The Savannah Tribune. VOL. XXV. JAPANESE ARE ANGRY Anti-Americanism Is Rampant Throughout Japan. PAPERS NOT CONSERVATIVE Recent Statement of Russian-Japanese Alliance Against America Arouses Niponese to Great Ire. Tokio, Japan—"The struggle of interests has become serious. Japan is obliged to develop on the mainland. America must remember that her failure is due to her disregard of others' rights." This statement made editorially in The Nippon, a powerful newspaper, summarizes in a comparatively conservative manner the attitude of the Japanese press and public toward the United States and its efforts to secure the neutralization of the Manchurian railroads held by Japan and Russia. The failure of the plan has brought rejoicing to the nation which has been stirred by long accounts printed in the last few days, of warnings of war purported to have been made by well known Americans. The last, the statement attributed to Jacob H. Schiff, has been printed in full throughout Japan, creating a sensation. A new wave of anti-Americanism is breaking over Japan as the result of this statement. This inimical feeling is encouraged in every way possible by the press. The Russian ambassador has been frequently in consultation with Marquis Komura, and it was reported that important diplomatic developments were imminent. The attack on Russia contained in Mr. Schiff's remarks has strangely enough but added fuel to the fire. His declaration that Japan had "joined hands with that enemy of all mankind, Russia," and the prediction that America would be drawn into the international complications form the leading topic of all classes. Students of international affairs are surprised by the attitude of the Japanese press, in view of the fact that Ambassador Uchida has the duty of making a new treaty wita the United States before him at Washington. It is considered strange that any chance would be taken of arousing American feeling and blocking his efforts. The general impression here is that Japan believes the new naval plans of Secretary Meyer are aimed particularly at herself and is wroth over that condition of affairs. CARLOAD OF BABIES. New Orleans People Were Glad to Get Foundlings. New Orleans, La—This is the day they gave babies away in New Orleans. And the human gifts did not go begging. A carload of the little tots arrived here from the New York Foundling and Orphan Asylum with an eager crowd of claimants awaiting their arrival. In addition to those who had previously made successful claim to a baby, many pressed about the car in the hope that there might be some "left over." Their disappointment was keen when they found that the advance demand was fully up to the supply. PREACHERS GO CRAZY. Three Pastors Become Insane After Serving in Ohio Church. Ashtabula, Ohio—A fatality that has pursued the various pastors of the Finnish Congregational Church here has smitten Rev. Frank Meitenan. Mr. Maitenan was taken to a probate court on an insanity warrant, and his friends have asked that he be committed to an asylum. His assistant in a series of revival services which he held in January has also since become insane. His predecessor in the pastorate was committed to an asylum, but later was released and returned to Finland, where he became chief of police of his native town. TELLER AND $10,000 GONE. J. M. Doyle of the Hibernia Bank of Savannah Disappears. Savannah, Ga.—James M. Doyle, for several years follier of the Hibernia Bank, here, is missing, as is also $10,000 of the bank's cash. Connected by the police with the disappearance of Doyle is that of a woman who left several days before he did and with whom the police assert he was infatuated. They declare she left without his knowledge, and that he obtained her address from a friend of the-woman only after begging for it with tears in his eyes; and the following day he disapeared also. Peary Welcomes Company. New York City. — "The more the merrier," said Commander Robert E. Peary, when told of the decision of the German Geographical Society to send an expenditure in search of the south pole. "I do not know much about the German plans," he added, "but I think all additional competition should be welcomed." Left $200,000 to: Odd Fellows. Left $200,000 to Odd Fellows Little Rock, Ark.-The will of A. W. Shirey, a merchant in Arkansas, was assassinated, was opened. A fortune estimated at $200,000 was left to the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows to establish a sanitarium at Hof Springs. Shirey was shot through the window of his store by unknown parties. THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA.. SATURDAY, MARCH 12, 1910. REPORTS ON WEATHER. Washington, D. C.—In response to the request of the fruit growers of several southern states, Senator Clay has finally won the consent of the senate committee on agriculture to agree to an emergency appropriation of $40,000 to permit the weather bureau to resume its full weather report service. The weather bureau stated that this amount would enable them to maintain the service for the remainder of the present fiscal year, ending July 1. The severe storms of the past winter led the bureau to make heavy demands upon its available funds for telegraph tolls, and in consequence the service was recently sharply cut down. FARMERS RAISING HOGS. Diversification is Meeting With Success Along Mississippi River. New Orleans, La.-That the appeal for diversification in south farming is meeting with success is declared by local exchanges and business organizations to be shown in the receipts of live hogs at southern markets. Somewhat of a novel sight has been presented in this connection at New Orleans during the last week, when old-time river steamers, usually associated with the transportation of cotton exclusively, came down the river from Louisiana and Mississippi points loaded with fat, squealing porkers. Steamboat loads of hogs were unknown before in New Orleans. Simultaneous with this incident the news was received that banks at Baton Rouge and other interior points are offering seed corn free to farmers who will substitute corn for cotton on any part or all of their land. Prizes have also been offered in several parishes of Louisiana to the farmer who raises the finest hog during the year. DRAIN THE SWAMP. Vast Area of Rich Lands Can Be Reclaimed. New Orleans, La—Reclamation of southern swamp lands was advocated by B. F. Yoakum, chairman of the directors of the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad, in the principal address delivered before the New Orleans board of trade. Mr. Yoakum was one of several speakers who called attention to the vast area of rich southern lands which may be drained at comparatively little cost. He declared that the reason the federal government was showing apparently more interest in putting, water on lands in the south than on taking it off was because the west was alive and working for improvement, while the south gave the impression that it was satisfied to leave well enough alone. PROFESSIONAL MOURNER. Woman Made It Her Business to Attend Funerals. Denver, Col.-It will be some time before Clara Howell will be able to resume her alleged vocation of professional mourner, according to the Denver police. She was arrested, charged with begging. The police said the woman made a practice of slipping quietly into funeral services, where she would take a seat and begin to weep. Naturally some of the relatives of the deceased would inquire into her identity. Then the woman would invariably say she was acquainted with the departed and incidentally would call attention to her own poverty. She was generally successful, the police assert, in getting a loan. FERTILIZER RATES UNJUST. Railroads Charge Too Much for Hauling From Memphis. Washington, D. C.—In a series of cases brought before the interstate commerce commission by the Virgin's Carolina Chemical Company against the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railway, the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern and the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad, it was held by the commission that the rates of the defendant lines on fertilizer from Memphis, Tenn., to various points in other states were unreasonable. Rates that the commission considered reasonable were ordered to be established NO MORE COWBOYS. On the Ranches in the West. Chicago, Ill—Cowboys and their ponies will soon be things of the past, so far as the larger cattle ranges in Texas we concerned, according to announcement made here by the representative of a Texas ranch owners' organization. He said automobiles were being constructed, now that their use over the 'ranges was practicable, and two hundred machines have been ordered to be shipped from Chicago and New York to various Texas points. YOUR SHARE OF MONEY. $34.87 Sum Is the Per Capita In Circulation in the United States. Washington, D. C.—Have you $34.87 in your pocket or in the bank? If you have not, then you are shy on the per capita circulation of money in the United States, as shown in the books of the treasury department. The department, in reaching this calculation, estimates the population of the United States at 89,883,000, and announces the amount of money in circulation on March 1, as $3,134,093,250, which if equally divided would give every man, woman and child—in the- country $34.87. There is in circulation today $49,315.24 more than a year ago. CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES Retail Dealers Blame Farmers for Higher Prices of Meat. PEOPLE LEAVING-THE FARMS 25,000,000 Less Hogs and 10,000,000 Less Cattle in the Country Than There Were Ten Years Ago, According to Packers. Washington, D. C. — Retail meat dealers placed upon the farmers and the packers responsibility for the higher prices of meat in testimony given before the select senate committee, which began its inquiry into the increased cost of living. Five retail men from New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington were heard, and Walter Brown, a Washington dealer, who kills his own meat, was the only one who did not admit that the price of meat had gone up at least 10 per cent during the past five years. Mr. Brown insisted that prices were practically the same now as then. All agreed, however, that competition among the retailers kept the price to the consumer as low as possible consistent with the price charged by the wholesaler. Each witness vigorously denied the charge that the retailers were responsible for prevailing prices, and none would admit that any agreement existed among them as to prices. While no one charged that the packers were in a combination, all of the witnesses who had dealings with them declared that there seemed to be no competition among them for the trade of retailers, and that their prices ranged about the same. When complaint was made to the packers about advancing prices, they said the latter explained that stock was scarce. J. C. Walker, a member of a market company which caters to the fashionable trade in, this city, told the committee that he bought his meats in New York because the best quality was shipped there from all over the country. He said beef had advanced 15 per cent and poultry and pork 50 to 100 per cent in ten years. He quoted figures to show how prices of meats had increased all along the line. He said he had made inquiries of Armour & Company, the packers, to learn way meat had gone up and was told that this was because there were 25,000,000 less hogs and 10,000,000 less cattle in "the country than there were ten years ago. Senator Gallinger asked the witness to state his personal views as to the cause of the increased price of farm products. Mr. Walker declared he believed the national prosperity had caused the people to rush to the cities from the farms and that there was an under-production, which could not supply the demands. Elgin, III—D. S. Pearsall, a member of the Elgin board of trade and a representative dealer, denied that the plan to investigate high prices of living had anything to do with the action of 'the Elgin board of trade in reducing the price of butter. "Butter prices," said Mr. Pearsall, "had become so high that the average citizen was unable to buy butter and this class of buyers' turned to the purchase of oleomargarine. High prices created a surplus in the butter supply which had to be sold. The only way to sell it was to lower the price. When the board reduced the cost from 36 cents to 30 cents a pound, the commodity again came within reach of the ordinary buyer." WOMEN'S SUMMER HATS. Stylish Hats To Be Wider and Higher, Says Milliners. Chicago, III—The hats to be worn by women this summer are going to be wider and higher than ever before—wider in 'hches and higher in price. This edict was given out by Mme. M, S. Harris, president of the National 'Association of Retail milliners, which met here in annual convention. Mne Harris said she could not tell what minimum could be expected in this year's headgear. "In inches I think the low average will be about twenty"; she said, "but in dollars I am unable to hold out much encouragement. You see, the foreign makers have secured a corner in certain materials, and they seem determined to hold up the prices. Untrimmed crowns, I am afraid, will cost not less than $25." Tobacco Trust Earns $30,448,384. New York City—The American Tobacco Company, which is now fighting the federal suit for its dissolution before the supreme court, made public its annual report for 1909, which showed that it earned 50 1-2 per cent on its $40,000,000 common stock. Net earnings were $30,448,384. Highest Price for Tobacco Highest Price for tobacco Hopkinsville, Ky. — The highest price for dark tobacco ever paid on the loose floor in Kentucky was reached, when $15.50 a hundred was given for a crop raised in East Christian county. It was purchased for the Bremen trade. Four Tons of Eggs Seized. Boston, Mass.—Four stems of eggs intended for use in bakers' cakes and ples were taken from a cold storage house on complaint of Dr. George D. Adams, government food inspector. Dr. Adams said they had become unfit for use and that after they have been treated with carbolic acid the government will sell them to tanning establishments. POSTAL BANKS BILL. PASSES. Administration Measure Passed By Republica Vote In the Senate. Washington, D. C.