Eleven dead and many mere injured, some of them fatalir, 1s the record of the wreck, which was attended by un- usually gruesome scenes in the fa- - bound swamps of the lake shore. To add to the horror of the eituatton, the wreck caught fire, and only the heroic work of the surviving passengers pre- vented the cremation of those pinned down fn the debris. No one on the Great Northern Ex Press was seriously hurt, but those aboard the Northeastern local were not so fortunate. The nose of the bis express engine had torn its way en- Urely through the two rear coaches of the local, and the crash and the sound of splitting timbers was follow- ed by the wails ard groans of those pinned down in the wreckage wrought by the passage of the huge engine. Little Woods' has no: telegraph sta- tion, and serious delay was experienc. ed in getting a telepnone messege to New Orleans. Even then it was two hours before a rescue train arrived, and in fhe meantime the scenes around the emouldering wreck were heartrending. 2 .,. When the rescue party redched Lit- tle Woods the scene that met ther eyes was cne of terror, desolation, death. Tile wreck had’ causht fire and the first efforts of the passengers and the few fshermen and hunters lounging around the Lake Pontchar- train camp were directed toward sub- duing the flames, In this they had been’ partially successful, but little succor had been given to the badly injured and several of those died while lying beside: the smoldering de-. bri. Rude bandages had been bound abet thelr wounds in an effort to stop the flow of blood, and in many instances the !ater examinat{on of the railroad surgeons showed that more than one life had been saved in this manner. None worked harder than the wom- en passengers in this crude surgery. Tearing up underskirts, they hastily bathed the wounds of the injured and swathed them in bandages that stop- ped’ the flow of blood. It was the men who tore the cushlons from the re- maining seats of the wrecked coaches, Dut it was the women that tenderly Jaid. out the injured upon them and gave thelr- attention to nursing until the relief train arrived, ‘The cause of the wreck will be detl- nitely determined in an official investt- gation by the authorities, Red Blut, Cal—In a collision ve- tween an automobite and a locomotive in this elty four persons were killed and one slightly injured. The automobile carrying the Wil- lard family and Mrs, Hayes was struck by the engine of a special train car- rying General Superintendent Young and several division superintendets of the Southern Pacific rafiroad on a gen- eral tour of Inspection, ‘Mr. and Mrs, G.

They camp out on islands, in the forests, and always somewhere near the water, for everybody swims and bathes. Almost all classes sleep and eat al fresco at this time of year, and the town councils of the towns in this progressive and altogether delightful little country, provide public fireplaces and public bathing sheds in all places where the working classes go in search of fresh air. But the simple life is by no means dull with the frisky Finns. They combine it with a surprising amount of gayety. They eat, drink, and are very merry in their picturesque little log cabins outside the cities. When they are tired of bathing and splashing, they dance, they sing, they watch fireworks and practice gymnastics; they all become like children and are the very happiest, merriest, most good-natured, most easily pleased, and most healthy holiday makers in the world. We might take many leaves from the Finn's book.—Ladies' Pictorial. Battlers Keep Away Fishermen. There is a good fishing place over in Greene County which is but little visited and there are said to be black bass "as long as your arm." It is called Black Lake, a short distance beyond Greene's Lake, but to get to it one has to go among rattlesnakes, and it is the snakes that keep the fishermen away from the lake. A German who has a truck farm near the lake and who brings loals of vegetables to Hudson every spring and summer says the rattlesnakes are so numerous that he has been trying to get some of his neighbors to combine with him and buy half a dozen razorback hogs to let loose in the neighborhood and destroy the snakes, but his neighbors do not feel so inclined, and the snakes flourish.

