The PRESIDENT TAFT PLANS TRIP Itinerary of Chief Executive's Swing Around the Country. IS A 13,000 MILE JOURNEY Many Southern and Western Points Are Included in Schedule Announced By the President. Washington, D. C.-Off for his summer home at Beverly, Mass., President Taft left Washington. He will not return to Washington until the middle of November next. Remaining at Beverly with his family until September 15, he will start west that day on a tour that will embrace all but eight or ten of the states of the union and both of the territories in the far southwest. Various members of the cabinet will visit Beverly during the summer. The president also expects to have several of the cabinet officers with him at different times during his long journey through the west and south. Secretary of War Dickinson, for instance, probably will be with the president during practically all of the southern end of the tour. Before his departure, the president made public a tentative outline of his trip through the west and south this fall. It will be a wide swing around practically the entire United States, embracing a journey approximating 13,000 miles—as long as the cruise of the battleship fleet from Hampton Roads, through the Straits of Magellan to San Francisco bay. The trip will be one of the most notable ever made by a president. It will be as diverse as could well be imagined, and no "Seeing-all-America" tour could be devised to embrace as many points of interest in so brief a space of time as President Taft will give to his jaunt to the Pacific coast and back through the great states, of the south. During his tour the president will traverse the royal gorge of the Rocky Mountains, will visit the Alaska-Yukon exposition at Seattle, will spend three days in the famed Yosemite valley, will stop off at the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and follow the trail down into the depths of that giant abyss, will greet the president of Mexico on the international bridge over the Mississippi river, will take four days' sallower the Mississippi river, from St. Louis to New Orleans, with various stops on route, and will spend four days on the ranch of his brother, Charles r. Taft, near Corpus Christi, Texas. Starting from the rugged shores of the north coast of Massachusetts, the president goes direct west from Beverly. He will motor into Boston the morning of September 15—his fifty-second birthday—and there board the car which practically will be a roving white house for two months. The president has accepted practically all the invitations that could be crowded into the sixty days set aside for the trip, and his acceptance book is closed. Naturally will be many five and six stops not included in the regular list of stops, but with little car-end speeches, but the town as now announcer is to all intents and purposes complete. President Taft will spend two days, September 30 and October 1, "doing" the Alaskan-Yukon exposition. Visiting Houston the foremost of Saturday, October 23, the president proceeds to Dallas that afternoon to spend Saturday evening and all of Sunday. From Dallas, the president proceeds direct to St. Louis to begin his four days' trip down that historic waterway. He reaches St. Louis at 7:27 a.m. the morning of Monday, October 25, and will leave at 4 p. m. on the steamer assigned to him by the Deep Waterway Association, which is to hold its convention in New Orleans upon the president's arrival there. Followed by a visit to the spectacular fittilla river craft, one of the trailing boats will be assigned to the thirty governors of states who have accepted invitations to make the trip down the river and to attend the convention. Another boat will be assigned to a congressional delegation of more than one hundred members. The first stop on the river will be at Cairo, ill., at 8:30 a. m., Tuesday, October 25. The second stop will be at Hickman, Ky., at 2:30 p. m., the president making brief addresses at both places. Arriving off Memphis, Tenn., at 8 a. m., Wednesday, October 27, the president will make an address at 9 a. m., and that afternoon at 5 o'clock will speak at Helena, Ark. On Thursday, the 28th, at 2:30 p. m., the president will make a speech at Vicksburg. New Orleans will be reached about 4 o'clock Friday afternoon. The river journey also will include short stops at Cape Girardeau, Mo., and Natchez, Traders' and Truckers' Bank of Nor- folk, Va. Closes Ita Doors. Norfolk, Va. — The Traders and Truckers' Bank, doing a large banking business here among uptown merchants and country truckers, closed its announcement that, owing to its inability to realize upon its paper the institution had been forced into liquidation. President Gordon attributes the failure to unwise loans made during the Jamestown Exposition period and the ability to realize sufficiently intact demands since. The bank officials say that the deposits amount to less than $80,000 and that depositors will be paid in full. VOL. XXIV. EXPOSITION BROKE BANK Miss. The president will remain in New Orleans from Friday afternoon, the 29th, to Monday morning, November 1. He will address the waterways convention October 30, at 2:30 p. m. From New Orleans the president goes to Jackson, Miss., spending practically the entire day of November 1 there. He will spend three hours of the following day at Columbus, Miss., and will arrive at Birmingham, Ala., that evening at 7:45 o'clock. The president will remain in Birmingham until the afternoon of Wednesday, October 16, he proceeds to Macon Ga., arriving there early the morning of the 4th. After spending the forenoon of the 4th at Macon, the president proceeds to Savannah to spend the evening of the 4th and half of the next day. Charleston, S. C. is on next the list for a stop, the evening of November 5. From Charleston, the president proceeds Saturday morning, November 6, to Augusta, where he will spend Saturday afternoon and Sunday. The president wants to have another game of golf on the links where he spent so much time last fall as president-elect, and to renew many of the pleasant acquaintances he made in Augusta. Columbia, S. C., will be visited the afternoon of November 8, and Wilmington, N. C., will claim the president for the entire day of the 9th. The president will spend twelve hours in Richmond, Va., from 5 a. m. to 5 p. m., and will return to Washington at 8:35 o'clock the night of November 10th. The president leaves Washington again, probably on the 11th, for Middletown, Conn., to attend the installation of the new president of Wesleyan University. He also has engagements at Norfolk and Hampton, Va., Novem- ber 11, and at Boston, Mass., not to be done until the morning of November 21, when he reaches Washington for the winter, and to put the finishing touches on his annual message. PHILIPPINE TOBAGCO GUARANTEED. Government Will Inspect the Weed as to Quality and Cleanliness. Washington, D. C.-Purchasers of Philippine tobacco will bereafter have a government guarantee of its quality and cleanliness as a result of an arrangement made by the bureau of insular affairs, with the Philippine government, designed to insure the strict enforcement of the new tariff bill providing for the admission into the United States, free of duty, of a limited quantity of cigars and tobacco produced in the islands. All tobacco factories in the archipelago are to be placed under the strict observation of the islands in regard to revenue bureau and health department, so as to make certain that the tobacco used is of native growth, or if any of the foreign productions manufactured, that the quantity may be definitely ascertained. The intervention of the health officials is to assure the public that the manufactured tobacco will be made in sanitary factories by healthy operatives. Every package of Philippine tobacco or cigars imported into the United States which has undergone the inspection provided for, accordingly will be labeled. Furthermore, the Philippine government will attach to each package of tobacco or cigars a certificate indicating the quality of the material used and the class of workmanship. RESERVATION OPENED. Rush for Homes in Coeur d'Alene, - Idaho, Section. Couer d'Alene, Idaho.—Swarming around a great net-covered cage, hundreds of eager men and women watched diminutive Helen Hamilton plunge her hands into great heap of 105,000 yellow envelopes and draw out the name of the lucky man who had won the right to the first choice of all the 500 housestead tables claims on the Couer d'Alene Indian reservation. The simplest method had been chosen for the great drawing. Helen Hamilton, 12 years old, was bluinfolded and placed in front of the mass of letter. Picking up an envelope at random, she handed it to Miss Bernice M. Grifle of DesMoines, a member of Superintendent Witten's staff. The paper was handed to Superintendent Witten, who promptly announced the name of the lucky applicant, Isadore Sellg, Myrtle Creek, Oregon. Men from Washington state drew the next three choices. Cut Off His Own Arm. Springfield, Mass. — Lying face downward in a pool of blood, Alvin Niles was discovered in a strip of woods with his left arm hacked off just below his elbow. Later he said he had cut off the man himself because he was blinded. He said he been unable to obtain work because the arm was useless, prospective employers turning him away when they saw it. Alabama Woman Murdered. Florence, Ala.-The body of Lola Rose, a white woman, was found under a pile of hay, with a large cord wrapped around her throat twice very tight and tied in a hard knot. Prentice Johnson is under arrest charged with the crime. A roll of money is missing. Killed By Foul Tln. Cinchnalli, Ohio.