CHANGES ARE VERY SLIGHT Revision Will Hold Until End of Trading Year—Penalties Against Low Grade Cotton Reduced 15 to 25 Per Cent. New York City.—The meeting of the revision committee of the New York Cotton Exchange was held, and differences applying to the delivery of cotton in contract were fixed for the balance of the trade Widespread interest has been foll in the action and after the result of the committee's deliberations had been made known more or less general satisfaction was expressed, as the changes were comparatively light, amounting to a reduction of from 13 to 25 points in the penalties against low grade cotton, of which there is comparatively little in the local stock at the present time and which is also reported to be scarce in the south. The committee also fixed differences on the quarter grades, of white cotton which will be delivered on contract after the first of March. The differences fixed go into effect immediately. The following table will show the new differences compared with those fixed last September. FLAMES RAGING-ABOUT CORPSES: Little Hope of Seeing Bodies of the Mine Victims. Cherry, Ill.—The St. Paul coal mine, in which are still entombed the bodies of three hundred or more miners, a result of last Saturday's fire, still refuses to yield up the dead. Utter failure to devise any satisfactory method of recovering the bodies leaves the situation the same. The interior of the mine is burning almost as fiercely as ever. The partial opening of the seal over the mouth of the holsting shaft allowed puffs of smoke to escape, showing the fury of the internal combustion. Some assert that the internal fires are so intense that the mine may have to be sealed up for weeks before it will be safe to enter. So great has been the anguish and mental strain that it is feared many women are on the verge of insanity. REPENTENT GAMBLER. Race Track Man Desires to Pay Back All Losers. Kansas City, Mo.—One of the strangest wills ever made here came to light when the last testament of George Brown, Jr., well known as a gambler and race horse man, was filmed in the probate court. "It is my desire, as far as possible," the will reads, "to repay every person, man, woman or child, any money which I may have won from them by gambling during my life time, and I direct my executors to make effort to learn their names and reimburse them to the full amount with interest from the day the money was won." WASHINGTON CALLS ON PRESIDENT. Support of President Taft Asked for Great Negro Exposition. Washington, D. C.—Booker T. Washington headed a committee which called at the white house to solicit the support of President Taft for a movement which has been started by colored people throughout the country. Looking toward the holding of an exposition in 1913 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the freedom of the negro race in America. The exposition idea is to show the negro's progress during the fifty years of his freedom as compared with the progress that he made during slavery days. COTTON TRUST HAS RIVAL: Garner Mill, in New York, Will Be Run Independently. - New York City.—The Marquise de Bruteel and her sister, Lady William Gordon-Cumming, formerly known in this country as the Garner girls, have just closed a deal with southern and eastern cotton manufacturers for the sale of the vast cotton print manufacturing plants in northern New York, which they had inherited from their father. It is said that the purchasers are thus freed from the yoke of the cotton trust, which operates in the New England States, and will be able to reduce the price of the goods. The price paid for the mill was $15,000,000. TELEPHONE-TELEGRAPH MERGER. American Telephone Company Buys The Western Union. New York City. — The American Telephone and Telegraph company announced that it had secured a substantial minority interest in the stock of the Western Union telegraph company and that hereafter the two companies-would work in close harmony. The telephone trust has been buying Western Union stock for several years. It is also largely interested in the Mackay company. It is proposed to consolidate offices of the Western Union z' the telephone trust. The Acquisition of the Western Union and the recent absorption. of various Bell telephone companies in various parts of the country indicates a large increase in the present capitalization of the present company, the American Telephone and Telegraph company. The present capital stock of the American Telephone and Telegraph company is $300,000,000 in stock and $228,000,000 in bonds. Officials of the Postal Telegraph company declared that their company would remain on an independent basis. The United States government has begun an investigation, into the merger between the Western Union Telegraph Company and the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, with a view to dissolving the combination if it is found to violate the antimonny laws.

His physical health may be better in the country, but that is only one-fourth of it." WAGES WAR ON BEETLE. Department of Agriculture Has Started Campaign. Washington, D. C.—The department of agriculture has begun a campaign of extermination against a beetle that is causing much damage to pine logs in the South Atlantic states. This beetle is known as the Southern Pina sawyer, and investigations made show that in Massachusetts alone, from 75 to 90 per cent of the trees, the beetle is a form we infested. It is estimated that storms that passed over the southern states in 1907 and 1908 blew down more than two billion feet of lumber, and all of it was damaged by the sawyer. FRIEND OF GIRLS DEAD.

NATIONAL BANKS TAXABLE Arkansas Given Right to Tax its National, Banks. Little Rock, Ark—The decision of the supreme court in the case of the First National Bank of Batesville, Ark., is of importance in that it establishes the principle that national banks are as taxable as state banks.

Thanksgiving Proclamation Issued by President Taft Washington, D. C.—President Taft has issued his Thanksgiving proclamation, naming Thursday, November 25, as the date for the observance. The proclamation says, in part: "During this past year we have been highly blessed. No great calamities of flood or tempest or epidemic sickness have befallen us. We have lived in quietness, undisturbed by wars or rumors of wars. Peace and the plenty of bountiful crops and of great industrial production animate a cheerful and resolute people to all the renewed energies of beneficent industry and material and moral progress. It is altogether fitting that we should humbly and gratefully acknowledge the divine source of these blessings. "Therefore, I appoint Thursday, the twenty-fifth day of November, as a day of general thanksgiving, and I call upon the people on that day, laying aside their usual vocations, to repair to their churches and unite in appropriate services of praise and thanks to Almighty God." SOLDIERS-DESERTING Many Enlisted Men Are Taking "French Leave" of the Army. STRENGTH OF ARMY 81,778 Abolition of Canteen, Increase of Work Demanded and Prosperity Responsible for Desertions. Washington, D. C.—Continued extensive desertions in the United States army during the last fiscal year forms the elading feature of the annual report of Adjutant General Alnsworth. After showing that 4,993 men deserted from the enlisted force of the regular army, General Alnsworth concludes that, only a strict enforcement of severe penalties will diminish materially the practice of taking "French leave" on the part of the soldiers. He regards as rather alarming the fact that the number of desertions during the last fiscal year was greater than in the preceding twelve months. Of the whole number of enlisted men 4.97 per cent deserted during the last fiscal year, while the desertions of the preceding year amounted to 4.59 per cent. General Atnsworth says the abolition of the calteen, the monotony of garrison life, the increasing amount of work and study demanded of a soldier and the ease with which remunerative employment can be obtained in civil life in these prosperous times are causes of the evils mentioned. The percentage of desertions among the white troops is about ten times greater than among the colord men in the service. Of the men who deserted during the year 1,013 were apprehended and 215 surrendered. On October 15 the actual strength of the army, including the Philippine scouts, was 81,778, while on the same day one year previously the actual strength was 78,166. Thanksgiving Procl Issued by E Washington, D. C.—President Taft ing proclamation, naming Thursday, for the observance. The proclamation says, in part: "During this past year we have great calamities of flood or tempest befallen us. We have lived in quiet or rumors of wars. Peace and the plight of great industrial production animal people to all the renewed energies of material and moral progress. It is should humbly and gratefully acknowl these blessings. "Therefore, I appoint Thursday, the vember, as a day of general thanksgiving people on that day, laying aside their to their churches and unite in approvals to Almighty God. (Signed.) SEEKING HOMES IN SOUTH. Influx of Steelers Predicted by Sec retary Wilson. Washington, D. C.-Secretary Wilson, of the department of agriculture, is not satisfied with the advancement of the south agriculturally as compared with its gains in manufacture. He has just returned from the annual meeting of the National Farmers' congress at Raleigh, N. C., and while in that state he made an investigation of its agricultural development. His inquiry has not satisfied him. While the manufacturers of that section have wrested control of the cotton and other mills from outsiders, he has been keeping up to the same standard of enterprise. During his visit to North Carolina, the secretary visited Raleigh, Durham and Greensboro, making excursions from those points into the adfacente country. Mr. Wilson declared that within the near future there is certain to be an influx of northern and western farmers to North Carolina and other southern agricultural states, for the northern and western lands can be sold at a price per acre sufficient to buy two acres in the south. INDIANS MAY LEAVE Sioux Tribe of Indians Preparing to Move to Nicaragua. Boston, Mass.