The CARNEGIE HERO MEDALS Awarded to Forty-Eight Heroes and Heroines. SOUTHERNER WAS HONORED William N. Williams of Alpharetta, Ga. Saved Baby From Fire, Was Given Medal and $1,000. Pittsburg, Pa.—The Carnegie hero fund commission handed down forty-eight names of heroes and heroes from Maine to Washington, and reaching far into the south. William N. Williams of Alpharetta, Ga., for heroism, has been noted a bronze medal and $1,000 to pay off his indebtedness for his bravery in saving the life of Lilliam M. Trammler, March 25, 1908. The Trammler child was but two years of age, and had been caught in a house afle, with its grandmother, who lost her life at the time. The fire was in a hut which was covered with a tar roof, and which burned fiercely. Williams saw the hut on fire and ran 300 yards to it. He did not know that there was any human being in the hut, but broke some windows to try and get into the house to save some furniture. He was driven back by the smoke, but hearing the cry of a baby, rushed through the flame and smoke and finally came forth with the little child. He was horribly burned. The fact that he wore a cotton shirt over a woolen undershirt and a heavy slouch hat at the time, is thought to have saved his life, as the burning tar was slow to take hold of this. The remains of the grandmother were found in the ruins next day. Each of the forty-eight persons was awarded a medal, bronze, silver or gold, and a number of them were also awarded cash for educational or other purposes. The cash awards amounted to about $40,000, of which $25,700 is given outright, the remainder being in monthly benefits to widows and children or other dependents. After 18 Years Woman Still Scatters Typhoid Fever Bacilli. Washington, D. C. One of the most remarkable discoveries in medical history in connection with the source of the spread of typhoid fever has just been brought to light as the result of an investigation made by officers of the public health and marine hospital service into a recent outbreak of that disease in Georgetown, or West Washington, District of Columbia. The investigation discloses the fact that a woman milker at a neighboring dairy, who had typhoid fever over eighteen years ago, still throws off virile typhoid fever bacillis, and was responsible for the spreading of the disease. With one exception, this is the first considerable outbreak of typhoid fever in the United States, traced through milk to such a carrier. A peculiar feature in connection with the case is that the examination developed large numbers of typhoid bacillin in the dejecta of the woman, although she apparently was enjoying good health. Surgeon General Wyman says an important source of the disease has been developed, which hereof has not been duly recognized. The case just discovered is deemed of special interest to health officers in tracing obscure cases of typhoid fever. Will Separate Lines for the Town and State Addresses. Washington, D. C.—A problem in mall ethics, whether the name of the city and that of the state should be written on the same line in addressing envelopes has figured considerably in correspondence with the postoffice department, and the fact has been brought out that persons who address envelopes with typewriters prefer the single line, while the great majority using the, pen place the name on separate lines. For some time past the division of dead letters has been sending out a card showing a model form of address, the name of the city and state appearing on the same line. In the discussion brought about by the adoption of this form of address, the weight of opinion favored a change to the two-line plan. It also was stated that placing the name of the city and state on separate lines facilitated the work of the postal clerks in distributing letters. Accordingly in the new address cards, which shortly will be printed, the name of the postoffice and that of the state will be on separate lines. Caboose Torn Loose From Couplings and Carried Over Filt. Cheyenne, Wyo.—As the result of an unprecedented accident on the Union Pacific at Lone Tree creek, thirty miles west of Cheyenne, six laborers are known to be dead and several others probably met death, while twenty-five or thirty others were injured, many very seriously. A terrific gale picked up the caboose of a work train, tore it away from its couplings and carried it over the edge of the fill. It dropped thirty feet with its forty occupants, nearly all of whom were section laborers, and the men were piled among the wreckage when it landed. VOL: XXIV. A REMARKABLE DISCOVERY. MODEL POSTAL CARD. GALE WRECKS TRAIN. LATE NEWS NOTES. Millions of grasshoppers have invaded' portions of Etowah county, Alabama, literally covering the ground. Some fear is expressed that the grasshoppers have migrated from the west and will be felt in the agricultural sections of the country in the spring. That President! Diaz has determined not to be a candidate to succeed himself as president of Mexico at the coming election in 1910 was stated in an article published by El Río Del Hegar, a leading newspaper of Mexico City. An edict was issued by the Chinese throne which sets forth that the government has $bandoned its monopoly of the optum-selling business. The license system is substituted. More than 114,000 people who had registered for the drawing of farms of the rich Rosebud Indian reservation found that Miss May A. Melzer, a Kennebec, S. D., school teacher, to have first choice as a result of the drawing of names. Mexico's coffee crop this year will be nearly three times as large as that of last year, which was $3,000,000 pounds. The Argentine government proposes to promote the development of national territories by the construction of railways and the formation of towns along their lines. Reports from Mississippi indicate a rapid increase in the demand for export humber at an advance of $4 to $5 per thousand over prices of a month ago. Interior demand is also large, at higher prices. "Black Hand" letters threatening to blow up the Moody church in Chicago were received by the Rev. A. C. Dixon, acting pastor of the church. The letters demanded that $1,000 be left in a cigar box on the porch of the church. At the hour set detectives watched for the appearance of suspicious persons, but none appeared. The wheat crop of Kansas has been estimated at 70,000,000 bushels, valued at $63,000,000, and the corn crop 140,000,000 bushels, valued at $70,000,-000. The board of agriculture of the state has placed the total value of the farm products at $50,600,000 more than that of 1907, which value is due not to increased amounts, but 20 per cent higher prices. Gus Rogers, the actor, one of the famous Rogers brothers, died in New York of appendicitis, Rogers had an attack of appendicitis in Chicago in 1902, but he deferred the operation. He was taken sick in Utica, N. Y., 3 weeks ago. Fire destroyed the trunk factory of Louis Goldsmith & Son in New York City. Loss $50,000. Fire Chief Astley and a battalion chief fell into the canal to escape a falling wall. The United States is one of the best patrons of the British pottery industry and it is estimated that forty per cent of the exports of unmanufactured clay come to this country. The estimate furnished the department of commerce and labor shows that the output of the British pottery is about $30,000,000 annually, while the total exports of manufactured pottery each year approximates $12,000,000. It is the intention og Comproller of the Currency Murray to increase the number of bank examinations during the year, especially in the cases of those national banks which have been guilty in the past of an infringement of the national banking laws. The comproller states that there are a number of banks which view some of the less important provisions of the law of small consequence. The total trade between Servia and this country grew from $36,582 in 1906 to $59,472 in 1907. Our exports are only nominal, amounting to $1,873 in 1906 and $175 in 1907. The imports last year consisted of $37,218 worth of goat and other skins and $22,079 worth of other articles. In the supreme court of the Unitted States Attorney General Bonaparte made a motion for the advancement on the docket of the anthrite coal cases involving the constitutional validity of the "commodities" clause of the Hepburn rate law. The chief justice stated that it would be necessary to take the request under advisement, There was an echo of the Brownville "shooting-up" incident in the supreme court of the United States when a motion to advance the case of Oscar W. Reid, on the docket, was filed in Reid's behalf, Reid belonged to the Twenty-fifth Infantry and the president dismissed him without honor on the charge of being implicated in the Brownville riot of August 13, 1906. The suit is to compel payment of Reid's salary up to the expiration of his enlistment. The oil production of the United States in 1907, say geological survey reports just issued, was characterized by a total output far in excess of any previous year, and an unparalleled accumulation of stocks, in spite of which the price of all grades of oil was kept at a high level. The sensational developments were the great increase in the new Illinois fields, the phenomenal yield in Oklahoma, together with increase in both quantity and price in California. Orders were issued from the white house to heads of all government departments directing that clerks and other employees who wish to go to their home states to vote shall be paid off October 29 their salaries up to and including the previous day. Washington THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1908. TWO LAWYERS LYNCHED $10,000 REWARD OFFERED By Governor of Tennessee----Regulation of Fishing Privileges in Reelfoot Lake Was Cause of Trouble. Union City, Tenn.—Judge R. Zach Taylor, aged 60 years, and Captain Quintin Rankin, of Trenton, Tenn., two of the most prominent attorneys in the state, were called from their hotel at Walnut Log, Tenn., by a mob of eighty men, and later Captain Rankin's body, riddled with bullets, was found hanging to a tree on the edge of Reelfoot Lake. Judge Taylor is believed to have been drowned. Another theory is that he is being held so that the Reelfoot Lake Fishing Company will offer a ransom for his return by agreeing to allow free fishing on Reelfoot Lake. Trouble has, been brewing there over fishing privileges. Rankin and Taylor organized and represented the Reelfoot Lake Fishing Company, which leased 'the fishing privileges from the West Tennessee Land Company. From Circuit Judge Harris they secured an injunction against fishing on Reelfoot Lake without permission. Harris was twice shot at and lives in fear of assassination. Governor Patterson has offered a $10,000 reward for the assassins, and has cancelled-all his dates to speak in the present political campaign. Two companies of state troops have arrived at Walnut Log and two more companies are under arms at Memphis, awaiting orders from the governor. Taylor and Rankin were accompanied by a surveyor, who is also missing. The lynching is said to be the work of night riders. Later—Zach Taylor, the aged lawyer who was taken from his hotel at Walnut Log, Tenn., at the same time Captain Rankin was lynched, has turned up near Tiptonville, having escaped from the fishermen night riders. After Captain Rankin was hanged, Judge Taylor says, the masked night riders got into a dispute among themselves as to what to do with him. Some favored his killing, while others wanted to hold him so as to force a concession to their demands for free fishing on Reedfoot Lake. While the riders disputed Taylor jumped from his guards, dashed to the edge of a bayou leading from the lake and plunged in swimming across. A hundred or more shots were fired at him but he escaped in the darkness. He was lost in the woods and when daylight came was afraid to go back to Walnut Log, but was found near Tiptonville. No arrests have been made as yet by the state officials. Governor Patterson has arrived at Walnut Log and announced that the reward for the arrest of the perpetrators of the outrage had been increased to $12,000. PHYSICIAN SAVE WOMAN From Premature Burial—Body Was Ready for the Grave. Ellis, Kan.—The timely intervention of a physician, who was not satisfied with the appearance of the body prevented the burial alive of Mrs. Thomas Chapman, 60 years old, who was supposed to have died suddenly of heart disease. The body was prepared for burial, but was not embalmed. A few minutes before the coffin was sealed, a physician requested permission to see the body. An examination confirmed his suspicions that the woman's body was made rigid by suspended animation. The woman was removed from the coffin, placed in bed and revived. While her heart is weak, it is believed that Mrs. Chapman will recover. FATAL TENEMENT FIRE Three Persons Were Killed and Four Others Badly Injured. New York City-Three persons were killed, four others badly injured and the lives of a hundred more were imperilled by fire in the six story tenement house at 83 East Third street. When the alarm swept through the crowded house there was a mad scrawble for fire escapes and windows and for twenty minutes the firemen and police were kept busy carrying the frightened ones to safety. It was not until the fire had been controlled and a search of the house was made that it was known any lives had been lost. Senator Tillman Home. New York City—United States Senator Benjamin R. Tillman of South Carolina accompanied by Mrs. Tillman, returned on the steamer Kroonland from a summer abroad in recuperation. The senator said he would take no part in the political campaign now closing. Sealed-Month of Fulll. Kansas City, Mo.