-Dividing practically upon party lines, the senate passed the administration postal savings bank bill. Of the 72 votes cast, 50 were in favor of the bill and 22 were against it. All the negative votes were cast by democrats. Senator Chamberlain of Oregon was the only democrat who voted for the bill. As it goes to the house the bill authorizes the various money-order post-offices to accept sums of $1 or more from depositors, and to deposit these sums in the local banks, where the money is to remain unless withdrawn by the president in case of war or other emergency. In case of this withdrawal, the funds are to be invested in government securities, but with the proviso that such securities shall not draw less than 2 1-4 per cent interest. The control of the funds is invested in a board of trustees composed of the postmaster general, the secretary of the treasury and the attorney general. The aggregate balance allowed to any depositor is $500, and no person is permitted to deposit more than $100 in any one month. The government is required to pay 2 per cent interest, and must exact not less than 2 1-4 per cent from the banks, the extra quarter of 1 per cent being required for the payment of expenses and losses. CURE FOR POOR MEMORY. Judge Jails Witness for Saying "I Don't Remember." New York City—That a judge may summarily punish a witness who answers "I don't remember" to most of the questions that are asked him, and commit him to jail for contempt of court, instead of holding him for a jury trial on a charge of perjury, was the decision of the United States circuit court of appeals in an opinion written by Judge Cox. The decision was rendered in the case of Schulmans & Goldstein, bankrupts. Schulmans was called upon to testify before a referee to explain apparent shrinkage in his assets. Schulman's refusal to make an explanation aroused the Merchants' Protective Association, whose counsel made a certificate that he was consulting a perjury. Judge Holt ordered his arrest and committed him to Ludlow street jail for six months for contempt of court. WOULD KILL THE INSANE. Missouri Doctor Says Idiots Should Be Put Out of Way. Montgomery, Mo. — Mr. David O. Hudson, member of the State Medical Association, former county physician, and a member of the present school board, advocates giving a dose of prussic acid to all who come into the world as idiots or who become hopelessly insane and are confined in the insane asylums and county infirmaries throughout the country. Dr. Hudson says it is a doctrine of mercy. The drug would put them to sleep forever, out of their misery, and it would take out but from three, to ten minutes to perform the operation. As county physician he suggested to the county court his willingness to apply the "mercury tablets" to a number of incurables at the county farm, but the court said their lives must be allowed to exist, miserable and incurable as they were. ONE EGG CAUSES SUIT. Judge Considers Ownership of One Egg Weighty Matter. New York City—What members of the bench and har have been expecting as the natural consequence of the increased cost of living has come to pass in Brooklyn. A complicated legal case involving the ownership of one egg is up for adjustment in the Flatbush court. The papers in the case cite the children of Mrs. Mary Penninger and Mrs. Anna Ganey, playing together in a vacant lot, found a newly-laid egg. Possession of the valuable find is claimed by both. "I fully realized what the ownership of an egg means in these times," said the magistrate when the matter was submitted to him, "and therefore I will not be hasty in deciding this question. I postpone the case for one week while I am considering it." Newsy Paragraphs. Boston has nine hundred and seventy licensed liquor places for its six hundred thousand population, or one less than last year, according to the annual report of the Boston license board. The gross revenue in the city there from the past year has been $1,425,800. Mayor Shank of Indianapolis announced that he would try to appoint women as policemen. His plan is to have women on beats in the shopping districts to clear the streets of objectionable characters. The Boston School committee is now planning to serve two-cent lunches each day to enemic and delicate children in the public schools, this being an outgrowth of the openair school tried in Charlestown last spring. Seven $100 bills were found plinned to a shirt in the wash at a Kennebunk (Maine) laundry. The money was returned to the owner, Wesley A. Shaw of Haverhill, N. H. More than four million persons attend moving picture shows every day in the United States, according to Professor Charles Sprague, Smith of Columbia university. This total, he adds, is four times as great as the number who go to all other theaters combined. PEARY REFUSES PROOFS STATEMENT TO CONGRESS Naval Committee Declare They Will Not Make Lieutenant Peary a Rear Admiral Unless He Submits His Proofs. Washington, D. C. — Commander Peary has declined to submit to congress proofs of his discovery of the North Pole. He sent in care of Representative Alexander of New York a statement written in the third person and addressed to the subcommittee of the house committee on naval affairs, in which he set forth his reasons for refusing to send his data to the committee. The statement follows: "Commander Peary and his friends say that contracts signed months ago with his publishers render it impossible to make his records and scientific data public now. It would not only subject Peary to heavy damage—a loss which he cannot meet, having just extricated himself from debt incurred in connection with his various expeditions — but it would be breaking faith with his publishers, which he is unwilling to do under any circumstances." Representative Macon told the committee that since he publicly declared a few days ago that he would insist upon seeing Mr. Peary's proofs and was opposed to any "legislation in the dark" on the subject, he had received letters containing three thick sand signatures, endorsing his stand. The committee has received a mass of interesting communications on the subject. One is from H. L. Hopkins, secretary and treasurer of the American Association of Masters, Mates and Pilots, questioning reports of Mr. Peary's sounding taken in the vicinity of the North Pole. "How did Peary, with one man, sound in 1,500 fathoms of water?" wrote Mr. Hopkins to the committee. FIGHTING CORPORATION TAX. Many Briefs Filed in Supreme Court Opposing Tax. Washington, D. C.—The attack on the constitutionality of the corporation tax loomed into prominence when brief after brief in opposition to the law was filed in the supreme court of the United States. Final argument of the cases involving the question is set for next week. Prominent among these was the brief of former Senator Joseph B. Foraker of Ohio, solicitor for Louis W. Jared, a stockholder in the American Multigraph Company of Cleveland, O. J. who seeks to have the company enjoined from paying the tax on the ground that it is unconstitutional. Senator Foraker says "the indefiniteness of the language employed" in the corporation tax provision of the Payne-Aldrich tariff law makes it difficult to ascertain just what the tax is. MORE MONEY FOR R. F. D. Over $1,000,000 Added to the Appropriation by House. Washington, D. C.—Over $1,000,000 was added by the house to the appropriation recommended by the committee on postoffice and postroades for the rural face delivery service for the year ending June 30, 1911. The appropriation, it was stated, would be sufficient to permit the establishment of 3,000 new rural free delivery routes, as it would make available for such extensions about $1,500,000. During the current fiscal year $660,000 was available for extension of this service. Democrats from southern states took a prominent part in the advocacy of the increased allowance for rural free delivery. P. C. Knox. Jr.. Married. Providence, R. I.—Wearing a broad wedding band of gold and with a large diamond engagement ring sparkling on a finger of her left hand, Miss May Boler, 21 years old, until recently employed in a department store of this city, coyly claimed Philander C. Knox, Jr. the 20-year-old son of the secretary of state, as her husband. The young people have gone to Washington receive the blessings of Mrs. Knox and the secretary of state. Miser's Money Found. Chattanooga, Tenn—While tearing down a partition in a house formerly occupied by R. T. McMillin, a miser, who died two years ago, J. W. Owens, a carpenter, found suspended between the walls a half pint flask in which the miser had placed $1,160. McMillin was an eccentric man, who for years carried his fortune about with him in a basket. Abolish Third Degree. Frankfort, Ky.—A bill which passed the lower house of the assembly will, if approved by the senate, abolish the "third degree." It prohibits the introduction as evidence of any confession or information gained by police officers through the process of "sweating" men arrested for crime. $1,800 Per Death. Chicago, il—With fifty claims of widows and other relatives of Cherry mine disaster victims settled by payments ranging from $800 to $1,200 per death, the St.-Paul Mining Company has entered into negotiations with counsel in something like 100 more cases to settle with the victims' widows at the rate of $1,800 in each case. LATE NEWS NOTE For possibly the second time it was presented to Jefferson during his incumbency as preside the confederacy, shortly after struck off in the New Orleans, the latter part of the year 1661 50-cent 'piece' of the Conf. states of America was exhibited the owner, Mr. Adams of Bent at an informal dinner of the matic club recently. Mr. Adam recently purchased the coln adelphia, values it at about With eighteen inches of hair and beard almost black, leathern features, Carl Chesnair, fifty years old, has been in a cave, near Pittsburgh. Pl lodged in the police station. He clares that he escaped from a Berlin exile colony twenty-two years ago and boasts that in five years has not washed his face. The police refused to touch him, and only a threats to shoot did they drive him a cell. Ten days of hard labor with soap and water was the penalty given him for his vagrancy. Now that a New York state senator, Brockett, has proposed to have a day set aside especially for the women of the state to vote on the question whether they really want to vote or to have the privilege and responsibility of the ballot, the leading advocates of equal suffrage are far from pleased, and are preparing to demand radical changes, at least in the Brackett plan. First, the woman suffrage leaders say that no provision is made for registration of the women of the state, and; second, they want the polls kept open for the full period and the day made a legal holiday else the mass of working women would have no chance to vote on the question. The presumption is that these changes in the bill would defeat it. Washington Formal recognition of Robert D. Peary as the discoverer of the porch pole has been given by the leading scientific societies of ten governments, according to adylices which have reached the National Geographic society. These embrace the National Geographic Societies at Washington, the Royal Geographic society at London and the Geographic society at Paris, Rome, Berlin, Antwerp, Brussels, Vienna, Dresden and Geneva. A protest against the bill to grant a federal charter to the Rockefeller foundation has been received in Washington from George W. DaCunha, an architect of Upper Montclair, N. J. He claims the bill is class legislation in line with the granting of charters to crowned heads with extraordinary powers." He says it will remove the possibility of an inheritance tax from the succession of this fortune, and that it sets a precedent for granting similar charters to all wealthy families in the country, adding: "They (the families) in turn could combine and form one of the greatest aggregations of money in the world and one that could dominate all opposition." Cohgressman Sisson of Mississippi introduced a joint resolution directing the attorney general to institute proceedings in the United States court to test the validity of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution. The resolution also calls upon the attorney general to submit to the court all the available information bearing on these amendments. Mr. Sisson, in common with others, claims that the amendments were never legally adopted, and that the supreme court of the United States, in a fair trial, could be compelled to set them aslide. Charges that they exact undust and discriminatory rates on coal were made to the interstate commerce commission by the Alabama Coal Operators' association against the Southern railway and the Illinois Central railroad. The complaint alleges that by reason of these rates, the coal operators in the Alabama field lost large volume of business in Georgia, South Carolina and Florida, because by reason of the small differential allowed, they are unable to compete with the operators in the Coal Creek field of Tennessee. Conditioned upon municipal cooperation the construction of adequate wharves and other equipage the war department recommended to congress the improvement of Hillsboro bay Florida, at an initial cost of $1,135,000 and of $20,000 annually for five years and $10,000 annually thereafter. The project is in connection with Tampa Bay. A new bill providing for the creation of American embassies abroad was reported by Representative. Lowden from the foreign affairs committee. The bill, which takes the place of the one defeated on the floor of the house last week, provides a limit of $150,000 for any building, including grounds and furnishings. The quantity of 1909 wheat crop in farmers' hands March 1 was about 23.5 per cent, equivalent to 173,440,000 bushels, compared with 21.6 per cent (143,692,000 bushels) of the 1909 crop on hand March 1, 1909, and 23.5 per cent (152,571,000 bushels), the average for the past ten years, according to the crop reporting board of the department of agriculture. In answer to inquiries sent, out some days ago by the American National Red Cross, to their representatives in the flood districts of New York and Ohio, letters have been received stating in each instance that it will be necessary for the Red Cross to forward money, as the emergencies we being, met by the communities which the floods occurred. se2e - 38 BES a tesces . 2 _e j: Largest Sick and Death I [ibm WILLiAMs, President. - .7P.

