VOL. XXIV. Expedition Which Hoped to Find Sunken Treasure, Wrecked. FAMOUS YACHT WAS LOST The Mayflower, Defender of America's Cup, Was Abandoned in the Carribean Sea. Baltimore, Md.—Not laden with treasure from a long lost Spanish galleon, as they had fondly hoped, but themselves cast away and rescued in the nick of time from the wreck of the once gallant cup defender, the yacht Mayflower, a dozen men were landed by the Norwegian schooner Hippolyte Dumois, a later having passed through the terrors of the recent hurricane that swept up the coast. The rescued men were: G. H. Scull of Boston, R. A. Derby of New York, S. H. Noyes of Newport, R. I.; Hayden Richardson of New York; S. S. Boyston of Skeneatels. N. Y.; Captain C. Harding, Edward Perham, mate; Joseph Higgins, steward; J. Nellson, C. F. Oursen, A. Speacher, B. Blouston. This is the unromantic end of a adventure, tinged with romance, which had for its object the locating of a Spanish vessel lost many years ago in the Carribean seat, with much treasure aboard. Of the men rescued, the first five are Harvard, men and the leaders of the expedition. The others are members of the crew of the Mayflower, and it would seem the frony of fate that the vessel the party went in search of had already been located by others, and all her discovered gold removed. As soon as the rescued men were landed all left for New York except Mr. Boyleston, who has relatives in this city. While much mystery has been thrown around the Mayflower expedition, it is understood that the Spanish vessel for which search was to have been made went down about sixty miles from Jamaca. Recent advises are to the effect that a Jamaican expedition, headed by a son of Sir Arthur Blake, at one time governor of Jamaaca, recently found the location of a Spanish vessel, which, however, the divers discovered had been broken cup. They recovered a few gold pieces. The fame of the yacht Mayflower dates from 1856, when she defeated the British yacht Galatea, the then challenger for the American cup. She was afterwards transferred into a two-masted schooner and fitted with an engine. 13 KILLED BY-EXPLOSION. Elevator, Holding 500,000 Bushels of Grain, Lets Go. Richford, Vermont—With a concussion which shook the entire village, a large grain elevator, having a capacity of 500,000 bushels, exploded, causing the death of eleven workmen and two women. The explosion blew off the entire roof of the building, scattering timbers in all directions, and almost instantly flames burst out all over the structure. Twenty-one men were employed in the building, of whom eleven are missing and undoubtedly perished. All lived in Richford. The elevator was owned jointly by the Canadian Pacific and Boston and Maine railroads, and was occupied by the Quaker Oats Company of Chicago. The total loss is estimated at $400,000. DANCING GIRLS BARRED. Japan Will Also Keep Liquor from the American Tars. Tokio, Japan.—There is great rejoicing among the Christians in Japan because the authorities have decided to eliminate dancing girls and liquor from theceptions planned for the American sailors when the battleship fleet reaches Yokohama. The Young Men's Christian Association, the Seamen's Mission, the English-speaking churches and the mission school students are co-operating for the purpose of holding religious meetings and furnishing guides who will not lead the visiting sailors into temptation. SMUGGLERS ABRESTED. Five Men Are Charged With Having Smuggled Jewelry into U. S. New York City.—News has leaked out of the seizure by customs house officers in this city of more than $20,000 worth of costly cameos and coral jewelry, and this news led to the disclosure of a gigantic smuggling plot involving more than $20,000. Already five men have been captured in connection with these disclosures. Three of them, are now under ball for trial. These men, however, are evidently tools of the big, men acting behind the scenes. REVIVAL OF BUSINESS. President Harahan Orders $1,000,000 Worth of Freight Cars. New Orleans, La.—Announcement that $1,000,000 worth of freight cars have been ordered by the Illinois Central railroad for delivery after December 1 next was made here by President J. T. Harahan of that road. "This," said Mr. Harahan, "shows what we think of the prospects for a revival of business." Mr. Harahan added that lumber, coal and cotton shipments on his road are now greater than at the corersponding period last year, and that manufactured articles are the only class of shipments still considerably under normal.

A mighty Japanese fleet of twenty-nine ships is now assembling at Yokohama and has been designated by the mikado as the welcoming escort to the American fleet. The city council of Chicago passed an ordinance establishing a new holiday in Chicago—October 12—"Columbus day."

DeWolf Hopper, the comedian, sustained a bad fall while appearing on the stage of a Syracuse, N. Y., theater which rendered him unconscious and necessitated the dismissal of the audience. The accident was due to the slipping of a buckle of a belt about his waist, attached to a wire by which he was suspended in the air. An investigation of the reports that thousands of school children in Chicago are underfed has been ordered by the city council. The committee on schools was instructed to inquire into the situation and recommend measures of relief.

FUND NOT DISTRIBUTED When State of Tennessee and City of Nashville Appropriates $750,000. Election of Officers. New York City.-Surprise was occasioned when the trustees of the Peabody education fund met in this city and decided not to make a final distribution of the fund of $2,500,000 left by George Peabody of Massachusetts in 1867 for educating the children of the southern states. In establishing the fund the donor provided that the income of the $2,500,000 was to be used each year for educational purposes, and that at the end of thirty years the trustees could distribute the money among such educational institutions as they should select. At a previous meeting of the trustees, among whom is President Roosevelt, it was practically decided, to make the distribution. In 1875 the trustees, believing that the southern slates were providing proper common school education for children of that section, established the Peabody Normal College for teachers in Nashville, Tenn. In the distribution of the fund it was intended to give $1,000,000 outright to this college, and to apportion the balance of the fund among such other educational institutions as the trustees should name. The reason given for not making the distribution, it was stated, was that the Peabody Normal College for teachers has not compiled with the conditions stipulated by the trustees when the college was founded. The agreement was that to entitle the Peabody college to $1,000,000 when the distribution was made, appropriations aggregating $750,000 must first be made for the benefit of the college by the city of Nashville, Davidson county, and the state of Tennessee, Joseph H. Chate and Richard Olney of the board of trustees were appointed a committee to investigate whether this condition has been lived up to, and their report showed that the city of Nashville and Davidson county have made appropriations amounting to $300,000, but that the state has yet made no appropriations. The committee was given to understand, however, that the legislature of the state, which will meet next January, will probably make the appropriation. Therefore, the trustees decided not to distribute the fund until some time after next January. If the state of Tennessee makes the necessary appropriation, the trustees may call a meeting in February. Chief Justice Melville W. Fuller of the United States supreme court, president of the board of trustees, presided at the meeting. Other trustees present were: J. Plerpont Morgan of New York; Dr. Samuel A. Green, former mayor of Boston, Mass.; James D. Porter of Tennessee; Judge Henderson M. Somerville of Alabama and New York; Charles E. Fenner of Louisiana; Bishop William C. Doane of Albany, N. Y., and Bishop William Lawrence of Massachusetts. Justice Fuller was re-elected president of the board; Mr. Choate was chosen first vice president; Daniel C. Gilman of Maryland, second vice president; J. Fierpont Morgan, treasurer, and Dr. Green, secretary, Greenville Winthrop of New York was elected trustee to succeed the late Morris K. Jessup. No successor was appointed to fill the vacancy caused by the death of William A. Courtney of South Carolina. The other trustees are George Peabody Wetmore of Rhode Island, Richard Olney of Massachusetts, Daniel C. Gilman of Maryland, President Theodore Roosevelt and Governor Hoke Smith of Georgia. HOME VOYAGE OF THE FLEET. Returning itinerary of the Battleships is. Announced. Washington, D. C.—The itinerary of the return home from Manila of the battleship fleet has been announced at the navy department. The fleet will leave Manila on December 1, arrive at Colombo December 14, stay there six days and then depart for Suez, which it is scheduled to reach on January fifth. The ship will pass through the canal and coal at Port Said as expeditiously as possible. They are to spend the month of January and a few days early in February in the Mediterranean, two or three vessels going each to Ville Franche, Marselles, Genoa, Leghorn, Malta, Algiers, Athens, Naples, Negro bay and Gibraltar, the whole fleet leaving the latter place February 6, being scheduled to arrive in the United States February 29nd. ALL Records Broken.