—A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Miss Edith Wirt, a school teacher in Kansas City, Kan., because she pasted a strip of courtplaster across the lips of Harvey Gallaway, a 9-year-old pupil who talked too much in school. WARSHIPS AT YOKOHAMA. Noisy Welcome is Given the American Battleship Fleet by Japan. Yokohama, Japan. The American battleship fleet dropped anchor in the harbor at 9:30 o'clock Sunday morning. It was in the gray hours before dawn when the levlathans of America's great white battleship fleet were dimly discerned maneuvering off the entrance to Tokio bay, while sixteen warships, the pride of Japan, in sombre color, swung at their anchor buoys outside of the breakwater. From thousands of flag staffs and buildings at every point in the city floated the stars and stripes, and the entire lengths of miles of streets were almost walled with intertwined American and Japanese emblems. The enthusiasm of the people was evidently sincere, though mixed with the natural curiosity to see the big fighting ships from America, the long and successful cruise of which has marked a new epoch in naval history. Foreigners were in the minority in the crowds, but wherever they appeared, they were treated with exceptional courtesy because to the Japanese all foreigners must be Americans, many of the Japanese being unable to discriminate between Americans and those from other lands. When the fleet rounded Honmou point and came into full view of the city of Yokohama, the sixteen assembled Japanese warships began firing the salute to the rear admiral in command of the American fleet. The roar of the guns, the bursting fireworks, bombs, the shriek of the steam sirens with the drone of the deep whistles of the liners, filled the air with overwhelming sounds. Ashore, bedlam broke loose and words fall to describe the enthusiasm of the assembled thousands. When the American fleet finally came to anchor, it presented an imposing spectacle. Thirty-two great warships occupied four long columns of eight each. The Americans taking the place of honor in the forefront, the Japanese immediately behind them. As soon as the fleet came to anchor, a reception committee and attaches of the various foreign embassies and legations and the mayor of Yokohama put off from shore for the flagship Connecticut. Every vernacular newspaper in Yokohama and Toklo printed special illustrated editions containing enthusiastic articles with reference to the coming of the American fleet. 5.200 PERSONS DEAD. Typhoons in China Cause Enormous Loss of Life. Amoy, China—Full reports from the surrounding country show that the loss of life by typhoon of October 15 is much greater than at first reported. At Lam Cheng, sixty miles west of here, the town was almost wiped from the map, 600 houses having been totally destroyed and 500 persons killed. Five years ago Lam Cheng was flooded by the bursting of a dam and over 3,000 persons drowned. At Chang Chow more than 2,000 houses were destroyed and 1,200 persons killed. Four villages to the north of Chang Chow were destroyed between 400 and 500, people being killed. Many of the survivors of the storm in these villages have arrived here, but it is feared that many, weak from hunger and cold, have wandered into the hills and perished. NEWSY PARAGRAPHS. With the water in the Mississippi river only eighteen inches above its lowest record for thirty years, salt water fish are being caught daily on the New Orleans dock, about one hundred miles above the mouth of the river. The color of the river water has turned from a muddy brown to a slight green hue to the salt water of the gulf, forced up stream by the tide. Navigation is not interfered with by the low water. Money scarce, commerce practically at a standstill, most of the largest concerns asking for extensions of credit, imports light, exports falling off and trade in timber ceased altogether, is Paraguay's predicament as announced in a report from United States Consul Norton at Asunción. Merchants are buying only staple goods and absolute necessities and these in small quantities. The tobacco crop which was depended upon to bring some relief, is moving very slowly. There is about thirty-five million pounds (Paraguayan dollars) paper in circulation and exchange is now quoted at 1,400 per cent. A total of $1,295,263,420 in new money was printed and circulated by the bureau of engraving and printing during the last fiscal year, according to the annual report of Director Ralph. Details of a third huge graft of Cuban public moneys within the last two months is coming to light in an investigation of affairs of Miguel de la Torre, treasurer of the fiscal zone of Havana. He is charged with rifling the safe of the treasury department of nearly $200,000. He is under arrest, but refuses to state what became of the money. Cut off from escape while asleep by roaring flames, George Stafford, wife and their three children met death in their home at Paintsville, Ky. Central Europe is at present in the grip of the coldest weather that has been experienced in any month of October since 1866. The thermometer, ranges from 7 to 15 degrees below the freezing point. TEACHERS POORLY PAID Georgia Educator Tells of Conditions in the South. DÉPOPULATE RURAL SCHOOLS Tendenxy is for Farmer to Send Their Children to City Schools—Average Salary of Teachers $155 a Year. New York City.—That the average school teacher of the south was both underpaid and insufficiently educated for the position she held was the reason advanced by Jere M. Pound, superintendent of the Georgia state educational board, addressing the students of Teachers' College, in explanation of the slow progress made in the southern states along educational lines. "There are 736,000 school children in Georgia between the ages of 6 and 18," he said. "Now the state has appropriated $2,000,000 for their education, or, in other words, each child in the state is educated at an annual expense of $2.52%." "This makes the average salary of the common school teacher about twenty-nine or thirty dollars a month, or $155 a year since the school term only lasts five months. The state, therefore, pays its teachers less money than a drayman or a cook gets. "The result, of course, is that from 40 to 90 per cent of our common school teachers have never had any education other than that of the common schools. Those who are really well-trained deserve better pay, and we cannot keep them. In other words those in charge of the school children are no better educated, on the average, than the child of thirteen or fourteen years of age, with about four or five years of actual preparation. It is not strange, of course, that the average teacher lasts about four years and then leaves school to take up some more profitable business." Mr. Pound concluded his remarks by saying that the school systems in the south were depopulating the country districts, instead of building them up. "The tendency," he said, "is for the farmers to send their children to the city schools, where all consideration of their environment is neglected." WORLD TRIP ENDED. Big Battleships Anchor at Home After Remarkable Voyage. Portsmouth, N. H.—The battleship Maine, completing a voyage around the world, arrived at her dock here. During the voyage, which was started from Hampton Roads and which consumed three hundred and eight days, the two vessels covered about thirty-five thousand miles. The Alabama and the Maine left Hampton Hoads December 16, 1907, with the Atlantic Battleship fleet on its cruise through the straits of Magellan to the Pacific, the former as flagship of Admiral Sperry, commanding the fourth division, and the Maline attached to the third division. After the successful conclusion of the fleet's cruise to the Pacific it was announced that the warships would return to the Atlantic station by the way of the Philippine Islands and the Suez canal, and the Maine and Alabama were detached from the fleet, upon the recommendation of Rear Admiral Evans, and organized into a special squadron, under command of Captain Giles B, Harbor, commanding the Maine. Their places in the fleet were supplied by the battleships Wisconsin and Nebraska. The detachment of the Alabama and Maine from the combined fleet was due, in the case of the Alabama, to her inferior engines, and in the case of the Maine to her limited steaming capacity. The steaming radius of the Maine without recoaling is limited to three thousand seven hundred miles. CHECKS MAILED DEPOSITORS. Second Dividend Has Been Paid by the Neal Bank of Atlanta. Atlanta, Ga.-Nline thousand checks have been mailed out to the former depositor of the defunct Neal Bank of Atlanta by the Central Bank and Trust Corporation, receivers for this bank, aggregating $350,000', and representing the second dividend of 20 per cent on deposits paid these depositors this year. The bank hopes to make a third payment about the first of next year. BRIDEGROOM AGED 80 Aged Captain Manton Thwarts Relatives and Steals Bride in Auto. Providence, R. I.—Captain Benjamin D. Manton of Colonla, Uruguay, hale and hearty at 80 years, and reputed one of the wealthiest land owners in that part of South America, thwarted the opposition of his relatives here; dashed away with his flancee in an automobile and in Fall River married Miss*Sara E. Hartman of Philadelphia, a writer about half his old age. The romance which thus culminated in the captain's fourth matrimonial venture, had ita, inception in Uruguay a year or more ago, when Miss Hartman, in search of historical data, met Captain Manton. THE WEEK IN POLITICS Every national campaign gives occasion to men of original ideas to invent some catchy device which, because of the interest engendered by the national fight, will be sold by the thousand. One of the most ingenious things put on the market this year is a small tablet, like a medicine pellet, which, when dissolved in a finger bowl, resolves itself into a picture of Taft or Bryan, as the case may be. Already thousands of these tablets have been sold to New York hotels and restaurants. Eugene V. Debs, in Philadelphia, said "Roosevelt has reduced the office of president to the level of the ward heeling politician. With the republicans it is Wall street and Taft, and with the democrat it is Tammany and graft." Mr. Bryan, in his speech before the University of Nebraska, called Governor Hughes a "defender of trust," called attention to the contributions of Morgan, Rockefeller and others to his campaign fund and described him as a doctor who laughed at the prescription given by another physician, though refusing to furnish a prescription of his own. Mr. Taft has finished his tour of Ohio, making sixteen speeches. He devoted much time to the labor question and defended his decisions when on the bench in labor cases. He said labor conditions had thrived under the law as he had laid it down. He repeated his woman suffrage sentiments. Mr. Sherman, speaking in New Jersey, said Bryan was "dangerous" because he was sincere and would not be if he were a faker. Governor Hughes in New York spoke at Oswego, Waverly and Elmira to large audiences. He said the indications for the election of "Taft and Sherman, are very gratifying"; that he would sign no bills for popularity and "my family is largely dependent upon the insurance companies if anything happens to me." Ex-Senator W. A. Clark, of Montana will stump For Bryan, whose election, he says, would help and not hurt business interests. Samuel Gompers issued an appeal to laboring men to vote for Bryan. He called Taft the "originator and specific champion of discretionary government" and said "despicable power is as dangerous under ermine as under the crown." The total registration in New York is 681,602, which is 6,789 less than in 1904, the last presidential year, and 22,382 greater than in 1906. Republican doctrine received unexpected publicity through democratic channels when two van loads of campaign literature were unloaded in the mailing room of democratic national headquarters in Chicago. The literature intended for republican headquarters, a block away, was written in Bohemian, Lithuanian and Salvish and before it was discovered that the documents were appeals for the election of Mr. Taft, most of the literature was mailed to the voters. "If we had twenty-five speakers and $10,000 we could carry Georgia at this election," says Eugene V. Chafin, prohibition candidate for president in a speech at Logansport, Ind. "The party that is defeated will go to smash and drop out of existence. The only real issue in the campaign is prohibition. There is no power on earth that can prevent the prohibition party from electing a president in 1912." Treasurer Ridder's figures showed that the democratic national committee's campaign fund figures up to October 9 was $248,567, of which all but $22,604 had been expended, Chairman Mack gave out a supplemental statement showing receipts of $12,556 from seventy contributors between October 9 and 14. Mr. Bryan concluded his tour of Nebraska, speaking to large crowds, and left for Denver. He called President Roosevelt an imitator, said every predatory corporation in the country is back of Speaker Cannon and that if Cannon's most intimate friend, Sherman, was chosen to preside over the senate the people would be unable to obtain any remedial legislation. Mr. Taft received a warm welcome in Kentucky and made speeches in several cities. For the first time in some time he discussed the question of guaranteeing bank deposits. Unfortunately a chair broke under him and he fell to the floor. His careful inspection of the next chair offered caused laughter. Ignoring the protestations and screams of Mrs. William Randolph Hearst, who was disbelieving for the night, a deputy sheriff smashed in the door of the editor's compartment of a Union Pacific train at Omaha, Neb., and served him with papers of the notification suit for $666,000 that had been brought against him for slander and libel by Governor Haskell of Oklahoma. Mr. Sherman spoke on protection at Jamestown, N.Y. He seemed to enjoy disheying his physician's direction to talk only in whispers and to remain indoors as much as possible, by conversing with all who came along and by taking an automobile ride. All the forces that the democratic national committee can command will be brought into action within the next two weeks to make a successful fight for the democratic cause in Indiana and Ohio. It is further planned to send speakers of national prominence, including several United States senators, Into the middle west to aid in the fight for Mr. Bryan. Thomas·L.

