500,000 PEOPLE GREET FLEET
Sixteen American Battleships at An-
chor in Sydney Harbor.
., Sydney, New South Wales—The
‘American warships arrived here and
were given a great ovation, It is os-
timated that hardly less than half a
million people assembled to give the
visitors a royal welcome. — Sydney
harbor, with its innumerable bays and
coves, never looked more beautiful,
nor did the American sailors ever wit:
ness 2 more inspiring sight than thgt
which greeted their eyes as the white
ships came through the channel, past
the great head lands into Port ‘Jack-
son.
A hundred thousand people, the
greatest single assemblage of all,
gathered on the south heads, where
2 magnificent view of the whole scene
was to be had.
Hundreds of craft of all kinds mov-
ed up and down, even at that early
hour, all the waters, with the excep-
tion ‘of the fairway ‘and the anchor;
ages, being dotted with little and big
‘vessels, decorated in every concelva-
dle manner with flags and bunting.

NEW WIRELESS TELEPHONE.
It Is Said to,Be Superior to Anything
+. Previously Invented.
» Paris, France—The nayal leuten-
ants, Colin, Jeance and Mercir, the
inventors of a wireless telephone ap-
.paratus which recent tests have
‘shown to be superior to anything ex-
isting, have achieved remarkable suc-
cess with thelr new instrument, com-
munieated with the wireless station
at Raz de Sein, department of Fin-
stere, a distance’ of about three hun-
dred ‘and ten smiles. The’ transmitted
cwords were somewhat faint, but could
be plainly distinguished, and the off-
cers are confident that they can make
great Improvements in the apparatus,
swhich has been the result of only
four months’ experiment, enabling
the exchange of conversation up to
six hundred or seven hundred miles.
EMIGRATION COMPANIES.
Great Decrease in Their Number in
Japan,
Tokio, Japan—At the time when
‘veto was proclaimed upon Japanese
emigrants to Hawaiian Islands and
subsequently to America‘there existed
thirty-one emigration companies in
this country. Since that time with
the exception of three, these compan-
fes have had nothing to do with a
‘large sum of security money idly de-
‘posited at the foreign office. These
three are sending emigrants to Brazil
and Peru. The rest, having no. busi.
ness to do and no income, are closing
their doors one after another.

San Francisco, Cal—Arrivals on the

‘tives of the Philippine group are more
content with conditions, at present
than they have ever shown them-
selves since the American occupation
took place, This, too, in spite of hard
times as a result of the failure of the
lee’ crop.
‘The declaration that Aguinaldo, for-
mer insurgent Ivader, is seeking office

“QUAKES IN CALIFORNIA
Town of Enireka Was Center of
the Disturbance.
THERE WERE THREE SHOCKS
“DamagorStatwe of Miners on the
Court House Crashed Down.
Eureka, Cal—Three sharp earth
quake shocks,‘ which knocked: down
more than 2 hundred chimnégs, shat
tered ‘about forty plate glags” win
dows in the dusiness portion of Eu
reka, broke much crockery in the
houses and sent many people scurry;
ing from their beds into the streets
occurred here. The damage reported
so far is estimated at between $2,000
and $3,000. *
The first and sharpest shock Was
almost as severe as the one felt here
on April 18, 1906. Another slighter
shock was experienced, followed by a
third. The first shock caused practi:
cally all the damage.’ Besides shak
ing down many chimneys and break:
ing crockery, the trembler caused the
sixteen-foot statue of Minerva on the
¢ounty court house grounds to drop
her “heavy staff, which crashed
through the roof inta Superior Judge
Hunt's court room. The walls of the
court house were cracked in several
places, but the damage is not great.
The walls of the Carnegié brary
erected five years ago at a cost of
$35,000 were slightly cracked. .
. Reports from the Seasy ranch, neat
Freshwkter,-six miles north of Eureka,
state that®the earthquake caused a
"big fissure in the earth for a hal!
ynile. A number of chimneys’ were
‘thrown down in that vicinity, but oth-
erwise little damage was done. The
shocks extended as far north as Blue
lake, twenjy-five miles from Eureka,
where some crockery was broken and
half a dozen chimneys knocked down.
Ttie shocks seem to have been con:
fined to a small area and the vibra
tions were southwest to northeast, {

AIRSHIP IS A SUCCESS.
Baldwin's Craft Lands Safely After Most
Successful Flight.
Washington, D. C.—Like a demon
from the skies, its motor spitting fire
and its Jong gray gas bag outlined
against the dark sky of dusk, the
Baldwin airship- landed at Fort My:
er after making a filght which broke
all records for aerial navigation in
this country,
For two hours and five minutes the
big military dirigible, built for the
United States army flew back and
forth over a course nearly five miles
im length in the official endurance
trial. ‘The alrship 1s now the prop-
erty of the signal corps ofthe United
States army, a few formalities only
aining to be gone through before
Wiptain Baldwin turns his aerial cratt
Over to General Allen, chief signal of-
ficer.
The airship has withstood every
test required of it by the terms of
the contract between the government
and Captain Thomas C. Baldwin, thus
entitling the aeronaut to the full con-
tract price, $6,750. The total dis-
tance covered in the trial was be-
tween 28 and 30 miles:
‘Throughout the trip, the alrship
was kept under almost perfect con-
trol, and, at no time, said Mr. Curtiss,
did ‘the engines miss a spark..
In the test it was required that
Captain Baldwin remain in continu-
ous filght for two hours at an aver-
age speed equaling 70 per cent of
that attained in the previous speed
trial—19.6 miles an hour. This would
de 13.4 an hour. It fs estimated that
the average speed maintained in the
last: filght was about 17 miles an
hour.
Another condition {mposed was that
sufficient fuel be carried to run the
‘motor ‘for two hours, and that exces-
sive heating of the engine should, not
occur. Both of these conditions were
easily fulfilled, there being two gal-
ons of ‘gasoline, of the five taken
on the trip, still remaining unused
‘when the landing was made.

Ing of the republican national ticket
of 1908 was held here when Represen-
tatlve James S, Sherman was tender-

cepting he subscribed heartily, he
declared, to the declaration of’ prin-
ciples adopted, at the Chicago conven-
tion in June to the every utterance
of Secretary Taft In his Cincinnati
speech, and to the policies of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Mr, Sherman assert-
ed that the approval of the adminis-
tration was the real issue of the cam-
paign about to be undertaken. -
Mr, Sherman’s speech was unusual-
ly Urief, and he did not attempt to
discuss In detall any of the questions
tguched upon by Secretary Taft.
Senator Julius Burrows of Michigan,
chairman of the notification commit:
‘tee, made tender of the nomination.
Secretary of State Root, speaking
as a neighbor and Hfe-long friend of
‘the candidate, eulogized Mr. Sherman,
politics baving no place in his brief
but eloquent address.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies
Mr. Sherman was presented with a
magnificent gold-lined silver loving
cup, a gift from his colleagues in the
national house of representatives,
Holiday throngs filled the streets
from early morning until late at
night, band concerts and an electrical
Mumination being the last features of
the day's celebration.