The Kidnaping of Araminta Amelia. BY EFFIE STEVENS. Patty walked slowly down the front walk with Araminta Amelia, carefully wrapped up in grandma's gray knit shawl, in her arms. "Araminta Amelia was just recovering from an attack of the measles, and one could not be too careful, Patty thought. Usually Araminta Amelia indulged in the mumps—the measles were something' new in her somewhat varied experience of diseases. When Patty reached the big maple tree next to the street, she placed Araminta Amelia upon the bench that was built around its trunk. "The sun is considered good for sick people," Patty said to herself, unconsciously imitating Aunt Kate's decided tones. Then Patty ran over to the other side of the yard to see how her flower garden was growing. Alas! it was not growing very well. Patty was such a little girl that she often forgot to take proper care of it. While she was mourning, the minister came along. He lived near by, and was Patty's very good friend. "Hello! Who is this young lady?" he cried, picking Araminta Amella up. Patty came running to the spot. "Oh, you mustn't!" she exclaimed, breathlessly. "That's Araminta Amella, and she's got the measles. You might catch them." The minister laid Araminta Amella down upon the bench very suddenly, and pretended to look very much alarmed. The minister was splendid at make-believe, almost as good as Patty herself. That was one reason why they were such good friends. "Why didn't you tell me before?" he asked. "I haven't had the measles since I was two years, three months, and two weeks, to say nothing of days, hours, minutes and seconds, younger than you are, Miss Patty, and sometimes people do have the measles twice, you know." Patty nodded her head wisely. She knew all about it. "Araminta Amelia has had the measles four times since last Friday," she remarked, gravely. Friday was the day on which Patty had learned that there was such a disease as the measles. "You don't say so!" cried the minister in well simulated astonishment. "Well, if you leave her out, here all alone I am afraid some one may kidnap her." Then the minister hurried away, and Patty sat down beside Araminta Amelia with a perplexed frown upon her chubby face. Patty was just beginning to discover how many new things, especially words, a very little girl has to learn about. She puckered up her tiny brows and pursed her rosy lips, as she had seen grandma do when she was in doubt about anything, but it did not help her to understand the meaning of the funny word. "Kid-nap," she said slowly to herself. "Kid-nap. I know what a nap is. Araminta and I take a nap every afternoon. But kid—kid—" "Mamma wears kid gloves," she remembered after a moment. "Gloves and going to sleep. Oh, dear, that doesn't mean anything at all! This is a bad something that might happen to Araminta América. I'll run and ask mamma." So the little girl, forgetful of the possible danger that might befall her beloved dolly, left her on the bench alone, and ran into the house. "O mamma!" Patty cried, "what is a kid?" Mamma was busy, but she stopped a minute to answer her little daughter's question. "What is it about a kid?" she asked, wonderingly. "What is a kid?" Patty repeated eagerly, an idea coming to her suddenly. "What animal is a kid?" "Oh," replied mamma, "a kid is a baby goat. We saw one in the park a while ago, you know." "I remember," replied Patty, her face fairly beaming with smiles. "Thank you, mamma," and away she trotted. "I suppose the minister meant that a kid might come and trouble Araminta Amella while she was taking a nap, she mused, "though why he didn't say so I can't see." When Patty reached the bench, she stopped and stared and stared. Araminta Amelia was gone! Patty looked on the ground; she looked up and down the street; she even looked up into the branches of the tree, above her, although, of course, she knew better than to think Araminta Amelia had walked off or climbed a tree by herself; but no Araminta Amelia could she find. Patty began to cry as if her heart would break. Just then her big brother Tom came along. "Why, what's the matter here?" he asked, picking his small sister up in his strong arms. "A—a—kid's carried off Araminta Amelia," Patty sobbed despairingly. "You're my dearest brother!" Patty cried, hugging him extensively. "But it wasn't any youngster, it was just a kid—a baby goat." At that moment Rover, the dog, came running to meet them with something long and gray dragging behind him. "Why—why!" said Patty in amazement, "that's Araminta Amelia's shawl." "It looks very much like grandma's shawl," observed Tom, dryly, setting Patty down and unfastening the shawl, which had caught upon Rover's collar. "I borrowed it," replied Patty. "Grandma said I might." "All right," said Tom. "Rover, old fellow," addressing the puppy coaxingly, and showing him the shawl, "where did you get it? Show us, that's a good dog." But Rover only wagged his tall and barked joyously, as though he thought he had done something very smart indoed. By this time the entire family, with the exception of papa and the baby, had arrived upon the scene. Finally, Rover, evidently tired of keeping his great secret to himself, ran into the vegetable garden, behind the house, and began digging down into the soft earth. The others followed. All at once a bit of pink silk appeared above ground. Patty did not wait any longer. She dropped down upon her knees beside Rover and began digging as hard as she could. Between them, both it did not take very long to unearth poor, abused Araminta Amelia. "I guess your kid was only a puppy after all," said Tom laughing. "Yes," replied Patty in a puzzled way, "the minister said a kid would do something bad to her while she was taking a nap if I didn't take care. And I—I—ran off and forgot her. I'll never do it again. But I guess he meant Rover, though it was funny for him to call a dog a kid." Every one looked puzzled. What could Patty mean? "Just, what did the minister say, dearie? Tell mother," said mamma, putting her arms around Patty, who was beginning to cry once more. "He didn't say exactly those words," sobbed Patty; "but he meant them. He said kid and nan, anyway." Tom laughed. "Kidnap," he shouted, as soon as he could speak. At that the others laughed, too, and even Patty smiled through her tears, though she did not know what they were laughing about. Mamma, seeing her puzzled face, explained softly that, when the minister said one might kidnap Araminta Amella, he only meant that some one might carry her off. "And Rover did kidnap Araminta Amella," returned Patty. Thus Patty learned a new word.—The Congregationalist. Lawsuit Over 22 Cents. In Judge Eberhard's court in Chicago on Tuesday a jury, two lawyers and half a dozen witnesses spent three hours on a case involving the sum of twenty-two cents. Court adjourned before the charge of the judge was given to the jury. William Hindley went to a department store to make a purchase for his wife. The article wanted was not in stock, but the clerk gave him something "just as good," for twenty-two cents, with the agreement, he says, that it could be returned if not satisfactory. He returned with the goods and demanded his money, which in his complaint he says was refused, but that is a disputed point. Before the trial was commenced the manager of the store offered twenty-five cents in settlement, but Mr. Hindley is a lawyer, and three cents' premium is no inducement for him to give up the chances for a bill of costs.—Utica Press. "Orders by Pigeon Post." Sir—"Orders by pigeon post" is nothing new. Sixty years ago my father, a Lincolnshire clergyman, had a brother living in our market town of Boston (six miles from our parish) who kept a few carrier pigeons, and it was my father's habit when he drove into town on market day to bring back a pair of pigeons. My mother being an invalid, the doctor was often wanted very quickly, and my father used to fasten his orders to a bird, liberate it, and away it would go straight home, my father's brother executing the instructions at once. All special wants were for years dispatched to town in this way until my uncle died, when we lost our useful little messengers, who had saved us many a long, cold drive to our market town.—London Dally Mall. The chance of one finger mark being exactly like another is one in 64,000,000,000. PRETTY THINGS TO WEAR 1 New York City.—Simple tailored coats are among the smartest that young girls can wear. Nothing could M be more desirable than this particular model. It has the long sleeves that already are in demand, and it has darts at the shoulders, which mean ```markdown ``` perfect fit easily obtained; also it has novel pockets that give the characteristic tailor finish. In the illustration broadcloth is finished with collar and cuffs of silk, but all the suiting materials and all, those used for separate jackets are correct, so that the coat can be used for linen, taffeta and the like and made available for the late demand of the summer as well as for the heavier fabrics of the future. The coat is made with fronts, back and side-backs. The fronts are fitted by means of darts at the shoulders, and the back is arranged to form pleats at its edges, which are lapped over onto the side-backs. Pockgats are inserted and finished with laps, and there is a regulation collar with lapels at the neck. The cuffs are pretty shaped and allow effective use of banding or contrasting material. The quantity of material required for the sixteen-year size is four and a quarter yards twenty-seven, two and a half yards forty-four or two yards fifty-two inches wide, with one-half yard twenty-one inches wide for collar and cuffs. The Tulle Blouse. It is modish and very becoming. It needs no trimming and is made on the tailored plan. It is not gathered across the chest, but is worn with an immense jabot at the front. Lace Scarfs. The gauze scarf in lovely colors has been a leading fashion, and promises to be all winter, but its rival is one of baby Irish lace two and a half yards long. Sweet peas are fashionable in millinery, and really few flowers wear so well as these small, dainty blossoms. Being vari-colored, they do not easily show the ravages of either sun or dust, and their prim shape prevents a ragged or shabby appearance that is oftensen in flowers with larger, looser petals. Eight-Gored Skirt. The gored skirt that is relieved of severity by some arrangement of pleats at front and back is among the very latest to have appeared. This one is charmingly graceful, yet quite simple, and is adapted both to the house and to street wear. The princess style will be a favorite one for a long time to come, and is much to be commended wherever it is found becoming; but there are figures to which the one of regulation kind is better suited and the skirt can be cut off at the waist line and finished with a belt if desirable. In the illustration serge is finished simply with a stitched band of the material and with handsome buttons on the front panel. All fashionable materials that are heavy, enough to be made in so simple a style are appropriate, however. The skirt is cut in eight gores. The back gore is arranged to form a box pleat and the front-gore is laid in pleats that give the box pleat effect and conceal the seams. The quantity of material required for the medium size is twelve yards twenty-four, ten and a half yards thirty-two or five yards forty-four inches wide when material has figure M or nap; nine and a half yards twenty- four, seven and a quarter yards thri- *y* two or four and three-quarter ```markdown ``` yards forty-four inches wide when material has neither figure nor nap. Real Rosebud Hatpins Hatpins made from real rosebuds, by subjecting them to an electro bath which deposits metal on the bud, preserving it with all its delicate veining and tracery perfectly, are a novelty. Half Mourning Waist. A pretty walst worn by a young woman in half mourning was of white tulle. A jabot of the same material was edged with black tulle about two inches wide. Statistics and Comparisons of Nations of the World By P. B. VAN SYCKEL. From the Irvington (N.Y.) Gazette. There are comparatives found, along certain lines, in studying different nations of the world, which, to say the least, are interesting to ponder over. We are wont to claim that the United States surpasses all nations of the world in development and progress. While the United States is the youngest nation with which I propose to make certain comparisons, she has, by no means, therefore, followed her seniors in the examples they have set her along the lines which I shall pote. In some of these comparisons we should blush. In others the blush is on their side. The present population of the United States is between 85,000,000 and 95,000,000 people. The population of England is 36,998,178. The population of Germany is 56,367,178. The population of Russia is 106,204,-176. The population of Austria is 20,150,597. The population of Italy is 32,449,754. The population of Spain is 18,089,500. The population of France is 18,641,333. THE PART WATER PLAYS ON THE DESERT. It is difficult to comprehend the part that water, or rather the lack of water, plays in shaping the life of the desert. Mice and other small rodents, native to arid regions, have been known to live on hard seeds without green food for periods of several months or even as long as two or three years, and nothing in their behavior indicated that they ever took liquid in any form. I have hunted deer and peccary in Sonora in regions in which the only source of water was to be found in the cacti; even bands of domestic sheep reared in the arid regions, acquire a capacity for going without water for many weeks. Man, however, is poorly armed against the rigors of the desert. A horseman may go from morning of one day until some hour of the next, in midsummer, and neither he nor his horse may incur serious danger, and experiences of this kind are numerous. If the traveler is afoot, abstinence from water from sunrise to sunset is a serious inconvenience to him, and if he continues his journey, the following morning his sufferings may so disturb his mental balance that he may be unable to follow a trail, and by evening of that day, if he has not come to something drinkable, he may not recognize the friendly stream in his way, and instances are not unknown in which sufferers from thirst, have forded streams waist deep to wander out on the dry plain to a grisly death. Some estimate may be made of the actual amount necessary from the fact that the writer during the course of an ordinary day in May at Tusson, consumed sixteen pints of water. A walk of three or four miles was taken, but no especial muscular effort beyond this was involved. A march across the desert in midsummer would double this quantity. Under such circumstances, a canteen of less capacity than a gallon is a toy, and one of real usefulness, should contain at least twice that amount. The most notable example of endurance of thirst is that of a Mexican prospector, hunting for a "lost mine" near the old Camino del Diablo, or trail from Altar to Yuma, who made camp safely after being out for eight days with a supply sufficient for one. This experience is not likely to be duplicated soon, although it is reported that Indians often go as long as four days without water.—From "A Voyage Below Sea Level," by Dr.D.T. MacDougal, in The Outing Magazine. Imaginary Holidays. I know a man who can not afford to travel, and yet has a delightful way of deceiving himself. He learns about the cost of travelling, the proper clothing to be worn, gets a time table and arranges excursions for himself to various places, and then reads about them in books of travel. To the man with imagination it is a captivating occupation.—Hearth and Home. Although the population of London's metropolitan district is 2,000,000 larger than that of New York, the latter city does a restaurant business one-fifth greater than the former. To make the briefest possible comment on the above statistics, pointing to one particular only, allow me to compare the salaries paid to the executive heads of the six or eight leading nations of the world here mentioned. While the population of the United States is greater than that of either of the above named nations, except Russia, and the wealth of the United States is far greater than that of any other, four times greater than the wealth of Russia, yet the salary paid to the executive head of the United States is less than that paid to the executive head of any of the other nations mentioned, except Mexico and Canada. The salary paid to the President of the United States is 240 times less than that paid to the Czar of Russia, nearly eighty-five times less than that paid to the Emperor of Germany, and nearly forty times less than that paid to the King of England. It is obvious that a man's wage does not always compare equably with what he represents. Transplanted English Transplanted English If language is a true measure of conquest, as has been contended, tien Anglo-Saxon speech is rapidly conquering the European continent. It is a matter of interest to many to observe the increasing number of English words incorporated into colloquial French. This new but mild and pacific form of English invasion has led to the publication in Paris a list of words that have become more than "acclimated" and naturalized by general use in France. Many refer to sports and sporting, and in this group of words adopted from the English into French are turf, trotting, Tattersall, racer, malden, milord, carriage and gentleman rider. English drinks have no great vogue in France, but the French have adopted several of the English words that distinguisht them: gin, punch and grog. They have also taken the following English words: Lightweight, lawn tennis, Irish stew, home, handicap, ale, "all right", cocktail (which the French define as American, not English), bridge and bridge whist, bulfinch, block system, ballast, blackleg, event, dining car, destroyer, drag (mall coach), dandy, covert coat, commodore, full hand (poker), flyer, featherweight, 5 o'clock, fashion, hunter, jockey club, keepsake, knelckerbockers, lunch, macadam, mutton chop, outlaw, outrider, paddock, pedigree, plickles, porter, pudding, quick beginner, race horse, raglan (overcoat), rocking chal, roast beef, sandwich, self-made man, shocking, sleep car, snob, tipster, toast, top weight, tramway, trolley, truck, tunnel, tub, walkover wharf, waterproof and whisky. In Italy, too, may be seen the influence o the English tongue. "High life," pronounced "hig leaf," has long been in use in that country. "Lo sport," and "ill yacht," are everyday matters in the Italian kingdom; the press talk casually of "ill globe trotter," and "ill reporter," and "meetings," has usurped the place of all Latin synonyms, and in Italy gets its plural regularly—"meetingai," like any other good Italian noun. An interprising shop, calling itself "The Handy Things Company," advertises an ice cream freezer, "The Easy."—Harper's Weekly. No Railroad There. There is but one county without railroad connection in the State of Colorado. Heretofore it has been considered quite a distinction out there to be outside the railroad belt, and Grand, Rio Blanco, Baca and Routt counties were in the list of exclusives; but one after the other has been annexed, so to speak, to the outside world. Routt being the latest, until now little Baca County, away down in the southeast, corner of the State, is left to enjoy the honor all by itself. In 1868 there wasn't a foot of railroad track in the then territory.