San Francisco Barbers' Union has a membership of more than 700. Albany labor unions have erected and opened a tuberculosis pavilion. The various central bodies of Orange County, New York, have joined a county labor union. A reorganization of the building trades unions has been brought about in Buffalo, N. Y., after many years of warfare. It has been decided by the leather workers to make a universal demand for the eight-hour day within the next two years. In Liverpool, England, 10,000 longshoremen are idle, and the docks are filled with idle sailors and officers looking for berths. The accident report of the Illinois Bureau of Labor shows a list of 100 miners killed and 287 injured in Illinois from July 1, 1907, to July 1, 1908. The strike of the operatives in the textile industries of India has ended. Low wages and bad conditions of employment were the cause of the strike. International Cotton Spinners' Union has presented Samuel Ross, of New Bedford, Mass., its veteran secretary, with a silver service of fifty pieces. The paper mills of the International Paper Company in Franklin, N. H., started on full time, all the men having voted to accept the five per cent. cut down. The spinners and cardroom workers in Manchester, England, adjusted their differences with the manufacturers, agreeing, temporarily, to accept a five per cent. reduction. It was announced that workmen at the Brooklyn Navy Yard had won their, point and would be paid weekly. Church of Many Colors The Vicar of Merrow, Surrey, in the current issue of the parish magazine states that while the pews of the church are of a uniform type there is a great "variety in colors, patterns and shades of hussock, carpet and cushion." He adds that he would like to make a bonfire of them all, and suggests that in future the church wardens should be consulted before any upholstering is carried out—London Daily Mall. Get a Future. There are those who want to get away from all their past; who if they could, would fain begin all over again. Their life seems one long failure. But you must learn, you must let God teach you, that the only way to get rid of your past is to get a future out of it—Phillips Brooks. This company is duly chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia, and has complied with all requirements of the State Insurance department, therefore all policy holders are protected with all the safeguards that the strict insurance laws of this State seek to protect its citizens. Its affairs are directed and managed by Negro men of the city of Savannah of leading standing, and whose character and reputation are of such as to command the respect and confidence of all the people of that community. The same men that manage this Society are the ones that organized and are conducting the affairs of the first successful Negro Savings Bank in this state, therefore we can readily see that by connecting themselves with this Insurance company their interest will be in safe hands.

Y. — For the union services, of the churches on the Heights, the preacher Sunday was the Rev. Marlon Leroy Burton, Ph.D., pastor-elect of the Church of the Pilgrims. His subject was "Jesus the Prophet." He selected his text from Matthew 21:10-11: "And when He was come into Jerusalem, all the city was filled with worship. And the multitude said, This is Jesus the Prophet of Nazareth of Galilee." Dr. Burton said in substance: The central question of all this in Christian life is, how does Jesus save us; how are we to profit by Christ's life? It is impossible in this short time to answer but one phase of the three which our Saviour lived, as Prophet, Priest and King. Yet each conveys its part of truth upon a proper concept of His holy life. However, it is well to concentrate upon the prophet side of His life, not to imply at all any sense of separateness between them. We cannot give attention now to the kingly aspect, but to that of prophet, which Jesus lived for our salvation. What was it that caused the multitude to follow Him, and, as St. Matthew tells us, take Him"for a prophet? It was He who proclaimed the truth and in this light we can see how Jesus is related to our life." Without going into the questions and different divisions which naturally arise on all sides, let us consider how He lived as a prophet. In what sense does He stand as our prophet? In the first place, we know that He is a prophet in regard to God. He has revealed how God is taking us beneath His forgiveness and patience and ever watchful care—how we cease to exist without Him. Let us note, in the first place, Jesus' revelation of God's attitude toward sinfulness. There are those who declare sin is underestimated, but if we are wise, we can understand Jesus' true attitude in regard to sin. It is shown in His denunciations, in His opinions of the leaders of the day, in the Sermon on the Mount, all of which show His conception of sin. Not only the man who is the adulterer, but he who lives in conditions of lust, not only the murderer, but he who inspires the act and remains silent; not alone the perjurer, but he who fails to be truthful by keeping silent. These are "Mikewise" sippers. But God's attitude toward sin concerns not alone our outward acts, for the inner being is brought into accountability and cannot escape. Jesus has called upon us not only to do something that makes for our salvation, but also to have in mind that we should be something. It is of the inner self that the victory over sin has to be won. We should have a life not of action alone, but also of being. Jesus has taught the world the terrible consequences which are to follow our wrongdoing, that the man who sins will condone it by suffering. He has told the penalties of sin. He will deliver the punishment and better a millstone about his neck and perish in the sea. What awful penalties that follow the sinner! But not alone has Jesus revealed to us God's attitude toward sin, but in the second instance He has revealed God, through Himself, and has shown His manifold purposes of our destiny. Let us study the character and life of Jesus and we shall see that He has revealed God to us and shown His clemency and patience. Why was it the multitude followed Him? Because they took Him for a prophet? It is not that alone, but because of His magnetic personality, which attracted all to Him and made Him beloved of all men. No wonder the twelve disciples came at His call and served Him with true love and faith. It was not confined to this inner circle, however, that Jesus attracted men about Him by His wonderful personage. Nicodemus came to Jesus. The centurion was wont to seek Him out for counsel. The multitude listened to His words of wisdom. He was a friend of the publican and sinner. At the day of the feast the Greeks came and said, "We would see Jesus." He spoke in infinite love and drew all to Him. He sought to lead them through the paths of His truth and to teach them quietly, sincerely, of life and their salvation. How marvous and how perfect that He should lead and how perfect that He truth and a better and less sinful life. Witness Him teaching the multitude to teach ways of truth and see Him carry them to His Word. He knew that much of His teachings fell on barren soil and took no root, but He was patient with His people. Oh, the beauty and paths of the parting with His disciples! It passes all understanding. It was a crisis in the life of Jesus. He taught them the truth, and He led them out in vital existence. Teaching the people. Jesus was patient at all times. Even the same twelve men who gathered at His call to preach the Gospel to the world of others forgot His teaching of the Word. On the way to the Lost Supper they quarreled among themselves as to who was the greatest among them. But He was patient and forgave them. Did not the priests take before Him an adulteress, and when the accusers had fed, did He not say, "Where are those who condemn thee? Neither do I condemn thee. Go and sin no more." Oh, the infinite love and forgiveness of the Master! Then Jesus tells of the Prodigial Son and shows that forgiveness with the Father is possible. Peter sinned three times, and Peter sinned three times, and I alone has -Hé forgiven the sinners, but the marvelous basis for our wonder is that He suffered to save them. Jesus was willing to suffer for His truth, so that His attitude toward God and men might be recognized as the true way. These characteristics of the life of our Master reveal God's attitude toward us and His purpose in infinite love. Jesus has said that God is only satisfied to save men. He would have us know the eternal verities of life. Did Jesus forgive? Then, it is in God's will that He forgive the repentant. Did Jesus love? Then, God loves his servants and has patience with them, Did Jesus suffer? Then, in God is the heart of suffering Jesus is all that _God_ is in _infinita_ loyee. "Who hath seen Jesus hath seen God." "Oh, the~glorious wisdom~ of Htm who hath seen God!" Jesus was a prophet not only in telling us, of God's attitude toward sin, with clear positiveness, but He also was a prophet in regard to ourselves. He tells us what God is in all His glory and He tells us what man is, what we are ourselves. Jesus is the ideal type. The critics pass Him by. In His almighty wisdom, we see how ignorant we are. In His holliness, with its overpowering glory, we observe how saintful, how mean, how low we are. Study Jesus" life and draw out from you as you know yourselves to be. How small, infinitely small, do you seem! He has been a prophet, for He has shown how small we are. Two sides, the dark and the light, Jesus has shown us, but He has not alone given us view to the dark side by showing us our smallness. He has also brought up the light side and with full hopefulness not only tells us how small we are, but shows us our largeness. He tells us of the power and potentialities within us. "Ye, therefore, shall be perfect in love." You are a sinner, but you may be a son of God. Jesus is glorious as a prophet of God, for He tells us how it may be if we live as He lived. Not-only a prophet of God and men, Jesus sought to expand the revelation of God, and beneath it all, with prophetic note, gave the ideal relationship of life, that of father and son. Did time permit we could consider the many lights between God and man. Jesus came and in His earlier years lived in simple communion with His Father, before He gathered about Him His twelve disciples. He prayed in the mountains and prayed for the forgiveness of the sins of the world. He set the right relation between Son and the Father—a personal relationship. He never lost hope in all His suffering, but trusted in His Father. In His life He would tell us that the infinite relation is that of Father and Son. Not only would Jesus teach us the ideal relationship between God and men, but He lived the life between man and man. Should we follow the precepts of Jesus, this relation of man to man would be one of sacred example. Follow the teachings of Jesus and get all the power and potentiality that is in you. Develop self by developing others. Find life by losifig it. It will be a victory for self, the inner self. By the Word of God we are one, or non-existent. Jesus tells us of God's relationship. How can any one ask, knowing these things and God's relationship to man, how he effects our salvation? Can any one be convinced and say, "Can Jesus save Me?" He demands of us our love. He demands that we follow Jesus and do what He did. He demands that we follow Him as Jesus did and secure salvation by His forgiveness. We know that the penalties of sin are awful, for Jesus has so taught us. The truth that I am small He has impressed upon me, but that I am to become larger through hope and forgiveness I know through His Jesus calls upon us to be prophets in His name. We can take His teachings throughout life, but we do not follow them. That is not recognition of the word. He has done His part and we should do ours. He cannot make us or we would not be personalities. Jesus said to the multitude, Christians, follow Me, and as the apostles, they left and followed Him. Jesus calls us up from our worship of gold and the money gods which we serve. He called to the people, love Me more, and they worshiped Him. He calls to us, love Me more. By Thy mercy we will hear Thy call and will serve Thee by love and service best of all. Not Common People "The common people heard Him gladly." That phrase may be misleading. What Mark says is not that the "common people," but that the "much people heard Him gladly." He does not mean to refer to a lower class of people. The Bible never calls this sort of people "common," and it was not the lower class of people that came to Christ in the crowds. There was the Pharisee, the Sadducee, the ruler, the publican, the Goor man—all classes, were drawn to Him. Where He came caste straightway melted away. When He came into Simon's house, the poor hurlot, who had never crossed the threshold before, went right in and came to His side. His reason Jesus can no more be the head of a labor church than of a capitalist club. He has nothing to do with men in sections. He deals with man as man, and when He looked out upon the crowds He did not see a Pharisee or a publican; He saw a man, a son of God by creation. He saw as God saw—Rev. G. Campbell Morgan. Notes For Workers ^ Here are some good suggestions for League workers: "Find your work where Christ has put you." "Seek to make at least one spot of the earth brighter by a deed of yours." "When you begin to worry, do not forget that God still has control of everything:" "Christ has redeemed and lifted you up, that you, in turn, may lift up others." "If you truly love God, your heart will be filled with His Spirit, and you will be obedient to His commands." "The true Christian is like the sun, which pursues his noiseless track, and everywhere leaves the effect of his beaming blessure on all." "One has well said that our chief concern should be, not to obtain higher places, but to fill well the places we already hold. Better fill a humble position well than occupy one above our ability."