Dr. Cook Is Given a Tremendous Welcome in New York City. Cook's Rival Arrived in Sydney and Announced That He "Brought Back the Pole." New York City—"I have come from the pole. I have brought my story and my data with me. I have not come home to enter into arguments with one man or with fifty men, but I am here to present a clear record of a piece of work over which I have a right to display a certain amount of pride. I am perfectly willing to abide by the final cordict of this record of competent judges. That must be the last word, and that alone can satisfy me and the public. Furthermore, not only will my report be before you in black and white, but I will also bring to America human witnesses to prove that. I have been to the pole." Such is the sum and substance of the first message Dr. Frederick A. Cook, brought home in person to America, answering his critics the world over. The teamship Oscar II had purportedly held back not to disassemble the reception plans of the club. Club of America, but she nosed her way into Quarantine an hour too early for everybody but Dr. Cook. A speck in the distance began to assume dimensions. Presently, it was recognizable as the tug bearing Mrs. Cook and her two daughters, Quickly the tug, game alongside, and, while the heavy swell running around her fenders against the plates of her big mister, Dr. Cook clambered nimbly down Jacob's ladder and within concern for the cameras trained on him, made a rush for his wife. For the moment, he even missed the children, who stood a few feet away, until his wife-silently led him to them. Then, as he lifted his youngest daughter to his shoulder, the silent, watching crowd that lined on the rails of the Oscar II broke into a storm of cheers. Brown, positive, patient, taciturn, Hi. Cook endures the business of being a hero with courtesy, but no eminence; as he stood beside Bradley, his backer, the contrast was unparent. Bradley looked the typical man about town, barbered, tailored, polished, immaculate and indifferent. Cook a little ill at ease, smiled continually in an qdd sort of way, as a man wholly sure of it, but not so certain of the impression he was making. It was a good impression, though here as abroad, for the crowd liked his simplicity, which seemed to carry conviction. As he stepped ashore, it was not noticeable that no representative of the nation the state or the city was there to greet him. Bird S. Coler, president of the borough of Brooklyn, had welcomed him on the Grand Republic for that borough; but the City of New York sent no official representative. A. Judey, N. S.—Commander Robert H. Peary, will accept no invitations to receptions and no public honors until the question of the discovery of the North Pole has been decided by scientific authorities. This he made known in the following statement which he gave out for publication: "In kind advice of General Thomas Hibbard and Horatio L. Bridgman, president and secretary, respectively, of the Peary Arctic Club, I wish to express my thanks to my friends for their kind offers and invitations, and also beg to say that I have decided not to accept any invitations to receptions or any ovations until the present controversy is settled by competent authority." Commander Peary supplemented this briefly. He was asked when the public was likely to get a decision on this subject, and he replied: "I do not know, but what I have to say will not be very long delayed. Whether my statement will be issued in one week or two weeks depends on circumstances. "Eleven times I have left Sydney for the north," said the commander. "Once I brought back the largest meter ever found; the last time I brought back my farthest north record; and this time I have brought back the North Pole." When the Roosevelt lay at the city what an eager throng of sightseers visited the ship and went through her from stem to stern. Souvenir hunters carried away everything possible, and many valuable records and data belonging to Professor McMillan were lost. The missing books are of immense value and cannot be replaced, but the authorities are issuing a public appeal for their return. REFUSED TO SAVE WIFE FROM PRISON. Cleveland Brewer-Would.

Max Fickel embezzled $533.76 from state of Berths Bosnhardt while she was guardian to the woman. Fickers scored Fickel because he did not has the amount.

SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1909. FORTIFYING THE CANAL Government to Spend $7,500,000 On Defenses at Panama. Washington, D. C.—When the Panama canal is completed, it will be defended by one of the greatest systems of fortifications in the world. A reporter saw the sketches and the plans for the defenses for the greatest engineering work of history. It was learned that the plans for the forts and other defenses of the canal were carefully gone over by Secretary of War Dickinson and Major General Bell, chief of the general staff of the army, during their visit some months ago. The locations on which forts will be erected were inspected with great care and the general plans of the fortifications of the canal discussed at length and from every angle. The plans, which later were begun by engineer officers of the army, have been in process of formation ever since. "These plans are very comprehensive and provide for an outlay of more than $7,500,000," a war department official said. The plans contemplate the expenditure of about $4,000,000 at the Pacific mouth of the canal and about $3,500,000 on the Atlantic side. The plans for the forts on the Pacific include heavy batteries of 12-inch guns on the small islands lying off the mouth of the canal for ten miles. In addition to battries on these islands the plans include forts at Ancon and San Juan, respectively, on each entrance to the canal. The battery at Ancon would be adjacent to Balboa, the new name for the port to be located near the place where the canal will empty into the Pacific. It is proposed to construct another great fort at Pedro Migue, six miles inland. The great locks of the canal will be located at this point, and this will be for their immediate protection. At Culebra, a point half way across the canal, the plans include the establishment of a large military post, which, under the present plans, would cost $500,000. The fortifications for the Atlantic mouth of the canal are to be erected at El Boco point, just across from Colon, and will be equally extensive. TO DIVIDE CALIFORNIA. People of Southern Part of the State Want Chance. Washington, D. C. — The recent threat of a body of citizens in California to establish another state within California's boiler, because of dissatisfaction with taxation method, has attracted the attention of officials here. The United States constitution provides that "no state shall be formed or erected within the jurisdiction of any other state; nor shall any state be formed" by the junction of two or more states, or parts of states, without the consent of the legislatures of the states concerned, as well as the congress." This constitutional provision, together with the manner in which California was carved out of other territory, is pointed to as reasons why such a threat would likely never reach more definite form. It is not the first time that the question of the division of California has arisen, for taxation was a problem that started such an agitation as long ago as 1849. At that time during the constitutional convention at Monterey, there was talk of overthrowing the northern influence in California; then a territory, and so to make possible an ultimate division of the state, in case the southern ones of paidepe sq oj paidepred life. Not long before the outbreak of the civil war there was renewed talk of division of the state, and there have been meetings in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara county and elsewhere at various times in a sporadic effort along this line. OPERA SINGERS BLACKMAILED. They Have Been Paying Money to Escape Being Hissed. New York City—Detectives have been retained to break up a organization of men who are asked to have netted a considerable income from grand opera singers who, prefer a plausion to hisses. Humors several seasons old that certain opera singers employed persons in the audience to applaud them, were given credence by the managements of two opera houses when they declared that such singers had been the victims of blackmail and that whatever money they had given was more to prevent being hissed than to obtain applause. According to several well known singers they had been approached by members of this band, who had plainly informed them that unless they paid liberally for applause, their singing would be hissed. Experience had shown that those who did not pay were hissed. The managers declare they will break up the practice. 573.561 Allens for America. Washington, D. C.-A net increase of 573,561 in the population of the United States by the arrival and departure of aliens was scored during the last fiscal year, as against an increase of 209,867 the previous year. There was a falling off in immigration from 782,870 to 751,786. U. S. Treasurer Bestoms Washington, D. C.-United States Treasurer, Charles H. Treat sent this resignation to President Tatt to take effect in October. Mr. Treat has been treasurer since July 1, 1905, being promoted at that time from the office of the collector of internal revenue at York City. GOV. JOHNSON IS DEAD Chief Executive of Minnesota Passes Away. DEATH FOLLOWED OPERATION "Well, Nora, I Guess I'm Going; We Have Made a Brave Fight," Last Words of Governor Johnson. Rochester, Minn.—Governor John A. Johnson, three times elected governor of Minnesota, a candidate for the democratic nomination for president of the United States in 1908, and looked upon by many throughout the country as the probable democratic national standard bearer in 1912, died at St. Mary's hospital here following an operation last week. Governor Johnson's life hung continually in the balance until the end came. So frequently did his condition change alternately for better and then for worse, that his physicians, hopeful, but none too optimistic, were able to say at no time since the operation was performed that the governor had more than an even chance for his life. When the governor had breathed his last, Mrs. Johnson, who was at her husband's side totally collapsed. Toward the end the governor re- ```markdown ``` GOVERNOR JOHNSON. vived and raised himself several times to pat his wife on the cheek. His last words were: "Well, Nora, I guess I'm going; we have made a brave fight." Few men in this generation who have risen to eminence achieved it after overcoming so many hardships in early life as did John Albert Johnson, governor of Minnesota. The youthful struggles of Abraham Lincoln alone are to be compared to the early years of Governor Johnson. Governor Johnson was born July 28, 1861, in St. Peter, Nicollet county, Minn., of Swedish parents. At twelve he was compelled to leave school, just as he had acquired the rudiments of an education. His family needed support; there were younger members of the family crying for food; his father was ill and his mother had to take in washing to help support her brood. As a boy John Johnson set bravely out to support his family. Though his formal education in the school at St. Peter was halted, his self-education never stopped. When through work he read all the books in the village library. A students at all times, with the self-balance and the self-control of the student, a wide reader and thoughtful, he went through years of hard toll as a grocery and drug store clerk. Later he was a railway time keeper in the days When the great transcontinental roads were pushing through the forests of Minnesota. At the age of twenty-two he never had owned an overcoat. Two years later he was forced into the editorship of the St. Peter Herald. Five years later he was secretary of the state press association—eighty per cent republican—and In three years more he was president of the organization. He had married in 1894 Miss Elinore Pheston, a drawing teacher. Twice Governor Johnson ran for DIVORCE FOR VANDERBILT. Like Father, Wm. K. Vanderbilt, Jr., Will Separate from Wife. New York City—William K. Vanderbilt, Jr., brother of the Vanderbilt cup for automobile races, of his wife, formerly Miss. Virginia Foir of San Francisco, have signed a separation agreement, Mrs. Vanderbilt now returning from Europe to America with her two children, Murrel and William K. Vanderbilt III. It is expected that the separation will be formally announced as soon as Mrs. Vanderbilt reaches New York. Efforts in Mrs. O. H. P. Beltmont, mother of Mrs. Vanderbilt, and Mrs. Herman O. Bricht, sister of Mrs. Vanderbilt, will divert the separation were unsuccessful. the state senate, and was defeated, Four years after his last, defeat he was elected to the legislature and served through two-sessions. His career, even at that early time, was notable for the leadership of his party in an unsuccessful fight for an increased tax on the gross earnings of trallways. In 1904 Governor Johnson ran for governor and accomplished the seemingly impossible feat of overcoming a republican plurality of 161,000 and winning by 8,000 votes. For the succeeding term he was reelected, receiving a plurality of 77,000 in a republican state, with a republican legislature back of him January of this year saw the beginning third term. The record of progress made in legislation while he was governor is a long story. A state expert tax commission was created. The steel trust was forced to pay taxes on $190,000,000; whereas before it had paid only pn $22,000,000. The 2-cent law was put through against the united opposition of the corporate interests Governor Johnson could not be bought. Sleeping car companies were taxed, a modern mortgage tax measure became a law, a reciprocal demurrage laws were enacted and enforced, a free staee employment bureau was formed, and as a rap at the combination which controlled the marketing of binder twine, of which Minnesota uses much, a state binder plant was established and its product sold to the farmers at cost. Railway passes were abolished, domestic insurance reforms were enforced by the governor and his friends, and Governor [Image of a man's profile] OF MINNESOTA. several cheek ing; w who loved it dressings t John brahman armed to Johnson. July 28, county, twelve school, iments needed mem- er food; her had supports. Johnson later took leading participation in national insurance reforms. The whole secret of his wonderful career may be summed up in two things: He was remarkably close to the people; he was honest and had common sense. He was tall, thin and had a story that his career in citizen military never altered. His face was intense, comely, but indelibly marked with the cares of a boy. In the campaign of 1908 he was choice of a large part of the democratic party for the presidency, and conservative interests supported him against Bryan. Had he lived he would have probably been the democratic standard bearer in 1912. Lieutenant Governor Eberhart was sworn in as the successor of Governor John A. Johnson. DRINK CAUSED DESIRE TO BURN. Roy Kennedy Confesses to Starting 13 Fires in Six Weeks. Nowata, Okla.-Hoy Kennedy, in an alleged confession to the county authorities here, is said to have admi- tured that he is responsible for thirteen fires at Nowata during the last six weeks. Kennedy said: "When I have drink in the fire, I have other desire than to burn something." Nowata has sustained two hundred thousand dollars' loss by fires very recently. New Japanese Ambassador to U. S. Tokio, Japan.—Official announcement as been made of the appointment of Y. Uchida, former minister of foreign affairs and now ambassador to the court of Austria, to succeed Takahira, Japanese minister of Washington. Washington, D. C.-Mr. Uchida is spoken of at the leagion as the leading diplomat of Tokyo, and is especially versed in international law and political science. He is about 45 years of age. Bishop Seth Ward Dead. Tokio, Japan—Bishop Beth, Ward of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, died in Japan. The bishop arrived in Kobe last month on his regular tour of Inspection of the Methodist missions of Japan, and he was taken ill shortly after his arrival. Last week he was reported as gradually stinking, and the fatat termination of illness was not unexpected. No Wine at Tall Banquet. Jackson, Miss. The Photogrant Pastors Association of this city has decided to protest against serving wine or any alcoholic beverages at the banquet to President Taft on November 1st. STORM SWEEPS COAST At Mobile, Streets Were Flooded By Wind Driven Waters—Many Washouts on Railroads. Memphis, Tenn.—With lines of communication still interrupted and with practically no information whatever from any but the larger cities and towns, it is now, known that the equinoxial gale covered all the coast country from Florida to Texas, extending with its full force as far north as the Alabama boundary, through southern Mississippi and Louisiana and up the river as far, as Natthez and Vicksburg, Later, the storm turned northward with diminishing force, reaching Jackson, Miss., giving Memphis a touch of its tall and passing on to Nashville and the north. It is now established that none of the great cities in the path of the storm suffered any appalling disaster, though, of course, they were all damaged, to some extent. There were four lives lost at New Orleans. Jackson, Miss., reports the killing of two men, who were crushed under a failing building. At all these places and at other localities of less importance there was destruction of property. But as to the interior country the greatest apprehension has been entertained and from all that area there has been absolutely no information. From points in southern Mississippi and along the Mississippi river comes strong confirmation of serious destruction. Damages were wrought at Vicksburg, Natchez, Johnson and McComb City, and it is ominously stated that the storm swept over the timber country of south Mississippi with cyclonic force, felling the trees that constitute the wealth of that section. It was through this same area that tornadoes of recent years have passed, carrying death and destruction. Information from Jackson is to the effect that the storm had force enough to damage the new and the old capitol buildings, than which there are no staucher structures in the state. At McComb City the railroad buildings were injured by, the wind and freight cars were lifted from tracks, among the best information obtainable. It is possible to aver that the sensational rumors of destruction in the city of Natchez, Miss., by fire, following the hurricane and flood, are without foundation. FOREIGN MONEY FOR THIS COUNTRY. Hundreds of Millions of Dollar Are Coming From Europe Washington, D. C.—"Hundreds of millions of dollars are in England, France and Germany awaiting investment in American railroad securities as soon as the investors can be assured of absolute federal regulation." This statement was made by Commissioner Franklin P. Lane of the interstate commerce commission, who has just returned from a trip of nearly three months in Europe. He visited England, France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy, and studied the railroad situation in all of those countries. "Men of money abroad," continued Commissioner Lane, "are satisfied that America is on the eve of a phenomenal era of prosperity, and are ready to invest their money in any stable enterprise in this country; but what they want is some assurance from the government that their investments will be protected in a fair way. They would like to see the capitalization of our railroads hedged about by federal legislation, so that the purchaser of stock would be assured of getting what he paid for. With the enactment of a law to prevent overcapitalization, American railroads would have no difficulty in obtaining in Europe all the money necessary for their development." The new tariff law of August 5 late does not apply to the Isthmian Canal zone, according to a decision given by Acting Attorney General Wade H. Ellis, to the secretary of war. The Canal Zone is not one of the "possessions" of the United States within the meaning of that term in the first clause of the tariff act, says the acting attorney-general, but rather is a place object to the use, occupation and control of the United States for the construction, maintenance of a ship canal connecting the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific. The effect of this decision will be to continue the present system by which the Panama government collects duties on importations. Senor Rios, a republican deputy of Barcelona, Spain, states that one hundred and twenty schools in Barcelona were closed and would not be reopened without the approval of the mayor and the parish priestess. He declared also that there were over three thousand persons in custody of Barcelona charged with participation in the recent voting, in that city. The public schools of the fireboroughs of Greater New York unpaused with fifty thousand children unable to gain admission for the full course. W. H. Maxwell superintendent of schools, estimates there are six hundred and seventy-eight thousand applicants for enrollment. The sixty thousand who are left out will be compelled to attend half sessions. As the strain of the St. Francis led Banner, played by a crass band of forty Highlanders died away the Roman Cathoic priest at Aberdeen, Scotland, read the marriages, uniting Miss Anita Stewart, master of Mrs. James Henry Sims of New York, to Miguel off Brandon son of the pretender to the Wiggee throne, Denouncing the connecting Horner's name with his assss and charging that his wife's divorce has grown out of his ent refusal to embrace Theosophy Major J. P. Hanson, president Central of Georgia railway, she has the Georgia superior court his answer his wife's petition for divorce being practically every charge brought by Theosophy Major Hanson stamps some of these charges in "unqualifiedly and absolutely true" while others he forms "freely and absurdly untrue." On the whole he charges that Theosophy broke up his home. J. P. Morgan, Jr., was elected to the late E. H. Harriman's place on the board of directors of the National City bank. By Wall street the election is regarded as one of the most significant of the week's financial developments, presumably indicating that harmonious relations exist between the Morgan and the Kukulcan Loeb-Standard oil groups of financiers. Added weight was given the event because it followed so closely upon the recent reports that the Morgan interests were about to take an active interest in the governments of the Harriman roads and that the younger Morgan was slated as the ultimate successor of Mr. Harriman in the command of the Union and Southern Pacific systems. The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific expoion entered its last quarter with every cent of its floating indebtedness paid. An important archaeological discovery was announced in Mexico City by Professor Ramón Mena, who headed a government expeditor to Oruroba in the state of Mexico, which has uncovered a buried city, of great antiquity. A pyramid similar to that uncovered at San Juan de Toothsacal has been exposed. The pyramid is sixty feet in height and measures two hundred feet square at the base. The reimals indicate that the city was built and occupied in the time of the Toletecs. Captain Natharton of the steamboat Comedian reported three different off-bubbling from the surface. The Gulf of Mexico, one hundred and sixty miles southeast of Galveston Soundings showed a depth of 5,000 feet. The spring comes from an extension of the oil bearing strata of the Beaumont field.

From the thousands of devices submitted the department selected eleven, asked the inventors to furnish twelve thousands of meals and to begin an official test on September 15. Each device will be tested for one week in a number of post offices and in the railway mail service. Fifteen companies mining-coal in the Coal Creek fields in Tennessee filed a complaint with the interstate commerce commission, charging that the Southern Railway company discriminates against them in the rate on coal as compared with those accorded operators In the Appalachian Tom's Creek and Black Mountain districts of Virginia. It is urged that the differential of 80 cents in Knoxville given on the Coal Creek coal should be maintained in shipments to South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and other southern points when passing through Knoxville. To points in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia reached by beaver field through Morristown. The company claimed that the same rate applies beyond that junction, the ferential to that point of steet of 25 cents, in favor of the Creek field. The rates in the plants are also made the same in the plant. The const and goodness of the undertake to arbitrate the Pacific north pole costly property should Cook request its assistance.

Illustration JAN 17 1808 190 The undesignated Treasure of the State of Georgia, hereby acknowledges that it has received from the Royal Secretary of Darien, in the following described Knights, issued: Dear Regiment and Company of the City of Elizabethton, Georgia (Troop of Darien Company) 1740, in connection with the sale from Darien Records (No. 1) 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 8th, 1897 . ARENTS engaging in eighty-six different occupations send their boys and girls to my care, but there are not eighty-six different kinds of boys and girls. There are children in whom are bred the traits of over twenty nations; but there are not as many as twenty different kinds of pupils. In fact, as I look them over, I think well of what the little Roosevelt boy said when a lady expressed surprise at the president's sending his son to a public school; she asked him if he didn't meet all sorts of boys there, and he replied: "My father says there's tall boys and short boys, and good boys and bad boys, and there ain't any other kind of boys." Thatclassification of boys I heartily accept; for girls, I should say, "There are tall girls and short girls, and silly girls and girls with sense, and there aren't any other kind of girls." Even this simple analysis, however, furnishes enough elements of danger in the various associations to which children are thrown in public schools, at the time when they are "first out of hand," as the expression is, and begin to take their own places in the social organism. Their whole training ought to be directed with reference to their ability to maintain themselves in the world as it is organized at the present time. To do this, as Dr. Washington Gladden says in speaking on the education of the people, they "must be fitted to become social integers, not social ciphers, each one trained to be a somebody with a strong personality and opinions of his own, and each able to maintain himself in the struggle for existence." Morally, everyone is as much a part of society as physically he is a part of the world's fame, and the earlier a child learns to adapt himself to the social order, to hold fast the good that comes with his fellows and to repudiate the evil, the sooner he can live successfully the community life we are forced to live in our present evolutionary stage. Signaling to Mars By William C. Peckham, of Adelphi College, Brooklyn, N. Y. HE proposition to signal to Mars, made by an astronomer, connected with one of our most famous observatories, has received much attention from the daily press and many of those not familiar with astronomy. It seems to the writer that some things have been overlooked which would render the experiment difficult, if not impossible. Since Mars will at opposition be above the horizon of any place only in the night, it will be necessary to provide artificial light for the flashes to him. This in itself will be an enormous undertaking. Yet it can be done. The atmosphere of the earth is able to absorb 40 percent of sunlight; so that in a clear air only 60 percent of the rays of the lamps can pass beyond our atmosphere, and still less in the vapor-laden evening or night air. The effect of the refraction of the air would be to render indistinct the outline of any object, and thus to confuse the lights. One professor, not of astronomy, happily, suggests black cloth laid in a pattern on a wide plain. It raises a smile. How can black cloth be seen on a plain in the night? As I said, Mars will be above the horizon only in the light at or near opposition. Hence a Martian will look at the dark side of the earth, and see only its blackness. Seeing black cloth under these circumstances would be like seeing a black man chasing a black cat in a dark cellar. Such a suggestion could not have originated with an astronomer. Prof. Moulton, in his "Astronomy," page 327, says: "When we see Mars the best, the earth is 'new,' with respect to Mars, and invisible from that direction. The newspaper talk of communication between the earth and Mars by imaginable means is utter foolishness." The language is strong, but seems to some to be justified.