—Word was received here of the death of William Balley Altman, a traveling salesman of this city, while attending a ball game at Moorehead, Ky. A foul tip hit him on the chest, and he died shortly afterward. Savannah Tribune. THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 14, 1909. LATE NEWS NOTES. The names of more than three hundred supervisors of the thirteenth census to be appointed by President Taft will be made public soon by the president. In the southern states, where it is proposed to divide the appointments as nearly equal as possible between democrats and republicans, the appointments probably will be delayed, as recommendations have not been received and the division has not yet been made. At Cincinnati, while on his way to the Chautauqua meeting at Kankakee, Ill., W. J. Bryan denied a persistent report to the effect that he was about to transfer his legal residence from Nebraska to Texas. The legislature of Alabama has passed almost without opposition the bill to ratify the income tax constitutional amendment proposed by congress. The house voted it unanimously, and the senate folowed suit. The steamer Janie, in command of Captain Samuel W. Bartlett, sailed from St. John, N. F., for Etah, on the northern frontier of Greenland, laden with supplies for Lieut. Robert E. Peary, which will enable the explorer to spend another winter is the far north if necessary to demonstrate his plans for reaching the pole. The death of an 18-year-old girl in Cincinnati, after an operation for what was supposed to be appendicitis, has attracted general, attention because of the unanimous opinion of the attending doctors that her death was caused by the wearing of tight corsecs and dresses in the height of the style. The victims of fashion was Miss Elsie Gasser. That their lives were saved by a cat is the belief of Arthur Hanan, Joseph Burnett and others, who escaped from their apartments in the Avenue flats which were destroyed by fire in Waco, Texas. The cat jumped upon the bed and scratched and purred until it awoke Hanan, who aroused the others. Hanan was almost surfaced when the cat finally succeeded in awakenling him. Joe Burnfin, aged thirty, of Chaska, Tenn., was shot and killed by Branden McMahon, thirty-five years of age, McMahon, in a playful mood, knocked, off Burnfin's hat. Angered at this Burnfin attacked McMahon with a stick of wood, knocking him down. While lying on the ground McMahon drew his revolver and fired three shots. One bullet took effect, striking Burnfin near the heart, killing him instantly. McMahon surrendered. William A. Rublee of Milwaukee, the relifting American consul general in Vienna, Austria, who was operated on last month for stomach trouble, has left the sanitarium cured. Mr. Rublee will stay in Vienna for a few weeks so as to fully regain his strength before proceeding for Hong Kong, where he has been appointed American consul. The Southern Soft-Yarn Spinners' association, which assembled in Asheville, N. C., in called meeting, gave out a partial statement of the results accomplished. The statement is very meagre and about the only thing indicated by it is the fact that there is to be a material curtailment in the output of soft yarns within the next month. Washington The three soldiers at Fort Omaha who were inoculated with the new typhoid serum have been pronounced immune by the garrison doctors. The men developed the fever in a mild form in seves days. When fully recovered from this they were vaccinated again, but no typhoid symptoms appeared. Then they drank freely from water into which millions of the typhoid germs had been placed, but so far with no evil results. Secretary MacVeagh of the treasury department said that no determination had been reached as to the time of the issuance or amount of the 3 per cent one-year certificates referred to in announcement by the treasury department recently. The issuance of the certificates will depend entirely upon the receipts of the treasury from customs, internal revenue and miscellaneous sources. No more of the certificates will be issued than may be necessary to maintain a comfortable cash balance in the treasury. Dr. Harvey W. Willey, chief chemist of the agricultural department and guardian of the pure food laws, has started a crusade against embalmed cucumbers and ghernins inoculated with alum. He asserts that withered and half-spoiled cucumbers are given generous hypodermics of alum and under its magic influence the once soft, soggy and generally disreputable pickle of commerce is plumped out, jeopardized and even so can plunge to the bottom of the few persons who resist its alluring attractiveness. Although the board of food and drug inspection has had the question of the use of alum as a preservative under consideration for several weeks, no decision has yet been given out. Postmaster General Hitchcock has appointed Jesse L. Suter, Washington correspondent of the Nashville Tennessee, as a member of his confidential staff in the postoffice department. Mr. Suter is a well known Washington newspaper man and was connected with the publicity bureau of the republican national committee during the last national campaign. Robert Bacon, who was assistant secretary-of state under the former President Roosevelt, and whose home is in New York, will be appointed by President Tatt ambassador to France during the coming fall, and relieving Ambassador Henry White, who has been ambassador to France, the late president William McKinley and former President Roosevelt. STEAMSHIP IS DISABLED Clyde Liner Arapahoe in Trouble Off North Carolina Coast. FLASHED "C. Q. D." SIGNAL The Ship Broke a Tail Shaft Off Diamond Shoals and Drifted Helplessly for Many Hours. Beaufort, N. C.—The steamship Arpaheo of the Clyde line, for Jacksonville and Savannah, from New York, broke her tail shaft and reported by wireless at this station that she was drifting helplessly. The ship at the time that she slipped her "C. Q. D.' was 21 miles southwest of Diamond Shoals light ship. The wind was strong from the hortheast and drifted the ship in shore. She was heavily loaded and had quite a number of passengers on board. The revenue cutter at Willingham, N. C., or Norfolk, was notified, as were tugboats along the coast, and many of them went out to find the disabled ship and render aid. Despite the strong northeast wind, the sea was moderate. Wireless reports that the steamer Huron of the Clyde line arrived to aid the Arapahoe. The Huron stood by and took the Arapahoe in town, and thus saved a large salvage bill. CUBA UN ROCKY SHOALS. Gomez' Administration Totters and an Early, Grisla, Is. Feared. Early Crisis is Pearled. Washington, D. C.-Reliable information received here is that serious political conditions prevail in Cuba, and that henceforth President Gomez is going to have a pretty hard time steering his ship of state. Recently the entire Cuban cabinet resigned. A new cabinet has been organized, but, according to the latest information, there will be still more changes. News has recently reached Washington of an effort to sell to the government certain lands adjoining Camp Columbia, a few miles outside of Havana, where the Cuban regular army is established. Involved is this attempted sale, which almost went through, was a colossal piece of graft. The land is needed for the establishment of a target range and a general enlargement of Camp Columbia. The piece of land changed hands some months ago, possibly a year, or two ago for $145,800. It is understood that the owners are willing to sell for this price, but when the transfer was made to the government—the deal got as far as that—the price was $445,800, an advance of $300,000. The sale was made by authority of a presidential decree, which did not specify prices, but merely authorized the purchase. Before the government had paid out the real cash, however, the graft was discovered and the scheme wrecked. MAN AND WIFE EIGHT DUEL Woman is Dead and Husband Fatally Shot Chicago, Ill.—After locking their two children in a bed room and fastening the doors of their flat so that the neighbors could not enter in a hurry, Antonio Spizzirri and his wife, Anna, went into their darkened parlor, and tried to kill each other. The woman was shot twice and stabbed twice with a stiletto, and died before the police got there. The husband was shot twice also and probably will die. A revolver and a knife were found near the sofa where the woman lay dead, and another revolver was found behind the husband. The scene gave mute testimony of a terrible duel. Spizzirri turned on his side when the police finally broke into the room with a large sledge hammer and tore a letter, which was on the floor by his side, into bits before he could be stopped. This letter was in Italian, and will be translated to solve the mystery. It is thought that Spizzirri was jealous of his wife. CORN FIELDS BURN. Severest Drought in Years Prevails in Virginia. Winchester, Va.—The great cornfields of northern Virginia are burning up. The severest drought of years is prevailing, and for more than six weeks little, if any, rain has fallen in the Sheaquah and Page valleys. Streams are lower than for years and many are dry. The corn crop will be almost a total failure, while all growing crops are cut short. Should the drought prevail much longer the apple crop, with grapes growing, will obviously affected. Thousands of dollars have already been lost to the farmers, and each day the loss increases. The railroads are seriously troubled, hay fields being set on fire by passing locomotives and valuable property menaced. ASKED RANSOM FOR RAILROAD. Man Threatened to Destroy Pennsylvania R. R. Unless Given $45,000. Philadelphia, Pa.—"This is a declaration of war. My life is openly staked on the result, for I am prepared to meet yup. I am time and place may name. The weapon I shall use and dynamite and other high explosives." Thus wrote Abram C. Eby, mayor and referee in bankruptcy of Burkeville, Va. to the "President of the Pennsylvania Railroad, Philadelphia," on July 23, naming $45,000, as the ransome for the safety on the railroad and the traveling public and otherwise threatening the Pennsylvania Railroad. He was arrested. WASTE OF RESOURCES. National Irrigation Congress Denounces Government Policy. Spokane, Wash.—"The government of the United States is sitting idly by while millions of dollars' worth of natural resources are going to waste. "The Appalachian forestry bill which passed the house and senate twice was killed by Uncle Joe. "Notwithstanding the dispensary system in South Carolina, there is too much water there." E. J. Watson, commission of the South Carolina department of agriculture, commerce and industry, before the national irrigation congress, uttered the foregoing with telling effect. He urged that the government take control of such rivers, east and west, as might be navigable for the purpose of making them waterways for smaller battleships. President George Barstow made his annual address. The new constitution providing a business-like basis for the congress was adopted. A clash between the natural resources preservation policies of the Roosevelt administration and so-called "private interests" got its first impetus when Mayor N. S. Spratt of Spokane charged that private capital is being used to impede the work of the government. President Taft's telegram expressing sympathy with the work was received. BLONDE PEOPLE HANDICAPPED. New York Doctors Says American Climate Does Not Agree With Them. mate Does Not Agree With Them. New York City.—A startling warning to blue-eyed, light-complexioned New Yorkers is uttered by Dr. Clas. E. Woodruff, surgeon and major in the United States Army, who has just completed a private tour of the prisons and asylums of the city and state. The jails and institutions, he says, stand for prisoners, who unable stand the struggle for existence in a climate to which they are unfit, have fallen into poverty, disease and crime. What is true of New York, he says, is true of the country as a whole and, unless the blincde American finds or adopts some better means of survival than she has at present she will be wiped out as a type in favor of the brunette. The great trouble is the sunshine. There is too much of it in America for blondes, says Dr. Woodruff. It breaks down their nervous system, renders them unstable morally as well as physically and makes them peculiarly liable to the ravages of consumption and other deadly ailments. WHIPPING POST FOR WIFE BEATERS. New York Judge Says He'll Head a Movement for the Post. New York City.