‘Abolish the Stock :

: Exchange Ticker
Ey Former Judze A. J. Dittenhoefer.
OW is the time to consider what measures should be taken
to prevent the recurrence in the future of such financial
debauchery as has prevailed within the last year or two.
The root of the evil fes in the stock exchange ticker. Erad:
jeate the root and to a Jarge extent the evil will be elimin-
ated. Every day of the year the ticker is made to spread
broadcast false and fictitious quotations of ‘the value of the
corporate securities held by the “high financiers” to en-
siine:. i... «sk ce eee ee | 6a anaes rele

sales, which are run off on the ticker as genuine, and the public, believing
that the sales have actually been made, are fooled into purchasing them at
the ticker prices. When the financiers have unloaded a sufficient quantity
_ the prices are depressed by them in the same manner, to the great loss of the
Persons who bought them at the fictitious ticker prices, and then the finan-
clers buy them back and unload them again, and so the endless chain Is kept
up. It is a regular bunco game.
Make it a felony to be a party directly or indirectly fo the spreading over
the ticker of such counterfelt transactions, and a stop will be put to such un
Sonscionablé watering of securities as has taken place within the-last few
years. If the financiers are not furnished with the facilities the ticker gives
they will be tnable to unload thelr wares on the public at fictitious prices,
and there will consequently be no use or profit in their pouring streams cf
. Water into their schemes. ‘
t It may be answered that it may prove difficult to show by legal proot
who the parties are who cause fictitious prices to be sent over the ticker, but
whoever does this must have some confidential clerk in his employ who would
be bie to furnish this proof. That being so, is it likely that these men would
be willing to place themselves in the power of their clerks and run the risk
pr an indictment for felony? ~

Tutti-Fruttl Pudding.—Remove the pits from one cupful of stewed prunes and cut them in small pieces; rub one cupful of stewed and sweetened apricots through a sleeve; steam and cut in small pieces one dozen plump figs. Make a crust of one cupful of sour cream, to which has been added half a teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little warm water, a little salt and flour sufficient to make a paste that can be rolled out. Line a pudding dish with a portion of it, and put in the fruits in alternate layers until half is used, dotting each layer with bits of butter and sprinkling them lightly with flour. Cover with a very thin layer of crust and use the rest of the fruit in the same way as at first; cover with crust and bake thirty minutes. Serve warm with any preferral sauce.—Ladies' World.
Many women have no initiative in love matters. It would never occur to this type of woman to fall in love with a man until he had first signified his approval of her, but no sooner does he declare his affection than she forthwith blossoms out into a devout lover. Her affection is due merely to a negative reciprocity. Leap year would be of no use to a woman of this kind.—Gentlewoman.
Forgot She Owned an Estate.
The Arminster (Devonshire) Board of Guardians have been assisting a woman named Olsen, an inmate of their workhouse, to establish her claim to an estate in America, which she is said to have purchased many years ago and apparently forgotten all about it until quite recently, when it was brought under her notice as a result of inquiries in England as to her whereabouts. It seems that Mrs. Olsen, who is about sixty years of age, on arriving in England some years ago, was in the possession of a considerable sum of money. This is stated to have been spent, and the woman, becoming a pauper in an East Devonshire village, was eventually taken care of in the union workhouse.—Woman's Life.
Women With Two Sculs.
At last science has thrown a great light upon that deepest of mysteries—the way of a woman. After solving most of the other riddles of life, the crowning victory of psychotherapeutics is the discovery that women have two souls, perhaps more. We have the word of President G. Stanley Hall, of Clark University, that there isn't a bit of doubt about it, and it is upon this hypothesis that he accounts for the "fickleness" of woman and "her erratic methods of jumping at conclusions, and her intuition." Wisely President Hall observes: "Woman is much more susceptible than man. There is good reason for this. We know that she has two or more souls. She may love and hate at the same time and the same per-

Women Fail in Business.
Women as a class have not become enmeshed in professional and business life, which are about the same thing, through their own desires, but through the working of economic forces beyond their control, says a writer in Appleton's. The socialization of home industries has altered women's status, and in many cases forced them upon the world. But in the world they are not making the place for themselves that they formerly held in the home, as equal factors with men. It is clear that, in the professions to-day, men are quite equal to the demands. There is no function of leadership, in other words, that any woman possesses that some man cannot exercise as well as she. The doors of opportunity are being closed to her again, because opinion seems to have crystallized into the belief that woman has not "made good" in the sense that she can stand alone, well supported, successful and unanxious,
upon her own work. One does not mean necessarily that the professional woman has failed, that she has not earned a living, or made a reputation, or both, but that she has not made herself an indispensable part of professional life, a factor of undisputed worth.
The opinion even of women on this subject is strangely unanimous. They are not satisfied with the position in which they stand in business nor with what they stand for. They have become unsettled about themselves and their ability to fight successfully shoulder to shoulder with men, given the opportunity, and are looking to themselves, for a wonder, to see if the explanation lies within.
Woman has failed to "make good" her pretensions to consideration as an independent leader and thinker in the professions and in business. Almost nowhere in the high places do we find women. Very few are they among physicians of note, few among lawyers, and few as executive heads of colleges or holders of professional chairs, few among the ranks of editors. And in the teaching and newspaper fields they have had great opportunities, whatever may be the case to-day.
Ready-to-Wear Garments.
That the dressmaker who makes individual dresses for individual wo-
men will ever disappear entirely is not likely, but there is no doubt that she is being pressed harder and harder by the ready-to-wear trade. A statistician who had occasion to co-figure a record on this subject says that the individual dressmaking trade shows a falling off of thirty per cent. in the number of persons employed since 1890. By natural increase, had there been no disturbing factor, the number ought to have doubled in this time. At the same time a tremendous falling off has been noted in the dress goods departments of retail stores, the decline in the last three years having been eighty per cent.
The great variety and cheapness of the ready-made garments, the surprising smartness of many of them and the great convenience of buying the garment ready made, appeal to an increasingly large number of women, and the manufacturers of such clothing are constantly improving their stock, both in variety and design. One manufacturer announces, according to Crerand's Cloak Journal, that for the fall of 1908 he has three hundred models to select from. This means everything from the simplest jumper dress up to magnificent creations of Irish lace and wonderfully wrought silks, so that if a woman needs a pretty gown on the instant for any occasion she has only to telephone for it.
In one Western town, with a population no greater than Yonkers, N. Y., a merchant advertises that he has eighty models of women's gowns to select from for the summer, ranging in price from $9 to $90, and the New York market supplies between $3000 and $4000 worth of women's dresses to one Chicago firm alone. One manufacturer of women's coats in New York has expended $30,000 on samples alone. They are not called samples, to be sure, models being considered a more elegant term, but samples they remain, and as such they will be sold at half the cost of production before the season is very old.

the big factories of New York receive from $2000 to $20,000 a year, and the trade employs 50,000 persons the year round, and from 150,000 to 250,000 in the busy seasons. The sales in women's cloak and suit departments in retail drygoods stores have increased 100 per cent. in the last four years.—New York Tribune.

THE AMERICAN CARRIAGE HORSE.
The Figures on the Lines Are the Ideal Measurements in Inches.
Raising Turkers.
The farmers of the United States generally could profitably increase the number of turkeys they produce. This class of poultry always sells well, and anyone who can give turkeys a good range can make a profit from them if he handles them correctly.
The excessive death rate during the first few weeks of the poults' existence is the leading drawback to turkey raisling, but most of the trouble which is so common at this stage can be avoided by careful and judicious management.
Be sure that the young do not get chilled while hatching or shortly afterwards, and have their coops made perfectly tight and free from drafts and dampness. Locate them in a well drained spot where the sun shines unobstructedly for the greater part of the day, until the arrival of sultry summer weather. This matter of freedom from dampness is very essential.
Keep the poults confined to the coop or to a covered run on damp, chilly mornings until all the dew has disappeared from the grass and weeds. Aside from such times, the youngsters may be allowed entire liberty after they are five or six days old. The mother turkey should be restricted, for a time at least, within limited range by means of a string or some other convenient method of this kind.
Vermin are frequent source of trouble and loss with poults and turkeys. This is a matter deserving of more attention than it usually receives, as lice are generally numerous on turkey fowls. One of the best things that can be done is to give the setting hen a thorough dusting with a reliable brand of louse powder two or three days before the eggs commence to hatch; this not only freezes the hen from the vermin but prevents the poults from contracting the vermin from their moth-