Philos Philosophy and Flirts By Winifred Black STAID college professor has arisen in a horrified community and declares that one thing, that was the matter with Harvard students is that they don't flirt enough. "That," says the staid professor, with oh, such a roguish twinkle in his ficked little eye, "is the reason the Vassar girl isn't just right—she doesn't flirt enough." Go on with you, professor; arrah now, it's joking ye are, and not one of us can be fooled by it. Harvard boys don't flirt—well, you go and ask any of the merry, merry maidens in any of the scintillating sextets what they think of a Harvard boy as a giddy flirt—and you may change your opinion, professor. And as for the Vassar girls. The most outrageous flirt I ever knew in my life was class president at Vassar, and the way she could sit out under the stars and talk soul affinities to a little, knock-kneed, Latin professor one evening, and play the banjo and sing "Love Me Like I Likes to Be Loved" to a Harvard senior the next, was really almost a-startling. Flirt? Why, any boy or girl worth the name can flirt, and does flirt; that's one of the things they live for. Take one of those studious, calm-eyed college girls with you on a little trip in a party of maiden ladies, professor. She will talk Schopenhauer and Kant to you till your head swims—but you just notice the sudden gleam of interest in her eye when some little shiny-haired junior with loud socks and a college pin happens along. She'll giggle just as easily as if she'd never gone beyond simple fractions—see if she doesn't. Flirting isn't a matter of brains, professor. It's a matter of temperament. You can't kill the coquetry in a born flirt with all the colleges that ever had a curriculum. I'm glad of it. Are The G It Is.

The Goad of Poverty It Is Needed to Drive Genius to Its Consummations By A. Dembit E look before and after and pine for what is not." The life of the person earning only a living need not be of the deadening, prosalic sort, even though the work itself may be grinding and uncongenial. One must create one's own resources, among which can be diversions-both mental and manual. These will stimulate even a halting endeavor and also even a faltering ambition, both crutches of most-approved pattern to carry the gifted man up the Olympian palisades. Our friend has been cooking corned beef and cabbage for many decades, now he would prepare dishes fit for the gods. He should have had himself trained in fine cookery twenty-five years ago, but he may yet produce a dish that will astound the world. Such accidents have happened. The goad for genius and for the gifted is poverty. Think of what poverty has done for the world as a stirrer up of energy! In its guise of a boot it has awakened the dreamer, who got on the job and did things. It's poverty that makes the world go round, not money. Some friendly spirits who when young were fond of scribbling are now of considerable wealth. They are enjoying life to the limit. They dine sumptuously nearly every day—some days they're off the provender—but, anyway, with leisure, glad clothes galore, and yachts and automobiles, life with them is one long, sweet pace, but they have produced nothing by which posterity shall rank them with Shakespeare, Wagner, or Raphael, and this fact does not seem to worry them. A This company is duly chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia, and has complied with all requirements of the State insurance department, therefore all policy holders are protected with all the safeguards that the strict insurance laws of this State seek to protect its citizens. Its affairs are directed and managed by Negro men of the city of Savannah of leading standing, and whose character and reputation are of such as to command the respect and confidence of all the people of that community.

With the exception of early spring hatched pullets it is probable that there is as much clear money in chicks hatched in July and August as in those hatched at any time in the year. The pullets make the best of summer layers, the cockerels, are ready for market at a time when prices are at their highest and there is no easier or cheaper season for hatching young chicks than those two months, says a correspondent in National Farmer and Stockman. Perhaps I should have said "raising" instead of "hatching". During those two months, it is true, the breeding stock if yarded is likely to give eggs with low fertility and vitality, but once the chicks are started most conditions favor them if they have plenty of shade. It raised in brooders they need little heat and can be on the ground about all the time, which is the only place chicks ought to be at this season. It raised with hens they can be given to them in large flocks. The range furnishes more feed than at any other season and animal feed is abundant. The flocks can and should be moved to corn fields, meadows (if shady), pastures or open wood lots and the chicks will grow to chickens on less feed and care than at any other time. It is remarked by an Eastern paper that capital is not afraid of proper regulation. Nevertheless, retorts the Louisville Courier Journal, it would like to see a bill of particulars before any regulating is done. BOOKS FOR SAILORMEN. "Treasure Island" Their Favorite, With Dumas in Second Place. Travelling libraries have been installed in many merchant vessels by a society which has interested itself in purveying that sort of pabulum for sailors. They are open to all the seamen, each man being allowed to draw one book at a time. The captain of each vessel records the books the sailors have read and have liked best, and his reports are sent in to the headquarters of the society that provides the literature. The Bookman gives the following sample of one of these reports. The books indicated were the three favorites of each of the seamen named during the trip of the vessel from New York to Foochow: VALUE OF SHADE FOR POULTRY. In many parts of the country means for affording relief from excessive heat must be improvised as they are not naturally available. Where the poultry keeper lives upon a place having woods or abundant hedgerows his work is very greatly simplified. For instance, under these conditions, if he, with the advent of warm weather, will remove his fowls to the shelter of the trees or hedges he will find that they will grow faster. We know from our own experience how welcome, upon a hot summer's day, is the shade, and what is true of ourselves is equally true of our fowls. If they are placed out in the open and exposal all day to an excess of sunshine, they have the same feeling of discomfort that we experience under like conditions. Consequently the effect is seen in retardation of the development of the body, and sometimes in loss by death. Moreover, under these circumstances there is a lessened activity on the part of the fowls. We have only to watch them in the open fields to see that they cower, during the greater part of the day, under such small shade as is available, whereas those having the shelter of trees or hedges are active and happy. They seem more or less constantly engaged in seeking natural food, and in short are living under conditions which must tend to their development and to the profit of their owner. My advice, therefore, is that wherever possible the benefit of the shelter which nature has provided be given. Under these circumstances there should have taken place, even earlier than this, a removal of the coops or brooders, or of the colony houses in which the growing stock is accommodated, to places which will give them abundant shade or at least protect them against excessive sunshine.—Con Michigan Farmer. No man should play practical jokes unless he is a good loser. Gavannah, Georgia The Farm The Brood Mare. Caring for the brood mare is no hard task if a grain of common sense is used. The mare should not be worked too hard, although a dally useful exercise is advisable. She will be better off if she is given something to do during the period that she is carrying the colt. — Farmers' Home Journal. It is a good plan never to have any idle ground in the garden. As soon as one crop is harvested spade up the ground and plant something else in the place of it. Keep the ground at work. You know the old saying, "Satan always finds some work for idle hands to do." It is about the samer with the ground in the garden as with the hands. It is not growing something useful it will be growing something harmful. Better seed it yourself than be content with what will come spontaneously.—Farmers' Home Journal. --- Bain Crows and the Potato Bug. Iain Crowd and the Potato Bug. F. D. Maize, of Dickson, Tenn., who is an experienced gardener and potato grower, says that the rain crow is the only bird in the country which will destroy the potato bug. This bird somewhat resembles the common dove, both in size and color. Unfortunately, Mr. Maize says, this bird is becoming extinct, and unless protected by rigidly enforced laws, will disappear, he fears, within the next few years. A pair of them nesting about his garden the present year has devoured thousands of the Colorado beetle, while all other birds have scorned the potato patch menu with a vengeance. Separating the Seves. A great deal is said of the necessity for separating the sexes, some insisting that it should be done as soon as sex can be determined. In Asiatics it is not often necessary until the chicks are pretty well grown. In bowls of the Mediterranean varieties separation must be made quite early. In American varieties it depends upon the stock and the stage of development of the individual cockerels. Frequently the removal of a few of the cockerels disposed to annoy the pullets makes it possible to keep males and females peaceably together until well along in the season. In many cases the separation can be made early as well as later, the chicks being divided into small lots anyway, and it being just as easy to separate by sex. — Farmers' Home Journal. Black Leg. Dr. David Roberts, Wisconsin State veterinarian, says: "Black leg is a disease that very much resembles anthrax, incurable and fatal. The symptoms are very much the same as those of anthrax, excepting the animals may live a few days longer with anthrax than with black leg. "Black leg only affects younger animals, while anthrax affects both. Perhaps the strongest symptoms of black leg is a gathering of air or swelling underneath the skin of the affected animals. This usually takes place a few hours after the animal becomes infected and in tapping upon the swelling it sounds as if there was air underneath the skin. "This swelling may be located on the, thighs, neck, shoulders, breast, hock joints, flank or rump. There is no treatment for black leg-excepting a preventive. This is done by vaccinating the balance of the herd with black leg vaccine, which is a very successful method of preventingsame." Work of the Dairy Division. Prof. Webster, chief of the dairy division of the National Department of Agriculture, says that his division has conducted an experiment in making some 5000 pounds of butter under varying conditions, and carrying it for storage for several months at different temperatures. The conclusion reached is that light salting and low temperature with the use of sweet cream give much the best results for storage butter. Further experiments with an additional 2000 pounds of butter are now in progress. Suggesting that the butter makers should take kindly to the work of the government, Prof. Webster replied: "Yes, they do as a rule. We have 'butted in,' as the saying goes, between some of the butter makers and the creamy owners on the one hand and the markets to which they ship on the other. The butter as it comes in the large cities is being studied and the results reported to the makers. At first this work was looked upon somewhat askance by the butter makers, but they soon found that we were helping them and helping also to establish confidence between the butter maker and the butter merchant. During the past year a thousand creameries have been assisted in this manner, many of them to their material advantage. The Dairy Division has also introduced a method of easily determining the water content in butter. Such determination a matter of importance to the maker and the dealer, but the old method was expensive, difficult and required several hours. The new method is very cheap and takes only about twenty minutes of the time of a man of average intelligence. "We think we have made considerable progress in demonstrating the feasibility of making high prices, im- ported types of cheese in this country, in showing what can be done in keeping milk for long periods without preservatives, in investigating the work of milking merchants, which is now a practical institution and in working out plans for various dairy, creamery, refrigerating and other farm buildings—which we are glad to furnish upon application—and in enforcing, the regulations requiring sanitary renovated butter." Figure the Cost of Production. My opinion is that there are few farmers who know what it costs them to produce a bushel of corn, wheat, oats, barley, potatoes or other farm crops. It would be an advantage to the farmer if he did know just what a bushel of these various products cost him to produce and deliver in his local market. Why does not the farmer make a greater effort to learn what his crops cost him to produce, the same as a manufacturer learns what it costs to manufacture a hoe, shovel, plow, carpet or piece of cloth? Many farmers have never spent time in thinking or planning about this subject of the cost on production. The principal reason why farmers do not pay greater attention to the cost of growing a bushel of corn or potatoes, is that they seem to think that they are producing it at the lowest possible cost in any event, and that it would be folly in trying to learn the actual cost of production. This is not good reasoning, for if the farmer knew what it cost him to produce these products, and he found that he was producing them at a loss, he could stop growing those particular crops, that paid him no profit, and confine himself to those crops which do pay him a profit. But there are other reasons why farmers do not give this subject more attention. One is this: The farmer finds that the cost of producing a certain crop one year might vary greatly the next year. Excessive drouth one year or excessive rains another year, frosts or the variations of prices, would make such changes one year from another that it would discourage the farmer from attempting to learn precisely what it cost him to produce any certain crop. It is my opinion and the opinion of many, that larger profits could be made by farmers if they would make a greater effort to get a larger yield per acre by enriching the soil, by giving extraordinary cultivation, by drainage and other improved methods, rather than to attempt, as many do, to make up for a small yield per acre by cultivating a larger territory. —Fruit Grower. Stringy Cream and Milk Excessive bacteria is, of course, the real cause of the stringy cream and milk frequently complained about. Touching this matter Hearn's Dalryman says: The books say but: little about stringy cream, but a good deal about stringy or ropy milk. If the milk when first drawn shows no roiness or stringiness, but after standing twelve to thirty-six hours, develops a thickening and stringy appearance; there is no question but what bacteria are the cause of the trouble. There are many kinds of bacteria which produce this condition, but it is enough for our present purpose to say bacteria without going into the special forms which the bacterologists have discovered. Very frequently the milk is seeded with these bacteria from the water used in washing and rinsing the pails, cans and other milking vessels. This suggests at once that these milking vessels should be thoroughly sterilized before being used. To do this they should be subjected for some minutes to live steam or to absolutely boiling water—simply hot water is not enough, it must be boiling. Pour into the can and then cover and allow the steam to kill everything that has life that may be in the seams or on the sides of the vessel. Another source is in the stagnant pools in which cows love to wade and the grass and weeds through which they travel. In this care, bacteria gets upon the legs and upon the udder and flanks of the cows and during the process of milking some of them are dislodged and fall into the milk, where they rapidly multiply and in time produce a stringy character of the milk or cream. Still another source may be in the dust of the stable, which falling into the milk pails seeds the milk with these offensive bacteria. In either of these cases the remedy is, of course, to avoid the lease. Brush the udders and flanks of the cows before milking and then dampen them so that the loose hair and clinging dirt will not fall into the pall. It is sometimes the case that one cow in the herd produces milk this objectionable character, butting it with the herd milk seeds whole mess with these bacteria would therefore be an excellent to keep each cow's milk separated a day or two and thus assemble one or two or more cows are responsible for the two and if they are take special care prevent anything telling from buffers or flasks into the milk pot.

