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. The Savannah Tribune. LATE NEWS NOTES. General. The people on the island of Crete, stirred, by the events in southeastern Europe, the independence of Bulgarina, and the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, by Austria, have arisen and proclaimed a union with Greece. For ten hours·Mrs. William Welss of Vrnesland, Michigan, stood up to her necked water in a clister to save a 2-year-old boy, Mrs. Welss saw the baby, a child neighbor, fall into the clister. She instantly plunged after him and finding him at the bottom, held him above the water. She called for help, but the clister is ten feet deep and no one heard her for over ten hours, when she was rescued in a fainting condition. She is seriously ill from the exposure, but it is thought that she will recover. The baby was unhurt. The St. Louis Times has given publicity to the following announcement: The St. Louis Times hereby offers a prize of $1,000 to the aviator who will first fly in a heavier than air machine (continuous flight) from St. Louis to Chicago or from St. Louis to Kansas City. This offer holds good for one year, from November 1, 1908, subject to conditions. 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." The ordinance provides for the closing of all municipal offices on that day except fire, police and health departments, in honor of the discovery of America. The council's action was taken upon petition of the Knights of Columbus. As the result of a collision between a yard engine and a special freight train on the Grand Trunk road, at Brantford, Ont., three trainmen were killed and two injured. The trial has begun in St. Petersburg, Russia, of a band of swimmers who by means of forged documents were successful in securing the savings of a number of Russian sailors who perished in the battle of the Sea of Japan. Among the criminals are several officials attached to one of the ministries. Improvement in export trade in New Orleans is indicated in the issue of the monthly report of the grain inspection department of the board of trade. For September, 1908, wheat exports were 90,000 bushels in excess of the same month last year. Corn exports fell slightly under the 1907 figures. 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. The new Mississippi law penalizing common carriers for the removal of suits originating in state courts to the federal courts, has been declared unconstitutional by Judge Wood, of the chancery court, in outer proceedings against the Louisville and Nashville railroad. A Jones, bookkeeper in the department of accounts at the Pensacola navy yard, who was shot four weeks ago by R. J. Owens, a prominent young man of the city, died in the government hospital in that city. Owens, as soon as he learned of the death, surrendered to the sheriff. Robbers committed a revolting crime in the village of Slobodze, Russia.

The civil service commission has issued a statement announcing that Paul W. Cox, a substitute clerk in the Robinson, Ill., postoffice, has been removed from office and J. H. Thomas, clerk in the Orangeburg, S. C., postoffice, severely reprimanded and reduced in salary from $900 to $800 a year, beginning last Thursday, both because of pernicious political activity. Pension Commissioner Vespaion Warner brought to the white house a large official envelope. marked "personal," which contained two crisp $500 United States bonds and draft for $170, the entire amount being "conscience money" returned by an old pensioner. The money will be placed with the treasury department in the "conscience fund." THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1908. 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. Brighten Beach Race Track—All automobile records were smashed to atoms in the 24-hour race at Brighten Beach, when a 50-power horse Simplex car covered the astonishing distance of 1,177 miles, beating the previous record 70 miles. The Lozier car and the Thomas car had a desperate battle for second place, the Lozier car winning out, covering 1,125 miles to the Thomas car's 1,115 miles. Three Miners Killed. 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. Volght, the president, presented his annual report, recommending that the Lutheran Theological Seminary, now located at Mount Pleasant, S.

Volght.-Charleston; vice president, L. L. Smith; treasurer, C. H. Euls; secretary, S. T. Hallman. PEACEMAKER KILLED IN DUEL Tried to Separate Wrestlers—Was Stabbed to Death. 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. Bunch, of Columbia, asking for copies of the constitution and by-laws of the two or three clubs in the association, to be used as models for an organization of farmers soon to be formed in Richland county. James Cox, a prominent farmer of Mitchell county, and his two sons, Turner and Cager Cox, were arrested charged with peonage. The farmers are accused of holding several hegrees in servitude and forcing them to work. Secretary of State Philip Cook, after a painful illness of six weeks from a carbuncle on his right arm, is convalescent and able to resume his regular duties at the capital.