NEW ROAD 10 FLORIDA ' Albany, Ga—There are very bright prospects for Albany’s getting two new railroads before the year is gone. There appears not to be the slightest doubt that the Georgia Southwestern and Gulf will be built from this city to St. Andrews Bay, Fla. The other road which now seems to have such good proscpects is the Albany, Ashburn and Atlantic. Muca of the route which the proposed line would caver has already been grad- ed, much of it for use for by lumber roads, and the construction work can, therefore, be done at comparatively small expense. The part of the road already built, and now nearly to Ashburn from tae . east, is known as the Fitzgerald, Ocil- la_and Broxton. Fitzgerald, Ga—Temporary organi- zation of the Jacksonville and Atlan- ta Short Line Railway Company was perfected here. Cemmittees from various points be- tween Jacksonville, Fla,, and Fort Val- ley, Ga., met here for the purpose of discussing the matter of constructing a high-speed trunk line steam rail- way through one of the best unde- veloped territories in Soutlr Georgia -find@ Florida and the yellow pine belt. The owners of the short lines of rail- road along the route proposed were present, manifesting their interest in the organization of the company which is supposed to absorb the sev- eral interests in building the sbort- est possible line between Atlanta and Jacksonville, about 40 miles shorter than either‘ of the present routes. It is assured that the rights of way and 25 per cent of the capital stock will be obtained and raised, which practically guarantees that the line will be built, Fitzgerald, Ga—The Fitzgerald and Ocilla Electric Railway broke dirt, and will rush the road to completion with a large force of men. A boat Joad of rails arrived in Savannah for the read and anotaer load is on the way. A large number of ties were bought in the city for immediate de- livery. It looks now as- though the long delayed road would be bulit in a, short time. Gainesville, Ga—Renewed Interest in Gainesville ‘is manifested ih the proposed Savannah, Augusta and Northern Railway by ‘a recent visit of parties to this section who are interested in the project. It now looks like the people be- hind the proposed road mean to get usy all along the line, and push tae extension ‘from Garfield ‘on to Gaines- ville and through to Chattanooga> Eighty miles of this road have been built already, over which trains are now operated. Work was suspended on the road by reason of the panic of 1907, but it now looks as if it is to be resumed and the road built. | Dalton, Ga. — Dalton citizens are talking of organizing to make a very strong pull to get the Rome and Northern Railroad, which is survey- ed, to come througa the county on the western side from Gore to Tun- nel Hill. The suryey is several miles off the line from Dalton and the citi- zens here think it would be folly to pass as important a shipping point as Dalton, where the two trunk lines, the Southern and Western and Atlan- tic meet, and it fs likely that the matter will be taken up with the of- ficfals before the line is extended. Seereereceeeyeeteen 8 100,000 NOT REGISTERED. Registration WIll Probably Be the Lightest in Years. Atlanta, Ga—Registration in 199§ and 1909 in $0 Georgia counties — 177,885. * 2 Registration in same counties - to dale for 1910—110,875. Which means that there are in these 90 counties approximately 67,- 000 voters who participated in the last state primary, who will be dis franchised this year unless they reg: ister before the 5th of April Assuming that the ratio of regis- tration in the other 56 counties ot the state is tae same as in the 9 counties heard from, the total short- age in this year’s regitration, as com. pared with the two preceding years, is 108,925. x There were in the neighborhood of 260,000 voters registered for the gu- bernatorial election in 1908, while the indications are now that the figures so far for the 1910 elections come to only about 150,000. . In view of the figures received from tae counties so far heard from; it is exceedingly doubtful if the total reg- istration when the books close on April 5 will be much over the 200,- 000 mark—unless between now anc that date unprecedented activity in registering takes place, Reports from some of the county tax receivers indicate that strenuous effarts are now being put forth to ac- quaint the voters with the absolute necessity of registering at once, but from the majority of the counties the reports indicate no such activity. In a few of the counties tne tax collec- tors have appointed men in each mi- litia district, who are making a house to house canvass to get the voters to register, and in these counties the vote will probably be as large, it not larger, than ever before. Peach{Growers Alarmed. Americus, Ga. —cAmericus peach growers are alarmed at the prospect for a fruit crop since the recent warm weather set in, starting the trees to loom prematurely. Tens of thousands of tres in the Americus territory are in full bloom, and within a week every orchard will resemble a blooming garden.