—Pittsburg Christian Advocate. Get a Future. There are those who want to get away from all their past; who if they could, would fain begin al. over again. Their life seems one long failure. But you must learn, you must, let God leach you, that the only way to get rid of your past is to get a future out of it.—Phillips Brooks. Poor Tools. The Lord does lots of good work with very poor tools. OF INTEREST TO WOMEN New York City.—Gulmpes make such an important feature of present dress that no girl can have too many. Here are two attractive styles which can be utilized both for lingerie materials and for the wash sliks that are so much used. The tucked gulmpe 10 is a very pretty,but simple one that is trimmed with embroidery between the groups of tucks. The plain one can be made with a fancy yoke on either a round or square outline,$^3$ and can be made as an entire gulme or 1 cut off and finished to form a chemisette, as liked. Both allow a choice of three sleeves, the long ones with deep cuffs, the long ones with straight bands, and those of elbow length. The gulmpes are made with front and backs, and are drawn up at the waist line by means of tapes inserted in a casing. The straight collar finishes the neck, and whatever the length of the sleeves they are gathered at their upper and lower edges and joined either to bands or cuffs. The quantity of material required for the medium size (twelve years) is, for either gulmpe, two and three-eighth yards twenty-four or thirty-two, or one and five-eighth yards forty-four-inches wide, with five and three-eighth yards of insertion, to make the tucked gulmpe as illustrated. Popular Waists. The white-blouse, with rose colored dots embroidered throughout, is one of the popular waists, and equally well liked is the waist in white, with bands of colored embroidery reaching from the collar to the belt. Many of the new waists show no yoke at all, nor is the genuine feature prominent. Tlie Sheath' Skirt. As for the exaggerated sheath skirt, it is entirely out of place on the street, and those who persist in wearing it will entail serious consequences on themselves from public opinion, active in its consideration of the style. The New Top Coat. Among the smart models shown for a service coat is one of thin-tweed in a two-toned stripe of gendarme blue. Girl's Bertha Collars. Bertha. collars suit the girls so perfectly that they are always worn, and here are some charming models that are novel, yet simple, and which can be utilized over any dress. No. 1 is made in handkerchief style with points at the shoulder, front and back, and can be finished with straight banding, as illustrated, or be scalloped on its edges or inset with lace or embroidery, as liked. No. 2 can be cut on the pointed line, as illustrated, and made with medallions and lace and with French knobs worked in the points to make an extremely elaborate collar, or can be cut round and finished simply by banding and frills, as shown in the smaller view. No. 3 is cut on a square outline, and is especially well adapted to banding and medallions. In this case these last are hand embroidered, while lace banding outlines them and frills of lawn finish the edges. Lace medallions or ready made ones of embroidery can be used, however, and embroidered banding can be made to take the place of lace, or the material can be outlined by the banding and the squares filled with some little bit of embroidery, if better liked. Each bertha is made in one piece. No. 1 is quite plain, but Nos. 2 and 3 are perforated for the medallions and for the banding, which make such effective trimming. The quantity of material required for the fourteen year size is three- A fourth yard thirty-two inches wide for any bertha; three and one-fourth yards of banding for No. 1; nine medallions, five yards of insertion, three and three-fourth yards of edging, or $\textcircled{1}$ $\textcircled{2}$ $\textcircled{3}$ $\textcircled{4}$ three-yards of edging and three and one-half yards of insertion for No. 2. ten medallions, four and one-half yards of insertion, three and one-fourth yards of edging for No. 3. . Gray is Worn. Gray is much worn, though not a heralded color. The paler shades, such as pearl and silver, are the favored tones, and, as a rule, gowns of this dainty color show a relief by way of contrasting trimming. Arrival of Cretonea Ribbon. The latest recruit to the ranks of things cretonne is the cretonne ribbon. This comes in a very wille width. FOR THE FARMER AND STOCKMAN Humus Necessary. Fertilizers will always bring better results on soils abounding in humus or organic decay than in those that are destitute of this. Death to Chicks. Dampness means death to the young pouls. If turkey raisers would make a note of this and see that surroundings are clean, dry and well ventilated and free from vermin, the death rate would be much lessened. Change quarters unless they meet all requirements and see that the brood is free from vermin, which are an insidious enemy, slowly sapping the life away, and rendering the victims susceptible to every disease that fowls are heir to.—Farmers' Home Journal. Individual Records of Dairy Cows. The records of two cows for three years are presented in a circular of the Ohio station for the purpose of illustrating the value of accurate knowledge concerning the production of each cow in the dairy herd. One cow produced on an average for three years 5754.9 pounds of milk and 330.2 pounds of fat at a profit of $50.72 over cost of food, and the other cow 7365.1 pounds of milk and 231.4 pounds of fat at a profit of $24.82. These are not believed to be extreme differences, but such as might be found in average untested herds. —Weekly Witness. Light Weight Hog in Favor. It was only a very few years ago that the average farmer strived to get his hogs in such a condition before the time of butchery that it was next to impossible for them to move about, and when dressed the percentage of fat was by far too large. But now he has found out that the purchasing classes are not after this, but are after "streak of lean and streak of fat" pork, and choice hams of medium size and of superior flavor, as the large fatty hams will not find the number of purchasers they formerly did. At an institute last week I heard a gentleman explain this change by stating that when high prices were maintained in beef and mutton, pork was the only meat that was practically within the reach of the laboring classes, who are by far the largest consumers, and so they had but little opportunity, but this has all been changed, as beef, lamb and mutton have come down on a level with pork, which alters circumstances. Packers now pay the highest prices for hogs weighing between 150 and 175 pounds, so the typical hog should be one that will be fit to kill at about that weight, and it would, no doubt, be a great deal more profitable to kill at that figure even if the overweight paid more than double, pound for pound, for the grain consumed.—Weekly Witness. Sunlight Kills Germs. Light is admitted to our stables from all four sides, says Henry Stevens, in Farmers' Review. The size of the windows depends upon the height of the wall and the height to the ceiling. We use mostly two sash frame windows. These are usually just above the wall of the stable from two feet to two feet and a half from the floor and our cows stand facing the light. The windows are shaded in no way and allow the sunlight to enter to the greatest possible extent. We believe it easier to keep a well lighted stable clean, and certainly the incentive is greater. We also believe a large amount of light beneficial to the health of our cows. There certainly can be no healthier herd of cattle than our herd of Holsteins. Although we have 175 head, we very seldom have any slick, and scientists say that ten minutes of sunlight will kill tuberculosis bacilli. The sunshine certainly aids in keeping the stable sweet and dry. Most stables in this vicinity are well lighted, although there are a few of the old dark stables, but scarcely any among progressive up-to-date farmers. By all means put windows in a dark stable. In building a new stable we would have at least one-third of the wall space windows; one-half would be better. A very nice idea is in having only one sash frames and having them close together. The sash should be hung in the bottom of these frames and arranged so that they can be swung in six or seven inches at the top? V-shaped, boards on the side of the-frame, to keep out the wind and rain, the open space over the top covered with muslin, this ventilation without draft going upon the cattle; In very extreme weather they can be closed tight by shuttling them. Starting Right With Berries. Success with a strawberry bed depends largely on the preparation of the soil. Any good soil, provided the moisture conditions are right, will grow strawberries, but new land is best, though it must be thoroughly worked for at least two years with corn or potatoes before planting strawberries. In preparing the ground it is best to plow in a dressing of manure in the fall, and plow it up to the surface in the spring. It will then be just where the plants will need it, and in the best condition for assimilation by the roots. Do not let the ground dry up after plowing, but at once smooth off the surface of the bed and set the plants, marking the rows four feet wide, and putting the plants eighteen to thirty inches in the rows according to variety. Be sure to get the rows straight; this can be easily done by drawing a garden line' for the first row, using a three-row marker for the rest of the field. Before setting the plants trim off at least half of the roots and leaves and dip the roots into a mixture of water and clay—set the plants firmly with the crowns, even with the surface of the ground. Be sure that the roots are straight in the ground. Begin to cultivate the ground as soon as the surface shows the least tendency to dry up with a fine tooth cultivator, and continue this at least once a week during the growing season, provided the ground is not wet when you cultivate. Be sure to remove all blossoms and buds which appear the first year, and keep the surplus runners pulled off if you want a large crop of fruit the first year. In most varieties the plants should stand about six inches apart, but we find that there are varieties which do better when the plants are close together. One of the most important details about successful strawberry growing is setting the plants early in the spring. Plants should be dug, shipped and set before they make much new foliage. Root action is stronger early in the season, and even should the ground be dry, you will lose a much smaller per cent. than if planted late—Wilfrid Wheeler, in the American Cultivator. --- Keeping Quality of Apples. Here is a question, often asked at fruit growers' meetings, as answered in part by L, W, O., in Rural New Yorker: "Is it true that apples grown in sod have better keeping, quality than those grown under tillage?" No one seems to say yes or no without qualification. My own experience indicates that the cultivated apples are larger, lighter in color and less firm than those grown in sod. My sod fruit will certainly average smaller and considerably higher in color. Our only keeping test is that of putting all together in an ordinary cellar, as we sell most of our fruit early. From this test I feel sure that the sod apples are better keepers. In commercial apple culture this does-not make so much difference, as most