—With plans practically completed to remove one of the most famous tribes of Indians out of the United States into Nicaragua, Chief Bison of the Sioux Indians sailed for Port Limon. Chief Bison is going south to confer-with the president of Nicaragua, and his cabinet regarding the removal of the entire tribe from their reservations in South Dakota to plantations in the Central American republic. CASTRO IS COMING. Ex-Dictator, Trusts in the Fairness of American People. Paris, France—Ex-President Castro of Venezuela, according to a special dispatch from Madrid, says that he will remain at Malaga until the end of the year and that he will then go to the United States to live confident of the spirit of justice and the fairness of the American people. "When the American people know the facts of the case," he said, "they will no longer believe that I have revolutionary ambitions, and they will see that great damage has been inflicted on American interests in Venezuela by the American government's attitude in helping Gomez." CAPTAIN SHIPP SENTENCED. Ex-Sheriff of Chattanooga Gets Ninety Days in Jail. Washington, D. C.—The supreme court of the United States pronounced sentence in the case of former Sheriff Joseph F. Shipp, former Deputy Sheriff Jeremiah Gibson and Henry Padgett, Luther Williams, Nick Nolan and William Mays, all of Chattanooga, Tenn., charged with contempt of that court. Shipp, Williams and Nolan were sentenced to ninety days and Gibson, Mays and Padgett to sixty days in the District of Columbia United States jail. Williams' attorneys asked that they be allowed to serve the sentence in some southern jail because of his ill health. The application was denied. Chief Justice Fuller in delivering sentence said in part: "You have been fully heard orally and by printed brief and after further consideration you have been found guilty. You have also been permitted severally to present petitions for rehearings and move that leave be granted you to file them, which, after consideration, have been denied. We need nt dwell on the restrictive consequences of permitting the transactions complained of to pass into a precedent for unpunished contempt." The contempt cases grew out of the lynching of Ed Johnson, a negro, convicted of assault on a young lady four years ago. Attorneys for Johnson carried the case to the supreme court and it was while pending a hearing on the appeal and Johnson was in the county jail at Chattanooga in care of Sheriff Shipp, that the prison was stormed and the negro lynched. The trial of Johnson was 'very dramatic. The assaulted girl, who was seriously injured, was the principal witness and fainted several times during the trial. After the trial she was taken to the home of relatives in Indiana, where she died within a short time. Captain Shipp, who is an ex-confederate soldier, spent a small fortune in defending his case, then friends came to his assistance and it has gone through all the courts. Proclamation by President Taft Taft has issued his Thanksgiving rday, November 25, as the date part: have been highly blessed. No impest or epidemic sickness have a quietness, undisturbed by wars the plenty of bountiful crops and animate a cheerful and resolute ties of beneficent industry and It is altogether fitting that we acknowledge the divine source of today, the twenty-fifth day of No- nanksgiving, and I call upon the their usual vocations, to repair appropriate services of praise and "WILLIAM H. TAFT." Dr. M. Arthur Replies to Bishop Candler New York City. — In commenting upon the opposition of Bishop Candler to accepting the Rockefeller gift for stamping the hook worm disease in the south, Rev. R. S. McArthur declares that John D. Rockefeller is to be highly honored. "For his gifts to education, to medical discovery and to his distinctive religious work, unborn generations will rise up to honor Rockefeller's name when all his critics are forgotten," said Dr. Arthur. Governor Haskell Must Stand Trial. Chickkaaha, Okla.—Federal Judge J. A. Marshall overruled the demurrier filed by Governor Charles M. Haskell and five other Oklahomaans to indictments charging them with fraudulently securing from the government title to a large number of town lots in Muscogee, Okla. Llabilities, $12,000., Assets One Dog. New York City—William D. Adams, a former heating contractor, who has filed a petition in bankruptcy with liabilities of $12,000, declares his only asset is one dog, value not given. Under the law this dog will be hold or disposed of for the benefit of creditors. Newsy Paragraphs. Silas Morgan, living on Whidbee Island, Washington, found several dozen cans containing a substance resembling paint, and believing a case ef. red paint had washed ashore, painted his house with 'the material. On taking a sample to town he was told that the sticky find was pure opium, and each can was worth about $300. As he had used or spilled nearly thirty cans of the opium, he wasted more than $9,000. After a search lasting more than twenty years, Edward Williams of Vallejo, Cal., found his daughter, Mrs. M. Jackson, at her home in Chicago. Twenty-three years ago Mrs. Williams and her one-year-old daughter left Williams' home and disappeared. He searched for them for several years, but failed to find any trace of his wife and daughter. Laura Livandals of an old Louisiana family, was arrested in New Orleans accused of smuggling hundreds of Chinamen from a Mexican port to New Orleans. The woman engineered giant smuggling schemes, it is charged, aided by Nick Stratokas and Charley Chun, who were arrested with her. The smuggled Chinamen were sent to New York; it is charged. MONEY FOR GOOD ROADS $30,000,000 to Be Expended in South and West for Highways. LAND VALUES INCREASING Improved Roads in North Carolina Added $85 to Value of Each Acre of Farm Land on the Highways. Savannah, Ga.—Figures just gathered from fourteen states show an unprecedented movement throughout the south and west for improved highways. Contracts proposed or already entered on call for the expenditure of between $25,000,000 and $30,000,000. But for the intense prejudice against automobiles it is estimated fully $60,000,000 would now be available for better roads. In Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, and Oklahoma state convicts are being largely used. In parts of Missouri the money from saloon licenses is appropriated for the purpose. In Kentucky the county courts set apart a certain sum to be matched with equal amounts by citizen. In Alabama the new roads are paid for, half by the county and half by the community. In some parishes of Louisiana the police jury fees pay for new roads. There is a notable lack of county engineers and much incompetent supervision in all parts of the south. But in the aggregate a tremendous amount of work is being done. Grades have been reduced, roads have been clayed, iron or steel bridges have replaced wooden ones and sewer drainage has been installed in the low places. In Kentucky $25,000 a year in each county is being raised by taxation, for gradual improvement. The owners of timber and mineral lands are joining in putting good roads through the hill regions. Drought in parts of Texas, three crop failures in succession in districts in Missouri and the boll weevil in Mississippi have delayed bond issues or other provisions. The last year's figures for actual expenditures in the south for improved roads are as follows: Alabama, $1,576,000; Arkansas, $1,400,000; Florida, $78,000; Georgia, $2,100,000; Louisiana, $25,000; Missouri, $870,000; Mississippi, $1,615,000; North Carolina, $1,359,000; Oklahoma, $775,000; South Carolina, $746,000; Tennessee, $1,662,000; Texas, $4,138,000; Virginia, $688,000; West Virginia, $883,000. Thirty-odd counties in the adjoining states of Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina are co-operating in the building of a continuous highway seven hundred and fifty miles in length. It is to be known as the "Capital Highway," and will connect Richmond, Raleigh, Columbia and Atlanta. From Richmond it leads to Washington. More than four thousand four hundred convicts are now employed in improving southern highways. More than $1,720,000 has been expended in the United States on so-called good roads. There are now 43,450 miles of machines and 124,468 miles of gravel roads. About $70,000,000 a year is now being spent in the whole country in the work of improving old roads and building new ones. WALKED 60 MILES TO JAIL. After Making Year's Crop Kentucky Man Returned to Prison. Frankfort, Ky.