Athens, Ga—Wita the purpose of furthering the ends of co-operative agricultural education for the farm- ers of Georgia, the State College of Agriculture has appointed farm dem- onstrators or representatives of thy college, in forty counties of the state, distributed ike the senatorial dis- tricts.

GEORGIA NEWS NOTES. Requisitons for convicts have been received at the office of the prison commission from all but twenty-nine counties of the state. Among those twenty-nine counties there is none which worked convicts during the past, and first, year of the new sys- tem, All of the counties that hac convicts on their roads last year have asked again for théir share of the state’s felons, and many that did not have them during 1909 have re- quested their apportionment this year, The missing counties have ts April 1 to file their requisitions in proper form with the prison commis: sion. Followinwg are the counties that have not asked for their share, with the number to which each is en- ‘titled on the basis of its population: Berrien, 11; Catoosa, 5; Chattahoo- chee, 5; Chattooga, 12; Dade, 4; Dawson, 5; Fannin, 10; Gilmer, ». Glasscock, 4; Gordon, 13; Grady, 15; Habersham, 9; Jeff Davis, 6; Liberty, 12; Lumpkin, 7; Marion, 9; Mcln- tosh, 6; Murray, 8; Pierce, 7; Polk, 16; Rabun, 6; Talbot, 11; Taylor, 9; Towns, 44; ‘Union, 8; Walker, 14; Wayne, 8; White, 5; and Whitfielc 18. Total, 251 convicts. If any of these aré not asked for, they will re- main to increase the number appor- ‘tioned to other counties. At present the state has 1,975 convicts on hand If every county calls for ity share, a full number of 2,091 will be needed for distribution, since fractional di- visions cannot be made.

Inventors are divided into two classes—those that invent skirt gauges and those that invent other things, and the latter are only slightly in the majority. One of the former, a California man, designed the skirt gauge shown in the illustration. This consists in a base plate, with guide ways and an upright backing plate. A guage plate, corresponding 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 with the backing plate, is movably mounted on the base and is held in position by a spring. The gauge plate has a series of slots running up to it to permit of the garment being marked. The skirt is placed between the two upright plates and the device is moved around its whole circumference. The amount to be taken off the garment is measured on the gauge plate, and by means of a piece of chalk this length can be marked off as the device circles the cloth. As will be readily noted, the line thus drawn is necessarily accurate and there is no danger of taking off more cloth in one part than in another.—Boston Post. A Non-Subscriber.

An insurance man in a small town was giving a dinner to a friend particularly high up in insurance circles. Alas he recalled at the last moment his friend smoked. It was too late. Every cigar stand was closed. What could he do? An idea occurred to him and he went out into the hall. There hung his friend's overcoat. It might contain—he was now searching the pockets. In a moment he brought forth a cigar. Nonchalantly he returned to the library. "Ah," he said, pausing on the threshold, "here is an unusually fine cigar. Will you not try it? I don't smoke, you know." Car Seats on Lever. Aside from the question of comfort, the thing that limits the distance between car seats is the space needed for the turning of the backs of these seats. A Philadelphia man has eliminated this feature by inventing a mechanism which turns alternate seats automatically, and not only saves space, but saves the conductor time: This device consists of a lever mechanism running under the seats and connecting with the backs. There are two levers, each operating alternate seats, so that when one series are turned the others remain stationary, and there is no interference be- ```markdown ``` tween them. Who has not seen a conductor passing through a train on trolley at the end of a run and turning the seats one by one? With this device the whole two rows of seat backs can be reversed with two movements, either by hand or by means of the compressed air which operates the brakes, as it is easy to harness the levers to this power.—Washington Star. At last reports there were 61,158 postoffices in this country. THE PULPIT. A BRILLIANT SUNDAY SERMON THE REV. EDWARD NILES. Brooklyn, N. Y.—Sunday morning the Rev. Edward Niles, pastor of the South Bushwick Reformed Church, preached on "Systematic Giving." The text was from Mark 12:41: "Jesus sat down over against the treasury and beheld how the multitude cast money into the treasury." Mr. Niles sald: The stage setting of this scene is a court of the temple area. Around three sides of its 200 feet square surface ran a raised balcony for the women. Against the wall on the fourth side stood thirteen trumpet-like chests, narrow at the mouth, wide at the bottom. A placard told the purpose for the money deposited in each. One and two received the tribute money of every Israelite which paid the running expenses of the temple, including salaries. In three and four were deposited the equivalent in coin for the sin offering of animals. The next three provided for the sacrificial wood, incense and furnishing. The labels of the other six showed that they received thank offerings of various kinds. Nearby was a miniature "chamber of the silent" for gifts to educate the children of the poor. Thus seven of these fourteen treasury boxes were for dues obligatory upon the members of God's visible kingdom. The seven for offerings of gratitude, supported disabled priests and their widows, taught those who could not afford tuition fees, supplied the needy, went for proselyting or mission work. The time was Tuesday of Holy Week. The characters were a multitude. Every one of them patronized the tithe boxes, many those for charity. The two important characters were: First—A widow. She had come to pay her dues. All she had were two what were vulgarly called "lepta" or "peelings," the smallest possible of coppers. To drop one into the tithe box meant one-half instead of the prescribed tent, but to give less was impossible. To support her church was a matter of course, however, and without hesitation she put in. Only a lepton left for her living! Then she looked at the boxes for benefice. She thought not of her wants, but of her blessings. With joy that at least a lepton was hers to give, she made her offering for the needy. The chief character was Jesus. He had watched the rivers of gold and silver flowing into the treasury, and it must have been a bright spot in that sad week to note how many gave the free-will offerings. The disciples, glad at the amounts given, knowing the need of widows, orphans, slum workers, said: "The people are very generous to-day, Rabbi." Jesus was interested in the amounts the givers took away, supremely intent upon the mind rather than the money. He had no word to say until the widow made her supreme sacrifice. He felt no pity for her; but pleasure in her as He made the startling statement, "She has cast in more than all they that are casting into the treasury." We would naturally have expected the Great Teacher to have sat over against the pulpit, watching how some eloquent rabbi expounded and applied the law and how the congregation listened; or in some quiet place of the choir loft beholding how the cantor led and the great choir of Levites rendered the worship of praise and the chorus took it up. Undoubtedly, He noted these things, but the only inspired record of His interest in the temple worship tells of His sitting against the treasury. The concrete result of preaching and praise appealed to Him more than their matter in preparation or their method in delivery. As He was then, so He is to-day. The essential in our worship is how we cast into God's treasury. That part of the service should be the service's centre. The Communion table is its only fit receptacle. To advertise "No Collection" is to eviscerate worship and turn it into a combination lecture and concert. Money is the tangible evidence of work accomplished. Our work belongs to God, and the more it is consecrated, the more of ourselves we dedicate to Him. In systematic support of the church this congregation has made rapid progress. The average given by each member, man, woman and child, is larger now than ever before. I said "given." The word is misleading. We don't "give" our taxes to pay for schools, teachers, books and janitors. When we go to a musicale, we don't give our dollar for a seat, nor do we give something to the doctor or the roofer, when we pay their bills. Taxes for religious instruction in the Sunday school, for church property, repairs and improvements, for music, for a man to spend all his time in the care of souls and thus be as proficient as the man we pay to give all his time to the care of bodies, are obligatory in England, Germany and Russia. They are voluntary here, but no more really the equivalent of value received, the New Testament continuation of the temple dues. I am beholden to none of you if, as the preacher' of the Gospel, I live by the Gospel. You are beholden to me to see that the time I ought to use for my work is not diverted to worrying over my modest bills. The one mite was the widow's due. Her credit that far was the simple one of any person who does his duty. Her glory is that because the times were hard she did not omit giving for some one else. Because she put her beneficence on the same basis with her obligations, she is immortalized. To speak of the widow's mite is a misnomer. One important lesson of the story is that of the duplex system taught by the widow's two mites. The spirit of that double offering is inspiring the laymen of our American churches. During the winter seventy-five men's missionary conventions in the United States consider thfs question. Already, crowds of business men have come together at twenty places, in numbers never equalled before outside of political conventions. The largest halls were too small to hold the enthusiasts determined to finance the Kingdom of God as they do their own business. Determinedly they have attacked the hoary custom of weekly offerings for self and yearly offerings for unselfishness, and advocated the substitute of which this widow woman was a pioneer. The weekly envelope has two compartments, one for the tax, one for the gift. The tax goes for church expenses. The object of the gift for each Sunday is plainly printed. Every other week it is for missions, city, national or foreign. The alternate week it goes for some other benefice. The only objections I have heard to this plan are: First—"its additional expense." In reality 1000 sets of fifty-two duplex envelopes in each, cost but $16 more than the other kind. Second—"Its complexity." One use of it will make clear its meaning to the eight-year-old child. The duplex system has no duplicity. It is simpler in all but the name. Third—"Its arbitrary allotments." The church officers have carefully considered all the charities in which our congregation or any considerable part of it are interested, and adjusted their proportionate needs. It is a simple matter for anyone who wishes to give one a larger percentage than thus allotted and a smaller to another cause to write over the one the name of the other. The treasurer will invariably note the change. Only be sure to substitute rather than omit! The most common criticism is that "it robs Peter to pay Paul." The contributor will simply divide into two what formerly he gave to one. Fourth—I have heard from many churches who have tested the theories here expounded. Not one of them but reports substantial increase in the amount given for the local church. One of the largest congregations of our own denomination, which for ten years found itself with a deficiency each May 1, last year, at the close of its first use of the two-offering envelope, had a balance in the treasury, despite unusual expenses. This is but a sample testimony, the unexceptional rule. It accords with the law of the kingdom, "there is that which withholdeth more than it meet and it tendeth to poverty." The fifth objection is "possible inability to carry out the promise." Don't dress your charity in widow's wards unless you are poor as the widow of the two "peelings." If so, give less. Don't stop giving, unless all income stops. With God, the value is not in the quantity, but the quality. Against these five objections, I would array five of the many benefits: 1. Consecration. At the treasury Christ beheld "how" (not how much) the multitude cast. He wants you to give, not because He needs it, but because you need it. Weekly giving is an antidote vs. covetousness, a weekly reminder of whose we are and whom we serve. The nickel piece for which the poorest of us has a dozen uses means more to Christ than the superfluity of the rich, although written in four figures. With the method now adopted, the minister is relieved from that hateful announcement: "The offering this morning is for our own church support," and from a prayer which is largely over his own salary. With the new giving is the new recognition that our field is the world. 2. Committal. It is committal to a principle. Having once gone through the agony of giving up for a year to "the other man" a certain part of our income, while the convalescence may be slow, the acute pain is over. From that time we are custodians of the Lord's money, our duty being simply to hand it out. With other causes, apparently of equal worth, we have nothing to do, unless our income is suddenly increased. Otherwise we are "immune." Some other person must take care of them. If we have given all we can in the "deacon's fund" compartment, when a hard luck story comes to our door, without a twinge of remorse we can send the applicant to a deacon's care. 3. Comprehension. Every one giving means every one interested. Great causes being more frequently and regularly before you, you will want to know more about your frequent investment. A once a year advertisement is good. A once a week advertisement that your responsibilities and privileges are unbounded makes meaningful your prayer. "Thy kingdom come on earth." 4. Consecutiveness. Annual collections are variable as the weather and the state of the general health. They can be and are annually dodged by otherwise regular worshipers. The double envelope is a faithful reminder to those ill, out of town, or otherwise absent one Sunday that their gifts will be expected by the Great Head of the Church just the same. The sinews for the war against sin should not depend upon the clouds, nor the emotional result from either a poor presentation of a good cause or a fine presentation of a poor cause. 5. Convenience.- Most people are paid monthly or weekly. The woman who could not give $25 in a lump sum could easily give fifty cents fifty-two times a year. One dollar comes harder than ten cents a week. In a year, it is only one-fifth as much to the cause. If the home church depended upon annual collections for its support it would be dead. Only the inherent energy of missions keeps missions alive during these weary annual offering years. While the board knows that a church will give, because its "foreign mission Sunday" comes at the end of the year, while foreign mission expenses go on all through the year, good money goes for interest on borrowed capital to supply this deficiency. Christ confronts every Christian with "send or go! Your money or your life!" Your money is your life's expression. Our rendering per head for running expenses is six times that of our gift to God. I have no sartastic comparisons to make. I but say your own thought, "These things ought not so to be." I announce the adoption of a plan for changing them. I remind you that machinery is no value without power. In Bad Fix "I had a mishap at the age of 41, which left fix," writes Mrs. Georgia Usher, of Conyers, Ga.

