LaCrosse, Wis.-The United States government is to go into the business of propagation of clam to supply the pearl button industry, which is languishing because of a scarcity of shells. The first station is to be established at LaCrosse, M. F. Stableton, a representative of the fisheries' bureau, being here to confer with Congressman Esch regarding the details. The spawn of the clam is attached to carp, which are then turned loose and the spawn is redeposited in the bed of the river, new clam beds forming. Savannah CABINET IS DISRUPTED. Pissension Amo.g Advisers of President Taft Serious. Washington, D. C.—The cabinet of President Taft is threatened with disruption. Despite the denials given out in response to persistent rumors of approaching resignation of cabinet officials, the impression is widespread that within a short time two or three members will get out. The cabinet circle is torn with dissension; and the widespread popular criticism of the administration has not helped to smooth ruffled feelings or to harmonize differences. President Taft said he knew nothing of contemplated resignation of cabinet officials. Secretary of the Treasury MacVegh gave out both form- and informal denials of stories published in the New York papers. Secretary Knox is the head of one faction in the cabinet. He is supported on the floor of the senate by Senators Aldrich, Crane, Bourne and Penrose. This coterie of senators are at outs with Postmaster General Hitchcock over patronage matters, and believe he has exercised too much power in snapping the affairs of the administration and ought to be relegated to his own department or, possibly, to private life. In the cabinet, Secretaries Dickinson and Meyer stand with the opposition to Hitchcock, and this has led to the postmaster general's complaint to his friends that a cabal has been formed to drive him out of the cabinet. The postmaster general is supported by Secretaries MacVeagh, Ballinger and Nagel. It is admitted that Mr. Hitchcock had much to do with these men being taken in the cabinet. Naturally this condition of affairs cannot long exist and there will be a breaking up of the president's official family. Secretary Dickinson may resign to enter the race for senator from Tennessee. The resignation of Secretary MecVeagh is expected at an early date. That of Secretary Ballinger will probably be handed in at the close of the present Ballinger-Pinchot investigation, even if he is exonerated, as his friends have all along felt he would be. Rumor has put the limit of his service at December 1. INSURGENTS ARE PEEVISH. G. O. P. Rchels Enraged by Speaker Cannon's Taunts. Washington, D. G.—The courage of the house insurgents has been brought up to the sickling, by the persistent and repeated jibes and taunts of the speaker. They now openly declare that before the end of the present session of congress they will proceed to take the speaker's scalp. Since the bitter tirade of Speaker Cannon following the rejection of the house of the provisions for $2,500 for the up-keep of the speaker's automobile, the insurgents have been wroth. The insurgents have endured about as much taunting from the speaker and suffered in silence about as long as their pride will permit. Patience has almost ceased to be a virtue. They will do nothing for the present interference with the speedy passage of legislation, for they have all along insisted upon their support of the republican administration program and do not want to be put in the position of obstructionists. But the deposition of Speaker Cannon has practically been decided upon. It will come before the session ends and refute the prediction of Speaker Cannon that he will be speaker on March 4 next. If the insurgents adhere to their determination to vote with the democrats to oust Speaker Cannon, the prediction is made that the house will be deadlocked for many weeks. It will be impossible for the insurgents, and the democrats to get together on a candidate and it may be difficult for the insurgents and the republicans to agree to a compromise. Some republicans are figuring on the probability of the house adjourning without electing a speaker. MT. M'KINLEY CONQUERED. Eairbanks Expedition Reached Summit of Famous Mountain. Fairbanks, Alaska—The Fairbanks expedition to Mount McKinley, the tallest peak in North America, reached the summit April 3 after a climb of one month from the base, it was announced. No traces of Dr. Frederick A. Cook's alleged ascent were found. The mountain's height is 20,464 feet. The expedition, headed by Thomas Lloyd, had Dr. Cook's maps and endeavored to follow his supposed route, but utterly failed to verify any part of his story of an ascent. The climbing was fairly easy up to 12,000 feet, then there was 4,000 feet over a steep ice field and a quick dash to the summit. There are two peaks of equal height and on one of these, rocky and wind-swept, the American flag was planted. The other peak is snow-covered. Great American Pearl New York City—An American pearl weighing 167 grains has arrived in New York from White River, Ark. It is as round as a marble, and is said by New York dealers to be the largest fresh water pearl ever seen in this country. The gem is a beautiful pink in color, and is valued at $20,000 by Maiden Lane appraisers. Obscene Matter in Mails. Washington, D. C.