Birmingham, Ala.—A gas explosion in mine B, at Blossburg, in Jefferson county, resulted in the deaths of three miners. The coal mine belongs to the Tennessee Coal Company. TUBERCULOSIS WILL END When Every Social Unit Begins to Fight Says Dr. Flick. Washington, D. C.—"If every unit of our society is willing to do that which they can do, I feel confident that the day is not far distant when we will have wiped the dread disease, tuberculosis, off the face of the earth." This was the message of hope given by Dr. Lawrence Flick of Philadelphia, one of the most eminent medical men of the country, at the New National Museum, where the tuberculosis exposition is being held in connection with the International Congress of Tuberculosis. The meeting was in the interest of labor, and was one of a series to be given. The speakers were Dr. Flick, John Mitchell, former president of the United Mine Workers of America; Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, and others. "Tuberculosis is peculiarly a disease of the wage-earner," said Dr. Flick. "and this is so for the very good reason that one of the strongest predisposing causes of the disease is overwork. It is an exceedingly fatal and prevalent disease among wage-earners." Dr. Flick pointed out that the reason why the wage-earner is so likely to contract tuberculosis is because in many instances he is overworked, he tolls in unsanitary workshops and oftentimes he is undered, which causes his powers of resistance to be less able to throw off an implantation of the tubercle bacilli. If the wage-earner gets the implantation, Dr. Flick said, it is almost certain to result fatally. He refuted the theory of infection from inheritance, saying that unless the tuberculosis micro-organism is admitted into our bodies it is not possible for one to become infected. The need of the establishment of hospitals and sanatoriums for the care of contagious and non-contagious consumptives was emphasized. John Mitchell, who presided, enumerated some of the obstacles to greater progress in the promotion of health and the eradication of disease, and said it was 'due to the attitude of many employers of labor whom, he declared, resisted the enactment of laws for the prevention of accidents and the promotion of health. Samuel Gompers paid a tribute to Dr. Robert Koch, the German scientist. He declared that Dr. Koch will live in the memory of man when those who fail to appreciate his discovery of the tubercle bacillus, or those who fail to follow his precepts, are forgotten. He declared that the union working man was less susceptible to tuberculosis infection than the non-union man, because the union shops are superior in sanitary appliances to other shops. The death rate from consumption among non-union men is 100 per cent greater than among union men, he said. Statistics were presented by Frederick L. Hoffman, showing that the number of deaths from consumption among the 32,000,000 wage earners in this country is 77,000. COUNTRY LIFE COMMISSION. Work for Improvement of Conditions in Rural Districts. Washington, D. C.—The work of the country life commission, appointed by the president last August, is fairly under way. The president intends to send a special message to congress on the necessity for improvement in the conditions of rural life and he has requested the commission to report its findings to him before the end of December in order that he may have time to study them before sending in his recommendations for legislation. As soon as President Roosevelt's letter creating the commission was made public, the farmers' began writing to him and to the commission, giving their views as to the features of farm life that needed remedying. The schedule the commission will send out is practically a request for a consensus of opinion as to the correctness of its findings. LUTHERANS NAME OFFICERS. United States Synod is in Session at Savannah, Georgia. Savannah, Ga.-The United States Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the South held its annual meeting here at the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Ascension. Rev. A. G.

Coldawter, Miss.—In a duel with knives at Wakefield, Miss., Manning Jamison, aged 30 years, was killed and beaten by mother, Edwin Jamison, aged 22 years, was dangerously wounded. Edwin Jamison and Will Kountz, according to information received here, were engaged in a wrestling bout and a fight was about to start, when Manning Jamison interfered, acting as peacemaker. This angered Edwin Jamison and he drew a knife. Manning whipped out his knife and the two fought until both dropped to the ground. Manning died in a few minutes. BROWN NEXT GOVERNOR His Majority Over Carter Close to 100,000 Votes. DISFRANCHISEMENT CARRIES Lindsey Wins for Pension Commissioner By Good Majority--The Voting Was Light. Atlanta, Ga.-Voting in the state election for a long ticket from governor down to coroner was exceeding light on Wednesday. Hon. Joseph M. Brown, candidate of the democratic party for governor, was elected over W. Yancey Carter, candidate of the independent party. Early returns gave Mr. Brown a majority in 145 of the 147 counties in the state. Mr. Carter-carried Chattogoa and Gordon by small majorities. Voting was light all over the state. The weather was perfect, and this fact, taken in connection with harvesting of the cotton crop, accounted, in C HON. JOSEPH M. BROWN. part, for the generally prevailing indifference. Possibly 60 per cent of the voters who cast their ballots in the regular primary, in which Mr. Brown was nominated, exercised their rights. The candidacy of Mr. Carter failed to make much impression upon the size of the vote, or to create much interest in the state at large. The primary result was viewed everywhere as settling the question of who would be Georgia's next governor, and little interest was shown in the balloting. The apathy was not confined to any one section of the state, but was general. In Atlanta the vote cast was slightly over one-half of that cast in the primary of June 4. Governor Smith cast an open ballot. He voted for Joseph M. Brown. When Mr. Brown appeared at the polls in Marletta he was heartily cheered. He voted the straight democratic ticket. The fellow citizens of Joseph M. Brown, the democratic nominee, in his home county of Cobb, turned out in large numbers to do him-honor. The percentage of the vote cast in Cobb county, in proportion to the vote in the primary, was probably the largest in any county throughout the state. Fulton county gave Mr. Brown a majority of 4,500 votes. ASKS FOR CHARTER. Railroad Company Will Build Line Between Register and Rocky Ford. Statesboro, Ga.—That Bulloch county will have another railroad within a few months now seems certain. The name of the proposed line is the Register and Rocky Ford. Application for charter has been filed and as soon as this is granted work will begin, it is claimed, by those behind the movement. It is proposed to build the road from Register, ten miles west of Statesboro, on the Oconee division of the Central, to Rocky Ford on the main line of the Central, a distance of twenty-five miles. Until the survey has been completed, it is not known if the line will pass through Statesboro, which is about five miles off the direct line between these two points. The petitioners are G. W. DeLonch, S. T. Ells, M. A. Smith, J. M. DeLqach, L. R. Godbee, P. M. Anderson, D. C. Newton and W. G. Warnell, of D. Tattnall county, and J. E. Donehoe, J. W. Williams and F. P. Register of Bulloch county. The survey on the proposed new railroad will begin at once. The contest for pension commissioner ended by the incumbent, Hon. John W. Lindsey, being re-elected by a safe majority. This office was made elective by a recent act of the legislature, and there were eight candidates. In the field as follows: W. J. Buchanan, A. W. Lindsey, T. J. Lumpkin, A. J. McBride, A. B. Stansell, W. W. Wilson, B. L. Hearn and W. A. Poe, Colonel A. J. McBride of Fulton and some of the others received a good vote in certain sections of the state; Colonel McBride carrying Chatham and Fulton, his home county. But in the large number of the counties Captain Lindsey received good majorities sufficient to insure his election. All the rest of the democratic state ticket was elected, none of the nominees, except the candidate for governor, having any opposition. The successful ticket for state officers follows: For governor, Joseph M. Brown. Secretary of state, Philip Cook, Lee county. Comptroller general, William A. Wright, Richmond county. Treasurer, Robert E. Park, Blbb county. Commissoner of agriculture, Thomas G. Hudson, Schley county. ```markdown ``` State school commissioner, Jere M. Pound, Baldwin county. Pension commissioner, John W. Lindsey. Prison commissioner, Wiley Williams, Muscogee county. Railroad commission, for unexpired term ending December 1, 1911, Fuller E. Callaway, Troup county. Railroad commission, for unexpired term ending December 1, 1913, George Hillyer, Fulton county. Railroad commissioner, for full term ending December 1, 1915, Warner Hill, Merlwether county. Associate supreme court justices, Beverly D. Evans of Washington county, and Horace M. Holdeh of Tallafero county, were elected for full terms of six years. Associate appellate court judge, Richard B. Russell of Jackson county, was elected for a full term of six years. Eleven superior court judges were elected without opposition. Twenty-one solicitors general were elected without opposition. Considerable interest was shown in the disfranchisement amendment, which was submitted for ratification or rejection at this election. The democratic party was committed to the amendment, and it carried by a safe majority. THROUGHOUT THE STATE In a letter to State School Commissioner- Jere M. Pound, H. E. Blerly, secretary, announces that the next annual convention of the Southern Educational association, will probably be held in Atlanta, December 29, 30 and 21, next. He asks that the names of county superintendents and heads of high schools be forwarded to him in Chattanooga. The association is the largest of its kind in the south. Dr. W. E. Mealing, secretary of the Savannah Valley Agricultural association, has received a letter from John W.