The Figures on the Lines Are th
er as soon as they are hatched. Watch the fowls carefully from time to time throughout the summer for indications of the presence of vermin, and give them treatment for same frequently. Bread crumbs or bread and milk make one of the best poults feeds for the first few days. After the first few meals an egg, hard boiled and chopped fine, may be added by way of variety. Also, commence feeding oatmeal and cracked corn or wheat, and green cut bone or meat in some form. Feed of en and a little at a time for the first few weeks. Frequent and careful feeding is very important. A supply of good grit for grinding the food, should be constantly accessible to the poults from the beginning.
Feeding the Herd.
Now, a word about feed. This is a subject to which you will have to give special and careful attention. You must not only look to the needs of your cattle, but you must endeavor to get their rations as nearly as possible from products of your own farm. Economy is one of your watchwords. But you must make it a study and it will take you several years, says a writer in Holstein-Friesian Register. Look first to the needs of your cows, and next to the cost of the feed. Your heifer calves should be fed sweet skim-milk for about six months, and you can mix with it a little corn meal and oil meal, or these can be fed separately. After six months, if on good pasture, they will require no feed; but as fall comes on they should not be allowed to run down and become poor before winter feeding is begun. This feed should consist of bran, shorts, oil meal, etc., with fodder, hay and straw for roughage. I would feed no corn. A few weeks before your heifer is due with her first calf you should begin feeding her a mixture of food rich in protein. Do not overfeed her, but gradually increase the feed until by the time she drops her calf she will be getting about all she wants to eat. You will find that she has made a very large udder and will start off with a large flow of milk. For a few days after calving, feed lightly, gradually increasing, and you will find her responding well to your attention. There is no
danger from milk fever with the first calf; but from then on, and especially with the third and fourth calves, you cannot feed so heavily before calving, neither will she require it; for by this time the habit of milk-giving will have been well formed.
Good Milkers.
High-grade cows are not any too plentiful and prices for such stock are high. Young milch cows that will yield from thirty-five to fifty pounds of milk per day are worth as many dollars. Farmers and breeders have recognized the demand for fine stock of this class and during the past year many excellent animals have been selected and kept for raising. Much of course depends upon this selection; the cows for both milk and butter are greatly improved by careful selection and feeding. The feeding is important. If an animal is stinted and starved and chilled during a period of its growth, it will never fully regain what it has lost, no matter what good treatment it subsequently receives. Successful breeders recognize this fully and provide for the winter, and are particularly careful to keep their young stock vigorous, healthy and growing through all the trying portions of the year. This midway treatment, before stock begins to produce, is often as important a matter as selection.
Pure breeds are not, of course, necessary-to success. It is not possible for every farmer to have pure breeds. He may be a number of years breeding up his herd to a satisfactory high grade standard. Good, milking cows of every breed, and of no particular breed, possess certain qualities in common which guide the farmer in the selection of dairy stock. According to the late Professor Alvord, of the Department of Agriculture, they have generally neat, well-balanced heads, light fore and heavy hind quarters, mild, gentle eyes, slop-

ing shoulders, rather than upright, large udders, good-sized teats, with well developed milk veins and mellow skin and soft, glossy coat. The milk of young cows is generally richer than that of old ones. The most profitable age of the milker is supposed to be from four to nine years. Yet for many years after that cows may be splendid milkers and highly profitable, but their milk becomes relatively somewhat poorer, and the animals eat more, especially during the winter. As animals grow older, having once become lean, they are more difficult to fatten.
Farm Poultry.
In speaking to the farmers of Greenfield, Mass., not long ago, Professor W. P. Brooks, of the State Agricultural College, considered poultry keeping from the standpoint of the farmer. New England he believed to be one of the best sections for poultry keeping, because of the markets and the quality of the soll. Less than one-fifth of the poultry products used in Massachusetts are now raised in that State.
A sheltered location on sandy soil was recommended for the poultry buildings. Glass fronts were to be avoided, a better plan being to leave the south side of the house entirely open. Hens in such houses are more hardy and will lay better than those in coops with glass fronts. The front should be protected by curtains in severe weather. Experience at the college has proved corn to be a better egg producer than wheat and is less expensive. Animal food is of great importance, more so than vegetable matter. Rye was found to be a great egg producing food, but usually is too high in cost.
Changing the Mood.
When General Leonard-Wood was a small boy he was called up in the grammar class. The teacher said: "Leonard, give me a sentence, and we'll see if we can change it to the imperative mood." "The horse draws the cart," said Leonard. "Very good. Now change the sentence to an imperative."
"Get up!" said young Wood.
Cocoanut Macaroons.
Add to a scant cupful of slifted flour one cupful of granulated sugar and two cupfuls of the best shredded cocoanut. Mix thoroughly, then fold into the mixture the whites of three eggs whipped to a stiff froth. Make into small flat cakes and bake in a slow oven until crisp and a 'dellicate brown—New York Telegram.
Damson Cheese.
Stew damson plums until tender, then drain off the juice and remove the skins and stones. To the pulp add the juice, weigh it, then boil until it is a dry paste. Stir in six ounces of sugar to every pound of fruit and keep stirring until the mixture will leave the sides of the kettle and adhere to the spoon in a solid mass. If it will yield to the finger without sticking when touched it is done. Turn into glasses or china molds. This is fine for meat or game, and many prefer it to currant jelly.—New York World.
Potato Croquettes .
A delicious way of serving potatoes is the following: Boil and mash twelve medium-sized white potatoes, using one tablespoonful of butter instead of milk. When they are nearly cold add beaten yolks of three eggs, one teaspoonful of chopped parsley, one-quarter teaspoonful of grated nutmeg and six drops of onion juice. Stir these ingredients together until they are smooth. Make up into small cone-shaped croquettes and stand away to harden. When they are firm roll them in the beaten whites of the eggs and cracker dust and fry in deep boiling lard until a light brown. This will make twenty-five croquettes.—New York Times.
Stuffed Potatoes.
Select potatoes of even size, cut a thin slice from one end that they may stand firm and put in the oven to bake; when well done, remove from the oven and with sharp scissors cut a lid from the upper end and scoop out the potato into a hot bowl with a teaspoon, keeping the skin whole; beat the potato in the bowl with a little cream, a teaspoonful of butter, a speck of salt and pepper, then fill the skins with the mixture, heaping it high on top; set the potatoes carefully on end and return to oven for ten minutes to heat. Serve on a platter with sprigs of parsley and a few tiny specks of butter. Boston Post.
Cornstarch Souffle.
Half an ounce of cornstarch, one cupful of milk, one tablespoonful of sugar, quarter of a teaspoonful of vanilla extract, two eggs, pastry to line pudding dish. Line a pudding dish with pastry, decorating the edges with pieces cut with a fancy cutter. Blend the cornstarch smoothly with a little milk and stir it into one cupful of milk when boiling. Cook for two or three minutes, and then stir in the sugar, yolks of eggs and vanilla extract. Whip up the whites of eggs to a stiff froth and lightly stir into the mixture. Pour into the lined dish and bake for about twenty minutes. Shake a little sugar over the top and serve at once with chocolate sauce. To make the chocolate sauce, roll one and a half ounces of grated chocolate in half a cupful of milk, remove from the fire and stir in one tablespoonful of sugar. Flavor with a few drops of vanilla extract.—New York Press.
HINTS FOR THE HOUSEKEEPER
Oil paintings may be cleaned by sponging with lukewarm water and drying thoroughly.
Acid fruit drink—Pour boiling water on mashed cranberries. When cold sweeten to taste.
To renovate black lace wash, the lace in water t5 which a little ammonia has been added, then rinse it in strong coffee.
Many housewives sprinkle water on the broom before sweeping to collect the dust and keep it from blowing around the room.
Buttermilk which has turned slightly sour is an excellent wash for the face. It is harmless and efficient and is a great purifier.
The best housekeeper is the one who passes less time in making things clean and more thought in keeping them clean as she goes.
Try adding a little lemon juice to the water when boiling rice. It gives the rice a nice white appearance, and also keeps the grains well separated. A place of flannel soaked in paraffin and rubbed over linoleum will preserve the surface and remove all dirt and stains, and make it last much longer. When bunches of sweet grass begin to lose its fragrance plunge them for a minute into boiling water and they will be again as aromatic as when first gathered. Dried lavender may be similarly treated. When filling oil lamps place a small lump of camphor in the oil vessel. It will greatly improve the light and make the flame clearer and brighter. If you have no camphor add a few drops of vinegar occasionally.
Siberian Roads Better Than Ours.
Far in the rear of the other New York to Paris racers, the poetical Scarfosilio telegraphs that he is flying after them over a plain decorated with irises and along a road so smooth and hard as to seem as if it had been made especially for the use of automobilists. Remembering what troubles the men in the Protos and Thomas cars had only a few days ago in traversing that same plain west of Harbin, it is difficult to avoid the suspicion that the Italian telegraphed one of his dreams of what he would like to encounter, rather than the observations of his waking hours.
However, weather does make a lot of difference, and much, more on a bad road than on a good one, and even if Scarfoglio did spread the irises on rather thickly, and even if he did slightly exaggerate the charms of his boulevards in the Siberian wilds, the fact remains that the leading contestants have made better time since they started from Vindivostock than they did in crossing the American continent. It took the Thomas car forty-two days to reach San Francisco, the distance of about 3000 miles having been lengthened, as everybody remembers, by storms of all the kinds there are, and by roads, near-roads and no roads that illustrated every fault any one of those varieties can display when it tries its very hardest.
The departure from Vladivostok was made on May 22, and Tomsk, which is at about the same distance from Vladivostok that San Francisco is from New York, was reached by the Protos on June 26. So that stage of the journey was made in thirty-five days, at a rate of not much less than 100 miles a day. Of course, that speed is nothing for powerful machines like these, and it shows that delays have been frequent and the roads wretched, but the progress of the cars has been surprisingly fast, considering that much of the route has been through Siberian wilds, where nothing more modern than a two-wheeled cart was ever seen before.
Now the racers are getting into lands comparatively civilized, and the roads will get better and better as they advance. Each day's run can therefore be expected from this time on to increase slowly, and by the time the Russian frontier is crossed each twenty-four hours will count on the score more than some weeks have hitherto done. From Berlin onward the only accidents to be apprehended will be due to reckless speed. The temptation to this will be strong, but men who have gone so far may be trusted to shun a smash-up with the goal in sight. From present indications two, and possibly all three of the cars now in the race will reach Paris before the beginning of August, a fortnight before their scheduled time. The failure to traverse Alaska and Eastern Siberia deprives the race of some of its hoped-for glory, but it remains a most remarkable journey—in some ways the most remarkable ever made by men.—New York Times.
No Mail on Bad Roads.
In order to secure good roads on the routes over which rural carriers deliver mail Fourth Assistant, Postmaster-General Degraw has issued a new regulation that mail will not be delivered on roads which are not kept in good condition. Some time ago the Fourth Assistant issued an order requiring postmasters at rural delivery offices to report to the Department the number of miles of road covered by rural delivery from their offices and the names of road officials having jurisdiction over each separate station of roads.
Letters are now being sent to these road officials notifying them that rural delivery will not be continued on roads which are not kept in condition to be traveled with facility and safety at all seasons of the year. They are requested to give attention to the roads as soon as practicable. New York has 1804 rural routes, made up of 1629 miles of macadam road and 39,352 miles of earth, gravel and sand roads.
Antos Ruin Macadam Roads:
Even the world famous roads of France are becoming so seriously damaged by the automobiles that are constantly thundering over them, that great alarm is felt lest they be ruined, and an international congress has been called to meet at Paris, October 11, to discuss plans for saving them from destruction. Our own government has taken alarm also, and the Bureau of Public Roads, Agricultural Department, has issued a statement. In regard to the road-de destroying tendencies of automobiles, saying:
"The modern fast-moving motor car is the greatest menace to macadam roads that has ever made its appearance. On some stretches of thoroughfare, especially in New England, where many broad and smooth roads have been constructed, the retrogression is not less than forty per cent. If some plan is not speedily devised for overcoming the bad effects the monetary loss will be stupendous and the good work of many years will go for naught."—Indiana Farmer.
Good Work in New York.
Since 1898 the State of New York has completed 378 miles of improved highways at State, county and town expense. The State no whats 1034 miles of roads under contract, and 977 miles of roads waiting the letting of contracts.

