts of the United States level-headed, conservative business men are most optimistic. Representative business men, prominent merchants and manufacturers in different parts of the country have been interviewed, and they say that business was never more satisfactory, that the volume this year will greatly exceed that of last year. The demand for a better, higher class of goods is quite general all over the country; the demand on wholesale houses for spot and future goods is better than a year ago. Collections are good, and business promises to be as large as last year's. In the West, business is reported better than ever before. A large western merchant says: "Formerly we kept pretty close watch of the stock market, for any serious trouble there was sure to affect our business, especially in high-priced goods. Now, we pay no attention to the stocks. Too many people have the money to buy what they want. Wall street slumps make no impression upon our trade." Bank clearings show a marked increase over those of 1906, itself a record year. The gross earnings of railroads tell the same story of general prosperity in even a more marked degree than the banks.—From Success. The Taste of Tin By Dallas Lore Sharp. MAN may live in the city and buy a squash and eat it. That is all he can do with a boughten squash, for a squash that he cannot raise, he cannot store, nor take delight in outside of pie. And can a man live where his garden is a grocery? his storehouse a grocery? his bins, cribs, mows, and attics so many pasteboard boxes, bottles, and tin cans? Tinned squash pie may taste like any squash pie; but it is no longer squash; and is a squash nothing if not pie? Oh, but he gets a lithograph squash upon the can to show him how the pulp looked or God made it. This is a sop to his higher sensibilities; it is a commercial reminder, too, that life even in the city should be more than pie—it is also the commercial way of preserving the flavor of the canned squash, else he would not know whether he were eating squash or pumpkin or sweet potato. But then it makes little difference, all things taste the same in the city—all taste of tin.—The Atlantic.

A Extends the Mayor's and Council's Terms to Two Years. Application for a change in the present city charter of the city of Eatonton will be made at the next meeting of the General Assembly in Atlanta in June. Among the most important changes are those requiring registration for city elections, extending the mayor and city council's terms from one to two years, and giving the city the right to prohibit the sale of liquor by ordinance in Eatonton in the event the present prohibition law shall ever be repealed. A board of water commissioners is also created and a board of tax assessors is also to be a new feature. The present city charter was secured in 1879 and is considered badly out of date. Under the new charter the mayor is to be given the right of pardon and also the right to lease out city convicts. As a matter of interest-regarding the effects of the working of the prohibition law in Putnam the city court dockets show only four cases of drunkenness arrested during the four months just passed, whereas twenty-five cases were made during the previous four months. A contract has been let by the city of Eatonton for the construction of a new sedimentation basin at the pump house with a capacity of 170,000 gallons. From this basin the water will pass through the filter by gravity, all chemicals being used in the basin instead of the filter. SOL. C. JOHNSON Notary Public.