It has unques tionably been heavily overworked tt times past as applied to the “man un. ‘derneath," in accounting to the pub- ‘Me for wrecks which were really due ‘to lack of judgment and foresight on ithe part of the operating officials and ‘their superiors, the board of direc- ‘tors. There have been many instances dn the history of American railroad- ‘ing, however, where “asleep at his post,” or “forgot his orders,” was the true explanations for bad accidents, with elther enginemen, signalmen or train dispatchers as the offenders. From the latest accounts of the ter- rible wreck at Adobe, Col., last week, that disaster was clenrly caused by 2 lapse of this kind on the part of one of the Denver and Rio Grande-2gents. In the face of negligence of the sort that killed upward of forty peo- ple in Colorado, the railroads are al- ‘most helpless. There !s little that can be done to guard against such in- difference to duty as that shown by 2 ‘man, who will, no matter how great this fatigue, fall asleep knowing that ‘hundreds of lives are dependent upon ‘his vigilance. The railroads use the ‘utmost care in hiring men, and do everything to make sure that they ‘are performing their duty consclen- tiously. Once in a while, however, a ‘ool will get by the boards of examin- ‘ers by whom all railroad employes in ‘responsible positions are now hired. and, when he does, only tdo often it takes a wreck to show him up. A Flagman Who “Lost Mis Head.” Twenty ¥ears ago, one of the large railroads of the East was poor. There never has been a time when it hasn't sbeen poor, but at this particular pe- ‘riod the treasury had but recently ibeen looted for the third time in ten years. The salaries of some of the officers were in arrears, and wrecks ‘were unpopular, not so much from the-danger to human Iife as the cost of rebuilding the roadbed and repair- ing the equipment. On a certain di- vision of this railroad there was a young civil engincer who had becd ‘but a few years out of college. By midnight raids on the “equipment piles” of the nefghboring divistons he had succeeded in bullding up the sec- tion of the Ine over which he was “road master,” until it becamo the envy of the other division roadmas- ters, and attracted the notice of “the old man” himself. As Lowell said ot two of Emerson's associates: “They might strip every tree and "E would never catch ‘em, His Hesperides have no rude dra- gon to watch ‘em; ‘When they send him a dishful, and ask him to try “em; He never&suspects how the sly rogues came by 'em; He wonders why 't Is there are none such his trees on And thinks ‘em the best he has tasted this season.” Thanks to a sly old Irish foreman with a pretty knack at raiding, the young roadmaster was laying’a foun- dation for a record breaking future, when he had a wreck and a bad one. He was laying new track on a section of his division shut off from the rest of the line by a heavy curve. One of the section hands was sent back with torpedoes and a red flag to warn trains to “come on slow.” He was particularly warned to look out for an express which was due about half an hour after he went out. The track gang had just lifted an old rait preparatory to letting in a new one when this train rounded the curve at full speed and went into the ditch. Disregarding everything else, the young engineer, knowing that his reputation was at stake, ran back to the spot where he had posted the flagman, taking the foreman and a laborer with him as witnesses. They: found the mdn as pale as death sit-| ting by the side of the track, his flag, beside him. He was trombling like a leaf, and the only explanation he, could give for his failure to signal the engineer was that the onrushing train frightened hfm so that he was unable to move hand or foot, Im-, probable as this. seems, subsequent | investigation proved that. the same | man was discharged from another road for having failed to flag a tata that he had been sent out to stop. The swift approach: of a train appar- | ently affected him in much the same , way that standing on the edge of a fence, and in a calling where self- possession {s the first requisite, n0 amount of sympathy can bllod the officers of the road to the duty they ‘owe themselves and the public. There ‘was a case on a Western road several years ago that well fMlustrates this point. An engineer with a tong and excellent recotd for steadiness and loyalty to the company, plunged with his engine and two mail cars into an ‘open culvert that had been washed out by a series of heavy floods. The accident happened at night and the engineer was not in the remotest de- gree to blame for {t. He had a par- ticularly strong hold on the affections of his employers, owing to the fact that.he was one of the only men who refused to go out during tae great strike of '72, and made his regular run despite the danger to himself in- volved in refusing to obey the order of the union. After the accident he was put back on ls old trip with a new engine, and, so far as any one could see, was just the, same quiet, capable “runner” he had always | been. One night he was rounding a long curve ‘with high bluffs 'om one side of tae tracks and a steep precipice-on the other, he suddenly shut off steam, whistled for brakes, for it was be- fore the day of “air,” and yelled to his fireman to jump. When an en- gineer gives that warning, his com- panion in the cab does not usually stand on the order of his going, but jumps first and looks afterwards. That's what the fireman fn this casc did,.and when he came to, he found himself with a broken arm and cut head, at the foot of the hiliside down which he had rolled. He picked him- self up and scrambled as best he could to the track, looking for the rest of the wreck, Looming up in the monlight on the track ahead, he saw the dark shadow of the train with lanterns glinting about it. The conductor was holding an earnest conversation with the engineer as he reached the locomotive, which, to the astonishment of the fireman, was with the rest of the train entirely un- injured. “I swear by all that’s holy, Jim,” the engineer declared to the conduc- tor, “I saw the headlight of aother engine Goming toward us on_ our track.” The conductor was scofnful and the fireman mad, and neither of them, of course, belleved the story. ‘The conductor climbed aboard the cab, and the train was run back to pick up the brakeman who was out with a flag. As they rounded the curve on resuming the trip, the en- gineer suddenly shut off steam and again called his fireman to, look. There on the track in front of them was the Hght of a headlight so bright as to be almost blinding. The fire- man saw, however, what had not struck the engineer when ho first perceived it, that the ght was the Teflection of their own lamp. A pool of water had collected in‘a hollow in the bluffs, and was close enough to the track to make a powerful re- flector. The engineer in this case was not discharged, but at his own Tequest served out his time on a switch engine. _- The Man Who Takes Chances. In the two instances sited above, the men themselves might be said to be only indirectly responsible for the trouble they caused. There is anoth; er {dlosynerasy, however, which,’ while it is undoubtedly duo to a state of mind, precludes the possi- bility of any feeling of sympathy for the person who is subject to it, The man who “takes chances" {a justly the bane of railroad life, and is the Gne clement next to spring freshets, most dreaded by the operating off- vers. Here is an example of the kind ot thing such a man will do. A dl- vision engineer was one day makings} an Inspection of track from the cab of a passenger locomotive which he had ,boarded for the purpose.’ “The engine driver called him over to his seat to look at some pbject at the side of the road as the division en- gineer supposed. Instead, he point- ed to a large boulder, the size of an egg crate, that had rolled down the Biliside and lay directly between the rails in front of them. “There was plenty of time to stop, and the'divi- sion engineer expected the driver to shut off steam. Instead, he opened the throttla wide and yelled: J “See me bunt It off." The engino hit“the rock with | mighty thud, rolled a trifle, and then | settled down on the rails again, the boulder having gone over to ono side. | Tn Atvtutin atelneee ca cane cow rer,” Before’ he vy OF tne engine Grr; Wer.’ Before he “went, ‘however, he ‘sent a full report of the occurrenee to-headquarters, and the “manrwas in all probability discharged? “~ "According to the latest reports ot the Adobe disaster, the accident was ‘caused .by the negligence of a tele- graph operator and signalman who fell asleep and was therefore not aware that the fated tram had passed. hia station, This is‘one of the com- ‘monést and most’dificult dangers to deal with, confronting Fallroad off- cers. The strain of keeping awake during the hours-when a person ig normally in bed, in a little way sta- tion where only three or four trains pass in the course of the night, is greater than any person can realize who has not experienced it. - Every, sort of device has been re- sorted tS by the raflxoad companies to insure that the men“along the line are awake and doing their duty. Spe- clal calls aré sent over the wires to the different agents~at frequent in- tervals, they are obliged to: report to the train dispatcher every hour or two, and the conductors of passing trains are called upon to notify head~ quarters of any evidences of careless- ness on the part of the operators they may notice as they go up and down the road. In spite of these precautions, every little while opera- tors go to sleep, as the Adobe accl- dent shows, The following incident Mustrates the fact that men who have attained to high positions in railroad life were themselves some- times guilty of subterfuges as under- lings which they were later anxious to detect and punish in thelr subor- dinates. * : A man who ended his career as president of the Lake Shore Road be- gan life as a station agent, and is credited by his associates with in- venting what was perhaps the first automatic signal ever put into prac- tical operation. The station of which he as in charge lay far out on the prairies in Ilinois, and with the ex- ception of two expresses and a through freight, there was no night traffic. The express trains passed the station early in the evening, and after that there was a long stretch of lonely waiting until the freight went by about 3 o'clock in the morn- ing. The agent triéd improving his mind with study, and then took to modeling in clay. Neither of these schemes worked, so he was finally foréed to put aside the promise he had made his moth- er “never to gamble,” and joined the “round robin” poker game which is as old as the fnstitution of night telesraphy. Each man deals himself’ a poker hand, and then, as his turn comes round, calls his play. The stakes are always small, and are for- warded to the winner by the hand of a friendly conductor or brakeman. The poker game became tiresome af- ter a time, and the agent compro- mised still further with his consci- | ence. His sole duty atter the freight went by was to set the red light in the middle of the track, warning any following train that the freight had passed, and then give his code signal to the operator at the next station to warn him that the freight was on the way. The agent decided after think- ing the matter over that so long as the signal wes set, and the next agent notified, it made no difference by what means the end was attained. He therefore spent the whole next few evenings perfecting a device that would allow him to go.to sléep with- out danger of being detected. The signal was a crude one, but it an- swered its purpose in an age when railroading was haphazard at the best. In after years this man was wont to say that one of the first things he did after he became a divi- sion superintendent, was to install a telegraph outfit, in his bedroom so that he could cut in on the main line of his division during the night and liscover whether he was talking to 4 man or a machine—New York GHIN GS , mWORTH KNOWING ‘Taere are two persons married in New York City each eleven minutes im the day.