District Republicans
District Republicans
The adjourned convention of Republicans of the First Congressional District was held on Friday Aug. 14th, at Harris and East Broad Streets. Every county in the district was represented and the meeting was quite interesting. The main purpose was to nominate a candidate for Congress, select an elector and reorganize. A committee was appointed to select a, candidate for Congress and name an elector; the same is to report to the chairman by Sept. 7. Resolutions were introduced by Mr. L.E. Williams indorsing the administration of President Roosevelt and pledging support to Taft and Sherman.
Col. J. H Deveaux was re-elected chairman and Sol. C. Johnson, secretary.
Parallel Cases.
Below will be found two cases alike. The principal of one is colored and of the other white. Note the result, which will make you think deeply of the injustice of man:
"St. Charles, Mo., August 14.—Sheriff Hines, of St. Charles county, and the police of this city, assisted by armed citizens, are scouring the country for the youths who last Saturday night dragged Mrs. Catherine Stucker, 38 years old, a widow, from her bed and carried her more than a mile away to a deserted locality. Mrs. Stucker, bereft of reason and suffering from concussion of the brain, is in the county hospital as a result of her experience. She is not expected to recover.
"Moaning, her clothes torn into shreds and bleeding from numerous wounds, the woman was found early Sunday morning lying on the doorstep of a residence at 403 Morgan street, where she had been carried by her assailants following the attack. In a dazed way she told of the treatment she had received and then lapsed into unconsciousness. She grew worse steadily. At times she became violently insane.
"The police believe Mrs. Stucker was the victim of young men who attended a dance Saturday night in a hall near her home. These men were intoxicated, the police say, and left the dance hall shortly after midnight, proceeding in the direction of Mrs. Stucker's house."
"Springfield, Ill., Aug. 14.—Mrs. Earl Hallam, wife of a conductor on the Springfield Consolidated, Railway company, was dragged from her bed at midnight last night by a Negro, who took her into a garden in the rear of the house and assaulted her.
"Mrs. Hallam was badly bruised about the neck and body.
"Her husband does not get home until 2 o'clock in the morning.
"Five Negroes were arrested today on suspicion."
These are adjoining states. The cities are not very far apart. The sentiment and temperment of the people are about alike, but it shows that a colored man's crime is more despicable than that of his white brother. We do not condone the act of the colored brute nor that of the white brutes, and legal punishment should be accorded to them all.
'About the Springfield savagery,' we fully agree with The New York Tribune when it says that—
"The hooligans of Springfield, Ill., were in their element on Friday night. An abominable crime had been committed, the perpetrator of which was promptly arrested and imprisoned, with every possible prospect of being punished to the full extent of the law. That prospect was not, however, satisfactory to the hooligans. On the contrary, it seems to have been distinctly unsatisfactory and irritating. The mob was doubtless indignant at the commission of the crime, but its chief fury was roused by the fact that a quick witted and tactful Sheriff had succeeded in reserving the criminal for the orderly processes of the law, instead of surrendering him to the caprices of lawless savagery.
"Accordingly it determined to have a victim anyway. If it could not punish in illegal fashion the guilty man, it would make some innocent folk pay in his stead the penalty of balked mob passions. So it set out to commit larceny, arson and murder on a wholesale scale, and it did so to an extent and with a success which were doubtless pleasing to its criminal instincts, until the bullets of the militia cooled its lawless ardor. The balance sheet was made up yesterday. On the one side, a brutal and revolting assault, which was practically certain to be punished promptly to the full extent of the law. On the other side, four or more persons killed, some of them quite innocent of wrongdoing, some dozens injured, and a number of shops and houses plundered and burned—and a monstrous stain put, upon the good name of the capital city of the third state of the Union.
"It would be superfluous to remark that such a transaction does not pay. All whose opinion is worth anything were convinced of that before. The others, those who did tlifis-thung, are not easily to be convinced of anything save under the impact of a bullet. The episode was simply an outbreak of that savagery which still linger among reputedly civilized folk, mingled with that criminality which seems irrepressible even in the most enlightened states. There is no occasion for being censorious against Springfield. The city, the old home of Lincoln, was shamed and disgraced by the deeds of Friday night, but in that it merely shared the shame and disgrace of many other communities in many states and in all parts of Union. It is a depressing reflection that such things so persistently occur. But no such depression should be sufficient to deter every law-abiding citizen from exerting every effort to make such savagery as infrequent as possible, and as costly as possible to its perpetrators in the only way which counts with such as they; and perhaps, one of these days, to make it altogether unknown in a land of law."
F. A. B. Church.
On account of the disappointment on the part of a preacher on Sunday, the services were conducted by the deacons. The timely and instructive alk of Deacon Henry Minis and the fervent prayer of Deacon Oscar Elmore were warmly received. The Rev. A. W. Bryant of Valdosta, Ga. will preach for us tomorrow. We had a very pauful conference on last Monday evening despite the multiplicity of very tedious business transacted. Each member of this church is required to register before Nov. 17, 1908, by virtue of a resolution of the church at the last regular conference. The object is to know the exact number of members if possible preparatory to calling a pastor. Register your name at once, at the next service you attend with the church clerk or place in the registration boxes at the doors of the church. The grim reaper death have visited our ranks and taken one of the old land marks of the church in the person of Sister Elsie Ward. Few if any living at this period can claim membership of this church, dating from the sainted Rev Andrew Marshall's time over half a century ago. Truly she was a devout Christian, have always held her church in high esteem, a noble character of womanhood, a beautiful example of a christian's life, she has bequeathed the sons and daughters of the old historic church only to build higher pyramids of nobleness in Christian mathood and womanhood Sister Amanda. Bee of East Savannah prayer house and Bro. Connuspard also succumbed on Friday of last week. The relatives and friends of our deceased sister and brother have our deepest sympathy. The memorial services of our late pastor Rev. J W Carr, D I, will be held Sunday August 30th. News have been received already that a number of ministers throughout Georgia as well as those of this city will be present to pay a tribute of respect to the memory of the deceased. An appropriate program have been arranged
for the occasion which no doubt will be impressive.
The following program will be render:

St. Philip Dots.

Lee text was from Paul letter to the Galatians 2nd chapter and 20th verse, subject "Fellowship with Christ." This great subject was discussed with earnestness and if we live the life of this great man Paul as laid down in this chapter how happy would our lives be in this world. Rev. Lee handles his discourse with ease and every word that was spoken can but draw the attention of his hearers. Rev. Lindsay preached at 8:36 p.m. This servant of God is ready at all time expound the gospel to the world and point out the way from darkness into the marvelous light of God and have a great work to do.

Brussels, Belgfum, fills half of its las!
issue with an article by A. J. Wav-
ters, the well-known geographer, de.
\Serlbing the adventures of a Belgian
‘named Adler, who has made a jour.
ney of 7000 miles in Africa in thi
Wide regions between the routes of
explorers and prospectors. Adler's
idea wes to discover new mineral
“districts and to sell the knowledge
he acquired to the colonial govern-
Rents or to mining companies.
Ueaving Cape Town in March,
1993, he reappeared in Brussels tn
April last, Ave years and a month
after he set, out on hfs African wane
derings. He was a prospector with’
out grub stakes, and for four-fifths
of his long journey he depended upon
the resources of the country and the
helpfulness of the natives to whom
ke gave medical services, to supply
himself and his half dozen porters
with food. He traveled on foot most
of the way, and as he advanced north
he sizzagged far east and west. As
she was looking for new mineral
sources he kept as much as possible
in unknown regions. He has made
the longest journey ever accom-
plished by one man in Africa and
has seen an important area of en-
Brely new country.
Adler's story as to his route is con-
firmed by letters from colonial offi-
clals, missionaries and traders whom
he met on the way. As to the results
of his search for minerals, he is un-
communicative except that he says
‘hey are important and will be re«
vealed, when he had made arrange-
ments, to those who are interested.
Wie traversed the whole of Portu-
guese East Africa from south to
north, followed a tortuous route
back and forth in the mountainous
so&thwestern part of German East
Africa, spent many months in the ex-
treme eastern part of the Congo
State in the region north of the
Lukua River, where the streams are
still marked on the maps in broken
Iines because they have not been ex-
plored, and finally made his way
own from the Congo to the Atlantic.
At the start two other prospectors
“were with him as his partners, but
“when difficulties began to thicken
‘they abandoned the onterprise and
he went on his way alone.
£ Reaching a mining camp not far
from the ‘delta of the Zambesi
River, he found the miners consider-
ably excited over the discovery of a
piece of gold, which, they sald, bore
the effigy of King Solomon and was
tanother proof that this region was
the ancient Ophir and the domain of
the Queen of Skeba. At the north end
‘Of Lake Nyassa Adler met Dr. Koch,
ho was studying the causes of ‘the
fattle disease which had wiped out
hhundreds of thousands of the native
eattle. Adler says he found etery-
where that the rinderpest had been
equally destructive to the big game.,
He found, however, great herds of
antelope, and In the southwest part
of German East Afriea ions, leop-
ards, cheetahs, hyenas and jackals
aro the plague of the country, prey~
ing upon game and cattle. The gov-
ernment had offered a premium of
fifteen rupees for each lion and ten
repees“for cach leopard killed.
He spent:some time in the country
f Merero, of whom we have heard
Bary ‘ittie since many pages of a
Book yera given to him some twenty
yedrs"ago. Adler says that Merero
and a neighboring potentate, Koma,
Are tha two most powerful chiefs in
German, East Africa and that each

60 spears in time of war. Koma
has -given, the Germans no ead of

that his spears were no match for:

Throughout that rich region,
where the’ Germans have done little

as many as 5000 to 8000 cattle, the
Property of these two chiefs, that
grazed far and wide under the care
Jof herders and were driven into
kraals at night to keep them from
beasts of prey.
Adler prospected all along the
route where the Germans are now
building a good wagon rond 250
{miles in length to connect Lakes Tan-
|ganyika and Nyassa. It is only &
few miles east of a simflar road that
the British have long maintained in
their own territory, and the’ Ger-
‘mans decided that they must have
equally good facilities.
He describes an incident such as:
probably has not occurred before in
the experience ot the avhites In
Africa. When Adler reached the
Uttle station of Kabambare, an iso-
lated post of the Congo State, ho
found much excitement over the dis-
appearance of’ a native woman, A
gorilla had appeared on the out-
skirts of a native village and, .Jurk-
ing in the grass, had seized one of a
number ofcwomen, the wife of a
State soldier, and carried her off Into
the forest. Lieutenant Gosmes took
a number of men and started in pur-
suit. It was believed that the wo-
man would be found alive, but hope
was nearly abandoned when a whole
week ‘was spent in alternately los-
ing and finding the tracks of the
animal. He was at length brought
to bay in the depths of the forest
aid killed. The woman was with
him and was still alive, though she
died the next day from her long
agony of fright and suffering. She
was able to speak a little of thé ter-
rible story before she died. The
goriila had fed her as well as bim-
self with the frults and edible roots
of the forest which he collected.
Adler was in miserable plight
throughout the latter part of his
journey, He and his faithful men
were almost without food for days
at a time, and were on the point ‘of |
perishing more than once when they
would reach, perhaps, two or three |
huts occupied by the poorest of na-_
tives, who always helped the suf-
ferers to the limit of their ability. |
He remained at one place for efght |
months, killing game, which he ex-
changed with the natives for vege-
table food.
At one of the white stations he"
wrote to the Congo State Govern-
ment at Brussels asking permission
to prospect for minerals in parts of
the Katanga mineral regions that |
have not yet been studisd. A year
elapsed before he reached a place
where he found that his letter had
been answered. His request had
been provisionally granted and he
had been assigned to one of the
State posts as his headquarters. He
was very weak and ill, however, and
the only hope of life seemed to de-
pend upon his return to Europe. He
was assisted to go home.
Adler says that the finest develop-
ment he saw in all his long journey
was at Baudoulnville, on the ‘west
shore of Lake Tanganyika, ‘in the
Congo State, where the Catholic mis-
sionaries have gathered around
them several thousands of natives
who lve in neat Houses allgredcon
regular streets. Here are primary
and industrial schools, many work-
shops, cultivated fields, orchards,
herds of cattle, wonderful kitchen
gardens and a church thet is one of
the finest edifices yet erected by na-
tive labor.

some parts of the central nervous
system.”
Commenting on this subject, Dr.
S. G. Evans, Surgeon, United States
Navy, who was present during the
examination, says:
“The fact that the material found
in the skull was certainlysthe re
mains at least of brain tissue a3
shown by the microscopic. eramina-
tion made by Dr. Spear at the time,
is rather remarkable. To my mind,
however, the most practical point
elicited by the examination was the
fact that he had evidently suffered to
some extent, if not severely, from
rheumatism or one of the manifesta-
[tons of urie acta diathesfs. ‘The ua-
doubted evidence of a cavity in the
lung and the fact that the cavity was
at the apex, would also tend to prove
'dedth from pneumonia or phthisis.””