We are glad to place again on our exchange list The Athens Clipper, which has resumed publication. The Clipper was founded and published by the lamented S. B. Davis until his death several years ago. When we were a "devil" Editor Davis was our foreman, hence our interest in the Clipper. EDITOR CARMACK was killed on Monday last in Nashville, Peace be to his soul. We are willing to forgive him. He was a bitter traducer of our race. Was he a martyr to the cause he represented, or was it retribution for the wrongs done to our race? LET us fully understand that after the first of January, the disfranchisement act goes into effect. As a race we can not afford to have our present number as registered out down, in fact we want this number increased. The only way that this can be realized is to have our men qualify under the disfranchisement act. The main qualification is the payment of all tax. Coupled with that you must be educationally qualified; or that you must be an old soldier or the descendant of a soldier who has served in any of the wars of this country; or that you own and reside on forty acres of land; or that you pay tax on five hundred dollars worth of property in this State. With a fair registration board, an applicant who is qualified can be registered under any of the above qualifications. One of the hardest tests will be the educational one. One of the easiest way to pass is for our men to become owners of at least the required amount of property. All of our leaders should begin instilling this matter in the minds of our young men, so that when the time comes we will be able to prove ourselves men, notwithstanding the attempt to place us is one sphere of serfdom. And again, it is necessary for us to disappoint that element among the lily whites that is anxious for the retirement of the Negro from active participation in Republican management in this State. Mr. John Williams, Oberlin, Ohio, has one of the finest book stores in the state. He supplies the students of Oberlin College The Negroes of Lousville, Ky. recently opened a theatre, owned and controlled by themselves: The seating capacity is about 600. The Southern Realty Company of Louisville, organized last month, with Mr. J. W. Williams as manager, have found it necessary to enlarge their apartments, owing to a great rush of business which is not confined to the city alone. There was opened in Greensboro, N. C., in October a branch store for the sale of different kinds of teas, coffees and spices. This is one of the results of the influence of the Business League recently organized here John Mitchell, Jr., attended last month the National Convention of American Bankers Association at Denver, Colorado. Mr Mitchell is the only colored member of the association. He is president of the Nickle Savings Bank, Richmond: Va., but is better known as the editor of the The Planet, one of the Negroes' best journals. There is a little town situated in the northwest corner of St. Clair county, Illinois, within a half an hour's ride of St. Louis; Mo., which is prosperous and growing, populated almost en tirely by Negroes and governed solely by members of the race. There are a few whites who have habitation in the place and who live in harmony and peace with the colored brothers, but have no voice in the municipal government, other than to vote once a year for the colored leaders. The name of this little town is Brooklyn with a growing population of 1900, who are intelligent, law-abiding, thrifty and manifestly proud of their achievements There are two principal streets lined with well kept stores, owned by prosperous Negroes. The town, covering an area of two miles square, is laid off in blocks that are filled with little houses provided with lawns and gardens. The streets are graded and the side walks before every building maintained at public expense. The chief public structure costing $5,000, is the city hall that serves for many purposes. The water supply is adequate, hydrants are plentiful and there has never been a serious loss of property from fire within the recent history of the town. Brooklyn is only a few miles from the great national stockyards, East St Louis, Mo. where the inhabitants find profitable employment, while building up their community to greater proportions.