Every idler should be made to work; if they will not voluntarily work for themselves, compell them to work for the county. The police should visit cortain pool rooms and locali- ties, and they will find many hbabitutes who do nothing but are regular parasites. Clean them all out. Tae Morning News recently contained an editorial making 2 ples for the cutting out of the poll tax past due by white men, thus allowing that class to begin anew as s tax payer. We will make no objection to the proposi- tion, because the same would have to be applied to our men. There aro hundreds of colored men who are anxious to be qualified yoters, but who have allowed their poll tax to accumulate to such an ex- tent that they are about unable to meet the demand, The. eliminat- ing of the back tax would benefit this class. Let the elimination take place. Onxy a few more weeks remain before the registration books will be closed. In this county the number of yoters already on the list compare favorably with former years, yet not as many as the pop- xlation of this county warrants. Within the time before the closing of the books, there should be many hundred more added. Our men should be mindful of their franchise and donot allow the same to be lost by default. While they have an opportunity of be- ing placed on the registration books, advantage should be talten of it. This applies not only to our men in this county, but esp e- cially in the district and state at large. Unpun x Washington date line the Atlanta Journal, published the following: “Washington, March 4—The appoint- ment of Henry Lincoln. Johnson the colored attorney of Atlanta, to ‘be recorder of deeds for the District of Golumbia, at a sist of $4000 per year, io zot pleasing the southern Ne roe, particularly the leaders in Geor- gia This statement is based upon au- thentic information. Moreover John- son's appointmont has not been wel- camed by the black aristocracy of the national capital. “Johnson is too plain, too muclt of a Negro to suit the Washington darkies and too much of @ Democrat to please the Georgia colored folks. Johnson is one of the educated darkies who knows ‘hia place, and who nover attempts to introde. ‘He is not at all officious, and will make an acceptable official to the people of Washington. long accustomed to having this office dominated by 2 darkey.” Wonder how Col. “Link” ap. preciates being classed as a “‘demo- crat.” As to his character he is given a clean bill, especially as he is a ‘'darky who knows his place.” It is reported that his confirmation will be contested and many alleg- ed acts of the past. will be brought to bare against him. _ Borris Brown Again. ee a Anent s clipping from ‘Tur Trreuve by a Jacksonville, Fla., daily, both of which had bearing upon the Morris Brown College controversy, I wish to congratu- late you upon the forceful correc- tion you made. Tue Tarsunx, whateref else has been said of it, has always been discerning and aonservative., If not erred in the former, it cleaved tenaciously ‘to te latter, thus enabsing 1 to Te- main, constantly, in the cur- rent of popular approval, exempt from contumely and criticism. Weall have feelings regarding the Morris Brown College contro: versy; but” the fight is of such nature as to makeé-one stand by and look on. Once a-rustic youth was heard singing these lines Nobody's blasted business, Don't kear'how mer lover treat me, ‘De Lo'd Know I loves her des de same.” Now, the simple and the sane can make the connection without the aidof mentaltelepathy. Then isn’t it wise, in this case, to stand upon neutral territory? True, its is that : . “Birds in their little nests agree, And 'tis a shameful sight, ‘That children of ono family, Fall ont and chide and fight,” but how about the wisdsm of an alien who jumps into a family scrap without invitation. Ina garden, a swing, having # a heavy seat, made of solid, oak, was being moved, fiercely,” back and forth by the wind. A vicious goat had found his way into the garden. He saw the movements of the swing and accepted them as achallenge. Coming to this con- clusion, he made the initial attack, “butting” the board squarely in the centre. After which “‘there was something rolling on the ground,” and it wasn’t the swing either. Well, after the dust of the affray rolled away, there arose from the scene of battle a ‘‘sad- der but 2 wiser goat.” The swing, being in_ its natural ele- ment, kept up its swaying, but the goat simply looked on. T believe this controversy will be settled within the ranks of the church and college. I believe Stinson will be meritted for the good he has done, and if he has done evil, he will be rewarded ac- cordingly. I belieye he will be made, finally, a factor in the plac- ing of the college where it be- longs. I believe that. every one involved has the churchand the school deeper at heart than any desire to manipulate them or any parts of them for personal agran- disement. believe. “implicity, in the ultimate triumph of right; and believing thus, I thifdk I may reasonably conclude, (the prepond- erent desire of the noble men of the great A. M. E. Church being for the right,) that the contro- versy is almost at an end and the brethren are, or will be, I predict, and that at an carly date, assemb- ling for a Love Feast. Thail such atime with delight because I love the church and hope for perfect peace and har- mony within its ranks. Roy Reginald. In Behalf of Work South. Archdeacon Richard Bright, of St Stephen’s Episeopal Church, visited Philadelphia last’ week, where he was extended very cor- dial invitation to make several ad- dresses in the interest of the work south among our people. It goes without saying that Mr. Bright made an impression that will bere- sultant of much good for our peo plein this section. It only re- quires men of Mr. Bright's stami- ma to fully represent us and in 0 snanner that will be effective. | _Pror. DuBois in an address in New York uttered a mighty truth when he gave the demngogic white politicians a broadside as well as the selfish employers, He said: “Three tools are used by the white people of this country. They are personal insult, repres- sion and persecution. Proper en- ‘couragement is denied the-Negro, iproper advantages for develop- sment are also denied him. “Every time inthe south that 2 politican gets out of a job. he tries ito set the two great classes of Ja- Ibor—the enfranchised and the dis. ifranchised—against cach other. ‘Likewise, the white employer uses this same prejudice to warn his cwhite employees that he will fill their places with Negroes if they do not comply with his demands. ‘Thus there is growing up between ‘the races a belief that each is z cmenace to the other. ‘There lies the real danger of the situation.” St. Philip Dots. - | Communion services on Sunday were iowell attended.