—With the determination of breaking up the evil of sending obscene material through the malls, Postmaster General Hitchcock is considering the advisability of suggesting that hereafter all treaties made with foreign powers shall contain provisions for the extradition of those found guilty of this offense. THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, APRIL 16, 1910. CANAL FORTIFICATIONS SITES FOR FORTS SELECTED The Canal Will Pay the Expenses of Its Own Washington, D. C.—The Panama canal will have to pay the expense of its own fortifications. This appears to be the opinion of the vanguard of the army expert board walch has just arrived in Washington from Panama after a careful selection of the line of the canal with special reference to the selection of sites for the forts and the determination' of the extent of the armament needed. The act of 1902, though much amended by subsequent legislation, would seem to carry that inference and consequently the cost of fortification will probably be met by the issuance of Panama canal bonds. It is impossible at present to state the cost of tails work. In the first place, while the commission has tentatively selected the sites for the defenses at both entrances of the canal and at points along the line in the interior where it is exposed to destructive attack, such as the Gatun dam and the great mira flores locks, much of this land belongs to private parties and its value must be assured before it can be acquired. General Murray, chief of artillery; General Crozier, chief of ordance; General Marszall, chief of engineers, and Captain Embyck, an expert artillery officer, are among those who returned to Washington and as soon as the remainder of the commission, now on the isthmus, has returned to this city, an effort will be made to prepare the report, showing just what is needed to provide for the complete defense of the canal. Much heavy ordinance, some of it composed of 14-inch guns, probably will be required, and as it takes a long time to make these big guns and transport them to the isthmus, put them in place and erect the defensive earthworks and concrete construction, it will be necessary to hasten the project in order to insure its completion by the date the canal will be opened in 1914 or 1915. PINCHOT MEETS ROOSEVELT. Former Chief Forrester and ex-Presi dent Confer. Porto Maurizio, Italy.—Mr. Roosevelt's widely heralded meeting with Gifford Pinchot, the deposed chief forester of the United States department of agriculture, occurred on the yeranda of Miss Carew's villa, overlooking the blue waters of Porto Maurizio bay. The interview proper took place in the seclusion of the forest in the outskirts of the town. Mr. Pinchot, who came direct from Copenhagen save for a six-hours' stop at Basle, Switzerland, had arrived at the hotel rather tired after his long journey, but he told the newspaper men that he felt "like a fighting cock." He announced in advance that he would have nothing to say regarding his interview with "the chief." The greetings between the two men were extremely cordial. These over, Mr. Roosevelt returned to his letters, while Mr. Pinchot visited with Mrs. Roosevelt^a After luncheon Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Pinchot, Mrs. Roosevelt and her sister, Miss Carew, started out for a walk. Soon the women were left behind and the two men, forging ahead, finally plunged into the forest. It is understood that Mr. Roosevelt gave Pinchot orders to administer the deathblow to the "Back from Elba" movement, although both, in the first flurry of questioning, refused to refer to that phase of the situation. Since Mr. Roosevelt emerged from the wilds of the jungle, however, it was apparent to those about him that the "Back from Elba" movement /as it has been gaining headway in America, is entirely distasteful to him. POSTAL DEFICIT VANISHING. Reduction of Over $6,000,000 in Six Months. Washington, D. C.-Basing his conclusions on the auditor's return of postal receipts and expenditures of for the first half of the fiscal year and on returns for the third quarter of the year, Postmaster General Hitchcock predicted that the first of the present administration would show a decrease of over $10,000,000 in the deficit of $17,480,000 handed down from the preceding year.' The deficit for the first half of this year was $7,200,000 as against $10,255,000 for the first half of last year, a reduction of more than six millions in six months. REHEARING FOR TRUSTS. Supreme Court Reassigns Standard Oil and Tobacco Cases to Calendar- Calef Justice Fuller did not announce any, decision further than to state that the case had been reassigned to the calendar. No reason was given as to why this action was taken, but it is assumed that the death of the late Justice Brewer was the cause of the court's action. The general opinion around the court was that the arguments will not take place until Justice Brewer's successor is appointed. House Passes Bill Providing For Construction of New Fighting Ships. Washington, D. C.