No Interest, No Tax. Mr. Editor: The above is an ad which appeared in big black type in one of the daily papers of the city. Is not such an insult to the Negro Race? Would not the same be an insult to the Italians, Germans or Jews? It appears that the concern which, is not a Savannah concern, is offering for sale lots in the Southeastern section of the city, and in order to get sales they find it a good thing to jump on the Negro. Now these people do not have to sell to Negroes, so why insult the whole race? It seem that the time has come when we should begin to resent in some way such insults, and one of the best ways to do so is to let the other race feel it. This teaches us that the white man is for the white man, and if should also teach us that the Negro should be and stand for the Negro. If our people in Savannah would unite they could make themselves felt. Let us resent all such insults by standing by our men and women in business. Let the negro buy and build homes that will be a credit to any community, let him so confirm in business, until the white firms will be glad to offer good' positions to Negroes in order to hold their Negro trade, this should be taught in schools, it should be preached from every Negro pulpit. It should be discussed in every Negro society and let the world see and know that the Negro can resent such wholesale insults. We need more business men and women in Savannah, there is no need of fear that we will get too many, it will take a thousand Negro clerks and salesmen to wait on the 37,000 Negroes in Savannah. Why not combine so that these positons could be given our young men and women. Let us stand by our Banks, our Dry. good stores, our Shoe stores, Drug stores, Grocery stores, Millinery stores and Printing establishments, we are compelled to support our Barbers and Undertakers. Let the Negroes in Savannah wake up and take on new life and let the watch word be Negro business for the Negro. T. James Davis and the ' Apropos the Charity Hospital and the agencies which are now making it a success, I feel it incumbent upon me as a citizen and as an humble contributor to the institution, to call attention to the conspicuous service of Dr. Davis, one of its founders. Dr. Davis dead! Yes, "good and dead," and his memory, to an alarming extent, is "unwept and unsung." But. The deeds he wrought in days gone by, They live—and never must die." They live in the very existence of the Charity Hospital and in the life of it as fixity in this community, to serve the interests thereof and to furnish a subject for the living, who live to bring about its growth and perpetuity. Of the agencies which serve to keep it alive, we have nothing but words of highest commendation; but of the apparent disposition or inclination to even fail to refer to one of the powers that made its creation possible, I am constrained to express regrets. Regrets rather than criticism, because a knowledge of the relationship of the present management of the Hospital with the lamented Dr. Davis, is still fresh in my memory, and as a consequence I know that if the failure to mention his name was a sin, it was a sin of omission instead of one of commission. But, be it as it may, does it not show that we are forgetful of our heroic dead? Have we not forgotten the influence of Davis, Ross and Johnson all of whom together with that unique character, Mrs. Nutall, who stills lives, whose combined influence was the life of Charity Hospital in its infancy Do we recall the services of the intrepid Dr. Durham, whose position as a factor in our municipal life, has never been filled? But the service of our own Tom Davis was far more conspicuous and vital to Charity Hospital than all of these and in so much as he now— does it not seem that in matters of vital concern to the life and longevity of the institution, his great name and memory should demand special mention? He may not have lived to see a single graduate from the institution he loved but away off in spiritland, if spirits perceive he rejoices with the present management of the institution and with the public in general that one by one, the community and state are feeling the influence of thisinstitution, and that the gallant array of noblemen of the cloth are pushing the work to a fruitful consummation, to the honor of its creators and to the credit of the entire race. We should evolve ourselves into a race of "heroes worshipers," we should not permit the memories of our noble one to die and be buried with their bodies, we should hold aloft their good deeds that they may be seen and known to the rising youth, who must, if they make good as benefactors, emulate the examples of those who have done well. Lloyd, Este, Williams, Blackman and Desverny, must die for they are human. Shall they, when they are dead, be "good and dead," will the management of Charity Hospital refrain from, even a mention of their names? Will the memory of Rev. R. Bright and others who have done conspicious service for the institution be lost amid its more brilliant and signal progress in the yet too be? For an answer, the future is dependent upon the action of the present. If the present leaves not upon the tablet of memory, the record of the past, the future will follow the neglectful lead, and thus leave out of success the essence—the leven, that lightens labor and at the same time creates and injects racial ambition and aspiration. The memory of T. James Davis should ever be alive in connection with Charity Hospital, and since Sunday, the 8th, inst marked the 5th year of his demise, it would have been fitting that a eulogy of his life and connection with the aforesaid institution, been delivered as a means of perpetuating his memory and calling attention to the fact, that he was, truly, a public benefactory.

Devaughn of Jacksonville was in the city last week in interest of the Children Insurance Company of Philadelphia. Lecture aud Concert at the Beach Institute. Before a select audience of colored people from all denominations, Rev. J. A. Dahlent gave a most interesting and instructive lecture about the colored people in New York. For nearly an hour he kept the audience in rapt attention by giving a clear and sympathetic exposition of the religious, social and industrial conditions of the colored people in the north. The Rev. Lecturer, commenting an article of THE TRIBUNE under the heading of the "World" Record, gave an account of the admirable work performed by the colored in the line of education in the last 50 years, an account which was a surprising revelation to many. Lectures like that are certainly a treat, and should be given more frequently for the literary benefit and the intellectual advancement of the people. Not less enjoyable was the concert given before and after the lecture. Some of the best talent of the city had kindly volunteered to appear on the occasion. The entertainment was opened with selection from the Apollo Orchestra, that played the "Northern Light Overture." The Orchestra needs no praise of ours, it is too well-known; suffice to say that it was at its best and was enthusiastically applauded. A sweet sold' was rendered by Miss Agnes Proctor, who sang the touching little peace called "My Rosary." "When dreams came true" a well-known song, was given by Mr. Charles Siegling with his usual strong and pleasing voice. Miss Rosa Jones, the favorite singer, gained the applause of the audience when she sang the imposing "Ave Maria," and she appeared again with Mr. Marion Johnson in a delightful duet, beginning with the words "That's what, the rose said to me." But nothing was more warmly appreciated and more wildly applauded than "The Imperial quartette under the direction of N. N. Cuyler with his three young men Messrs Johnson, Giles and Hooker; the audience was literally taken away with that quartette and an encore was enthusiastically for. The Orchestra rendered two other selections namely: the "Dolores Waltz" and "Powhatan's Daughter March," and the program was brought to a close. It was certainly a most delightful evening. The artists had distinguished themselves, and they had deserved the gratitude of the audience and of St. Benedict's Church, to whose benefit they had all generously given their services. To show its appreciation and gratitude, the church gave a delightful social entertainment to the artists on Tuesday evening. Mrs. S. Cuyler and Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Dowse, prominent members of St. Benedict's Church most cordially entertained at their residence 516 East Park Avenue, all those who had taken part in the program. The supper table was beautifully decorated; the guests did honor to the copious supper served by Mr. and Mrs. Dowse, Mrs. S. Cuyler and Mrs. N. Cuyler. Every one present made a short speech in which cordiality and humor were delicately mingled. As Mr. F. L. Curly, one of the speakers, so well remarked, the entertainment and the social gathering brought home a great lesson to all; namely: a greater union amongst the members of the different denominations in any work of charity. "Why should not, (as the speaker said.) our talents meet together sometimes, and be always ready to give their services to evety good work for the benefit of the people." This is a remark which the writer of these lines cannot but strongly endorse. The priests of St. Benedict's Church are deeply grateful to all those who have taken part in the West Broad and Gwinnett Sts.

After the rendition of this excellent program, the Ministerial Union and friends of Dr. and Mrs. R. H. Singleton assembled in the parsonage where delicious refreshments were served. After many expressions of love and esteem were spoken and parting words given all departed to their homes carrying pleasant memories and best wishes for Dr. and Mrs. Singleton. Second Baptist Church.

If you want to witness the old fashion prayer meeting like those our mothers and grandmothers used to attend we invite you to call at our church on Tuesday nights and Sunday mornings On Thursday night Nov. 5th,*Rev. Wright, the deacons and members attended M. Zion Church where Rev. Wright preached. He read for the lesson St. John 21:1-18. He called on deacon Cyrus Robinson to offer prayer. The prayer was just what you might have expected from a soldier who has been in the army forty-two years. Rev. Wright took his text from St. John 21:15. The subject was "Peter's Back Sliding." No one who heard the sermon would dare say that they were not benefited especially when he drew the lesson about Peter's backsliding and denying Christ. Even though Peter had committed an awful crime our Lord rebuke and restored him, giving him the same place he had always occupied. Our chair with Mr. Geo. W. Heyward as christier and D. E. Dennis as organist rendered excellent music On Sunday afternoon, Rev. Wright with his deacons and members communed with the Second Baptist Church where, by request he christened Rev. May's baby. After praying he said that "he did not believe in praying for any one and going off without putting something in their hands and therefore I present the baby this small sum of money tobegin in its little life" kev. May very gracefully thanked him and said that if he a raided a dozen children in Savannah, Rev Wright should pray for all of them. On Sunday night Rev Wright read for the lesson John 3.18 His text was taken from Num. 21:6. Our Lord chose Moses to lead the children to the Promised Land. Moses told God that he stammered in speaking and was afraid that he would not be successful, the Lord told Moses that he would send his brother Aaron to speak for him. They traveled for a long time when they became dissatisfied with Moses and began grumbling and complaining. Our Lord seet five serpents into their camps to sting them. The only way that they could be healed was to have some one suck the poison out and then look up at the brazen serpent which the Lord had commanded Moses to place in the wilderness for their healing. Complaining and grumbling is a weakness God punished the children of Israel and He will punish us. Satan is our fiery serpent and the cross our remedy. Some men do not appreciate a good woman until they have gone out into the world and receive a good thrashing, then they are willing to return home and acknowledge it. Some women do not appreciate a good man until they have gone out and received a thrashing from the cold world, just so with the Israelites they would not do as God commanded until they had been permitted to wander in the wilderness forty years in sight of the Promised Land then they were willing to obey and look to the brazen serpent and be healed. We must look to Calvary. If you are a Christian we invite you to come down and enjoy our service, and if you are a sinner we invite you to come down and let us direct you to Calvary where you will find balm in Gilead to heal a sick soul.

