STORM WRECKS KEY WEST
VOL. XXV.
Gulf Hurricane Hits Island City Causing Great Damage.
TROOPS ARE CALLED OUT
Vandals Loot City---Government Asked to Send Troops---Property Loss Runs Into the Millions.
---
Key West, Fla.—As a result of the hurricane which struck the southern coast of Florida, Key West is a mass of wreckage and the damage to property is estimated at $2,000,000. Martial law was proclaimed by the mayor and the Key West Guards patrolled the city. The United States government has been asked to dispatch troops here without delay to assist in patrolling the storm-swept area. Chaos reigned on every hand and few people remain in their homes, hundreds of which have either been totally wrecked or damaged. It is known that many received more or less serious injury; and reports are current that several lives have been lost, but these have not been verified. While the hurricane was the worst that Key West has ever experienced, the local weather observer announced that the entire east coast of Florida suffered terribly.
Of 100 local vessels in the harbor but five remained at anchor, the others having gone to sea or been washed upon the beaches. The streets along the water front are a mass of wreckage. Brick as well as frame buildings throughout the city suffered alike from the fury of the heavy wind and many miraculous escapes from death or serious injury have been reported. Besides the several score of residences, either totally wrecked or blown from their pillars, nine factories were partially destroyed. As soon as the wind had subsided vandalism began. The city police force was unable to cope with the situation and the mayor decided to take strengent measures, to suppress the looting, his proclamation of martial law resulting.
Havana, Cuba.—The most serious cyclone since the big blow of October 17, 1905, struck Cuba, causing extensive devastation through the whole western portion of the island. In the city of Havana many minor buildings were blown down or unroofed; almost all the trees were uprooted and five persons were killed, one by an electric wire and the others by falling buildings. "About twenty-five persons were injured.
The greatest damage done was in the harbor, where forty or fifty lighters, launches-and small flugs were either sunk or blown ashore. The total damage in Havana and Vienna is estimated at individual loss has been caused by the destruction of half the coal elevator conveyors of the Havana Coal Company at Casa Blanca, estimated at $200,000. It will be possible to raise the greater number of the wrecked lighters and other craft.
Communication with the interior of the island was .interrupted except with parts of Havana and Pinar del Rio provinces, in which the orange and other fruit crops suffered severely. The tobacco crop has not been seriously affected, beyond the washing out of the seed beds, which at this season of the year are capable of renewal.
SIMPLE LIFE A FAILURE
Colony in Europe. Becomes Entirely Bankrupt
London, England.—The famous "simple life" colony at Ascona, above Locarno, has become bankrupt, and its German grometer, Herr Aedenwoken-Hofman, announces that the sanatorium, chalets and hunts on "Monte Verita" are for sale.
This colony, which was started on the simple life plan about six years ago, was at first a great success. German, Austrian, Italian and other distinguished foreigners of both sexes went in for the simple life, but the fair sex always predominated.
Several duchesses, many baronesses and countesses, clothed in a kind of white sack, with bare feet and flowing hair, lived on wild fruits and vegetables, and took sun and snow baths. They sold their jewels for the benefit of all in the colony, and were the chief adherents and supporters of this simple life society.
The men, with their nowing robes and uncut hair, resembled Indian fathers. The views of most of them on social problems were too advanced even for the colony, and several of them were asked to leave.
MEXICANS ILL TREAT AMERICANS.
Crew of Fishing Schooner Relate Stories of Cruelty.
Pensacola, Fla.—Relating stories of injustice and cruelty on the part of Mexican officials, in whose custody they, remained for eight days without being given an opportunity of seeing the American consul or getting word from Colm Caitlin Joseph Schlease and the crew of the fishing schooner Caldwell H. Colt, reached here from Progress.
They were then released by the Mexicans, but the latter held the vessel on the charge of poaching. The men claim their vessel was caught in storm and that they put in under a dee to make repairs when seized.
MORSE DENIED NEW TRIAL
New York Financier's Sentence of 15 Years Sustained.
New York City—Unless the supreme court of the United States reverses the decision or the president of the United States interferes, Chas. W. Morse' one time ice king, coastwise steamship line organizer, banker and capitalist, will serve fifteen years at hard labor in the federal prison at Atlanta, Ga. After having been at liberty under $125,000 ball since June 17 last, he is back in the Tombs prison, where he contemplates the decision of appeals rendered sustaining the judgment of the lower federal court, which found him guilty in November last of violating the national banking laws.
There was solace in the decision of the court of appeals, however, in that only ten of the fifty-three indictments on which he was convicted were sustained, and on the strength of his counsel, Martin W. Littleton, will immediately carry the case before the United States supreme court on a writ of certiorari. To this end the United States court of appeals has granted a 40 days' stay of execution, and, pending a decision by the supreme court, application will be made to have the prisoner again admitted to Morse took the decision calmly, but he was plainly grieffried and perhaps surprised. He heard the news in the office of the United States marshal, and was almighty immediately taken to the Tombs, Mrs. Morse was with her husband in the marshal's office during the entire morning.
One of Morsse's keenest regrets at being forced to return to prison is the interruption of his beaver-like struggle to rebuild his fortune. Since his liberation under ball he had been reelected president of the Metropolitan Steamship Company, a New England corporation, and of the Hudson Navigating Company, operating a line of boats on the Hudson. He is credited with having discharged the bulk of his debts. From the big transportation lines that within the week elected him his president there was no official statement forthcoming after the decision. It is understood that for the time being, at least, the elections will stand.
WANTED TO GO TO JAIL
Man Made Bogus Money to Get Into Prison.
Cinclnattl, Ohio.—Confessing that he had made and passed counterfeit money, William B. Pettus, a former school teacher of Carter county, Kentucky, was sentenced by Judge Sater, in the federal court, to 20 months in Leavenworth prison. Pettus told the court that he entered a counterfeiting business because he wanted to get into jail "to keep from starving." During the trial it was discovered that Pettus had served a term in the Colorado state reformatory, and that he had been incarcerated in a Virginia insane asylum, after having tried to clean up a whole family with a half dozen razors, as he expressed it on the witness stand.
WILL BUILD AIRSHIP LANDINGS
Atlanta Church, in Erecting New Building, Prepares for Future.
Atlanta, Ga.—Anticipating that airships will be in common, every-day usage 20 years hence, the board of stewards of the Wesley Memorial Church, which edifice is rapidly nearing completion, adopted a motion instructing the building committee to so arrange the roof of the building that there will be no difficulty in adapting it to commodious airship landings.
Committee was requested to see to it that a large staircase runs all the way to the roof and that the electrical wiring be so installed that proper lights can be displayed about the landings, and wire taps will be convenient for the recharging of exhausted dry battles.
Cleveland Children In Europe.
Lausanne, Switzerland—Mrs. Grover Cleveland, accompanied by her daughters, Esther and Marlon, and sons, Francis and Richard, arrived here. It is understood that the children will be placed in a school here, and that Mrs. Cleveland will take up her residence nearby for an indinite period.
First Killing Frosts.
Nashville, Teen.—There was a killing frost throughout this section. Because of the lateness of the season the damage will be small. Thin ice is reported. Huntsville, Ala.—The first killing frost of the season fell here. The late cotton crop is believed to be damaged to a considerable extent.
Auto Only 3 1-2 Feet Lonn.
New York City.What is said to be the smallest complete automobile ever constructed has arrived here. It is the property of W. J. Durand of New Iberia, La., president of the Louisiana Automobile Club. It is 3 1/2 feet long, and 18 inches wide, most of the parts being made in France, by special order.
Train Ran Into Burning Bridge.
McNell, Texas.—Fireman O. J. Sutton was killed and eight persons were injured when an engine and, two cars of the Austin and Northwestern Railway express train plunged into a burning bridge over Watters Creek, near here.
THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1909.
Washington.
The commissions of several additional supervisors of the next census have been signed by President Taff and forwarded by director of the census, Durand, and to the appointees, Among them are Livingston F. Mr.Clellan, Stone Mountain, for the fifth and sixth districts of Georgia; James L. Michie, Darlington, for the sixth district, and Earnest, M. Dupre, Columbia, for the seventh district of South Carolina.
The National Geographic society, in response to a proposal from the Peary Artic club, adopted a resolution agreeing to join the American Geographical society and the American Museum of Natural History in requesting Dr. Ira Romsen, president of the National Academy of Sciences, to appoint a committee to examine a report on the Artic records, observations and data of Commander Robert E. Pearly and Dr. Frederick A. Cook.
Acting Secretary of War Oliver sent a dispatch to the commanding officer of the administration at Key West ordering him to render such assistance to the sufferers by the tornado there as may be required by the mayor in the direction of maintaining order in the city.
There was a small increase in the amount of excavation on the Panama canal over August, according to a dispatch received from the chief engineer of the isthmus. September excavations were 2,838,385 cubic yards, compared with 2,755,178 cubic yards in August. An increase in the amount of concrete laid during September is reported, but a small reduction in the amount of fillit placed in the dams, dams.
At the conference of Money Order experts of the postoffice department, to be held in Washington every phase of the money order system will be considered in detail, with a view to reducing expenses and increasing the efficiency of the work. The most important subject to be considered will be the suggestion that identification of the holder of a money order be waived and the orders be made payable at any money order office, thus making money orders practically currency.
With the object of having removed the charge now assessed patriotic persons who visit the tomb and home of George Washington at Mount Vernon, on the Potomac, the Mount Vernon Anti-Flee association has inaugurated a movement to have active steps taken in congress to secure an appropriation for the maintenance of the historic estate that it shall no longer be necessary to conduct Washington's home as a species of "museum."
As a token of friendship and good will, the North American colony in the city of Buenos Ayers is preparing to present to the Argentine Republic a statue of George Washington. The presentation, according to information to the International Bureau of American Republics, will take place at the Argentine celebrates the centenary of her indomitable There are probably a thousand American residents in the Argentine capital.
Although the governmental expenses are reducing, Postmaster General Hitchcock does not overlook the value of the cat in the postal service. He authorized an allowance to be made for the support of cats in the large offices of the country. The cost of their maintenance comes out of the annual appropriation made by congress for "miscellaneous items necessary and incidental to offices of the first and second classes." During the present fiscal year the department will expend approximately $135 for "cat meat." Cats are recognized by the department as employees, and so carried on the rolls. Throughout the country they are used in the various postoffices to minimize the depredations of rats and mice, experience having demonstrated that the annual destruction to mail and equipment caused by the rodents runs into an immense figure.
General.
Approximately $100,000,000 will be expended by the various iron and steel companies in the Pittsburgh district for new plants in 1910. Of this amount $15,000,000 will be expended by the Jones & Laughlin Steel company, $55,000,000 by the United States Steel corporation, $6,500,000 by the Republic Iron and Steel company, $15,000,000 by various smaller concerns and $6,000,000 by the Bethlehem Steel company.
The Protestant pastors of Detroit have agreed to apply to evangelization work—the Tammany method of electionering, known as "cart-tall campaigning," but automobiles will be used instead of the humber vehicles. The pastors will obtain machines of wealthy church members at hours when the owners are not using them. The ministers will ride to prominent street corners and give informal talks upon religious matters.
When Miss Anna Connor of Mexico Mo., was married to A. Coffman of Bartlesville, Okla., she received a most unique wedding present. A former admirer presented the bridal couple with a fine pig gayly decorated with bright ribbons.
A Swiss watchmaker of Neuchatel, who recently invented a watch for the blind, had scarcely placed his invention on the market than he was inundated with orders. The watch has no glass and its face is of enamel. The hands are invisible and are placed inside the case. The figures of the watch work automatically, appearing a little above the enamel face, as the hands pass underneath. A blind person can, with a touch of his fingers, tell the time in an instant.
ALL EUROPE AROUSED
IS ANOTHER DREYFUS CASE
King Alfonso Refused to Interfere in Spite of Protests of the Popo and the King of Italy.
Barcelona, Spain.—Francisco Ferrer, who was convicted of prompting the recent Barcelona rebellion, was shot in Montfuch prison in execution of the death sentence imposed upon him.
Professor Ferrer, Spanish educator and convicted revolutionist, faced the firing squad without flinching, and fell dead at the first volley.
The execution was in the face of the protests of Pope Plus, and King Emmanuel of Italy.
His execution is looked upon as the spark that will set off the revolutionary magazine and the life of King Alfonso is in danger. "Alfonso will pay with his life for the death of Ferrer"—that was the threat the revolutionaries held over the Spanish government—and Ferrer is deaf.
All Spain is aroused to the danger and the crisis is rapidly spreading throughout Europe. Protesting demonstrations were held all over Europe and in Spain an uprising is feared.
In Paris, in Rome and at many other points in Europe the Spanish consulates are under heavy guard. Moves against them have already been made by excited crowds.
The larger cities of Alfonso's domain are under a semblance of martial law and every available trooper is held in readiness. Extra guards surrounded the palaces and the military holds Barcelona with a firm hand. There the first outbreak is expected.
The death of the Barcelona school master, who was arrested on September 1, in a town not far from Barcelona, when he carried nothing more deadly than a camera and a notebook, has sent a tremor throughout the continent.
Not since the Dreyfus case has such interest been aroused in the fate of one man. The Ferrer'affair is regarded as a new Dreyfus case—in fact—and the firing of the shots before which he fell is taken as the signal for a war of factions in comparison with which the battle for the honor of the French army officer will appear as nothing. Spain will be riven by a bloody civil war if the threats of the revolutionaries are fulfilled. Italy is aroused almost to the same extent as Spain. Throughout the peninsula mass meetings to protest against the action of Spain have been held. In many points of France similar action has been taken. In Germany there have been demonstrations also.
The cry of the radicals is that Ferrer was condemned, not because he was a revolutionist, but because he founded a modern school whose teachings were opposed to those of the schools fostered by the Spanish government.
The daughter of the schoolmaster is hiding in Paris. From here she sent a pitiful appeal, against the wishes of her father, to King Alfonso, asking clemency. Her only reply was the news published of the execution.
INTERNATIONAL BELIEF FUND.
Recommended by the Peace Bureau in Session at Brussels. Brussels, Belgium.—The permanent international peace bureau at its session adopted a resolution, suggesting that the various governments of the world join in the creation of an international fund for the relief of sufferers in the event of the occurrence of great disasters and part of the world. The relief bad management of the funds subscribed for the relief of victims of the recent Italian earthquakes prompted the suggestion. A motion was also adopted favoring the interdiction of the throwing of explosives from airships in time of war.
U. S. SENATOR WILL BETIRE
Flint of California Quits to Provide for His Family.
Los Angeles, Cal.-Senator Frank P. Flint announced that when his present term of service expires on March 4, 1911, he will not be a candidate for re-election.
“If I were a rich man,” said Senator Flint, “I would like nothing better than to remain in the senate all my life. But I feel that I owe it to my family to get out of politics.
“My associations in the senate are very congenial, indeed; I have practically no opposition for a renomination and, the sole reason for contemplating-retirement is the urgent necessity of providing for my family.”
MADE FALSE CIRCULATION STATEMENT
Publisher Given Six Months in Jail by Judge Landis.
Chicago, Ill.-Roy Keator, publisher of a weekly newspaper, was sentenced to serve six months in the Bridwell by Judge Landis, in the United States district court. Keator was indicted on a charge of making false circulation statements to obtain second-class mail rates. He admitted that in order to get advertising he had represented the circulation of his paper to be-100,000, when, in fact, he had but 1,000 subscribers, and that he had placed many names on his subscription lists without authority. The periodical was an agricultural journal.
SOUTHERN RAILWAY REPORT.
Prosperity Returning According to Report of President Finley.
Washington, D. C.—A substantial increase is shown in the gross income of the Southern Railway Company during the tenure of annual report of the fifteenth annual report of President W. W. Finley. The report says the return of business from the low level of panic conditions of 1907 was slow, but substantial during the past year. The total gross income for the year was $17,737,699, an increase over 1908 of $3,890,793. The progress in the south indicated in the report, which shows that during the year 453 new manufacturing plants were completed. More than 70 per cent of the year's tonnage originated in the south.
PUT FLOWERS ON WRONG GRAVE
For Fifteen Years Woman Weekly
Decorated Wrong Spot.
New York City—"Please do not put any more flowers on my grave." was the message on a piece of cardboard, which Mrs. McDonald of Brooklyn found on the grave in Mount Olivet Cemetery, on which for fifteen years she had been placing flowers weekly. Believing that it was the grave of a dear relative, Mrs. McDonald was indignant and protested to the superintendent of the cemetery. He looked up the records and found that her relative was really buried some distance from the grave, which she had been so faithfully decorating.
Longest Balloon Flight.
Richmond, Va.—Winning the Lahm cup for the longest flight made in a balloon under the auspices of the Aaero Club of America, and breaking all speed records for long distance flights, A. Holland Forbes of New York and former Mayor Max Fleischmann of Cincinnati, landed in Chesterfield county, twenty miles south of Richmond.
Starting from the gas works in St. Louis, the distance of 731 1-4 miles was made in nineteen hours and fifteen minutes, at an average rate of 38 miles an hour.
Remarkable Mode of Sulcide.
Asheville, N. C.—Leaping from beside his watchful keeper, who was accompanying him on a walk, J. R. Giles, of Wilmington, N. C., an inmate of an Asheville sanitarium, jumped head-long beneath the wheels of a 15-ton steam roller and his head was crushed out of shape by the ponderous wheels of the machine.
Temporary aberation, for which Mr. Giles was being treated here, caused this remarkable mode of suicide.
Bandit at Bay Kills Self.
Chicago, IL—A fashionably-dressed bandit, who robbed the savings bank of D. M. Erskine & Co., in Highland Park, Ill., a village north of Chicago, committed suicide by shooting himself in the mouth, when driven to bay by an officer and posse of citizens.
Newsy Paragraphs.
Missing from his boarding house for about a month, and believed to be the victim of foul play, George House, in the employ of the Packard Land company of Pensacola, Fla., was traced to the jail of the District of Columbia, where he is serving a term of nine months for assault. When House dropped out of sight, diligent search was made for him. Among the more important features of the aggressive program adopted by the recent Chicago Convention of the National Women's Trades Union league were: State pensions for working mothers during sickness or disability, the eight-hour day for women workers and the elimination of night work, protected machinery, sanitary workshops, separate toilets, more women as factory inspectors and a minimum wage scale.
The deathed confession of Vice President Philip Allen, Jr., that he had forged notes to the value of $400,000, which he had borrowed from the First National bank of Mineral Point, Wis., threw the bank's depositors about its doors. Allen confessed after an inspection by federal authorities. He is now dying of bright's disease.
The will of Mrs. Nelson Morris, recently killed in an automobile accident in Europe, bequeaths nearly $400,00 to charitable institutions. Relatives get $300,000 more, and the remainder goes equally to the four children, Edward and Ira N. Morris, Augusta Rothchild and Maud Morris Schwab.
"The United States need not worry about prosperity," said Benjamin Gugenheim of the smelter trust, on his return from Europe. "Rather it should worry about a scarcity of high-grade labor and a possible famine in the transportation facilities." He was convinced that prosperity was coming on with a rush and that it would include Europe as well as America.
The Illinois food commission started a crusade against dealers deceiving the public with artificially colored and smoked fish, hams, bacon, sausage and other edibles. Examination showed that most of the "salmon" in the market was carp from the Fox river and other near-by streams. They were first given a bath of pink and then subjected to treatment in "liquid smoke."
Ruth Bryan Leavitt has announced her candidacy from the First Colorado district on the democratic ticket. As president of the Jane Jefferson club, she hopes to support the sup. port of the women voters, as well as many of the many of the republicans intend to nominate a woman in the same district.
NO.4.
Roosevelt Is Beaten—Judge Says That Panama Canal Deal Did Look Suspicious.
Indianapolis, Ind.—Judge A. B. Andersen of the United States court of this district dismissed the proceedings against Delavan Smith and Chas. R. Williams, proprietors of the Indianapolis News, who were resisting removal to the District of Columbia for trial under a grand jury indictment charging them with having committed criminal libel in publishing articles alleging that there was a corrupt profit of $28,000,000 in the sale of the Panama canal to the United States.
"I am of the opinion," said Judge Anderson, "that the fact that certain persons were called 'thieves' and 'swindlers' does not constitute libel per se. A newspaper has a certain duty to perform. As a former president has said, it is the duty of a newspaper to 'print the truth about it.' It is the duty of a newspaper to draw inferences for the people. "Now; there were many peculiar circumstances about the whole Panama cana business. I can't wish to匿住test reflecting upon anybody in or out of office, except such person or persons as I may name. The revolution in Panama, the circumstances concerning it, were unusual and peculiar.
"That man has read the history of our institutions to little purpose," said Judge Anderson, in concluding Lis decision, "who does not view with apprehension the success of such a proceeding as this to the end that citizens could be dragged from their homes to the District of Columzia, the seat of government, for trial under the circumstances of this case. The defendants are discharged."
PREAGHER RETURNS TO PULPIT.
One Week as Conductor Enough for Rev. D. H. Carrick.
Lawrence, Kan—Rev. D. H. Carrick, recently resigned from the pastorate of the North Lawrence Presbyterian church to become a street air conductor here, because he explained, "ministers were not, honest," and "that a man could not earn an honest living as a minister" has quit ringing up each fare in the presence of the passenger, after one week's service as an "honest conductor." He will go east to conduct evangelistic services.
Mr. Carrick had been the North Lawrence church's pastor only a very short time when he resigned and said wealthy men who control the churches made it impossible for their pastors to live honest Eyes, and that the pastors' wives were criticised if they wore good clothes at the congregation's expense.
TURNED UP TROUSERS UNHEALTHY.
Blamed for Influenza, Which Has Made Its Appearance in London. London, England.—Influenza Chas made its appearance in London in the guse of catarrhal infection of the nose and throat, usually technically and severe variety. A phylclan with one of the great London hospitals has suggested as one of the causes of the outbreak the habit of turning up the trousers. This fashion, he says, is responsible for many autumn coughs and colds contracted before the system has had time to become accustomed to the constant foot dampness which for every Londoner is a winter portion. The turned-up edges of the trousers become soaked through, and then act as wet bandages around the ankles.
SEABOARD MERGER.
Williams Talks of Consolidation of Lines.
Richmond, Va.—John Skelton Williams, upon his return from New York, where the reorganization committee of the Seaboard Air Line has been in session, confirmed the reported merger of the branch lines of the road with the parent system. The southern roads included in the Seaboard merger are:
The Atlanta and Birmingham Air Line, operating 237 miles.
The Florida West Shore, operating 70 miles.
The Plant City, Arcadia and Gulf, operating 19 miles.
The Catawba Valley, operating 22 miles.
The Tallahassee and Sotulern, operating 29 miles.
KILLING PRAIRIE DOGS.
Kansas City, Mo.-More than 750, 000 prairie dogs have been killed by J. W. Holman, the officially recognized United States-government poisoner of the pests in the southwest states, during the last eight months and Mr. Holman is not through is here now obtaining a new dose of strychnine.
"I am going to kill at least 000 dogs during the new months," Mr. Holman said, "rife dogs are a serious, per-southwest, especially in the government pays Mr. Holm one-half cents per head."