Good Roads ae In answer to inquiries, from, the * United States, Consul-Genoral Robert: P. Skinner, of Marsefiles,~furnishedy the followsaz information relative to: the effect of wayside trees on Frénch”. roads: , “It 1s proposed to plant .trees). along the roadsides ‘of New Yorkr State In order to keep the moisture in. the road and prevent ravelling.', and the question has been ralsed'> whether of not the roots of such,’ trees may spread out underneath the, road surface and eventually create, great damage in a severe climate ‘where there’are extremes of heat and cold. While French roads are not always bordered with shade trees, they are so very frequently, and my information 1s that the trees are planted not only for furnishing shade, but in order to protect the roads themselves against the effeets of .ex- cessive heat and drouth. It 15 be- Meved that the long, dry summer sea- son fs much more inlmfcal to roads than severe cold. The‘chiet officer in charge of tho public roads tn -Mar- sellles 1s of the opinion that, on the whole, New York roads would_be benefited if bordered with trees, sug- gesting, however, that only such shouid be planted as have yertically descending roots. 4 “F, Blzot, clvil engineer, and for mer conductor of the bureau of brédges and highways, edpresées him- self as follows on the subject: “‘In countries where the climate, is damp roadside trees are prejudicial to tho maintenance of the highways, as they prevent the circulation of the air and the drying of' the soll; in most of tho southern French regions such ° plantations are, on the other hand,. yery usefal in dry weether, as they maintain the roadbed In a state of freshness favorable to ‘its conserva- tion. In general, trees should, be selected wh ‘high spreading branches, such as the poplar, the elm, the ash, and they should be planted generally upon the outer, edge of the réadbox and at distances of ten metres (32,80 feet). Each tree should be placed in a hole one metre (3.28 feet) deep and one and one- halt metres (4.92 feet) square, and should be trimmed to a helght of. two and one-half metres (8.20 fect) ~ above the surface. al “The earth about newly planted trees shouki be loosened’ in March and November—in March only after top thin year—and thereafter until ter permanent growth appears as- sured; small trenches should be di- rected toward the foot of the tree, in order to secure the benefit of rains, Binally, the tree {iselfebould bo trimmed annually during the first ten years.’ "Consular Report. 5 Problem World-Wide, Meeting new conditions suecess- fully is essential to the progress of civilization. One hundred and twen- ty-fve years ago ‘Tresauget, of | Prenee, and Macadam, of Sgtland, met the difisulty which arose from ‘impassable roads by developing the ‘modern macadamized highway. They argued that fron tires crushing down cbeavily the rock spread over the roads would ultimately result in ‘glv- ing a smooth, hard surface that would shed the water and remain the same. in winter and summer. Their reas- oning was correct, and the wonderful roads of France and Scotland were the result. To-day, however, as civilization is, progressing, instead of the iron-tired wheels improving the roads, the rub- ber-tired automobiles destroy care- fully macadamized roads. The roads in France in the last fow years have deterlorated fully forty per cent. un- der the disintegration caused by the suction from the rubbet tlres of the automobile. As the Times-Dispatch has already stated, a congress of road builders is now being held in Paris, at which the United States is repre- sented, to discuss a way of mecting tlis diftculty. This congress shows how much interest the whole world is, taking in good roads, which, Ike the automobile, have come to’ stay wherever they have come at all. .