—After assuring the comfort of his mother, his wife and his children, Rice Combs walked 60 miles in order to return to the jail here, from which he escaped last spring. Combs had just begun a sentence of sixty days for a minor offense, when he heard that his old mother was ill at his home in Knott county. He escaped from prison to go to her bedside. It was seed time when he reached home and Combs planted corn, potatoes, harley, hay and vegetables, tended them in the long, hot months, harvested them this fall, and when the winter's provisions were safely stored, he gave obedience to his country's laws according to his understanding of justice. The nearest railroad was at Jackson, 60 miles from his farm house, and toward Jackson he strode, going back to jail in order that no power except his family should have any claim hanging over him. G. & F. ROAD IS OPENED. Road Was Built and Formed by Purchase of Short Lines. Augusta, Ga. — The Georgia and Florida Railway has opened through train service from Augusta to Madison, Fla. The road will operate a solid train daily between Augusta, Ga., and Madison, Fla., using the Central of Georgia Railway between Augusta, Ga., and Millen, Ga., connecting at Vidalia, from and to Savannah and points west of Vidalia from the Seaboard Air Line Railway, from Macon via Macon, Dublin and Savannah Railway, and at Hazelhurst, Douglas, Willacooche, Valdosta. Madison with connecting railways. LATE NEWS NOTES. The first wireless message from the Great Lake to the Gulf of Mexico was inaugurated last week by two newspapers, the Chicago Record-Herald and the Houston Post. The distance covered is nine hundred miles and the return message was received in just twenty minutes. The Virginia legislature, which meets in January, will be asked to pass a law prohibiting the playing of football in Virginia, or at least placing such restrictions on the game as to reduce the danger to life and limb. This plan is the result of a campaign by the death of two players this year. Fred D. Warren, editor of the Socialist Appeal to Reason of Girard, Kans., who was sentenced to six months in jail and a fine of $1,500 for sending through the mails an offer of a reward of $1,000 for the kidnapping of former Governor William S. Taylor of Kentucky has filed the record for an appeal in the federal court of appeals at St. Louis. In an effort to discover the cause and remedy for pellegra, a series of experiments on monkeys is being conducted at the New Orleans Pasteur institute. Inoculated two weeks ago with the blood from a victim of pellegra, the simians are being carefully watched for a possible development of the symptoms of the disease. It was said, however, that thus far they had failed to respond to the infection. Howard Bennett of Beloit, Wis., is said to have discovered a new subelement, not unlike the waves of wireless telegraphy, but differing in many essentials from electricity. He is developing machines to utilize a mysterious power, which we discover as a accident. Details of the discovery are being kept secret until patents are secured. Howard Bennett is a sophomore in Beloit college. Those who are acquainted with the discovery say it is one of the wonders of the age. "If the American people could be cut off from the influence of Europe for three years the effects on American art and literature would be not only vastly beneficial, but positively astounding. Native genius, would, in that time, lay the foundations of a literature and an art that would be typically American and Americans would then begin to produce an art and a literature that could be recognized as American the moment they were seen." This was the declaration of Dr. Frederic van Eeden, the noted Dutch dramatist, novelist and scientist, to a Chicago society. Washington. The fine of $5,000 assessed by the collector of the port of Mobile against the Norwegian bark Hodving, for entering port without a bill of health from an American consul in South Africa, has been reduced to $25 by the treasury department. A gobbler weighing fifty-one pounds a whopping turkey, so fat that he can hardly hobble, is to fall before the axe in a few days to grace the Thanksgiving table of the biggest (avolrdupols) president that has ever sat at Washington. Ever since the first year of General Grant's term in the white house Horace Vose, Westerly, R. L., has supplied American presidents with their Thanksgiving turkey. The bird he sends to President Taft this year is the largest one that Vose has ever raised. While General Marshall recommends in his annual report that $36,000,000 be carried by the next rivers and harbors bill, it is probable that the secretary of the treasury in his annual estimates to congress the first day of the session will cut this down some $20,000,000. The agitation for a $500,000,000 bond issue and the meetings of waterways conventions all over the country will likely result in a rather liberal rivers and harbors bill framed, on the usual lines by the house and senate committees. The employer's liability law of 1905 was declared to be constitutional in territories of the United States and the District of Columbia by the supreme court of the United States; of fact that more than a year ago this law was declared to be unconstitutional when applied to the states. The question arose in a suit for damages for the death of an employee named Giluzere on the El Paso and Northeastern railroad in New Mexico. That there will be no pardon from the white house for Samuel-Gompers, John Mitchell and Frank Morrison of the American Federation of Labor, in case the supreme court of the United States upholds the lower court and finds their guilty of contempt, is a fact strongly indicated by the, failing of former Sherif Shipp of Chattanooga, and his associates. The department of justice has come to the conclusion that Sherif Shipp and the men sentenced with him for contempt of the United States supreme court cannot be pardoned. The secretary of the navy has approved the recommendation of the superintendent of the Naval academy for the dismissal of Cadet John P. Hyman of South Carolina. General inaptitude, which has caused seven other cadets to leave the academy this year, is the cause of the dismissal of Hyman. Commander Peary, the Artic explorer, will be promoted to the rank of captain October 20, 1910, according to Assistant Secretary Winthrop of the navy department. On that date Captain U. S. G. White will be retired on account of age. Peary is the only civil engineer in the navy with the rank of commander, and his promotion to a captaincy will come as a natural advancement. &. B.

Atlanta, Ga.—There has just been issued by the department of agricul. ture at the state capitol, bulletin No. 50, which contains the ‘law authoriz- ing control of contagious and infec- tous diseases of animals and regula- tlons concerning cattle ticks and Tex: -as or tick fever,” which “Is to be had by the. planters, dairymen and live stock raisers of Georgia upon applica- tfon at the department of agriculture. This bulletin, according to those who have read it, is one of the most interesting which has recently been issued. It was prepared by Assistant Commicsioner cf Agriculture R. F. Wright, who is in charge cf the cam- paign to drive the cattlé tick from ‘Georgia, assisted by Professor B. L. Willoughby, director of the Bureau ef Live Stock and Animal Husbandry near Griffin. In addition to the laws on ‘this sub ject there is also contained the rules end regulations concerning cattle tle and Texas tick fever, promulgated by Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson, which went into eficct in! this state on Octobed 1, 1909. There is a history of the tick and also tae {évers which have so greatly retarded the cattle raising industry up to this date, But, perhaps the mest interesting rection cf this bulletin, is under the caption: “How to free cattle and pas- tures of {tcks,’ which contains the Mest improved methods of combating this growing evil, the most methods hemg outlined as follows: el Greazing the animals all over thor- oughly with cotton seed oil, fish oil, or Beaumont crude petroleum will as- sist in preventing the ticks from get- ting upc them and destroy the ticks giready onethem. A mixture of one gallon of kerosene; one gallon of cot- ton seed oil, and one pound of sulphur has proved effective when used two or three times a week during the tick season, It @nould-be applied with a eponge, syringe, brush, mop or broom, The bulletin is handsomely illus- trated and is sure to make a distinct hit among those into whose hands it falls. It has just been delivered by the state printer and fs now ready for distribution. a HISS BENNING HEADS D. A.B. Savannah Gets the Next Meeting ‘of Revolution Daughters. .

IMPORTANE COMMISSIUN BECISION. Columbus Light Rates Ordersd Re- duced by Railroad Board, Atlanta, Ga.—The railroad commis- ston passed an order materially re- ducing the rates In Columbus for gas and electricity, used in business hous- es and residénces for illuminating purpeses, The case was brought sev- eral months ago by the city of Co- lumbus, and the defendants were the Columbus Railroad company, which sells- electricity, and the Gas_ Light company of Columbus, which furnish- es gag The companies have stub- bornly resisted any change in the present scale af rates. zt The commissions order completely revises the scale of rates for electric- ity, using the same general system as heretofore in force, but reducing prices by approximately 10 per cent. A minimum charge of 10 cents per fnonth for each 16-candlepower lamp installed is fixed, That is a Dig re- duction over the former charge. The minimum rate for residences and churches {s fixed at $1 per month.

They have been feeling the need of money and eeveral days ago Governor Brown drew checks for $1,000 for each of the schools from an appropriation fund provided by the legislature, but found after a consultation with At- torney General Hart and Comptroller General Wright that he would be ur able to send these checks. This re- sulted from the arrangements made for the support of the schools.

In other words, it the inspection fees should amount to $10,000 a yeag for each school, then {his appropriation would not be need- ed and would not be used. If these fees gave the schools $9,000 a Year then the governor would be empower- ed to draw checks from the speciai fund for $1,000 to make up the $10,000. In no case should the schools receive more than $10,000. However, the gov- ernor fg not-allowed to use his discre- tion in the matter, He cannot act upon belief. He must be certain, For this reason he is not allowed to send checks for the $2,000 ‘duo these schools until the year is over and it ls proved beyond a doubt that the schools will not be taken caro of out of the proceeds of inspetcion fees alone. At present, accrding to wellIn- formed parties, however, the schools will not receive from the fees more than $6,000, which added to the spec- fal fund will make just $8,000, leaving the total receipts of the institutions $2,000 under the mavimum allowed by law.