—In passing judgment on a man charged with having blackened his wife's eyes, Police Magistrate House declared in court: "What this state needs is a whipping post for wife-beaters, and I am willing to head a movement to establish it. We also need something for the wives who are beaten. From ten to fifty badly whipped wives come here daily for warrants for their husbands, and when the brutes are arraigned the women need for forgiveness the women face to prosecute, and all I can do is to turn them loose. If we had a whipping post with a cat-o'-nine-tails attachment, I think we could discourage the wife-beating habit." Newsv Paragraphs. The Porte has sent Greece an urgent note asking that Greece express and emphasize strong disapproval of the agitation in Crete for annexation to Greece and to make public the announcement that Greece has no ambition regarding the island. Unless some such action be taken within a few days the Turkish minister will leave Athens and all diplomatic relations will be severed. George S. Weever of Mongmery, Ala., tendered his resignation as secretary of the Commercial club of Montgomery to take up work in connection with the "King Kotton Karnival" project which he launched a meeting in Atlanta, recently of the Southern Secretaries of Commercial clubs. Mr. Weever came to Montgomery six months ago from Chicago to succeed G. Grosvenor Dawle who was elected managing director of the Southern Commercial congress in Washington. The work of piercing the Andes mountains with a tunnel on the new railroad now building from Arica, Chile, to LaPaz, Bolivia, is progressing rapidly and it is now believed that trains will be able to pass through by the first of next year. The tunnel, which will be five miles long, will be the highest in the world, piercing the Andes twelve thousand feet above sea level. Seven hundred men are employed day and night on the work and American methods and machinery are being used. Herman, son of John Lynch, aged 17, was drowned at Steamer Ferry landing, Alabama, in the Cosa river. The boy deliberately drove his horse into the river as the ferry boat approached, less than forty feet away. It is thought the boy was asleep. He had been to singing school with a lady friend. His sixteenth successful flight with the Curtiss aeroplane was made at Mineola, N. Y., by C. Foster Willard. Flying close to the ground, Mr. Willard essayed to make a circle about a mile and a half in circumference, but was not able to complete the circuit owing to elevations of the ground and trees, for which he had not calculated. He made five long, curve flights, however, at high speed. Stands in Statuary Hall in the Capitol at Washington. BEAUTIFUL WORK OF ART Virginia Also Places a Bronze Statue of Washington in the Hall Washington, D. C.—Bronze statutes of George Washington and Robert E. Lee, Virginia's contribution to the nation's "Hall of Fame," were placed in statuary hall at the capitol. Formal ceremonies attending the unveiling will take place at some time yet to be determined. Both statues are beautiful works of art. Lee is pictured in the uniform of the south, and his statue stands between those of Robert Fulton, inventor of the steamboat, and J. L. M. Curry of Alabama. Near the statue of these are those of George Washington, Shields of Illinois, and Philip Kemeny of New Jersey, in the uniforms of the union army. The Lee statue was designed by Edward V. Valentine of Richmond, Va. Washington's statue was placed in the southeast end of the hall, between the statues of General Ethan Allen of Vermont and General Peter Muhlenberg of Pennsylvania, a distinguished soldier and statesman of revolutionary times, and a brother of the first speaker of the house of representatives. The Washington statue is a replica of Houdon's famous masterpiece now at the capitol in Richmond, Elliot Woods, superintendent of the capitol, said that formal acceptance of the two statues is not required, although presentation of the statues may be formally made with elaborate ceremonies at the instance of the Virginia statue commission, and with the permission of congress. JANE ADDAMS FOR PRESIDENT. Boston Will Be Starting Point of the Unique Campaign Boston, Mass.—"Jane Addams of Chicago, future president of the United States," will be the slogan before many months have passed, according to the advocates of equal suffrage. Boston has been chosen as the starting point of the startling and novel campaign by which the women hope to gain prestige, if not actually a president. When William Dean Howell confessed in his characteristic fashion that he "had no doubt whatever that our nation keep cool that we can be happy," the office of our national housekeepers" he little thought that already the suffragettes were preparing to elevate a woman to the highest office in the nation's rift. WORKMAN WANT BEER. Employees at the Gary Steel Plant Object to Prohibition. Chicago, Ill.—Workmen at the Gary Ind.; steel plant, declare that beer is a necessity and that unless they be allowed to purchase what they need in Gary they will go, where the beverage may be had. Since the closing of the "blind pigz", which were running in defiance of law, which provides that there shall be no saloons until next spring, there has been much dissatisfaction among the workmen. Scores of the men have left town and gone, to work in South Chicago and other cities in the Calumet steel belt, where, the liquid is yet to be had. HEAT KILLING INFANTS. Intense Heat of the Metropolis Is Slaughtering the Innocents. New York City.-Infant lives are going out by scores under the heat and humidity. Seldom since the day after the General Slocum was burned has the morgue at the Bellevue dock held so many tiny bodies as one night this week, when forty lay there, 27 sent from the New York foundling asylum and the others from various hospitals and other institutions. Coney Island, whose hot sands were unewept by the light westerly breeze, added three to the heat's toll of babyhood. ELEPHANTS ON BAMPAGE. Eleven Runaway Elephants Terrorize Kansas Town. Clay Center, Kans.—The people here were terrorized by eleven elephants which escaped from a show and stamped through the streets. The trouble started when a small dog bit the heels of one of the elephants. The beast at once began to trumpet and run away, then the elephants followed. Before the elephants were finally captured a showman was knocked from a horse and seriously hurt. During the excitement the people of the town kept off the streets. IN SEARCH OF SOUTH POLE Captain Webster Starts for New York to Prepare for Trip. Los Angeles, Cal.-Captain Rowland V. Webster, who was appointed by the Royal Geographical Society to lead an expedition in search of the south pole; left here for New York, when he will embark for London-to prepare for an Antarctic trip, which will begin next August. Notification of the appointment as leader of the projected expedition came to Captain Webster just as she reached San Francisco on his twenty-fifth journey around the world. Captain Webster earned the hie- thership in the Navy, and it also served in the Boeing The Guaranty Aid and Relief Society Treasury of State of Georgia Ellicott JAN 17 1808 190 The undesignated Treasurer of the State of Georgia, hereby acknowledges to have received from the following described Exhibit, to which: Dear Regimented Brassier of the Army of the Elkton, Georgia (Troop of Georgia Brassier) 1710; commander, took from Dixhill (George, June 1920) being in total Two Thousand Dollars, and which are held by the State of Georgia, by authority and under the provisions of an Act of the General Assembly, approved October 22d, 1887, and amended December 20th, 1897.

Deeper study of the subject might reveal that they are possessed of the criminal instincts, but that the tragically close example of the punishment and wretchednes that attend a criminal career has been a terrifying deterrent. The fact, at any rate, remains. The "Rogues' Galleries of Scotland Yard, New York City, and Chicago may be studied in vain for the photographs of a father and a All the hours in heaven are said to be bright—let us make bright as many hours as Fate allows us. Are Tubercle Bacilli Friends, Not Foes? T is about time, as it seems to me, for us to restore the people to their wits, from which the bacteriologists and germ theorists have frightened them by means of scare tales concerning the alleged danger from "germs." When soldiers go into battle it is manifestly important for them to know friends from foes. Instances have been known in which squads of the same army, in the dark or in the smoke of battle, have fired into each other, causing a bloody sacrifice and at risk even of utter rout by the enemy. That the same sort of thing may occur—that it has, in fact, occurred—in war against disease is susceptible of proof; and I would cite the experience of three eminent physicians, after quoting the remarks of Professor Jacobi that "it may be possible that we can learn how to poison and exterminate the so-called germs, but in so doing we may kill the patient!" The experience of Drs. Babl. Perron and Gimeno (Lancet, April 30, 1893) is of great significance in bearing out Professor Jacobi's dictum: "When dealing with tuberculosis of the lungs, the microscope having revealed the presence of the Koch bacillus, but the patient is without fever, night sweats, or yellowish green sputa, the results from experiments with serum from donkeys were somewhat amazing as well as disastrous. Treated with the serum, their general health seemed to improve (poison stimulation, says the present writer), and the number of Koch bacilli decreased in notable proportions. In two cases the last sputa examined showed that the bacilli had entirely disappeared; but with the disappearance of the specific bacillus of tuberculosis hectic fever set in, and one patient died in eight days and the other in ten, with the symptoms of septic poisoning." N my opinion it is adding insult to injury for women to be told, as by Bishop Doane, that they have "elbowed" their way into the industrial world, and by obtaining work have deprived men of it. As truly might it be said that the 400 unfortunate Englishmen and women elbowed their way into the Black Hole at Calcutta. They were driven in; and the little girls (for statistics show that 92 percent of female workers start before attaining the age of 16) are equally driven from home and school into industrial and commercial life. Far from being able to protect and support their females, men have unmistakably shown that they cannot protect themselves. They have allowed themselves to be robbed and despoiled of everything beyond a mere living. The report of the United States Bureau of Labor shows that the average wage of adult male labor during 1907 (the latest figures available) was $10.98 per week. No one who realizes how small is the purchasing power of this sum in the human necessities of shelter, food, and clothing can reasonably deny my contention that the average man has shown himself unable to protect himself as head of a family. He is therefore compelled to drive his children out of the earliest possible moment to make their own meagre living. And the worst of the whole matter is he is satisfied with himself. In realizing that he is economically (and spiritually, too) "poor and unable and naked" he is puffed up with a sense of his importance which he refuses to share with his women- 60L. C.