apples are put at once into cold storage and kept there until sold. A large number of scientific experiments have been conducted with varying results. There is a certain definite time beyond which apples should not be in storage. After this period the sod fruit keeps best. The sod fruit manures earlier than the cultivated, and if picked at the same time is a little higher colored. This high colored matured fruit, of course, keeps better than immature fruit, especially with the earlier varieties, like Wealthy, Alexander and Fameuse. These varieties undoubtedly keep better when grown on sod land than fruit from tilled land picked at the same time. Where the latter was allowed to grow longer there is not much difference. In commercial orcharding I think more depends on other things, such as picking and handling. No matter how the apple is grown, bruising and rough handling will hurt the fruit. Farm Notes. A money making combination is the cow and the sow. Give the latter warm skim milk. Even if the flock of chicks has abundant range, still clabber cheese will be eaten greedily and is a good growth producer. A new remedy for worms in sheep and goats is to have a supply of salty tobacco leaves (waste leaves) where the animals can eat them. The horse collar which rubs up a lap of flesh at every stride of the animal will soon wear a gall on his neck. So will a dirty collar in warm weather. Fight lice by fighting dirt. It is useless to spray and powder if you allow droppings to pile up from week's end to week's end. Clean the house thoroughly at least weekly. If the demand is good for roasters, clean out the cull cockeers as soon as they prove their want of merits. Better make room for the others than have a lot of cheap cull cockeels on hand in the fall. Those who have tried it say that common axle grease, provided it is not of the salty kind, is a good rust preventive for agricultural implements and tools, being equal to a coat of varnish. The common wheat drill has been found the most, convenient implement, for planting cowpeas and soybeans, utilizing only the tubes needed to allow a proper distance between rows: In ordinary ground thirty-two to thirty-four inches is a satisfactory dis PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO. 482 West Broad Street. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Ga., as Second-Class mail matter. SATURDAY, OCT. 24, 1908 FOR PRESIDENT: Wm. H. TAFT, OF OHIO. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: JAMES S. SHERMAN, OF NEW YORK. The next birthday of Abraham Lincoln will be celebrated as the centenary of his birth. It is a number of months off, but it is well for us in some manner to prepare to observe the occasion. AMONG our new exchanges is "The Eye" published in Brooklyn, N. Y., and edited by a former Georgian, Mr. Sumner H. Lark. The Eye is full of good reading matter. While we do not agree with its politics, we command the enterprise; and wish it success. It is commendable to note the number of young men who are acquiring property in the city and county. This notes progress. It is a pity that more of our young men will not make a sacrifice in this direction. Instead of renting, secure a home, matters not how humble, and let the rent money go for its purchase. In January we will have a municipal election. It has been announced and upon good authority, that the present registration holds good for that election and disfranchisement will in no manner effect it. The only requirement will be the payment of this year's tax. It behooves our voters to lay pat and support the faction that will prove most friendly to their interest as a whole. The white south is beginning to reap the whirlwind. This is demonstrated in the lynching of a prominent white man in Tennessee and the attempted lynching of a brother of the junior United States Senator from the same state. The lynching of white men in other sections also prove our assortion. This is only a beginning. The mob practiced on colored persons and they are now sufficiently versed to lynch each other. Wright Lost Out Again. Because we published an article last May, giving an account of the Waynesboro convention speaking of his actions there, Prof. R. B. Wright entered suit against us for $5,000.00. He wanted to connect Col. Deveaux and his brother in the suit, but this was unsuccessful, for they have nothing to do with the publishing or management of THE TRIBUNE. The case came up on its merits in the city court last week. The jury was out only a few minutes when a verdict was rendered in our favor. Political Notes. The intelligent Negro does not worship false gods. He is thorougly familiar with the condition of his brother in the South, where Democracy is in the saddle. He knows that at heart that the leaders of the Democratic party do not wish his association in politics, but only hope to use him and disgruntle him against the Republican party, in order that they may, without benefit to him, be elevated into power. It does not need the declaration from the Democratic party that it is a white man's party to convince the Negro with any brains that his interest and future welfare and that of his race, lie in the hands of the Republican party. Under the kindly fostering care of the Republican party, that wiped the stain of slavery from the Stars and Stripes, with the blood of statemen, the colored race has established a world's recoil in the progress of civilization and enlightened, aggressive citizenship. Today colored men, and women, to the number of 13,978 are occupying positions in the government service under Republican administration, and draw in the aggregate SAVANNAH, OCTOBER 16, 1908. TO THE VOTERS OF THE DISTRICT: This district has done its duty in voting a majority against the outrageous and infamous amendment of disfranchisement to the Georgia constitution—which reflects great credit on the intelligence and sense of justice of the voters of the First District. The next election for President and Vice President of the United States is close at hand, being on Tuesday, November 3, and every man who voted at the last state election or who is registered, is entitled to vote at the coming election, as the result of the vote on disfranchisement does not effect your right to vote for President next month. The Republican party has nominated Judge W. H. Taft for president and Hon. James S. Sherman for vice president, and they prerepresent not only all the principles of our party from Abraham Lincoln to the present day, but they also stand for the prosperity of the nation, and against the wrongs being perpetrated by the Democratic party in attempting to rob the colored man of his ballot in Georgia. The committee appointed by the last Republican district convention has decided that they would not nominate a candidate for Congress in this election, but recommend that the voters do their full duty and get a big majority for Taft and Sherman. So there will be no candidate for Congress, at this election for whom you can vote. The chairman of each county will get his committee together at once and so organize as to have his men at each precinct with tickets on election day. The tickets will be sent out in due time. The great wave of Republican victory is rolling on through the mighty west and east, and success is assured. Let our voters in this district be at the polls on November 3rd and help to swell an overwhelming majority by voting for our candidates Judge W. H. Taft and Hon. James S. Sherman. J. H.

All three are good. If compared, I would place the three in the superlative degree. Then Ben Davis is right. Ben Davis is very frequently right. Ben will not bend and will not break. Ben is just simply the Ben that says things and bends Perhaps few colored people are aware that the number of Afro-Americans in the service of the Government, exclusive of the Army and Navy, has more than doubled in the last four years, under a Republican administration. Their aggregate pay has been increased from $3,000,000 in 1904 to more than $8,000,000 in 1908. The race has developed 30,000 teachers, 16,000 clergymen, 1,700 physicians and surgeons, 1,000 lawyers and 400 journalists and literary people. It has 209 institutions for higher education in the United States. In 1904 it owned property amounting to $1,160,000. In 1900 the farm property belonging to the Negroes was valued at $200,000,000. It operates 746,715 farms and owns 187,797 farms, or about 26 percent of the total. This is not a bad showing for a race which the Democrats declare to be unfit for citizenship. The instincts of self-preservation demand that the Americans Negro vote for Taft and Sherman and continuance of the Republican policies. World's Record of Progress Under the Republican policies the Negro race has flourished as no race ever flourished before in the history of the world. The illiteracy of the race at the time of emancipation was almost complete. When the census of 1890 was taken, it showed that this illiteracy had been reduced to about 44 per cent. Italy today has 38 per cent illiteracy; Spain 68 per cent; and Portugal 79 per cent. These are all white countries with centuries of civilization behind them. There are 40,000 Negro students in higher institutions of learning, purusing all branches from trade to classical and scientific courses. Forty thousand colored youths have graduated from secondary Institutions of learning, and 4,000 from colleges. Grit, Grace and Greenback These three words are found in and editorial of last week's issue of the Atlanta Independent. I plucked them from the garden of Ben Davis. He says get these three fundamentals and rise. Neglect to get them and remain stagnant and putrid. His advice is in order, the time is opportune and the demand is pressing—Grit grace and greenback! A wonderful trio. Personified, they are "three muskeeteers" of all round progressiveness. With grit and greenback and grace as a ballast no force can stay an upward trend. Any individual with grit, properly surcharged with common sense, will receive grace, both human and divine, and greenback will come as and offspring of the two. Grit is rigid and tempers the possessor thereof to the condition of whatever environment amidst which he may be thrown. Grace is smooth and wholesome—a grit from a source divine, and is a superb lubricator, preventing heat from friction on earth and offering relief from that intolerable heat that is made tolerable for those who exercise their grit erroneously on account of the absence of grace. Both are neces- sary to a profitable existence. greenback is the result of the combination of the two. All three are good. If compared, I would place the three in the superlative degree. Then Ben Davis is right. Ben Davis is very frequently right. Ben will not bend and will not break. Ben is just simply the Ben that says things and bends things. Ben does things—some queer things and men sometimes decry the things he does—the queer things—but finally say "He's er peach, aint he." Beu has grit. He may have grace. I reckon he has. If he has, he has, "grit, grace and greenback" and advises along the line of their getting. I am persuaded to believe that the possession of all of these fundamentals will, to say the least, make the world, though our eyes may be shut, issue the expression: "They are alive." COLORED VOTERS TAKE NOTICE A Vote for Bryan is a Vote for Lynching and Diffranchisement. Northern Negroes who may be inclined to vote for Bryan, lynching and disfranchisement, ought to be interested in the dispatch from Mississippi telling how a mob would not permit the bodies of two negroes whom they had lynched to be cut down until a train bearing Booker T. Washington had passed and until the celebrated negro educator had been a witness from a car window of the cruel spectacle. Booker T. Washington is noted for the moderation of his utterances, and it cannot be claimed that he has ever given provocation to violence. His abilities and energies are devoted to the uplifting of his race along educational and industrial lines, and he is esteemed by intelligent whites as well as blacks. Yet the prejudice which aims to keep the Negro down politically and socially could not spare Booker T. Washington, and the object of the Mississippi lynchers, every one of whom will no doubt vote for Bryan, was evidently to distress and humiliate that famous and talented Negro. The colored man in Ohio, New York or any other State who votes for Bryan and against Taft and a Republican administration, indorses the crimes of lynching mobs and helps to make it harder than ever for the Southern colored man to maintain his self-respect and escape insults and violence. Dots From St. Mary's Allow us to speak of the energetic work of our church now being carried on by Rev. F. F. Foreman, pastor of Mt. Plegha Baptist church.