Turkey Industry. Blackhead among turkeys ,has ome so near to working extinction ‘of the “national bird” in New Ens- land and elsewhere that an extended Anvestigation of the cause of the dis- ease is being made by such scientists as Dr. Theobald Smith and Dr. E. 5. Tyzzer, of the Harvard Medical School, and Dr. Philip Hadley, of the State Experimental Station, of Rhode Island. A similar disease has of late spread to game birds, such as par- tridges and quail, and the Massachu- Setts fish and game commission {s prosecuting an investigation in this special line. . When the disease attacks a turkey or game bird, there is no hope, say the scientists. The cause has brought forth a variety of opinion, the most forcible being that the common Eng- lish sparrow carries the organism rwhich affects the larger birds. ~—— * - Yertinent Pointers, “If your flock of poultry shows per. sistent lack of thrift and robust health, the best thing to do 1s tc change stock, You will not accom. plish much otherwise. When a fel- low gets on the wrong track, the best thing is usually to back out and start entirely new. * No wonder the poultry business fs growing each year. There are more than 5000 poultry shows being held annually in the United States and ‘Cafada, each one of which is a val- uable bureau for the dissemination of -poultry lore and the chicken fever. Cabbage is one of the most popular ‘winter green féods for fowls, It is veasily gtown, easily kept, and easily “fed, and the fowls seem never to tire +of it. A good way to feed it Is to sus- pend a head in the air by sticking it von a nail In the wall, making the “fowls jump a few inches in order to areach it, * -Fnmigate the hen house often ‘enonzh to destroy all germs and ver- min. Zt also pays to use a good dis- dnfectant frequently and freely round tho houses and yards. Disin- fecting and fumigation are two im- portant matters and should” receive more attention than they do. ‘The importance of exercise for poul- try might well be placed subordinate only to good housing and’ feeding. But 2 writer in anagriculturalmonth- ay pertinently remarks that “scratch- Ang to get a minute's peace from nites and other pests is not the right ikind of efercise.” The truth is ob- wwious. Give the fowls plenty of encour- ‘agement to scratch for their grain feed by keeping a portion of each pen deeply bedded with leaves or straw. There is nothing like it for promoting thrift and contentment among a flock of fowls in the winter, and it is also a great aid towards getting fertile, hatchable eggs, Keep Eietter Cows. T As cities increase in population ‘there Is an annual expansion in the -demané for dairy products. The mere Qact that in 1908 there was an in- ~crease of 626,000 milch cows report- ved in {he United States indicates a wonderful broadening of the dairy industry. Railway transportation fa- -cilitfes are improved, traffic rates are more reasonable and the city supply of mili and dafry products ts er- tending farther into the country, ‘says Drovers’ Journal. ‘Where help can be obtained to op- ‘erate the dairy mill production is ‘one of the best paying branches of animal husbandry. The farmers op- erating their. holdings with milch ‘cows are enabled to market all the roughage and grain produced on the farm in milk, butter, cream or cheese. The dairy Industry is especially adapted to build up and Increase the fertility of the farm. It is popular samong farmers, because the farmer xeallzes a monthly income on his in- vestment. As a rule dairymen are thrifty and prosperous agriculturists. ‘The profits of dairy husbandry all depend on the productive ability of the cows. Unquestionably many cows are in dairy herds that do not more than pay the expense of keep, Jeaving no profit to the dairyman, If the Iarmer had $10,000 to Ioan he jwauld prefer to Invest it In six per (cent. first mortgages instead of loan- ‘tag the money without Interest, ‘The famner zelis his hay, grain and rough- luge through the products of his cows, and if the, revenue only equals tthe cost of~prodiction there is no }progt in the Industry. Hes losing athe jnterest on' his investment and re- alizes no profit on his capital if the czpense cf operating his dairy is not less than the gross receipts of the dairy products. : The profits in the dairy industry are measured by the average produc- tion of the cows. -One animal, will produce 3000 pounds of milk in a sea- son, and another cow 8000 pounds, which, sold at $1 per 100 pounds, would represent a difference of $50 in the annual income between the two cows. If the smaller producer only paid for her feed and attendance the larger milkér would net the own- era profit of $50. A herd of twenty Mediocre cows may only produce op- erating expenses, while a dairy of twenty good cows would yield a net profit of $1000. It is to the advan- tage of the dairyman In every partic- ular to weed out his poor cows and replace them, with profitable produc- ers. Flow Peanuts Grow. “Do you know how peanuts grow?” asked Mr, Joseph D. Warren, of Rich- mond, Va.. in a recent interview. “I have found few persons of the North and West who can answer that ques- tion. Some say on a vine, some on a bush, some on a tree, and some in the ground, like potatoes. ~ “The pecullar thing about a peanut is that it grows in two ways—on a bush and like a potato, The first step in the process is the planting of a single peanut. From that a bush ‘grows, lying Close to the ground. A branch stretches out close to/ the earth, and sends up into thd air shoots on which are little yellow flowers, lke buttercups. Directly ‘beneath these flowers, growing straight downward, small, sbarp pointed shoots appear, like thorns. They are called “pegs,” and grow back into the ground. It is at the end of these ‘pegs’ that the peanuts are found.” Forest reports declare that within a few years there will not be,a single chestnut tree within twenty’ miles of: New York City. A fungous disease fs killing them, and fs reported as spreading in all directions. The elimination of the chestnut would be a serious loss to timber resources, for chestnut wood is valuable. The esthetic loss of this noble tree would also be lamentable. With it would go the joys of chestnutting, one of the most delightful pursuits asso- ciated with the first frosts of au- tumn. These excursions of old will always hold delightful place in all reminiscences of youth. — Indiana Stavmer: The Cultivation of Corn. From my observations I am ‘con- vinced that this latter-day machinery for “shallow cultivation” is not, in the majority of instances, on the cor- rect principle; at any rate in this lat- itude. With the present improved soil conditions we have, by under- draining, clover, etc., the low average of twenty-five bushels per acrc—as reported for all the States—is most deplorable. Even the forty bushels credited to Indiana this year, which is above the actual facts, is not more than haif what it should be. * We should plant deeper, and after the first and second plowing, with small shovels, go straight down along side the plants. After this the object should be to keep ont, leaving the roots undisturbed. There are only two methods by which this can be, done properly. One is by the use of larger shovels in order to throw the dirt over to the corn; the other éx- treme shallow cultivation, with drag or harrow, circumstances to govern! the matter according to conditions of soil, season and time of doing it. However, under most conditions I find the larger shovel the better, as it throws the soll up overythe roots to nourish and fully mature a crop of ears. In “ye olden time” the corn ground was furrowed out with a large shovel plow, or maybe a little mold board, corn dropped down in the bot- tom of the furrow, covered with the hoe,“drag or “straddle bug,” and cul- tivated with Jarger shovels on the plow or cultivator. And it took a hard wind to throw down the corn in those days, and needless to say ears hung over the rows, long and hard as stoye’ wood. The writer can re- call as a boy, taking one year as an instance, in 3000 bushels he raised there wasn’t a bushel basketful of nubbins to feed a cow. Indeed I had to break the ears over the doorsill of the old log crib to get It small enough to feed. Let us get down to common sense in the’ matter by’ proéuring a’ planter (or adjusting thé,latter deviées for attaching ‘td the ordinary ones. in use) that has the fenders, or pairs-of ‘dises set before the runners of the planter, making a furrow of-suflicient depth for the seed, but not necessa- rily covering deéper than it should be, or would pe withoutthém. There is reason, yes, true science in the at- ‘tachmonts where such planters’ are to be used, as the discs cut looser and throw up and’ ouf the soil in the dif- ferent grades, mingling together as it falls over the corn as thé runners pass through. This method, properly [appliéd, would work a fevolution, in corn grawing.—I, M. Miller, in ‘the Indiana Farmer. * i 9 . 8 7 —_a Poa C1 @ 5 ‘ fea) SS=> a), we.

Buenos Ayres continues to ‘be the largest Latin American city, the larg- est city south of the equator and the fourth city In the two Americas, be- ing only exceeded by Now York, Chi- cago and Philadelphia. If Buenos Ayres maintains the rate ot increase of the perjod 1904-1909 for the next few years, it will con- tain 1,300,000 people on January 1, 1911, and 2,400,000 im 1924. As the Increase, however, {s constantly growing greater, even larger figures may.be expected, though a slowly in- creasing factor may slightly counter- balance this—the development of the city of Bahis Blanca. Hitherto Buenos Ayros bas been the only port of arrival for all the immigrants com- ing from Exsope, who are just begin- ning to land at Buhia Blanca. This has been one of the main reasons why Buenos Ayres is so much larger than other Argentine citfes. Rosario, the next largest, having 174.000 peo- ple, or slightly Iess than one-seventh ot the population of the capital, and why it is also the main distributing and manufacturing centre. Every other country of settlement hes had at least two separate ports for the reception and distribution .of imml- grants, while Argentina has only had Buenos Ayres. ‘Though the develop- ment of Bahia Blanca must of neces- sity be gradual for soveral years to come, its natural harbor and other advantages may In twenty or thirty years make {t a most formidable Tival to the capital, from which it has already wrested the right to de ealled the greatest wheat shipping port of South Ameria. ‘ FUTURE GREATNESS. “That boy surely will go to Cor- gress when he grows up,” says the tather, after a vain effort to convince bis young dopeful of the enormity of continued disobedience. “What makes you think that?” edks “the mother. “Every time we send him to do something he does just , what we Won't want. him to do, -dnd then comes home ang argues At was what sve wanted; but that we dfdn't know it"—Chicago Evening Post.