It can be made from one material throughout, or it can be made from some simple lawn and faced to form vnbqi n chemisette or a yoke or in any way that may be liked, so lessening the quantity of fancy material needed. This one includes sleeves of three sorts and can be faced for full length LAMBERT at the centre front and back or to form a shallow or a deep yoke, and it can be made high with a collar, or collarless, or with round or a square Dutch neck, so that it really fulfils every requirement. Long plain sleeves are fashionable, and are much liked when found becoming, but moderately full sleeves in both three-quarter and full length are having equal vogue, and any of the three which may be liked can be used. The guipme is made with fronts and backs. There is a casing arranged over the waist line in which tapes are inserted to regulate the size. The long sleeves are in one piece each, fitted by means of darts. The full sleeves are gathered into bands whichever length is used. When the high neck is desired the regulation stock finishes the edge. The quantity of material required for the medium size (eight years) is one and three-quarter yards twenty-one or twenty-four, one and three-eighth yards thirty-two-or one and one-eighth yards forty-four inches wide. Collarless necks and elbow sleeves appear together. An Old Fashion Adopted. Many black watered ribbon sautiers and muff chains are to be found ornamented with the pretty diamond-dusted empire or other links. The initial idea was born years ago in this country. It was taken up by the Persian jeweler. Flaids For Children. Pretty plaids of modest size, bordered with plain color, are among the new goods designed for children. The divided skirt has been pronounced the proper style for the woman aviator. The skirt that is made to give a panel effect is one of the very latest. This one is snug fitting over the hips, while it provides abundant flare about the feet, and it consequently is graceful and attractive in the extreme. In the illustration it is made of linen and is trimmed with a simple banding, but the panels allow of treatment of various sorts. Heavy lace insertion or appliqué could be used as a finish or bands of the material braided or embroidered. The model is just as available for the thin batistes, lawns and the like as it is for the heavier linens, ponges and wool fabrics, and consequently is a generally useful and satisfactory one. The skirt is cut in eight gores, and there are pleated portions joined to the front, side and back gores, which are cut off to form the panels. The closing is made invisibly at the left of the back. The quantity of material required J1A for the medium size is eight yards; twenty-four, five and a half yards; thirty-two or four and three-quarter; yards fifty-two inches wide, with seven yards of banding. en yards of building. Fluttings of linen, edges with narrow line attached, to each side of the front pleat and to both edges of the wide cuffs appear on some of the newest and smartest of linens blouses. The futtings are not too wide to stand put crisply. Silk Coats Some of the loveliest of the coats are made of the lighter silks, of crepe cashmere de soie and such like. ALL READY FOR THE "BARN DANCE." —Cartoon by W. A. Rogers, in the New York Herald. PROSPERITY HERE IN ALL LINES Steel and Iron Industries, Cotton and Woolen Manufactures Railroad Transportation, European Imports, Commerce on Lakesand Other Lines All Show Unmistakable Trend of Development---Three States. Will Get $165,000,000 More For Wheat Crop Than Last Year. Washington, D. C.—Telegrams from the manufacturing and agricultural centres of the United States clearly show that before autumn is far advanced "good times" will rule everywhere. The proofs of this are found in the present activity or preparations for immediate increases in such basic industries, as steel and iron, cotton and woolen manufactures, railroad transportation, European imports and commerce on the great lakes. Some of these industries, like woolen and cotton, are already doing unprecedented business. Orders are now being refused for next winter and spring deliveries, and higher price lists are in preparation. The panic of 1007 is already ancient history. The last lingering effects of it will, it is predicted, disappear in this fall's awakening of trade. New England Cotton Mills Spending $2,500,000. Providence, R. I.—Rhode Island's cotton mill owners have in course of erection or planned for the year new plants, additions, renovations and storerooms involving an outlay of fully $2,500,000, more than half of which has been expended in the last seven months. And there have been no labor troubles, nor is there any on the horizon, according to Colonel R. H. I. Goddard, head of the famous Lonsdale Company, which has expended fully $300,000 this year. tries, shows the amount to be as follows: Steel and allied companies... $200,000,000 Blast and furnace companies... 30,000,000 Equipment companies... 25,000,000 Electric companies... 30,000,000 Locomotive companies... 25,000,000 Total... $410,000,000 The bituminous coal trade, another barometer of general manufacturing business, is increasing. In line with the activity in the steel and iron trades, the woolen manufac- Just seventeen new mills have been built or proposed in Rhode Island. The Independent Cotton Manufacturing Company, of Manyille, plans a $200,000 cotton mill; the Seminole Manufacturing Company, Pawtucket, is making an outlay of $100,000; the Lorraine Manufacturing Company will have an addition to cost $1,500,000 and give employment to 2500 operatives. More than forty-five new woolen mills have been constructed or proposed. New York City.—With the railroad plans in sight for the raising of $165,000,000 to $170,000,000; most of which is to be expended on improvements and new construction, the steel companies contracting for the expenditure, of almost $100,000,000 on new plants; and with unfilled orders amounting to more than $110,000,000 already on the books of a few of the leading companies in the principal industries; the outlay of cash in this country in the next twelve months is expected by trade experts to be the largest ever known in our domestic trade. So far as the railroads are concerned, stock market authorities predict that before the year is out new securities will be placed on sale that will bring the total for the twelve months up to the enormous sum of $1,100,000,000, and probably $1,250,000,000, thus verifying James J. Hill's prophecy that in good times this country needs a billion dollars a year fresh capital for new construction and improvements. Four Companies to Spend $74,000,000 A canvass by reporters of the steel and iron corporations showed that a total to be spent by four of them alone for new construction in the next twelve months, amounted to $74,000,000. In detail the figures are as follows: United States Steel Corp- poration.....$50,000,000 Jones & Laughlin.....15,000,000 Bethlehem Steel Company.....3,000,000 Republic Steel and Iron Company.....6,000,000 Heavy expenditures are also templated by the Pennsylvania Steel Company, the Maryland Steel Company, the Inland Steel Company, the Colonial Steel Company, the Southern Steel Company and the Shewell Coal and Iron Company.....12,000,000 That these expenditures are warranted is proved by the unfulfilled orders on the books. A computation in these from the records of a few训 ing concerns. In the different indus Tenn Grove Cumpers Hear About Good Old Days in York, Pa.—Abides for the old, fash- oned church was made by Rev. M. McKendall, of Cumberland, O. O. The Bible service at the Tenn Grove Assembly in contrasting the church of today with the church of St. Paul. The speaker deplored the introduc- tion of opera singers into the choir and the preference given the wealthy in the selection of officers in many churches.

In line with the activity in the steel and iron trades, the woolen-manufacturers also are getting busy. Notwithstanding the fact that the price of raw material in their line is higher to-day than it has been for twenty years, the mills are stocking up for a demand that they expect to be exceptional. Reports from the Boston market show that in one week the manufacturers bought more than 15,000,000 pounds of wool, and that all the companies are installing new and improving old machinery. Minneapolis, Minn. — Estimates made by wheat experts of the promised yield of the States of Minnesota and North and South Dakota, the three greatest wheat States, place this year's crop at 225,000,000 bushels, worth $300,000,000 at current prices, or $165,000,000 more than last year's yield. Fewer Idle Freight Cars Throughout the Country. Chicago. — The fortnightly report of the American Railway Association on car surpluses and shortages shows a further decrease in idle cars, bringing the total down to 260,227. Of this reduction 2536 are box and 1000 coal and gondola cars. Woolen Trust So Busy It Declines' Orders. Boston—the $5,000,000 new preferred stock of the American Woolen Trust authorized by the stockholders on July 17, has substantially all been taken by stockholders, at par. Important new construction and extension work on the rull will be begun at the beginning of the year, expect a business of $70,000,000 next year, the largest in the history of the company. Orders are being declined for future delivery at current prices. Washington, D. C.—Lake trafic figures indicate improvement in the business situation as compared with conditions a year ago. The domestic shipments from lake ports, of the leading "classes of commodities," were 101,793,633 net tons last month, compared with 71,427,646 net, tons in 1908, and 10,690,632 net, tons shipped in 1907. The domestic shipments for the current season, to the end of June, 19,838,552 net tons, were about sixty-five per cent. in excess of the domestic shipments for the corresponding period of 1908, but this year's total still falls much below the 1907 figures. All the cities on the great lakes report business at flood tide. Oklahoma Trustsurer Deposits State's money in Kansas Bank, 'Guthrie; Oka.' In spite of the advan- tages supposed to be derived, from the Oklahoma bank guaranty law and the efforts of the State administration to strengthen the law in all its work- ings, it has developed from an official report made by the State examiner and inspector, Mr. Taylor, that $110- 260 of the State's money has been placed by James Meneffe, the State, trekker's, in "A Kansas City bank, where it does not receive the protec- tion of that law. GOOD ROADS. Probably the most serious economical question at present is that of the public highways, meaning the roads used by vehicles self-propelled or drawn by horses. The Department of Agriculture is considering it thoroughly, by an extensive investigation of conditions, causes and effects; the engineering societies have committees at work, and every municipal government is discussing and experimenting with the subject. Out of all this there will be results, of course, but they will come slowly and the cost and the labor will be enormous, just to get at the facts. Certain truths are ascertained. A railroad must have a smooth roadbed, of solid construction, with rails or of weight adapted to the size of the engines and cars; it must have, similar construction at all points, and its grades must be limited, to the length of trains, or the train length reduced or engine-power increased. A trolley road must be adapted to the size and weight of the car, in the same proportionate way, or the roadbed will suffer, or the cars will be destroyed. It is less a question of comfort or convenience in either case than one of getting the best results for your money. You can not run a five-thousand-dollar trolley car over a rough track without destroying the car, hurting the poor roadbed, and ruining the better tracks. The cheapest investment for any railroad is a good track. The same truths apply to the ordinary highways, but here conditions vary. There is a well-established mathematical ration between a locomotive with a, freight train and the track which carries the burden. But a public highway has to accommodate many vehicles of different kinds and the burden is not upon two tracks, but upon a wide surface, unequally used. The consequence is that the highway problem is much more difficult than that of a railroad of trolley. The worst feature of the highway construction question is that the character of the vehicles using it changes constantly and has changed frequently for many years. The burden can never be exactly estimated, so the back to bear it can not be precisely adjusted. A horse and a cart with metal tires need one kind of road; widen the tires and another kind will serve; put rubber on the tires and sharpen the horse's shoes; and a smooth road is necessary; use the highway for an automobile and there should be smoothness without dust. Put each of these requirements in a single highway, and there is perfect achievement, and that is what remains to be accomplished. Every art is needed for this vast task—the engineer's, the contractor's, the chemist's, the publicist's, the science and mechanical skill and cash are all requisites. And above all, preliminary study. The work is going on and experiments are constantly being made, but it will be a long and weary task. Let it be understood as a problem to be solved, something yet to be attained, and much will be gained. Heretofore, the discussion has been too much on the basis of "having known it all." It is a great unanswered question; but time, labor, science and money will make the reply soon. If opportunity be given by a public able to recognize the vast importance of the issue at stake. Newark Call. "Sawdust roads are proving a success in our State," said A. H. Gibson, of Jacksonville. "They have been trying it in one county, and the road has more than one point in its favor. Two ridges of earth are thrown with by a road machine at the required width, and the space between them is filled to a depth of six inches with sawdust. Then a small machine comes, along and plows up some of the clay, and mixes it with the sawdust. This makes a road on which the tires of the heaviest vehicles make no impression. "The contractor kept close account and the road cost $297 a mile," the sawdust did not have to be hauled a great distance. Some