"Asleep at His Telegraph Key." The Explanation of Many Serious Wrecks---A Danger Which the Most Improved Signalling Systems Have Not Altogether Eliminated---Difficulty Experienced by Railroad Officers In Preventing Subordinates From Becoming Careless ---The Man Who "Takes Chances" a Menace to the Traveling Public. There is an ancient saying that no particular harm is to be apprehended from a knave, as he can be guarded against, but that heaven is the only protection from a fool, because no one can tell what he may do next. This adage, attributed by them to the official in charge of transportation on the canals of Egypt, has been adopted by the general managers of railroads in this country, as their own particular property. It has unquestionably been heavily overworked in times past as applied to the "man underneath," in accounting to the public for wrecks which were really due to lack of judgment and foresight on the part of the operating officials and their superiors, the board of directors. There have been many instances in the history of American railroading, however, where "asleep at his post," or "forgot his orders," was the true explanations for bad accidents, with either enginemen, signalmen or train dispatchers as the offenders. From the latest accounts of the terrible wreck at Adobe, Col., last week, that disaster was clearly caused by a lapse of this kind on the part of one of the Denver and Rio Grande agents. In the face of negligence of the sort that killed upward of forty people in Colorado, the railroads are almost helpless. There is little that can be done to guard against such indifference to duty as that shown by a man, who will, no matter how great his 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 conscientiously. Once in a while, however, a fool will get by the boards of examiners by whom all railroad employees in responsible positions are now hired, and, when he does, only too often it takes a wreck to show him up. A Flagman Who "Lost His Head." Twenty years ago, one of the large railroads of the East was poor. There never has been a time when it hasn't been poor, but at this particular period the treasury had but recently been 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 life as the cost of rebuilding the roadbed and repairing the equipment. On a certain division of this railroad there was a young civil engineer who had beed but a few years out of college. By midnight raids on the "equipment pilies" of the neighboring divisions he had succeeded in building up the section of the line over which he was "road master," until it became the envy of the other division roadmasters, and attracted the notice of "the old man" himself. As Lowell said of two of Emerson's associates: "They might strip every tree and 'E would never catch 'em. His Hesperides have no rude dragon to watch 'em; gon to watch 'em; when they send him a dishful, and ask him to try 'em; He never suspects how the sly eemmen '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 foundation 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 rail 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 the laborer with him as witnesses. They found the man as pale as death sitting by the side of the track, his flag beside him. He was trembling like a leaf, and the only explanation he could give for his failure to signal the engineer was that the onrushing train frightened him so that he was unable to move hand or foot. Improbable as this seems, subsequent investigation proved that the same man was discharged from another road for having failed to flag a train that he had been sent out to stop. The swift approach of a train apparently affected him in much the same way that standing on the edge of a precipice does some persons. * A Strange Case of "Nerves." The tendency toward sudden "panie" on the part of men of this class who have once been involved in a wreck, constitutes a real danger in railroad life, and explains why it is often considered necessary by the master mechanics and superintendents to discharge the engineers and signalmen connected with an accident, even though they may not have been in any way responsible for it. An engineer who has once "gone into the ditch with his machine" is never the same man afterward, so far as his nerves are concerned, that he was before he had the horrible experience, and in a calling where self-possession is the first requisite, no amount of sympathy can blind 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 illustrates this point. An engineer with a long and excellent record for steadiness and loyalty to the company, plunged with his engine and two mall 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 degree to blame for it. He had a particularly 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 the great strike of '73, and made his regular run despite the danger to himself involved in refusing to obey the order of the union. After the accident he was put back on his 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 on one side, of the tracks and a steep precipice on the other, he suddenly shut off steam, whistled for brakes, for it was before the day of "air," and yelled to his fireman to jump. When an engineer gives that warning, his companion in the cab does not usually stand on the order of his going, but jumps first and looks afterwards. That's what the fireman in this case did, and when he came to, he found himself with a broken arm and cut head, at the foot of the hillside down which he had rolled. He picked himself up and scrambled as best he could to the track, looking for the rest of the wreck. Looming up in the moonlight 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 uninjured. "I swear by all that's holy, Jim," the engineer declared to the conductor. "I saw the headlight of another engine coming toward us on our track." The conductor was scornful and the fireman mad, and neither of them, of course, believed 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 engineer suddenly shut off steam and again called his fireman to look. There on the track in front of them was the light of a headlight so bright as to be almost blinding. The fireman saw, however, what had not struck the engineer when he first perceived it, that the light was the reflection 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 reflector. The engineer in this case was not discharged, but