PE-RU-NA FOR COUGHS AND COLDS Paris has learned by experience that city improvement pays. The work of reconstruction and beautifying undertaken by Baron Haussmann when he became perfect of the Seine in 1853 cost about $265,000,000, one-third of which sum was provided by the national government, the remaining two-thirds being furnished by the city. The expenditure was tremendous, but the wisdom of making it never has been seriously disputed. Further costly but valuable benefits for Paris are now planned. Recently the French chamber of deputies authorized the municipality to incur an indebtedness of $180,000,000 for another elaborate scheme of improvements, including the demolition of insanitary quarters, the construction of new streets, gardens and schools and other public works. Americans are accustomed to boast of their enterprise. This boasting may be justified as to undertakings of a private nature. But in the matter of public improvements American municipalities lag behind the more progressive cities of Europe.—Chicago News. Big Shell Took a Rest. One of the most remarkable incidents on record of the erratic action of a projectile has just taken place in connection with the battle practice of the Ocean on the Mediterranean station. Firing had taken place with a 6-inch shell at a range of 8,000 yards, and when the umpires made an examination of the target they were surprised to find a shell resting on the wooden base. It is no uncommon occurrence for a shell to become embedded in the structure which carries the target; but in this instance the missile was quite free. The only plausible theory of this is that the shell on being fired fell short; then ricocheted, and finally managed to reach the target before its energy was completely exhausted. Naturally the shell is looked upon as a curiosity, and as such it is proposed to send it to one of the gunnery schools.—London Globe. MISS CLARA PARTON DILIVERS DIPLOMAS. Miss Clara Barton, formerly president of the National Red Cross society, and at present head of the National First Aid Association, had a remarkable reception when she delivered the diplomas to the graduating class of the Philadelphia School for Nurses. When she made her appearance on the stage she was surrounded by a score of young women who waved the flags of all nations over her head while the orchestra struck up, "The Red, White and Blue." The audience rose to its feet and joined in the chorus.—New York Sun. LITTLE PAUL P is for poor little Paul.

A man tried leaving off meat, potatoes, coffee, and etc., and adopted a breakfast of fruit, Grape-Nuts with cream, some crisp toast and a cup of Postum. His health began to improve at once for the reason that a meat eater will reach a place once in a while where his system seems to become clogged and the machinery doesn't work smoothly. A change of this kind puts aside food of low nutritive value and takes up food and drink of the highest value, already quickly digested and capable of being quickly changed into good, rich blood and strong tissue. A most valuable feature of Grape-Nuts is the natural phosphate of potash grown in the grains from which it is made. This is the element which transforms albumen in the body into soft gray substance which fills brain and nerve centres. A few days' use of Grape-Nuts will give one a degree of nervous strength well worth the trial. Look in pkgs, for the little book, "The Road to Wellville." "There's a Reason." TO PHYLLIS.

Horace Greeley was the first president of our Village Improvement Society. I have the minutes. Alonzo Delezene kept the hotel. Joshua Baney was the harness maker. Samuel Allen was tanner, and also kept a nursery; sold the Baldwin apple tree for six cents aplece. Henry Miller ran a magic lantern show and made fancy rocking chairs. Samuel Haight made fur hats for the elderly Quakers. I think that Francis M. Carpenter was Supervisor. Anyway, I drove Horace Greeley over to Carle's corner every year for fourteen years to vote for him. That's all he seemed to come up to election for. Every old Quaker in this section kept a cider mill. All the stone walls in this section were built on pork, cider and five shillings a day, from sunrise to sundown.—Westchester Magazine. Lone Woman Worshiper. One woman comprising a congregation and worshiping alone in a meeting house that once had its full quota every Sunday is an evidence that the gentle Society of Friends is becoming decimated in the new world. Miss Emma Walter every Sunday morning goes to the meeting house at her home in Catawissa, Pa., and there she sits entirely alone, communing with the spirits, according to the custom of the Friends. She is the sole local representative of the faith that William Penn brought to the new world, and which in the early stages of the country's development had enough followers to make it one of the most powerful rebellious organizations in the country.—Springfield Republican You Look Prematurely Old TRIALS of the NEEDEMS YOUR MOTHER COMING TO STAY WITH US FOR A WEEK?

Last year Sir Melvil Beachcroft, chairman of the London County Council, made a speech at the Lyceum Club on what women could do in that body. He began by saying: "I take it you all know what your rights and what your privileges are in that connection." He was quite mistaken. In any 200 women there is certain to be a proportion utterly ignorant, not only of their rights and privileges, but of their duties. Even in the specialized audience addressed by Sir Melvil this was the case. How many women living in London know that they can vote for the twenty-eight borough councils and thirty-one boards of guardians of the London County Council; that they can also be selected themselves for these, be members of the Central Unemployed Body or of the twenty-nine Distress Committees, and also, be coopted to all other bodies like the Local Pendon Committees? Women can be Aldermen of the Council, and there is nothing to prevent any one of them from holding the office of chairman itself. These are the offenses they can hold, but very few of them do.—London Truth. AMONG AUTOCRATS. "Mr. Cumrox used to say he wanted to get rich so that he could be his own boss." "Well, he succeeded."

I have used the Cuticura Remedies, also, for a breaking out on my hands and was benefited a great deal. I haven't had any more trouble with the scalp disease. Miss Jessie F. Buchanan, R. F.

A strong man is strong all over. No man can be strong who is suffering from weak stomach with its consequent indigestion, or from some other disease of the stomach and its associated organs, which impairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach is weak or diseased there is a loss of the nutrition contained in food, which is the source of all physical strength. When a man "doesn't feel just right," when he doesn't sleep well, has an uncomfortable feeling in the stomach after eating, is languid, nervous, irritable and despondent, he is losing the nutrition needed to make strength.

Camps Out in Large Numbers on Filter Beds---Looks Like a Gas Pipe---Has Many Legs and No Head, But is Possessed of a Large Appetite. CLADY LAURIER SCORNS OUR IDEALS AS UNDEMOCRATIC Says Americans Are Far More Eager For Prerogatives Than Europeans---Contempt For Suffragettes---Indecent, Unheard of and Unwomenly to Compete With Men, She Says. GOVERNMENT CONTROL FOR AERIAL TRAFFIC. German Meteorologist Points Out the Necessity to Emperor William and Party. Pittsburg.—The sand beds in the Aspinwall filtration plant here are clogged so by microbes, which look like sections of gaspipe equipped with legs, that the water cannot get through the sand, and there is danger of a water famine on a microbe basis. One of the peculiar features of this newly discovered germ that is puzzling bacterologists not only here but in other cities, is that it seemingly has no head. Neither has it a tail to wag. It is equipped, however, with many flexible legs and seems to know what it is doing all the time. Opinion is expressed here that the germs originated in the mining regions near Blatrsville, thirty miles from the filtration beds, and immediately proceeded to swim down stream to inspect the Pittsburg water system. They liked the filtration beds so well that they decided to camp out there, until now there is a layer of multilegged gaspipe germs on the sand beds that is so thick that little water can get through the sand and into the maus. The situation has become so bad the city, officials are much worried. Their wormliment is increased by the fact that no one seems to know whether it is a malignant or a harmless germ. The fact remains, however, that the city water is so full of flexible legs that it tickles the throats of those who drink it. Another disquieting feature is that boiling the water does not kill the germ. It wiggles its flexible legs a little faster and gets red in the body, but does not die as a result of the boiling process. The Water Department officials are LADY LAURIER SCORNS OUR Says Americans Are Far More Europeans---Contempt For Suit of and Unwomanly to Com St. Louis.—"Democratic ideals in the social life of America?" As she said it the plump placidity of Lady Laurier's face was disturbed by a little upward wrinkle and her ample shoulders described a circle, suggesting incredulous amusement. She was answering the question as to how she, the possessor of a title, with certain royalistic affiliations and predestined preferences, harmonized her situation of being the wife of a Canadian Premier, an elective officer on American soil. Surely, the social contrarities of such a position called for the play of a diplomat of the highest quality. "Royal prerogatives as against democratic ideas, did you say?" she reiterated with rising inflection, leveling her lorgnette with accuracy. "Democratic ideals, well, I haven't observed anything democratic in the social ideals, of America. I don't say that it isn't mixed enough. Americans display a far greater eagerness for royal prerogatives than do Europeans. "Titles are of far greater value on this side than in Europe. Americans pay unqualified homage to royalty, while in Europe their value is disproportionate to their station. Americans seem to need the title and Europeans the money. I do not believe in such marriages. Ameri- GOVERNMENT CONTROL German Meteorologist Po Emperor Willi Berlin.—Emperor William lunched with Dr. Beseier, Prussian Minister of Justice. Before sitting down to the table Prof. Vladimir Koeppen, the meteorologist, read a paper in which he discussed the control of the airfields by the States of the Empire. Prof. Koeppen pointed out various considerations indicating that the regulations are not in immediate motion be regulated, by the governments rather than to permit air above Half the Billboards in St. Louis Must Go. St. Louis.—Fifty per cent. of the space now occupied by offensive and unslightly billboards in all sections of St. Louis will be cleared by Building Commissioner Smith as the result of a court decision. The decision, filed by Judge Woodson and concurred in by Judges Valiant and Lamm, upholds the validity of the billboard ordinance of St. Louis. Judge Woodson said St. Louis has the right to regulate billboards. all at sea. They do not know what the germ is, and have discovered no way to deal with it. Pending further enlightenment from one of the many eminent scientists who are at work trying to classify the germ, it is known here as the Aspinwall_what-is-it? It was by accident the presence of the new germ in the Pittsburg water was discovered. Analysis had revealed so many different sorts$^o$ of germs that it was thought the supply was exhausted. Therefore, when the germ resembling a cross between a section of gas pipe and a centipede was revealed, it could not pass unnoticed, particularly when it was discovered it was eating other germs, although it seemingly had no mouth. Dr. C. S. Drake, superintendent of the filtration beds, and W. U. C. Baton, the city chemist, worked energetically to ascertain the identity of the new germs. They are wholly uncommunicative. Samples of the germs were taken to E. E. Lamper, acting superintendent of the Water Bureau. He put them in bottles and sent them to Professor Mason, of the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N. Y. Other scientists of national or international reputation also received samples. The reports received were far from satisfactory. The bacteriologists say they never had seen anything like it, and that it is an entirely new germ, and that they have no idea what its disease-producing specialty is. Samples of the germ may be sent to scientific centres in Europe in the hope the mystery will be fathomed.