Church is an enthusiastic advo- cate and patron of colored en- terpriss, Some of his followers would profit by imitating him. In fact the ministers and, mem- bers of this great church ‘would stultify themselves to do other than patronize enterprises“ of the race. Any colored Man whe claims that he is a demo. erat or will vote for Bryan is an endorser of the lynch law, disfranchisemeut, jim crow laws and other restrictions against the race. And lastly they will have to approve the burning of our churches and school houses in Southwest Georgia. Can any sang colored man vote for a party that tolerates such won- tonness against an humble class of citizens? Tue Tribune has always as- serted that upon a ;whole the white citizens of Savannal are the most liberal and friendly toward our people. . This has been demonstrated in more ‘ways than one, and it was demonstrated again on.\Wedues day when they showed their disapproval of the disfranchise- ment act by giving such a large vote agalnst it. The colored citizens are also prond of the gentlemen w.ho managed the election tor their display of fair- ness. All of these things go to farther cement the good feeling that existf here between the races. We appreciate our white friends for what they did, and will never forget it, One -of Our Privileges Abridced. Last Tuesday, the measure that all loyal colored men of this state were against, the disfranchisement law, was ratified by a small major- ity. For nearly a year an active campaign was waged against it. This measure was backed by the Hoke Smith regime and mainly by this-influence prevailed. We are gratified to note, however that the majority for it was comparatiyely small and which shows that there are many white men in the state who are in favor of fair play for the,Negro, i One thing is certain and that is, the very men who advocated the measure willliye long enough to regret it. In this new act the hum- ble class of whites will suffer more than the colored man, especially wheve there is a registering board having a political end to meet. Some of these same men will yet need the votes that they help to disfranchise, but will hope in yain, Because of the passage of this measure, the colored citizens have no ¢ause to become discouraged. -It sill not in the least prevent him from continuing to be the good and Jaw abiding citizen that he has al- wayS been. It should not deter him from sccuring a home, accum- ulafing’ property, ‘saving his earn- ings, educating his children ana doing those things that lehoves a good -eitieen, This disfranchise- ment act shéuld be as an incentive I cause him to redouble his efforts for self betterment. . Wz were honored during the week witha ‘visit from Bishop C.S8. Smith of the A. M. EB Church, who is undoubtedly one of the leading and most practical thinkers of his church, The testimonials tendered him by our citizens wil! prove that they are in hearty accord with him and his views on public questions. Bishop Smith has always beenaleader in all his walks in life. He has possibly done more practicat good for his church than any other bishop, if it- is nothing else than the establishment of the Sunday School Union. His views Africa on meets our ap- proval and we can heartily de- clare “amen.” Bishop Smith is a hard worker and we can pre- dict that during his{quadrennial this Episcopal district will out- strip itself, Bishop Smith will always find a welcome in Savan- nah, not only from the members of his church, but the citizens at large. Political Notes. Colored men: Vote for Jaft and Sherman, Jaw and order; against Bryan, Tillman, Varda. man and Heflin. Think of having Vardaman_ as Secretary of the ‘Preasuy! | ‘Tha may happen if Bryan is elected. “We stuffed bollot boxes, | we shot them; we are not ashamed of it."—Piteh fork: Tillman, in a speech in the United States Senate. | ‘fhe southern Democrats’ say ‘that they would like to get rid of the Afro-American laborers, yet nearly all Of the state have statutes making it a penal offense to entice laborers from the plantations, and the white planters would make it very warm for any person who itched to.seperate them from their fidld. hands. ° | If any one has any idea that the great mass of the American peo- ‘ple have any intention of allowing Mr. Bryai, at the head of a cohort of Democratic brigadeirs, to seize ‘the reins of this Government, Such a person knows little of the amount of good sense which is peculiar to the people of the United States. | Judge Taft has just completed a tour of Wisconsin, Iowa and Min- nesota, which may truly be des- cribed as a continuous ovation. One of the characteristics of the Republican candidate is the re markable effect produced by his coming into personal contact with the people.

He was superyisor over one of the most progressive prayer houses which the church have boasted off with pride for many years, also was district chairman of the Mt. Olive Baptist Sunday School Asséciation. During the Christmas holl- days he always manifested a deal of in- terest in preparing 4 spread for the poor saints and would always be foremost Io seeing that, the poor aged fathers and mothers of the church be given groceries, provisions and funds thereby cheering their hearts. Truly be was to them as the good St. Nicholas is to the little ones that hang their stocklogs beside- the fire- side.

When silos first came into use in this country they ‘were Invariably built rectangular or square and shal- low. Then it was necessary to weight the silage down to keep it from spoil- ing. Later it wes learned that great- er depth would remove the necessity ot weighting, but still the silage in the corners would spoil becafise it could not be packed tight enough to exclude the air, The next improve- ment was that of boarding across the corners, making an octagonal in- terior. This was better, but not yet successful, and the idea of the round allo was gained, thus eliminating all corners or air space for silage to spoll, and the losses incurred by the air coming in contact with the con- tents of the silo were reduced to a minimum. ‘Less lumber fs required to build a circalar silo of like capacity ‘than a square one, and the material need not be so strons, to preveat bulging and spreading apart, so that the cir- cular silo is'not only the more ef- ficient type, but should be a great deal cheaper. For these reasons the circular silo kas become more popu- lar, until at the present time we sel- dom see any otlier form being con- structed.—Hugh G. Van Pelt, in ‘Kimball's Dairy Farmer. . ew . poe Cooling the Milk. “ Axf.experienced dairyman who has ‘thandied a great deal of milk says his -experience fs that the bacteria rapidly increase when warm weather over- takes it, and that from May 1 to cold weather {t becomes necessary to arti- ficially lower the temperature in milk ‘and taerevy prevent the dreaded mul- 4iplying of a small number of bacteria into hundreds of thousands or mil- ‘lions. The remedy consists in pro- ‘viding for cooling or refrigeration de- vices on the farm and at the railroad ‘stations and for refrigeration cars of the milk trains, * Farmers who bring their milk into the city by wagon should be required to carry at least crude boxes into «which the milk cans or bottles are placed and packed with crushed ice. rere for milk hauled to the railroad station, the distanices are rarely great enough to warm the milk seriously in transit, provided it has beoh well .chilléd at the farm. Milk Inspectors may Be relled upon to call attention to, any serious eyading of the spirit ef the law. Milk known as certified must, of course, be rightly kept down to, standard temperature in all kinds of weather, and no latitude fs per- missible.—Indiana Farmer. , _ . + Making Good Batter. ~* ‘The waShing of butter, says Pro- fessor McKay, of the dairy depart- ‘ment of the Iqwa Agricultural Col- clege, is*a' mofé important factor in butter making than {s generally sup- posed, and adds:t ‘The keeping qualities as well as the flavor cay be seriously affected ‘by undesirable ‘bacteria being trans- mitted through the wash water. I believe the time is not far distant when all wash water will be pasteur- Szed or sterilized. Take the question ‘of color or motties—thousands of dol- Jars are lost annually by butter be- sing mottled. ‘This defect is caused by ‘an uneven distribution of salt, Take three “lots of butter from the same “Churning, even where no artificial cojoring has been added, salt one lot + at the rate of a half ounce per pound, the seoond Tot at an ounce and the ‘third. lot at one and one-half ouncos, and the color wlil be so strikingly ‘high, ip the last lot that it could not be mixed with the other lots without showing streaks.