As long as the forest stream shall live, The streams shall flow onward, still Sweet songs of the woodland, and bring- ing The bright living waters that give New life to all mortals who thirst; But the races or men shall be cursed. Yes, the hour of destruction shall come To the children of men in that day When the forest shall pass away; When the low woodland voices are dumb; And death's devastation and dearth Shall be spread over the face of the earth. Avenging the death of the wood, The turbulent streams shall outpour The vials of wrath, and no more. Shall their banks hold back the high flood, Which shall rush over the harvests of men; As swiftly receding again. Let' after the flood shall be dearth, And the man no longer shall fall On the parched earth; As of ashes, shall cover the earth; And dust-clouds shall darken the sky; And the deep water well shall be dry. And the rivers shall sink in the ground, And every man cover his mouth From the thickening dust, in that drought. Dierce famine shall come; and no sound Shall be hone on the desolate air But a murmur of death and despair. Alexander Blair Thaw, in the Century. Victoria, radiant and decorated with huge new tissue paper "hair ribbons," met her father at the elevated station with a hug that threatened to strangle him. "Well, but you are a beauty," said he, admiringly. "I don't think many fathers have such stylish little daughters." "Yes, and I am good, too," said Victoria, seriously. "I only whispered a few times in school to-day and then Miss Lucy didn't see me. I got praised for my alto, too. Miss Lucy said she never heard such awful alto in her whole life except mine, and I had two notes right." She looked up, waiting for approval. "So, of course, you're happy," said her father. "But, papa," Victoria went on, "that dreeffe little bulldog that Billy got from Mrs. White hasn't been doing a thing. Why, he is the worst little dog you ever saw! He et every bit of the sausage that uncle sent us and he wasn't full then. After that he et mamma's book that she left on the sofa a minute and she doesn't know which girl the man married. She was so mad that she hit Spotty with her slipper. but he didn't care—he just went and et the slipper. It was all over the parlor floor and Mrs. Brown came in and mamma thought she would just drop because Mrs. Brown is so pertikler and always says things about the way people's houses aren't clean. She looked up to see what effect her revelations were having on her father. His look of exaggerated horror satisfied her. "And maybe Jack isn't mad at him, too!" said Victoria. "He sat on Jack's best shirt that he was going to wear to a party to-night, and there wasn't any other one clean. Pulled it off the chair when Jack put it there a minute and sat on it. Jack said things and chased him under the bed and tried to get him out with the umbrella and dust—burst, I mean—his suspenders, but Spotty didn't care. He hopped over the umbrella as cunning as anything. He thought Jack was playing with him. If Jack wasn't so big I think he would have cried." Her father's inclination to laugh was nipped in the bud by the next revelation. "And, papa. you know those lovely cigars you hid so the boys wouldn't get them." Well, Spotty got them." Her father looked astonished. "How could he get them from behind all the things on the closet floor?" he asked. "Some one must have taken them out." "No, papa; he got them out with his nose and walked all over them and shook them up till he swallowed a piece and then he ran away and bid. I guess he was kind of sick, but Billy wouldn't let mamma get him to whip him—said he would take the licking." "Billy has got to keep that pup tled up until he teaches him to behave," said Victoria's father. "I think the best thing would be to take him back to Mrs. White. If Billy can't take the proper care of him he deserves to lose him." "I thought you'd think that," said Victoria, her face one gleam of light, "so I gave him to Gladys. I put him in a basket and took him over." "But what did Billy say to that high-handed proceeding?" asked her father. "He didn't say anything; he doesn't know it. Mamma says she thinks he will go and get Spotty back." "What did you give the pup to Gladys for?" "Gladys gave Molly her best blue penell with the point sharpened because Molly was going to hit me when Elizabeth told her I said something I never said." "Haven't I told you to keep away from that Elizabeth?" demanded Victoria's father. "Hasn't she got you into enough trouble?" "Yes, papa, I truly try to keep away from her, but nobody can. She's always there wherever you are. And, papa, you won't let Billy take the dog back, will you?" Gladys won't say I was an Indian giver. "Give a thing, take a thing, never go to heaven, then," quoted Victoria lah shocked tones. "No," said her father. "I think Gladys may have the dog. I'll take Billy out to, Fox Lake with me next week and that will comfort him. I was going to take you, Vicky, but poor Billy will feel so bad about that little pup that he deserves a special treat." Two big tears splashed down Victoria's cheek. "I think, papa, I'll go over and tell Gladys' mamma what a bad little dog Spotty is, and then maybe she will make Gladys give him back." "No, no, daughter, we won't do that; think how terrible it would be to be an Indian giver!" "But, papa, if she gave him back herself—" Her sob was straggled by the sight of Billy coming down the street, holding as tight as possible Spotty, while that treasured beast alternately licked Billy's face and struggled to get down. "Do you know what that kid did, pa?" Billy's voice was shrill with indignation. "Went and gave my dog away 'thout asking anybody. But I went and got him. I bet she'd give him to the dog ketcher; that kid has more nerve!" "Oh, Billy, I wouldn't; I'm so glad you got him back! I was going to ask Gladys to give him back, wasn't I, papa? I think he's the dearest, cuteest, cunningest little lovey in the world." She hugged boy and dog until Billy, looking very suspicious, commanded her to quit. "What day are we going to Fox Lake?" asked Victoria, skipping by her father's side—Chicago News. TRICKS OF ARMORY RUNNERS. Little Devices of Board Floor Athletes to Run With. Spikes. "In the armories around the city," said the athlete, "before the Governor shut down on the continuous use of them for athletic games, the runners used to compete a great deal. After a while Colonels issued orders forbidding spiked shoes. "Now, some of the tracks on the board floors, were very small, and in the sprint races those who didn't wear the short indoor spikes were very much at a disadvantage. They used to try all sorts of devices. "One favorite trick was to put a spiked shoe on the right foot. That, being on the outside away from the pole, gave something to brace against in scrambling around the turns. "The clerk of the course was supposed to make an examination of the shoes of each runner as he stood on his mark before the race was run. In most cases he went to the runner and said, 'Let's see your shoes.' "The man put up his left foot, showing a plain, rubber soled shoe. Then the clerk said, 'All right,' never thinking to look at the other shoe, and the man got away with it in that manner. However, the clerks found out about it after a while, and then started to look at both feet. "Some men beat that by answering to their names when they were called for the heats and then stepping off the track for a moment as if to talk to friends watching the races. When the starter said, 'Take your marks,' they hopped back and ran in the race all right with their spiked shoes. "Then after they won the heat or the race they ran right on to the dressing rooms and changed their shoes, reporting to the judges at the finish later, still out of breath, in regulation shoes, but willing to take the calldown they got for not reporting to be checked off in time. Finally inspectors on the turns who got so that they could tell the sound of the spikes queered that game, and eventually before the many sets of games were cut off the runners almost universally obeyed the rules."—New York Sun. Burnt Sugar an Antiseptic. The custom of burning sugar in a sickroom is very current among all classes in France, but up to the present has been regarded by scientists as one of those harmless and useless practices which are rather tolerated than insisted upon by the medical profession. But M. Trillat, of the Pasteur Institute, now assures us that formic aldehyde is given off by burning sugar and is one of the most antiseptic gases known. Five grams of sugar having been burned under a ten-liter bell glass, the vapor was allowed to cool. Vials containing the bacilli of typhoid, tuberculosis, carbon, etc., were then introduced. Within half an hour every microbe had succumbed. Again, if sugar be burned in a closed vessel containing rotten eggs or putrid meat the disagreeable smell disappears. M. Trillat affirms that the formic aldehyde combines with the gases given off by the putrid animal matter and renders them inodorous.—Practical Druggist. Chamois Maker is a Magician. Most everybody uses chamois, and everybody imagines it comes from the graceful goats of the Swiss Alps. But it doesn't. It really hails from the cavernous depths of tanneries of Peabody, in New England. Peabody tanners make beautiful leather of sheep pelts. The chamois maker is a magician of the leather trade. To his doors he draws sheepskins from the great ranches of Montana, or their possible future rivals on the plains of Siberia, the pampas of Argentina, or the fields of Australia. Mary's little lamb, masquerading as brave Swiss chamois, has a wonderful career.—New York World. LIVING "IN THE CHEAP." It is Unattractive to the Average American. The "old fellows' invasion" in the Latin Quarter in Paris is discussed by a correspondent as a peculiar feature of life in the French capital. Many middle-aged American business men and Englishmen, it is stated, suddenly abandon work and money making to drop out of sight and reappear as Bobemlans. Many of them have only enough money to pay their bills at modest hotels, or pensions, and some of them live in lodgings, eating the questionable food and drinking the watery wines of the cheap cafes. Their compensation for living an aimless, hand-to-mouth existence is that they are emancipated from the grind of the office and from such responsibilities as attach to being a person well known in a community. One American, who sunk all of his capital in an annuity of $20 a week, is pictured as the most contented and light-hearted of men. He professes to know more about French, Swiss and Italian boarding houses at "under a dollar a day" than any English-speaking man in Europe. All of the sunniest corners on the Continent where a poor man may nestle in contentment and revel in freedom from care, at less than $7 a week, are parts of his pre-empted territory. Hear this philosopher upon a poor man's paradise in Holland: "I know a boarding farm with the use of a horse, a piano and a boat, with table beer and coffee after meals, at $4 a week." Another haven of refuge and rest: "I can take you to a green-bowered white-as-snow cottage on the banks of the Adriatic, where delicious pink wines, a different fish every day in the week," fruits, galore, goat's milk, cheese, bread and cake, and all the honey you want, come to what we call in America, "six bits a day." All of this seems alluring in print. It is, doubless, appealing in fact, to many English remittance men and to a few Americans, but of the millions who work in this country until they reach middle life there will never be, many whose ideals of happiness will ever be realized in a third-rate Paris pension, or who will find contentment eating bread and cheese and drinking goat's milk by the shores of the Adriatic at an expense of six bits a day and the loss of their identity, their opportunities, their home ties and their friends in America. There would be less nervous exhaustion and heart disease in America if a higher percentage of Americans would be contented with moderate incomes and be happy after middle life with bread and cheese and honey and table beer, although there might be fewer skyscrapers, railroads and other visible manifestations of American restlessness, energy and constructive genius and there might be more real happiness per capita among American men. But water will run up hill sooner than the average American will find happiness in idleness and contentment in living within an income of $20 a week, while he has enough of his lifespan left, to burn a part of it each day in pursuing the elusive dollar. —Louisville Courier-Journal. Big Maine Pine. There are evidently some big pine trees left up in the northwestern part of the State. Here is a description of one of them sent by C. W. Edgerly, of Old Town, sealer at the number camp of Flavien Choumard, on the northwest branch of the St. John River. This pine had three branches, and the tree was three feet ten inches through at the butt-log. From the tree were taken but two butt logs, each sixteen feet long, and four logs fourteen feet long were taken from each of the branches. The top log was thirteen inches through at the top. All of these logs were sound white pine. Besides these logs one piece eight feet long at the forks of the branches was left in the woods. Fourteen logs from one pine is certainly a good record, and shows, that all the monarchs of the forest from which Maine takes her name of the Pine Tree State, are not gone yet.—Bangor Commercial. The Silkworms Upon attaining full growth, the silkworm becomes restless, stops feeding and throws out silken threads. The silk is formed in a fluid condition and issues from the body of the worm in a glutinous state—apparently in a single thread. From this silk the worm constructs its cocoon, an interval of, from three to five days being required to complete its imprisonment in the envelope. In order that the silken strands may not be subjected to the danger of breakage by the moth emerging from the cocoon, the cocoons are steamed till the enclosed insects are dead. After this the silk may be wound off—The American. Missouri School With One Pupil, Worth County has a school district that we believe cannot be duplicated in the entire State. It is District 2, 65, 33, Greene township. There are only three children of school age in the district, and only one of them is attending the home school, the other two attending elsewhere. The teacher is paid $22 a month to teach this one pupil, and there is no doubt about the child getting good instruction. A district that will keep school open for the benefit of one child and pay a teacher $22 per month must certainly be loyal to the cause of popular education.—Grant City Times. Atlanta Will Immediately Reconstruct Burned Section. CLEANING AWAY THE RUINS The Burned District as a Renting Proposition Netted $150,000 a Year in Rents. Work of rebuilding the burnt district of Atlanta, bounded by Madison avenue, Nelson, Forsyth and Mitchell streets, will be begun immediately. S. M. Iman, owner of the Terminal hotel and the Inman block and the heaviest loser by the fire announced that he would rebuild and that the work of reconstruction would be undertaken at once. The Atlanta Brewing and Ice company, the next heaviest losers, and owners of the Terminal station annex and the Marion annex, through President Albert Steiner, stated that the work of replacing these buildings would be begun at once. Dahney H. Scoville, who leased the Marion annex, and owned the three handsome stores adjacent, stated it was his firm intention to replace these buildings with duplicates, or, perhaps handsomer buildings, at once. George McCarty, who lost a building between the two hotels, will rebuild at once, too. This takes up the list of property owners in the burnt district, and each has signified his intention of rebuilding at once. It is estimated that the burnt district, as a renting proposition, netted $150,000 a year in rents. The loss of this rent is an appreciable item when it is considered there were long leases on all of the stores, hotels and factories. Many of those who were burned out have arranged for leases in the buildings to be erected. The burn-out branch of the Central Bank and Trust corporation, at the corner of Mitchell and Forsyth streets, has secured temporary quarters in the building at the corner of Alabama and Broad streets. According to the compilation, as made for the Insurance Herald, the total of insurance carried on the burnt district aggregates $24,550. This, taken at the usual three-quarter risk, makes the total value of the property $1,099,400, and, including those insured for less than three-quarter value the loss is estimated, conservatively, at $1,250,000. The complete list of firms which suffered by the fire follows: Mitchell Street—McClure Ten-Cent company, Central Bank and Trust corporation, J. R. Jones, Edward F. Small, Alex Kreslfe, J. H. Schroeter & Brother, Childs' Hotel, Pledmont Hat company, West Disinfecting company, Georgia Vehicle company, Paul D. O'Kelly, Keystone Type foundry, Goodrum Tobacco company, Atlanta Utility works, Burnett, engineering; Couch-Elder Manufacturing company, Couch-Elder Handkerchief company, Marion Hotel annex, Southern Suspender works, T. Floyd, Robert T. Moon, Peter Vorghetti, Robinson Neckwear company, American Baggage and Transfer company, J. Lee Reneau, United States postoffice, station B, Kingsberry Shoe company. Madison Avenue—James R. Seawright, Hill Brothers, Terminal hotel, H. L. Schessinger, Meyer & Co. Nelsen Street—Liquid Carbonic company. Hirschberg Paper company. South Forsyth Street — Anderson Brothers, Blender Frame Manufacturing company, Bridfield Regulator company, Gratton & Knight Manufacturing company, Walker & Cooley Furniture company. ENFORCING SUNDAY LAW. Columbus Police Commission to Close Soft Drink Stands on Sunday. At a called meeting of the Columbus police commissioners the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Resolved. That all establishments in the city limits handling soft drinks, except drug stores, be notified to be closed by 1 o'clock Saturday night and not to open before 12 o'clock Sunday night. Any one failing to comply with this ordinance will have a case made against them for violating the Sunday law." All patrolmen are instructed to notify all such dealers of the adoption of this order, which becomes effective at once. This does not apply to hotels, cafes and restaurants. The commission took action on complaint of Sunday drunkenness in town from near-beer or other beer. EASTERN STAR CONVENTION. Elaborate Plans Being Made for Entertainment of Delegates. The annual state convention of the grand chapter of the order of the Eastern Star will be held in Atlanta May 18, 19, 20. The order is an auxiliary of the Blue Lodges of ancient and Accepted Freemasonry and membership is limited to Masons, their wives, daughters, sisters and mothers. The order has a membership of half a million. The members of the two Atlanta chapters, "Electa" and the West End chapter, are making elaborate plans for the entertainment of the delegates who will attend the convention. COLONEL DODD WILL COMMAND. Succeeds General John B. Kerr Who Was Recently Promoted. Colonel George A. Dodd is to be the new commanding officer of the Twelfth cavalry, stationed at Fort Oglethorpe, according to orders received at the Department of the Gulf. He succeeds General John B. Kerr, who was recently promoted, from colonel and will go to Fort Riley to take command. FIRST-TRAIN OVER A. B. & A. President Atkinson and Party of Capitals Pleased With Properties. President H. M. Atkinson, of the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railroad, arrived in Atlanta Friday afternoon with a party of prominent eastern capitalists after making a thorough inspection of the road and its properties. Tampa, Fla., was visited on the trip and the Tampa Northern railroad and large lumber interests were inspected. The members also visited Brunswick and inspected the terminal facilities of the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic and the big docks of the Brunswick Steamship company. Afterward Fitzgerald and the shops of the new road were visited, together with LaGrange, Roanoke, Ala.; Talladega, Ala., and Birmingham. The train which brought the party into Atlanta was the first passenger train into the city over the new road and it was announced that arrangements for a regular passenger service would be soon made. All members of the party were well pleased with the road and its properties. COMPANIES GO INTO CAMP. Columbus and Augusta Troops Camp With Regulars. Two detached battalions of the national guard of Georgia, located at Columbus and Augusta, with the coast artillery of the state will go into camp with the regular army at Fort Screven, near Savannah. This encampment, with its consequential maneuvers, will extend over a period of two weeks, and may be longer. General Scott, with Brigadier General Clifford L. Anderson, expect to visit the boys while in camp there. There are several companies in each of these battalions and about 350 state troops and officers will join with the regulars in this bit of mimic warfare. The three regiments in the state, the cavalry companies and the light artillery companies are expected to join in the maneuvers at Chickamauga in July. With the time just two months off, activity among the companies making preparations to go, are to be seen on all sides. ATLANTA'S SCHOOL CENSUS Shows an Increase of 2,097 Pupils in Five Years The school census for the city of Atlanta for 1908 has been completed, and filed with the state school commissioner. The figures are most interesting and mark the growth of the city very clearly. In 1903 the total number of children of school age in Atlanta was 22,583; in 1908, 25,490. This shows an increase of 2,907. In 1903 the total number of white children was 14,445; in 1908, 16,802. This is an increase of 2,557. In 1903 the total number of negro children was 8,118; in 1908, 8,688. This shows an increase of 570. In 1903 the total value of the school property was $226,820; in 1908, $746,710. This is an increase of $489,890. In 1903 there were 1,055 white and negro children more than ten years of age who could neither read nor write; in 1908 the number was 436. This is a decrease of 619. BOND ELECTION AT MOULTRIE. Want to Extend the Sewerage System and Water Mains. At a meeting of the Moultier city council an election was ordered for June 16, at which time the number of proposed bond issues will $4,500 will be had. The issue was a bond election has two months ago, with the result that the bonds carried; but certain citizen raised objections to the validation of the bonds, and Judge Mitchell decided that the election was not held in requirement of the law. The bonds are to extend the sewerage system and the water mains of the city, and to give better fire protection. RECEIVER FOR BIG ESTATE. Forest Adair to Handle Walker P. Inman's Affairs. Forest Adair, of Atlanta, has been appointed receiver for the estate of the late Walker P. Inman, valued in the neighborhood of $4,000,000. The appointment was made by Judge Pendleton, of the Fulton county superior court on application of John L. Hopkins and sons, and King, Spalding & Little. This action follows closely the appointment of receivers for the cotton firm of Inman & Co., of Augusta, in which James R. Gray, one of the heirs-at-law to the Walker P. Inman estate, was a partner. MONSTER TREE GUT DOWN. Richmond County Giant Oak Measured Seven and Half Feet in Diameter. Richmond county's giant oak, measuring 7 1-2 feet on diameter at the place where it was severed, has at last fallen beneath the woodman's ax. For centuries it had stood in a meadow near Hephzibah, which for the past fifty years has been a part of the old Rhodes estate. A few months ago the land was sold to John Bostock. The tree practically ruined an acre of good farm land, so the new owner cut it down. It is said that fifteen cords of wood were cut from the limbs of the tree alone. LARGE CATCH OF FISH. More than 2,000 Pounds of Fish Taken From Mill Pond. The waters in the big Hutchinson mill pond, near Cecil, in Berrien county, were turned off Saturday, fdr the second time within a week, and vast quantities of the biggest fresh water fish ever seen in the section were caught.