State Confronted by Estimated Deficit of $728,565.
NEW FISCAL SYSTEM NEEDED
Appropriations Are Made Year or More Ahead, While Money Is Collected
Atlanta, Ga.-The expert accountants employed by Governor Brown to look into the state's financial affairs have madeth eir report. This fairs have made their report. This gia is steadily running behind in its finances. The relation of outgo to income is far from being accurately adjusted. Unless its fiscal operations are speedily reformed, the state will get deeper and deeper in the hole.
The estimated deficit on January 1, 1910, according to this report, will be $728,566.50.
The bulk of the state's revenue does not begin to come in until the fall of each year. The tax books close on December 20, but tax collectors have from then until April 20 following to make their returns to the state treasury. Some counties invariably hold back remittances until even a later date.
This means that the state requires from twelve to sixteen months from January 1 of each year to collect the money to run the government during the year. The amount of kiting which the state must do to meet this situation would shame an impoverished bank clerk.
In an effort to get all the light possible on the situation, Governor Brown recently ordered a detailed investigation into the state's financial affairs. The contract was given to one of the leading firms of accountants in the south. After a thorough investigation of the state's fiscal operations and system of bookkeeping, they have made a report which Governor Brown has given out.
This report shows that for the year 1908 the state spent the sum of $81,878.68 in excess of its income for that year. For the present year the excess of appropriations over-estimated revenue is put at $232,208.14. In other words, the state treasury is now out $314,086.18.
The reason for this deficit grows out of the fact that appropriations are made in advance and on the basis of estimated revenue. The legislature usually counts on a certain increase in tax receipts growing out of the increased valuation of property. Sometimes the general assembly overshoots the mark. Then a deficit results.
As a matter of fact, the income received from the rental of the Western and Atlantic Railroad, from inspection of oil and fertilizers, and from special taxes, furnished enough to keep up the legislative, executive and judicial establishments. Then the governor is authorized to borrow $200,000 to meet casual deficiencies.
But there is never enough money in hand to pay the teachers of the state