have questioned the durability of this form of road, but there are sawdust roads in Georgia that are over twenty years old, and in good condition to-day. The repairing of these roads is a very simple matter, in case of holes." The very simplest way of getting rid of a wart is by a single application of the X-rays. The wart does not fall on during the actual application, but within a week or ten days afterward it simply drops on, leaving smooth and healthy skin behind it. The time occupied by each sitting is something between fifteen and thirty minutes, and no dressings or other applications are required. The procedure gives a minimum amount of trouble to the patient, a maximum of certainty of immediate cure, and no scarring. One kind of wart which is particularly annoying to its possessor is that which grows upon the scalp. These warts may appear in people who are quite grown up or even past middle life. It is as easily cured by an application of the X-rays as are the warts upon juvenile kinds. — The Hospital THE POULTRY YARD. Duff, Wyandotte, Calo. The above pictures show the ideal fowl—short; plump; body full; breast and stately cattley. These Duffs are strictly Wyandotte in all else but color, except that flesh are just a little larger than the silky lace. In general appearance they resemble the Duff Plymouth Rocks, except that the latter have single combs and the former have rose combs. They are splendid market, fowls, and are good layers during the fall and winter months. They are very dooley and do well in small, yards, though if allowed freedom they roam the fields and orchards as much as some of the smaller breeds. Fruit and Poultry. A profitable combination on a small farm within easp reach of a good market is fruit and poultry. Hens, to do well, require a liberal range, that contains bushes or, trees enough to supply partial shade. They, also require a, variety of green stuff, with a sprinkling of insects. Such a combination may be easily, supplied by planting the land to fruit and enclosing it in poultry netting wire. The hens do not know that they are confined. They dig little here and there, but quickly abandon the task to chase a moth or a grasshopper. If the trees or bushes are mulched they, work in the little to their entire satisfaction, destroying many Insects. All the bush fruits are benefited by poultry, provided the soil is made soft enough for them to scratch. Bush fruits cannot thrive well in ground that is packed down hard or covered with a mat of grass. But if the plow and cultivator are operated as they should be early in the season, the ground is put in condition to yield fruit and benefit the fowls, which is the most profitable way to get two crops from the land at once. Farm Stock Journal. The above represents a very convenient and comfortable poultry house, built against a stable or other outbuilding. The portion adjoining the other wall is eight feet high, and the lowest part of roof is six feet. The roosts and dropping boards are set parallel with the yards, and a partition separates the two houses, so that they may each have a yard, as shown in illustration. The nest boxes are placed under the dropping boards and the straw and litter are kept on the floors of the houses. Of course, we prefer the separate scratching shed, but when something cheap, designed for utility, is wanted then the above is most admirably suited. It may be built any size desired, and the cost will be much less than that of a separate house and yards. Practical Poultry Points. A edof, atry scratching shed is better than a dark, closed house for the day room. There is not foundation for the assertion that the sweet, rich flavor of the leggg betongs to the bread. That condition can only be brought about by the quality of the food. Bad cases of feather eating have been urged, by painting, around the hare places, on hens that have had their feathers, plucked with a preparation made of powdered aloes, dissolved in alcohol. Hens do, not like the bitter taste. Board floors in the chicken house are better than wet ground, but dry ground is best of all. Vegetables of some kind should be fed, the poultry like the round, cabbage, potatoes, beets, turnips, etc. Shredded alfalfa, which can abut two cents per pound, is a fine green food, where yards, to provide same fresh are not available either, he has dried rain-houses then added to a one- pound feed once.

For that reason alone the reception accorded to the Tenth Regiment United States Calvary is properly deserving of a place in the annals of the colored race in America. It is a regiment with a record and a regiment worth seeing lean,hard,square-shouldered troopers, proud of themselves and their service, proud of their officers, proud of their flag and their country, as good soldiers ought to be. Yet the grandfathers and grandmothers of these cavalrymen were slaves, with no rights tha t the white man was bound to respect. Forty-six years lie between the dark riots and the crowds that applauded the Tenth Regiment yesterday. It means much to the progress to the Negroes of America that they have produced such a regiment with such a record. Men who have proved their willingness to die for their country are surely entitled for themselves and for their people, to the ordinary guarantees of life, liberty and the pursuits of happiness which every white American claims as a brightright. They deserve to feel that for themselves as for every other American the Republic is opportunity. When the next great crisis comes in the struggle for human liberty the city that applauded the Tenth Regiment yesterday may have a keener understanding than it once had of the Lincoln's immortal lines: "And there will be some black men who can remember that with silent tongue and clenched teeth and steady eyes and well poised bayonet: they have helped mankind on to this great consummation."—New York World, July 28. What Train For South? Bishop Lampton is being roundly censured for his letter of abject apology written to the white men of his town, on being ordered out of the place. There is no question but what the apology is abject—it is sickening so and yet there is an excuse, for circumstances alter cases. It is all very well for some of these Northern Negro Editors to breathe fire and drink fire water, while enjoying the protection of their Northern homes. But what one of them—even to the Guardian man, will go South tomorrow, or next week and say and write the things they say and write in their northern homes? Bishop Lampton's property, his houses, and his lands, representing years of denying and saving, and upon which he must depend to care for his family and support himself in his old age, are located in the South—right in the town out of which he was ordered. These things no doubt were a controlling factor in the writing of that letter. Some of these nervy, fire-eating, martyr-loving Negro editors who eke out a precarious existence and who preach war and extermination, ought to go South and preach their doctrine of force and reprisal, in order to be consistent. This always bombarding the enemy a thousand miles away with guns that carry their missiles but a mile, is a favorite pasttime of some Negro editors. If you have all the nerve you claim, and if you are as courageous as you would make people believe why not go into the jungles of the South and hunt, slay and kill the white Southerner? If given a ticket, and guaranteed their expenses, and a good living and a paid-up life insurance policy in the bargain, even Trotter would not go South and preach the defiance that he is preaching in Boston. We agree that Bishop Lampton's letter was an abject apology, and too abject, but gentlemen the North is not the South. Boston will spare Mr. Trotter for a few weeks until he goes South and rights our wrongs, and Brooklyn will spare Mr. Lark for the same period, and for the same mission. Now gentlemen what train for the South?—Washington Bee Northfield Letter. Northfield, Mass., July 29th, 1909. Mr. Sol C Johnson; Dear sir: A great meeting ended today. The sixth annual meeting of the summer school of Sunday school methods at Norfield, Mass., closes at noon. The Massachusetts Interdenominational Cooperative Sunday School Association of which Mr. Hamilton S. Conant is general secretary, a great and good man. 602 Ford building Boston, Mass. This association is made up of 7 states Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut New York. We had also seven other states represented, namely; New Jersey 3, Pennsylvania 4, District of Columbia 1, Georgia 1, Maryland 1, Laba. 2, Ontario 1. We were all welcome to share in all of its work and all of its pleasures; and delights. After each days work it was pleasure to partake of the good things prepared for all of the S. S. workers. Only three colored, two ladies from Springfield, Mass, and myself from Georgia. On the first two evenings we had social parties, the third invitation were extended to tea with the Mount Hermon school for young men four and a half miles over the Connecticut river. Fine teams were secured for the drive at 50 cents each returning at 9:30 p.m. There we met in the Mount Hermon Church until tea were ready, then to the beautiful new dining hall we appeared. Mr. Moody says the new hall will accommodate 1200 people at once to tables. Songs, and speeches were then made by many. The next evening we went up to the top of Sunset Mountain to see the sun go down, then return through the beautiful Northfield hotel where we were invited to a social on the night of the 28th. This hotel contains 140 or 150 rooms owned and operated by a stock company. Mr. A G Moody is general manager. The Rev. D. L Moody, left two sons, W R Moody who presides over the conference of Christian workers and the younger, Paul Moody. This Sunset mountain that I spoke of, we can look over and see the mountain near the Connecticut river where Mr. Moody says King Phillip camped in 1673 Within the last two years two new buildings have been erected the Seage Memorial Chapel costing $100,000 and Since hall costing $50,000 all given by this widowed lady for christian education. The Massachusetts Sunday School Association will meet in September in Boston, Mass. The General Conference of Christian Workers will meet the 31st to Aug. 15th. Rev. M W Gilbert, of New York city writes me today-that he will join me next week at Northfield. A New School for Colored Children-A Home for Old People. Two years ago the priests of the African Mission Society, at the request of Right Rev. Bishop Kiely, took charge of the colored Catholics in the immense State of Georgia. In these two years the good priests, under the direction of a brave pioneer missionary, Very Ignatius Lissner; have done glorious work for the welfare of the colored Catholics. The little congregation of St. Benedict's Church in our city has been increased and strengthened; St. Benedict's school with its devoted teaching staff, the good Franciscan Sisters has given a good primary education to children of every denomination. At Augusta a little school will be opened for the colored children next October; the church of St. Francis Xavier has gathered together the few colored Catholics in Augusta and its meet influence will spread itself more and more amongst the colored population of our sister city. The little school at Hatcher's station unfortunately has been destroyed by fire a few weeks ago. But the zeal of the good priests has not been damped by difficulties and trials; they will always be faithful to their motto "Forward, and always Forward." Very Rev. Ignatius Lissner has just bought from the owners of the Fellwood tract a number of lots on which he intends to establish a school for colored children and a home for old and infirm people. The Fellwood tract is favorably situated for these institutions on the west side of Savannah between Bay street and the Augusta road. Lots are being sold there every day. A few beautiful homes have already been erected by colored men, who are being moved by the praiseworthy ambition of having their "own sweet home." Soon a nice colony of good colored citizens will be established on that beautiful healthy spot where peace and happiness will reign supreme. Near enough to the city for the workingman, Fellwood tract is an ideal spot for our children, who, will be sheltered from the evil influences of the city and at the same time get all the advantages of the city children. The school is being erected and it will be ready by October 1st. It will be organized on the same lines as, is St. Benedict's school in Savannah. Later on a home for old people will be erected on the same spot. The establishment of a well organized home for old and infirm Negroes will certainly be a blessing for the colored population of Savannah. There is a grand and beautiful home for the white old folks under the care of the Little Sisters of the Poor. But where is a similar institution for old colored men and women? What a grand and noble charity it would be to provide with food and lodging our old people, who are often without a home and without a friend! Every colored man in our community, who has at heart the welfare of his less fortunate brethren, should take a practical interest in the organization of such a glorious institution. But the building and maintenance of such an undertaking require a great amount of money. Vory Rev. Father Lissner and his priests will spare no trouble and no expense in the carrying out of this noble project. But they depend on the help and support of the colored people, especially of those whom God has blessed with moderate means. Rev. Martin Pfleger, with the precious seven years' missionary work on the west coast of Africa, has been appointed to take charge of that new mission. His heart and soul are in his work. Let us help the good priest in his noble undertaking. There will be the coward and selfish persons, who will stand aloof, move their heads incredulously and perhaps even criticize; but others will be generous and noble hearted enough to appreciate and to encourage a grand work of philanthropy and of charity. Amongst the latter ones, you will be, dear editor. You have at heart the welfare of the colored race; and I feel confident that you will do everything in your means to make known and to encourage the grand undertaking of the Catholic Priests. J. D.