A title cannot mean anything in America because it was bought." Lady Laurier paid not the slightest attention to the interviewer's sug- gestion about the wrongs perpetrated upon her sex. None aroused her pity or scorn. Her sympathies, were born of another period of English life. Lady Laurier's sympathies are not with the suffragette movement. "It is indecent," she said, "un- heard of and altogether too unwom- anly for a woman to compete with masculine superiority." She had no children, had been a good wife, devoted to her husband, as God ordained her and her breeding predestined her. They have few suffragettes in Canada. "I once saw a procession of them," said the wife of Senator Jones, who, with the Senator and other statesmen of Canada, was with the party. "They were all so frightfully ugly. I at once saw that they could not have been anything else but suffragettes." "Who would want to make asses of themselves like the English suffragettes are doing," added Mrs. Bristol, wife of Edward Bristol, M. P., another member of the party that is going to Hot Springs for rest and the benefit of Lady Laurier's health.

New York City.—George White, sentenced to five years in the Federal prison at Atlanta for counterfeiting, told Judge Hough that he learned the process he employed from an article in a well-known magazine. The article, he said, gave a detailed description of the method of _counterfeiting with plaster of paris molds. He tried it and was so successful that he "went into the business." Four others arrested with White were,also sentenced.

The suspension for non-payment of dues is a timely topic in all lodges, at least, towards the close of the financial year. Of course, members forget to pay their dues and it necessarily entails upon the secretary of the lodge a lot of labor in seeing that the dues of the negligent brethren are collected. This means hard work for the secretary, and we often think that the brethren should be more thoughtful in not putting burdons on a generally overworked official. Lodges, of course, can hold members to the strict letter of the law and more or less arbitrary measures in carrying out that law. The writer has known Masons who overlooked their dues until the time for suspension had arrived, and who were very much hurt by the summary action taken by the lodge. He has seen cases also where brethren present had paid the dues of some brother whose name had been read and afterwards found the brother had overlooked the matter, and was very much pleased to see that some member had thought enough of him to save him from the disgrace of being suspended. No brother should be suspended until it was clearly shown that he had been properly notified of what the result would be, should he not pay his dues, or give reason why action should not be enforced in his particular case.—Masonic Sun. If you are living for yourself alone, you had better do the mourning for yourself now, there-will be no one to do it at your funeral.—Missouri Frecason. ONLY THE WORKING SYMBOLS. ONLY THE WORKING SYMBOLS. Masonry, says the outside world, is but a secret society with its signs and words by which they recognize each other. But these are only its working symbols. For centuries its experience has been that of love toward fellow men ever teaching as its basic principle the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of man. The organization is composed primarily of good men. We do not seek to reform men, but only men who are primarily good can gain admission. There are three leading principles upon which we might say the organization is based. First, harmony. This harmony we must have. We move along in peace together, working in the spirit of unity. Second, fidelity. Every word of our teaching almost is a sermon. Be faithful to country, to family and to God. Being thus faithful to our country and to our flag, we are taught patriotism. First of all we are faithful to our family. There is no better friend than Masonry to woman. Third, charity, and a good deal of this. Besides these, energy, zeal and high aspiration should mark the course of every Mason. Have an ideal and set that ideal high, and if you fail to reach it, try again, and don't be afraid of putting your ideal too high, but keep it there, and then keep trying to reach it.—George M.

It was at summer hotel, and the baby, being warm and fretful, cried. "Tut! Tut! We can't disturb our neighbors this way," the fond father said, taking the child in his arms. "Let me sing to him, if he won't go to sleep." He sang, and straightway came a knock, at the door and these words: "There's a sick lady next door and, if it's all the same to you, would you mind letting the baby cry instead of singing to it?"—Lippincott's.

Best 40-Cent Dinner: Chicago, Ill. — Twenty thousand tried for a prizio offered by a morning newspaper in the menu contest for the best 40-cent dinner for four people. Mrs. Frank Leslie Eldridge carried off the laurels. This is her menu: Vermilcaili soup, bread and butter, veal fricasee, mashed potatoes, Dutch slaw, baked apples, coffee. Truth may have a thousand tongues but only one face. THE LACE DRESS ter length, including two puffs, or if eight and three-quarter yards twenty the waist is wanted for daytime use four or twenty-seven, seven and three the yoke and deep puffs can be added, quarter yards thirty-two or five and making it high neck and with long three-quarter yards forty-four inches sleeves New York City.—The simple full waist made with the round neck is always a charming one for evening occasions. This one is finished with a flat shaped band that allows effective 1 use of embroidery or of applique, and is graceful in the extreme, while it is absolutely simple. It can be made either with the short sleeves illustrated or with sleeves of three-quar- ter length, including two puffs, or if the waist is wanted for daytime use the yoke and deep puffs can be added, making it high neck and with long sleeves. The waist is made with a fitted lining, and consists of front and backs. These last are gathered and arranged over the foundations and the shaped band finishes the neck. When high neck is used the lining is cut to the throat and faced with yoking material. There are regulation sleeve linings on which the full puffed sleeves are arranged and which are faced to form the cuffs when full length is desired. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three yards twenty-one of twenty-four, two and a half yards twenty-seven or thirty-two, one and three-eighth yards forty-four inches wide, with five-eighth yard of silk for bands, one yard of all-over lace when high neck and long sleeves are used. The Fashionable Vells. Face vells of plain-mesh with small chenille dots close together, either in black or brown, are most fashionable. The brown vells are worn with the green or checked gowns more frequently than black ones with the hats that match as the contrast of color is not as sharp. The Embroidered Initial. Many beautiful monograms are made within a circle, a square, an oblong square, an oval or within a leaf form, and it is frequent in these late and most beautiful lettering devices to find the backgrounds filled in with darned work, with seedstitch, with basket weave or some small lattice pattern. This method is intended to throw the letters into relief, at the same time that it renders the initial more ornate and beautiful. The Upstanding Brush A very satisfactory substitute for the osprey is a brush of gold, wire nearly as fine as thread. A gold ornament holds the wire threads at the base. This resembles an Old World bouquet holder in its cornucopia form. The upstanding brush is used to give a military dash to fur toques, and is invading the realm of millinery, with great success. Seven Gored Maternity Skirt. The skirt that is simple, yet includes a generous number of seams, is always a desirable one for maternity wear. The seams give an effect of slenderness and the many gores allow satisfactory shaping. This one can be made either in walking or round length and is adjusted at the waist line by means of an elastic inserted in a casing, so that the waist is easily accommodated to the need. Serge is the material illustrated, but all plain and all striped sorts are appropriate. Figures should be avoided. The skirt is cut in seven gores, which are shaped to give the best possible lines. It is finished at the waist line with a casing and elastic that allow of increasing the size easily and satisfactorily. The quantity of material required for the medium size is ten yards twenty-seven or thirty-two, five and three-quarter yards forty-four inches wide. If material has figure or nap. eight and three-quarter yards twenty-four or twenty-seven, seven and three-quarter yards thirty-two or five and three-quarter yards forty-four inches M wide if material has neither figure nor nap; width of skirt at lower edge three and seven-eighth yards. Crystal Bugles. Evidently the crystal bugle, with its half-sister the gold bugle, is supply most of the trimming this season.