Consul Frank S. Hannah, of Mag-
deburg, writes that in a recent Issue
of a German technical paper, the use
of steel ‘bands to take the place of
leather belting for the transmission
of power is stated to have proved
practicable after repeated tests by
a firm in Charlottenburg, its advan-
tages beng given as follows:
‘The points of superiority claimed
for this new method for the trans-
mission of power are the ‘following:
On account of ts solidity « much
narrower band can’ be used, one-
sixth of the width of the use of
leather band betng sufficient: as a
result of this the steel band ts not
so heavy as the usual band, and, as
it can be very tightly adjusted, the
distance between the engine and the
machine Is not a matter of impo
tance, as is the case with the leather
belting, where the transmission of
power is depenent upon the weight
of the hanging belt; by a un{que con-
tact, the slipping is much reduced,
experiments showing not over one-
tenth of one per cent. The entire
loss of power {s very small, about one
per cent. By the lightness of weight

Honorable Treatment at the Hands of

‘The House adopted the joint resolu-
tion for a remission of $10,800,000 of
the Chinese Indemnity growing out of
the Boxer troubles of 1900. Even with
this concession, sufficient remains to
pay all claims arising from the up-
rising.
‘This attitude cannot fall to be ap-
preciated in China. It will do more
than a thousand empty speeches to
cement friendly relations between the
two nations.
The sum required by this country
‘noticeably smaller than that of tho
vther nations concerned—was de-
signed to cover all American lossé3
arising from the insurrection.” Our
authorities were wise enough and
humane enough to eradicate, so far
as possible all Idea of punitive dam-
ages—a fact, which has been mado

“than necessary to meet these claims,
the United States 1s doing the only

Subject: Foes of the Flag.
Brooklyn, N. Y.—Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church, Hamburg avenue and Weirfield street, the Rev. Ira Wemmell Henderson, pastor, took as his text Psalms 20:5: "In the name of our God we will set up our banners." He said:
The flag of America is the symbol of her conception and of her progress. Its stars and stripes and field of blue bear eloquent though silent testimony to the method of her making, the character of her sons and the influences that have militated for all that is best in her national life. Whether we be descended from the long line of the forefathers who laid the foundations of America deep and broad and strong in the everlasting rock of the truth of the living God or are but lately naturalized citizens of the land we love, the flutter of the nation's ensign finds responsive pulse within our hearts. For the flag typesefies the soul of the people, the hope of the nation, the sacrifice of the host who, living and dead, have poured out upon the altar of a true devotion to this land of promise a meed of service, for the welfare of the country and the glory of Almighty God.
No true patriot is he who can gaze upon the beauty of "Old Glory" without pride and a warming heart. For every star has a history and tells a mighty story; every ruddy stripe is, dyed in the running fountain of a loyalty and willing sacrifice the like of which history cannot surpass; every bar of white reveals the purity of the limpid, true ideals that run, though often hidden, at the core and centre of our nation's life. Blue as the arching heavens her star strewn field is redolent with a hope as vast as the profundity of zenithal skies. Bathed in a nation's sufferings and dedicated to a nation's liberty, the flag of our country has galvanized its power and will wield a future strength because it was set against the boundless of the upheld by the efficiency of His mightiness. Ever remembering the consecration for which it stands, the services of which it speaks, the suffering to which it bears mute tribute, the hope eternal which its proud folds counsel, we shall never stray afar, or trail its beauty in the dirt of individual impurity or of national dishonor.
But glorious as is the history of the flag and magnificent as is the progress and achievement over which it waves, it must be sedulously guarded from subtle dangers if we are to preserve faultless for the welfare of posterity the heritage which we have received. No nation has a greater, a more auspicious, a more logically magnificent future than America. The deeds of yesterday bespeak larger capacities and opportunities as yet unused. The sun of our national greatness is just aristag, the glory of our flag has but begun. What the limits of the future may be no man may mark. We are entering the sublime age of human history. And America stands in the vanguard of progression. Of our coming eminence we may but dream. No prophecy is to be ignored, for no prophecy can tell the half of the glory God will reveal in and through America in the coming days if we guard our hearts from evil, our minds from wilful error, and our flag from shame.
The dangers to our national greatness and to the spotlight integrity of our flag as the embodiment of our national life and aspiration are subtle dangers. They are not so much overt as abstract, not so much material as intellectual and spiritual, not so much objective as subjective, not so much outward as internal. No sane man would underestimate the heinousness of the material sin which threatens our flag to-day, no one has any delusions as to the size and the determination of the organized and defiant forces for evil which afflict this land. But, after all, the forces for evil that are allied and aggressive and overt, that are determined to rule or ruin, to gain their ends by foul means or fair, are not half so dangerous to the public welfare and to the destiny of America, as the more subtle and abstract dangers that are resident in the hearts and minds of people who want to maintain the glory of the flag, the integrity of the nation and the glory of Jehovah in our midst. When all is said and done there are more people whose faces are set for heaven than toward hell. The great host of the people want the right; they do love God, they long to see the beauty of His glory in the land of the living. The danger is that those good people have the size of the enemy and taking the measure of his power, may too oft and too long accept evil conditions as necessary simply because they are ancient or fixed; that they shall be too careless and indifferent concerning the value of a stern fight for the right in the face of intrenched iniquity; that they shall be slovenly and inexact and dishonest in their thinking; and heedless of the claims of the spirit of the living God in the individual and national life.
The flag of America, as the banners of the psalmist, is set up in the name and to the glory of Almighty God. We may leave it off our coins or place it thereupon, it matters little, but in our heart of hearts "In God we put our trust." Over against that flag and opposed to the laws of Deity we have in our midst to-day organized and aggressive dangers that threaten the vitality of the nation. They are' strong, they are armed, they are entrenched, they do not care to die. But they are not final, their length of days may be great but they are not eternal. They make or do death for life. They will go as they must. The danger lies not so much in the fact that they are desperate and determined as in the disposition of good men and those who love the land as they love their God, to despair and to doubt and
to disperse. A greater danger to the flag than all the sins that assail it is the weak-heartedness of the people of God. A bad thing is of no effect for long against the efforts of the organized militant armies of God Almighty, if they will take heart and keep it, and keep the fight everlastingly up. What of Valley Forge and the first Bull Run? Remember Yorktown and Appomattox and keep on! Such spirit and such hope are invincible as they are unquenchable. Without them the very fabric of our national civilization is endangered as no other oo can harm.
No sin has a longer mortgage upon the future than we care, under the grace and empowerment of the living God. to allow. We may not see the breath leave sin as we have planned, but if we will struggle sin will die. It is for us to labor. It is for God to direct. It is for us to follow. He shall lead. However insurmountable the obstacle or time-honored the grievous sin, God will enable us to overcome through the might of His power if we will but serve with steadfastness and fidelity. But God Himself cannot bring the victory to an army and how and how access to a plush host that is afraid of a long fight and a hard one. No, my friends, weak-kneed and weak-hearted plety is a more subtle and dangerous foe to the nation than all the forces of wickedness combined.
Another danger is the danger of indifference. Men do not care about the public good, they are too busy or too lazy or too self-consumed and centered to think about the public weal. When sin stalks "the street they stay at home with an easy chair and a cosy nook for comfort, saying to themselves, "I have enough. What can I do? Let others battle; I am on one. It is as though the hand said to the face, a Pressed "I have no need of these." Such men are enemies, twofold enemies, to the republic.
A still more subtle danger is that of loose, careless, slovenly, dishonest thinking. The glory, of our schools is that they fit men to think. But how few of our citizenship take the time or the trouble to think deeply, thoroughly, conclusively, with a real and painstaking effort not to justify a theory or a preconception, but to ascertain the facts and to comprehend the truth. In the press and in the pulpit, at the bar and in the business world, dishonest and lazy intellectual effort is as rife as it is appalling. Jesus said "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." Jesus never dignified thought as a means to force facts, to justify preconceptions or as a means to stultify the truth. Jesus was a clear thinker, a close thinker, an honest thinker. He wanted the truth. He was not interested in supporting the theories. He gave His life to the revelation and the comprehension of the eternal truth of God. But to-day how otherwise it is, even after centuries of example of the unwisdom of dishonest thought, among even the followers of the Christ who was the embodifient of the truth. The press twists fact and truth to justify the life, too often, for the public good. The pulpit descendants with stout wisdom, too often, upon the errors and inconsistencies of movers and insists that bid fair to challenge or to overthrow, not rolligor, but the ecclesiastical status quo. The lawyer defeats justice by the maze of unhealthy and obnoxious technicalities and perversions of the spirit of the law. The business man glosses sin for a consideration. And so it goes. Close thinking is too hard, clear thinking is uncomfortable, honest thinking is unprofitable. Therefore, let us think loosely: let us think good is bad—for profit; let us clothe the ancient life and call it truth, that the status quo may be preserved. The danger is evident. May the God of truth protect us from it.
Another danger is the prevalent inclination to forget and to dismiss religion. No theory of government, no system of economies, no discipline of philosophy, method of life can endure wholesomely and vigorously except there be foundations laid in the religious consciousness of man. Without the saving, conserving, transforming and inspiring presence and power of the spirit of the living God as a resident fact and force in the individual and national life we cannot maintain the integrity of our flag or the health of the people. No nation can realize its greatness, as can no individual, without God. In Him we live, without and more and have the power of God. He is the source of all light and progress. Ecclesiasticalism may misrepresent Him as it has aforetired done. But let us never forget Him. For He is inescapable. He is greater and greater and more beautiful than all our theories about Him. He is our shield, our defense, our guide, our love and our friend. We can do nothing without Him. With Him we may do anything. This is elemental, it is simple. It is infinite and everlasting truth. Let us never confuse disaffections with churches and ministers and creeds with atheism. However unsatisfactorily and falteringly God's children may reveal Him to their fellows, let us never forget Him. let us never cease to serve Him. The danger is that drifting from the church men may drift from religion. The danger is that leaving the Christ of the churches, with rather much less reason than more, they shall lose their vision of, and shall deny the Christ of God. Nothing could be more dangerous to America than that. In the day that America forgets Jesus let America place her flag at half mast. For in His truth lies her greatness and in the appropriation of Him by the nation lies the hope of the ages that are yet to come.
What is Life?
Our business is, not to build quickly, but to build upon a right foundation and in a right spirit. Life is more than a more competition as between man and man; it is not who can be done first, but who can work best; not who can rise highest, but who is working most patiently and lovingly in accordance with the designs of God.—Joseph Parker.