Lawn at Scott Bros Gaston and LIST BROAD streets Sunday August 15th, 11th Sunday after Pentecost and Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. First mass at 6:30 a.m with a short instruction. Second mass and sermon at 9:30 a.m. Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament and Sunday school immediately after the last mass. Father Dahent will preach on the solemnity of the day. It is not an article of faith, but an old tradition and a pious belief that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was assumed into heaven immediately after her death. It seems squite natural that the Mother of our Saviour, the pure and immaculate Virgin, the masterpiece of God's creation should have preserved from the corruption of the grave. There is an immense difference between the ascension of our Lord into heaven and the assumption of Mary. Christ ascended by His own divine power; but Mary was "assumed" into heaven by the power of God, not by her own human faculties. The assumption, celebrated every year on the 10th of August, is a great day of joy and glory for us Catholics, and it is celebrated with great solemnity in the old Catholic countries.

Fertile Are the Art Fakers. Forge Equally With Pen and Brush—Produce Old or Modern, Master, According to Market—Their Craft an Ancient One. ::: ::: ::: ::: While the faking of works of art has been brought to a high perfection by the methods of modern science, the industry probably began many thousands of years ago, when some cave man copied a rock sketch of a mammoth and signed it with famous initials. It is a sad fact that scarabs wrapped up with Egyptian mummies centuries before the Christian era were often counterfeits produced for the foreign markets by unprincipled countrymen of Plato. The period of the Renaissance was fertile in imitations. Michael Angelo himself began his career by burying in the earth a statue which he carved and thus turned it into a valued antique. Andrea del Sarto copied Raphael's portrait of Leo X., and it is still a question whether the picture now at Naples is the original or the copy. The younger David Tenlers made it his business to supply the world with multiplied Titians, and another able counterfeiter kept the memory of Jan van Huyssen green a generation after the artist's death. The wise collector reckons not only with modern frauds, but with the deceptions of the old masters and the ancients. It takes art to conceal art. There is a problem of production and of distribution. A favorite method of distribution is "to place pictures with a wet nurse," says Helen Zimmern, in the National Review. A picture dark with smoke and dust is hung in some peasant's house in a remote district. The dealer informs his prey of a great discovery and takes him to see the canvas. The instructed peasant vows that the picture is an heirloom; it has always hung in the same place from the time of his father's father, and he can hardly be induced to sell it. Finally he names a large figure as the price. A bargain, whispers the dealer, and after a little dickering the customer is out and the dealer and his rural collaborator are most profitably in. When genuine old pictures are found in peasants' houses they are generally injured owing to primitive cleanings with onions, which takes off the varnish and some of the colors. But these wrecks are eagerly sought by dealers as the basis for restorations sold as genuine antiques. An expert who works for $1.25 a day can turn out tasty old masters calculated to deceive the most cultured inhabitants of Pittsburg. The Italian have a peculiar sympathetic faculty for reproducing the works of their illustrious ancestors. At Siena the panels for quaint old pictures with gold backgrounds may be seen openly drying before the shop doors. The panels are suitably worm caten and chemically aged. Sometimes an ingenious patchwork of the Glottesque period is made of a number of old but ruined pictures, and so cleverly are the fragments combined that purchasers are advised to select simple compositions with few figures so as to avoid this particular hoax. It used to be considered an infallible test of old pictures to' rub the surface with alcohol, which causes the varnish and colors of new paintings to run. But the art forgers have imported from Mexico the juice of a cactus, used by the natives as a weather preservative for their huts, which, being spread on a painting, protects it from the attacks of chemicals. The test of looking at the back of a panel or canvas is met by the resourceful faker, who attaches by means of a special paste his copy or pastiche to the canvas or panel of some genuine but worthless old painting. The hybrid product is baked in an oven to harden the glue and cause the beloved cracks of venerability. Wood ashes and smoke also impart age, while "that warm, golden tint that is the collector's joy" is gained by rubbing the canvas with liquorice juice. Authentic flayspecks are produced with beautiful simplicity. The PECULIAR SWISS FARMING. Nomadic Life of a Simple, Honest People With Primitive Manners. Farmers are usually considered a very stationary class of people not given to frequent removes; but in a little Swiss valley near the source of the Rhone River are about two thousand peasant farmers, who from the nature of their conditions are frequently on the move. There are groups of habitations wherever there is land to till or pasturage, and the farmers live wherever there is work to be done, leaving one house empty to move into another, so that some families may own several houses. to their villages to plant their fields and gardens; in May and June they move again to the pasture regions. In summer part of them attend to the live stock at the pastures; some work in the vineyards and others attend to their garden crops, etc. In the fall all the farmers go down to the vineyards by the river to harvest grapes and make wine. They move from place to place not only for convenience, but in order to take their live stock with them for enriching the soil. At each of the stations outside At any season of the year entire families may be seen either ascending or descending the valley with their herds or household goods as though they were leaving the country. At the head of each procession is a mule carrying the farmer; the mother and children follow, and behind them come the cattle, goats, sheep and pigs. Throughout the valley, which is only thirteen miles long, are large numbers of houses and barns seemingly without a single tenant. In December and January the peasant farmers with their live stock are grouped in the lower pastures; in February they are living in their villages where the largest amount of hay is stored; they move down the valley in March to work in their vineyards near the river, and in April they move back Bogus Marks of Age. operator stands a few feet from the canvas and with a fine brush dipped in a mixture of gum and China ink or sepa flicks enough fly marks upon the painting to make it look as if it had reposed on the walls of an American farm kitchen for several centuries. If these artificial certificates of age are accidentally too numerous some of them can be removed before the liquid has set. When a copyist finds himself in a technical hole, as rarely happens among these skilled gentry, he blurs the painting at the difficult spot and, applying a damp cloth, causes a growth of mold, which adds to the aged appearance of the work. Imitated even are the modified lines found in the masters' works showing where the artists changed their contours. The forging of famed signatures, old and new, is a specialty. A neat trick is to place a signature under a moldy spot and let the happy customer discover it himself when he has taken the painting home and subjected it to amateur cleaning. Modern artists of note are unblushingly counterfeited in their lifetime. Sidney Cooper was so often asked to decide whether a work was from his brush that he charged a regular fee to cover loss of time. Dlaz vainly-disavowed the paternity of a picture whose purchaser insisted that the work was a genuine Dlaz. The Barbizon school has been especially counterfeited. America is said to be crowded with false Corots, Courbets, Troyons and Rousseau. Celebrated Cases of Deception. A thousand tricks are used in the manufacture of old prints and drawings. The paper for antique engravings is stained in a coffee solution, and if the connoisseur licks an edge of the paper a white spot will appear, whereupon the dealer threatens to sue for damages. A genuine antique paper taken from the blank pages of old account books and dairies makes detection more difficult. Photography is used both in committing and detecting fraud. In the first case autographs are imitated by the photogravure process and, second, the camera reveals parchment erasures that are invisible to the naked eye. The British Museum once came near paying $5,000,000 for manuscript variants of the Old Testament produced by a gift swindler named Shapira. The same man swindled the German Emperor out of a huge sum by the collection of Moabite pottery. The difficulty of detecting forged documents is shown by the fact that at the world famous auction room in Paris, the Hotel Drouot, a day is required for the verification of furniture, but eight days to establish the genuineness of autographs. A celebrated case of deception was that of M. Michel Chasles, a geometer, who bought a collection of 27,000 autographs, including letters from Jesus Christ, Lazarus, Mary Magdalene, Judas, Cleopatra, Alexander the Great, Alcibiades, Pilate and others, for which he paid a round sum. The counterfeiter got two years in jail and the purchaser obtained more deprivation than sympathy. A bibliographic expert was glad that he examined a rare old manuscript page by page, for he discovered one page not perforated, while all the rest of the pages were bored through by an assiduous bookworm. The forger had neglected to bore the false page which he inserted. Earthnware and porcelains are very much imitated. Bastianini, an illiterate but gifted Italian, made a fifteenth century bust which was exhibited in Paris in 1887 and sold to the Government for 13,600 francs. It was placed in the Louvre, and Bastianini claimed the credit of the work, which was reluctantly conceded to him when he proved that the bust was a portrait of a live workman instead of a long deceased poet. to their villages to plant their fields and gardens; in May and June they move again to the pasture regions. In summer part of them attend to the live stock at the pastures; some work in the vineyards and others attend to their garden crops, etc. In the fall all the farmers go down to the vineyards by the river to harvest grapes and make wine. They move from place to place not only for convenience, but in order to take their live stock with them for enriching the soil. At each of the stations outside of the villages each family has a house and barn with a stable under it, a granary and a cellar. These peculiar people are farmers of the old-fashioned type, raising everything nearly that they need on their own lands. The soil supplies them with bread, fruit and wine; they build their own houses, make their own furniture, spin yarn, weave cloth and make their own shoes from the hides of their cattle. The women are hard workers, helping the men in summer and weaving garments and braiding straw hats in winter. They are simple, honest people, with primitive manners, and content with a ration of milk, cheese, coarse bread, and in winter dried meat, which simple fare they will set before strangers, never thinking of asking payment. You Look Prematurely Old Reputation "The Autocrat," remarked the Reoondite Person, "made a remark the import of which escaped me until the other day. He said: 'Many a man has a reputation because of the reputation he expects to have some day!'" "That's not a half had remark," suggested the Practical Person, "but my son—just out of college, you know, and in the habit of thinking humpbacked thoughts, as it were—said something only this morning that appealed to me: 'Some men,' he said, 'get a reputation and keep it; other men get a reputation and make it keep them.'"—New York Times.