-By a decisive vote of '612 to 110, fourteen being present and not voting, the house authorized the construction of two battleships to cost $8,000,000 each. Thirty-three democrats voted for two battleships and twenty-four republicans against-the proposition. This action was taken just prior to the passage of the naval appropriation bill carrying $128,037,602. This amount is about $3,000,000 less than was recommended by the navy department. In addition to the battleships, the bill also provides for the construction of two nect colliers and four submarine boats. As amended on motion of Mr. Fitzgerald of New York, the two battleships and two fleet colliers must be constructed by firms operating under the eight-hour law. The committee on naval affairs and reported in favor of authorizing two battleships. Mr. Tawney of Minnesota, chairman of the appropriations committee, offered an amendment providing for only one battleship, while Mr. Hobson proposed an amendment providing for three. Mr. Hobson contended that three battleships would give no increase, but would provide only for the ordinary depreciation in the naval forces. By an almost unanimous vote the house rejected this proposition. WOMAN SUFFRAGE GROWING Increasing 'Faster Than It Can Be Cared For, Says Leader. Washington, D. C.—Women suffrage in the United States is growing faster than the national American Women Suffrage Association can take care of it, declared Rev. Anna Howard Saaw, president of the organization, who arrived in the national capital to attend the annual convention of the association. "She expressed herself as more than pleased with the outlook. "Everything in the coming convention will be peaceful," she asserted. "I see by some of the paper," she added, with a smile, "that there will be two warring factions and that there will be hostilities between those who favored militant method and those who believe in a quiet, dignified campaign. American women will not resort to those methods used by the English suffragettes, said Miss Shaw, unless the men force them into it. 10 YEAR OLD MOTHER. Daughter is Born to a 10-Year-Old Girl - Chicago, Ill.—Officials of the juvenile court began an investigation of the case of Annie Eps, ten years old, who gave birth to a girl baby at the county hospital several days ago. It was reported that the young mother and child were doing well. "The young mothers' age has been investigated and it has been found absolutely true that she is just ten years old," a physician of the hospital said. "She is one of the youngest mothers known in this part of the world." Stubbed His Toe on Diamonds. New York City.—A chauffeur whose name is withheld, stubbed his toe against a small oblong package in front of a Sixth avenue jewelry store and, opening it, found a $10,000 diamond necklace. He read the advertisements and he received from the owner just half of its value as a reward for his honesty—$5,000. Begging Colleges Denounced. Poughkeepsie, N. Y.-At the closing session of the Methodist Episcopal Conference, Chancellor James R. Day of Syracuse University, in an address, denounced the colleges and institutions founded by religious people that "groveled in the dust before the Carnegie -Foundation and went back on their founders in order to obtain pensions:" Newsy Paragraphs. J. Schorley, mayor of Kenosha, Wis., introduced a new feature into Kenosha politics when he distributed five thousand bars of toilet soap as a means of calling attention to his candidacy for re-election. The soap is ordinary toilet size, and on one side of the white bar, in raised letters, is "Purity Soap," while on the reverse side is a picture of the mayor and the inscription, "A clean, administration." The mayor recently came out with a declaration for a cleaner city. Mail orders for seats to the grand opera performances that are to be produced at the Atlanta Auditorium armory during the first week in May are pouring into the office of the treasurer of the Atlanta Music Festival in a steady stream. Reservations for individual performances will open on April 18. Seats may be bought at from $5 to $1 each, according to location. There is not a seat in the auditorium that is not desirable. Dr. James G. Cumming, director of the Pasteur institute of the University of Michigan, announced the discovery of a new method for the treatment of hydrophobia. The new treatment, Dr. Cumming says, eliminates many of the dangers attending the former methods and shortens the time of treatment by one week. Dr. Cumming uses a virus prepared from the spinal tissues of a rabid animal. This is injected into the altent. The virus is said to have been used in several cases recently with marked success. Memoirs of the cooking of his "old mammy" induced-J. R. Bingham of Carrollton, Miss., to give $5,000 for founding a cooking school for negroes at Augusta, Ga. "The 'new' negro can't cook," says Mr. Bingham. MONEY FOR WATERWAYS APPROPRIATIONS INCREASED Washington, D. C.—The report of the senate committee on commerce giving increases in the rivers and the harbors appropriation bill over the amounts carried as the bill passed the house, was completed. The net increase in cash appropriations amounts to $6,380,567, contract authorizations $3,627,675, or a total of $40,003,242. The items of cash increase include the following: North Carolina—Cape Fear river above Wilmington, $90,000; Cape Fear river below Wilmington, $200,000. South Carolina—Waccamaw river, $36,000. Georgia—Coosa river, Mayes bar, $45,000. Florida—St. Johns river, Jacksonville to the ocean, $115,000; St. Johns river, $32,400; St. Andrews bay, $32-605. Alabama—Coosa river, dam No. 4, $25,000.