A stag and its antlers almost as inseparable in the mind of the sports man as in the mind of one to wahoo. deer stalking is nothing but a name. Yet there are profly only hornless varieties of the family Cervidae, but not a few members of the great red deer group are found to have been denuded by nature as well as by ac- ident of the crowning glories of their race and sex. Stags without horns are called Hummie stags, and they are far from being the helpless creatures one might reasonably have imagined them. They have been, known to fight and to conquer, heavily antlered stags of their own weight. The appendages known as antlers are so far from being universal among the cervine tribes, that naturalists prefer to rely upon other characteristics in their definitions of the several families, and groups. But a hornless stag is so far an exception that the system of judging the merit of the stalkers' spot by the character of the head and the number of the tines or points is certainly the best that could be devised. Many years ago an antler with fifteen points was dug up from an Irish bog. Assuming an equal number on the antler that was missing, the mighty hart to which the horns belonged would have been a stag not of twelve or thirteen, but of thirty points. Such prizes are not, however, nowadays likely to fall into the lap of the Scottish deer stalkers, still less will they be able to send to the stuffers such magnificent examples as those which may be found in many an old German schloss. The continental deer have always been more heavily antlered than the British, a fact which may partly be accounted for by their having access to much better feeding than they are able to procure in Scotland. But remembering that heads of eighteen and twenty points have been killed in this country, it seems quite reasonable, that any head with tines in excess of the "royal" should be distinguished by a special designation. There is some difference of opinion as to what constitutes a royal hart. Strictly speaking the head should not only possess "brow," "bay" and "tay," and three on the top, but these last three—the "sur royals," as they are called—should form cups in order to qualify the head as "royal." The more generally accepted proposition, that a royal head is a head of twelve tines, is, however, also the most convenient in the awarding of honors where honors are due.—Country Gentleman. - No Coal Bill To Pay. "Well, I think I'll heat me coffee for dinner," said a big laborer on one of the many buildings now being constructed in Chelsea a few minutes before noon the other day. And he proceeded to do so without the aid of a fire or even the use of a match. He took his bottle from his handbag and with it went over to the woodsy contrivance in which mortar was mixed. He put about half a shoreful off sand in a corner of the mortar bed, having previously scraped that part of the bed dry and clean. When this laborer took a piece of lime about as large as his two fists. He pushed the lump of lime down into the yielding sand, put his bottle with sand to hold it in position, and was ready for the important part of the job. Dipping about a pint of water from a cask near by, the laborer poured it on the mounted sand easily, allowing it to percolate through the coarse grains. Putting on a little more sand to hold the bottle in its upright position, he went back to his work. In ten minutes the noon whistle blew, and this laborer went to his fireless heater, took from it his coffee boiling hot in a bottle that had at no time been in danger of breaking from the heat, and proceeded to enjoy his homely but hearty meal, all unconscious that he had performed a very interesting experiment in Nature's chemistry.—Tit-Bits. Glasgow's Population Decreasing. Glasgow's population is decreasing. The chief sanitary inspector of Glasgow says in his annual report that there was a decrease of 1,132 in the number of occupied houses in 1908 as compared with the total in 1907, representing a population of 5,551 persons. They had for the first time in Glasgow's recent history taken a step backward with regard to their total population. Since 1873—when the increase of population was only 23 over the number of persons residing in the city in 1872—Glasgow had steadily forged ahead at the rate of 9,550 persons added to the population annually until this last year. No adequate answer could be given as to whither the people had gone. The total; actual loss; for the year 1908 seems to have been over 12,800 persons—Westminster Gazette. The Preacher's Advice.

Eighteen months ago Colonel Noyes died on his honeymoon. The young widow sent her bridal costume to a convent in Bloomsbury, where four nuns spent a year embroidering it. The altar frontal is eight feet long and four feet deep, and it is designed in three panels. One of these panels bears an allegorical likeness of Colonel Noyes, represented as a medieval knight. The arms and mottoes of Colonel Noyes and the widows' family are embroidered over the panels. —New York Press. Divorce in England, it seems, is a luxury not always attainable by the poor, and Lord Gorell, has lately been pronouncing, upon the injustice of this. The poor, he says, should have equal facilities with the rich, dissolving the marriage tie. He closes one case which had come under his own notice of a man who pinched and hoarded twenty years, to get enough money to escape from a domestic relation, that was intolerable. Lord Gorell suggests that to a limited extent, subadoption in divorce and matrimonial cases should be conferred upon county courts, in order that the poor, may have a better chance to have cases of this nature heard.—New York Tribune.

How would it be to wake up in the morning, after spending a considerable portion of the night before at a manufacturers' dinner or at some other social function where modern concoctions are served without regard to the treacherous internal workings of man--how would it be to wake up and silk across the floor, take up a board and partake of a luscious breakfast of bread and fresh honey Imprical?

The possibilities of the situation are unlimited. Mr. McIntosh has never bothered the bees, as they have never bothered him, and the bees have been working for nearly a year filling up the vacant space.

How to Help the Pastor When summer is over, and the first heats of the fall are past, with the crisp air and longer evenings, renewed activity begins in church life. Pastor and people have had their vacation, and are settling down again to work in earnest. Every one can help the pastor by always being in the pew at the morning and evening services, if possible, and by faithfully attending the prayer meetings. Far more than most people think, they build up their church by prompt and punctual attendance whenever the doors are open. To visit other churches is a great temptation, but the duty of the church member and his family is, in the first place, to his own pastor and his church home. The pastor is helped, too, by every one who praises him, by every one who comments favorably on his sermons, and by every one who does not make unreasonable demands on his time. When one hears of a signally successful pastor, one may be sure that he ministers to an earnest and faithful congregation. —The Christian Herald. We Are Grateful. We feel very grateful to those of our subscribers who send on hand us their subscription as soon due. These believe fully in the Golden Rule. We know too, that there are others who would do likewise, but are not able at the proper time, but who always do their duty. We feel grateful to them also. There is another class that causes our collector to use much shoe leather and give nothing but promise. This is the class that makes it hard for business men. We would appreciate it very much if our subscribers would pay promptly, and for those who do not want the paper longer to notify us as soon as their time expires. This is the honest way to act.