Treasurer of the State of Georgia.
their salaries when due. As usual, they must wait until the tax returns begin to come in during December. To correct this situation, Governor Brown would have the constitution of the state amended so as to permit an issue of $600,000 of bonds to put the state on its feet.
RATE INCREASE ON GEORGI AROAD.
After Nov. 1, Passenger Fares Will
Be at Rate of 2.12 Cents
Be at Rate of 2 1-2 Cents.
Atlanta, Ga.—The Georgia Railroad will, beginning November 1 next, charge 2 1-2 cents per mile for transportation of passengers over its line instead of o thef 2 1-4-cent rate, heretofore charged.
Authority for this increase was granted by the railroad commission of Georgia by a unanimous vote.
The Georgia Railroad has made several attempts to have the railroad commission grant it authority to charge a 2 1-2-cent rate, but has heretofore been unsuccessful. In its petition it sets forth that a rate of 2 1-4 cents was unreasonably low, and not fairly compensatory; that the Central of Georgia, Atlantic Coast Line and other roads serving the same territory were allowed to charge the higher rate.
Mr. Candler in his decision dismisses the claim of discrimination growing out of the lower rate which the Georgia Railroad is pow permitted to charge, as compared with other roads in that territory. He holds the argument untenable and sets forth that the commission fixes rates on "each road" in the state. He shows that different freight tariffs are charged and no claim of discrimination is made on that account.
REMEDY FOR SAN JOSE SCALE.
Black Fungus is Said to Be Enemy of Dreaded Pest.
Atlanta, Ga.—In the accidental discovery of the black fungus, peach growers believe they have at last found a successful remedy for the San Jose scale, one of the worst foes of the orchard.
This fungus was first discovered in Florida, where orange growers used it in combating a certain infection in their groves. It grows on the limbs of trees, and produces a light feathery growth which the wind blows to other trees. This growth, thus blown by the wind, lands on the scale-infected trees, and kills the scale.
Hitherto orchardmen have depended on sprays to kill the scale. This method is not infallible, and is very expensive. The fungus eliminates expense and works its own cure without aid.
SHERIFFS MUST PAY CAR FARE.
Railroad Commission Refuses to Allow Them to Accept Passes. Atlanta, Ga.-The sheriffs of Georgia must continue to pay regular rates when they ride on trains and street cars in this state. The railroad commission closed its ears against the petition of the sheriffs to be permitted to accept free transportation. The sheriffs pointed out that their income was small, but the commission saw in the granting of the application a dangerous precedent.
P. EDWARD PERRY, Vice President.
WAS AFRAID OF BANKS.
Sumter County Man's Money Destroyed by Fire. Americus, Ga.—Bearing a blackened mass of molten silver, representing the wreck and ruin of a small fortune to himself, John Fish came to Americus to ascertain the value of his property. Fish's house was burned and among other valuable consumed was a considerable amount of bank notes totally destroyed. Fish was afraid of banks and kept all his money concealed in his dwelling.
FERTILIZER BULLETIN.
Tags for 884,295 Tons Were Sold During the Season.
Atlanta, Ga.,—Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson is sending out the fertilizer bulletin for the season of 1908-1909, which shows that tags have been sold for 884,295 tons of fertilizers, and cotton seed meal for use in Georgia this year. The department has no way of knowing how much is actually used, except by the amount of tags sold. This represents an income to the department of agriculture of something like $88,000. After all expenses of inspection are paid by the department, the law requires that the balance of this sum shall be apportioned among the eleven district agricultural colleges of the state.
The season just closing has been unusually heavy, as there were 2,274 brands of fertilizers inspected during this season, as against 1,822 of last season, which, according to Dr. R. E. tSallings, state chemist, Is the heaviest laboratory work done since the establishment of this department.
In his remarks, Commissioner Hudson says, in part: "We are glad to report that, in the main, there is an improvement of business conditions in Georgia, as compared with last year. Unless there is a change in the present outlook, our cotton crop will very probably be somewhat short of that of last season in acreage and yield. Seldom has there been a better prospect for a fine yield of cotton in South Georgia, and the small grains also show an increase in acreage and in yield." He concluded his splendid address with an appeal to the farmers of Georgia to place their farms upon a businesslike and self-sustaining basis.
This bulletin contains a number of the best fertilizer formulas known at the department, and it is interesting to know that practically every one of them includes cotton seed meal as one of the principal ingredients for commercial fertilizers.
Cotton seed meal, too, is being sold throughout the state under the pure food law as a cattle feed, for its value as such is even greater than as a component part of a commercial fertilizer in that the manure of cattle fed with cotton seed meal is as good for fertilizing purposes as the original cotton seed meal.
In the neighborhood of 20,000 bulletins are being mailed but to the farmers of Georgia by the department of agriculture.