CHILD HAD SIXTY BOILS And Suffered Annually With a Red Scald-Like Humor on Her Head— "When my little Vivian was about six months old her head broke out in boils. She had about sixty in all and I used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which cured her entirely. Sometimes later a humor broke out behind her ears and spread up on to her head until she nearly covered it. The humor looked like a coal, very hard with a stiffy, clear fluid coming from it. This occurred every spring. I always used Cuticura Soap and Ointment which never failed to heal it. The last time it broke out it became so bad that I was discouraged. But I continued the use of Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent until she was well and has never been troubled in the last two years. Mrs. M. A.

"Well, we've moved to the country," said the young housewife, "and I have had my first taste of the pestiferous village tradespeople. We got out of the city for rest and comfort, but will have neither until these persons, who have things to sell make up their minds to let us run our own business. "They wouldn't even let us get the furniture in the house. There was I very early in the morning in an empty house waiting for the vans to come and unload and the bell began to ring. It kept ringing all that day and for some days thereafter. Not continuously, of course, but the tradespeople came so close on each other's heels that there was very little let-up. "First it was one milkman, then another milkman and soon thereafter a third. They seemed to take it as a personal insult that I wouldn't give an order forthwith. "Icemen came in droves. The grocers appeared with blank order books all ready to hang on our kitchen door. They wanted to deliver goods right off despite the fact that there wasn't a thing in the house to put them in." "Later in the day when the furniture had arrived and we got things into some sort of order I wandered into the village and made a few casual purchases. Now in each store they seemed to take it for granted that I had become their customer for life. "I'll send around in the morning for your order,' was what. I heard in every place, and when I said they needn't, that I intended to do my own ordering, in person each day it made no difference. "Around they all came the next day smile on face and order book held expectantly in hand. I sent them all away, orderless but still smiling, and later went to the stores as I intended. In time, maybe, they will learn that I'll buy when and where I please. "The worst shock came on a Sunday morning. We were all tired out with the moving and getting settled and intended to sleep late, very late; but before 7 there was a persistent ringing of the bell. My husband wrapped himself in a bathrobe and descended. It was a boy who wanted our order for newspapers. He went away quickly and my nusband kept saying things to himself all the way back to bed.

"A Maine deacon of the early '40's was talking to the minister. He sniffed and whined: "Oh, yes, Job suffered some, I can't denyin' that parson. But Job never knew what it was to have his队 run off and kill his wife right in the midst of the harvest season, with hired girls wantin' two dollars and two and a half a week." —Washington Star.

PANEL THE LEGISLATURE HAS ADJOURNED Lawmakers Finish Labors and Leave for Their Homes. TO BE NO BIENNIAL SESSIONS Many Important Bills Were Not Reached, the Compulsorv Education Bill Being Among Them. WHAT LEGISLATURE DID; THINGS LEFT UNDONE. Among the most important actions of the legislature were the approval of the suspension of Railroad Commissioner S. G. MoLendon, the passage of the employers' liability bill and the appropriation of $65,800 to buy terminal property for the state road at Chattanooga. Other general bills passed were those providing for the election of county school commissioners by the people, to prohibit the use of trading stamps, to create a state board of osteopathy, to make February 12 Georgia Day, to allow firemen, policemen and other city employees to accept free transportation from street railway companies. A resolution was also passed providing for the acceptance of a code prepared by Judge John L. Hopkins of Atlanta, on the approval of a legislative committee. Under the new tax act, provision is made for the taxing of near beer and a resolution was passed making available the money derived from taxes on near beer already in the state treasury. Among the measures which at tracted great attention, but which failed to get through were the biennial sessions bill, the game law, the compulsory education bill and the service pension bill. Atlanta, Ga.—At midnight Wednesday the first session of the general assembly of 1909-1910 was officially at an end, in accordance with the requirements of the state constitution, which limits sessions to fifty days. However, as usual, the session ran on, and adjournment came at one c'clock. The legislature never completes its work is time to adjourn by midnight of the last day of the session and the present general assembly was not breaking precedent in that respect. Before midnight the usual scenes of merriment began in both houses. At times each stood adjourned waiting for the other. Moon sessions were organized to help while away the time and what some senators and representatives appeared to consider music was also introduced for the detections of the participants. The throwing of paper wads, one of the invariable features of last nights in the legislature, was introduced in the house even before the near beer tax had been settled. Even the watchful eye of Speaker Holder, who has proved one of the best disciplinarians the house has ever had in the chair, was not sharp enough to prevent such outbursts of playfulness. The last two hours of the session were spent in settling differences between the houses on the general tax act. The main fight came over the near beer section, the house finally accepting the substitute offered by the senate. After the near beer tax had been settled, the main contention came over the tax on soda fountain siirups, which was finally placed at one-fourth of 1 per cent on gross receipts. The session of the general assembly which has just closed will probably be remembered more for the things accomplished. While a great many measures have been passed, comparatively few of these are of such a nature as to be of any unusual interest throughout the state. The injection of the McLendon suspension and the near beer legislation into the proceedings of the body absorbed so much time that the members found themselves unable to enact many measures of general interest for which it is declared there were substantial majorities. The biennial sessions bill which was passed by the senate was never reached by the house, although its friends assert positively that a majority of the house favor the bill. The same fate came to the bill for the better protection of the game, which was very strongly urged by the sportsmen of the state. No definite action was ever taken on the compulsory education bill, for which a strong fight was made by a number of organizations. Among the bills of general interest which have succeeded in getting through both houses are those to make county school houses elected the peleo to prohibit the trade of tradingamps; to create a state board of osteopathy, and to make February 12, Georgia Day. The passage of resolutions sustaining the suspension of Railroad Commissioner S. G. McLendon came after days of parliamentary maneuvering and debate, which consumed the greater part of the session. In the senate much time was consumed in an effort to secure the passage of a resolution approving an amendment to the federal constitution for an income tax, but the movement was without success. The fish and game bill was tabled after a hard fight to get it through. The bill to authorize the governor to exchange six acres of land along the right of way of the Western and Atlantic Railroad for other land in Cobb county owned by the state was lost after a tiresome debate. The house bill providing for an appropriation of $200,000 to pay additional pensions to confederate veterans and widows, under the Foster service pension amendment to the constitution, did not get through the senate at this session. The general appropriation bill, as finally passed by the house and senate, carries a total of $4,968,860 for the year 1910, and an addition of $250,000 to that for the common school fund for 1911. Special appropriations carry the amount to considerably over $5,000,000. The appropriation for the Georgia Tech is increased from $60,000 to $70,000. The School for the Deaf gets $50,000 instead of $12,500. This was an increase of $7,500 over the amounts originally recommended. The University of Georgia gets $37,500 instead of $22,500. The State Normal School gets an increase from $20,000 to $12,000. The State College of Agriculture gets $60,000, of which $10,000 is to be used for -extension work, which will bring its benefits closer to the people in their own homes. There was no change in the appropriation for the common schools of the state. That appropriation remains at $2,250 for 1910 and $2,500,000 for 1911. In view of the sensational charges against the management of the Georgia State Sánitarium at Millegville, contained in the official report of the investigating committee recently given out by Governor Brown, the house passed a resolution by Mr. Henderson of Irwin, calling for an investigation by a joint committee of the general assembly to further look into these alleged irregularities. The senate passed the resolution without debate, thus making investigation sure. Following the action of the house and senate in passing the resolution for a legislative investigation of the state sanitarium for the insane at Millegville, the following committee was named by President Slaton and by Speaker Holder; [Senators McLean, Longley, Conley and Griffith; Representatives Henderson of Irwin, McCrotty of Schley, Brown of Fulton, Carswell of Wilkinson, Tuggle of Troup, Eaker of Lumpkin and Brown of Murray. Taxes on the manufacture and sale of near beer in Georgia are to be levied for the next two years in accordance with the Price substitute for the Alexander section of the general tax act. The Price substitute, which, under the action of house, becomes the law for near beer taxes, provides a tax dt $1,000 on manufacturers and $300 on retailers of near beer. It also contains stringent regulations, the most important of which is that no near beer shall be sold except in towns of over 2,500 inhabitants. It was finally agreed by both houses to fix the tax on all soda fountain siropes at one-fourth of one per cent on gross receipts. This was considered a victory by both sides, by one because it was a material reduction in the tax, and by the other because it is claimed it establishes the principle of a gross receipt tax. The senate, by a vote of 35 to 0, passed the employers' liability bill by Mr. White of Screven, just as it came from the house. The bill gives employees engaged in hazardous occupations the right to recover for injury and relatives the right to recover for such employees' death, even in cases where they are guilty of contributory negligence, provided they exercise ordinary care. The bill to increase the governor's staff from thirty to fifty, as fixed by the senate, was tabled. The senate passed without opposition the bill by Mr. Upshaw of Douglas, already passed by the house, providing that where a confederate veteran drawing a pension, dies after such pension has accrued or become due and before payment is made by the state, such pension shall be paid by the pension commissioner to the widow of said deceased veteran. An amendment by Senator Cates, providing for payment of pensions to widows in similar cases of death prior to the passage-of the bill, was adopted by the senate. The senate concurred in the house amendment to the joint resolution providing for the appointment of a commission to investigate and report a bill to revise and amend the tax laws of the state. The senate further amended the resolution so as to provide for payment of per diems and expenses of the members. The senate passed the house bill by Mr. Johnston of Batrow, which forfeits the license and right to do business in the state of any foreign insurance company which removes a suit brought against it in the state courts to the United States courts. The bill was amended so as not to interfere with suits which may be brought by the insurance companies to protect their loan contracts or other debts due them in Georgia. The senate, by a vote of 24 to 1, concurred