It is useless to send us articles unless the name and address are attached, not for publication, but as a matter of good faith. St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and School These institutions located at Harris and Habersham streets, have been, and are still, a power for good in the community. Abhorring ostentation of any kind there is no blaze of trumpets of whats being done in this little church in God's Name and for Christ's little lambs through the medium of the Sunday school and St. Stephen's Kindergarten and Primary School. The services of the church are conducted in a reverent and dignified manner, the hearty congregational singing being a stimulus to strangers who are always welcome. As there are no rented pews in the church, visitors can sit wherever they wish. It would take too long in this brief article to enumerate the different ways in which St. Stephens moulded a healthier sentiment in church affairs. She has not only created a higher standard for church entertainments, but in a quiet way brought others, who used to hoot and jeer, to recognize the importance of Christmas and Easter and to properly commemorate them in honour of Him who came to be the world's Redeemer. In spite of the fact that the church has but a few members so to speak, on account of continued removals from the city it is selfsupporting and free of debt. The sermons of the rector, Archdeacon Bright are noted for their incisiveness, simplicity and brevity, so that those who attend the services at St. Stephen's do not spend all day in church, but have some time to themselves. It seems most natural that there should be a school in St Stephen's rectory for it was in that historic building that the first public school for colored people was held in Savannah. There are persons living today who can testify to that fact. It is no new thing therefore, for St. Stephen's Church to be associated with the education of the colored people. In 1813 the present rector and his wife established the first kindergarten for colored children in Georgia, and one of the first in the South. Since that time it has grown into a kindergarten and primary school, the children being taken to the third grade inclusive. During the school term fully 120 children are in attendance, children of every creed being represented, and the liberal mindedness of the man at the head of the work is shown by the fact that there is no obligation on the part of the children to attend St. Stephen's Church. There are few young men and women of note, in Savannah, who did not learn their first letters in this modest little school where was laid the true foundation upon which they have so wisely built that they occupy positions of trust and honour. As long as Archdeacon Bright is at this head of the school parents may be assured that their children will receive the same thorough training for which it has been famous. The school maintains a sowing and kitchen garden department in which the girls are taught sowing and the rudiments of Domestic Science. The school rooms are equipped with the most modern appliances and are as neat and attractive as can be found anywhere. Parents desirous of giving their children the proper start would do well to consult, Archdeacon Bright, 313 E Harris St. Opening of St. Benedict's School (Gaston and East Broad Streets.) St. Benedict's School will reopen next Friday Oct 1st. The school needs no recommendation. The efficient work accomplished in the past, especially in the last year, has won the praise and the admiration of all those who have sent their children. St. Benedict's School imparts to the children not only a thorough elementary education, but it also gives a solid moral training. It forms the character of our little ones and prepares them for the battle of life. The school is under the management of the priests of St. Benedict's Church, and the teaching is given by the Franciscan Sisters. The good Sisters will spend day after day in the humble class rooms. They do not work for any worldly interest, but theirs is a work of devotion and of love to the children under their care. Their noble task is to make our children champions of all that is high and noble, and to make them Christian men and women of the future. The sixth grade will be added to the course of studies this year. Over a hundred children frequented this school last year. I is expected that all the old pupils will come back on Oct. 1st, and there is room for about thirty other children. The priests who wish to send their children to St. Benedict's School are requested to send them there next Friday between 9 and 11 o'clock, when the teachers will be in the school rooms and will take the names of the pupils, appolint them to their respective grades and places and distribute the different books. For further particulars apply to St. Benedict's Recory 518 East Gordon Street. St Philip Dots. Sunday was everything but a pleasant day, rain all day and part of the night, but notwithstanding, endowment day was a success in attendance and in a financial way. The program arranged for the day was carried out to the letter. Rev. Lindsay preached at 11:00 a.m from Matt. 10:42, subject, "All avenues reward promised for small things." This was one of the most eloquent as well as consulting discourses to the christian that was ever delivered in this church. We would dwell more on the subject, but space will not allow. At 3 p.m the Sunday School primary department had its exercises which was one of the best for years. At 8 p.m the literary program was very good beyond the most sanguine expectation of the Sunday School officials. As- sistant Superintendent; W O Castlebury was master of ceremonies. The following ladies and gentlemen read papers on various subjects: Miss Hattie Hardwick, Mrs. S J K Waring, Mrs. M B Harris, Messrs. Louis Liggian, David Moses and W O Castlebury. The singing by Mr. J B Montrie and Misses Green, Galloway and Hudson was a treat to the audience. On account of the incomplete collection on the part of quite a number of children not reporting on account of the bad weather, the report from each class will be given in next week's paper. The following services will be held on tomorrow: prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m, preaching at 11 a.m, Sunday School at 3 p.m, A C EL at 4:30 p.m, preaching at 8:30 p.m. St. Benedict's Church.

Styles has been in bad health for several months. His wife preceeded him in death the first part of the years He leaves a number of children and relatives. Mr. Floyd Styles of this city is one of his sons. The host of friends of the reverend all over the state regret his death. Mr. Jones' Death Mr. William Jones died shortly after one o'clock on Thursday after being seriously ill. The funeral will take place on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock from Mt. Zion Baptist Church of which he was a faithful deacon. Mr. Jones was also a member of Savannah Lodge of Odd-Fellows and of Past Grand Masters' Council.

ORGANIZERS Men Sunday Club. The program rendered at the Men's Sunday Club last Sunday was simply a continuous flow of delight and inspiration. Only one participant was absent and rain was the cause of that. Notwithstanding the threatening weather there were about one hundred and fifty persons present. Middleton's band gave three classy numbers. The corner solo, "Rocked in the cradle of the deep" by Mr. Middleton, accompanied by the band, was entirely out of the ordinary and was loudly applauded. Mrs. Leola Jordon Wright was in excellent voice and charmed everyone with her rendition of the "Kock of Ages." Miss Wright is possesse of a voice which promises much and already besides natural ability shows care and training of a high order. Mr. Hart's cornet solo was heartily received. Miss Anna May Williams was perfectly delightful in her execution of the piano forte. Prof. L. B. Thompson's welcome address was timely and to the point, setting forth easy reasons why the Sunday Club should have the cooperation of the entire city, and what great and useful things could be accomplished for our people. Short talks were made by Mr. Harris Gordon, Prof. Grant, and Dr. Williams. A board of Governors will be installed to look after the government of the Men's Sunday Club. It is thought that this plan of management will be the best to maintain interest. Program for tomorrow as follows: Selection Club The Rainbow Outing On last Friday night the Rainbow Pleasure Club entertained many guests with an outing at Styles Park.

There is a colored millinery store in Savannah, there are a good many colored people who do not know it. We hope that the readers of THE TRIBUNE will tell their friends. If half of the Savannah colored women would buy their hats at this store we could give employment to over twenty-five young colored women. Had you not rather help your own girls than those of the opposite races? We seek your patronage not because we are colored but because we can give you the same for your money as any other store of its kind in the city. 509 West Broad street. St. Anthony's School for colored children. will be opened on Friday Oct.1. The school is located at Fellwood, Bay street extension. The tuition will be free.