The Savannah Trbune PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO 462 West Broad Street. - One Year ..... $1.25 - Six Months ..... .75 - Three Months ..... .50 - Remittance must be made by Express or Post Office Money Order, or Registered Letter. Advertising rates given on application SENATOR FORAKER has decided to defer action on the Brownsville matter until the session of Congress in December. THE Congressman of Alabama, Heflin, has been indicted on three counts for the shooting of the colored man on the street car in Washington and also shooting an innocent by-stander. It is noticed that each day a few of our men qualify themselves to vote against disfranchisement. Less than six hundred have qualified so far. We should have not less than two thousand on the books. Colored men register. We acknowledge from the board of trustees and faculty of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute, an invitation to be present at the 27th anniversary exercises of the institute, which takes place Sunday May 24th, to Thursday May 28. One of our exchanges presents the following receipt for scandal making: "Take one grain of falsehood, a handful of runabout same quantity of limber ton gue, six sprigs of backbite, and a spoonful of,don't you-tell-it, but if you don't say I said it; add to this a few drops of envy and just a pinch each of discount and jealousy; strain this through the filtering paper of misconstruction; mix it well, and cork in a medlessome bottle; hang it on a skin of street yarn, and shake it well, before taking." THE Atlanta Journal continues to assert that the Republic can convention of Chatham County endorsed the candidacy or Mr. J.M. Brown for governor. A big paper like the Journal should be above making political capital of such a thing before ascertaining the correctness of it. The convention did not endorse Mr. Brown nor did the question of endorsement come up. Even if he was endorsed what good would it do? No Republican can vote in a Democratic primary. The Journal is badly in need of political argument. The citizens of Savannah contributed liberally for the securing of the Georgia State Industrial College for this community. In this effort they were greatly assisted by the white citizens who believed with them that the securing of the College would mean much for the moral and educational uplift of the people. All of the citizens entered the movement whole heart edy and gave unstinted support to the college from its opening until it became apparent that its president cared more for factional politics than he did for the betterment of the college. Local interest then begun to vane, until about seven years ago when the president declared that he was out of politics. We took him at his word and did all that we could to increase interest in the college. The result being a large attendance of young women and men. The prident could not forego politics too long, and again returned to that arena, the result being the dwindling of local attendance especially of the young women, until at present it is at low ebb in comparison to similar institutions of learning Personally we have no feeling against the president and deem him educationally capable of conducting the college success fully, if he would stick to it consistently and endeavor to gain friends for it instead of driving the citizens away on account of his political and factional activity. We appeal to the commissioners of the college for relief. We appeal to them to make the college a place where the citizens can look to as a mecca of education and a beacon light for the upliftment of the people of the community, and the state along all right thinking lines, and not the hot bed of politics. Negro Business League The ninth annual session of the National Negro Business League is to be held at Baltimore, Mafryland, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 19, 20 and 21, 1908.