If these precautions afe ob- served there will be no danger of mottles. ~ \ Proper Care of the Forse. It Isa fact that a good many work horses are actually hurt for want of exercise and proper care and feeding when they are Idle. The Dally Drovers’ Journal, calling attention ta these things, says that snch horses when not used daily should have plenty of exercise in the pasture or ‘some other place when the weather will permit, and as to care, that if the attendant spends all bis time in rubbing the body or smoothing the mane or tail of the animal and neg- lects his feet and legs, it is a mis- take. If one watches a good horse judge at work in the show ring he ‘will be impressed with the fact that more time is spent in the inspection of the animal's feet and legs than any .other part of its conformation. If the horse has good legs he is gen- erally a high-class animal fn all his proportions. A horse is not properly grcomed unless his feet and legs have had special attention. The proper management of the horse to maintain soundness and ef- ficiency is to feed him a variety of rations. Animals do better when their feed is varied occasionally. Many horses are fed for léng intervals on ears of corn. and the process of shelling and grinding their rations often makes their teeth sore and they lose condition. If the feed were varied with alternate rations of corn- meal the condition of the animal would improve immensely. The horse will gain rapidly in weight and ap- pearance waen his grain ration is al- ternated with a feed of cornmeal. Owners of horses should personally look after their stables and see that the animals have the necessary vari- ety of rations to maintain good ap- pearance and efficiency as workers.— indiana Fagmer. pale me Caicves For Good Cows. Tt has long been a problem how to increase the quality of the dairy herd by selecting and growing the most promising calves. It fs the surest way to secure and keep up @ first class dairy herd. Good breeding, care in selection, raising and feeding. is the road to a solution of this wiole matter. A dalryman in the Minne- sota Farm Review offers some good suggestions on some of these points In the following: " A problem which troubles many farmers and dairymen is that of rais- ing thelr calves successfully. - There is more than one way. They may be raised on whole milk, on the cow, on skim milk, and with no milk at all. ‘The most practical and the caeapest way is to raise them on skim milk. Of course, skim milk must be supple- mented by other feeds to replace in a meesure the fat removed by skim- ming. Good teods are oil meal, oats, torn. braa, giuten or wheat. A more |desirable' feed is 2 mixture of all or somé of these to form meel with a nutritive ratio of 1:5. A Iberal"sup- ply of good hay should be kept be- fore the calves. This {s the first thing’ they learn to eat. Perhaps the best is early cut or second crop clover hay. Alfalfa, bromus and upland prairie hay are good. All hay should be fine. Some bore meal should be supplied to furnish mineral matter. Bone meal fs indispensable to cattle Jin the barn all winter.’ The calves should also have salt at all times. {Salting at intervals sometimes causes overdrinking and,consequent scours. | Calves over a week old should have Jall the pure water they want after they biave had thelr milk{ | When the change is complete the ‘Healt may get twelve pounds of skim | milk and two pounds of grain, also Jal the hay it will eat. Increase the -| milk about two pounds a week until -| the calf gets about eighteen to twenty ‘|pounds. Do not feed more.than this. >] It will make a scrawny pot-belly with -|no lung capacity. When a calf gets || large enough to use more than twenty | pounds of milk it will be too large ,{to make the most profit out of it. >] At siz nionths the calf may get less ,| milk, say. two pounds a week, unt ‘lit gets none. Give pienty of good ‘| nay and grain. and a little silege may t\be fed. Do not get it fat and thus t|give a tendency to lay on flesh. Be -|sure to give the calf plonty of those r| two gréaz necessities of life—salt and -| water. 5 r| Early learned habits ‘are remem s|bered, and if you spoll your heifer "| you will have a spofled cow. ‘Neve: n| abuse calves, but make pets of them: oltet them have confidence in you -|Train the Uttle calves properly anc dlyou will have a herd that will be « ¢ | Sourte of satisfaction and revenue t ¥| you. .

At least, the ancient Dutch windmill, ‘with its four great sweeps, carries one back as far as it {s necessary to go. Windmills were used In Franco and Italy in the twelfth century for grinding corn and fn Holland in the fifteenth century for pumping water over the dykes into the sca, In the United States the windmill has had several seasons o> spells of prosperity, when it looked as though everybody was getting a windnmil, and Ilkewise several periods of de- pression when it seemed as though everybody was down on and discard- ing the windmill. Americans are apt to go to extremes, When,a thing becomes popular, {t becomes awfully popular. It 1s in danger of being looked upon as an actual révolu- tlonizer. As) a matter of fuct, the windmill’ has, a great deal of worth in many locations and Its use ts con- stantly Increasing. If the old Dutch mill was, and for that matter {s to- day, effective, certainly the hich tyze ER ee RT eee i he SSeS Nae Beles Wh Oe Bee epee LASS Ste, able A Ro PT EN & ° Eee Homemade Windmill. of American article 1s a power gen- erator on the farm of great value, if the conditions are right for fts use. It {s foolish, yet it has been dore in countless cases,’to order an expensive windmill plant for pumping, before finding out that the water supply ts 8 good one. ° ‘The differenco between supplying a house and farm stock with water, nowadays, to say nothing of watering the grounds on the garden, and that of carrying water from the “big spring” In buckets, as in the old days, fs as great as ts the difference be- tween the civilization of to-day and that of/one hundred years ago. The “big sprlus” undoubtedly did have a country!wide reputation for never go- ing dry—tn fact, in several years o! ‘great drought, when all the other wells and springs dried up; all ‘the neighbors got their water from the blue depths of the fine old “big spring.” Nevertheless, the “blz spring”, would Ilkoly last about sixt) minuteS if its waters were pumpet to supply a good-sized tank. So tha’ the first thing in considering a wind mill for pumping fs, have you a goo water supply to pump? A Sne wate supply should certainly be recognize as a most valuable asset, and th question then arises as to its fulles utilization. In many cases nothinj more economical than a windmill cat be found for getting the water to th Surface and forcing it into a tank high above the surroundings. Ot course, there are power windmills for grinding, ete., as well as those rigged for pumping, and an immense amount of bard work can he accomplished by these former. " It fs an fusplring sight to travel through portions of Kansas and Ne- braska, and see the thousands of windmills, all spinning merrily In the crisp western wind. Many a farmer in the western -part of these States, through his few acres irrigated by wind pumped water, has bridged over periods of drought on his new farm and ‘been able to stick it out until he could get more thoroughly estab- Ushed. Some of the mills improvised by the early settlers are crude enough but picturesque, nevertheless service- able under the strong prairie winds. They may have been constructed en- tirely of dry goods Loxes, resembling the paddle wheels of old stern wheeler river steamers. Others look ike big pin wheels, and some have salls of old Kerosene cans hammered out flat, In the Arkansas Valley in Kansas, one private pumping plant erected avout five years agg at a cost of $8000, sup- plied water from the overtiow of the Arkansps River for one thousand acres, and pald for itself the first year. The writer has a small, eight-foot windmill on his Virginia plece, and this, under a good head of wind, fills a nine hundred gallon tank In the attic of the house in from two to three hours. Continuous pumping does not lower the water in the well, and with the average run of wind ‘this tank could be pumped full daily. With a clay or other retaining reservoir of suflclent -size to take all the water from the windmijl, enough storage could be provided by this small plant for the irrigation of from three to four acres.-Guy Elllott Mitchell, {2 the American Cultivator. “Mr” and “3s, | ‘The complaint that postmen are not allowed officially to be written | to or of as “Mr."" recalls the attempts. that have’ been made to show that few of us are really entitled to that prefix. “Master,” it 1s contended, was, originally a form of address re- stricted to people of a certain stand- ing, and has been cheapened even as “Esquire.” But the case is not as “Esquire.” It Js only clear that “Master” was once markedly respect- ful, and in the form of “Mister” has become common property, while “DMaster” {tself, curiously, has be- come confined to boys.