at his own request 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 another idiosyncrasy, however, which, while it is undoubtedly due to a state of mind, precludes the possibility of any feeling of sympathy for the person who is subject to it. The man who "takes chances" is justly the bane of railroad life, and is the one element next to spring freshets, most dreaded by the operating officers. Here is an example of the kind of thing such a man will do. A division engineer was one day making 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 object at the side of the road as the division engineer supposed. Instead, he pointed to a large boulder, the size of an egg crate, that had rolled down the hillside and lay directly between the rails in front of them. There was plenty of time to stop, and the division engineer expected the driver to shut off steam. Instead, he opened the throttle wide and yelled: The engine hit the rock with a mighty thud, rolled a trifle, and then settled down on the rails again, the boulder having gone over to one side. The division engineer, as soon as he could get possession of his voice, made the driver stop his engine. "You fool!" he called back as he climbed down from the cab, "I would not ride another mile on the same engine with you for a thousand dollars." The fireman, meaning to throw oil on the troubled waters, said: "Why, that's nothing, Mr. ____. Gus never stops for a little thing like that, and he's got the best record for time of any runner on the road." The division engineer left the road soon after this incident, so he never know what became of the engine driver. Before he went, however, he sent a full report of the occurrence to headquarters, and the man was in all probability discharged. According to the latest reports of the Adobe disaster, the accident was caused, by the negligence of a telegraph operator and signalman who fell asleep and was therefore not aware that the fated train had passed his station. This is one of the com-monest and most difficult dangers to deal with, confronting railroad officers. The strain of keeping awake during the hours when a person is normally in bed, in a little way station 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 resorted to by the railroad companies to insure that the men along the line are awake and doing their duty. Special calls are sent over the wires to the different agents-at frequent intervals, they are obliged to report to the train dispatcher every hour or two, and the conductors of passing trains are called upon to notify headquarters of any evidences of carelessness 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 operators go to sleep, as the Adobe accident shows. The following incident illustrates the fact that men who have attained to high positions in railroad life were themselves sometimes guilty of subterfuges as underlings which they were later anxious to detect and punish in their subordinates. A man who ended his career as president of the Lake Shore Road began life as a station agent, and is credited by his associates with inventing what was perhaps the first automatic signal ever put into practical operation. The station of which he was in charge lay far out on the prairies in Illinois, and with the exception 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 morning. The agent tried improving his mind with study, and then took to modeling in clay. Neither of these schemes worked, so he was finally forced to put aside the promise he had made his mother "never to gamble," and joined the "round robin" poker game which is as old as the institution of night telegraphy. Each man deals himself a poker hand, and then, as his turn comes round, calls his play. The stakes are always small, and are forwarded to the winner by the hand of a friendly conductor or brakeman. The poker game became tiresome after a time, and the agent compromised still further with his conscience. His sole duty after 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 thinking the matter over that so long as the signal was 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 sleep without danger of being detected. The signal was a crude one, but it answered 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 division superintendent, 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 discover whether he was talking to a man or a machine.—New York Evening Post. THINGS WORTH KNOWING There are two persons married in New York City each eleven minutes in the day. Few persons realize the volume of the real estate transactions in New York City. The records of the five boroughs show that there is an average of thirty deeds and twenty-seven mortgages filed for record every business hour of the year. Just 3,963,660 cords of wood were used in the United States, in the manufacture of paper pulp last year, twice as much as was used in 1898. Cape Nome is only two degrees below the Arctic circle, and yet probabilities are that within a year or two it will become the site of a town with all the modern improvements. The rush in the direction of the new gold fields is almost unprecedented, and if the expectations now entertained are realized, it will become the largest gold camp in the world. The royal palaces of Bängkok form a city in themselves. They consist of several hundred individual palaces, surrounded by magnificent gardens and pagodas. Persons who make it a business to contribute to the beautifying of women say that there are more of them with double chins in New York City than in any other city in the world. The extra chin comes after forty years, and there are about 112,000 of them in the city that the owners are trying to get rid of. WHAT WOMEN ARE WEARING 4 New York City.