Pratt, President, is in charge of the arrangements for entertainment, etc. The strongest forces among the Negro people of that city are co operating with Mr. Pratt and the Local League to make the coming session a success. Reduced rates as usual will be secured for the meeting. Wright After Us THE TRIBUNE makes it a rule to act conservatively on all ques tions, and never become radical until a grave occasion arises. In being radical endeavor is made to give facts without coloring. This method we have persued in our attitude toward Prof. Wright of the State College. Last week we had occasion to mention the fact of him using a proxy at the Waynesboro convention that was not signed by the person from whom it was supposed to have been received. For making that truthful assertion he little professor has had us charged with criminal libel His action does not phase us in the least. We stated facts and reiterate the same now. A proxy was presented at the Waynesboro convention in Wright's favor, purported to be from an alleged delegate, with the alleged delegate's name signed to it. The signature was a torged one. The alleged delegate declared to the editor of THE TRIBUNE that he did not sign it, nor did he authorize anyone to sign his name, and moreover he asserted that he did not deem himself a legal delegate and for that reason did not attend the convention. This same statement was made to others. We predicated our assertion upon these facts, along with documentary evidences, and will stand by them to the bitter end, the little professor notwithstanding. What he expects to make out of his attempt in the face of documentary facts is hard to tell. State Convention. The Republican State Convention met Thursday in Macon. The meeting was harmonious. The delegates elected were W. H. Johnson. J. W. Lyons. H. L. Johnson and Clark Grier. The alternates S. S. Mincey, G. F. White, J. W. Gilbert, W. H. Harris. The old officers were reelected. The Wright contingent from Chatham County was sat upon hard. They were not seated. Working for the Beach? Working for the Beach As published in THE TRIBUNE a number of citizens have been appointed to assist in raising funds to farther the usefullness of the Beach Institute.