Y.—At the Bushwick Avenue Reformed Church, the Rev. Edward Niles, pastor, preached to a large audience on the subject: "Rejoicing in Suffering." The text was from Colossians 1:24; "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking in the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for His body's sake, which is the church." Mr. Niles said: When Paul was converted, Christianity was a Jewish sect unknown outside of Palestine. When Paul had finished his missionary tours, he could say with pardonable exaggeration, "The gospel is preached in all creation under heaven, whereof I, Paul, was made a minister." And how he loved to preach! How he yearned to bring every one into knowledge of the truth! Then, while in his prime, he became a prisoner, fettered to a soldier, any hour liable to execution. He would be well nigh excusable had he complained. I never read this verse without astonishment: "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake." He is not submissive. No passivity nor the flight of years, retraining his life, he comes to realize that the things for the present grievous nevertheless worked out the peaceable fruits of righteousness. Now, while suffering, he rejoices. No back sight, but present feeling. Why does he rejoice? Not because he is glad to have a rest from work. Not because he is a poser and fishes for sympathy. It is for the sake of the church. There, in his cell, he can perform what makes the church happier, more useful, healthier. Each soldier who mounts guard over him is a soul for him to save, until the whole palace garrison talks about Christ. His presence in the capital city gives boldness to the brethren. He has leisure for writing letters to Ephesus, Colossae, Philippi which will do good for centuries after his preached sermons are forgotten. So, whether as a minister or a sufferer, he fills up what was lacking in the afflictions of Christ, is a supplement to the otherwise incomplete gospel. Our text means just that, although many timid Protestant commentators endeavor to explain it away. Without Paul, Christ's sufferings would have been lacking. His coming to earth a partial failure. Atonement means at-one-ment between man and God. 'Our Saviour's ministry and death brought it about from God's side, not from man's. The debt sinning humanity owed was paid by Him, but the debtor didn't know it. Jesus lived, preached and suffered in a little corner of the world. He never went outside of that one Roman district on the east shore of the Mediterranean. Caesar never so much as heard of him. Purposely he made His work intensive, training him, a new way to kill off fully comprehend Him until fifty days after His death, that they and those they inspired might fill up what was lacking in His sufferings for the world. Jesus did not to save the world, but He could not save the world alone. A thousand people were probably converted by Paul's preaching to one by Christ's. His soul was full of happiness, no matter what the condition of his body, as he realized how essential he was to the Son of God. It was for him to do what Jesus had not done. If he could not do it in one way, he would do it in another. Nothing was hard with such a stimulus. Paul far from filled up to the brim what was lacking, with all his trumphs. He made a beginning and every real Christian since has been adding to Paul's contribution. Just so much self-denying effort must be actively put forth, just so much pain must be passively borne for others before every phase of the redemption plan is filled out and the great day of atonement is ushered in, when every knee shall bow and every tongue confess Jesus as the Christ to the glory of God the Father. In proportion then, as you do your part will this kingdom of God be established upon earth. Yours is the responsibility for its delay! Christianity is not a means for you to escape suffering hereafter, a plan for you to attain future bliss. It is a method for you to hasten on the actualization of the angel's song on Bethlehem's plains. Like the greatest of Christians, you are called to the ministry. A collegiate education is not required, a theological course unnecessary, ordination, a pastorate may be or may not be conferred upon you. You have a calling, whatever your means of livelihood, and that calling is to fill up what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ. Fill up the purse of this church so far as in you lies. Fill up the pews of this church by your presence and persuasion. Fill up the prayers of saints, those vials of golden incense which should ever be kept burning before God. Fill up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the children by participation in the Sunday-school or some branch of young people's work. With you, the work here reaches nearer the perfect. Lacking you, it lags. Even Christ is insufficient, minus the weakest Christian. The Captain of our salvation must have soldiers of salvation or His orders are useless. The private, behind the gun is as imperative as the officer beside the gun. Like Paul, you are called to suffering when it comes to you, Christian, or if it has already come, don't bear it, I besech you. Rejoice in it. Travail is a part of the new heavens and new earth birth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. So much grooming and travelling in pain must be before the great day of the restoration of all things. Whatever you carry means less pain for others. You are thus a vicarious sufferer. That made Jesus perfect. It will you. Hollowest of all joys is the mother's heartache when her child is sick, is that which the father feels when his boy is about to contest for some great prize in life, which the pastor knows as he years after a wandering sheep. By bearing our mutual woes and burdens the body of Christ is cleansed of spots, loses its wrinkles, prepares for the presentation ceremony. Each member, of that body should supplement its head. 1. As an example, Jesus walks no longer upon earth. Multitudes never read from His biography. All they know about Christ is what they see in you. You are His substitute as a pattern. Your holiness incarnate must so attract them that they will want themselves to read of and know Him who is the pattern you are copying. The responsibility would be crushing, were not the privilege so exalting. 2. You supplement His love. Jesus was the perfect lover, because He showed no favoritism. He went among publicans, sinners, lepers and beggars without slighting the rich and prominent. He despaired of neither the drone nor the drudge. He really meant it when He said, "Every one is My brother and sister, My father and mother." He isn't here now to tell them He will bear their griefs and carry their sorrows. You are. 3. You supplement His salvation. You are the ambassador of good news, the missing link between the sinner and the Saviour. The divine message must be interpreted by the human voice. You have that voice. It needs no training in elocation to repeat to a dying soul Christ's promises. If we identify ourselves with Christ's sympathy for others by our living and dying for them. His expectations of us will never seem despotic demands, but ever the longing of one part of the body to help another in its pain. Built upon the foundations of the prophets and apostles, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, you and I are living stones. Just so many other living stones as we can bring hastens so much filling up the required quota of repeated acts to self-denial by successive generations and individuals. Your work may not "bring forth the top stone with shoutings of grace, grace unto it." It will certainly supplement what the cornerstone began. You can do much by active effort, by rejoicing suffering, or by both, to hasten on the final glory of the temple of God. Longing For Peace. You say that for many years you have been praying, and longing for peace and abiding rest of soul, and that it has sometimes come for a while, and then has gone, leaving you darker than before; and yet you do not know anything in your life to keep you from God. You are (all unconsciously) resting in feelings, not in faith. Remember that the true order of the Christian life is—first, God's facts about Christ as our personal Saviour; second, our faith in Christ; and then, and only then, thirdly, our feelings or experience as the result of our faith in God. Now, if we reverse this order we get into spiritual difficulty and depression. It is sometimes said that for one look at self we should take ten looks at Christ. I would rather say that we should not look at self at all, but be ever occupied with Christ. Rest absolutely in God's Word, and keep in that attitude of trust, whether you have any delightful feelings or not. If, as you say, there is nothing of sin between you and God, just rest absolutely upon His Word; and as you cling by simple faith to His sure promises, abiding peace will surely come. "Joy and peace in believing."—Rev. W. H. G. Thomas, in London Christian. Influence. Influence is to be measured, not by the extent of surface it covers, but by its kind. A man may spread his mind, his feelings, his opinions, through a great extent; but if his mind be a low one, he manifests no greatness. A wretched artist may fill a city with daub, and by a false, showy style achieve a reputation; but the man of genius, who leaves behind him one great picture, in which immortal beauty is embodied, and which is silently to spread a true taste in art, exerts an incomparably higher influence. Now the noblest influence on earth is that exerted on character, and he who puts forth this does a great work. The father and mother of an unnoticed family who in their seclusion awaken the mind of one child to the idea and love of perfect goodness, who awaken in him a strength of will to repel all temptation, and who send him out prepared to profit by the conflicts of life, surpass in influence a Napoleon breaking the world to his sway.—Channing. What Led Him to Jesus. Dr. R. A. Torrey tells a beautiful story of a man in Chicago who had a sweet little daughter. He loved her dearly, but God took that little child away from him. The house was so lonely, and he was so angry against God that he went up and down his room far into the night cursing God for having robbed him of his child. At last, thoroughly worn out, and in great bitterness of spirit, he threw himself* on his bed. He dreamed he stood beside a river. Across the river in the distance he heard the singing of such voices as he had never listened to before. Then he saw in the distance beautiful little girls coming toward him, nearer and nearer,-quilt at last at the head of the company he saw his own little girl. She stood on the brink of the river and called across, "Come over here, fathen." That overcame his bitterness; he accepted Jesus and prepared to go over yonder where his sweet child had gone. Hezekiah "showed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures; there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah showed them not." Let the spirit of display once get into you, even as a church, and you may write Ichabob upon the temple door. The things to be shown in the church are the Bible, the altar, the cross—"God forbid, that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." If men come to our churches and see the precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the ointment, and see no cross, they will curse us in the day of account—Joseph Parker. A Scotchman, wishing to know his fate at once, telegraphed a proposal of marriage to the lady of his choice. After spending the entire day at the telegraph office he was finally rewarded late in the evening by an affirmative answer. "If I were you," suggested the operator when he delivered the message. "I'd think twice before I'd marry a girl that kept me waiting all day for my answer." "Na, na," retorted the Scot. "The lass who waits for the night rates is the lass for me."—Illustrated Bits.