A great corn carnival will be held in Albany on the 16th of November and arrangements are being made to bring to this city for that occasion one of the largest crowds ever gathered in south Georgia. Many features are being planned to make the occasion one of peculiar interest. One will be a display of corn from every county in this section of the state. This has been the greatest corn year in the history of this section. The acreage was the largest ever planted, and the yield has been phenomenally large, the crop having been practically made before the drought
A total of 18,61 corporations doing business in Georgia have failed to comply with the state law which requires registration annually with the secretary of state, and the filing of rertain information regarding their character and amount of capital stock. Of these 1,697 are domestic and 164 are foreign corporations.
A natural rainmaking machine, mystifying to all beholders, is reported at Rome. In the yard of Councilman S. B. Chambers, on the north side, is a plum tree whose leaves shed a steady moisture twenty-four hours a day. When viewed in the sunlight the phenomenon has the appearance of a slight sprinkle of rain, and the falling drops can be plainly felt at night. Several observers are willing to take an oath that on cool mornings what appears to be flakes of snow slit down from the tree. There is a similar "rain tree" on the ex-Mayor Mims' property on Peachtree street in Atlanta. This tree, which is of the cotton wood variety, has been showering without cessation for over a year.

Persistence of the
The Soul Is More of a Real
the Body
By Charles Nevers Hoe
T
It is true that of coming dawn morning, and to existence. We are frozen, lifeless same landscapes gorgeous buttman's more glorious al body must so ed and guarded comes the liberty. It is nature represents his mour mortal eyes dead. Our friend has been in more other environment by the human. The soul of atoms constitute ego is more a r to feel too keenence to be a cruc fore we exist, a create life to me at the grave!
It is true that we dwell amid the dark, with only the first faint glimmers of coming dawn to illuminate our ignorance. But to every night there is a morning, and to the night of our terrestrial life will come a day of future existence. We ramble beneath the skies of winter and gaze sadly over the frozen, lifeless landscape. All is dead—it is death!—yet in a few weeks this same landscape will blossom into the glories of a springtime resurrection. The gorgeous buttery will flit from flower to flower, symbolic in its birth of a man's more glorious awakening into a newer and nobler life. Our terrestrial body must soon return to its natural condition, because the life that warmed and guarded it will be expelled; but with the death of the body there comes the liberation, not the death, of the ego.
It is natural to mourn over the body of our friend, because that body represents his memory, and we have never seen, probably never can see with our mortal eyes, his soul or ego. But our friend is not dead; only his body is dead. Our friend has merely escaped from his tenement of clay where he has been in more or less uncomfortable imprisonment, and has enferred into other environments, not controlled by human hands, not to be comprehended by the human mind in its present state of development.
The soul or ego can no more be destroyed and annihilated than can the atoms constituting our terrestrial bodies be destroyed and annihilated. Our ego is more a reality than is our body, and we are able to think too clearly, to feel too keenly, and to execute too accurately for earth and earth's existence to be a cruel and miserable hallucination. We are able to think, therefore we exist, and if we once exist we shall forever exist. Nature does not create life to mock that life; the Creator does not create man to blight him at the grave!
Landsman and Sailor
Ey L. Frank Tooker
dent on land, w regularity, bring kept them from and its attendan would, cross the more stoutly coat sea in a storm ejaculated, "God—The Century.
dent on land, while the great passenger ships come and go in monotonous regularity, bringing no reports more stirring than those of high seas that have kept them from making new records. With the present madness for speed and its attendant recklessness, our streets demand constant alertness, if one would, cross them with safety. Speed at sea has come through larger and more stoutly constructed ships. So the familiar old story of the sailorman at sea in a storm who, serene in his consciousness of ample sea room, piously ejaculated, "God help the poor folks ashore tonight!" is not wholly fantastic,—The Century.
HE immortality of the soul, of the ego, of one's own existence, is at all times a vital and interesting question for discussion. By immortality we mean, of course, that our ego—ourself—can never perish, but on the death of our body will continue to exist under changed conditions. What these changed conditions are, what these future environments are, we do not know, but most of us admit publicly or privately the naturalness and the certainty of the souls immortality.
O the landman the sea must always possess dangers that to the sailor appear only as casual phenomena upon which to exercise his skill. The prayer-book has a special petition, for the safety of those who go down to the sea in ships, and every one who ventures to leave the shore goes forth with a consciousness of awe at his own daring. Yet in the intricate complexity of modern civilization safety on land and safety at sea have walked by no means with equal step. Every morning brings us some story of death or acci-

His progress became harder as he
struggled against the force of th

surged madly about his Head. Ken-

Then the: rodman saw that he had
‘been caught in. the eddy, and was be-

for help. A-deathly fear,swept over

Ings modern-sclenco and business en:

Telegraphy fs a fascinating study to
boys. To those who contemplate the
erection of a private telephone or

of two ways of bracing poles. In fact,
tho plans are worthy of any farmer's
attention who uses poles for any pur-

How to Brace a Telephone Pole.
|. It is to be remarked, first of all,
‘that poles get out of plumb and align-
‘ment because of wind presquro and
wire strain, Eliminate these two
stresses upon any pole, and unless {t
be located at the edgé of quicksand,
or abuts a lving spring of water, It
will very likely remain erect until it
decays. Fig, 1 shows a form of brac-
Ing that Is excellent to aid a pole to
withstand tho-rocking effect of the
wind. Most winds are unsteady In
effort, and this accounts for so many
‘poles leaning, for the pressure of
the wind comes and goes suddenly,
each gust being followed by periods
of lull, s0 that a pole rocks, swinging
‘out with the gust, and back with the
following’ lull, The design is selt-
explanatory, and Is intended for a
full-sized pole, set seven feet in the
ground. But poles to carry two to
four wires need pot be so large, elther
in diameter or In height, nor be set
so deeply in the ground. The per-
pendicular braces, coupled at the top
by horizontal timbers, are effictent to
withstand the rocking effect of the
pole. The oblique braces are also
Valuable assistants. Strange as it
may appear, when oblique braces ara
used alone, they tend to lift a pole
out of the earth as it rocks back
and forth. The horizontal braces do
not have this tendency. Perhaps chil-~
dren have observed, that their swing
poles, when braced by oblique braces
only, have gradually become Ioosened
and lifted by. swinging. This system
of brdcing poles, therefore, is to be
recommended ‘for children’s swings.
The design stows the parts; well.pro-
portioned, and they may be propor-
tionally reduced In dimensfons in
working them out. ,,
Fig. 2 shows how cement may be
substituted for wooden braces at &
bend of the line where the wind and
wire strains are not too severe. The