"Twenty-nine from seventy-five leaves forty-six," she murmured to herself. "Even then it won't be so very much. The silk in that waist is worse than a second, and the hat looks as though it came off a bargain counter—which it did." The frown deepened and the pencil made uncertain, imaginary lines in midair. which the girl could had gently parried his This morning, he touched the right coresponded. He had his samples and stopp "Gee, but I dread morrow! Holidays ways lonesome if you lot of people." Mary nodded her been dreading Thank "I tell you what," man. "let's celebrate "Oh, dear, what's the use of living in a city and being nobody—because it takes a million to be somebody?" —A. H. Coonradt, Illinois, in Leslie's. She flung down the pencil and the book, marched over to the bureau, and resting the palm of her hands on its top, she studied the reflection in the mirror. Yes, she was pretty! And she didn't need a mirror to tell her so. The admiring glances of men who passed her on the street and the outspoken admiration or unveiled jealousy of the girls—in the store where she clerked had told her this every day since she had come to town. And with a certain sense of satisfaction she realized further that she was a very different girl from the frightened country lassie who had started in as a wrapper at Blank & Dash's department store two years back. It had been a hard struggle. She had lived at first at a working girl's home, but as her salary had been gradually raised she had gone to a more attractive boarding-house. Still she realized more and more each day that she was a mere atom in this city life. She had made a few acquaintances at the church where she had enrolled, but Sunday often found her too tired to leave the house, or she had a little washing or mending to do. Somehow she had never been able to fraternize with the girls at the store, and the invitations which she had received from callow youths who shared her work behind the counter had been unattractive. Very different had been her picture of the new life in Boston, when, in defiance of the wishes of her family, and of Jim Coleman, who had been her avowed suitor ever since he had carried her books to the district school, she had turned her back on Newton Village and her face toward Boston. She was going to see life. She was going to be one of those bachelor maids that she had read about. She would be a part of the picture and action of the great city, and now, today, she realized for the first time that she had an opportunity to take part in the glittering side of life. She had received an invitation from Harold Goldman, who sold the firm buttons and buckles. It was at this counter that Mary worked, and young Goldman had been attracted to her from-the-first, but for some reason DANZAN Thanks for the highest blessings Thy matchless loves are given, Faith in the world's Redeemer, Hope of a home in heaven. Thanks for the disappointments That oft our hopes assail; They teach us to look forward to the day that we are And so, though tears are falling O'er joys forever flown, We thank Thee for the sorrows Our human hearts have known. which the girl could not explain she had gently parried his invitations. This morning, however, he had touched the right cord and she had responded. He had been folding up his samples and stopped suddenly. "Gee, but I dread the day after tomorrow! Holidays in town are always lonesome if you don't know a lot of people." Mary-nodded her head; she had been dreading Thanksgiving Day. "I tell you what," continued Goldman, "let's celebrate together. You put on your glad rags and we'll go to the——" (A fashionable cafe for the Bohemian and theatrical set). Just for a minute Mary's eyes sparkled. She realized that the girls within earshot were consumed with envy. Then something in her Puritan up-bringing rebelled. A hotel dinner on Thanksgiving Day; a show instead of a quiet evening with relatives and friends around the family heartstone. But only for an instant did this thought obtrude. She had always wanted such experiences. Goldman was a salesman; he could afford it. She accepted promptly. Then she went upstairs to the suit department with the firm intention of purchasing the "glad rags" to which Goldman had referred. Still, night found her with the raiment unpurchased. "It is so cheap," she sighed to herself, as she thought of the factory-made silk gown and the ready-to-wear hat at which she had looked. Another thing that bothered her was the fact that she could not forget the imitation jewelry Goldman wore, and a certain obnoxious brilliance that she had noted at times in his eyes. His conversation, too, was not the sort Mary had been accustomed to WHO'LL GET THE TH ```markdown ``` in her social life at home. It was the jargon of the city shops, of the girls she did not like. She did not so much object to drawing her savings from the bank to buy the clothes as she did object to wearing them. Something within her cried out against mock finery. She was still debating the question when a knock sounded at her door. The mald handed her a bulky express package addressed in her father's stiff, irregular handwriting. Mary ripped the cords and an exclamation, half laughing, half tearful, escaped her lips. Pies and cakes there were, home-made cheese, nuts and ears of popcorn, raised on the farm. She read the note with brimming eyes: "Dear Daughter—I reckon you can get ples in Boston, but not the kind your mother makes. We are sending you this, thinking perhaps you might give some of your girl friends a treat on Thanksgiving night, and wishing you could spare the money to come home for the Thanksgiving dinner. Maybe another year you can do so. Of course we know it costs you an awful lot to live in town, and things have not gone very well on the farm this year, so we can't afford to send you the money. We'll be thinking of you, though, on Thanksgiving Day. Mary read the letter through twice. Girl friends! She had none. She hardly knew the people in the house where she boarded. She thought of the seventy-five dollars in the bank. What had she been saving it for? To buy fine clothes, when she became part of the city life; and how far would seventy-five dollars go? She asked the question bitterly. All of a sudden she seemed to see her mother in the big, cheerful kitch- ```markdown ``` en, singing over the preparations for a Thanksgiving dinner. But would she be singing with a daughter far away from her in a strange, lonesome city? No, they did not look on her as being lonesome; no doubt she was having a very good time, for Mary had always kept up appearances in her letters. And then she happened to see the pqstscript on the back of her father's note: "Jim Coleman bought Deadcon Wilson's store at the Corners. He's fixing it up in good shape, and they say that Myra Wilson's going to stay and clerk for him." Just how it happened Mary could never tell, but suddenly the picture of Goldman, the salesman in his mock jewelry, came, before her and offended her mental vision. It was 4 o'clock the next day before she thought of him again, she had been so busy with her preparations to leave town. Now she hurried to the telephone. "Oh, Mr. Goldman," she exclaimed as she heard his voice at the other end of the wire, "I am going home for Thanksgiving, so I can't take dinner with you to-morrow night." "Well, you're a wonder," in disgusted accents, "to throw a fellow down like this at the last minute. You're a peacherino, that's what you are." The rebuke fell on heedless cars. Mary's next visit was to the telegraph office. She wrote three messages and tore them up. The final one said: "James Coleman, Newton MENU Oyster Soup Frozen Turkey, Gobble Gravy Chicken Fry Dulled Turkey, Oyster Sauce Poultry Ham Cumberberry Salad Mashed Potato, Puffed Onions Stewed Carrot, Chicken Pumpkin Pie Indian Fudging Nuts, Apples Raisin Coffee Village: Send word to mother I'll be home for Thanksgiving and always." "Myra Wilson, indeed," she murmured, as she made her way to the superintendent's desk to hand in her resignation. "I guess. I can give her pointers on clerking." The train slowed up at Newton Village. As she sprang from the steps of the car the figuro she was looking for loomed up in the keen November twilight. "Oh, Jim!" was all she said, but the man understood, and as he tucked her into the sleigh he looked straight into her eyes. "I reckoned if anything would bring you back Thanksgiving would." She bent forward so that he could hardly catch the words: "But it wasn't Thanksgiving Day, Jim, it was—you."—McCall's Magazine. ANKSGIVING DINNER? —Life. Decoration of the Table. The decorations of the Thanksgiving table should be such as to suggest the wealth of the harvest. In the centre of the table a low platter concealed by brilliant autumn leaves may hold a bouquet of red-cheeked apples, grapes and other fruits in place of the ferns and flowers so often used. A centrepiece of autumnal ferns ranging in color from white to pale yellow and green is sometimes effective. Any one a little skilful with the brush can easily paint autumnal dinner cards in the form and hues of autumnal leaves, or the bill of fare may be written on such cards. It is too late to gather autumnal leaves after the rains of November, and all leaves designed to be used as decorations on the Thanksgiving table must be gathered-long before, pressed and prepared for the day. Bright-hued beets, carrots and other vegetables are sometimes simulated with a brush and used for dinner cards at this festival. In reply to L. M. A. we will say that mats are seldom seen on the table to-day if the tablecloth is used. The top of the table is protected from the heat of hot dishes by the thick blanketing that covers it under the tablecloth. When the tablecloth is dispensed with, as it sometimes is, at luncheons and teas, dolls are used under the plates and ornamental mats under dishes. **Gravy For the Turkey.** Boll the gibbles—heart, liver and gizzard—soft, chop fine and add to the brown gravy you usually make. Fried or scalloped oysters may be served with the turkey. Either is better than oyster stuffing, as long cooking spoils the flavor of the oyster. --- THE TURKEY RIDER Thanksgiving Day. New Year's, Day we share with all the world, and Christmas and Easter with all Christendom. The Fourth of July is emphatically our own day, but it is purely patriotic in its significance. Thanksgiving Day is as distinctively American as the Nation's birthday is, and it is-sacred to the two strongest forces in American life. There are plenty of people abroad, and some at home, who do not believe that our people are enlisted for religion for domesticity. But they are. And one evidence of it is this very day of annual observance. It may be quite true that a great part of the population does not go to church on the last Thursday of November, and it is evident that much of the day is devoted to football and other outdoor sports. But the day was never a fast day; quite the contrary; in its primitivo form and its New England surroundings it was a feast day, so far, at least, as the supplies of food permitted. It was a day of public worship and thanksgiving to God, but even the New Englander did not go to church all day; he devoted no inconsiderable share of it to hearty eating. Religion has always been a great power in American society—a fact sometimes lost sight of in the multiplicity of religious bodies; it is sometimes supposed that mere denominational partisanship takes the place of real, deep religious feeling. This is not so. No people in the world are more strongly moved by religious feeling in distinction from religious ceremonial and religious habits, and to no people is it more natural to give thanks to God for national and individual blessings. Some Englishmen come over here, glance at our family hotels and our apartment houses and go back to their own country with the story that there is no home life in America. It is as great a mistake as we Americans make when we imagine the French to be without domesticity because their vocabulary has no precise equivalent for our word "home." The truth is that domesticity is a human and not a national