—The simpleblowes is always the useful one, and this 1 model can be closed with big buttons as illustrated or invisibly as liked, ```markdown ``` and can be made either high or with square Dutch neck and with plain long sleeves, or with those of elbow length, so that it really supplies a great many needs. When made as illustrated it is adapted either to the separate, waist for morning wear or to the shirt waist dress of linen and other washable material, while when made as shown in the small view, it becomes much more dressy and adapted to thinner, lighter fabrics, ar lawns, batistes, foulards and the like. For the finish of the square neck and elbow sleeves any banding or similar trimming that may be liked can be used, and with the high neck, waist can be worn any one of the fashionable collars of the day. The waist is made with fronts and back. It is tucked over the shoulders in a way to megn both breadth and tapering lines and again at the centre front. The long sleeves can be tucked or gathered at their lower edges and are finished with straight cuffs. The elbow sleeves are simply gathered into bands. The quantity of material required for the medium size is four and three-eight yards twenty-one or twenty-four, three and one-half yards thirty-two or two and one-half yards forty-four-inches wide, one and three-quarter yards of banding when Dutch neck and elbow sleeves are used. Earrings. Barrings are as popular as ever, but they are of more modest dimensions than the enormous-drops with which women weighted their ears last season. Good Figure Gone. The "good figure" is in such disfavor that one close observer states that within a certain circle it is considered vulgar to have such a figure. Girl's Tucked Dress. Just such a pretty little dress as this one is needed for every school girl, and this model can be made from lawn or batiste or from similar washable material, from the thin silks and ponges, that the girls are wearing so much, and, indeed, from every childish material. The skirt is an exceptionally pretty one, with an oddly shaped flounce, while the blouse is made with a yoke shaped in harmony therewith and with double sleeves that are distinctive and novel. As illustrated handkerchief lawn is trimmed with a simple lace banding and combined with a yoke of cross-barred dimity on which a little embroidery is seen. The dress consists of the blouse and the skirt, which are joined by a belt. The blouse is tucked at its upper edge and joined to the yoke, while it also is laid in wider tucks above the belt, which give needed weight to thin materials. The over sleeves are tucked below the shoulders, so that they are prettily and becomingly full while those beneath are of the simple puffed sort gathered into straight bands. The skirt is made in one 6 piece, which is joined to the flounce and the flounce is finished with a hem and tucks. 1 Natty Corday Caps. One of the nattiest of the Corday caps that are so becoming to youthful faces is of smoke-colored silk net with velvet band and soft, upstanding plume of glowing cerse. In answer to inquiries, from the United States, Consul-General Robert P. Skinner, of Marseilles, furnisheer the following information relative to the effect of wayside trees on French roads: "It is proposed to plant trees, along the roadsides of New York State in order to keep the moisture in the road and prevent ravelling, and the question has been raised 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 is that the trees are planted not only for furnishing shade, but in order to protect the roads themselves against the effects of excessive heat and drought. It is believed that the long, dry summer season is much more inimical to roads than severe cold. The chief officer in charge of the public roads in Marselles is of the opinion that, on the whole, New York roads would be benefited if bordered with trees, suggesting, however, that only such should be planted as have vertically descending roots. "F. Brist, civil engineer, and former conductor of the bureau of bridges and highways, expresses himself as follows on the subject: "In countries where the climate is damp roadside trees are prejudicial to the maintenance of the highways, as they prevent the circulation of the air and the drying of the soil; in most of the southern French regions such plantations are, on the other hand, very useful in dry weather, as they maintain the roadbed in a state of freshness favorable to its conservation. In general, trees should be selected with high spreading branches, such as the poplar, the elm, the ash, and they should be planted generally upon the outer edge of the roadbox 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-half metres (4.32 feet) square, and should be trimmed to a height of two and one-half metres (5.20 feet) above the surface. "The earth about newly planted trees should be loosened in March and November—in March only after the third year—and thereafter until their permanent growth appears assured; small trenches should be directed toward the foot of the tree, in order to secure the benefit of rains. Finally, the tree itself should be trimmed annually during the first ten years." "Consular Report. Problem World-Wide. Meeting new conditions successfully is essential to the progress of civilization. One hundred and twenty-five years ago Tresauget, of France, and Macadam, of Scotland, met the difficulty which arose from impassable roads by developing the modern macadamized highway. They argued that iron tires crushing down heavily the rock spread over the roads would ultimately result in giving a smooth, hard surface that would shed the water and remain the same in winter and summer. Their reasoning 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 rubber-tired automobiles destroy carefully macadamized roads. The roads in France in the last few years have deteriorated fully forty per cent. under the disintegration caused by the suction from the rubber tires 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 represented, to discuss a way of meeting this difficulty. This congress shows how much interest the whole world is taking in good roads, which, like the automobile, have come to stay wherever they have come at all. Virginia is making some progress toward better roads, but not enough. The increase of comfort and value which always follows good roads ought to urge the State to, redoubled efforts to secure improved highways everywhere: — Richmond Times-Dispatch. Work in Brazil. Brazil is bestirring herself over good road-construction. All over the Republic there are public enterprises for the construction of improved roads or the improvement of old roads as a necessary adjunct to agricultural and, other development of the country. It may be something of a surprise to the average reader to know that in the earlier days Brazil possessed some of the finest roadways in the world, the old Government highways before the day of railways comparing favorably with the best government highways of Europe of the same period. It is a generally well recognized fact, in all progressive countries, that good highways are one of the most important features of the general transportation problem, and transportation of farm products is the key to farm prosperity. Good road agitation and accomplishment in this country cannot progress any too rapidly, either by Federal, State or local means, American farms are to continue supreme. PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO. 462 West Broad Street. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, 'Ga', as Second-class mail matter. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: JAMES S. SHERMÄN, OF NEW YORK. In a short time boards of registrars will be appointed all over the state under the new registration law. Our young men especially should prepare to meet the requirements. If justice is given, we have no fear. THE disfranchisement enactment was ratified by a small majority, smaller than anticipated. It shows that if more of our people had registered, or even if all who were registered had voted solidly, the law would have been defeated. CHATHAM County is the banner county in the state in its vote against disfranchisement. It proves that the white citizens of the county are just what we have always claimed them to be the best in the country. We appreciate their vote in our behalf. BISHOP SMITH of the A. M.E. Church is an enthusiastic advocate and patron of colored enterprise. Some of his followers would profit by imitating him. In fact the ministers and members of this great church would stultify themselves to do other than patronize enterprises of the race. ANY colored man who claims that he is a democrat or will vote for Bryan is an endorser of the lynch law, disfranchisement, 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 sane colored man vote for a party that tolerates such wontonness against an humble class of citizens? THE TRIBUNE has always asserted that upon a, whole the white citizens of Savannah are the most liberal and friendly toward our people. This has been demonstrated in more ways than one, and it was demonstrated again on Westnes day when they showed their disapproval of the disfranchisement act by giving such a large vote against it. The colored citizens are also proud of the gentlemen who managed the election for their display of fairness. All of these things go to further cement the good feeling that exist here between the races. We appreciate our white friends for what they did, and will never forget it. One of Our Privileges Abridged. Last Tuesday, the measure that all loyal colored men of this state were against, the disfranchisement law, was ratified by a small majority. 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 comparatively small and which shows that there are many white men in the state who are in favor of fair play for the Negro. One thing is certain and that is, the very men who advocated the measure will live long enough to regret it. In this new act the humble class of whites will suffer more than the colored man, especially where 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 vain. Because of the passage of this measure, the colored citizens have no cause to become discouraged. It will not in the least prevent him from continuing to be the good and law abiding citizen that he has always been. It should not deter him from securing a home, accum- ulating property, saving his earnings, educating his children and doing those things that behoves a good-citizen. This disfranchisement act should be as an incentive to cause him to redouble his efforts for self betterment. We were honored during the week with a visit from Bishop C. S. Smith of the A. M. E Church, who is undoubtedly one of the leading and most practical thinkers of his church. The testimonials tendered him by our citizens will prove that they are in hearty accord with him and his views on public questions. Bishop Smith has always been a leader in all his walks in life. He has possibly done more practical 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 approval and we can heartily declare "amen." Bishop Smith is a hard worker and we can predict that during his quadrennial this Episcopal district will outstrip itself. Bishop Smith will always find a welcome in Savannah, not only from the members of his church, but the citizens at large. Political Notes. Colored men: Vote for Taft and Sherman, law and order; against Bryan, Tillman, Vardaman and Helfin. Think of having Vardaman as Secretary of the Treasury! That may happen if Bryan is elected. "We stuffed ballot boxes, we shot them; we are not ashamed of it."—Pitchfork Tillman, in a speech in the United States Senate. The 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 attempted to seperate them from their field hands. If any one has any idea that the great mass of the American people have any intention of allowing Mr. Bryan, 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 Minnesota, which may truly be described 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. His tour has made thousands of votes for the Republican ticket. COLORED MEN IN CONGRESS All Republicans. No Afro-American Democrat Ever Sat in National Legislature. A score of Afro-American have had the honor to sit in the Congress of the United States, and everyone was sent there by the Republican party. Here are their names: SENATORS. Hiram R. Revels of Mississippi. Blanche K. Bruce of Mississippi. REPRESENTATIVIS. R. H. Cain of South Carolina. Henry P. Cheatham of North Carolina. Robert C. De Large of South Carolina.