An Interesting Lecture on November 5th. Many colored people in Savannah have dear relatives and good old friends in New York and they are certainly deeply interested in anything concerning them. It would therefore be interesting for them to hear an impartial account of the daily life of those dear and near to them. This opportunity will be given on Nov. 5th, when Father Dabent will give at the Beach Institute a lecture about his "Impressions on the colored people in New York." Father Dabent was not only sincerely devoted to the spiritual welfare of his stock in the great church of St. Benedict the Moor In New York, but he also took an active part in the moral and material advancement of the entire colored population: he is therefore well acquainted with the subject which he is going to treat. In the tableau which he is going to present, there are lights and shades, as it will show the bright and cheering side of the life of the colored population and also its dark and unpleasant side. The Rev. Lecturer will give his own personal impressions gathered by daily observation from the people amongst whom he worked and he will express them with sincerity and truth with out any partiality and prejudice. Seldom has such an opportunity been given to the colored people of this city, and they will certainly avail of it for their own benefit and instruction. A most charming little concert is being prepared by some of the members of St. Benedict's choir and their friends and they will brighten up the monotony, naturally attached even to the most interesting lecture. A well-known singer, whose name will be given later, has kindly consented to appear on the occasion. Tickets are being sold for 25 cents and may be procured at at St. Benedict's rectory 518 East Galston street or at the church office after the service on Sunday. This entertainment is given for the benefit of St. Benedict's Church, which wants some pressing improvements. IMPORTANT NOTICE. IMPORTANT NOTICE.

Owing to the fact that the handler-rod or stick of the ordinary umbrella is centrally disposed, a single person can occupy only one-half of the space beneath the umbrella, with the result that his outer shoulder is usually exposed to the drip and rain. To remedy this defect, two inventors of Bridgewater, Va., have designed an umbrella which when raised will have the handle located to one side of the centre, leaving the central portion of the sheltered space unobstructed. This umbrella when closed has substantially the appearance of the ordinary article. The umbrella stick is provided with the usual runner, but the stretchers instead of being connected to the runner, as in the or- A Unlque Umbrella. dinary umbrella, are attached to a carrier which is connected to the runner by means of a pair of linka. Hence, when the umbrella is closed, the ribs fold closely against the umbrella handle, but when the umbrella is raised they are tilted with respect to the handle, as illustrated in the engraving.—Scientific American. Don't Expect Enough. Most people do not expect enough of themselves. They do not realize that things they see other people do, and envy them the power of doing, they could do themselves if they only tried. So much of what seems to "come natural" to other people is only the result of long continued effort. We may not be able to do as well as they have done, but some measure of success in the same direction is within our power. — Home Ghat. Sprayer For Hose Nozzles. A simple attachment for hose nozzles has recently been invented, which will permit the operator to control the form of stream issuing from the nozzle. Thus the water may be permitted to flow either in a solid stream or it may be sprayed to any extent desired. The device consists of a pan-shaped blade, which is hinged Sprayer For Hose Nozzle. to the nozzle In such manner that it may be rocked toward or from the stream. The blade is formed with a handle which by means of a leaf spring bearing on the nozzle is normally pressed upward to keep the blade or deflector clear of the stream. When the operator so desires he may press on the handle, bringing the deflector into engagement with the stream, and thereby spraying the water.—Scientific American. Cooking Cattle Whole. One of the most popular forms of entertaining guests in the South is to hold a barbecue, as it is called. The host generally employs a skilled white or colored barbecue cook. A trench is dug in the ground and the bottom filled in with kindling and hard wood which will burn to coal. After Roasting Carcasses Whose For Barbecue. the fire has been made, carcasses of sheep, fowls, sometimes steers are fastened above the bed of coals and thus roasted to be cut up and served on long tables with vegetables and other vlands. One of the features of the barbecue is the roasting of the carcasses in the presence of the guests. This picture shows one of the roasting trenches with cattle being cooked over the live coals. Reversible Type Cabinet. A sectional type cabinet of interest to printers has been devised and patented by a Wisconsin man. With the ordinary printers' type cabinet but one man can work at the cabinet at the same time. Three or four compositors may be waiting to use the cabinet to get at some of the forty or ```markdown ``` fifty different cases of type. These objections are overcome in the improved cabinet shown here. Instead of all the type cases opening on one side, they are arranged to open on all four sides of the cabinet.—Washington Star. Crusade Against Cocaine. Baltimore, following the lead of New York State, has started a vigorous crusade against the cocaine evil, which is said to be particularly prevalent among the negroes of that city. An ordinance prohibiting the easy sale of the drug and making persons found with it in their possession subject to arrest has passed the City Council and Mayor Mahool has promised to sign it. Woman's Realm Rag-Time Salad.—The salad looked as though it might make a floral centrepiece for the table instead of being meant to be eaten, for the glass dish was traced about airily with cress, and in the green nest rested a picture in green and red. The bowl was first fringed with cress, inside it was carefully laid a ring of thinly sliced radishes, next another ring of cress, then green beans cut into small pieces, and in the centre a mound of small beets cut in tiny circles. The whole was marinated with a delicious French dressing. This is a new salad. It not only looks attractive, but is good eating. Miss Annie S. Peck, of Providence, R. I., the mountain climber, who succeeded in reaching an altitude of 25, 000 feet on Mount Huascaran, but later was compelled to return, to the lowlands on-account of the illness of one of her guides, determined to start on the second attempt to reach the summit. Huascaran is believed to be the highest peak in the Western Hemisphere. It towers above a noble group of volcanic summits in the south of Peru. A Woman's Hospital. A woman's hospital has just been opened in Berlin and has a staff composed entirely of women. Two sisters, Franziska and Henrietta Tiburius, both doctors, conceived the plan and created the hospital. At present it contains nineteen beds, and, any woman doctor in Berlin can send her patients there for attendance and for surgical operations. The United States has had such a hospital for upward of twenty-five years, the Telfair Hospital in Savannah. This hospital was built and is conducted according to plans set forth in the will of Miss Mary Telfair, who left it the bulk of her large property. It has in the neighborhood of fifty beds. New Way to Wear Ostrich Plumes New Way to Wear Ostrich Plumes. Ostrich plumes are fastened in an entirely new way. The drooping effects are not dethroned, but the straight positions that add so much to the height of the hat are considered smarter, and to obtain these the plumes are stiffened with fine silk wire. Another new trimming of charmingly decorative value for miladi's hats is a chou formed of four or five layers of chiffon or mousselle in different light tones. The effect of this silmy opalescent affair is absolutely delightful and nothing more graceful and dainty could be selected. Something entirely new and just as simple as it is pretty is the new cravat bow used by French modistes for holding in the desired erect positions ostrich plumes or brush effect nigrettes, and made of velvet or silk ribbon. This charming and unusually effective trifle is generally employed for the new one-side trimming effects that prevail at present, and it does not exclude the use of the popular head trimming.—Pittsburg Dispatch. Self-Belliant Girls Needed. The chief end of doctors is to teach people to keep well with the minimum of doctoring. The chief end of authority is to quality people for self-government. The chief end of parents and schools is to train children in wisdom and knowledge, that they may be able to take care of themselves. That has long been understood in its relation to boys. The idea of education for boys is to train them up through obedience to liberty. We want to make them free, and wise enough to thrive on freedom. As fast as they can bear it we put upon them increased responsibility for their own conduct, and their one use of time and money. What we want of them finally is not merely to respond with docility to the care that is taken, for them, but gradually to become qualified to take care of somebody else. And steadily and rapidly our civilization has been coming to have a like attitude toward girls. They are not boys in skirts, but very different creatures; their needs are different, their ideal work in life is different, the processes of education which seem most profitable for them are different, but in them, too, we grow more and more sollicitous to develop the capacity to take care of themselves, and eventually of others; to develop, indeed, all possible capacities that are not incompatible, with one another, and with the highest and best and most important destiny that life holds for girls. —Success Magazine. New York Helresses and Titles It is inevitable that our comments on the union of American helrasses to titled foreigners should, mainly be patriotic. But the effect of the international alliance is permanently registered on European society far more than on our own, and one of the most interesting phases of it has been the subject of remark in the London Saturday Review—The introduction of the free and independent American girl into the hushed nd protected zone of the Faubourg, where the "jeune fille" comes into flower in hot house innocence. The jealous care with which the French mother brings up her daughter is proverbial. But this particular proverb, unlike most others, is founded on existing fact. The "jeune fille" remains "the most innocent specimen of her kind on the Continent of Europe." She knows more than she is supposed to know, even in France. Curiosity persists everywhere. But the restraints put on unmarried girls in French society are in no sense obsolete. It is typical that "no carefully brought up girl is ever alone with a professor." It is typical that "scriptural history is much bowdlerized" and that the expurgation of French history is still more complete. One has only to recall the immense number of protracted novels written by Frenchmen of genius to understand the sanctity which hedges round the virgin daughters of the Republic. The amount of liberty allowed the carefully reared French girl is so slight that "a young Frenchman who is not bent upon marrying will very rarely care the society of girls who are kept very much to themselves." The observer whom we quote is undoubtedly right in advising his countrymen that "the smallest intimacy may be at any moment, if he is badly off, put an end to the friendship, and if; he is well off expose him to being asked what are his intentions. The fastidious ideal of the French parent has results not altogether happy. Marriages made in the drawing room are not the very best to stand the wear and tear of domestic intimacy. But the French respect for "covenance" is deep and the stark and serious individualism of the women of Ibsen or Tolstoy causes the French -woman of refinement, however divinely discontented, to shudder. Yet a change is gradually taking place, ascribed by the writer to our country women: 'There is hardly a French family that has not made some alliance with America, and the introduction of the American heless has been making a slow and gradual change. Many of these Americans are extremely adaptable and take up the manners and customs of the country of their adoption with all the fervor of converts. Some American mothers are more particular in this respect than French women, but the leaven is bound to assert itself, and liberty is slowly developing through the contact of the daughter of these unions, particularly if she has a mind of, her own, with her American cousins. If the American democracy could ever be introduced into the Faubourg, and by a person so little consciously democratic as the average American heiress, there would be a triumph much subtler than any of the usual "entente cordiale." But one is prepared to believe that the changa will be extremely slow.