feeling, and if we have no right to claim preeminence in its possession, we are at least justified in claiming to be inferior to no other nation in our love of home and in the strength of our family ties. Thanksgiving Day originated in New England at a time when the colonists had little to give thanks for except that they were still alive. Its observance became national about the time of the Civil War, because that intensified our national feeling, and its result gave us occasion for profound thankfulness. Because it is a day devoted to the recognition of man's dependence upon his Creator, and to reunions of families, it has appealed strongly to fundamental American instincts, and has established itself East and West, North and South. The American people have at this time abundant reason for thankfulness in the continuance of peace; in the abundant harvests, and in the absence of epidemics and calamities. Much as there is to condemn in business and politics, and frequent as are private scandals, we believe that American progress is not limited to the acquisition of wealth, but that the standards of public and private life are slowly advancing; that public spirit and generosity are growing virtues; that domestic virtues were never more esteemed, and that the American people as a whole will be entirely sincere to-day both when they—or a good many of them—assemble in their churches to give thanks to God, and also when around their well loaded dinner tables they renew their expressions of family affection. Be Perempially Grateful. No one can observe Thanksgiving Day as it should be observed unless he has been grateful through the three hundred and sixty-five days of the year before it. And no one has rightly observed Thanksgiving Day unless he has gained an impulse for gratitude through the three hundred and sixty-five days ahead of him.—Russell Sowall. ```markdown ``` THE WARFARE AGAINST DRINK TEMPERANCE BATTLE GATHERS STRENGTH EVERY DAY. Somic Facts About Denmark and the Liquor Curse. In a recent issue of the American Brewers' Review, Chicago, there appeared a detailed "story" attempting to prove that Denmark had "settled" the liquor question by the use of beer and light liquors, and claiming that the people of that northern empire kingdom required stimulants because of the severe climate. In reply to an inquiry made by the Associated Prohibition Press, Miss Astrid Blume, president of the Danish W. C. T. U., forwards a most interesting comment upon the claims made in this leading brewers' journal. Here are some of the claims made by the brewers' article, and the facts as given by the W. C. T. U. president, Miss Blume: The Brewer's Review says: "A distinguished scholar of 'Copenhagen said to me.' The people of this climate can partake freely of stimulants, and, in fact, we must use them." Miss Blume writes: "It is a fact that the leaders of expeditions in search of the North Pole, such as Frithof Nanson (a Norwegian), and others, absolutely forbid stimulants during their journey. They cannot bear the cold if they take a drop of spirits. I think that is a proof against the 'distinguished scholar.'" The Brewers' Review asserts: "Denmark would never submit to any such superficial experiments upon so serious a problem as prohibition." The temperature people in Denmark work for prohibition, and thousands of others have been won for the idea of local option, so we hope are long to get law in that direction." The "distinguished scholar" in the Brewers' Review writes: "In all the Government departments and public works of the Government, such as ship-yards and railway (State) shops, the Government forbids the sale of spirits, but provides the men with light beer; hence we find that Denmark has gone further in favoring beer than any other nation." The fact as stated by Miss Blume is: "I am sorry to say that the 'distinguished scholar' is not quite right on this point. In most of the railway (State) shops you can get all sorts of spirits, and it is no rare sight to see drinking people there. How it is in the public places the Government does not forbid the sale of spirits, only tries to make it easier to get the 'mild beers.'" Perhaps he thought he could impose upon the readers living some 5000 miles away. The Brewers' Review correspondent then proceeds to make the astonishing statement: "I have yet to see a man drunk upon the street or in a public place in Denmark." To which Miss Blume replies: "Drunken people upon the streets and in the public places are a very common sight in Denmark. I am glad to say that you would seldom meet a drunken woman out of doors, still, it may happen. But drunken men! I have seen them in Copenhagen, in the little town where I live myself, in the villages, in the railway stations, in the train, everywhere. I don't know if it is worse in America, but God knows we have—oh, what a quantity of drunken people both indoors and out of doors in Denmark!" In other words, the liquor trade editor is caught once more at his old game, deliberate misrepresentation, to bolster up his fast falling cause. The testimony of the president of the National W. C. T. U., of Denmark, who is herself a resident of Copenhagen, pointedly exposes the dishonesty of the Brewers' Review correspondent. To Learn by Heart. An Englishswoman, who was brought up in Hawarden Castle Orphanage, is responsible for the following. It was learned by heart at Mr. Gladstone's request by every boy or girl who was trained at Hawarden Castle. The orphans were also often spoken to seriously about temperance by Mr. Gladstone himself: Drunkenness' expelle reason. Diminishes strength. Inflames the blood. Causes internal, external and incurable wounds. It's a witch to the senses. * A devil to the soul. A thief to the purse. A beggar's companion. A wife's woe ain't children's sorrow, A man becomes a beast and self-murderer. He drinks to others' good health. And robs himself of his own. Lord Charles Beresford's Experience Lord Charles Beresford's Experience. At Glibraltar, the worthy Admiral said: "When I was a young man I was an athlete. I used to box a great deal, race and steeplechases, play football and go through a number of competitive sports and pastimes. When I put myself in training, which was a continual occurrence, I never drank any wine; spirits were beer at all for the simple reason that I could get fit quicker without any stimulant. I am old and have a position of great sponsibility, often entailing quick thought and determination and instant decision. I drink no wines, spirits or beer—simply because I am more ready for any work imposed upon me day or night; always fresh, always cheery and in good temper." Temperance Notes. the saloon is the plague spot our national life. Figures for the present year will probably show a reduction of ten per cent. in internal revenue. The Good Templars of Nyklohing, Denmark, bought the Harmonian saloon for $5000 and turned it into a temperance hotel. The future 'is for us. National temperance education is going to gradually rear the rising generation to a knowledge, of the evils of alcohol.—Lord Wardale, England. The Sunday Breakfast Table YOU ASK ME, You ask me how I gavemy heart to Christ? I do not know. The morning for Hir' in my soul I weep for something that could satisfy; And then and then—somehow I seemed to be crying. To lift my broken heart to Him in prayer. I do not know—I cannot tell you how; I only know He is my Saviour now. You ask me when I gave my heart to Christ! I cannot tell. The day, or just the hour, I do not now remember well. It must have been when I was all alone The light of His forgiving Spirit shone I should have looked over with sin; I think I think—twas then I let Him in. I do not know—I cannot tell you when; I only know He is so dear since then. You ask me where I gave my heart to Christ! I cannot say. That sacred place has faded from my sight as yesterday. as yesterday. Perhaps He thought it better I should not Romeen where. How I should love that spot! I think I could not tear myself away. For I should wish forever there to stay. I do not know—I cannot tell you where: I only know He came and blessed me there. You ask me why I gave my heart to Christ? I can reply: It is a wondrous story; listen while I tell you. My heart was drawn, at length, to seek His face; I was alone, I had no resting place; I heard how He had loved me with a love of depth so great—of height so far above All humane men; I loved such love to share, And taught it then, upon my knees in prayer. You ask me why I thought this loving prince. Would he need my prayer? I knew He died upon the cross for me— I nailed Him there. I heard His dying cry, "Father, forgive!" I saw Him dram-death's cup that I might My head was bowed upon my breast in shame! He called me—and in penitence I came. He heard my prayer! I cannot tell you Nor when, nor where; only—I love Him now. Self-Pity. One of the most hurtful moods that we can fall into is that of self-pity. It is a babyish, peevish spirit that will weaken us to such an extent that we shall actually become useless for God and shall either die spiritually or have to be petted and carried around like a baby, even though large and full-grown in stature. God has no pets in His family, except those who are young in grace and need to be carried along until they have become strong enough to walk and do for themselves. Self-pity is, we can consistently say, a well-advanced degree of backsliding. It comes along with discouragement, which is but one step from giving up and falling from grace. As soon as we feel inclined to self-pity, we should take a strong stand against it, calling on God for help to overcome the temptation. The more we yield to such a feeling, the more it grows upon us, until we become like a spoiled child and forget all the blessings that God has given us, because He has not given us more. A person in this condition becomes disagreeable to all around him; and instead of being a blessing to any one and of helping to lift up the weak, he himself wants all the blessings and is if dead weight to those around him to put pity on himself in trial—to think that he is having a harder time than any one else in the world. If we would but look around and try to help some one, we should see that our troubles are desirable in comparison with those of some poor souls, and would not exchange places with them for anything. We cannot exercise faith in such a condition of self-pity; and if we do not soon get out of this condition we become an easy victim to almost any kind of evil spirit. Peter thought Jesus ought to pity Himself when he learned that Jesus must go up to Jerusalem and suffer (Matt. 16:22, margin); but Jesus rehuked that feeling and let pet know that (Jesus) would not be so weak and faltering as to yield to the discouraging feeling and give way to His humanity, when it was the will of God that He should suffer. Self needs no pity of this kind. That which God gives is the right- kind. It will come when needed and will do us good. Self-pity is down- right selfishness.—J. W. B., in Gospel Trumpet. Limiting Our Spiritual Resources. God is limited, in His gifts to us, by our gifts to Him. The only man to whom God can give all that He has is the man who has given to God all that he has. In other words a man's partial surrender of himself to God means that he will receive from God what he has given to God. Goodwill like to send him. Limited surrender means limited power. Every time we hold back something that, we ought to give up, we defraud ours selves of part of the power with which God is longing to enrich our lives. The impatient word, the wrong thought which we hold on to when we know that God asks us to give them up, rob us by just so much of the power that He is trying to place at our disposal. The price of unlimited power is unconditional surrender. The Reign of God. The reign of God begins in the human heart by unselfishness, honesty and a hearty support of every enterprise that has for its end the betterment of social, economic and religious conditions. — Rev. G. W. Grinton, Newburgh, N. Y. Graces of Temper. To bear evils with patience extracts from them; their sharpest thorns and gathers from them the sweetest graces of temper.