Reputation as EASTSIDE TEA & COFFEE STORE To Carry Freight by Air-ship. Germany will soon be leading the world in air-ship construction if the enthusiasm over the sport, or industry as some consider it, continues to be as wide-spread as it is today. The Zeppelin air-ship made several notable performances before its mishap; the Wright Brothers are urged to give some exhibitions with their aeroplane at Berlin; a company was recently organized to promote an inter-city aerial passenger service in Zeppelin machines; and now a dittable balloon for the carrying of freight is proposed. Professor Schuette, of the Technical High School at Danzig, Prussia, is the inventor of the new cargo balloon soon to be constructed at that place. The-gas bag will be 310 feet long, with a diameter of about fifty feet, and the skeleton frame is to have double diagonal wooden ribs instead of the customary aluminum ones. A car 120 long by twelve and a half feet wide will be carried, and the power for driving the propeller will be generated by two gas motors of 150 horse power each. By the substitution of wood for aluminum, the ability of the machine to carry weight is much increased, and, in addition to the equipment and crew, 4000 to 4500 pounds of freight may be taken. It is estimated that an average speed of fifty miles per hour attained by the new dirigible. -Harper's Weekly. LONG DISTANCE MARKETING. Rural Telephones a Business Necessity to Every Farmer. Practically every business man in the city has a telephone. No one who deals with his commercial colleagues would think of doing without the phone—it pays to have one. That's true in the city—but do you realize just how much more valuable the telephone is to the farmer? Those with whom he deals are often miles away. To him it is an absolute necessity, and to do without would be worse than uncomfortable. For instance, take the stock raiser who wants to sell some animals. What a job it is to drive them along the road, to find his man, and, if the bargain is not made, to drive them all back again. If he has a telephone, arrangements are made for a meeting, or even a dicker can be made over the long distance wire. What a relief it is to the farmer to be able to find out how prices are in town—to watch for a good market and sell at best advantage to himself. Yes, a relief, but not only that, a saving of money—real, fingling coin in his pocket. A glance at the sales reported this season gives an idea of the growing popularity of this great medium of comfort and convenience. The Western Electric Company, the largest manufacturers of telephones and telephone apparatus in the world, supplying the entire Bell system with appliances, reports having sold no less than 50,000 rural telephones in the past sixty days. Did Not Like the Tune. 5. A poor foreign musician was doggedly wrestling with his trombone outside a village inn. He knew that "The Last Chord" was somewhere in that instrument, but the latter seemed loath to part with it. At length the landlord appeared at the door. The poor musician bowed, and, doffing his cap, said, "Musig hath jarms," and smiled. "Well, not always," he said; "but try that tune outside that red brick house and I'll give you sixpence." Three minutes later the trombonist was back again, mud bespattered and forlorn. "You vos right," he said, slowly and sadly; "musig hath jarms not always—no. A mad yellow out ov dat house cama and me mit a brigg he knocked down—yes. He not like that tune—no. no," and he rubbed the book of his head. "I thought he wouldn't," said the landlord; "he's just done a month's hard labor for stealing a clothesline from a back garden."—Dundee Advertiser. Needless Wear of Roads. A county surveyor protests against the habit which many motorists have of doing the majority of their driving on the crown or centre of the road. This method of driving means that one portion of the road takes all the wear, and naturally of course gets worn into ruts and ridges. If the traffic would spread itself and make all that portion of the road from gutter to the top of the crown take a share of the wear, road surfaces, would last much longer and would require less frequent repair. In these days when roads are made almost flat there is no excuse for this habit of clinging to the crown, but where roads are made with a great deal of camber it is perhaps excusable, as driving on a continuous slope is the reverse of pleasant.—Gentle woman. How Elephants Sleep. In captivity elephants stand up when they sleep, but in the jungle, in their own land, they lie down. The reason, given for the difference between elephant in captivity and in freedom is that the animal never acquires complete confidence in his keeper and always longs for liberty. The Watchword. One newest department store in New York will have a bank of fifty elevators. Pass the Word Loss by One. The first time a man speaks in public he probably suffers more agony in a shorter space of time, than at any other part of his career. Young Franklinton felt the truth of this very keenly the other day when he found himself facing an audience of free and independent voters at an election. He had prepared, a very fervid oration in support of his father's candidacy, but for the first few moments he could do nothing but gasp. Then in response to an encouraging cheer, he began to speak, "Mr.-Mr. Chairman," he stammered "when I—when I left home this evening only two people on this earth—my father and myself—know what I was going to say; butnow—now—well now, only father knows." -Tit-Bits. Dermatologists are now agreed that warts are microbic in origin. It won't cost you a penny to reach out a helping hand to a great army of honest, hard-working and deserving men and women. Just your moral support will insure work, a living, and comfort which are now either partly or wholly denied them. How so? Come on, let's have a look. You've often been importuned and many have been commanded by advertisement or otherwise to "refuse to buy anything unless it bears the union label." Looks harmless on its face, doesn't it? It really is a "demand" that you boycott the products made by over 100 per cent of our American workingmen and women, who decline to pay fees to, and obey the dictates of the union leaders. It demands that you ask the merchant for articles with the "union label," thus to impress him with its importance. It seeks to tell you what to buy and what to refuse. The demands are sometimes most insolent, with a "holler than thou" impudence. It demands that you take away the living of this $0 per cent of American workingmen and women. Is that clear? Why should a small body of workmen ask you to help starve the larger body? There must be some reason for the "union label" scheme. Run over in your mind and remember how they carry on their work. During a discussion about working or striking in the coal regions, about 25,000 men preferred to work, they had wives and babies to feed. The union men said openly in their convention that if the employers didn't discharge these men they (the union men) would kill them. So they dynamited about a dozen homes, matained and crippled women and children and brutally assaulted scores of these independent workers. The big boys of the union men were taught to pound the school children of the independent men. How would you like to have your little girl shortly grown from the toddling baby who used to sit on your lap and love "Daddy" pounded by some big bullies qry her way home from the school, where she had gone to try and please Daddy by learning to read? The little bruised face and body would first need tender care while you ponder the Inscription writ deep in your heart, by that Master and Guide to all human compassion, "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren ye have done it unto Me." Then perhaps you would drop to your knees and pray Almighty God for strength in your right arm to strike one, manly and powerful-blow for baby's sake, even if you went to death for it. Helpless children were brought home, with faces black or bleeding from the blows and kicks of these fiends, teaching independent Americans that they must stop work when told and pay fees to the leaders of "labor." Thousands of men, women and children have been treated thus. From somewhere, Oh, Father of us all, we try to believe that You look with pitying eyes upon these brutal blows, cuts and scars on the many human bodies made in your likeness and image. They are beautifully and wonderfully made, each the dwelling place of a Divine Soul. Is it Your wish that they be crushed by iron shod heels, cut by knives or torn asunder by bullets and dynamite? May we, venture to think that a long suffering patience is extended in the hope that the men and women of America may some day wake to a realization of the awful cruelties perpetrated by this spirit of oppression and that, they will, some time learn the lesson that the "sacred gift of human freedom and liberty" was given by God and must be defended even to death itself. Our forefathers were used by the Infinite God to establish our freedom in 1776, and our fathers grave freely of their blood and treasure to establish the freedom of the black. Now again it seems we are called upon to protect our brothers and ourselves from that old time, spitfit of tyranny which comes up from time to time to force people to obey tyrannical rules and bend the knee of the slave. Wireless Medical Treatment. Treating a sick man on board the lonely Nantucket Shoals lightship by wireless is a new achievement. A few days ago, Capt. Boone, of the lightship, became sick and, as there was no doctor aboard, the crew did not know just what to do. A wireless message to the naval hospital at Newport brought detailed instructions from one of the surgeons there and the prescription that was sent was put up from the medicine chest on the lightship by the crew. The naval surgeon was kept constantly informed of the captain's condition and he began to improve soon after the long-distance treatment was begun. He was soon reported convalescent—New Bedford Telegram to the New York Sun. Although people realize that they can't live forever, dying is the last thing they want to do. In Wellston, Ohio, thirty Americans sought employment in a factory. They were seeking to earn food for their families. They were bombarded by rocks and pounded with clubs in the hands of union men. One of the injured, John Brannihan, was taken to the city hospital with a broken jaw, crushed skull and other cuts and bruises. He was the father of two children, and was thought to be dying. Perhaps he did. I don't know, but I sometimes wonder what the children said to Mother when "Papy" didn't come home, and how they and the little woman got any food, and how they could place their wrops before their own American fellows. Mayhap sometime some kind person will equip a home where the orphans and wadows of the victims of the Labor Trust may be cared for and fed. It would take a big home. It has been said there were 31 Americans, many of them fathers, killed in one strike, (the teamsters in -Chicago) and over 5000 maimed, many for life. That's only one "lesson" of these bullies. There are literally thousands of cases wherein your fellow American has been assaulted, maimed or killed by these men. The same work is going on day by day. Suppose you make a practice of picking out each day from the papers, accounts of brutality to American workingmen who prefer to work free from the impudence and tyranny of self constituted leaders (?) than to be always subject to their beck and call, pay them fees and be told by, them, when and where to work, and for whom. You will discover the same general conditions underlying all these dally attacks. In every case the workingman prefers to be free. He has that right. He then tries to go to work. He and his family sorely need the money for food or he wouldn't run the risk of his life. Many such a man has wiped the tears away and quieted the fears of a loving wife, left with a kiss on her lips, set his manly jaw and walked into a shower of stones and bullets to win food for the loved mother and babies. A good many have been brought home on stretches with blood oozing from nose and ears, some cold, while some gradually recover, and carry for life the prim marks of the "union label." They are your fellows, my friends, and yet you supilny read the accounts and say "too bad." Have you grown so calloused that you care nothing for the sufferings of these men who need food and these helpless ones who rely on the life and strength of husband and father? Let us hope that soon you may be moved by a just God to rise in your might and by voice and pen, by vote and right arm, you will do a man's part in protecting yourselves and your brothers from this onslaught on American citizens. This cruel warfare is carried out not always to raise wages, hurt, to establish union control, kick out the independent men and establish the 'label.' Unfortunately the "Labor movement which started many years ago honestly, enough, has fallen under control of a lot of tyrannical vicious "men of violent tendencies." There are too many to attempt to name. You can recall them. They include men who have planned the murders of miners, teamsters, pressmen and carpenters, shoemakers and independent, workmen of all kinds. Many of them have escaped hanging by an outraged public only because jiffers beating terror stricken and dared not defy them. Some have been pumiled slightly anthrax, including the principal officers of this nefarious crew are now under sentence to imprisonment but have agreed to pleases. Right here some apologist rises to political speech, thus of laboring men. "Bless your dear heart! it isn't the honest and real workman who does these, things, it is the excitable ones and the toughs and thugs who don't work except with their mouth, but have secured 'control' of too many unions. I don't even attempt to specify the criminal acts these persons have assisted, or winked at him, him, him, for destroying, free working men and forcing men to stay in the duluth" and hence under their control. "This newspaper'sIDE for the past 7 years contain almost daily accounts of the criminal, lawless and tyranny- An Irreparable Loss. "What has happened to me?" asked the patient when he had recovered from the effects of the ether. "You were in a trolley car accident," said the nurse, "and it has been found necessary to amputate your right hand." He sank back on the pillows, sobbing aloud. "Cheer up," said the nurse, patting him on the head; "you'll soon learn to get along all right with your left hand." "Oh, it wasn't the loss of the hand itself that I was thinking of," sighed the victim; "but on the forefinger was a string that my wife tied around it to remind me to get something for her this morning, and now I'll never remember what it was."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. The road to ruin is always kept in good repair. cal acts against American citizens and haven't told half the tale. Right here it becomes necessary to say for the ten thousandth time that there are scores of honest, law-abiding union men who deplore and are in no way responsible for the long infamous record of the "Labor Trust" under its present management, but they don't seem to stop it. The men who manage, who pull the strings and guide the policy have made the record and it stands, as made by them. Examine, if you please, the record of a string of members of the American Federation of Labor and you will view a list of crimes against Americans, stupendous beyond belief. They defy the laws, sneer at the courts, incite mobs and are avowed enemies of the peaceable citizens of all classes. This band welds an iron bar over their subjects and drives them to idleness whenever they want to call a strike or exact extra pocket money for themselves. Men don't want to be thrown out of work and lose their livelihood_but what can they do when the slugging and murdering committee stands always ready to "do them" if they try to work. The poor women and helpless children suffer and no one dares present their case to the public. They must suffer in silence for they have no way to right their wrongs, while the notoriety-seeking leaders carry out their work. These men cannot thus force oppression on the weak and innocent or use them to bring newspaper notice to themselves and money to their pockets unless they can "hold them in line." Therefore, with the craft of the fox and venom of the serpent they devise the "union label" and tell the public to buy only articles carrying that label. Smooth scheme isn't it? They extract a fee from every union man, and in order to get these monthly fees, they must hold the workers in "the union" and force manufacturers to kick out all independent men. Can anyone devise a more complete and tyrannical trust? If allowed full sway, no independent man could keep working in a free factory, for the goods wouldn't self no matter how perfectly they be made. Then, when the factory has been forced to close and the employees get hungry enough from lack of wages the workers must supplicate the union leaders to be "allowed" to pay their fines (for not becoming members before) and pay their monthly fees to the purse-fat managers of the Labor Trust. Thereupon (under orders) before the factory be allowed to start they must force the owners of the business to put on the "union label" or "strike, picket the works, and turn themselves into sluggers" and criminals towards the independent workers who might still refuse to bend the knee and bow the head. In the meantime babies and mothers go hungry and shoeless, but who cares. The scheming leaders are trained to talk of the "uplifting of labor" and shed tears when they speak of the "brotherhood of man," meaning the brotherhood of the "Skinny Maddens," "Sheas," "Gompors," et al., always excluding the medium or high-grade independent workers. Perhaps you have noticed lately that the makers of the finest hats, shoes and other articles have stopped putting on the union label. Naturally the Labor Trust managers have ordered their dupes to strike, idle idle, scrap, fight, slug and destroy property to force the makers to again put on "the label." But for some reason the buying public has been aroused to the insults and oppression behind it, and in thousands of cases have refused to buy any article carrying; what some one named the "tag of servitude and oppression." The bound and gagged union slave is fined from $5.00 to $25.00 if he buys any article not bearing the "union label." Nevertheless, he time and again, risks the penalty and buys "free" goods simply in order to help the fellow workingman who is brave, enough to work where he pleases without asking permission on bended knees from the bulldozing leaders who seek by every known method of oppression and hate to govern him.