On last Thursday at no on, occurred. the sad death of Mr George William Rahn, the retiring presidnt of St. Mark's Literary Association, at his late residence, 38 Greenwich Park. Mr. Rahn was one of the brightest and most promising young men in Boston. Born in Savannah, Georgia, in 1873, he attended school in his native city for some years, after which, he entered the Georgia State College. His real preparation for college was made however at the Roxbury Latin School, Boston, from which he graduated with high honors in 1897. He was captain of the debating club which defeated the seniors, and in his senior year he won both of the first prizes given for excellence. in oratory. In 1901 he was appointed regular clerk in the Boston post-office, which position he held until stricken by illness. In 1904 he married Miss Bessie G. Smith, a handsome young lady from Sumter, S.C. One child; a little girl was born to them. His dea.h was sadly premature and must be counted among the great losses to the community. A life pure in its personal qualities, high in its public aims, fortune in the fruition of noble effort has closed safely before age had dimmed the usture of its genius. Ebenezer Baptist Church, West Springfield street to which Mr. Rahn belonged was packed to the doors last Thursday at the funeral services. The funeral procession was escorted to and frm the church by the Eiks of Greater Boston headed by the recently organized Cambridge Lodge, of which the deceased was a member. A deputation of post office employees was present. Rev. C. Ward, of the Ebenezer Church, officiated assisted by Rev.-S. A. Brown, of St. Mark's Congregational Church. The Amphion Male Quartet, composed by Messrs. Charles Sport, Matthew Walton, Shelton Pollen, and J. V. Holmes according to the deceased's request sang appropriate and touching selections. The palbearers: Dr B. E. Robinson, Messrs. Samuel Griffin, A. V. Jones, and G. W Tarrant. So numerous were the beautiful floral offerings, that a seperate carriage was provided for them. What was perhaps his most successful effort, which makes all Boston and the race indebted to him, was his revolutionizing of St. Mark's Association. Free speech and a hearing to all sides of any question were guaranteed by the strong and square administration of the popular young president. This past year has been by far the most successful season of St. Mark's under the common efforts of the president and the executive committee headed by Dr. R. E. Robinson. A series of brilliant and practical addresses have been delivered this year and a goodly sum of money has been accumulated in the treasury. It was the ambition of Mr. Rahn to have Dr. Booker T. Washington close the season this year, but owing to the pressure of engagements this was impossible. St. Mark's Literary, the forum of the race in Boston, was the contribution of George W. Rahn. Baptist Ministers Union. The Baptist Ministers Union met on Monday as usual, hev, W. M. Gray, president. After the devotional exercise the order of the day was taken up and the cardinal doctrine was discussed by the Union Sisters S.A. Chisolm, E. McWalker. Annette Green and Rev.

"Are the great majority of men and women ready for their children when they come to them?" asks Christine Terhune Herrick in the May WOMAN'S HOME COMPANION. "Would you commit the care of the average parents an important enterprise in which you were especially interested, and to which they had given no more study than they have to parenthood, secure that right feeling good will would insure an ultimate happy result? "In spite of the apparent light-heartedness with which the responsibility is usually assumed, it is not an easy thing to be a parent. to fill this profession into which men and women rush without a title of the thought and preparation they would bestow upon recalling of, infinitely less importance. To take charge of the bodily welfare of a little child is no such trifling matter that a heedless girl with no knowledge of life forces, of hygiene, of dietetics or of ordinary sanitation should assume if as lightly as she would the care of a new doll. More perilous even. than this are the issues favoured in the drill of a child in habits of obedience by a woman without self-discipline, in self-control by a woman who does not know herself, in knowledge by one who is herself an infant in her preception of all that underlies life and death, mortality and immortality."

The average yield of silage on the whole number of farms was about nine tons. The average cost of fillins the silos was sixty-four cents, the range belng from forty-six to cighty- six cepts. The average cost per acre for putting away the corn was $3 93. ‘The difference in cost was no! wholly due to management, but was party explained by long hanls, lodged corn or accidents to machinery. It is no- ticeable that the lowest costs were ob- tained by gasoline engine outfits and blowers in place of the carrier eleva- tors. The lowest costs were obtained where the working force was mest equally balanced so as to keep every-: body busy all the time. Where large loads were hauled the cost was some- what reduced. Corn harvesters were used on some farms and the corn handled in bundles. The corn crop was the one used on all farms but one, where half the ensilage was from alfalfa, the handling 6f which somewhat increased the cost of filling the silo. One man could haul five loads of alfalfa in a day, while fire men could haul from thirty-five to forty loads of corn. On a few of the farms co-operation prevailed, farmers owning the machinery together, and by slightly varying the seeding time managed to have their crops come in such a way that they could be har- vested one after the other. In max- ing these estimates of cost, labor was | reckoned at fifteen cents per hour’ and teams at the same price, and gas engine and engineer at $4.50 per day | Valne of Cut Green Bone. As winter approaches the- supply of natural animal diet will so quickl diminish as to deprive the hen of th greatest of all natural foods for egg making. All foods contain suMcient fat to provide for the yolk apd th entire fatty postion of the ess. The white or albuminous portion of th " exg.requires protein. So long as na. ture’s supply of bugs and worms can be sathered from the fields, the hens will continue to lay. With the com. ing of the first frosts we notice a shortening of the egg yield. There 4s no substitute equal to cut green Done to take the place of bugs and worms. Cut green bone and raw meats of all kinds come nearer to nature's animal food supply than does any animal food orground meats furnished to the hen. The bone cut- ter should bé used wherever poultry 4s grown. Every kind and characte? of. meat and bones that are ‘fresh enough to be fit for foods can easily be reduced to small particles through sthé bone mill; and in this condition may be most profitably fed to the hens. The more lean and the less fat ‘used in this way the better will be ‘the results obtained. Wherever there is a meat market from whieh the ref- use bones can be obtained at a price Within reason it is most advantageous to use them. One to two ounces per :day of this-kind of food is considered ‘a very profitable proportion, Where ithe product can be obtained at a low price, the larger amount may be profitably used. In some localities where such products are searce and ‘hard to obtain, a smaller amount may be used to goodladvantage. Cut green ivones are those to which there ad- heres more or less meat. When passed through the mill while fresh and sof they are thore easily ground up than when they become dry and Jhard. When too large to go through the mill they can be mashed into smaller pieces with a hammer and ther ground up to the proper size. Some growers boil the ent green done and mix it in the mash. Much of its value is lost in this way. Where “any mixture is fed with the bone it is sauch better to mix it with a little dry bran, so that it may be spread out and more thoroushly distributed throughout the flock. At times some of the larger and more vigorous hens will obtain more than their share it it is not mixed in this way with the dry mash. This product naturally contributes to the bone and muscle construction and hastens the forma- tion of feathers, quickens the produc- tion of eggs. and maintains health, vigor and vitality. In all the egg tests more or less of meat of some kind has been fed. In contests where the meat has been left ‘out and something else substituted in its stead, the results have not been 0 good. All the scraps from the ta, ‘ple—bread, peelings of fruit and ve? etabies, meat, bones, ete., may be passed through the bone mill and fed -most profitably. Fowls relish this kind of food; it provides shell for the eggs, replenishes the nerve power, sustains the entire body and adds te the egg basket, greatly to the profit of the owner.—Country Gentleman. * Use and Abuse of Fertilizer. ‘When we are deciding what fertili- zer to buy the questions what plant food am I getting in certain brands? -What do I need most in order to set mostfrom my investment? Where must‘I look to for certain’ clemeats of plant food? are all pertinent ques- tions. We are taught that nitroger iscthe most easily wasted, that it es- capes into the air, that It is most eas- fly leached out of the soil and that it fs the most costly. In most crops jarger “quantities of nitrogen are used than fs the case with the other purchased elements. It is natural te suppose that this element is most de. ficient in the soil, but we also learn that the stable manure carries more nitrogen than it, does in the other elements. That when it escapes into the alr it comes back to the earth and so what is one’s loss may be an* other's gain. We also learn that Je- gumes have the power of drawing upon the unlimited supply of free nl- trogen in the air. When we examine the forest we find the wild pea, the locust, red bud and other legumes all drawing upon the free nitrogen and depositing it in,the soll. If qwe-visit the old worn out fields if ‘there are any weeds growing we may find the begsar weed, the sensitive pea and other wild legumes suited to the loca- tion all drawing upon the nitrogen of the air and supplying it for all:vege- tation growing on the field. If we examine the analysis of the, different ‘brands of fertilizer wé find usually no matter how much the goods. cost that the nitrogen content is compara- tively low. At present prices can any general farmer afford to buy, sufi- cient nitrogen to grow his crop? If Rot, can He not by favoring | the growth of Yegumes and by carefully saving and applying the stable man- ure do without buying nitrogen? This will certalaly cut down expenses: The idea of feeding the crop just what fertilizers it needs to grow a certain number of bushels per acre is a delusion and fs misleading. We must consider what ye have already in the soll and Just buy needed ete- ments, must so manage the crops {rom Year to year that the soll Ss Ini- proved and thus gradually build up our Jands,so that we could ‘grow a good crop without the’ purchase "ot commercial fertilizer. This can be done by the use of the cheaper ele- ments of fertilizer and by growing le gumes, saving the stable mannre and applying it properly. A phosphate often gives as good resutts in grow-' ing 2 crop as higher priced goods. This gives a start and by good man- agement increases the manure pile. The manure furnishes plant food-and also Improves the condition of the soll, which prepares thé way for a larger crop next year and an in- created supply’ of stable manure. Think of the possibilities of:sych a plan.—A. J. Legs, in The Epltomist. Iforse Oualitc. A horseman well versed in breed- ing and handling draft and other breeds has some good advice on the quality “question." We "refer -to£Dr! Greenside, in Lis recent address, who says: “A high degree of ‘quality’ and sufficient substances are most impor- tant in contributing to, perfection in horseflesh. There are many every- day evidences of the ill consequences ‘of deficjent quality in horseflesh. You hear a korsoman say that a horse has soft lezs, and he points out an indi- vidual inclined to fill about the skin of the fetlocks, to show windgalls, which extend up the sheaths of his back tendons, and whose hocks aré inclined to be puffy, If he gets a bruise or injury of any kind to the skin of his legs the consequent swelling Is apt to extend, and is in- clined to remain. Abrasions, cuts, cracks and scratches heal rather tar- dily. Concussion and direct injury to bone are very much, inclined to result in bony enlargenient, such as, splints that spread out, and have not well defined limits. - Standing in the stable too much readily produces stocking of the legs. Feet afe in- clined to be flat, large and easily bruised. - These’ tendencies show coarseness of tissue and low organ- ization, a meagre blood supply and inactive nutrition. Horses with ‘quality’ also develop windgalls and splints if subjected to sufficient cause, but thelr character differs from ‘those of the coarse In--being clean eut and well. defined, and not having the tendency to spread out. A horee with quality may have a bog spavir, but it will show as a, well, de- fined prominence, and not as a round puflness of the hock throughout. Draught horsemen talk ‘quality’ just as much, or more, than those who have to do with light breeds. The difference in the ‘quality’ of indivia- uals ot the draught breeds. is just as marked as in the light breeds. . Take, for instance, a Clydesdale or Shire, either of which will have a consider- able quantity of" Jong hair on the back of his legs; which fs often re- ferred to as ‘feather.’ If this hair is found to be fine and silky, not coarse and wiry, You will find that it is possessed bY an individual that shows ‘quality’ throughout. His skin will not beeoarse and beefy, his legs will be fluted, his bone will have A tendency to flatness, showing* den- sity of structure. The hair of his mane and tail will be fine, like that at the back of his legs. The emin- ence and depressions formed by the bones of his head ‘will be compara- tively finely chiseled. “He, in, fact, shows ‘quality,’ when’ compared ‘to other members ‘of the same, breed that are equally well bred as far as possessing the characteristics’ is an indication of breeding.” - 4 = ~ _ Pig Notes, Thrift, ‘not hunger, should prompt exercise in pigs. , ee Pure bred hogs not only hfford more pleasure, but bring larger pro- fits to the farmer tlan common stock. In buying pigs for breeding of any breed be careful to select from sows of a good milking record, ‘As much pains should be taken in breeding up the big,milkers with our sows as we ido with'our'cows, ' * SE eee ee a ae See Before giving ‘his cohsent the Great Western Rallway to build a railway bridge across a part ‘of his property a Iandowner stipulated that {t should ‘be constructed of stone which should match that of which his House was Dullt, and should consist .of threo elliptical arches.