—Rev. J. B. Remensnyder. THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE One Year.....$1.25 Six Months.....-75 Three Months.....-50 Remittance must be made by Express or Post Office Money Order, or Registered Letter. Advertising rates given on application. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Ga. as Second-Class mall matter. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1909 PARENTS should enter more in the lives of their children, make companions of them, direct them in the reading of books, weeding out the vicious ones. THERE is nothing like organization along the right lines. This much is badly needed among the colored business men. A well organized business league would be beneficial to the man in business as well as the people. PRESIDENT TAFT has proclaimed next Thursday as a day of Thanksgiving for blessings received during the year. The day should be well observed by everybody who should give thanks for any form of blessing received. "COLORED skin made lighter" and the "hair made straighter" are some of the abominable things that our people should eschew. We advise always to keep the skin in proper condition and also the hair, but never attempt to cross nature by trying to change your color or the texture of the hair. This is truly abomination in the sight of the Lord. AGAIN has the State of Illinois blacken its name by having disgraceful lynchings. The home of Lincoln, and too, the base of his monument witnessed the mob spirit some time ago, now comes Cairo with a double lynching. The men of the North and West can no longer cry in derision against the South. Matters not where mob rule exists, it is reprehensible, and there is but one place for the members of a mob, and that is in the strongest prison. If not checked the mob spirit will yet get control of this country. We have a number of colored men in business in this city. Many of them can enjoy large trade and have an increasing business, but they have solely the trade that will "drop in now and then." This will not do. They should advertise and let the people know where they are and what they have for sale. The white merchants are compelled to do so; the more they advertise, the larger their business grow. Colored business men should wake up and get in the publicity game. MANY knowing ones have recently expressed themselves for a return of the custom of corporal punishment in a limited degree, in the schools and a hearty cooperation of the home and the school room, and more especially of the confidence of parents in the teacher, and a less upholding of children who are charged with the committing of offenses in school. The lack of corporal punishment in the schools has deterred the manliness and worth of many a child, especially when that child is upheld by a sympathetic parent. At the beginning of the school term THE TRIBUNE appealed for a mutual understanding between the school room and the homes, and a less upholding of children in their contentions about occurrences at school. No parent can expect his boy or girl to amount to anything when they are allowed to speak in undue terms about their teachers without being punished, and if too, that parent is willing to accept the word of their, children about their treatment and fly in a rage at the teacher without first finding out a true version of the affair. It is a blessed thing that all parents are not like the above, and those parents who will not uphold their children are generally blessed with dutiful and obedient ones, who will grow into the age usefulness. The effectiveness of our schools will amount to naught unless the parent cooperate fully with the teacher, and especially in compelling the children to obey and have unbounded respect for the teacher. The 'Cottin' affair at the college is of a too recent occurrence for parents to forget, and what parent would like to have a child guilty of a like offense, and not only that, but even of the offense of being disrespectful in any manner? HAs Senator:Cullom [been inter-terested among those who believe in the elimination of the Negro as a voter? This is a question that the colored yoters of Illinois should ascertain. We have been thinking that the good senator should be more arthodox than to be indulgin in such speed. The Tribune and Improvement. Being an optimist, and seeing and appreciating the growth of our city and the activity of our people upon comprehensive basis, the management of THE TRIBUNE sees the necessity of giving the public a paper that will be a potent factor in the development of the race and the community which it has endeavored to serve for many years. We believe that the colored citizens of Savannah and other sections will substantially support us in putting forth our best efforts in making THE TRIBUNE an organ of such import that it will reflect great credit upon the community and people We intend to only publish such news that will appeal to the best that is in man and feature the best side of Negro life. This is imperative since as a rule, the white press features the criminal element of the race. The subscription from hundreds of citizens must contribute to the success of this higher journalistic movement, hence, our direct appeal to every person of color. We are going to expand a large sum of money in giving the race a first class journal in the states of the Atlantic slope. Mr. Geo. F. King, traveling correspondent for the department of the American Press Association that features the aspirations and achievements of the Negro, and special correspondent for some of the leading white dales, has been stationed in this city and we have secured him to assist us in making THE TRIBUNE a great weekly. Savannah will be Mr. King's headquarters, and he will with his American Press Association work, devote his time especially in our circulation, advertising and "correspondence departments. Having spent his entire time in the North he has sufficient experience to help us. To further this plan we want at once four energetic young ladies, those who believe in making good the main chance. Our plans will give employment to a number of young people. THE Beach Institute is about the first educational institution established in this city for our people. It was established in 1868. The great good that this institution has done for this community is untold. Hundreds of men and women have received their uplift in life from the Beach and all of us of an appreciative turn can do naught but sing the praises of the American Missionary Association and the many teachers who have left their homes to work among us. Beach Institute has done good and under its present management is destined to do even greater good. It is needed in this community and the thoughtful citizens will ever labor for its 'continuance and growth. In this THE TRIBUNE bespeaks the sentiment of those who are interested in the welfare of the community and of our children and also in commending Prof. Weld and his corps of teachers for the work that they are doing. SHERIFF SHIPP and the other Chattanooga men who treated with contempt the Supreme Court of United States in allowing the lynching of Ed. Johnson was sentenced to ninety and sixty days imprisonment, a light sentence for such an offense. The sheriff will make capital out of it by appealing to his people for election as sheriff. An attempt will be made to have the men pardon. On their pardon President Taft's action is awaited with interest. The white citizens of the East side have organized the improvement of their section, especially for the securing of a school house. There is only a handful of children in that locality yet they are clamoring for a building. We have thousands without accommodation and are doing nothing to secure a building for ourselves. Let there be a getting together for the benefit of our children. An appeal has been sent out by the Matron of Charity Hospital to the several churches an invitation to remember the hospital and its inmates on Thanksgiving day. The appeal was a timely one and should be heard and complied with liberally. Charity Hospital is one of our institutions that should be unstintedly supported. The institution is blessed with excellent officials. In giving thanks remember the hospital. The Missionary and Educational Congress. There will be a great meeting held at the First Bryan Baptist Church beginning Thursday night December 2nd and will continue three days. Every minister of the gospel in general and of the Baptist denomination in particular also every member of the church, every lover of the race, every friend to the cause of Jesus is invited to attend these meetings. No greater meeting having for its object the moral and religious uplift of the race and denomination, was ever scheduled to take place in this city. Some of the leading as well as the most intelligent men of both races will be on program. The congress will be conducted by Rev. C. H. Young, who has charge of the Educational and Missionary work under the co-operative plans of the Home Mission Society of New York and the General State Baptist Convention of Georgia. We earnestly urge that the Women's Missionary Clubs and the B. Y.P. U. organizations of the city be represented at this congress. Quite a number of prominent men from out of the city will be present, among whom will be Rev. G. G. Johnson, D.D., of Macon, Ga.; Rev. C. T. Taylor of Florence, S. C.; and Dr. J. S. Kelsey, of Atlanta. A. Worker. Monumental Notes; Monumental Notes; Monumental always lead; she will lead all other churches throughout the state with dollar money, as she leads in proportion at all times. The pastor has gained the influence of the members and friends and he is bound to have success. Last Sunday Dr. Townsley preached three able sermons. November 14, he preached to the Sons and Daughters of the Gospel Messengers, on Thursday night November 18, he preached at Rev. Daughtry's church, Monumental choir rendered sweet music. The pastor seems to be happy now since he has his better-half with him together with his two boys. The auxiliary board gave a grand concert on 8 inst., and it was fine; everybody enjoyed it. On the 15 the Pulpit Supply Board gave a grand concert. Thursday morning at 11 o'clock special Thanksgiving services will be held. Dr Townsley will deliver the sermon. A Thanksgiving dinner will be served to all the public is invited to the service. Mr. J R Drayton and Miss Lucy Pearson were united in holy wedlock Sunday night November, 7 at 61 Farm street; Rev. L A Townsley officiating. Mr Samuel Fuller and Miss Licia Adams were united in holy wedlock Monday night, Nov. 8; Rev. Townsley officiating, Rev. Townsley is the first minister of the race in Savannah, except the Congregational Church, to install the Individual communion service. This is an advance step and which will serve to crush out a deal of maladies which tend to spread diseases. The congregation was delighted, as the pastor took them on suprise with the service. The ladies are just as busy as bees in the efforts to send the pastor to Valdosta, Ga. fully equipped. The Sunday School fair was a winning card and their rally will be a pulling off tomorrow, watch them. The mock marriage and concert given by Mrs. Lula Carson assisted by Mrs. Brown was a very pleasant feature Monday evening. St Philip Dots. Everywhere on Sunday you can see persons on their way to St. Philip; to attend the eleven o'clock service. There seem to be new life in the members and visitors. The sermons are instructive, spiritually, morally and every other way. When Rev. Lindsay does not preach some well, known minister always stop in and give the congregation interesting discourses. On inatt Sunday at eleven o'clock Rev. M L Vaughers, traveling agent for the American Bible Society preached. The chirb and congregation sung hymn 231, "I know that my Redeemer live." Rev. Vaughers' text was Mark 9,1 subject "A special revelation." One more week and Rev. Lindsay will have completed his fourth year as pastor of St. Philip and will leave for Valdaost, on Nov. 30, where the Georgian Conference will convene. Every member must pay the dollar money.