ALL over the State our people
should become aroused and regis-
ter at once. The voters in Chat-
ham County have already made a
fair showing in registering, The
others should go at once and have
their names entered on the books.
The leader of thought in ‘every
community should take this mat-
ter up and encourage the voters to
action. .
Surr. Asumore in his report of
the crowded condition of the
schools, has completely ignored
the colored schools. Each grade
in these schools is overcrowded,
and thousands of our children are
without accommodation. Every
effort is being made by tho super-
intendent to see that each white
child is accommodated. This we
commend, and would like for the
authorities to do someting to re-
lieve the crowded condition of
our schools and furnish facilities
for some of the thousands of boys
and girls who are on the outside.
Our State School Commissioner
has issued a statement in refuta-
tion of the just; attack on the
school facilities given the colored
children of this State. He gave
figures to show that the colored
children received many times more
money than their parents pay the
State in taxes. In this statement
the Commissioner is commended
by The Atlanta Constitution along
the same line. If the Commission-
er would prorate the tax as paid by
the whites in the same mauner as
he did in the case for the colored,
it will be found that the whites also
receive much more from thé State
than they pay in direct tax for
education.
The State—School Commissioner
has failed to give us credit for
that part of tax deriving from the
sale of fertilizers, and other items,
which would increase the total far
above that which we now receive.
Again the Commissioner has as-
serted that the State pays $8000.00
8 year for the support of the
Georgia State Industrial College.
This sum may be paid by the
State, but the State receives it
from the Land Script Fund of the
United States, thus Georgia pays
not a penny for the higher educa-
tion of the Negroes.

Notwithstanding the fact that
Rey. Alexander Harris was near-
ing the century line, that he had’
lived a strenuous life of uplift, and
tor the past several months he has
been in ill health, especially was
he seriously ill during the week
‘preceeding his demise, yet when
the end came it sorely affected
those wh6 were near him and also
all of his numerous friends.
His death occurred Jast Satur-
day afternoon at, 5:15 o'clock at his
late residence, 525 West Ogle-
thorpe aventie. :
Everything that medical skill
could devise, with the nursing,
tender care-and constant watching
of loved ones were done for his re-
covery, but, alas! ‘the brittle
thread of life was cut and he peace-
fully slept away in death surround-
ed by severdl who loved him best.
Rey. Harris was favorably
mown by all classes of citizens,
and held in high esteem by every-
body, He had scores of white
friends who appreciated his ines-
timable worth, and honored him
at his funeral in a way never be-
ore shown a colored man in this
community.
He was born in this city July 9,
1818, and was‘a free man all of his
life. In early life he was taken
to Augusta where be worked at
the blacksmith trade. His mother
died in that city and was buried
there. Returning to this city he
entered into the prominence of af-
fairs and was easily a leader. Rev-
Harris was especially interested in
Sunday School and Church work.
At the breaking out of the civil
war he was conscripted and taken
into the Confederate army as a
member of the Republican Blues’
drum corps. He served faithfally
unti! honorably discharged.
Returning from the war he en-
tered actively into church work
and joined the ministry. He erec-
ted the First Bryan Baptist Church
on West Broad street, and contin-
ued as its only pastor until his
death. He was pastor emeritus
of the churches at Nicolsonboro
and Twin Hill. He has assisted in
the organization of several Baptist
associations, and was for years
moderator, of the Mt. Olive Asso-
ciation. Ho was oneof the organ-
izers of the State Baptist Coaven-
tion, and gave active service until
he became disabled by health.
Asa Mason he was one of the
,first ones to he initiated in Eureka
[Lodge No. 1. of this city, on Feb.
4, 1866, ‘andassisted in the forma-
|tion of the Grand Lodge... He wasa
Past Grand Master, and has neve
missed a communication of the
{Grand Lodge uutil the present
year, at which time he ~was too
feeble to attend. He wasa high
type of a Mason, and was a juris-
prudence within himself. He was
jloved by the Masons all over the
state. .- .
{ Inearly manhood Kev. Harris
‘was & member of the volunteer fire
| department and rendered great ser-
vice. For marly years he was cus-
{todian of the poor fund of the
leounty, and was only relieved of
this service at the re-organization
of the board of County Commis-
sionérs. He rendered valuable
and faithful service during the yel-
low fever scourge of 1877, many
hundreds of dollars passing
throurh his hands, and for which
he received the unstinted praise of
the citizens. In every movement
for good he wasidentified and gave
the weight of-his influence and
means, e
Rey. Harris left no relatives, his
nearest survivor being Miss Alice
B. Miller who has resided in
the home for the past thirty-three
years, and whom he always ten-
derly. called his daughter. His
only daughter, then his two sons,
two of the most brilliant young
men of their days, died, then Mrs.
Harris preceeded him in death
after living together in happiness
for over bulf a century. ‘The last
of his near relative was his sister-
in-law, Miss Fuller, who died three
years ago.
‘The funeral took place Monday
afternoon from the church that he
loyed and built, The edifice was
crowded with friends, a number of
them being his white friends and
veterans of the Republican Blues.
‘The services were conducted by
Rev. Geo, H. Dwelle of Augusta,
an old, friend in church and
moasonry Rey. Direlle spoke
vers feelingly over the bier, of his
deceased friend. The shortyeulogy
‘of Rev. Hosea Maxwell, who was
always faithful as a friend and
a constant visitor during liis sick-
‘ness, was fluent and appropriate,
Rev. W. E. Cash also assisted in
the ceremony.
| At the cemetery the impressive
ceremony of the Order of the
‘Eastern Star was faultlessly con-
ducted; followed by the Masonic
rites. Atintervals the choir sang
beautifully, as also at the church.
» Theficral offerings were many,
‘among them being a wreath pre-
sented by the Daughters of Con-
federacy and an elevated star by
the Republican Blues. i
| The funeral coremony and buri-
‘al were in-keepig with his re-
quest, simple but impressive.
With the dust of his loved ones,
his remains were’ buried, leaving
only on carth the sweet memory
of a life that was full of energy,
a mind that was a master, a spirit
that was high, a charactér that
was noble, and aboye all that of a

Suggestion No.1 for the
Year 1909-10.
To the President and other Officers of
Local Negro Business Leagues:
‘Now is the time to begin muking defi
nate plans fer the year's work", Certain
impectant questions should be’ settled
first of all: a
1 Decide the question as to 2 definite
time of meeting, Each, Local League
should meet at least onceta month, often-
er if possible.
€ Settle the question as to the place of
meeting. Wherever possible and practi-
cable there should be 9 central and per-
manent place of meeting which might be
ajkind of headquarters so fitted up thet
it will be comfortable, convenient and. at-
tractive for club meetings. It might
answer the purposes of a Board of Trade
or other commercial orgacization.

F A B Church
Remember tomorrow, Sunday, will conclude the "Home Coming" series of meetings. The past week] have been a jubilant one. The pastor Rev W L Jones assisted by Revs P M unter, JB Miller, and Lic. B Arkweight fit the pupit during the week. Their sermons were inspiring and well in harmony with the spirit of the meeting. Many wandering members have been reclaimed and much more is expected tomorrow. The services at the early morning prayer meeting will be led by Dea T R Williams followed by a short talk from the ministers present. At the 11 o'clock services the pastor will preach the "Home Coming" sermon. 3 o'clock in the afternoon all the members and leaders of the various prayer houses connected with the church will meet with the mother church and have a christian jubilee. Short talks will be made by various ministers, officers and members who feel inspired to talk. At night Rev A W Bryant of Valdosta, Ga, will preach.
F B B Church Dots.
Not withstanding the inclement weather on Sunday night the seating capacity of the church was taxed to accommodate the exceedingly large crowd. The distinguished guest was Zerel Lodge No 165 I O of G S. Rev Wright read for the lesson, St John 4:1-29. The history of the Lodge was read by Mr Jas Martin. Rev Wright in a few choice words heartily welcomed the Lodge. "The text was from St John 4:29. The subject was "The Samaritan woman." Rev Wright's description of Jacob's well and the conversation of Jesus with the Samaritan woman at the well was excellent. The picture he painted on our minds was as bright as words could make it. The sermon was excellent and he held his hearers spell bound during the whole time. The choir sang very sweetly "The Living Water." Rev Wright led the hymn "That awful
day will surely come. So impressed were those present with his sermon, that they came and occupied every space around the altar. Rev Wright with much feryor carried every case to the mercy seat. The Lodge contributed very liberally to the church, pastor, choir and sexton. they even donated to poor saints of the church. It is very unusual to see a person in prosperity remember their friends who are poor and friendless. Do not fall to attend our service when you can.
St. Philip Dots.
Rev John A Capps, Local Dencon of St Phillips preached at elvven o'clock on last Sunday morning to a large and representative congregation. The choir and congregation sang hymn 575 "Another six days have gone" and Rev Capps' text was Daniel 4:27 "Wherefore O, King let my Counsel be acceptable unto thee and break off thy sins by Righteousness" subject, "Break off thy Sins by Righteousness." His forceful argument in discussing this subject impressed the audience the importance of turning away from their sins and doing good along various-religious requirements. Rev Capps is somewhat advanced in age not withstanding this he is making one of the most practical and earnest preachers in the Georgia Conference and it is quite a pleasure to
bear him. The fourth quarterly conference of St Phillips was held on last night, the reports from the several departments were very encouraging to the members and speaks well of the present administration. There have been quite an improvement in the dollar money collection this week but the last year Banner class is yet way behind. 26 are going on and is still on the wall and have no time to come down. The following services will be held on tomorrow; prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m. preaching at 11 a.m. by PresidingElder, R H Singleton; Sunday School at 2 p.m. A D E League at 4:30 p.m. Preaching at 8 p.m. Strangers are cordially invited.