According to the program mapped out by the Ministers Evangelical Union, Rev. E H Quo was sent to St. Philip on Sunday morning to preach at 11 o'clock. As usual there was a large congregation out. After the choir and congregation had sung hymn $331 "Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free." Rev. Quo's text was Poil 4:5. His discourse was one that was of vital importance to the members of St. Phillip Church, not only to St Philip but of every church and to all christians allike. The words that fell from the speaker's lips were as an artist brush upon the canvass. The words spoken fell upon the conscience of every christian and he or she was made to ask themselves the question "am I guilty of these things or am I amaze!" At 8:30 p.m. Rev. A.C. Hamilton, preached after the choir and congregation sung hymn 172. "Sinners turn why would ye die!" His subject was the "enchanted ground" Rev. Hamilton spoke at length on this subject. Being a young minister his discourse was one of interest. On last Tuesday the members of St. Philip were out in force, three hundred members in attendance, three new members added to the church and nineteen dollars and sixty cents collected. We must admit that the Biographical Electric entertainment given by Mr. Johnson Rooks on Thursday night of last week was the best ever given at St. Phillip.

The seies of meetings, conducted by the Rev. W. L. Jones, D.D. of Atlanta, Ga., which began on Tuesday evening of last week at the First African Baptist Church, Franklin Square, stamped an indefable impression on the hearts of the people who came out in numbers to hear him Many a hearts have been made no rejoice and many a doubtful chasms bridged through the instrumentality of his profound and heart to heart talk, especially at this deceive moment in the affairs of the church His sermons on last Sunday reached the zenith of expectations, and was remarked by all his hearers as being two of the most powerful sermons ever heard At the 11 o'clock services his text was "Willa man leave the snow of Lebanon, which cometh from a rock of the field or shall the cold flowing waters that come from another place be forsaken?"! At the evening services text "Thou tellest my wonderings, put thou my tear thy bottles are they not in thy book?" His subject: "The wandering of man" The officers and members of the church have expressed much gratitude to the Rev. W. L. Jones for accepting the invitation extended him, to conduct the past series of meetings and also extend many thanks to the church which he pastors in Atlanta for granting him the leave of absence, to assist them in their hour of need. Closing in a year and nearly three months of struggling; without a pastor suffering afflictions of a broken rank, inflicted by the monster death, with but a margin of reinforcement, yet inspired and strengthen by Devine hands in the furtherance of the church's interest. the Board of Deacons, after having painfully surveying the fields of Baptist Ministers, will on tomorrow Sunday, between the hour of 4 and 5 o'clock make known their choice through a recommendation, to a membership of nearly five thousand to be their leader. It is generally thought that a Georgia minister will be offered. Many anxious hearts are waiting to recieve the man whom God will direct the officey to recommend, while some have their personal choice even to this moment yet it is expected that Devine direction will prevail, and with one voice a pastor will be called. The day will be spent in fasting and praying from the early morning prayer meeting to the hour set foe the calling. Much interest is being manefected by the Baptists throughout this and other states, in the behalf of the church making a wise selection; as the historical record of the church together with other qualities, places it as one of beacon lights in the denomination, whose rank have been kept up under the successful pastorate during the past 120 years, of Revs. Andrew Marshall, Andrew Bryant, Wm. Campbell, Geo. Gibbons, Emanuel K. Love, J. W. Carr. Rev. J. Williams, D. D. of Brunswick, Ga., one of the old fathers, and friend to the church was down here during the week and impart some valuable advice to the church. His interest for the welfare of the church has always been fatherly, his advice wholesome and his presence felt. Monday will be the regular monthly conference All the members who have not registered as yet will do so as promptly as possible. The clerk have reported good results from the census taken, and hope to have better results at the close of the year when the annual report of the church must be made. It is earnestly asked that every member be present on tomorrow to take part in in the selection of their leader, Special Notice.

Amount of Food For Horses. 3 Two pounds of feed for each 100 Pounds of live weight is the require- ment of the work horse. Of this ten to elshteen pounds, according to the severity of the labor performed, should he grain. The heavy feeding should come at night, after the long day's work Is over,—Farmers’ Home Journal,” . Old Refore Their Time. A horse can carry on his back, a distance of twenty miles a day on a well made road, without exertion, from 250 ta 300 pounds; but if he is pushed to twenty-five or thirty miles a day with that load he will be utter- ly exhausted, and if constantly over- tasked, will soon become decrepit and utterly worthless. This tact {llus- trates why so many farmers are old! before their time. They don’t ad when to stop work, constantly over- tax themselves and early in life be-' come physical wrecks.—Epitomist, | f Silos, It does not matter what material the silo is made of; it must be alr- tight on sides and at bottom. Any crack or knot-hole or poor joint at the door will admit air, and the silage will rot just in proportion to the amount of alr that enters. The re- ceptacle must be strong enough to withstand the lateral pressure of the ‘silage when it settles. This lateral Pressure at ten feet from the top Is 110 pounds per square foot; at twen- ty feet, 229 pounds; at thirty feet, 320 pounds, and at forty feet, 440 pounds. It Is very difficuit to make deep rectangular silos whose walls will not spring enough to allow afr to clreulate up and down the sides and cause losses, The depth. of the silo should be made as great as prac- teal, because, frst, in this way the largest Saount of food per cuble foot of space may ba stored; second, the silage Keeps beter because, pacied 80 solid, and third, there Is less rela- tive loss at the surface. The top of the silage always spoils to a depth of two to eight inches. No silo should de less than twenty-five fect deep. 4A silo twenty by forty will hold twice #3 much as one twenty by twenty-five, and one thirty-six feet deep will hold five times as much as one twelve feet deep.—American Cultivator. en ed os 2 Cure For Lice in Poultry. Build a dust bathhouse, with glass in the east, yest and south sides, to Jet in plenty of sunshine. Put < Wooden ventilator four feet wide -aerosa the north elde of the building. -Make a cement flodr and let the ce- ment extend up both sides and ends ‘twelve inches. Now get the finest gtade of tobacco dust and place on ‘the cement floor to a depth of eight or ten inches. The building must not let in any wind or rain. The tobacco ‘dust may be had at one and one- fourth cents per pound of 300 pouads ‘F over. Not one farmer in 10,000 has poultry free from lice, an¢ it cer- tainly is a pity to let the faithful hens toil on, furnishing the table with meat and eggs, while being most eru- ally tortured both day and night. This is nature's method and in my opinion the only effective way to rid poultry of lice.—C. A. Neal. Mr. Neat’s plan is for an airtight room with cement floor and sides, so ‘as to keep the tobacco dust perfectly dry and to provent the wind from Diowing st about. This would cer- tatnly destroy the lice upon the bodies of all hens that might dust them- selves in the tobacco dust. If the dust gets into the eyes, throat or nos- trils of the fowls, it will cause irrita- tion and inflammation as well. Very fine road dust passed through a very Bne sieve, so as to have it as fine al- most as flour, will answer the same purpose and do quite as well as the tobacco dust.—McG., in The Feather. : Raising Horseradish. — he horseradish crop has returned large profits for the few people who have made a specialty of it fn a jim- ited way. It is not a very hard crop to grow: the difficulty is to find a market for any large quantity. Many of the people who grow it are also manutacturers who grate the roots and become their own traveling’sales- men, securing orders for the grated and prepared product put_up in tubs er bottles. There is a constant de- mand for the.roots in.Bostén aanrkft but only for a very limited quantily, and any great Increase in the supply would bring the prices too low fer profit. Plantings are started by setting pieces of root, taking the side shoots from near the crown. They are set about twelve Inches apart In rows the same as beets or cabbages. Some- times they are planted along with heets, whic aro gathered by the time the horseradish needs all the space. The crop should be grown on rich garden soll in order to make large, smooth roots without prongs. The crop {s very productive, ylelding at the rate of $200 worth per acre at usual wholésale prices. Ozly atyery little is grown in the velnity QfZBoston, anti only im very small eae seems to have been able to find a large enough mar ket to warrant large plantings. — - ‘The slips for setting are sold at ebout $4 per thousand, They aro all zathered,when the roots are dug inf October, ‘and buried in the sand over winter, being ready to set about the middle of April.—American Cul- ‘tivator. z : Practical Poultry Ponts. in starting @ new poultry yard one important item {s to plant a few trees that will furntsh shade fn later years, ‘They will also furnish a good deal of fruit Jf well selected.