in the house amendment providing for election of county school commissioners by the people. The senate is such as to require all those who wish to become candidates to stand the prescribed examination. The original senate bill exempted from examination those with diplomas and certificates from higher educational institutions. The senate passed, by a vote of 32 to 3, the house resolution by Mr. Alexander of DeKalb, appropriating $65,800 for the purchase of approximately 57-12 acres of land near the city of Chattanooga, Tenn., to be used as terminal property for the Western and Atlantic Railroad, belonging to the state. Both house and senate passed the bill to buy the code for the state of Georgia, offered by Judge John L. Hopkins. It was agreed that the state should pay $6,000 for this code, provided that after an examination by a commission the code should be found satisfactory. The bill of Mr. Rutherford of the twenty-second to secure the benevolent and fraternal organizations the exclusive right to the use of their names was passed. A bill by Mr. McCurry of the 31st to permit officers and called men in the National Guard of Georgia to count in their service in reckoning the time of retirement the years spent in the national guard of other states, was passed. The house refused to pass a bill to permit counties and municipalities the right to grant franchises. IN THE WORLD OF SPORTS There are no regular players in the Southern League who are batting in the select .300 class. There are four men in that class, but not of them play in league in enough games to warrant their being there. Ben McGillvray, the Baron outfielder, who is now playing first base for the Dubs, is the real leader of the Southern League players with an average of .292. The Barons started to turn this player loose some time ago, but Molesworth made a wise move in keeping him getting a new outfielder and switching Gygil to second base and playing McGillvray at first, Noah Henline, another Baron, is second-In the list, with an average of .286. Paul Sentell of Mobile brings up third place, with an average of .282. Dick Bayless, the fast outfielder of the Atlanta team, is the leading run-getter of the league, having crossed the pars of 33 games of Molesworth second, with 57 games. Henline leads the players in the number of hits made, with 112, being the first Southern League player to pass the century mark. John Welmer of New Orleans comes second with 101 hits, and Molesworth of Birmingham is third with 100. These are the only players who have passed the century mark. A movement has again been started to bring into Atlanta next season a South Atlantic League in addition to the Southern League team that is already there. This was started last year, but somehow fell through. It is understood that the directors of the Atlanta Southern League Club are willing to purchase a South Atlantic League franchise, presumably Columbia, and locate same in Atlanta, the Sally Atlanta team playing when its highest Competition record was the 1950s. This would give Atlanta continuous baseball and no doubt it would be a big thing for the town. Reports from Birmingham are that Carlton Moresworth, one of the pioneers of the present Southern League, will retire as manager at the end of the present season in favor of another to be named. Pennant or no pennant, first division or down, with the Misit Four, the year 1989 marks the last in the Southern League for Montgomery. That's been the tip for some time, and Secretary Bill Stickney of Montgomery has confirmed it. The Florida State League season has been extended to October 1. The present schedule of games will be completed as arranged and then the other games of the extended season will be arranged for. Jack Horner, who was one of the many umpires used during the present season in the South Atlantic League, is now a scout for the Detroit Club, and is looking over the players of the South Atlantic. Good material is scarce, and many of the Sally players may get a chance to go higher at the close of the season. Savannah has purchased Pitcher Murray of the Tri-State League. Savannah has lost big money all along and the only hope of coming out even lies in a championship series with Chattanooga. Hence she is doing all she can to finish on top during the second half. President Jones of South Atlantic League is still having troubles with umplres. There is a baseball team in Libby, Mont., that has not lost a game in fifteen years. That's the kind of a team any man would like to manage. The half-way mark has been passed in the major league. Now watch for some of the players to do sensational stunts to get in line for fat contracts in 1910. Whenever the Detroit Tigers need a hit or a run to win it's up to Cobb. And, may we remark in a Missouri meerschaum sense, it's a pipe he'll make good. Magnates didn't always have to pay large prices for athletes from the minor leagues. Cannitz, the Pittsburgh star, cost Dreyfuss only $200. Barney purchased S. Howard from the Vicksburg Club of the Cotton States League and farmed him out for a couple of years to Toledo. Sam Berger, manager for James J. Jeffries, expressed considerable delight and said: "Well, I guess there'll be a fight," when informed that Jack Johnson had posted $5,000 in Chicago to bind a match with Jeffries for the heavyweight championship. Jack Johnson, pugilistic champion, made the retort courteous to Jim Jeffries announcing that the latter must, before he leaves for Europe, set a time and place for a meeting where articles can be drawn up and other details fixed. Johnson wants to meet Jeffries in person before the two meet in the ring. President W. F. Stovall of the Florida State League, in view of the fact that he would be absent for a month or more, tendered his resignation, which was accepted and F. R. McConnell was elected president of the league. While no definite statement on the matter has been made, it is very likely that the Macon Club will advocate the election of Captain Joyner of Atlanta to the presidency of the league, succeeding the present incumbent, Mr. W. A. Jones, who will resign, it is believed, on account of business interests. Little more than an hour after Harry C. Pulliam, late president of the National League, lay beneath the green sward of Cave Hill cemetery in Louisville, Ky., John Heydler of Cincinnati, secretary of the league, had been chosen president in his place at a special meeting of the directors. At a meeting of the directors of the Florida State Baseball League held in Tampa it was decided to make a division of the season into two parts, the winners in each half to play a deciding game for the championship. The meeting had present as representatives from the clubs in the league the following: President W. F. Stovall, Secretary Gary and Umpires Graves and McConnell, Fred M. Ball, representing the Tampas, Manager Willford of the Arcadias, Vice President Lewis of the Bartows, Dugal M. Bule, representing the Lakeland Club. President Andrews of Chattanooga put a quietus on the report that the Chattanooga team does not want to come out on top in the second half, by announcing to the players that when the season ended on Labor Day, September 6, they would be paid off up to and including the 15th of the month, provided they win the second half of the season. This means that, if it were Chattanooga players win the second half, they will be paid for a week's work, which they will not have to perform; whereas, if they failed to win the second half and had to play a post season series, they would have to work through seven additional games without any extra pay. George F. Cahill, the inventor of the electrically lighted field, has returned to his old stamping ground at Holyoke, Hass. No other plans for night baseball have been made, but a season of night football is already a certainty. It will require one or two more towers to give enough illumination for baseball, but there is little doubt in my mind about its ultimate practicality. There is already a Nike NIL League. The element of intense personal interest will be needed to make night ball a success. The cost of light will not be excessive. The Cahill lighting principle is correct and he is well on the way to the solution of the problem of night baseball. James J. Jeffries sailed for Europe on the George Washington, to be gone about three weeks. Jeffries left his sparring partner and manager, Sam Berger, behind to look after bids and make arrangements for the proposed Jack Johnson mill, which match promoters all over the world are invited to bid for. Jeffries has posted a $5,000 forfeit, as has also Johnson. By the time Jeffries returns to this country it is expected that the place of battle will be decided upon, proponents those who are after the match send in their adduce editable. Up to date there have been a few bids made for the fight, the first coming from Nick Aprea of the Southern Athletic Club of Savannah. This club offers a guarantee of $20,000. Some doubt exists as to whether John Heydler will be chosen to ceed the late Harry Pullam when the national league magnates meet in December. Miss May Sutton, woman champion tennis player of the world, whose engagement to Harry B. Ham, son of George I. Ham of the City of Mexico was announced in July, has broken the engagement. "We will call it all a jolly," said she. "It is all off, and I am glad that I am still footloose and fancy free. After I defend my title in southern California, I'm going east and play the game of my life, forgetting about such things as engagements and marriage. I am just a girl. Why. I won't be 'skidoo' (23) for a few months yet, and I don't think it is fashionable for a girl to marry before she is 25, anyway." Manager Mullaney of Jacksonville states that this will be his last year in the South Atlantic. "It has been the most miserable year of my life," he declares. "Usually, I've got some enjoyment out of baseball, whether my team wins or loses, but this year that has been impossible. This thing of rotten umpiring, rotten executive management and interference by the directors has been too much for me." The man who declared that "good goods come in small packages," must have had his eyes on Walker of Atlanta. Castro was a witness in a police court case recently. A fan spied him in the court room and, approaching the genial count, said: "What have they got you for?" "I am accused of larceny," said Castro, very seriously. "Of larceny? You don't say," spoke the astonished bug. "Yes," explained the count. "I am charged with stealing a base, but I don't think they will be able to prove it." J. A. Blount of Greensboro, Ala., won the state championship in the trap-shooting tournament which was held in Birmingham. Blount and John Livingston were tied for first, but Blount hit him two in the shoot-off. Livingston, however, was the high amateur for the state, breaking 467 out of 500. Among the visiting professionals, Walter Huff was highest, with 480 out of 500. The world's record in the hop-step-and-jump, made by Daniel F. Ahearn, has been disallowed on a technicality. The distance, 50 feet 6 1-2 inches, fully a foot better than the previous record, was carefully measured, but the registration committee of the Metropolitan Association of the American Athletic Union, announced Ahearn had failed to file his entry blank properly, and was accordingly ineligible. Thomas Kirby, the former Georgetown University athlete, and last year coach at the University of Georgia, who, in the past few years, has proved his worth as a teacher of gridiron tactics, has been chosen coach of George Washington University. It would really help the American League if Detroit should lose the pennant this year. It is beginning to get monotonous. The Little Rock fans are heartbroken over the bad slump of the team, and believing that Mique Finn has caused the discord and dissention are circulating a petition asking for the manager's release. This will be presented to the owners of the club. In the National League the Chicago Cubs are actually beginning to threaten. The tremendous lead that the Plitsburg Pirates had awhile back is slowly melting away. An ingenious "night riding" scheme to destroy the winning chances of race horses is being investigated by the Canadian Turf Exchange, which met at Windsor, Ont. The alleged scheme of the "night riders" is said to have been secretly to take likely winners out of the stalls the night before a race and run them around the track until the animals were exhausted. The result would be no speed the next day. Bartow was awarded the pennant for the first half season series in the Florida State League. kerson and Arant.