The remains were interred in the Catholic Cemetery, where Father Obrecht read the last prayers. Besides her daughter, Mrs. Catharine A Smith, she left other relatives. F B B Church. On Sunday night the church was packed. The distinguished guest was the Broads Aid and Social Club and its Branch Rev Wright read for the lesson Ezekiel 1:1-15. As the Club and its Branch had not any history to read Rev Wright gave a verbal history. He first welcomed them, saying how glad he was to have the opportunity to say a word to them for the Lord. He said that theirs was about the oldest club in the city and was well known by all who have resided in the city any length of time. His text was from Rev 4:3. The subject was "A Rainbow". The sermon was excellent. It was filled with many beautiful lessons. One of the prettiest was no matter how much trouble we have nor how low the clouds may hang over our pathway if, we are christians the mist will roll away and the rainbow appear just as it always after a heavy rain. The choir Praise "The Lord, Rev Wright led the congregation" that lawful day will surely come" he made some very sad and touching remarks [while inviting those who felt the need of prayer to the mercy seat. A large crowd accepted the invitation. Rev Wright led in a fervent spirited prayer. The Club and branch contributed liberally to the church, pastor, choir and sexton.

JAPANESE MUSHROOM GROWING Attention Pzid to Preparation of the Soil—The Main Crop. The Japanese have an interesting method of growing a kind of mushroom known as the wood mushroom, zarkars shiitake. This species, which is much prized as a food in Japan, is related to the so-called honey fungus, a species very destructive to the roots of trees and woody plants. This latter species, it may be noted, is one of the causes of phosphorescence in decaying wood. The Japanese method of growing their mushroom seems to consist entirely in preparing the ground for it. A coppice of red oak, beech or chestnut of some twenty years growth is cut down just after the fall of the leaf. The wood is then left lying for 100 days. It is then cut into lengths of three or four feet and the logs are lacerated with large pruning knives. Spores settle on the wounded parts and the mycelium of the fungus spreads through the tissues of the wood. Next year a crop of mushrooms springs up. The production of mushrooms may go on for six years, but the main crop is gathered the second year. The attempt is now being made to cultivate the wood mushroom in Germany in the Japanese manner.—London Globe. It takes considerable courage for a doctor to deliberately prescribe only food for a despairing patient, instead of resorting to the usual list of medicines. There are some truly scientific physicians among the present generation who recognize and treat conditions as they are and should be treated regardless of the value to their pockets. Here's an instance: "Four years ago I was taken with severe gastritis and nothing would stay on my stomach, so that I was on the verge of starvation. "I heard of a doctor, who had a summer cottage near me—a specialist from N. Y., and as a last hope, sent for him. "After he examined me carefully he advised me to try a small quantity of Grape-Nuts at first, then as my stomach became stronger to eat more. "I kept at it and gradually got so I could eat and digest three teaspoonfuls. Then I began to have color in my face; memory became clear, where before everything seemed a blank. My limbs got stronger and I could walk. So I steadily recovered. "Now after a year on Grape-Nuts I weigh 153 lbs. My people were surprised at the way I grew fleshy and strong on this food."

Earthquake Predictions It has been the aspiration of many years so to develop the science of seismology that it would be possible to predict with some measure of real reasonable accuracy the time and locality of the occurrence of earthquakes.

Very little progress has been made, as witness the appalling suddenness of some of the most recent and terrible, of the visitations, but it must not be concluded that science has abandoned the study or is weakened in its faith that some progress will yet be made.—Philadelphia Ledger. * Perry Davis' Prinkiller has no substitute.

A OUTLINE OF A HISTORY OF THE WORLD Roosevelt Policies to Be Commended to Congress-and Corporations the. Chief Topic—Better Anti-Trust Law, Railroad Rate Court and Anti-Stock Watering Plan to Be Recommended—Conservative Regarding Mississippi—Commission Government For Alaska. Augusta, Ga. — The keynote of President Taft's message to the coming session of Congress will be this statement: "This Administration was elected on a platform that we proposed to carry out the policies of Theodore Roosevelt, and we propose to keep that promise." The President reserves to himself the right to decide what those policies are. He has said in public addresses that he, more than any other man, perhaps, had been in a position to know just what Roosevelt did or did not believe. "Mr. Roosevelt's chief policy," he has said, "was the determination to make the great corporations of the country the laureates and those corporations included the railroads and the great industrial corporations that do a large industrial business and that have shown a tendency to monopolize that business and suppress competition." Mr. Taft has indicated "clearly enough in his speeches what his message will be." It will recommend an unusually long program for Congress and one that is likely to revive a good deal of the hostility shown to the Rosewood Administration on the score of the railroad rate legislation. That the President has been looking forward to the possibility of serious opposition within the ranks of his own party is indicated by his recent speeches. Mr. Taft will recommend a court of five members in order that when the Interstate Commerce Commission shall decide a rate is unreasonable a reasonable rate may be made at once, with no appeal on the part of the railroads except to the Supreme Court. This is to make the Hephurn rate bill effective. He will point out that the five judges, having no other business before them, can not only expedite legislation, but naturally will become rate experts. There will be also a recommendation of a tribunal that will pass on how many bonds and how many shares of stock every interstate railroad may issue, to prevent the watering of stock. At one time the President said: "This is important, because when you water stock you only do it to deceive people and get them to pay more than the stock is worth." Further, Mr. Taft said, it is wrong because it builds a false foundation on which to reckon what reasonable freight rates are. To further expeditio the work of making railroads obey the law, the President will recommend a reorganization of the Bureau of Corporations, the Interstate Commerce Commission and the Department of Justice that the three may work progressively and not be stumbling over one another, as they are under the present system. But the President will make it clear that he is not attacking corporations that work legitimately. His own expression on that subject is: "We could not get along without corporations in the business of corporations. But as we give them privileges, so they must recognize the responsibility with which they exercise power, and we must have the means of compelling them to recognize that responsibility and to keep them within the law." The President will recommend an amendment to the anti-trust law that he thinks will make it effective. The present terms are so broad that in his mind it is not enforceable, as it makes no distinction between a reasonable and an unreasonable restraint of trade—a difference that is recognized by the common law. He will recommend that the law be amended to narrow and confine it to combinations and conspiracles to suppress competition and establish monopolies, and to leave out the denunciations of general restraints of trade. He will not recommend that labor unions be specifically Deaths in Chicago. Chicago.—The body of Ernst Camp, the chauffeur who drove his automobile with two passengers into the river Sunday night, has been recovered. The bodies of Miss Beatrice Shapiro and Max Cohen are still in the river. It has been learned that Camp's parents are insane, and the theory of the police is that he was also. The tragedy has aroused a public demand for an ordinance requiring mental and physical examination of all men who drive automobiles. exempted from, the operation of the law, but the effect of the amendment, he admits, will be to put labor outside the law. Under the present statute it has been decided by the Supreme Court that boycotts are a violation of the Sherman act. The President's position on the subject of honesty in business is as summarized by himself: "It takes some time for a series of courts to make a decision which shall be plain to the business world. But we are going on with this anti-trust law, and if we amend it as I suggest we shall draw the lines closer and enable men to know what is legitimate business and what is not." Postal savings banks will be urged. President Taft will recommend continuance and extension of the conservation of national resources and reclamation of arid lands. He will say that these subjects include also retention of control over the water power sites by the Government, so that it may regulate rates charged for the power furnished, and retention of control of coal, oil and phosphate lands, that the Government may prevent the use of those lands by monopolies. Conservative as to Mississippi. On the subject of waterways the message will recommend continuance and extension of harbor work, such as the San Pedro Harbor, on the California coast, but his recommendations for work on the inland waterways will be most conservative. The President saw a lot on his trip down the Mississippi River, but his conclusions did not encourage the inland waterways boomers, who went to great expense to