Cardui-is a purely vegetable extract, of certain medicinal ingredients, with a specific, curative influence, on the womanly organs. It is a simple, harmless, non-intoxicating remedy, acting gently and naturally, and is recommended to girls and women, of all ages. To them we say: Take Wine of Cardui for womanly pains, dragging feelings, nervousness, and any other form of sickness peculiar to females. Mrs. A. C. Beaver, of Marbleton, Tenn., writes: "I suffered dreadfully, but took Cardui and recommend it to all ladies with female troubles." My friend, whom I have always considered a true gentleman, may geem a boon to you because he wears, "store clothes." "Somebody else's" so-called "gentleman friend" impresses me as a silly ass, and because his chief interest is in ties and fancy waistcoats. Table manners constitute the final test in some social circles, the wearing of suspenders without a coat in others. It is probably no exaggeration to estimate the number of different descriptions of a gentleman given since Mrs. Grundy began to take a hand in human society as in excess of half a million. The only way in which these have uniformly agreed is in the assumption that the gentleman is a desirable; variety of man, and this geems to be as near as it is possible to get to a universally acceptable definition.—New York Globe.

Are you doing your full duty to- ward Masonry and your own lodge? Do.you fully realize what your lodge Should mean to -you, and what you sbould mean to your lodge? A Masonic lodge should be the one place where a man could gorand meet his fellowmen on grounds of true brotherly love, congealality and, socal equality? Is your lodge such a place? If not, why? Do you see to if; per- sonally, that no man is admitted unless he measures up to the highest possible standard, morally and in- tellectually? Or do you leave this to others, ey 8 Masonic lodges should be something more than places to confer degrees. They should be more than money- making institutions, They should be places where social life, social pleas- antries and other pleasant and uplift- ing affairs should receive considera- tion, They can ‘be made “all this if each member will make a steady, per- sistent effort. .“In doing each day that goes by. Not in dreaming a great thing to do” after a while— Masonic Home Jour- nal. WNéxt to the Tyler the Master should be ‘punctial in attending the meetings of the lodgé, He should be in the ante-room and greet the brethren as they come in; especially should he be attentive to candidates and to visiting brethren.

Don’t be gazing at the mountain and river in the distance and saying— “How shall I ever get over them?” When you come to the mountain and the river you will come to the Hght and\;strength that belong, to them— M. A. Kelty.. \ - — _ One of the most valuable lessons of life, impressively taught by our Order is, that we should be: humble and modest toward the Grand Archi- tect of the Universe, and not impugn His wisdom, nor attempt to set up our imperfect sense of right against His providence and dispensations, that the march of events is rightly ordered ‘hy an infinite wisdom, and leads, though we do not see it for want of comprehension, to a grand and perfect result, and that there is a real God who rules the world in in- finite wisdom, infinite love and infi- nite mercy—The Globe. When the Athenians became citi- zens Solon preseribed for them the following oath: “I will transmit my fatherland not only not less, but greater and better than it was trans- mitted to me.”. So let us all today register a silent vow that, we will transmit Masonry not only ont less, but greater and better~than it was transmitted to us.—Grand Master Plummer, New Hampshire. WORTHY MEMBERS. How great a value do you place on Masonry? If the duties it imposes, the benefits it confers, are not worthy your consideration and discharge, then the institution 1s not worthy that you should spend your time and money as a member thereof. If, on the other hand, they dre possessed of the merit that has been credited té them for ages; if they are binding on you, who has voluntarily assumed them anil you are not always ready to discharge them, then you aré not worthy to be a member of the fraternity.—Square and Compass. Two Signs, Two pathetic signs appeared re cently in the door of a little Italian shoeshop on the west side. The first ‘was on paper, pasted on the glass ‘and printed in uncertain capitals by an illiterate hand. In read: “Closed on account of death in the family.” ‘Three days the: shop was closed and the sign remained. ~Then the door was opened and the shée man was hard at -work again, his rough black head bending lower than ever over hig. accustomed task, On the door still was the other sign—a human sign, infinitely more touching in its revealing pathos than the ‘first. It consisted of three Iittle girls, the eldest about four years old, all dress- ed in black, their little pigtafls clumsily tied with black ribbons. They sat in the unaccustomed place, Jooking first at their father and then into the street, and It was hard to get past them without a Iump in ¢he throat—Ohicago Inter-Ocean, Mony a man refuses to listen to reason because he can see np‘reason far it ou ga a ee OF POLITICAL INTEREST. see PIES OCS ChE eS Hitchcock, of the republican national headquarters at the Metropolitan ‘Tower in New York city was looted, ‘and many papers carried away.

In reply Mr. Watson telegraphed that if any one ever Offered Senator Pettigrew $10,- 000 for ten speeches on any earthly subjegt that person was more liberal- ly supplied with money than sense. Judge Taft's: game of golf*tand what he personally thinks of it as a fat man’s exercise was stated at Wolsey, S. D., by the candidate, who said he had received an intimation that he ought to come to South Dakota and convince the people that he was not an aristocrat, or was above the peo- ple. He said that his friends were certain that if he would go to South Dakota_and show the peopie of that state What kind of a man he was in appearance that they would get over the fmpression that there was any- thing about him that’ resembled 3 dude. Mr. Taft, when asked the question, said he belleved tariff revision should generally be downward, but upward as to pottery. In his Dakota speech- es he dealt with the various issues except guaranty of bank deposits, Wiliam J. Bryan has offered the mascot «mule bresented him by the Agricultural Society of Minnesota as 2 prize to the county showing the largest percentage of increasé in the vote for the democratic electors over the average vote for electors in the last three campaigns. Chairman Hitchcock of the republi- can committee refused to ‘iter ‘fig- ures on Taft pluralities in western states, but said they were very con- servative. He declared every eastern state would go for. Taft. Chairman Mack of the democratic committen claims practically the same thing, while Mr. Hearst of the independence party claims New York and“ Georgia for his candidates and Thomas Wat- son, populist candidate for president, also~claims Georgia, Observing at Mitchell, South Dako- ta, that the windows and stores and houses. were placarded. with litho: graphs of himself, Mr, Bryan, in the course of his remarks there, urged the. people to remove them and hang up in their stead pictures of Mr. Taft, who was to spealr in that town the nest day, and thus “show him tho) same courtesy that you have shown | me.” He sald he took it for granted that the.compllment-paid him was not 2 personal one, but that it was ‘due to the fact ‘that he was speandidae for the highést. office, in the gift of the people. “Mr, Tatheis a candidate fox the Same “office, the dalq-.‘aad > of us avill berelected, Ads no; One pct tell yet; with certainty. which will be elected, you had better tack yp both alike if you would be on the safe side.” John W. Kern, democratic candl- date for vice president, and James S, Sherman, republican candidate for yice president, met in Chicago. Mr. Kern was standing in the lobby of the jauditorium annex when a bystander rushed up and asked, to shake hands with “the next vice president,” “Cer- tainly, with pleasure,” said Mr. Bern, “But, to make sure, you would better shake hands With that man over there—that one with the side whiskers. That’s Mr, Sherman.” The stranger did as suggested, and then Mr, Sherman and Mr. Kern bdégan moving toward each other, and pres- ently the long, sinewy hand of the second man on the democratic ticket was grasped in the plump one of his republican opponent. They smiled genially, :exchanged felicitations on the drop in the temperature and other commonplaces, and then departed to catch their trains. Mr. Bryan, replying to President Roosevelt's recent letter said he was willing to make public his 1896 fund of less than $100,000 if the president would make. public Mark Hanna's fund of that year. Governor Haskell of Oklahoma in another letter to President Roosevelt accuses him of enlarging on a maga> zine article while attacking Haskell and challenged him to publish the in- terlor department record to substanti- ate his claim that he did not favor the Standard Oil company. Haskell also appeals to Oklahomans for funds to fight corporate oppression. Both polltical parties have complet- ed plans for a tremendous battle in New York before the clase of the campaign, \ Democratic State Chairman” Con- ‘nors of New York has issued a list of names and figures purporting to show that Governor Hughes was elected by the use of tainted money two years: ago.

Mr. Taft-was well received in Min- nesota, speaking in good, voice with, overcoat collar turned up because of snow. When an aged woman indorsed one of his statements he gallantly’ re- ferred to her as probably the head, of a famfly of sturdy sons.