North Carolina—Cape Fear river above Wilmington, $515,000. Florida—St. Andrews bay, $128,560. TO PREVENT HOOK WORM. Keep Feet off Ground Remedy for Disease. Chicago, III.—The oldtime negro shout, "Keep yo' feet off de groun," is really an excellent prescription for the prevention of hook worm infection, according to Dr. Hollis B. Frissell of the Rockefeller sanitary commission, who has just completed a tour of the southern states. "In advanced cases, where the worm has done its worst, there is no remedy, said Dr. Frissell. "In all ordinary cases, however, the proper treatment will cure in a year or two. Infection is largely through the foot, and if the negroes and poor whites can be gotton to wear shoes, the principal cause of infection will be removed. In some parts of the south, particularly where the soil is sandy, fully 70 per cent of the poorer classes are infected." Dr. Frissell said that with the application of present knowledge of the disease, the hook worm may soon become a thing of the past. PULLMAN RATES UNJUST. Important Ruling by the Commerce Commission. Washington, D. C.-The interstate commerce commission, in a decision, holds it to be "unjust and unreasonable" for the Pullman company to charge equally for the upper and lower berths in the sleeping cars. Differential charges are ordered in several instances, and Pullman rates from Chicago to the Pacific are ordered reduced. While this ruling of the commission orders reductions in rates which were specifically and formally complained of, it is recognized as the opening wedge for a readjustment of sleeping car rates wherever they exceed the average which th commission has found to be just and reasonable in these instances. The Pullman company, it is said, will carry the decision to the courts. ENGLAND SHIPPING COTTON. Effort is Being Made to Break the the Patten Bull Campaign. New York City.—The steamer Baltic brought over 6,799 bales of cotton from Liverpool. This is the second shipment of the present movement, brought about in an attempt to break the Patten bull campaign in May cotton. Ten thousand bales arrived last week and 50,000 bales in all have been engaged for shipment. TRAVELING A LA MAIL POUCH Illinoisan Has Invention to Wheel Passenger from Trains. Washington, D. G. — Rapid transit, as it perhaps had never been dreamed of by any other man, has been offered to the postoffice department by an Effington, III, inventor. This inventor had a scheme to run a railroad train at the rate of 80 miles an hour for 500 miles without stopping, which, hr claimed, would unload passengers, mail and baggage meanwhile. His device would whirl the most delicate passenger out of the car and into the station without lessening the speed of the train or injuring the passenger. It would do the same with mails, he said. His invention was declined. e. "Southern Field." Published By the Southern Railway Company, Praises Dixie. Atlanta, Ga. — "The South as a Profitable Field for Stock Raising." Is the theme of the April issue of the Southern Field, the official organ of the land and industrial departments of the Southern railway, the Mobile and Ohio, the Georgia, Southern and Florida, the Alabama Great Southern and the Cincinnati New Orleans and Texas Pacific railroads. Advance proofs which have just come from the press indicate that this issue, thousands of copies of which will be placed in the hands of desirable setters now living in the north and west, will preach a great sermon on the opportunities for profit in the stock business in the south. The leading article tells of the great awakening of interest in this industry in the south and the opening of a mammoth packing house in-Atlanta is pointed out as an indication that the movement for the south to raise its food at home is now well under way. Well written articles fully illustrated, tell of the advantage to be found in various parts of the south and the northern or western farmer is assured that by coming south he can procure cheaper land with a climate giving practically twice as much time for work in the year and still pursue the kind of agricultural industry too which he is accustomed, instead of having no alternative but to raise cotton. Wiregrass Georgia and the section along the line of the Augusta Southern railroad come in for a considerable share of attention, but no section of the south is neglected and though the raising of live stock is given chief attention all braces of southern agriculture and industry are touched upon. This magazine, which is published under the direction of Land and Industrial Agent M. V. Richards, is a great booster for the south and all readers are assured that any one interested in the south will be given the fullest information on application to the department's headquarters in Washington, where facts and figures concerning any section of the south are to be had at a moment's notice and a permanent exposition of the south's resources is maintained open to the investigation of any one. Bailway to Bar Women. .Pittsburg, Pa.