If these poor wageworkers will thus brave fine men and slugging to help cut other men who seek to live a tree life under our laws and constitution cannot you, reader, help a little? Will you reach out a hand to help an independent workman earn food for his wife and babies? Or will you from apathy and carelessness allow him to be thrown out of work and the helpless suffer until they prostrate themselves before this stupendous and tyrannical aggregation of leeches upon honest American labor? The successor of Henry Ward Deecher in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, says: "Union labor hatred for labor burns like a flame, gats like nitric acid, is malignant beyond all description. But the other day, a woman representing a certain union visited many families in Plymouth Church asking them to boycott a certain institution. • • • Alas, this union woman's hatred for non-union women burned in her like the fires of hell." She was pitilessly, relentlessly and tirelessly pursuing the non-union women and men to destroy the market for goods, to ruin their factory and to starve them out. In the French Revolution only 2 per cent. of the French people believed in violence. The 98 per cent. disclaimed violence and yet the 98 per cent. allowed the 2 per cent. to fill the streets of Paris with festering corpses, to clog the Seine with dead boulders, to shut up every factory in Paris, until the laboring classes starved by the score. The small per cent. element in the Labor Trust which hates and seeks to destroy the large per cent. of independent Americans sends out letters declaring "free" industries unfair and tries to boycott their products. If they could bind every one it would bring suffering upon hundreds of thousands, immeasurable ruin upon the country, and land it absolutely under control of the men now attempting to dictate the daily acts of our people and extract from each a monthly fee. There are hables, children, women and honest, hard-working and skillful fathers who rely upon the protection of their fellows, when they seek to sell their labor where they choose, when they choose, and for a sum they believe it to be worth. Every citizen having the rights, privileges and protection of a citizen has also the responsibility of a citizen. The Labor Trust leaders may suavely "request" (or order those they can) to buy only "union label" articles, and you can of course obey if you are under orders. Depend upon it, the creatures of the Labor Trust will, upon reading this, visit stores and threaten dire results unless all the things bear "the label." They go so far as to have their women pretend to buy things, order yards of silk or cloth torn off and various articles wrapped up and then discover "no label," and refuse them. That's been done hundreds of times and is but one of the petty acts of hatred and tyranny. Let no one who reads this article understand that he or she is asked to boycott any product whether it bears a "union label" or not. One has a constitutional right to examine the article and see whether its makers are Labor Trust contributors and slaves or are free and independent Americans. I have tried to tell you something about those who are oppressed, vilified, hated, and when opportunity of feats are attacked because they prefer to retain their down independent American manhood. These men are in the vast majority and include the most skillful artisans in the known world. They have wives and babes dependent on them. These men are frequently oppressed, and have no way to make their wrongs known. They are worthy of defense. That's the reason for the expenditure of a few thousands of dollars to send this message to the American people. Remember, I didn't say my "excuse" for "fending it." The cause needs no excuse." C. W. POST Battle Crype, Mich. N. B. Some "parjor socialist" who knows nothing of the Russian Czarism of the great "Labor" Trust "will ask" right here: "Don't you believe in the right." --- "We've had the most tremendous fun!" cried two lads, running into the room where their mother was sitting. "I am glad to hear that," she said, with a smile, "And what have my little pets been playing at?" "Oh," explained one, "we've been playing at postmen, and we've been delivering letters all around the terrace." "That's very clear," said their mother, "but where did you get this letters?" "Oh, there was a packer of old letters tied, round with ribbon we found in your desk, and—" The rest is silence—Philadelphia Inquirer. Glass water-pipe, which, have a covering of asphalt to prevent fracture, are in use in some parts of Germany. Constant chatter wears away brain of certain workmen to "organize!" Oh, yes, brother, when real workmen manage wisely and peacefully, but I would challenge the "right of eyen a church organization when its affairs had been seized by a motley crew of heartless, vicious men who stopped industries, incited mobs to attack citizens and destroy property in order to establish their 'control of communities and affairs,' and subject everyone to their orders and exact the fees. When you see work of this kind being done call on or write the prosecuting officers of your district and demand procedure under the Sherman antitrust law, and prosecution for conspiracy and restraint of trade. We have the law, but the politicians and many of our officers even while drawing pay from the people are afraid to enforce it in protection of our citizens, and now the big Labor Trust is moving heaven and earth to repeat the law so their nefarious work may be more safely carried on. But You. Why don't you strike out and demand defense for your fellows? Put your prosecuting officers to the test and insist that they do, their sworn duty, and protest to your Congressmen and legislators against the repeal of the Sherman Anti-Trust law. Its repeal is being pushed by the Labor Trust and, some big capital.trusts in order to give each more power to oppress. Do your duty and protest. In this great American Republic every one must be feebulous of the right of individual liberty and always and ever resent the attempts made to gain power for personal aggrandizement. Only the poor fool allows his lib- Only the poor fool allows his liberty to be wrested from him. Some one asks "how about your own workmen?" I didn't intend to speak of my own affairs, but so long as the question is almost sure to be asked I don't mind telling you. The Postum workers are about a thousand, strong, men, and women, and don't belong to labor unions. The Labor Trust has, time without numbers, sent "organizers" with money to give "smokers" etc., and had their "orators" declaim the "brotherhood of man" business, and cry salty tears describing the fearful conditions of the "slaves of capital" and all that. But the "confidence game", never worked, for the decent, and high grade Postum workers receive 10 percent, over the regular wage scale. They are the highest paid, richest and best grade of working people in the State of Michigan and I believe in the United States. They mostly own their own homes, and good ones. Their wages come 52 weeks in a year and are never stopped on the order of some agent of the Labor Trust. They have savings accounts in the banks, houses of their own and steady work at high wages. They like their daily occupation in the works (come and ask them) and are not slayes, and yet, the Labor Trust leaders have done their best to ruin the sale of their products and force them into laziness and poverty. It would cost the workingmen of Battle Creek (four people and about 3000 others) from $100,000 to $200,000 a month in fees to send out to the leaders of the Labor Trust. If they would allow themselves, to become "organized" and join the Trust, Not for them, they keep the money, school the children and live "Tree." That's some comfort for white people. Once in a while one of the little books "The Road to Wellum," we put in the pages of Posthum. Grape-Nuts and Post-Postles, is sent back to us with a sticker pasted across it saying "Returned because it don't bear the union label." Then "we join 'hands' and 'shows' a hymn of praise for the discoveries; some one that our souls are not seared with, the guilt of belgian conspirators to help blind the chains of slavery upon fellow Americans, by placing 'added power' in the hands of the largest, most oppressive, and harmful trust the world has ever seen.

While excavating on the Lincoln Farm, preparatory to laying the foundation for the Memorial buildings now nearing completion, Robert H. Whitlow, one of the hands employed in the work, picked up a Spanish coin, bearing the date 1772. Not thinking of the valuable history which might be attached to this little coin, Mr. Whitlow took it home and his children have been using it as a plaything until last Monday, when Dr. W. E. Rodman called to wait on a case of typhoid fever in the family, and chanced to see it. From Mr. Whitlow he learned how he came in possession of it, and also secured permission from Mr. Whitlow to retain it and to bring the matter into public notice. The coin is well worn, and, from its every appearance, must have been lost a hundred years ago. It would do no violence to our imagination, nor yet strain a historical politit to assume that this same little coin was once the property of Thomas Lincoln, and that his distinguished son once made it a plaything as did the children of its more recent owner—Larue County Herald. WHERE THEY GOSSIP. "In Arizona it is considered healthy to mind your own business." "That idea wouldn't be at all popular among the Eastern health resorts."—Louisville Courier-Journal. A trained nurse says: "In the practice of my profession I have found so many points in favor of Grape-Nuts food that I unhesitatingly recommend it to all my patients. "It is delicate and pleasing to the palate (an essential in food for the sick) and can be adapted to all ages, being softened with milk or cream for bables or the aged when deficiency of teeth renders mastication impossible. For fever patients or those on liquid diet I find 'Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishing and refreshing.' "This recipe is my own idea and is made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for an hour, strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and a spoonful of fruit juice for flavoring. This affords a great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assimilate without any distress. "My husband is a physician and he uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders it many times for his patients. "Personally I regard a dish of Grape-Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone—well or slick." In any case of stomach trouble, nervous prostration or brain tag, a 10-day trial of Grape-Nuts will work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and in this way ending the trouble.

One cup of cold roast chicken chopped as fine as powder, a pint of strong chicken broth, a cup of sweet cream, one-half cup of bread or cracker crumbs, three yolks of eggs, one teaspoon of salt, one-half teaspoon of pepper. Soak the crumbs in a little of the cream; bring the broth to boiling point and add the meat. Break the eggs, separating the yolks and whites. Drop the yolks carefully into boiling water and boil hard; then rub to a powder and add to the soup with the cream and the seasoning. Simmer ten minutes and serve very hot.—Boston Post. Bamaquins of Lobster. One lobster, fresh or canned, one heaping tablespoonful of butter, four tablespoonfuls of cream or milk, one gill of fish stock or water, salt, pepper, paprika, one teaspoonful tarragon, vinegar, one tablespoonful of flour and yolk of one egg. Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour smoothly, then gradually add the stock and the milk and stir till it bolls and thickens. If cream is used, do not add it until the sauce has boiled and then been allowed to cool slightly. Next add the seasonings, vinegar and the beaten yolk of egg, and stir the sauce over the fire for a few minutes to cook the egg, but do not let it boil. Season it carefully. Put the meat from the small tips of the lobster claws on one side, and chop the rest coarsely. Stir it into the sauce gently, taking care not to break the pieces. Have ready some small china or paper ramaquin cakes. The paper ones, with a pale pink edge, look particularly dainty and effective for this dish. Put some of the lobster mixture in each case, heaping it up slightly, garnishing each with the tip of the shelled claw meat, and put the cases in the oven until the mixture is heated through.—New York Press.

If the inside of the cream or mollasses pitcher is rubbed on edge of spout with a little butter it will not drip. Always use a double boiler for custards and cereals. The loss of time in cooking is more than cqualled by impossibility of burning. An easy way to keep windows clean when the screens are in is to rub them often with a flannel dipped in alcohol.

"Col. McClure told this story at a Clover Club dinner in the old Belvue of Philadelphia. It was a story about the Spanish War. "There was a regiment, it seems, recruited from Conshohocken, Cinnaminson, Wawa and Manunka Chunk and the ladies of those Pennsylvania towns got together after the regiment's departure and made a lot of pajamas for the soldiers. Pajamas were a new thing in those days; smart, exclusive, and so forth; the ordinary man wore a nightshirt. "Well, these pajamas, in a half-dozen big packing cases went duly Cubawards, but no word of their arrival ever came back. The ladies waited about a month. Then they wired to the colonel, a genial, wholesouled Conshohockener: "Anxious to know if you got the pajamas last month." "The colonel had never heard of pajamas. He wired back: "Story is a lie out of whole cloth, probably fabricated by enemies to ruin me politically. Admit am not total abstainer, but never had pajamas last month or any other time."" —Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. Thoroughly Prepared.

Child a Mass of Dreadful Sore, Iching, Irritating Humor for 2 Months —In Terrible Plight—Disease Cured by Cuticura. "My six year old daughter had the dreadful disease called hives for two months. She became afflicted by playing with children who had it. By scratching she caused large sores which were irritating. Her body was a complete sore but it was worse on her arms and back. We employed a physician who left medicine but it did not help her and I tried several remedies but without avail. Seeing the Cuticura Remedies advertised, I thought I would try them. I gave her a hot bath daily with Cuticura Soap and anointed her body with Cuticura Ointment. The first treatment relieved the itching and in a short time the disease disappeared. Mrs. G. L.