—Chicago Evening Post. Selling Gowns to Americans. Grace Margaret Gould tells in the Woman's Home Companion some of the ways the Parisian dressmaking establishments sell their goods to American women. Here is one ruse that she saw worked in one of the biggest establishments in Paris: "There was a sudden and evident commotion among the employees, 'The Princess! The Princess! She has arrived!' they cried. "American eyes began to bulge. "Out from a magnificent equipage at stepped a regally gowned grand lady, attended by footman and maid, and received by the whole bowing establishment, to the neglect of all other customers. She was in a gracious mood this day, and easy to be pleased, praising their past efforts and selecting several of their new creations without regard to cost. After she had made her departure amid like cermonies there was no need of the saleswoman bothering her head over suggestions. Every American woman present wanted a gown copied from the one the princess had bought, and she got it after much pleading and at a price far beyond the limft she had set. "And the point of this fable, in this: The Princess was no princess, but an employe of the house. "Every French gown has two prices—an American price and a French price. It is needless to say which is the greater price. "Along about April the cry goes up, 'The Americans are coming!' and then the prices go up, too. "Along about November, when the Americans have left, you might almost say they are giving away gowns, only the French woman never does give away anything. Then it is that the French woman in general and the French actress in particular selects her wardrobe." Brushes made of such thin-glass fibre that they are like spun silk are used by artists when decorating chin. Roads and the Farmer. Good roads cannot be secured without the co-operation of the ramer in maintaining them after they are once properly constructed under the supervision of the County Court. They need as much attention as the corn or tobacco crop, and the farmer is personally interested in their maintenance after they are once put in proper condition. It has become a custom to look upon the road proposition as a necessary evil, a utility that no one has a part in but the County Judge, the magistrate and the district supervisor or overseer, and that no one has a voice in the matter of keeping them up but these officials. The farmers are interested in the matter of good roads individually as well as collectively, and without their earnest cooperation they need not expect a better condition than now exists. An earnest, united effort will soon bring about a better condition, and with this condition comes the enhancement of the value of the farm and city property. From an economic standpoint, less wear of horseflesh and twice the amount hauled at one load, easy access to market at all seasons and under all conditions. Caldwell County has an abundance of material with which to build good roads all over the county, and it is up to the present generation to issue bonds and do its work. Get good roads and enjoy them while you live. If they cannot be paid out during your lifetime you will help your children and grandchildren to good highways and better resources to meet bonded indebtedness.-Princeton (Ky.) Leader. American Roads Bettering. From the maledictions scattered broadcast in the miro of roadless America by despairing bicyclists fifteen years ago hopes of better things have taken root. So writes C. F. Carter in the Technical World Magazine. No gift of prophecy is now required to foresee a time when these hopes will have so far materialized that a team, if it is a good one, will be able to haul an empty wagon over the gumbo roads of the Mississippi Valley in spring, and the public highways of the South will be so well buoyed that light draught automobiles may navigate them in comparative safety. From every part of the country comes the same encouraging news. Sixteen States now have highway commissions that are trying in various ways to supply the greatest need of the nation, which is good roads. At one extreme is New York, which, in 1905, voted to expend $500,000 in building roads. Under the plan adopted the State will build and maintain 333 miles connecting the principal cities, and pay one-half the cost of 4700 miles of local roads to be built by the counties. At the other extreme is Iow, the third State in the Union in extent of road mileage, where the use of the public highways is so vast that if teams enough could be assembled to do in one day all the traveling done in the State in a year the line would reach once and a half round the earth, which doles out an annual appropriation of $5000 to defray the expense of the State college faculty while acting in the capacity of highway commission. Rural Malls and Rural Roads. A notification sent out by the Postoffice Department should and doubtlessly will have considerable effect in stimulating the good roads movement. The notice is in substance that those rural communities which desire a continuance of their free delivery of mails must provide roads practicable in all sorts of weather and keep them in good condition. It will be the policy of the department to cut off the service over over roads that may not be traversed with comparative ease and in safety. It is not the wish of the department to deprive any community of the rural delivery service that shows appreciation of it, and no route will be discontinued on account of poor road until after a reasonable time has elapsed following notification of the necessity for improvements. For some time the department has been collecting data with respect to the condition of roads covered by rural free routes, and as far as possible, communication will be had with the road overseers or other persons responsible for the condition of the highways, and efforts will be made to have the road laws carried out. The rural free delivery system is not operated for profit. As a matter of fact it costs a very great deal more than it earns. Its deficiency each year is one of the heavy items of the department. But it is of great benefit to a large number of people, and that was the object of its creation. It is not more than fair that those who benefit by the service should give it all of the aid they can, especially in the way of making the roads safe and easy.-Savannah News. Américan Cigarettes. Even the extraordinarily low price cigarettes with which American manufacturers have flooded India hardly hold their own with the native "birl." The birl is now made in large quantities at Tirora. The tobacco is brought from so far affield as Madras and Asxam. Methodists at Seattle will build a large institutional church for the Japanese of that city, preferably installing as pastor the Rev. S. Yoshlok, the preacher at the First Methodist Church. General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value, a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its component parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying: that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success. That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed.

"Belleve me," said the Woman Who Drinks, "I'm a little weary of rhapsides over the supposedly superior intelligence of the women of bygone days. Why don't those so generous of praise give modern women a chance? It is a sort of mental fashion to assume that George Elliot and George Sand and Lady Mary Wortley Montague and Lady Blessington and others like them were peculiar to themselves and their periods; that no woman of today can hold a candle to them in any particular I wonder if that's true. Seems to me there are dozens of women in New York alone who are every bit as clever as those heroines of the past. Lady Montague wrote delightful letters, but the art of correspondence has not passed from earth, and—surely the cultured woman of today can be as sprightly.

My heart became so weak I would fall and lie unconscious for an hour at a time. The spells caught me sometimes two or three times a day. "My friends, and even the doctor, told me it was drinking coffee that caused the trouble. I would not believe it, and still drank coffee until I could not leave my room. "Then my doctor, who drinks Postum himself, persuaded me to stop coffee and try Postum. After much hesitation I concluded to try it. That was eight months ago. Since then I have had but few of those spells, none for more than four months. "I feel better, sleep better and am better every way.

Chicago, Ill.—How the wards of the state have been abused and tortured was the subject of a sensational recital by the Rev. Charles Virden, agent of the State Board of Charities, to the State Conference of Charities, held at Rock Island. His paper was entitled "The State Visitation of Children," and said, in part: "During the last two years I have personally handled approximately 550 special cases. Most of the children are well cared for when placed in family homes. The bad cases are exceptions. For example, I have found them tortured with hot irons, stabbed with toasting forks and scissors, limbs broken, hair torn out by the roots, lashed until black and blue from head to foot, faces cut and scarred and eyes blinded. The saddest part of life is no law in the State hibiting the sale of a child. In speaking of other the Rev. Mr. Virden, "A girl of thirteen ted by the duvenile a household drudge, found that she was by a horsewhip. The girl and placed in a good was given a chance for religious training. Burned With I "A girl, having a living, seven years home of a family at evidence showed that covered with bruises burned, her hands w "Numerous other cases of crime against children in the form of assault have been prosecuted, and in the three years of my incumbency ten of these offenders have been sent to the penitentiary and numerous jail commitments and fines have been imposed. Many Children Sold. "There has been a wholesale traffic in children in Illinois. I have a receipt in my possession for a child who had been sold for a stipulated price. "One of the most distressing cases occurred in Quincy, Ill., where a child was taken from its mother, a young girl, when less than an hour old, placed in a market basket, absolutely nude except for a covering of an old piece of quilt, carried about the streets and offered to any one who would accept it. The infant finally was given to a woman who had been a pensioner on the county for a number of years. "The evidence showed that this was at least the second child that had been sold from this institution. WORLD'S RUTHLESS WASTE. British Scientist Shudders at Big Steamers' Coal Consumption—No Substitute Yet London.—Henry E. Armstrong, professor of chemistry at the City and Guilds of London Central Institute, addressing the annual meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute at Middlesborough, said it was difficult to keep calm when he reflected upon the ruthless way the world's stores of timber, iron, coal and oil were being used up. It made the scientist shudder to see the indifference displayed in all civilized lands to the inevitable consequences of such waste in the nowise distant future. No comment was provoked by the fact that the steamers Lustania and Mauretania devour daily a thousand or more tons of coal while crossing the ocean. This extravagance was gloried in as an engineering achievement when it ought to be anathematized. The public comforted itself with the belief that, science would discover a substitute for coal, and therefore felt no compunction in recklessly destroying the capital won from the sun in past ages, but science could not at present support the illusion. Professor Armstrong earnestly urged serious scientific study of economical methods of fuel consumption, outlining the direction such study ought to take. SIGNS OF A COLD WINTER. New York City.—"There's no use talking, it's going to be a hard winter, no matter which Bill is elected," said the wise young man who had just returned from his vacation in Pike County, Pennsylvania, with a luxuriant crop of tan and freckles. "I forgot I ever knew so much about the country until I got out there again. I was born and raised in the country, and I'm proud of it. "How do I know it's going to be a hard winter? Well, here are some of the sure signs, and I surprised the farmers when I sprung my knowledge on them: "A heavy crop of nuts. You never saw the like of the butternuts, bickory nuts and chestnuts that there are going to be in less than a mouth now. "A big fruit crop and an abundance of wild grapes; the woods are full of this little wild fruit of the vine, and Chicago.—One dollar, payable in monthly installments of twenty-five cents, is the bequest given Andrew Heckler by his wife, Catherine E. Heckler, of Portland, Ore., whose will was filed in the Probate Court here. In the will Heckler is referred to as "the individual who married me in 1905 in San Diego, Cal., and who got from me thousands of dollars and when he could get no more deserted me." The estate consists of personal property. The saddest part of it all is that there is no law in the State of Illinois prohibiting the sale of a child." In speaking of other specific cases the Rev. Mr. Virden said: "A girl of thirteen years, committed by the duvenile Court, was made a household drudge. Our State agent found that she was being beaten with a horsewhip. The girl was removed and placed in a good home, where she was given a chance for education and religious training. Burned With Hot Knife. "A girl, having only one parent living, seven years old, was in the home of a family at Alton, Ill. The evidence showed that this child was covered with brushes. Her face was burned, her hands were hacked with a red hot knife and the sight of one eye was destroyed. The foster mother, charged with having inflicted these wounds, was fined for assault and battery, and will be tried under the cruelty act. "A girl was the victim of her stepfather's attacks for ten years, after she was seven years old. Her stepfather was sent to the penitentiary and the girl sent to a good home. "Two girls, aged five and ten, were forced to beg on the streets for their mother, who kept a disreputable resort. They are now in good homes." "A girl thirteen years old did the washing and ironing for a family of seven. She had no school advantages. An investigation showed that she wore her foster mother's old clothes and shoes; was overworked and received no salary; that her life was insured in the benefit of the mother-in-law in the home. The child was returned to the home on trial upon the cancellation of the life insurance policy, and promised that she was to receive new clothes and $2 a week. I protest against the insurance of the lives of these children." HLESS WASTE. ers' Coal Consumption--No Substitute Yet or more tons of coal while crossing the ocean.