-A report that the Baltimore and Ohio railroad will in the future bar the employment of women stenographers, clerks and telegraph operators was confirmed here. No women now in the employ of the railroad will be discharged because of their sex, but none will be given positions from now on. Because his discharge from the army shows that he was one of the two men who captured Jefferson Davis in Savannah, a, forty-five years ago, John Wolen, aged seventy, was released from the Seattle, Wash., fall on suspended sentence. Wolen was convicted of "bootlegging." His discharge shows that he served in Company F, seventh Pennsylvania calvary, during the war. Governor Stubbs of Kansas in a Chicago speech defended state-wide prohibition as practical in his state. He said that as a result people in Kansas were now better clothed, better fed and have finer homes, that they have bigger families and bigger bank accounts. They had thus, in his opinion, refuted the cry the abolition of the saloon would mean business stagnation. An authority of Captain D. F. Owl bon, one of the most active supporters of Dr. Frederick A. Cook, it was announced in New York city, that about $175,000 had been guaranteed toward a fund to help Dr. Cook prove his claim to discovery of the north pole. A prominent western man, Captain Osbon said, had pledged $100,000 of this sum. Captain Osbon said that he was in correspondence with the explorer and that he expected the doctor home by the latter part of the present month. Ricardo Martin, the tenor, who will divide honors with Caruso at Atlanta's grand opera productions, May 2, 4, 6 and 7, is delighted-at the prospect of coming to the south. Martin is a Kentucky boy, and obtained his first musical training in Nashville, Tenn. He is American through and through, and proud of the fact that he is of the sunny south. Washington. A system of accounting to determine the cost of work at all navy yards was provided for by the house by the adoption of an amendment to the naval bill appropriating $30,000 for that work. The amendment stipulates that the system to be put into effect shall be similar to that established at the Boston navy yard in July, 1909. Former Vice President Fairbanks declined the offer extended to him by President Taft to act as a special envoy of the United States to Buenos Ayers next month on the occasion of the centenary celebration to be held there. General Leonard Wood, who is soon to become chief of staff of the army, has now been designated. Illness and his recent return from such extensive travels, influenced Mr. Fairbanks in his decision. State, elections are not to be influenced by political appointments made from the white house, if President Taft can prevent it. He showed this when he refused to decide a controversy which, will have some influence on the coming elections in West Virginia. Treasury of State of Georgia Elastica. JAN. 17, 1808. 190 The undisputed Treasurer of the State of Georgia hereby acknowledges to have received from the Secretary of State the following described Invoice: Dear Reginald R. Patterson, Elegant, Excellent Company Name 1234567890, Address of the Agent being an act Ten Thousand Dollars, and which are held by the State of Georgia, by authority and under the provisions of an Act of the General Assembly, approved October 22d, 1887, and amended December 25th, 1897. R. E. Patterson Treasurer of the State of Georgia. Experiments in Acoustics at Atlanta Attract Attention. TRANSMISSION OF SOUNDS Soft and Faintest Sounds Are Carried Great Distances ---New Discovery Will be Appreciated by Grand Opera Audiences. Atlanta, Ga.—A startling discovery and one that is certain to attract much comment throughout the entire country, has been made through experiments in acoustics at the Atlanta auditorium-armory, where the Meropolitan Opera company is to appear in grand opera during the first week in May. Through the new discovery, it will be possible for the softest, faintest sounds emanating from the stage to be heard in any part of the immense building, and the great singers will be able to make themselves clearly understood without any additional care in enunciation or added volume of voice. When the new stage, necessary to accommodate the great choruses and scenic effects of the opera, was designed, it was found necessary to extend the partitions at either corner of the stage proper on out to the side walls of the building, in order to snut on that portion of the edifice that is left unused. After