The great success of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery in curing weak stomachs, wasted bodies, weak lungs, and obstinate and lingering coughs, is based on the recognition of the fundamental truth that "Golden Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with body-building, tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, and deensed and concentrated form. With this help Nature supplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering obstructive coughs. The "Discovery" re-establishes the digestive organs in sound health, purifies and curches the blood, and nourishes the nerves—in short establishes sound vigorous health.
If your doctor offers something just as good it is probably better FOR YOU—it pays better. But you are thinking of the cure not the profit, so there's nothing just as good for you. Say so.

THE RIGHT GOODS IN THE WRONG PLACE.
```markdown
```
One grocery salesman, traveling out of Chicago, has for years made a specialty of picking up "the right goods in the wrong place." Towns have their own trade peculiarities, and goods which sell readily in one place may prove to be head stock in a town twenty miles distant.
Cigars afford a good example of this peculiarity. The merchant buys a certain brand of cigars because he likes it, perhaps, or because it contains superior stock for the price and he thinks he can make a "leader" of the stock is good, but it does not hit the taste of the town and it will not sell. The alert commercial traveler who has an eye for bargains on the shelves of his customers, buys the entire stock at a "knockdown price" say twenty-five per cent. of what the merchant paid. He then takes it for another town, where the public taste is different, and sells it for a little under the regular price.
Perhaps groceries and drugs offer the best opportunities to the shrewd traveling man for this traffic in "dead stocks," but there is scarcely a line of trade which is devoid of these chances for the turning of an honest penny. One salesman, travelling out of Chicago, received a regular salary of $1800 a year, but made double that amount in the rehandling of misfit goods. He is now worth $65,000.
Instead of buying from a merchant only his stock of a certain brand of cigars or canned goods, the trading commercial traveler often buys the entire store and puts it in charge of some energetic and capable clerk whose abilities have attracted his notice. There are hundreds of instances in which this has been done with great success, the "silent partner" still continuing to "follow the road" and pick up goods adapted to his own trade from the dead stock of the merchants whom he visits in the capacity of commercial traveler. — Forrest Crissey, in Everybody's.
->Profitable Protective Forests.
From her State forests France derives an annual income of approximately $5,000,000, or $1.75 an acre. Approximately 6,000,000 acres are managed by the State, the annual cost of management being ninety-five cents an acre. The great achievement of France in forestry has been the establishment of protective forests where much destruction has been caused by "bogs." Toward the close of the eighteenth century about 2,500,000 acres comprised in the department of the lands were little more than shifting sand dunes and disease-breeding marshes. This section is now one of the richest, most productive and healthful in France. This change has been brought about by the intelligent cultivation of pine forests. Immense forests now cover the country, the sand dunes and marshes have done since disappeared, and the wood "charcoal, turpentine, resin, and, kindred industries have brought prosperity to the department, which was formerly the most barren and mismatic in France. The climate is now mild and balmy, the great change being wrought by the forests.—Science.
Hens That Think.
If the average man were asked if hens had any memory he would probably say, "No, but he would be wrong, according to the experiments of two German scientists." The plan they adopted was to gum twenty grains of rice on a piece of cardboard and between them to place ten grains of lodge corn. At first, the hens, of course, pecked, at both rice and corn, but soon they learned to leave the rice alone, thus very clearly showing that they remembered that the rice was stuck down.
A very remarkable thing about the experiment was that the longer the time between the trials the better was the hens' memory. When the experiments were made consecutively it took them six times to learn that the rice was not worth touching, but when the experiments were made at intervals and hour they learned the lesson at the third try, thus showing not only that they had memories, but that they thought the matter over in the intervals. Chicago Journal.

The commanding officer of a regiment was much concerned what to do with a soldier who was most untidy. After trying every means to make him decent he determined to shame him into a sense of what, was proper, so he hit the whole regiment drawn up at attention and marched the culprit behind the illness. After this he had been in ordered Pat (the man was an Irishman) brought to capture him. "What?" he inquired.

CONCERNING NICE.
The Capital City of the Riviera is a Place to Loaf Joyously.
English speaking people have been coming to Nice to rest and to make merry for at least two centuries. The city does other things besides entertaining pleasure seekers, but that is the chief concern. The city fathers are always planning for the comfort and the delight of the visitor, and a million is spent cheerfully to improve the beauties of nature in the certain knowledge that it is a good investment.
Dr. Thomas Linolett, an Englishman, "discovered" Nice in 1714 or thereabout. It had been existing for many, many centuries, a massive, stone built town, when Dr. Linolett came. He stayed two years, found it an ideal place to loaf, and voiced his pleasure in a book. The book was read in England and the English promptly made Nice a necessary part of the "grand tour." After the English came the Americans, until now in the winter season there is an English speaking population of nearly 20,000.
In the two centuries a new city grew beside the old, a city given over to hotels, casinos, theatres, clubs and shops that rival Paris, a city of beautiful streets, squares and public gardens. It is a city now of all tongues. You may come to Nice from any corner of the earth and worry along in your own language. Like all Riviera towns, French and Italian speech prevails among the natives. Nice did not become a French city until 1860, when King Victor Emmanuel of Italy ceded it to France.
If you go to Monte Carlo it isn't much fun unless you gamble, and sometimes not even when the play is ended; but if you come to Nice on pleasure bent you have only to name your pleasure and the means to gratify it are at hand. You may commune with nature at her best—equable temperature, fine air, blue sky and blue sea, the mountains towering above you, are yours. They are about the only things here that don't cost money; but you don't have to be wealthy to stay at Nice. Cosey villas are to be had at moderate prices and market prices are lower than elsewhere on the Riviera.
"I like to come to Nice to forget myself," said an American woman. "If I have a care when I come it is forgotten in the joy of living in a place where to live joyously as you will is the ruling passion. There is no resisting, especially in carnival time, when the fun and frolic would bring smiles and forgetfulness even to a sombre New England Puritan."
A White Tigress.
A white tigress eight feet eight inches in length has been shot in Dhenkanal State, Orissa. The ground color was pure white, and the stripes wers of a deep reddish black. The skin has been presented to the rajah of Dhenkanal, who has had it mounted and placed in his palace. shikaris (hunters) of this country say that it is the only white tiger they have seen.—London Standard.