Three items commonly neglected are shap grit, enough green féod and plenty of meat food. After a few years a poultry yard becomes bare of good grit material as well as of green food and the fowls need more atten- tlon in these particulars than at first, The meat part of the ration fs doled out by some people as if it were a kind of medicine instead of food. The best way is to keep meat scraps on hand all the time In a meat hopper, allowing: the birds to eat all they care for. It is a rather expensive part of the food, but returns more growth and eggs for the money expended than auy othervone item. It is hope- less to try to get much of an egg rec- ord, especially in fall and winter, without feeding plenty of meat and ‘milk. 28 Remove drooping or ailing fowls,as soon as noticed.

For myself, I like two kinds or types of horses on the farm, one of the draft class and one somewhat lighter, say from 1100 to 1200 pounds. The draft horses should weigh from 1400 to 1600 pounds up, and will do any heavy work that may offer on the farm. Some farmers drive these horses on the road also, but as for me, I prefer the lighter welghts for driving, as the drart class are too slow and road work 1s too-hard for them. | * No place ts better fitted for hand- ling and developing high class horses than the average farm. Apparently all that is lacking fs a love for good horses. In nearly every locality there are found stallfons of excellent breed- ing. What we are most 1a need of $s good selection of mares to begin with in the grading up process. With our present low class of material it {s going to demand the most careful se~ lection in order to make: advance- ment. My mares welgh between 1400 and 1600 pounds, and are about half Percheron. Some people think that @ mare cannot work and raise a good colt. My experience has beon that they can if proverly handled. As soon as the mare foals I turn her to pasture for the rest of the’ season, | having plenty of other horsés to carry | on the work. But no farmer need | hesitate in breeding because he ha¢ no horses to, work. I have seen raised | some of the best colts from mares that worked every day, with the ex- ception of two or three days following foaling. When the mare is about to foal it can be foretold by the dropping of the belly, sinking of the flanks and enlargement of the udder. Place her | in a large stall with good bedding, and if sheisin good condition she will need no further assistance. While in foal the mare does not necessarily re- quire food different in quality from that fed at other times, but the quan- tity should be somewhat carger, all | conditions being equal, Those used | for breeding purposes only will do. well Without grain when on nutritious | pasture, but If the grass is insufficient | some additioual feed in shape of grain | should be glven. Working mares are more sure of bringing good foals than those idle In’ pasuire and feeding. They should be worked with regularity, the labor never being severe or taxing, nor should the nature of the work ever be | such as to make long intervals be- tween feeds. As to the kind of feed for the mare in foal. Oats lead, yet shorts and bran may be fed with econ- omy and beneficial results. Mdshos can be given.occasionally, and where possible carrots and small potatoes may be supplied two or three times a veek. “ — It tg important to feed tle mare. well enough to insure a maximum flow of milk for the pail; yet st {3 {m- | portant that the-foal be kept growing to bis Mmlt by the feeding of séme supplemetary ratiod if uecessary. The second winter will need about six quarts of oats daily and about oho pound of hay per hundred pounds of the colt’s live weight. My colts re- quire nine to ten pounds per day at this age. “At three years, oolts' from ordinary 1400 to 1600 pound mares und a good big horse will usually sell at from $250 to $200, or even $250. So it can easily be seen that there ‘will be money 1n colts even if the price of horses ‘goes down.—J. P. Fletcher, in The Cultivator.

We draw a Jong face and tell our neighbors how careful we are, doing without this thing or that. Our horses are fed on cornfodder with a few ears of corn, the barn has gone unpalated, the old fence has had to be propped up for another year, and so on through a Jong st of short-sighted oconomies Last summer the writer was talking to Colonel Fox, of the Forest, Fish and Game Commission, about his trip to Europe, and of the sights that impressed im the most. He sald that for the first time in his life hé had seen real far-sighted economy. While traveling In Switzerland he had noticed the strange-looking sheds, shown in the photograph,and on further inquiry found that the peasants saved all tho raanure for fuel, drying it, in little moulds shaped like flower pots, on shelves under the eaves of the bullding. At one end all the twigs and stripping from the trees’ that were cut for lumber, were stacked, while in the centre of the buildiig was piled the lumber Itself; nota thing was wasted. The result of such thrifty economy Is that those people make a lving from land we should consider only fit for goats to browse on. Of course there is no need for us to prac- tice such rigid economy, but that we cailld save a vast deal for ourselves and our children by husbanding our natural resources and keeping ev- erything up in thorough repair there can be no doubt.—A Farmer, in Tha Country Gentleman.

We are told that in 1907-1908 ‘not half as many imml- grants arrived at this port as In 1906- 1907, while more ‘went abroad than came hither. It 1s not to be sup- posed that such conditions will long continue, and that emigration will permanently exceed immigration. There Is a’ pretty general agreement that last year’s conditions were due to the financial disturbances and bus!- ness depression which prevailed here for a time, and perhaps to the fear that they’ would grow worse untll the country was struggling: with a genuine and protracted period of “hard times,” and there 1s a reason- able expectation that with the restora- tion of the full tide of business pros- perity here the tide of immigration will again rise toward the flood.— New York World. ~ Yisitors in London.

ANTS THAT GROW MUSHROOMS. Insects Make Excellent Gardeners In South America. Professor J. R, Ainsworth Dayls sixes latest proofs of the ant’s right to our applause.

These they take to! thelr nests. The material ts used as an elaborate sort of mushroom culture, requiring much more shill and Intelligence than that In which human bdelngs engage.

The desired spawn soon makes {te appearance in the chewed leaf, But in its natural state ft {8 inedible,’ and must undergo careful treatment before it yields the mushroom which the ant desires. The necessary work 1s done by a special caste if gardenc? ants. These weed out obsoxious germs, etc, and prun- ing off the tips of the threads, pro- vent them from growing into the air and producing useless tozdstools. As a result of this the-threads swell 4nto innumerable little rounded white thickenings; each of which is about cnefittieth of an Inch across. It is these which are the mushrooms. ‘These curious bodies constitate the sole food of the ant—or, at any rate, the ebief food.