Robert Smalls of South Carolina. Flattering Opening. Beach Institute opened on Tuesday last with a large number of students. The prospects for a prosperous year is flattering. Baptist High School. Baptist High School. The Savannah Baptist High School will begin its first session at Jones' Hall, East Broad and Anderson Sts., Monday morning next. It is expected that parents whose children could not enter the public schools and others will have them on hand at the opening. This school will be conducted under the auspices of the Baptist churches of this city, but its teachings will be unsectarian. The-faculty will be made up of graduates of Atlanta Baptist College, Roger Williams University, Fisk University, State Industrial College, A. and M. College, Normal Ala., etc. The members of the faculty are: Rev. Dan'l W. Cannon, A. M. B. D., Principal; Mrs. Alice Brown, assistant principal, advanced grades; Rev. John H. May, D. D., Dean of Theology; Mrs. Mamie J. Holmes, Secy of Faculty, primary grades. St. Philip Dots. St Philip Dots. The attendance at each service on Sunday were the largest that have been in attendance for the past two months. Quite a number of our members have been absent on their vacation and are returning home. Many old, faces were greeted on their return. At the 12 a.m. services, the choir sung hymn 76, "Joy to the world the Lord is come" Rey. Lindsay's subject of discourse was the "Reign of God," the source of joy." It is a source of joy to know that there is a space bound for joy. There is a spot bound, even word that was said will long be remembered, and is surely a source of joy to hear such a sermon. The baptism services after preaching was very impressive, three adults and six infants were baptized. The instructions given by Rev. Lindsay were impressive and if heeded to will be a guide to their Christian career and benefit to their souls. At 4 a clock the Holy communion was celebrated. Rt. Rev. Bishop C. S. Smith D. D., of the sixth Episcopal district assisted by Revs. Lindsay, Gapps and Holmes administered the communion. The Bishop after the communion gave the congregation an interesting subject. Rev. Lindsay preached at 8:30 p.m. to one of the most representative crowds that have assembled at St. Philip for some time. Mrs. Martha Daniels one of St. Philip old and faithful members was buried from St. Philip on Monday afternoon. Sister Daniels has been a member of our church for a number of years and was respected by all who knew her. She has gone to receive her reward and hear that applaud, "well done thou good and faithful servant." St. Philip cannot afford to lose her standing, every member must pay their dollar money by the third Sunday in Ost. The members of St. Philip did their part well at the banquet tendered Bishop Smith on Wednesday night at the Monument. The fourth and last quarterly conference of the conference year 1908 was held in St. Philip on Friday night. The reports from the various departments were very gratifying, Presiding Elder R. M. S. Taylor, closed his fourth year as Presiding Elder of St. Philip. The following services will be held on tomorrow: Sunday. Prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m., preaching at 11 a.m., Sunday school at 3 p.m., preaching at 8:30 p.m. F. A. B; Church. The services of the First African Baptist Church, Franklin Square, are being well attended, despite the fact we have no pastor. The church have need to express appreciation in having the various ministers visiting it from time after time, and giving its members a deal of encouragement through some very scholarly and proficient sermons, in their hour of need. While the time is near approaching, when will it be to tell a pastor, make interest be manifested among the members, which give evidenced the church and naught but a voice of our accord is expected will echo from a memborship of nearly five thousand, the call of a leader to fill the sacred office made vacant only six times within the past one hundred and twenty years in the successive deaths of Revs. Andrew Marshall, Andrew Bryant, Wm. J. Campbell, Geo. Gibbons, Emanuel King, Love, and John W. Carr. Rev. Wm. Barron preached for us on last Sunday at the morning and evening services, also administered communion with the assistance of other visiting ministers in the afternoon. The theme of his discourse at the morning service was "The life we live" and at the evening service "The mind of Jesus." Both sermons were of a rich production, and every one present seemed to have enjoyed them from beginning to end. The communion services were indeed one of the most pious deacons on the staff and was always ready to give counsel. His emulative power to do good will be missing, not only in the First African Baptist Church, but in many other capacities which he was identified. He was supervisor 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 Association. During the Christmas holidays he always manifested a deal of interest in preparing a spread for the poor saints and would always be foremost in seeing that, the poor aged fathers and mothers of the church be given groceries, provisions and funds thereby cheering their hearts. Truly he was to them as the good St. Nicholas to the little ones that hang their stockings beside the fireside. His funeral which took place from the church on last Monday evening was one of the most impressive and well attended one that the church has witnessed for some time. Sister Elizabeth Robinson one of our young and promising church workers fell a victim to death on Tuesday and was buried from the church on Wednesday afternoon. We mourn as do the family in the loss of such valuable members for truly our phalanx on earth is broken, yet by faith we hope to form a solid phalanx with all our de parted ones on Heaven's frontier where parting will be no more. The Ministers Union. The Baptist Ministers Union met on Monday. Rev. G. W. Brown conducted the devotional exercises. Reprs of sermons as follows: Rev. John W. Thompson, A. M. D.

If these precautions are observed there will be no danger of mottles. Proper Care of the Horse. Farm Alcohol Out0t. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson is having built at Washington, D.C., a model denatured alcohol plant, which will be sent to fairs and conventions all over the country in an effort to educate the farmers in the processes of making denatured alcohol by utilizing water products. American Cultivator. The Shape of the Silo. When silos first came into use in this country they were invariably built rectangular or square and shallow. Then it was necessary to weight the silage down to keep it from spoiling. Later it was learned that greater depth would remove the necessity of weighting, but still the silage in the corners would spill because it could not be packed tight enough to exclude the air. The next improvement was that of boarding across the corners, making an octagonal interior. This was better, but not yet successful, and the idea of the round silo was gained, thus eliminating all corners or air space for silage to spoil, and the losses incurred by the air coming in contact with the contents of the silo were reduced to a minimum. Less lumber is required to build a circular silo of like capacity than a square one, and the material need not be so strong, to prevent bulging and spreading apart, so that the circular silo is not only the more efficient type, but should be a great deal cheaper. For these reasons the circular silo has become more popular, until at the present time we seldom see any other form being constructed.