Agcicultural Branch of ‘the Tralning of San Antonio Children, The school garden system of Sau Antonio, Tex, 1s on an established practical basis. It 1s sald that this city has more gardens attached to its Schooia than any<place of its size tn the World. Thero are 949 of these cultivated plots attached to the twen tymine'public schools. The gardens are in charge of school superioten dents, but. the work of planting, cul etyating and harvesting the products of each Is carried on by the pupils of tke school to which the garden belongs. The gradens vary from one. tenth to one-quarter of an acre. It is estimated that the total acreage ts moro than 100, or equal to that of a good sized farm. ‘The boys of the-schools take a great pridq in their gardens. * The feachers dlclare that since the gar. dens were: established the boys are much more industrious, {n their stud- des, that they learn more readily and that they all show evidence of” mate- tla] Improvements In their health and physical condition. The ellmate of San Antonio Is pe- cullarly adapted tothe operation of the school garden system, The work an be carried on during practically the whole school term. Certain veg- etables can bé grown successfully during the fall and winter. The spring gardens aro planted early {a February and the products are ma- tured and harvested by the time the schoo] term ends in June. An enor mous quantity of vegetables is grown, ‘The boys take such a keen Interest in the Nork that they give Iittle time to playlng the games that usually con- eume a good part of the time of young students. Thero is much rivalry among thp different schools over the gardens. . ‘Text books on agriculture now are used in the public schools of San An- tgnio. The youths are given a dasio training in farming and gardening and are enabled to put their knowl- edge to practical use In the gardens that aro provided for them. Enor getic boys, who become interested in the work do not confine their labors to the school garden but many of them hate converted unsightly back yards anl vacant lots at thelr homes Into cultivated plots. The Beardiess Man. There 1s a so-called “gmooth-shav- en” millionaire in New York who never used a razor on his face. Twen- ty-five years ago he was a monome- ‘nize on the subject of, saving time, and among other short cuts to for- tune made up his mind to cut out shaving, a matter of 15 cents a day ‘and about twenty minutes of preci- ous time, if the Barber made good. After a trial of various cosmotics and depilatories he decided that electroly- sis was a far better, though a very tedious, process. In five months the root of-every hair in ‘both beard and moustache was utterly destroyed by an electric ‘current from a constant attery. The man suffered consider- ably, ‘but ever since the operation his face has been as smooth as a bald head. No power on earth could re- store ‘his beard now. —Now York Press. HER ,CONSIDERATION.

For a part of the season of each year Greenland fs asaccessible as Nor- way.