No woman should submit to a surgical operation, which may mean death, until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made exclusively from roots and herbs, a fair trial. This famous medicine for women has for thirty years proved to be the most valuable tonic and renewer of the female organism. Women residing in almost every city will willing testimony to the United States bear witness to the virtue of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It cures female ills, and creates radiant, buoyant female health. If you are ill, for your own sake as well as those you love, give it a trial.
Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., invites all sick women to write her for advice. Her advice is free; and always helpful.
HOUSEHOLD TOPICS
For Comfort.
Those who care more for comfort than for personal appearance are advised to let the perspiration evaporate from their faces and hands instead of wiping it off. This way coolness lies. It lies so near in fact that the rule has to be followed, with discretion, else a chill may be the result. —Indianapolis News.
Gasolene Stoves.
When you decide to buy a gasoline store, says a writer in Good Housekeeping, be sure to have it burned off before it is sent home. These stoves are oiled, it seems, in order to keep them in good condition in the store, and people have been burned seriously, besides running the risk of firing the house, when using one for the first time.
Health. Hints.
If one cannot copy the old-time women with their aromatic herbs, there are many things which can be used in the water to soften it and make it more refreshing. Among these is a lemon cut in slices and placed in the bath ten minutes before using. A little borax will also soften the water, or a bag about five inches square filled with half bran and half oatmeal. Olive oil is an excellent-fattener. Some can take a tablespoonful after meal easily. It stimulates and makes active the digestive organs, clears the complexion, and makes the eyes bright and sparkling.—Boston Herald.
A Dainty Pincushion.
Among the many charming and attractive novelties seen in the shops, one of the daintiest was a neat little pincushion about six inches square, covered with fine plique. It was deeply scalloped around the edge in such a way that they alternated, the big scallops falling below to give the appearance of a double frill. The top of the cover, which had a white background, had a conventional design in Wallachian embroidery done in several shades of pink. In the centre was a large embroidered monogram. This pretty and convenient little novelty would be a most appropriate gift for the traveler who can not have too many dainty hand-made cushions.—New York Press.
India Relish.
As the making of proprietary commercial articles is usually a trade secret, I am not able to tell you just how manufactured India relish is made. Hero is an excellent rule, however, for its making: Chop fine a small head of cabbage, six onions, twelve green peppers and two quarts of green tomatoes. Sprinkle over them one cupful salt and let stand until the next day. Drain off all the liquid and put the vegetables in a kettle. Barely cover with vinegar. Add one-half cupful mustard seed, one teaspoonful celery seed and one-half cupful of sugar. Boil five minutes, take from the fire and put in glass or stone jars. If you like the relish sweet, more sugar can be added. Add at the last one tablespoonful English mustard.—Washington Star.
In the Kitchen
Lemon Sherbet.—Boil two cupfuls water with one cupful sugar; beat until cold. Add grated rind of one lemon and juice of three lemons. Freeze.
Cucumber Salad.—Peel two cucumbers and place them in clear cold water. When ready to serve cut them in two lengthwise and lay on a salad dish, flat side down. Then slice across without disturbing their shape and add French dressing.
Filling For Washington Ple.—Beat the whites of two eggs stiff, add three-quarter cup confectioners' sugar and beat; then add two or three teaspoonfuls melted chocolate and one-half teaspoon vanilla. This is also delicious as frosting on a custard ple.
Orange and Rhubarb Marmalade.—Peel six oranges and one lemon; slice the pulp and cut the peel into shreds; put in a preserving kettle and add one quart rhubarb cut fine (about two pounds); now add one and one-half pounds sugar. Boll about one hour or until quite thick.
Spanish Beef.—Mincefinally enough cooked beef to make two cups. Melt two rounding tablespoons of butter, add one small onion minced fine; cook until light brown, add one-quarter cup of flour and stir until brown. Add the meat, one cup of beef broth, one cup of strained tomatoes and heat well. Add salt and pepper and serve on a hot dish or in a rice border.
Meat Pie.—Take scraps left from any kind of cooked meat and put in sauce pan with gravy, if you have it; if not, cover with water. Season well, add one tomato, if you have it, and one tablespoonful of butter. When it is hot place in baking dish and cover with mashed potato. The potato forms a crust for your pie, and if dotted with lumps of butter and browned quickly you may have a tempting luncheon dish made of left overs from your day-before's dinner.

Testimonials Showing What Students Do in Georgia, Alabama Business College, Macon, Ohio.
Hon. Marmaduke G. Beynel—attorney at law; "Mr. Eugene, Anderson made my son, Lester, one of the best stenographers in Macon in one month's time. I do not believe Mr. Anderson's equal a teacher has ever been seen in this country.
Miss Ida Moore, Macon. After five weeks' instruction at the hands of Mr. Anderson, I went into a position that paid me $50 per month."
Miss Marilie Moore, stenogrammer for Representative Ed. Rails: "After five weeks' instruction in Mr. Anderson's classes, I accepted the position which I have since been holding. I owe to Mr. Anderson a debt of gratitude, for he made me what I am in benefaction." Miss Lillian McArthur, Mason: "After ten days' study with Mr. Anderson, I was able to take 83 words a minute in dictation." Hon. Dudley M. Hughes, Congressman from the Third Congressional District of Georgia: "Mr. W. N. Northrop, whom the Georgia-Ambassadors sent to me as private secretary, is one of the most particular and accurate stenogramners I have ever seen." Mr. Northrop writes: "After studying five weeks with Mr. Anderson I was able to report a convention, at which work I made £25 in a day and a half." Mr. N. Northrop, former Bector of St. Paul's College, I consider Mr. Anderson's method of teaching Shorhard a public benefaction."
Hon. Arthur L. Dasher, attorney at law,
Macon: "After five weeks of instruction
under Mr. Anderson my son, Arthur, Jr.,
was able to hold his own in competition
with the other players in the field for years. During the few months
since he finished his work in the Georgia-
Alabama he has been doing court work
with entire satisfaction to his employers.
These facts would seem incredible to me if
he had personal acquaintance with them."
A. VEGETABLE; LOCKER
The housekeeper who has once known the convenience of a vegetable locker in the cellar will deprive herself of other necessities—rather than not have one installed in any house where she may live.
Such a locker can be made of heavy wire mesh, about an inch and a half spaces. For the average-sized family it should measure eight feet long, and four-feet wide, and extend from the floor of the cellar to ceiling.
At one end should be a door two feet wide provided with a spring look. Inside, running around the side and end, are two shelves of the wire netting; the first four feet high, the second from 18 inches to two feet above it.
Underneath is ample space for baskets, garden tools and other utensils that are better locked away from dishonest ashmen and mischievous children. On one of the shelves can go boxes and crates of vegetables, jars of preserves and canned goods. Any, of these latter that should be kept dark can be wrapped in paper, or a box with a hinged door can be provided for them.
In arranging such a vegetable looker it is well to put it near a window, which may be kept open to give a good circulation of air—Boston Post.
THE HONEYMOON-SPECIAL.
Bride—Yes, there were six bridal parties on our train.
Old Chum—Well! Well, and tell me about that long, narrow tunnel through the mountains. Did you get through safely?
Bride—Oh, yes, we just squeezed through—Chicago News.
Settled With Perfect Satisfaction by Dyspeptic
It's not an easy matter to satisfy all the members of the family at meal time, as every housewife knows.
And when the husband has dyspepsia and can't eat the simplest ordinary food without causing trouble, the food question becomes doubly annoying.
An Illinois woman writes:
"My husband's health was poor, he had no appetite for anything I could get for him, it seemed. . ."
"He was hardly able to work, was taking medicine continually, and as soon as he would feel better would go to work again, only to give up in a few weeks. He suffered severely with stomach trouble.
"Tired of everything I, had been able to get for him to say one day seeing an advertisement about Grape-Nuts. I got some and he tried it for breakfast the next morning!"
"We all thought it was pretty good, although we had no idea of using it regularly. But, when my husband came home at night he asked for Grape-Nuts.
"It was the same next day, and I had to get it right along, because when we would get to the table the question: 'Have you any Grape-Nuts?' was a regular thing, So I began to buy it by the dozen eggs."
"My husband's health began to improve right along... I sometimes felt offended when I'd make something I thought he would like for a change, and still hear the same old question, 'Have you any Grape-Nuts?'<sup>13</sup>
"He got so well that I'd the last two years he has hardly lost a day from his work, and we are still using Grape-Nuts." Read the hook, "The Road to Wellville: Impressions. There's a Reason."

Value of Sweet Clover.
Sweet clover is generally comsid-
ered a weed, and under certain con-
Altiobs it Is ‘sub. It, however, pro-
duces valuable, forage in sections
south of the clover belt. Stock do
not like it at first, but they can easily
become educated to eat ft either
green or cured.
Sweet clover {s biennial and dies
after the second year, hence to keep
a field sceded it will be necessary to
allow a good portion of the plants to
£0 te seed in July.
The greatest value of sweet clover
ig as a soll builder. It will grow on
land too poor to produce anything
else. It is commonly found growing
wild along railroad cuts, roadsides
and othey places where the top soil
has beex“removed. In a few years it
would reclaim poor land and make
it capable of producing other and
more valuable crops.—Weekly Wit-
ness.
PR Catch Deeps. *
‘Whether corn is cultivated level or
in check rows, it is always profitable
to sow some crop at the last working.
Whenever we see a cornfield bare
during the winter we think what a
saste of opportunity. Sowing a catch
crop at the last working of corn not
onty enables this crop to grow with-
‘out extra preparation, but it covers
the land during the winter, which
prevents leaching.and washing of the
soil, and materially increases succced-
ing crops.
‘There are so many crops that can
be sown at the last working of either
corn or cotton that the wonder to me
ig that any farmer should try to get
along*without using ong. You can
sow to advantage either ¢rimsoa
clover, rye, winter oats or veteh. All
of them usually give good results
sown in this way.
If corn is planted early cowpeas
are an excellent crop to sow, at the
Jast working. Farmers who have had
experience state that the cowpeas in-
crease the yield of the corn crop, and
at the same time make a most ex-
cellent quantity of feed, as well as
Amprove the land for the crops to fol-