show the river to him. Regarding the Mississippi the President will go no further in the next message than to recommend continuance of the protection of the banks at the bends, where the current is constantly cutting. Outside of that it will be the position of Mr. Taft that no improvement shall be undertaken until engineers have approved its feasibility and have estimated its cost and, in addition, it has been demonstrated that after the millions of the Government have been spent the project will be worth while—that is, that the commerce will justify the expense, and that the shippers will not desert the river for the railroad the first time the latter cuts rates. All those conditions fulfilled, the President will be in favor of the Government issuing all the bonds necessary and completing the work that it has decided, carefully, to begin. The President will not make any recommendation for monetary legislation, leaving that to the next Congress. A commission government for Alaska will be recommended. It is the result of his experience in the Philippines and, as Secretary of War, the guardian of Cuba. It is the idea of colonies, but the President is very much in earnest about it, as he believes Alaska, with its enormous extent of territory and small, uncertain population, is not ready for self-government. The President will recommend a ship subsidy in the form of payment by the Government for the carrying of supplies. Control of corporations will be the main issue in the message, and the President believes that his administration already has made a good start in the corporation tax passed at the extra session. Mr. Taft has expressed himself as in favor of a central bank to handle the finances of the country, but the details' of the plan have not been worked out, and no one is more open to argument and conviction on the subject than the President. There is no likelihood that it will be a part of the message. If the message is the central bank plan will be a part of a later message, including the general monetary revision scheme. All Future Boston Schoolhouses to Have Sun and Fresh-Air Rooms. Boston.—All new school buildings erected in this city in the future are to contain sun and fresh-air rooms, according to a communication to be sent by the School Commission to the Schoolhouse Commission. A report containing such a recommendation was adopted at a special meeting. A committee of the board also has under consideration a plan for utilizing the roofs of the present buildings, and it is probable that a recommendation will be made on this. Among the Masons.

Grand Lodge of Tennessee took action in its annual communication on January 26th in a case that occurred in its second day's session, of the representatives appeared at body in an intoxicated condi- tion. The Grand Junior Warden predeed charges at once and the cul- was expelled from Masonry. There is no surer road to success for Masonic lodges than promptness in discharging the various actions of the lodge. Promptness opening the lodge, promptness in executing dues, promptness in conferring degrees and promptness in relieving distress are virtues which make a Masonic lodge a powerful force for good—Illinois Freemason. A distinguished writer has said: "As a man thinkketh in his heart, so he is, and so he is to the world. For those whose thoughts are earthly and sensual this is a beast's world; for those whose thoughts are high, noble and heroic, it is a hero's world. The strength of wishes transforms the very stuff of our existence and molds it to the form of our heart's innest desire and hope." LOVE OF MASONRY. Masonry, challenges the admiration of the civilized world, and the love and loyalty of every Mason. We love Masonry. We love it for its magnificent past, its glorious present and most glorious future. We love it for its sublime teachings, its high and noble purposes, its uplifting, elevating influences, for its universally uniting men of every country, sect and opinion, and for its adaptability to every man who can conform to its precepts.—Sylvanus, J. Quinn, G. M., Virginia. REMEMBER THE FRATERNAL TIES. It may not be so, but it looks that way to me, that Masons oftimes are derelict in their obligations to brother Masons. I mean by this that as members of the craft we do not stick as close together as we should. We see" to lose sight of this particular injunction: "More especially a brother Mason." That is the strongest fraternal tion known to the craft, and we ought to see that its import and impress are in no way weakened by any lack of fulfilling our duty one toward another. Let us practice the teachings and maintain the bonds of brotherly attachment in our every day walks of life.—Masonic Home Journal. THE NOBLER LIVES. No lives on earth can be nobler than those spent for the uplifting and betterment of mankind. For them there is no death. Could that radiant blow of joy and happiness, which they have poured into the dark and desolate homes of the distressed, be reflected upon 'lehir deathbed, we could see them pass from this life to the realms above in a halo of heavenly glory. The voices that throughout such a noble life have been whispering words of cheer and encouragement to the sorrowful may be silent; the hands that, palmetly and mercifully have administered to the weak and suffering may be folded in the embrace of death, but life itself and the memory of their deeds will live forever.—A. O. Eberhart, Minnesota. THINGS. The Tribune, in its editorial columns, touched upon some very vital subjects in its last issue. The number must have been of interest to all. who read it and I am sure there were some things which were pelasing to the editor. The continuous hammering upon the necessity of the black man's "having and holding" by The Tribune was partially rewarded by the approach of several young men with the promise to begin to save, being influenced by The Tribune. A paper is filling its mission most gloriously when it becomes sufficiently potent, to, mould sentiment, and Editor Johnson should feel proud of this expressed knowledge of the fact that this is the status of The Tribune. When the Negro sailors landed at our port, Editor Johnson spoke of the fact that owing to sentiment these sailors could not share the fraternal and patriotic hospitality that would be given the whites of the hootilla. He suggested that the Negroes of the city should take the matter up and they did. Led by that dauntless and intrepid and, courageous Rev. W. L. Jones, the occasion was most perfectly planned and pulled on to the delight of the sailors and to the wis- dom and foresight of The Tribune, the intrinsic worth to the community, of Bev. Jones and to the patriotism of all who in many measures alied in its success, not more beautiful an expression of racial love could have been given than this one small act. No greater and deeper expression of racial patriotism could have been shown. Hence, the potency of a newspaper in the moulding of sentiment. Some time ago the necessity of another school was spoken of in the columns of The Tribune. The suggestion was advanced that the fraternal organizations of the city might, by united effort, build a school house. This suggestion is as eminently appropriate now as then and should take shape in the minds of those of us who hope to see all of our children educated. The board of education meets and adjourns without a word with reference to. Increased school facilities for Negro children. The streets are full of children of school age who can find no place in the now crowded, schools. The need for another school is pressing and to every Negro of the city the sight of so many children roving the streets daily should be distressing. Then what is our duty? Should we stand still and depend upon our neighbors for al when we ourselves can at a little cost demand and obtain it? If they will not go the whole way, by a little energy and sacrifice we can force them to go half way and at the same time build a monument to ourselves that will reflect credit to the builders and hasten the answers to our prayers to the board of education. "He also serves who only stangs and waits," provided, as the late Jno. W. Armstrong used to put it, you work while you wait. Then let us wait on the will of the board of education; but let us work while we wait, and we will find that school facilities, sufficient to house every child of school age, will be the sooner had. You may argue that it is the duty of the board of education to furnish the school houses necessary. Well, suppose it is. Then while we are supposing, let us suppose in the following vein: "Suppose the world don't please you, Nor the way some people do. Do you think the whole creation Will alter dust for you?" "And wouldn't it be the wiser, Than wailling like a dunce, To go-to work in earnest And do the thing at once." We should, as a race, go to work and build a school house for ourselves. We can't do it? We can, George Williams didn't know that he could build a great big many-room brick building until he scratched his cranium and thought about it. Joe Garey didn't know that he could build and run a first class bakery until he thought the matter seriously over. The Wage Earners' Bank is the product of thought and application. Scott Brothers' Dry. Good Store is the result of thought. The Masonic Temple is the product of the thought of the Masonic Building Committee. The idea which evolved into the Duffie Street-School is the result of the thought of John Simmons. And if we think seriously, of the building of a school building and put our thoughts to actions, we will have one and the board of education will give the teachers. We can elave no more endearing memento to coming generations than by creating a fountain of knowledge from which those who thirst may drink. We can impress our presence and worth upon the community in no better way. ROY REGINALD. FEMININE NEWS NOTES. Lillian Russell is near forty-eight and Annie Russell close to forty-five. Mme.