The Tallest Tree.
The tallest tree in the world so far as has been ascertained is an Australian gum tree of the species eucalyptus regnans, which stands in the Cape Otway range. It is no less than 415 feet high. Gum trees grow very fast. There is one in Florida which shot up forty feet in four years, and another in Guatemala which grew 120 feet in twelve years. This corresponds to a rise of ten feet in a year, or nearly one foot a month.—Milwaukee Sentinel.
Northern and Southern Roasts
The Northern idea as to coffee is to roast it a light brown and brew it into a thin liquid resembling tea. The Southern idea is to roast the coffee to a rich, dark brown and make it into a thick black, frothy liquid of pronounced strength and flavor. The Southern roast is by far the most economical, for a very small quantity with an extra amount of water will give a coffee up to Northern table standards, while the usual quantity made in the usual way satisfies the Southern taste for a strong sustaining beverage. These facts should be kept in mind in buying coffee. To be assured of satisfactory results, one should use a brand prepared according to Southern idea—say Luzianne Coffee, put up in New Orleans and now sold everywhere throughout the South. We know of no better brand on the market for all around family use and for economy of expenditure.

Trouble a Bird's Nest Causes.
A hatpin used by a pair of swallows as the foundation for their nest, hulled between two wires, put the entire police alarm system of the suburb of Ballard out of business Saturday. The police alarm wires from Ballard to headquarters at the city hall werg tested box by box until the trouble was located. It was discovered that difficulty lay between the box at Fremont and the one next south. The electrician could find nothing more serious than a swallow's nest.
Investigation showed that the nest, which stretched from one wire to another, a distance of about eight inches, was built on a hatpin, which touched both wires and short circuited the whole system—Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

I took her to the best doctor in the city and he said that she would have the sores until she was six years old. But if I had depended on the doctor my baby would have lost her mind and died from the wank of aid. But I used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment and she was cured in three months. Alice L.

Governor Smith Disapproves Acts of Legislature.
POLICEANDFIREMENMUSTPAY
Municipalities Should Make Free Transportation of Employees Part of Consideration for Franchises.
Atlanta, Ga.—The activity of Governor Hoke Smith's veto pen is a subject of considerable comment at the state capitol. Governor Smith has vetoed four bills sent him by the legislature, and his disapproval hangs over several more, it is stated.
The school book bill was the first general bill to die under the governor's pen stroke.
The appropriations to the agricultural experiment stations at Griffin and Waycross went next.
Then came the death knell for the bill allowing firemen and policemen to accept free rides from street railways.
The action of the governor in vetoling the fireman-police pass bill created little surprise, as the impression has been general that he would veto the measure. He has no decided objection to the policemen and firemen riding free on the street cars, but he insists that the companies be made to haul them free in return for privileges they receive from the several municipalities of the state. He is opposed to the men accepting free transportation from the companies, whether it be a courtesy to the city or a courtesy to the men.
The veto also fell with fatal effect on the local bill abolishing the city court of Barnesville.
The bill appropriating 55,000 each to the experiment stations at Griffin and Waycross was also vetoed by Governor Smith. The governor stated in connection with his veto that he does not consider the institution at Waycross a branch experiment station, and reiterates his opinion, expressed in his inaugural address, that the experiment station at Griffin should be moved to the State College of Agriculture at Athens.
It is doubtful if any governor of Georgia during the past twenty-five years has established such a record for killing bills as has Governor Smith this year.
The governor has approved the measure known as the "money shark" bill.
Railroad Granted Charter.
Atlanta, Ga.-A charter was granted by Secretary of State Phil Cook to the Atlanta Northeastern aRilroad company, which proposes to construct a railroad between Atlanta and the town of Cumming, passing through the towns of Alpharetta and Roswell, a distance of about forty miles. It is set forth in the petition that the line will be operated by."steam, gasoline, animals or electricity," or such other mechanical power as may be decided upon. The present purpose is said, is to use electrical power. The company is to be capitalized at $50,000.
State News in Brief.
The cotton crop in thirty south Georgia counties is reported to State Entomologist E. L. Worsham to be suffering from black root, which he estimates will reduce the crop in that section of the state by 10 per cent. The counties which report this black root are Columbia, McDuffie, Washington, Blbb, Talbot, Harris, Muscogee, Chattooga, Marion, Sumter, Macon, Houston, Pulaski, Dooly, Stewart, Webster, Randolph, Terrell, Calhoun, Dougherty, Early, Worth, Colquitt, Thomas, Brooks, Lowndes, Berrien, Montgomery, Tattnall, Effingham and Pierce.
The Georgia State Agricultural Society which met in Gainesville selected Quitman, Brooks county, as its next meeting place and elected the following officers: President, J. J. Connor of Bartow; first vice president, R. F. Crittendon of Randolph. Other officers are chosen by the executive committee and as yet their terms have not expired.
According to an affidavit made by Gene Bryant, a negro, Jule Howard, a Harris county white man who last year was sent up for the murder of Dozier Huckabee, another young white man of that county, is not guilty of the crime.
Claiming that the city of Macon was negligent in allowing a pile of cotton to be stored on the street. J. H. Shaw, who was seriously injured by colling with the obstruction, has sued that city for $10,000 damages.
Macon citizens have raised a fund of $10,000 to be used for the purpose of holding a state fair in that city
It was deemed advisable to adjourn the Spalding county superior court, and 'allow the farmers to return to their work, as a very seasonable rain has fallen in the last two days, which will be of vast benefit to the growing crops.
The plant of Dawson Variety Works of Dawson was destroyed by fire. Loss $100,000, with no insurance.
David Delk has been appointed postmaster at Mount Hope, Bryan county, vice D. M. Beggs resigned.
Tax Receiver Steed of Augusta has completed a summary of tax returns for that city, which show a decrease of $24,840, due to the closing of the saloons since the prohibition law went into effect.
In removing the front of the brick building of the J. H. Kelly company at Monticello, which was built in 1886, preparatory to the placing of new show windows, a jar containing the following named deposits was found in one of the corner stones: A copy of the Atlanta Constitution bearing date of September 1, 1886, in which was contained an account of the Charleston earthquake, a copy of the Weekly Madisonian of same date, a copy of the Jasper County News, a copy of Grier's Almanac of 1886 and coins of various kinds.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE
The Horse Swappers' Convention, which met in Cartersville, was attended by about six hundred members. Traveling mule and horse traders in their picturesque glpsy wagons, came from all directions, and every man in Bartow, Cobh, Cherokee, Gordon, Paulding, Polk and Murray counties who has an animal with four legs and strength enough to get here, was on hand. The horse swapping convention was unique in more than one particular. There were no rules governing the classification of animals eligible to entry upon the trading marts, the only requirement being that the "critter" must be on the ground where it can be seen, and must have four legs upon which it might stand, if able or inclined. For the sake of appearance, it was requested that all "critters" have hair upon them, but this was by no means required. Each and every member was supposed to be his own judge of "horse flesh," and to those who got worsted little sympathy was extended. That was his own misfortune, and it is against the unwritten law of the horse swappers to "squeal." Many trades and sales were recorded.