Is it more proper to call Pernna a ca- tarrh remedy than to call it a tonic? * Onr reply is, that Peruna is both a tonic and 2 catarrh remedy. Indeed, there can be no effectual catarrh remedy that is not also a tonic. . Inorder to thoroughly relieve any caso of catarrh, a remedy must not only ‘have a specific action on the mucous membranes affected by the catarrh, but it must havo a general tonic action on tho nervous system. Catarrh, even in persons who are otherwise strong, isa weakened condl- tion of some mucous membrane, There must be something to strengthen the circulation, to give tone to the arteries, and to raise the vital forces. ‘Pezhaps no vegetable remedy in tho world has attracted so much attention from medical writers as HYDRASTIS CANADENSIS. The wonderfal efficacy of this herb has been recognized many years, and is growing in its hold upon the medical profession, When joined with CUBEBS and COPAIBA 2 trio of medical agents is formed in Peruna which constitates a specific rem- edy for-catarrh that in the present state of medical progress cannot be im- proved upon. This action, reinforced by,such renowned tonics as COLLIN- SONIA CANADENSIS, CORYDALIS FORMOSA and CEDRON SEED, ought to make this compound an ideal remedy for catarrh in all its ateges and locations in the body. ‘From a theoretical standpoint, therefore, Peruna is beyond criticism. The use of Peruna, confirms this opinion. Numberless testimonials from every quarter of the earth furnish ample evidence that this judgment is not over enthusiastic. When practical experience confirms a well-grounded theory the result is a truth that cannot bo shaken.

AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV. JOHN C. ÅGER. Theme: Casting Out Evil Spirits. Brooklyn, N. Y.—In the Church of the New Jerusalem (Swedenborgian), the pastor, the Rev. John Curtis Ager, preached Sunday morning on "Casting Out Evil Spirits," a sermon suggested by the Emmanuel Movement. The text was from Matthew 10:7: "And He called unto Him His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits to cast them out." Mr. Ager said: The Lord's twelve disciples were exceptional disciples only in the sense that they were types of representatives of discipleship. That is, the outward duties and powers and privileges which the Lord conferred upon these twelve men were divine types or symbols of the spiritual duties and powers and privileges that are conferred upon all true disciples of the Lord. So his power or authority that unclean spirits set that at every true disciple of the Lord possesses in the measure of his discipleship, that is, in the measure in which he has come into the true order of his life. This great truth lies at the foundation of certain lines of thought that are attracting much attention at the present time. These concern themselves mainly with man's deliverance from physical evils, or diseases, with only an obscure recognition of the fact that physical evils are mainly the effects or results of spiritual evils. But the next step, that the spiritual evils that beset us are caused by our affiliation with evil spirits, as these words plainly imply, is regarded as an absurd superstition. For modern Christian thought gives the least possible space and consideration to the supernatural. It has never found any place in its thinking for an actual spiritual world, which is the endless abode of all who have passed out of this world through the gate of death. It has even less respect for the idea that those who have passed out of this world, wheverer they may be, have any vital connection with our experiences here. This attitude of mind is most plainly out of harmony with the apparent teaching of the Gospels, which everywhere take for granted the existence of spiritual beings, good and evil, who hold most intimate relations to men on the earth. So this aspect of the Gospel teaching is something that needs to be explained away, and the attempts to do this are numerous and varied. To the new church, on the other hand, this is a vital truth, both as a fundamental philosophical principle and as a practical doctrine. A century and a half ago Swedenborg set forth with great fullness a truth that recent philosophy has been making a good deal of, the truth of the solidarity of the human race. Protestant theology rested on pure individualism. But the truth that humanity as a whole is a one, a vital and organic entity, has now come to be clearly seen and its significance recognized. Most thinkers, however, confine this truth to the present population of this earth, while Swedenborg makes it include all humanity, the population of all worlds, including the spiritual world. He teaches, furthermore, that this universal organism is in the human form that is, is a human organism, as all its parts and constituents. In this organism each individual soul has its place and function, like the cells and fibres of the human body, each one vitally related to every other. But while it is true that no individual soul or spirit could exist if cut off from other soul or spirit, yet every human soul is a separate individual, with complete capability of determining the character of its own life for itself. Another doctrine to which Swedenborg gives a unique importance is the doctrine of influx. Every individual soul in its true order is a finite image of the infinite, and is therefore made up of numberless functions and powers and parts, from highest to lowest. Into this complex organism the divine life flows in an unceasing stream. Modern psychology teaches that our consciousness covers only a part of this mental organism, the part that lies next to our bodily sensations, and therefore the lower, outermost part. And the consciousness is an essential element of all choices and determinations, and it is by choices and determinations that character is determined, so it is only this lower or outer conscious region of our life into which spiritual disorder or evil can enter. All these regions of the human soul, from highest to lowest, are merely organic vessels or receptivities, and are living only by virtue of the unceasing inflow of life into them. Into the highest or inmost region of the soul the divine life flows directly from the Lord. This region lies above or within all human and angelic consciousness, and forms the eternal connection between the infinite and eternal life and the finite life, ensuring to the human soul its endless existence. Into all the regions of the soul below this highest or inmost two streams of life flow, one inwardly from the Lord, one outwardly from other finite souls. And it is this latter interflow of life from soul to soul that binds all finite souls into a single organism, the universal man. Thus the life of man is in no sense and in no respect self-derived. The human soul is nothing but an organic vessel; and it is made alive solely by what flows into it. And this inflowing life enters the soul in two ways, one directly from the Lord, the other meditatively through other souls. And this is true of all the activities of life, and especially of its two chief activities, thought and feeling. The capacities of the human 'soul may be grouped under two heads, namely, intellectual and emotional. Life flowing into the intellectual capacities produces thought; flowing into the emotional capacities it produces feeling and willing, and all thought and feeling and willing in man are so produced. Thus our thought and feeling are not, as they appear to be, self-derived. They are the product of these two streams of life that flow into us unceasingly, one directly from the Lord, the other mediately through other souls. We know how thought and feeling are communicated to us by means of what enters the mind through the senses—that is, by means of language and visible and tangible objects, and we acknowledge that such thought and feeling are communicated, and not self-derived. So there is no movement in the human mind that of a product of thought or feeling from other minds. This impartation and reception of thought and feeling we are wholly unconscious of; but it is the only explanation of many mental phenomena. All this may sound like mere speculation; but it is, in fact, only a somewhat elaborated way of saying that everything good and true in human life is from the Lord and everything evil and false is of the devil and from the devil. This truth the Christian church has always recognized as a matter of doctrine. But to hold it merely as a doctrine is not sufficient. It is a primary and fundamental principle of right living, and we can never make much progress in right living until the mind has gained so clear and firm a recognition of this truth as will enable it to shape and determine all our thinking and feeling about all our experiences with evil and falsity and with good and truth. For so long as we regard the right thoughts and feelings that are stirred in us as our own, as purely self-derived, we simply of our them valued possessions of our self-life, and so long as we regard the wrong thoughts and feelings that are stirred in us as our own, we can never rid ourselves of them. Thus what we find ourselves dealing with in all our experience with wrong thoughts and feelings is other personalities. Whether they are living in this, world or the spiritual world we do not know, and it makes no difference. They are unclean spirits, incarnate or discarnate, trying to impose their life upon us. So far as we permit them to work their will in us they will go on stirring up in us all sorts of false thinking and evil feeling. But so far as we are striving to become disciples of the Lord He gives us authority over them to cast them. Let us note the exact meaning of these words, "He called unto Him His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits to cast them out." From these words we may be assured in the first place that this authority over unclean spirits to cast them out is bestowed by the Lord only upon His disciples. Therefore, if we wish to possess this power over the infernal influences that are stirring up wrong thoughts and feelings in us we must be disciples of the Lord. A disciple is a learner, and a disciple of the Lord is one who wishes to learn from the Lord. Calling His disciples unto Him, the Lord gave them this power. The Lord calls to us in every truth about right living that we give heed to; and we listen to His call whenever we accept any truth as His truth, and therefore as the true wisdom of life. This desire for the true wisdom of life and willingness to accept it in place of our own wisdom is what opens the mind for the true wisdom of life to flow in; and this wisdom is all power or authority over evil spirits. For no evil or falsity can exist in the presence of true wisdom. Just as effectually, as light, darkness does truth dissipate falsity, and truth sole defense. The hold that anything has upon our life is determined solely by the way we think about it and feel about it. The truths we profess to believe are so ineffectively in ridding us of our evil simply because of our obscure and indefinite conception of them, and our loose and feeble hold upon them. Our prime need, therefore, is clearer conceptions of the truth; that is, clearer conceptions of the right way of looking at all the issues and experiences of life, and of the right way to feel about them. The power or authority over unclean spirits that the Lord bestows upon us is the authority of law over disorder, of right over wrong, of truth over falsity over darkness. And this is the power of right thou art and purpose. This authority no evil spirit or evil influence can withstand. With it we can effectually cut out even the most insidious invasions of evil upon our life. Such is the authority over unclean spirits that the Lord bestows upon all disciples. The only condition necessary to receiving it is to be a disciple of the Lord. The twelve disciples did not ask for this authority. It was a token, and the chief token, of discipleship. So if we do not possess this power it is because we are not disciples, and the only way to get it is to become a disciple. And becoming a disciple is simply learning how to think in the right way and to feel in the right way about all the experiences of life, even the most trivial, and compelling ourselves to think and to treat all always in that way and to bring all words and all our own acts into harmony with that thinking feeling. This is the disciple state of mind and the way of life. All that is necessary to gain it is to see that this is the chief business of our life in this world, and to give to it the daily study and thought and effort it deserves. And doing this, we shall very soon come to see that the authority over unclean spirits to cast them out is a pure gift from the Lord, and that His yoke is indeed easy and His burden light. Getting Exeu—With What? When one person has wronged another, the unjustly injured person is always, for the time being, on a higher plane than the one who has done the injury. The wronged one has not lost what the other has lost. The only way to make the loss equal is for the injured one to "get even." Then, in addition to his hurt feelings, he has the satisfaction of knowing that he is no better than the other who is. What an ingenious temper Satan is, to persuade us to add injury to insult unto ourselves! For what is what "getting even" accomplishment is lowering ourselves and our standards to the level of the one who has wronged us. How much better to help the other to "get even" with the higher standards which Christ alone can enable us to hold to: love and forgiveness.—Presbyterian Record. Real Praver.