—Hugh G. Van Pelt, in Kimball's Dairy Farmer. An experienced dairyman who has handled a great deal of milk says his experience is that the bacteria rapidly increase when warm weather overtakes it, and that from May 1 to cold weather it becomes necessary to artificially lower the temperature in milk and thereby prevent the dreaded multiplying of a small number of bacteria into hundreds of thousands or millions. The remedy consists in providing for cooling or refrigeration devices on the farm and at the railroad stations and for refrigeration cars on the milk trains. Farmers who bring their milk into the city by wagon should be required to carry at least crushed boxes into which the milk cans or bottles are placed and packed with crushed ice. As for milk hauled to the railroad station, the distances are rarely great enough to warm the milk seriously in transit, provided it has been well chilled at the farm. Milk inspectors may be relled upon to call attention to any serious evading of the spirit of the law. Milk known as certified must, of course, be rightly kept down to standard temperature in all kinds of weather, and no latitude is permissible - Indiana Farmer. Making Good Butter. The washing of butter, says Professor McKay, of the dairy department of the Iqwa Agricultural College, is a more important factor in butter making than is generally supposed, and adds: "The keeping qualities as well as the flavor can be seriously affected by undesirable bacteria being transmitted through the wash water. I believe the time is not far distant when all wash water will be pasteurized or sterilized. Take the question of color or mottles—thousands of dollars are lost annually by butter being mottled. This defect is caused by an uneven distribution of salt. Take three lots of butter from the same churning, even where no artificial coloring has been added, salt one lot at the rate of a half ounce per pound, the second lot at an ounce and the third lot at one and one-half ounces, and the color will be so strikingly high, in the last lot that it could not be mixed with the other lots without showing streaks. This is no doubt due to the fact that salt has an affinity for water. The tendency is for them to run together and form a solution. When salt is used the water collects in large beads, thus giving the butter a darker shade of color. Whenever you find light streaks in butter you will invariably find no salt; therefore, the first consideration in sailing butter is to get good salt that will dissolve readily. The butter should not be drained very gait if it is inclined to wash on some. Salt should always be put on the butter in the churn and the churn revolved a few times to thoroughly incorporate salt and butter before putting rollers in gear, thus retaining as much moisture in the butter as pos- working in this condition, and then work until butter has become waxy in appearance and salt ceases to be gritty. If these precautions are observed there will be no danger of mottles. Proper Care of the Horse. It is a 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 to these things, says that such 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 his time in rubbing the body or smoothing the mane or tail of the animal and neglects his feet and legs, it is a mistake. 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 generally a high-class animal in all his proportions. A horse is not properly groomed unless his feet and legs have had special attention. The proper management of the horse to maintain soundness and efficiency is to feed him a variety of rations. Animals do better when their feed is varied occasionally. Many horses are fed for long intervals on ears of corn, and the process of shelling and grinding their rations often makes their teeth sors and they lose condition. If the feed were varied with alternate rations of cornmeal the condition of the animal would improve immensely. The horse will gain rapidly in weight and appearance when his grain ration is alternated with a feed of cornmeal. Owners of horses should personally look after their stables and see that the animals have the necessary variety of rations to maintain good appearance and efficiency as workers. Indiana Farmer. Calves For Good Cows. It has long been a problem how to increase the quality of the dairy herd by selecting and growing the most promising calves. It is the surest way to secure and keep up a first class dairy herd. Good breeding, care in selection, raising and feeding is the road to a solution of this whole matter. A dairyman in the Minnesota 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 raising their 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 cheapest way is to raise them on skim milk. Of course, skim milk must be supplemented by other feeds to replace in a measure the fat removed by skimming. Good foods are oil meal, oats, corn, bran, gluten or wheat. A more desirable feed is a mixture of all or some of these to form meal with a nutritive ratio of 1:5. A liberal supply of good hay should be kept before the calves. This is 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 bone meal should be supplied to furnish mineral matter. Bone meal is indispensable to cattle in 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 all the pure water they want after they have had their milk! When the change is complete the calf may get twelve pounds of skim milk and two pounds of grain, also all 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 six months the calf may get less milk, say, two pounds a week, until it gets none. Give plenty of good hay and grain, and a little silage may be fed. Do not get it fat and thus give a tendency to lay on flesh. Be sure to give the calf plenty of those two great necessities of life—salt and water. Early learned habits are remembered, and if you spoil your holder, you will have a spoiled cow. Never abuse calves, but make pets of them; let them have confidence in you. Train the little calves properly and you will have a herd that will be a source of satisfaction and revenue to you.