What is Coming in the Way of Weather they will be delicious when the frost touches them. "Heavy husks on the corn. The farmers say that is a sure sign. "The cricket and katydid orchestras working overtime; that's a sure-enough indication of an early winter, too.

PLAN TO PROTECT GAME Sportsmen of Georgia Organize Protective Association. CALL ISSUED FOR MEMBERS The Standard Game Law Prohibiting the Sale of Game and Licensing Hunters to Be Passed. Atlanta, Ga.—A movement is being started to form an organization of the leading sportsmen of the state for the purpose of passing suitable game laws and to see that the law is enforced when passed. Charles T. Hophins of Atlanta has interested himself in this movement, and, with three others, has issued a card to the sportsmen of Georgia to co-operate in the movement. The game law now in force in Alabama, which is known as the standard game law, is the one that Mr. Hopkins and his associates are hoping to pass. The first purpose of this law is to prohibit the sale of game in the state, thus stopping the promiscuous shooting of game. The other principal features of the act are to fix a license of $1 on the residents of a county for a gun, and $15 license on a non-resident; to have all lands posted, so that a hunter cannot shoot on the tenant's land without his written permission. The law has been in vogue in the state of Alabama for the past two years, and has proven a success. The following card has been issued to the sportsmen of Georgia and all who are interested in this matter and want to see the game of the state protected, can become a member of the organization by sending their names to Charles L. Davis, Warm Springs, Ga., the secretary of the new association: To the Sportsmen of Georgia: Each of you realize that our game is rapidly vanishing to the extermination point—a result due to insufficient laws and the indifference of those interested. Only a little active, intelligent cooperation of the real sportsmen is needed to correct the evil. If you are willing to give a few moments of your time to the procurement of better laws and a more rigid enforcement of them, when obtained—whereby there may be game in plenty for all—then send a post card, with your name and address to Charles L. Davis, Warm Springs, Ga. He will act as present chairman and secretary for the Georgia Game Protective Association, and will proceed promptly to perfect a preliminary organization of Georgia sportsmen to the end above indicated. Please call your brother sportsman's attention to this communication. Chas. T. Hopkins, Atlanta; Seaton Grantland, Griffin; Charles Woolfolk, Columbus; Charles L. Davis, Warm Springs.

COTTON SEED CRUSHERS DAY Atlanta, Ga.—President W. H. McKenzie of the Cotton Seed Crushers Association of Georgia, through Secretary Fielding Wallace of Augusta, issued a call for the members of at Bryn Mawr College, will christen the association, representing every cotton seed oil mill in Georgia, to meet in Atlanta on Monday, October 19th, to celebrate "Cotton Seed Crushers" Day at the state fair. As a result, over five hundred members of the State and Interstate Associations were present on that occasion to enjoy the exercises at the state fair, the luncheon was served on the grounds and a smoker was given that night at the New Kimball, when a number of short talks were made by the guests.present. A large delegation attended from Albany, headed by R. G. Riley; from Dawson, headed by J. H. Fulford; from Montezunna, headed by President McKenzie; from Savannah, headed by G. T. Tennille; from Macon, headed by W. E. McCaw; from Carrollton, headed by J. A. Aycock; from Augusta, headed by Secretary Wallace. At the state fair the Cotton Seed Crushers' Association has arranged a most attractive exhibit. It is located in the garicultural hall. There, in charge of E. R. Ravenel, is shown all the products of the cotton seed, running through lint, linters, hulls, meal, crude oil, refined oil, soap stock, compounds for shortening and the various articles made from these products. On either side of the exhibit are cooking booths where cotton seed oil compound is used as a shortening instead of lard. · CONVICTS-IN DEMAND. Various Counties Throughout the State Ask for Prisoners. Atlanta, Ga.-Letters received from various counties over the state by the prison commisson indicate that all of the misdemeanor convicts now on hand will be taken, the officials of fifteen counties having signified their willingness to take this class of convicts. The letters in reply to inquiries sent out show that the counties will take from six to fifty each. Similar letters have been received in answer to inquiries as to the felony convicts, and the prison commission officials are of the opinion that all of the felony convicts will be disposed of in this manner. Within a short time the commission will have 600 mlsdemeanor convicts on its hands when the wild cat camps go out of business on November 1, and it is believed that all of these will be taken by the various counties. Americus Women Want Wirz Memorial in That City.

Taft, who is a student at the same college. THROUGHOUT·THE STATE. Good roads for Georgia will be the keynote of Governor-elect Joseph M. Brown's first message to the general assembly, next June, as indicated by him. In his first public speech in Atlanta at the "Good Roads Day" exercises at the state fair, when he stated that it was practically certain that the legislature, next year, would enact legislation looking toward good roads for Georgia. It was a keynote statement, and one which met with instant favor by the crowd which had gathered to see the practical side and hear the theoretical side of good road building in Georgia. As the direct result of the investigation made at the state farm by Colonel Calvin M. Hitch, executive secretary, and George Tumlin, which was ordered by Governor Smith, four cases were acted upon favorably and sent to the governor by the prison commission. Levi Copeland, sent up from Greene county in 1885 on a murder charge, for life, has his sentence commuted to present service; Mattie Vinson, who has been in the penitentiary since 1875 on a murder charge, is pardoned; Jane Chapman, sent up for life from Wilkes county in 1880, for murder, is pardoned, and another pardon is granted to Joseph Way, who has been in stripes since 1879 for murder. Most of those cases recommended by Colonel Hitch and Mr. Tumlin were those of convicts who had been in the penitentiary many years, and who had neither money nor influence to get any one to work in their behalf. Through the explosion of a soda water bottle, which badly injured his eye, John G. Copeland, of Bremen, proprietor of the Bremen Bottling Works, has lost one eye entirely, as it was found necessary by doctors in Atlanta to remove the eye. After a trip through a greater part of Georgia, distributing fish at the expense of the government, a car operated under the direction of the bureau of fisheries at Washington and in charge of E. K. Burnham, passed through Atlanta on the return trip for more supplies. The fish brought to Georgia came from the government hatchery at LaCrosse. Wis., and included black bass, catfish, bream, perch and crapple. The car carried more than one hundred cans; amount- THIRD. We put up first class goods, at a reasonable price, and guaranteed pure.

"The government has sent many thousands of fish into Georgia recently," said Mr. Burnham. "This is the fourth car that has visited Georgia during the past few weeks, and enough fish have been brought in to stock nearly every mill pond in the state. The fish are delivered free of charge to any person who has a place to keep them and they can be secured by notifying the proper department at Washington." Rev. Henry Wilmer, who is in jail at Rome charged with larceny after trust and embezzlement, has decided to occupy his time. writing sermons between now. and next January, when his trial will come off. The United States department of agriculture at Washington has donated to the First District Agricultural college at Statesboro, seven hundred volumes of books, bulletins and publications of different kinds. Some of the works are very valuable. The gift was secured by Professor O. T. Harper, of the agricultural department. Postmasters appointed for Georgia: Galloway, Fannin county, Joel T. Queen, yice H. Galloway, resigned; Union, Green county, Benjamin L. Brya, vice J. H. Barnes, resigned. Aaron Parks was appointed regular, and Johnnie Ethridge 'substitute rural carriers on Route 3. at Ty Ty. Ordinary S. L. Moore of Bullock county, has received a letter from the prison commission stating that Bullock county may have a number of misdemeanor convicts from now until the 1st of April without any cost except that of their transportation. The offer has been accepted. The county will take about fifteen convicts under this offer. The convicts will not be available until the 1st of November, at which time steps will be taken to secure them. An election for the issuance of $15,000 bonds, to install an electric light plant, has been ordered by the city council of Howkinsville. Efforts of sisters and a brother of P. T. Foye, late department store merchant of Savannah, who, in his will, were cut off with $1 each, to have Miss Susie Keane, an employee of the Foye company, who received $20,000 in the will, and James Daly, removed from their position as executors, failed when Judge Henry McAlpin, ordinary, asserted his inability to see where the executors had mismanaged the estate. On account of "general inefficiency in the present organization, all the way from top to bottom," as Adjutant General A.J. Scott expressed it, it has been determined to completely reorganize the Georgia naval militia, whose two- and only divisions are located in Savannah, under command of Commander Robert L. Colding. According to statements given out at the office of the adjutant general, the re-organization will be most sweeping. Invitations have been sent to Governor and Mrs. Hoke Smith, Governor-elect and Mrs. Joseph Brown, requesting them to accept the hospitality of the Savannah Automobile club during the races, November 25 and 26. Financial Suicide Number Has Grown With Surprising Rapidity in Last Two Years. Among these men who took their own lives because of ruinous finance are five prominent brokers, five bank cashiers, and seven bank presidents, showing that some bankers had imperilled their legitimate business and the money intrusted to them by others by illegitimate dealings in stocks or investments in risky projects. It is a curious feature of this sad record that so many bank officials should have been urged to death, the victims of their own folly and dishonesty. But they are not the only ones. The total list of those who have committed suicide since the 1st of January because of business misfortunes of various kinds is sixty-seven, and some of these cases also probably were due to the October panic. How many more will appear in the records time will show. The significant feature of it all is the rapid increase of this class of suicides. During the last twenty years the number has been small, but during the last two years it has grown with surprising rapidity. This may be due in part possibly to the general increase of suicides all over the country, for they are now increasing much faster than homicides. It may be due in part also to the increased social strain and competition, and the manla to get riches measured by millions, for hundreds of thousands are hardly considered as constituting wealth. But in the majority of these cases, and in all the cases where brokers and pank officials have been concerned, it was the inevitable exposure of dishonesty and illegitimate practices which could be concealed no longer, and which threatened the penitentiary and public disgrace.

INCE the panic in Wall street last October twenty-eight suicides have taken place which have been caused directly or indirectly by it. Even now, six months after that panic, suicides are recorded, one of the last being Charles Custer, the New York broker, who, a few days ago, after vainly striving to retrieve losses amounting to a million and a half dollars, by operations of a purely gambling character; at last gave up the hopeless game and shot himself. OUNG people need to tingle with sentiments, and the appoitite for excitement and sensation is at its height in the teens. Here is where the principle of vicariousness gives the teacher one of his-chief opportunities and resources. Excitement the young must have, for feelings are now their life.