A tree growing on the top of the 110 foot tower of the court house at Greensburg, Ind., is a curiosity which is said by a writer in St. Nicholas to have, no duplicate in the world. There were formerly four trees, but when the court house was remodelled in 1887 the largest tree, then about fifteen feet high, was removed, as its size was thought to render the tower unsafe. Two others on the south side perished from the intense heat. The tree left is found at the northwest corner of the tower, where the reflection of the heat of the tower is not so intense as at the point where the two others died. As there is a grove of soft maples growing in the court house yard, the grove on the tower is supposed to have been started by the wind blowing the winged maple seeds in to the crevices where, catching root in the sediments of dust and watered by the rain, they sprouted. The trees were first noticed sprouting more than thirty years ago. A recent examination of the tower shows no damage done by the spreading growth of the roots. The tree is about fifteen feet in height and three inches in diameter. It was found that the trees were nourished by a layer of growth a few feet below where the roots emerge. A large crack on the south side of the tower where one of the trees was removed is noticeable' from the ground. Because of the lone tree, Greensburg is sometimes known as the "Lone Tree City."

[Illustration of a woman with a curly hairstyle and a necklace.] ```markdown ``` This woman says that sick women should not fail to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as she did. Mrs. A. Gregory, of 2355 Lawrence St., Denver, Col., writes to Mrs. Pinkham: "I was practically an invalid for six years, on account of female troubles. I underwent, an operation by the doctor's advice, but in a few months I was worse than before. A friend advised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I received me to perfect health, such as I have not enjoyed in many years. Any woman suffering as I did with backache, bearing-down pains, and periodic pains, should not fail to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, has been the standard remedy for female ills, and has positively cured thousands of women who have been troubled with displacements, inflammation, ulceration, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, that bearing-down feeling, flatulency, indigestion, dizziness or nervous prostration. Why don't you try it? Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass. RHEUMATISM! SAL-TORA, The Wonderful Remedy, Sent Free.

This is one of our festival oecasions and we should not fail to render due honor to the oceaston. % : ‘The Grand Master will be able to re- port a number of new lodges at this session. ‘ On Friday, June 26th, a new Ma- ‘sonic Lodge will be set up‘in this city.

To the Editor of The Tribune: ‘The Masons of the city was invited to lay the cornerstone for the Wash- ington Avenue Presbyterian Church on yesterday. > The Worshipfui Master “of Central City Lodge, No. 199, applied to Grand Master H. R. Butler for a dispensa- tion, which was granted at once, (as he always does things on the square). Right Worshipful Grand Junior War- den Bro. J. H. Walker, of Macon, was chosen to lay the stone. All the lodges met at thefr Temple on Cotton avenue at two o'clock p. m. and the following officers were ap- ginted to fil the stations as Grand offi cers: Phst Master J. H. Walker, G. M. Past Master L. H. Burdell, D. G. M. Past Master F. D. Ray, S, G. W. Past Master Jesse Robincon, J..G. M. T. W. Williams, G. S. D. Past Master L. A. Jones, G. J. D. Past Master J: H. Hall, G. C. J. H.

The Grand Marshals then formed the procession, and we proceeded ‘to the chureh, where” we found a tre- mendous crowd in the basement and around the building awaiting the ar- rival of the Masons. . Not having enough space in the front for the large crowd, services were held in the basement: . First, Music by the choir. Reading a passage of Scripture, by the pastor. Music, by the choir. Prayer, by Dr. E. E. Green. Second, Sermon, by Dr, J. W. Hol- ley, the pastor. : The sermon, in part: The comer- stone is a memorial stone; has been used for memorials for many years, Gen. 28:19, Jacob set up a memo- rial, having crossed the Jordan; Joshua commands that twelve stones be taken from the bed of the river and set up as a memorial of God's mer- cles, 4, 8, 9, 20, 22, 24; 26-27. And so today the Washington Ave- nue Presbyterian Church and _ its friends gather here to set up ‘a stone hitherto Wath the Lord led us. Seven- ty years has God led us as a church, many members ‘have crossed over, oth- ers are crossing every year and soon we Gill shall be numbered with them. Blessed are those who have lived to see this stone laid. Again, the comerstone is not onty a memorial, but it represents Christ. And after a pointed and well based sermon, he closed by calling attention to two things: First, Give thanks to God for His mercies during these past years; secénd, Dedicaté ourselves anew to His sertices. Third, quintette, Praise ye the Lord, by’Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Glaseo, Miss Senetta Haves, Mrs. J. W. Holley and Mr. James Braswell. ~ General collection. ee Fourth, The Grand Marshal. J. J.