ON HER WEDDING NIGHT. eks of Agony--Husband Arrested Held Without Bail. BRIDE POISONED ON HER WEDDING NIGHT. Dies After Two Weeks of Agony—Husband Arrested and Held Without Bail. San Antonio, Texas.—Messages received here indicate that the report sent to the Slate Department from Monterey, Mexico, relative to the suffering there is not an exaggeration of the real conditions. The latest reports puts the number of dead as high as 15,000 and the number of sufferers and homeless fully as many. There is a great deal of relief work to accomplish in Northern Mexico. In addition to the extremely heavy toll of lives collected, to say nothing of the immense property damage, hundreds of square miles upon which there once stood happy communities have been swept clear of both houses and crops. For the survivors there is nothing left to do but extend a hand in guest of alms. In consequence of the wide area affected the Mexican Government is called upon to shoulder a burden for which it is not prepared just at this juncture. The Government has been heroic in its efforts to relieve partially the distress which is now greater in the outlying sections rather than in the cities which have rail connection Anguish Greatest in Towns. It is in these smaller places from which the survivors must come on foot that the anguish is the greatest. Both women and children are starving. Many have died while awaiting the relief which the father, husband or brother set out to procure. For these people only the simplest kind of food will suffice. The Mexicans will find a great deal of nourish- OUR EXPORTS NOW That's the Total For the Last 120 Ye --Manufacturers' Big Share-- Share They Take in Export Washington, D. C.—The exports of American manufactures for the 120 years from 1789 to 1909, according to a report just made public by the Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Commerce and Labor, amounted to $12,000,000,000. Of this amount two-thirds were exported within the last twenty years, and one-half, or $6,000,000,000, within the past eleven years of the present decade. The total exports of merchandise from 1789 to date amounted to $46,000,000,000, of which 26 per cent. were manufactures. Steady increase has been shown in the share which manufactures form of our exports from 6.5 per cent. in the decade 1790-1799, to 37.6 per cent. in the decade ending with 1909. Iron and steel products were not recorded until 1790, when the value BRIDE POISONED ON Dies After Two Weeks of and Held W Parkersburg, W. Va.—A girl of fourteen years, a bride of fourteen days, was murdered, poisoned by her bridegroom, is the charge on which J. E. Sayre, of Richmond County, Va., was arrested here. She was Miss Blanche Wright. The allegation is that Sayre gave the deadly bl-chloride of mercury to his bride, with whom he eloped two weeks ago. He is said to have been under the influence of liquor and not to have intended to poison her. The child-wife, the daughter of a minister, died here in a hospital after horrible suffering lasting two weeks. Mrs. W. S. Taylor Dies After Worcester, Mass. — Mrs. Pauline Lapham Taylor, wife of Willard S. Taylor, prominent in the theatrical affairs, died of uraemic poisoning after an illness of only two days. Her death shocked friends here and in New York, Newport and Boston, where she entertained lavishly. Mrs. Taylor was a crack horsewoman. She defeated her husband in a race, taking three straight heats with her record pacer. Peeeler Patron, whose record is 2:09 1/2. ment in the dried or "navy" bean, and flour and meal do a great deal toward supplying them with sustenance. Mexican Consular representatives here and in other points of the State have issued appeals to relieve the suffering. A number of the Texas railroads and the express companies have agreed to carry free such supplies as may be sent to the relief committee at Monterey, which is now most active in distributing food to those places where help is most needed and which can be reached by railroad or overland transportation. $5000 Raised by Women. In this city alone more than $5000 was hurriedly raised by public subscription. Women of the city gathered supplies, both clothing and food, and rushed several cars to the border and into the capital of Northern Mexico as soon as railway transportation was restored. The Republic of Mexico also came with a hurried response to the first stories of distress. It is not sufficient, although the Mexican people were as liberal as finances and conditions would permit. For this the people of Monterey made grateful acknowledgment, but the need of succor is still great. Unless the United States, which has always been "liberal to those in distress," rushes to the assistance of her near and good neighbor across the border, the increase in the number of dead and the extent of the suffering in the flooded district will be frightful to behold. of these exports amounted to $117,000. The million-dollar mark was not passed until 1840, and from that time forward a steady increase was shown in manufactures of steel. Last year a grand total of nearly $200,000,000 of manufactures of steel exported was reached. The total value of manufactures exported during 1908 was $750,000,000. Of this amount Europe received approximately one-half, or $368,000,000; North America, $183,000,000; South America, $71,750,000; Asia, $71,700,000; Oceana, $40,000,000; and Africa, $10,000,000. The amount sent to Europe $97,000,000 was copper, $55,000,000 mineral oil, $47,000,000 manufactures of iron and steel, $29,000,000 manufactures of wood, $17,000,000 naval stores, and $14,000,000 agricultural implements. It was on the wedding night of the young couple that the young wife was poisoned. The girl's parents objected to Sayre's attention because of his alleged intemperance. They eloped to this city and stopped at a local hotel. The young woman instantly became deathly sick, and her husband is said to have left the hotel. The father was summoned, and the husband was not allowed to see his wife. For two weeks she lived in mortal agony and then died. When it was learned that Sayre was to leave town his arrest followed.

Captain Butt of Augusta Now a National Character. Augusta, Ga.—One of the most conspicuous figures and at the same time one of the most popular members of the presidents' staff on the trip across the continent, is a native Georgian, a man who began his career in an humble way in the Empire State of the South, and who has won his official spurs, so to speak, by a commanding presence and a will that knew no such word as fall. This man is Captain Archibald W. Butt, who was once a newspaper reporter in Augusta, Ga. He is now the president's military alde. Captain Butt is now with President Taft, and will visit Georgia with the presidential party this fall on the return trip to Washington. TO HARNESS TALLULAH FALLS. An 18,000-Horsepower Development is Planned for That Point. Columbus, Ga.-The Georgia and Alabama Industrial Index says, in its regular weekly issue: "The swift-descending water of Tallah Falls, whose picturesque beauty forms one of the greatest natural attractions in the state of Georgia, are soon to enter upon another phase of service to man, in addition to delighting his eye with their loveliness, they are, in the form of utilized and directed power, to administer to his wants. The power rights at these famous falls have been sold for $100,000, and an 18,000-horsepower development is planned for that point. The power will be transmitted through the mountains of northwest Georgia and on copper wires will race down to Atlanta as electric current, there to turn the wheels of industry. NO RECEPTION AWAITS TAFT. Columbus Consider's Proposed Stop Near Visit. Columbus, Ga.—Columbus is much interested in the suggestion that in traveling from Birmingham to Macon early in November President Taft change his original route and make that section of his journey via Atlanta instead of this city. Since the people here continue to refuse to recognize a pass-through as a visit or even a near visit, they would not suffer any keen disappointment if the president so shape his affairs that it will not be necessary for him to pass through this city at all. Such a suggestion would never, of course, be made to President Taft. It is probable that none of the city officials will go to the station, although if the president does adhere to his original routes and not travel via Atlanta, but through Columbus, it is presumed that he will not lack for a crowd at the station, as the colored Young Men's Christian Association, the Chattanoochee Valley Emancipation Proclamation Association and the Sons and Daughters of Heaven, and perhaps other negro organizations, will be out in force to greet him. TO BUILD SUBURBAN LINES. Cities in Southern and Central Portion of State to Be Connected. Macon, Ga.—Within the next week developments in the interurban railway movement promise many good things for the scores of business men here and throughout the central and southern portion of the state who have been eager, to gather assurances that the lines will soon be in operation. Those who are closely associated in the business enterprises state that by October 1 announcements from the general offices here will be made that will be received with a great deal of satisfaction. This will probably mean that the union of interests between the local street railway company, the interurban lines and the Central Georgia Power Company is so well planned that only the business formality of passing the boards of directore and the stockholders in each company will be the only remaining duty to be accomplished.

Douglas, Ga.-The offices of the Georgia and Florida Railway will be moved at once from this place to Augusta. This announcement was made by General Manager J. M. Turner. The shops of the road which have just been completed at a cost of $300,000 will remain here. WAR ON CATTLE TICK Dairymen and Live Stock Dealers Take ActivestSeps. Greensboro, Ga.—The dairymen live stock owners and citizens of Greensboro and Greene county had a meeting at the court house and discussed plans for the eradication of the cattle tick, which is the greatest curse to the development of dairy and cattle interests in the south. Hon. E. Copelan was elected chairman of the meeting and J. C. William secretary of the association. Among the Masons TO APPRECIATE WE MUST UNDERSTAND Masonry, to be properly appreciated, must be more fully understood by those who have been initiated, into her mysteries. To pass through the ceremonies of initiation in the lodge is but to receive the key by which to open the door to her sacred treasures. To enter in, participate in, and enjoy the rich stores prepared for those who have been, found worthy, is the privilege conferred upon everyone who is permitted to cross the threshold of the lodge. How few there are of our brethren who seem to realize this fact. They stand as if bewildered at the very entrance, and neither advance nor retreat. Years roll by, and they are still there immovable as the pillars which stood by the porch of the Temple of Solomon. If there is any Masonry in them, it remains as securely locked within their breasts as were ever the ancient archives within the receptacle of those two brazen pillars. We hope they are benefited by it, for it is certainly lost to everyone else. Let your light shine, brethren, even though it be with a feeble ray; it may prove a beacon for some benighted brother who is trying to escape from the darkness which surrounds him.—Orphan's Friend. In the Dutch lodges, the initiate is presented with two pairs of white gloves, one for himself and one for the lady nearest and dearest to his heart, and he is told that while we do not admit them to our lodges, we hold them in the highest esteem; as white is an emblem of purity, so we aim, by the white gloves, to convey the purity of thoughts and actions towards them. TO THE POINT. The Order of the Eastern Star has brought the noble women of our land to the front. Through their instrumentality the order, has assumed the proportions of a powerful organization. The Star of Bethlehem is the basis of its degrees. Its unostentatious charities are legion, and the Masonic and Eastern Star Homes which have been reared through its material support stand as monuments to its practical utility. It needs no eologist—the beauties of rhetoric and the powers of logic need not be invoked to show the wisdom, beauty or strength of the organization. Like the great Masonic institution, of which it is an auxiliary, its tenets are Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth, and it is speeding its way in the wake of civilization, and wherever Masonry has a foothold, wherever truth, justice, honor, virtue and religion exist and flourish, there will shine conspicuously the order of the Eastern Star. Link by link its Golden Chain is being lengthened, until it shall encircle the globe.—W. N. Young; F. C. Maryland. BROAD AND COMPREHENSIVE.. The Order of the Eastern Star is no merely local affair, and it is not confined to a single state, but it occupies a field of usefulness as wide as that of Freemasonry itself. All over this broad land of ours—in the busy commercial marts of the East, on the broad, windswept plains of the Middle West, in the mountain clime of the grand old Rockies, on the grassy slopes of the Pacific coast, as in the sunkissed states along the Southern Gulf, the glory of our Eastern Star shines with undimmed lustre. All over this broad land the golden links of the Order of the Eastern Star reach out, binding the wives, mothers, daughters, widows and sisters of Master Masons into one great, devoted sisterhood, whose chief desire is to pay the tribute of their love and labor at the same shrine as the Masonic brother, if I may be permitted to borrow from the words of our Ritual—and to work in unison with the brotherhood in the promulgation of the eternal principles of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth—Fannie J. Wheeler, G. M., Texas. The first three degrees of Masonry are a beautiful, a vivid, and a thrilling picture of human life. Every step is an illustrative type of man, his birth, his manhood, his old age and his death. There is no more striking similitude of man in this, world than is found in the beautiful and impressive ceremonies of symbolic Masohry. They bring man from darkness to the effulgent light of truth, and step by step trace his course through this life. He is led along the pathway of knowledge to a revelation of his duty to God, his neighbor and himself, in them he is reminded that in this world we are beset with temptations, must endure trials and be visited by affliction, and they point to a trust in God, a virtuous life and strength of character as the proper way to meet all trials, and vicissitudes. He is told of the undeniable fact of the mutation of all earthly things, that mortality rests upon all created beings, and taught that immortality is the spark of divinity that is within man—Exchange. Few if any of the railways of Brazil are self-sustaining, except with the help of government subsidies, and it is naturally difficult to secure freight reductions in the face of an annually recurring deficit. That there must be some readjustment, however, is apparent in many ways. The man who buys popularity generally gets stuck.