& Test Litter For Yenc.
‘We were once asked to Visit 2 poul-
try farm where the hens were not
laying’ satisfactorily-to see it we could
discover any reason for the lack of
eggs. The work on this place was
entrusted to help. The owner had
‘the theory of poultry raising, but
very little practice, He knew that
the grain should be fed in-deep litter.
‘The men told him that there was
straw in the houses, and what more
could the hens want?
“My hens have plenty of feed,”
sald-the owner of the farm. “They
have plenty of water, grit, charcoal,
and litter to scrateh Im, and yet in
May I am getting only a one-third
ecg yield.”
The trouble was not far to seek.
The litter was packed down so solid
that it might almost as well have
deen a barn floor. The grain had
been thrown on top of this till the
Dirds were surfelted, and grain was
scattered in heaps on the floor and
in the corners of the house. The
yard, had been picked clean, there
‘was no Inducement to exercise out-
side, and no opportunity inside, so
the hens waxed fat azd lazy. If the
straw had been tossed up each day,
kept light so that the hens could
scratch ft about, and if the grain had
been scattered on the bare floor and
the straw kicked over it, the chickens
would have been forced to scratch
for their living.
The great advantage of leaves for
Utter'is that they are too light to
‘pack. A house twelve inches deep
in Jeaves is ideally equipped for
soratching. Lacking the leaves, straw
is 2064, if allowed to pack.
‘We, thought we had found just the
litter’ we wanted one ycar when we
saved the chaff from the threshing,
but later found that the hens pick
upioo much chat with their feet.
and the “chaff was unwhdlesome as
well as unnutritious, i

‘Alfalfa Will Grow Everywhere.
‘While experts have been declaring
that alfalfa would only grow in cer.
tain soils and in certain climates it
has proved its adaptability to nearly
all climates and almost all soils. It
produces with a rainfall as scant as
fourteen inches, and in the Gult
States flourishes with alxty-five
inches, It gives crops at an eleva-
thon of $000 feet above sea level, and
in southern California it grows be-
low sca level to a helght of six feet
or over, with nine cuttings a year,
agaregating tem to twelve tons. An
authenticated photograph in posses-
sion of the writer shows a wonderful
alfalfa plant raised in the (irrigated)
desert of southern Callfornia, sixty
feet in height. Satisfactory crops
are raised, but on limited areas as
yet, in Vermont and Florida. New
Yorkhas grown it for ver one hun-
dred years in her clay and gravel;
Nebraska grows it in her western
sand hills without plowing, as does
Nevada on her sage brush desert. The
depleted cotton soils of Alabama and
rich corn fields of Illinois and Miss-
ouri each respond generously with
profitable yields to the enterprising
farmer, while {ts atcumulated nitro-
gen and the sub-solling it effects are
making the rich land more valuable
and giving back'to the crop worn the
priceless elements of which {t has
been in successive generations de-
spoiled by a conscienceless husbandry.

Profit in Cherry Raisinz.
fo Hes renog.or tae vest
there are in fruit culture in western
Washington fs seen in a brief dis-
patch from Stanwood, recording the
fagt that the cherry growers in that
section of the country are’ closing
their shipments after the most suc-
cess{ul season ever known, The late
varieties of cherries. such as the
Royal Annes, brought the Tegord
price of seventeen cents a pound in
the orchard, about eight cents more
than the previous high price paid
there. *
‘There is flo fruit that does better on
‘the deforested land of wes‘ern Wash-
ington than the cherry, and nowhere
in the world are finer cherries pro-
duced than here. The cherry tree
grows to great size and bears in this
favored climate abundantly. There
are forty-rear-old cherry trees in this
couaty which are loaded with this
delicious fruit every “rear. A single
old cherry tree has been known to
‘bear a crop of $00 pounds in a sea-
‘son.
| At the price in the orchard of less
than one-half that which was recent-
Ty paid _in Stanwood, the owner of &
‘Puget Sound cherry orchard jn full
bearing can have an annual “income
from each acre larger than the high-
est income earned from the best of
the orchards under irrigation in east-
ern Washington. The western Wash-
ington cherries are produced without
irrigation, and will grow on lands of
which thousands of acres are yet to
be had at prices but a petty fraction
of that commanded by lands under
ditch in the better advertised fruit-
growing sections of this State.
« There could hardly be a better and
safer avestment than the purchase of
a few acres of logged-of lands in
western Washington at the present
time, clearing itand planting it to
cherries. The man who has 2 ten-
acre cherry orchard in this part of
the world, after it gets in bearing,
will'have an annual income consld-
erably higher than is earned by the
average professional man, herd or
anywhere else.
If the land hungry, who have been
so much in evidence in tho recent
Tush to take up opened Indian reser
vations, will look over the opportu-
nities open here, they will find thou-
sands of opportunities for homes.—
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. .
Weight of Eggs.
Thefe is a decided difference tn the
weight of eggs from pullets and hens,
and of those laid by different breeds.
‘These figures are approximately cor-
rect: Single Comb Brown Leghorns,
pullets, 17% ounces per dozen; hens,
21%% ounces. Light Brahmas, pul-
Jets, 223% ounces; hens, 28 ounces.
Black Langshans, pullets, 24 ounces:
ns, 26% ounces. Pekin ducks,
35% ounces. :
Handling Fowls.
“It is well to handle fowls occasion-
ally after they have gone to roost.
It tames them. Also feel their crops
and see if they are well filled, bit
‘not gorged. A little’ grain thrown
into Mtter at night, glves the fowls
something to do when they come off
the roost. If no rats are troubling,
the morning feed may be put out in
the ltter when poultry house is
closed for the night.
Sunflower Seeds Useful.
Some sunflower seeds should be
planted arounG edge of yards for
shade, it no other fs accessible, until
a few fruit trees can grow large
enough for shade. Sunflower seeds
arp good for fowls, especially at
moulting season, so be sure to plant
a few every year. Get the large
kind.—Mrs. J. C. Deaton.

Snake Meets Retribution.
Indigestion caused the death of a
huge blacksnake, which was found dy
Samuel Owens at Bridgeville, Del,
and ‘which, when cut open, was dis-
covered to contain a china egy. +
For some tlme Owens had been
micsing eggs from the chicken-house,
but was not able to find the thief.
Yesterday, while walking down a path
in a meadow lot near home, he no-
ticed a large blacksnake stretched out
tn front of him, Examination showed
{t had recently. died. Owens noticed
@ lump in the middle of the snake
and, beiog curious as to what it con-
tained, whipped out his knife and cut
the snake open, when a white glass
egg, similar to those used to fool a
hen Into laying in a certain nest,
rolled out.
‘Owens has no doubt but that the
snake was the thief that has been
robbing his nests.—Inter-Ocean.

ELECTRICAL SHOCKS 10 DESTROY EVERY WARSHIP AFLOAI
Lewis Nixon Says Currents Flashed Through Air is Battle Hethod of Fulure—Nt
Danger From Airships—Destruction So Terrible That Nations _ +
DMs Will Be Forced to International Peace.
STARVING ESKIMO SLAYS HIS CHILD.
EXPERTS TO ADVISE PITTSBURG.
ew York City. —- Lewis Nixon,
shipbuilder, graduate of the United
States Navai Academy and for several
years one of the chiet constructors of
the American navy, flouts the theory
that the aitsbip in’ any of its forms
‘will become @ formidable war ma-
chine.
Instead, Mr. Nixon believes that
the death-dealing terror of the wir of
the future will be the electric shock.
This conclusion has been forced
upon his judgment by a careful study
of the subject of new war agencies
and by closely watching the manoeu-
vres of the Wright aeroplane as it
Sailed up the Hudson and circled the
representatives of the world’s great-
est navies,
In Mr. Nixon's opinion warships
can guard against the danger of ex-
plosives that might be dropped upon
them by airships by specially pre-
pared armor. He belleves, though,
that sooner or later there will be per-
fected a gun or some other piece of
xaechaniam for hurling a thunderbolt
that will shock to death every man
aboard a warship, Irrespective of its
protection.
“I am convinced," said Mr. Nixon
to a reporter, “that the thing could
be done now, but the mechanism is
‘so crude that the thunderbolt, or elec-
tric impulse, would Lill the man who
should release it, as well as the en-
emy. It is possible, of course, that
some foreign nation ‘already has per-
fected thé necessary machine with
cwhich to hurl this deadly bolt. I
‘hope, however, that it has not been
done. When the principle {s mast-
-ered the result will make war £0 hor-
ribly destructive that the human race,
sthrough the sheer force of nature's
Yirst law — self-preservation — will
abolish war.
“The aeroplane is mainly interest-
{ng now on account “of the fact of
what may grow from it. Possibly we
shall see them like swarms of giant
locusts flying over and beyond armies,
to‘occupy positions and to cut of
communications.
“For purposes of observation they
cwill be of great use. The helicopter,
owing to its smaller dimensions, seems
best adapted to such uses. especially
ito be carried on men-of-war.
“Jnsofar as I can see, the dirigibie,
which will combine much that the
aeroplane fs now proving out, is:the
ship of the future.

‘an Eskimo, driven to cannibalism. by
starvation, who ate his child and shot

mary punishment. .