AN ELOQUENT SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV. MERLE A. BREED. Theme: Realizing the Pattern. Lincoln, Neb.—The Rev. Merle A. Breed, who recently entered upon the fifth year of his pastorate of the Congregational Church at Monticello, Iowa, occupied the pulpit of the First Congregational Church of this city Sulyday morning. He spoke from Hebrews 8:5: "See, saul he, that thou make all things according to the pattern that was shewed thee in the mount," taking the subject, "The Pattern in the Mount, the Building on the Plain." Mr. Breed said in the course of his sermon: Our text, which is a quotation from Exodus 25:40, sets before us a picture as interesting as it is suggestive. The hosts of Israel have been waiting long before-Mount Sinai. Their leader, Moses, is hidden in the cloud-capped, fire-riven summit, in communion with Jehovah. While the people are waiting in the plain, he has gone forth to the mountain's towering peak to be with God, to hear His will for them and for himself, and to bring down a divine pattern of a tabernacle for God's worship and the uplifting of men's hearts and lives to heavenly things. The people in general had but earthly ambitions. While Moses was hidden in the clouds and darkness of the mount, they were occupied with_daning and feasting, with eating and drinking, and making golden calves to worship. Moses is beholding the pattern of that tabernacle about which the religious life of the nation was to arise, and which was to stamp its impress upon the world. Moses is filling his soul with the vision which he is to endeavor to realize among the rude, ignorant, superstitious, half-wild Israelites in the plain beneath him. To one man came the vision of heavenly things. The rest were to receive it through him. His life work was to be that of bringing this within their reach and making it real to them. The vision splendid came to him on the heights. The details, measurements, gathering of materials, labor of construction, were all to be wrought out on the levels of common life upon the plain. We may easily imagine that the children of Israel and the roving tribes about them greatly admired the completed tabernacle, with its curtains of blue, purple and scarlet, with its ark and altar, its candlestick and cherubim, its pillars and table, its canopies and courts, its holy place and holy of holies, its laver, mercy-seat and mysterious separating vail. But there was one who had seen something better, who knew that, beautiful and costly as it was, the tent of meeting but dimly shadowed forth the glory of that pattern shown him in the mount. The people saw only the tabernacle in the plain, but the eyes of Moscs looked beyond and through that and saw the pattern he had beheld in the mount with God. And that is our thought together this morning, the pattern in the mount, the building in the plain, for life still has its Sinals, where we behold ideals, and it has its plain, where these are to be realized. Surely he is a sorry builder who has seen no pattern in the mount. For the success of our building, much will depend upon our choice of a pattern. The costliest building is manhood and womanhood, that something we call self, a life, character. Yet there is much haphazard building. With the greatest variety of plans there is an infinite variety of results, because the pattern is not selected with the care an architect draws his designs upon his trestle board. What shall we build our lives—hovel, or palace, or temple? It is an exhilarating reflection that every act or thought is building them into something. What an infinite variety of patterns. We can not build after them all—which shall we choose? There must be unity in the design. The eclectic method, pure and simple, will hardly avail for this. What one age approved falls to win the approbation of the next. There must be permanence and real worth in the pattern, if it is to satisfy ourselves or others as the years pass. As we read history and the great names of past eras move before us, we often feel how transient they were. How like a hovel is Midas, the Phrygian king of legend and story. How like a moldering trreme upon the shores of time is Pompey the Great. How like a dust covered ruin in the Roman forum is Caesar. Now we may all be tabernacle builders, like Moses, if we will. For this method Moses followed is not to be thought of by us as exceptional. It is a type for us each in our building. We, too, are building, "building every day, building for eternity," and our Scripture lesson told us that our building must stand God's test. We have like opportunities with the great Jewish lawgiver. If he had eyes to see God, and ears to hear God, so have we. Will we choose the tabehcain-pattern for our lives? "Every human soul," wrote Hartford's greatest divine, "has a complete and perfect plan, cherished for it in the heart of God—a divine biography marked out, which it enters into life to live. This life, rightly unfolded, will be a complete and beautiful whole, an experience led on by God, and unfolded by His secret nurture, great in its conception, great in the divine skill by which it is shaped; above all, great in the momentous and glorious issues it prepares. Life may for purposes, no doubt, but do they satisfy? Is not life insipid, unsatisfying, lost, till it is all wrought out a temple, a dwelling place for God most high? Here some will say, "But my life is cast on other levels. It deals with common things, with the doing of momentous acts and routine service. What opportunity can there be for me to achieve such large or worthy results? If conditions were different, or my calling other than it is, all this might be of interest to me. I long to put just this into my living, but it is all too remote from life as I have to live it." Here lies the value of the scene before us. Through Moses the humbled of the people became part- ners with him in building the tabernacle. Moses did not rear it upon the cloud-enclosed mount, but in the plain, that you and I might be encouraged to realize the purpose of God for us in the field of common daily relations and amd what will otherwise be the drudgery of daily living. He leaves us the same task. Merchant and teacher, sailor and soldier, farmer and workman; author and editor, housewife and clerk, mistress and maid, lawyer and preacher, however humble and obscure our lives seem, we are to be fellow workmen with God in bringing things divine into these seemingly common and unmeaning activities and relations. After the clouds and glory had withdrawn from Sinai, the humbliest Israelite could point to the tabernacle and say: "The glory of God still follows us all through eur wilderness wandering in that tabernacle yonder, and without it we would never have complete." Your life, where it is, is needed for the rearing of something greater and better than the tabernacle in the world of to-day, and without it the kingdom of God will never come in its fullness. Before this all other needs of our time sink into insignificance; for the truest tenure for the showing forth of God is not of a pattern hidden in the majesty of applaurable heights, nor is it temple or cathedral, helpful as these may be, but a life simple outwardly, though with luxurant and divine furnishings within; a life spent on the levels where our fellow men live theirs, filled not with such consecrated furnishings as adorned the tabernacle Moses fashioned, but with the graces and kindly deeds men need to see and feel near at hand. This is our work, as divinely appointed to us as it was to Moses. It is the greater building, in which all our common tasks and humblest efforts may have an honored place as truly as did the altar and laver in the ancient tabernacle. But for this successful building of our lives into God's purpose we, too, must seek our pattern in the mount. God Himself builds according to plan. Even a casual glance at His wonderful world this morning will disclose that. Purpose and plan are everywhere. Not one grain of sand is a law unto itself. Not one flower blooms, or withers, unbidden. Not one leaf drops before its time. Not a bird note is unrelated; its music is born from present conditions and wakes its own echo. All things fall into their place and carry out the divine purpose. This is the method of the divine building, whether in nature or in human lives. And it may be so in your life and mine. We may know God's purpose for us and follow it as truly as the grain of sand, the flower, the bird of the air. "If any man willeth to do His will," said the Master, "he shall know." God does not withhold His plan from any man. The mount is ever ready for the revealing of the pattern, but men must take the time to learn, to withdraw to its retreat. The pattern came not to Moses till he had twice spent forty days and forty nights in the mount alone with God. After many years' tuition in the wilderness came John the Baptist, herald of Christ. The wilderness was his mount of vision. Handel had a spiritual ear, and gave the world the oratorio of the Messiah, and when we bear it we must not forget the long period of preparation. Michael Angelo had the spiritual eye and hand and painted the frescoes of the Pauline Chapel with the representations of the martyrdom of St. Peter and the conversion of St. Paul, and carved the statues of, "David" and "Moses." If Paul spent three years in Arabia to meditate upon the vision he had of the Christ, that was met him on his way to Damascus; if Christ Himself retired to solitary places for quiet and prayer, you and I need time for such a disclosure of God's will for us as He is waiting to give. for we can rightly rear the tabernacle we must seek the pattern in the mount, not Sinai, but the heaven-reaching life of Christ. The divine pattern has come near men in Jesus Christ. We have not to seek it amid the perils, darkness and difficulties of Sinai; it is here with us, built in all its divine perfection on the levels of our daily needs; supplying us with all desirable inspirations, helps and satisfying fellowship, opening the very vall by which we enter into the most holy place itself. It is not a mount distant and removed, but a presence near at hand, familiar with our needs, to which we may withdraw in moments of discouragement or temptation, full of divine comfort and solace for the hours of sorrow, full of divine strength and vitality in our days of weakness when all other help seems far away, full of gracious warning when we are careless and wayward. We need ever to be withdrawing into this mount, Jesus Christ, if we are to realize the pattern in the plain of our earthly living. Because it is so accessible, so complete in its ministry. "See, therefore, that thou make all things according to the pattern that was shewed thee in the mount." Why? Is there not something minutely pathetic in the continual going back of one generation after another to the old, sad mystery of pain? There is, I suppose, says the Rev. George Jackson, nothing new to be said about it; there is no fresh light to be cast upon it; yet still men wait and watch with hope, still the poor brain bushes itself and the torn heart cries aloud, "My God, my God, why—?" Other questions we answer, or they answer themselves, or we are content that old women or old men should this question is always with us. And, indeed, how should it be otherwise, since on every man, soon or late, the dark mystery thrusts itself? "Man that is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble." The words are very old, they are never obsolete, the generations come and go, but sorrow and pain and death abide. The Reason.

ROAD CONGRESS CALLED Governor Smith Invite's All Comcial and Agricultural Bodies. LEADING EXPERTS TO ATTEND Governors of the Southeastern States Have Been Asked to Send Competent Persons to Represent Their States. Atlanta, Ga.—Governor Smith has issued an official call for the Southeastern road congress, which will be held in Atlanta on December 2d and 3d. In it he has impressed the importance of the subject to be discussed and has invited federal, state, county and municipal bodies and commercial and agricultural organizations to send delegates. In addition to this, Governor Smith will write personal letters to the governors of the southeastern states, asking that they have their states represented, by competent persons at the congress. The official call, issued by Governor Smith follows: "Atlanta, Ga., November 7, 1908. "In view of the imperative necessity for the improvement of public roads, and at the request of a joint committee representing the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, the county of Fulton and the city of Atlanta, I hereby call a good roads congress to meet in Atlanta on December 2d and 3d, for the purpose of discussing the subject and taking appropriate action thereon.

"HOKE SMITH. Governor." MANY PARDONS GRANTED. Governor Smith Approves Recommendations Made By Prison Commission. Atlanta, Ga.-The governor has signed the following pardons and commutations: Offie Parker, convicted in August, 1907, of assault with criminal intent in Walton county, and sentenced for ten years. Was 17 years old at the time he was sentenced. Ed Teasley, convicted in September, 1898, in Elbert county, of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to twenty years. Commuted to present service. John Nathan, convicted in March, 1908, in Morgan county of murder and sentenced to death. Commuted to life imprisonment.