Masonic Notes.
The following Speaks For Itself.
New Bedford, Mass., July 27, 1908.
Charles C. Johnson, G. M.,
Alken, South Carolinna,
M. W. Str. and Dear Brother:
M. W. Sir and Bear Brother.
Replying to your favor of the 25th would say that no invitation has been extended to any body of York or Compact Masons to be present and participate with this Grand Lodge in its Centennial Celebration this coming September; none will be extended, and if any so-called Mason or Masons of that kith or kin, should present himself or themselves, there will be no courtesy wasted on him or them, and they most certainly would not be admitted to the lines, or admitted to any of the exercises. All assertions that any courtesies have been proffered them by the brethren of Prince Hall Grand Lodge are lies, and impudent lies at that. Their one purpose is to destroy the interest which the true and lawful brethren are taking in the Centennial, and I sincerely trust no one will be so weak as to place the least credence in anything they may say.
Sincerely and fraternally yours,
(Signed) FREDERICK S. MONROE,
(Seal.) Grand Secretary.
The Slothful Mason.
Solomon says: "By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house dropeth through." Labor is the salt of the earth. Everything that God has made must work or die. God is Himself the chief worker of the universe. One moment's cessation of the vast machinery which works the planetary world would result in universal destruction. All that God, has made is founded upon unceasing motion, either by animate activity or the unseen revolutions of chemical transformation. Man himself comes nearest to a direct violation of this divine law of energy. In Freemasonry this law is made the condition of life. The drone has no business in the hive of the laborers. Every Mason must work, either by the sweat of brains or hands, or step aside. If all, or nearly all, refuse to work, "the house dropeth through." Time will destroy the most substantial temples of the world if left alone. We must not only build, but we must preserve; and we can only do this by unceasing toil. Labor is God's signet to success; for "if ye will not work neither shall ye eat."
Many good Masons have lost their influence for good by indifference and slothfulness. As soon as the novelty wears off, or one becomes dissatisfied for one cause or another, or falls to be promoted as rapidly as he asked to be, he ceases to take interest in the work and his usefulness ceases. These are the sliths referred to by Solomon. Slothful Masons are an absolute impediment to the prosperity of the order.—Orphans' Friend.
"Weep and You Weep Alone, Never!"
"Laugh and the world laughs with you; Weep and you weep alone."
To our minds the above couplet is poetry of both rhythm and beauty, and if most surely tells a partial truth. Most writers of all ages, when it has been theirs to chronicle their judgment along this or similar lines, have given forth expressions, for practical purposes, akin to that of Ella Wheeler Wilcox, above quoted.
"If you take a smiling visage
You'll meet a smile."
says the poet, Alcot. And so this truth in both poetry and prose, has been written and rewritten, said and re-said, by men and women of both high and low estate. So pronounced is its truth and so firmly has it fixed its abode in the hearts of the people that it is now regarded as a fundamental truth, against which no argument in rebuttal is raised. But "weep and you weep alone" does not enjoy the favored status of its antecedent; for the truth it purports to establish is assailable and vulnerable at first attack.
"I dread the day," for it will be a sad day and a mad day, when human sympathies fall to blend with sorrows, walls and palms — when friends shall cease to "hold fellowship with friends" in joy and gladness, and in sorrows and sighings, One never weeps alone. Impossible! As impossible as it is to destroy the invisible cord of friendship or to erase the relationship of man to man, both which have their foundings in the unfathomable conception of divinity.
Alone, in its fairest signification, is fallacious, and findeth not a legitimate place in the realm of expression. For it is verily an impossible state in which to be. One, as was Alexander Selkirk, may roam in solitude, shut off from friends. Even if one be similarly situated as regards friends, he will be troubled by foes; and, withal, there must be those who know that, he was who wonder if he is and hope where he will be. In his absence some sorrow, and if, in solitude, he weeps, there are some, somewhere, who knew him, "who weep" with him. For absence oftimes makes some heart "grow fonder," and the memory of the absent one dampens the cheek with tears of sympathy. "Weep and your weep alone," never, while the cord of friendship and love lasteth. Never while memory holds a place in the being of humanity and
sympathy claims abode in the domain of rationality. ROY REGINALD.
TENTH ANNUAL SESSION.
The Ladies of the Eastern Star Had a Large Gathering in-Macon.
The Grand Order of the Eastern Star held its tenth annual session in Macon, beginning on Tuesday morning of last week. Representatives from nearly a hundred Chapters were present.
The Grand Chapter was opened in the Royal and Exalted Degree of Amaranth, with the usual ceremonies. This opening ceremony is very beautiful, and is always enjoyed, especially the pretty opening song.
Royal Grand Patron, Sol C. Johnson, and Royal Grand Matron, Viola E. Hart, presided, who planned to have the sessions like clock work and the business dispatched in a satisfactory manner. Immediately after the opening exercises, the various committees were appointed and the Grand Officers rendered their reports. The session was heightened by the presence of Mrs. J. H. Dickerson, the talented wife of Grand Master Dickerson of the Jurisdiction of Florida. Mrs. Dickerson is Past Grand Royal Matron of her state and is at present its talented Royal Grand Lecturer. Her address to the Grand Chapter was an able one. She is a fluent and eloquent speaker and her words were heartily applauded.
Another pleasant feature of the Grand Chapter session was the timely address of the Royal Grand Lecturer, Mrs. K. E. Dudley, of Dublin. She has made quite a study of her position and is fully capable of demonstrating and explaining the intricate working of the Rite.
The reports of the Grand Officers show that the Rite is in an excellent condition.
Tuesday night a literary program was carried through, at Steward's Chapel A. M. E. Church. Quite an outpouring of the citizens was had at this time and it was indeed a literary feast. The program was well carried out and each number was a gem.
Wednesday morning routine work was done. After calling on the several members were requested to speak of their work during the year. This invitation was accepted and many encouraging words were spoken showing that there is improvement along every line.
The reports of the several committees were of an inspiring kind. After all reports were in, the officers were elected as follows: Sol. C. Johnson, Royal Grand Patron; Mrs. Viola E. Hart, Royal Grand Matron; Mrs. J. C. Miller, Royal Grand Associate Matron; Mrs. Nellie Hardy., Royal Grand Treasurer; Mrs. Mary L. Ayers, Royal Grand Secretary; Mrs. Dora Cooper, Royal Grand Conductress; Mrs. Mattle Freeman, Royal Grand Associate Conductress; Mrs. K. E. Dudley? Royal Grand Lecturer; We will publish the appointed officers next week. The Grand Chapter adjourned to meet at Quiltman next year.
The members of the Chapter at Macon did much to make the session a success. No one worked harder to this end than did our faithful brother and Sir Knight, L. H. Burdell. The slightest wish of the delegates had only to be hinted and this good brother was ready to be of service. The delegates were royally treated on Tuesday night after the literary exercises by being delightfully entertained, by the local members. The reception was grand and highly enjoyed.