The utilization of the wind for doing a portion of man's work is as old, figuratively, as the hills. At least, the ancient Dutch windmill, with its four great sweeps, carries one back as far as it is necessary to go. Windmills were used in France and Italy in the twelfth century for grinding corn and in Holland in the fifteenth century for pumping water over the dykes into the sea. In the United States the windmill has had several seasons or spells of prosperity, when it looked as though everybody was getting a windmill, and likewise several periods of depression when it seemed as though everybody was down on and discarding the windmill. Americans are apt to go to extremes. When a thing becomes popular, it becomes awfully popular. It is in danger of being looked upon as an actual revolutionizer. As a matter of fact, the windmill has, a great deal of worth in many locations and its use is constantly increasing. If the old Dutch mill was, and for that matter is today, effective, certainly the high type Homemade Windmill. of American article is a power generator on the farm of great value, if the conditions are right for its use. It is foolish, yet it has been done in countless cases, to order an expensive windmill plant for pumping, before finding out that the water supply is a good one. The difference 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, is as great as is the difference between the civilization of to-day and that of one hundred years ago. The "big spring" undoubtedly did have a country-wide reputation for never going dry—in fact, in several years of 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". Navertholes, the "big spring", would likely last about sixty minutes if its waters were pumped to supply a good-sized tank. So that the first thing in considering a windmill for pumping is, have you a good water supply to pump? A fine water supply should certainly be recognized as a most valuable asset, and the question then arises as to its fullest utilization. In many cases nothing more economical than a windmill can be found for getting the water to the surface and forcing it into a tank high above the surroundings. Of course, there are power windmills for grinding, etc., as well as those rigged for pumping, and an immense amount of hard work can be accomplished by these former. It is an inspiring sight to travel through portions of Kansas and Nebraska, 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 established. Some of the mills improvised by the early settlers are crude enough but picturesque, nevertheless serviceable under the strong prairie winds. They may have been constructed entirely of dry goods boxes, resembling the paddle wheels of old stern wheeler river steamers. Others look like big pin wheels, and some have sails of old kerosene cans hammered out flat. In the Arkansas Valley in Kansas, one private pumping plant erected about five years ago at a cost of $8000, supplied water from the overflow of the Arkansas River for one thousand acres, and paid for itself the first year. The writer has a small, eight-foot windmill on his Virginia place, 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 sufficient size to take all the water from the windmill, enough storage could be provided by this small plant for the irrigation of from three to four acres.—Guy Elliott Mitchell, in the American Cultivator. "Mr." and "M." 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 is contended, was originally a form of address restricted to people of a certain standing, and has been cheapened even as "Esquire." But the case is not as "Esquire." It is only clear that "Master" was once markedly respectful, and in the form of "Mister" has become common property, while "Master" itself, curiously, has become confined to boys. At any rate, the fall has not been so great as in the case of the French "Monsieur." At one time even a saint was spoken of as "Monsieur St. Jean;" under the early Valois the king was "Monsieur" in public documents, and later it became the title of the king's younger brother. Nowadays "M." is merely on a level with "Mr."—London Chronicle.

The importance of the moustache question in Germany will shortly be manifested in a trial in the Rhine province, in which a wealthy silk manufacturer is suing an actress for damages in connection with the loss of his luxuriant facial adornment. The manufacturer made the acquaintance of the actress, a young and beautiful comedy artist socially. Meeting her at a dinner party a few weeks later, he extracted from her a promise to give him a kiss. She said she would if he promised to shave off his moustache. That was a heavy forfeit, as his moustache was locally famous, and gave its possessor a reputation for masculine beauty, of which he was exceedingly proud. Eventually he brought himself, however, to visit the barber, and had his moustache, shaved off. He informed the actress that her condition had been fulfilled and that he was ready for the kiss; but to his consternation he was notified that the lady had meantime become engaged and could not, therefore, keep the bargain. The disappointed caviller took his case to court, and, demanded that the actress either be compelled to kiss him or be ordered to pay $375 for breach of contract.—Berlin Correspondence Washington Star.

The Housekeeper's Error: A young married woman walked into a grocery store the other day angry to the roots of her hair. Throwing a piece of yellow substance on the counter she shrieked forth to the grocer's clerk who had taken refuge behind the counter: "Here, you swindler, is the soap that does the washing alone; the soap that makes wash day a thing of joy, when the housewife may sit in her easy chair and receive callers; the soap that makes a lather fine enough for a man to shave with; but which takes out every stain—no matter of what, nature—from the linen. Here is the soap—" "I beg your pardon, ma'am," began the clerk. "Never mind, sir; don't interrupt me." broke in the lrate bride. "But, ma'am," insisted the clerk, picking up the piece of yellow stuff the woman had thrown upon the counter, "this isn't soap, this is cheese." "Cheese!" exclaimed the astonished woman. "Cheese?" "Yes, ma'am, your husband bought three pounds of soap yesterday, and also three pounds of cheese. This is the cheese, ma'am?" "Well, that accounts for the other thing also," said the young housekeeper, becoming milder in temper, "That's why I couldn't get a sunday, and why—the welsh rabbit tasted so queerly, last night.

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.

"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.

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.

Mincey ‘organized a flourishing chapter at Summit. Several other conventions are being organized. ory There should be a strong Eastern Star Chapter at every Lodge. _ WHAT ARE YOU DOING. 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.

Illinois Freemason. 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.

Just what the envelopes-contained in the way of contributions or letters, is known only to the thief and Mr. Hitchcock, 3 _ Ex-Senator ‘Pettigrew told Mr, Bry- an that he had been offered $10,000 by the republican campaign managers to make ten speeches and that he had reason to believe that tie republl- cans are financing Tom Watson's populist campaign. 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 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. Republican State Chairman Woodruff replied with figures, assert~ {ng that of the democratic-indepen- dence league campaign funds, amount- ing to $313,020.11, W. R. Hearst gavé over $255,000.