Methvin has just returned to the department of agriculture from a visit to Macon, where he condemned 12,500 bushels of mixed oats which were being sold as a stock feed, on the grounds that the oats contained ingredients that were worthless and did not come up to the standard required under the pure food law of Georgia. These oats were put up in five bushel sacks and sold at from 62 1-2 cents to 75 cents'a bushel. The sacks did not show the worthless ingredients they contained. Mr. Methvlin says the packages contained mixtures of all kinds of stuff, including what screenings, elevator cleanings, salvage oats and sour stuffs. Three carloads of oats he had shipped out of the state and would not allow to be sold at all. The rest he required to be plainly marked on the outside of the packages just what each package contained, so that the purchaser would not think he was getting 'other than that which he did. It is just such seizures as these that are raising the value of feed stuffs in Georgia and making cotton seed meal and cotton seed hulls, recognized as the best feed stuff on the market, all the more appreciated. This last named cattle feed is being more generally used now than ever, for it measures un more exactly to the requirements of the pure food law than any other food on the market. NEW PRISON COMMISSIONER. Captain Wiley Williams of Muscogee Took, Oath of Office. Atanta, Ga.-Captain Wiley Williams of Muscogee has taken the oath of office as a member of the prison commission. Thomas Eason, the retiring commissioner, was present. Mr. Eason, becomes a private citizen for the first time in thirty-four years. He has been a member of the prison commission for ten years. He served two years in the legislature, and was before that solicitor general of the Ocoee circuit for twenty years: THROUGHOUT THE STATE The state department of entomology, after four years of experiment, has succeeded in producing a hybrid type of cotton which resists the ravages of the black root fungus, generally recognized as the worst of all cotton pests, with the exception of the boll weevil which is not known in Georgia. It has taken long and expensive series of experiments to produce this resistant type, but this important work has at last been accomplished, and the department announces that it has a limited amount of the seed on hand. Samples of the seed will be sent to representative farmers throughout the state, their names being necessarily limited on account of the recent farmers' institutes that have been held in various sections. Information of an experiment about to be made in raising sea island cotton in California was contained in a letter received by Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson from Robert H. Harris of Holtville, Cal. Mr. Harhis stated that an association has been organized for the purpose and that about seven thousand acres of land will be planted in Egyptian cotton of the Texas variety. He expresses the opinion that the cotton raising experiment in California will prove a great success. According to a list compiled by Secretary Goodloe Yancey of the prison commission, between sixty-five and seventy counties have applied for convicts under the new law to the number approximately of one thousand eight hundred. The counties which have already sent in requisitions for convicts number only about half of those in the state, and do not include Fulton and many of the larger counties. From present indications the 2,500 felony convicts of the state will all be employed upon the public roads of the various counties and there will be no "overs" to dispose of. Postoffice appointments for Georgia: Fish, Polk county, William O. Hamrick, vice W. J. Lawson, resigned. Junction City, Talbot county, Mattle E. Blythe, vice S. A. Montgomrey, resigned. The membership of the commission to investigate the advisability and feasibility of extending the Westera and Atlantic railroad to the sea with the aid of convict labor, was completed by the appointment by Governor Smith of Honorable Paul Trammel of Dalton, and Honorable W. H. Burwell of Hancock. The governor had formerly appointed Honorable J. R. Gray of Atlanta, and George Dole Wadley of Monroe county, as members of the commission. As announced at the time of the passage of the bill, President J. L. Flynt appointed Senators J. D. Howard of Baldwin, and C. W. Brantley of Laurens, as members of the commission. Speaker John M. Slaton named Messrs. Hooper Alexander of DeKalb, Joe Hill of Bibb, and H. J. Fulbright of Burke, as members of the commission. The citizens of Wadly voted almost unanimously to grant to R. L. Perkins the right to operate electric lights and waterworks there. Mr. Perkins is the lessee of the Wadley Yellow Pine Company's plant at this place, and THIRD.

That New England Conscience plate a thesis upon which he was writing. Of course it was wrong to transgress any of the college rules, and equally, of course, he should have been punished. But to take him off the crew to the despair of the boy himself and to the apparent upheaval of the 'Varsity crew! Does any intelligent person suppose President Elliot would have visited such punishment upon a rift at not occupying so prominent a place in university athletics. It was a sillily weighty sentence to pronounce upon a really small offense, and would never have been made but for the obvious publicity of its every maneuver inimical to college sport. Whether the student remained on the crew or off the crew or was punished, or whether Harvard won or lost the race through his being on or off the crew, is, from the viewpoint, of college life and purpose, of little moment. We may deprecate the thirst for notoriety in so learned a doctor, and be amused at the teapot temptest, and be not a bit disturbed, had it all ended there. But out flares President Elliot in a letter publicly branding these two young men as dishonest and crooked. Now that is the serious side of this otherwise farcal temptest in a teapot. If President Elliot wished to so denominate these two young men to his faculty members, that would perhaps be about bad enough; but it would still be a private opinion privately expressed. But to publish it in the newspapers! The element which I am sure will lead to complexity in the minds of many worthy citizens is whether it is more culpable to take a textbook which nobody wants, out of the library with the laudable intention of studying—or to give to the public press a private letter together with a denunciation of two young men in a manner suitable only to men-roost thieving.

We may not say by what marvelous means the transformation was effected, but certain it is the Newport of today is very different from the Newport of a generation ago. Croesus does not build his house just like his neighbors only a little bigger, but commands the services of the ablest architects, who have transformed Newport from a city of commonplace cottages to one of rare architectural distinction. If Croesus lacks the taste to furnish his house becomingly, he has the sense to hire a decorator to do it for him—although in a larger measure than we realize, this is unnecessary—for Croesus has, in these later days, abandoned fast horses and Nashy waistcoats, and has learned to buy pictures and books for himself—and he enjoys them too, which is even a greater matter. He does not always spend his money wisely—that were asking too much in a single generation; he still makes too great a show of his money, leading humble folk to imagine that there is some magic pleasure in the more possession of vast wealth. He will overdo things occasionally—or at least Mrs. Croesus will, as when once she built a temporary ball-room next to her stately summer home, at a cost—so the newspaper said—of some forty thousand dollars, and tore it down after a single evening's entertainment. Mrs. Croesus will spend vast sums of money to no rational purpose, and so give the socialists a deal to talk about, beside creating the impression that her husband's wealth was not inherited; but on the whole she has made tremendous progress since she was a school-girl—The Atlantic.

People who have been watching the incoming shipments of liquor during the past, several weeks says that there has been a marked decrease in the Macon business. A sub-station, operated a long time by the express people on Fourth street, in that city, has been discontinued and the regular business is done from the main office. No reason is assigned for the decrease, but it is generally believed that the scarcity of ready cash is the cause. T Mr. W. A. DuPre, a prominent business man of Marietta, has on exhibition a fine specimen of an American eagle that measures eight and a half feet from tip to tip. This eagle was killed by four school boys who were out hunting near Marietta. The eagle came down and was making an effort to capture the bird dog of the school boys and all the boys immediately opened fire and after shooting four or five times each, finally succeeded in killing the eagle. This is a fine specimen and is one of the few eagles that hae been seen in Cobb county for a long time and is the only one that has been killed in the county. Savannah has developed what is thought to be a brand new swindle. It is nothing more nor less than the collection of city taxes on personal property from new comers to the city. The scheme seems to be to watch the columns of the daily newspapers to see where new arrivals live and to then present themselves as city tax collectors who want to collect money for personal property. The scheme has worked very well in one or two instances and it is not known how many unreported cases there are. Mayor Tiedeman will make an effort to have these petty crooks run down Stockholders of the former Bank of Waycross have announced that the reorganization and re-opening of the bank was now practically assured. Several have canceled their stock and subscribed to the new stock. Colonel W. M. Toomer and Colonel L. A. Wilson were authorized to appoint a committee of five to confer with leading bankers in Atlanta, Savannah and Jacksonville in the formulation of a plan for the re-organization to be submitted at a meeting in Waycross December 5. T W. R. McCants of Winder, Ga., has been named by Governor Smith as a trustee of the North Georgia Agricultural college at Dahlonega. Mr. McCants is a well-known business man of Jackson county. His appointment is for six years for October 1, 1908. An incident of interest to the medical and scientific world occurred at Eatonton when, grave diggers, in digging the grave of Major William A. Crawford, unearthed the corpse of an infant brother of the deceased perfectly preserved after sixty-two years' interment. The grave was opened by headstones being misplaced and the grave diggers struck the glass plate covering the metallic casket with such force that it was dislocated and the features of the corpse revealed. The facial and physical features were remarkably preserved, even the teeth and hair, with the exception of being very dark. The headstone bore the name Flournoy Gatewood.