experimenting with several scrafs of materials to be used in these side walls, the great stage carpenter, Peter Clarke of New York who effected the $250,000 stage of the Metropolitan opera house, and the immense Hippodrome stage, hit upon a plan for installing a double wall of tightly stretched asbestos fabric, specially treated, and stretched to an incredible tension. These walls are supported by a framework of seasoned, light timbers, until the whole resembles the gigantic sounding-board of a monster violin. The effect will be that the walls will vibrate to any sound produced upon the stage, making it possible to hear the sound of a pin dropped into a plate from the height of a few inches, the listener being stationed anywhere in the great building. This will greatly enhance the beauty of the grand operas. Caruso, the great tenor, who is coming to Atlanta with the other opera stars, has expressed intense interest in the discovery, and has written to Mr. Clarke, congratulating him upon his ingenuity. Work upon the $50,000 organ is practically completed, and the great instrument will be used in conjunction with the 'grand opera. BOLL WEEVIL CIRCULAR. Farmers Are Warned to Report the Cotton Insect. Atlanta. Ga.—State Entomologist E. SOL. C. JOHNSON, Supt. of Ageno L. Worsham, perhaps the best posted man on cotton diseases and insects in the south, is now engaged in preparing a circular which is to be distributed among the cotton growers of this state on the present status of the Texas boll weevil and when this dread insect may be expected to appear in southwest Georgia. According to Entomologist Worsham the boll weevil traveled eastward last year a distance of 125 miles. Tails is the greatest distance yet recorded for any ono year. At this rate it is expected the boll weevil will reach this state in three years more. The circular letter will tell the planters what to expect and how best to identify the dread insect in order that its presence may be reported, instantly, and promt steps taken to retard its onward march wherever possible. So far nothing has been discovered which can effectually stop the march eastward. It appears to be a case of watch and wait. TUBERCULOSIS DAY. Ministers Requested to Make Dread Disease. Subject of Sermons. Disease Subject of Sermons. Atlanta, Ga. — Tuberculosis day, which will be April 24th all over the United States promises to be of unusual interest in Georgia. Preachers here in Atlanta and over the state, regardless of creed, will preach sermons appropriate to the occasion. A number of prominent Atlanta men are urging the importance of observing the day. Dr. George Brown, a well-known tuberculosis expert, has addressed personal letters to the ministers and leading business men and others throughout the state in the interest of the day. MUCH DIVERSIFIED FARMING. Georgia Farmers are Growing Corn and Oat Crops. Thomasville, Ga.-Cotton planting in this section is nearly over, and the acreage seems very little larger than that of last year, or, in fact, or several years past, the farmers always putting about as much land in it as they can spare. With the high prices of the past season it was thought that the acreage would be much much increased, but the south Georgia farmer has found that his food crops are very profitable, and a very safe investment for his time and labor, and he no longer risks his all on cotton. The corn crop in Thomas county was an especially fine one last year, and a large acreage in it has been planted this season. Americus, Ga. — Americus supply dealers declare that the farmers of Sumter county have cut out western corn and oats this year, and are simply not buying such feedstuff as in previous seasons. The greatest corn and oat crop ever grown here in Sumter county was harvested last year. The acreage of grain crops was far greater in 1909 than any previous year, and the beneficent effect of this plan of farming is now apparent. The greatest danger confronts the grain and cotton crops this year as a result of the continued drought. Swalnsboro, Ga.—The fine weather. which has prevailed for the past six weeks or two months has enabled the farmers to put-in good time, and farm work is further advanced than at the same time for many years past. The indications are that Emanuel county will, under favorable circumstances, produce the largest crop of its history. GEORGIA NEWS NOTES. With the receipt of $9,800 in fees from fertilizer inspection which was turned in by the agricultural department the state treasury now has on hand a fund sufficient to make a payment of $1,000 to each of the eleven district agricultural schools. A "trust-buster" on a scale that promises to grow with reference to the meat and butter question has started active operations, with headquarters at Waycross. A partnership in which Judge J. T. Myers, J. B. Lewis, W. N. Jones and others are interested has been formed for the purpose of raising cattle for beef and evtra fine cows for dairy products. Five hundred acres of land a few miles from the city is under fence as a pasture. One hundred acres will be devoted to the raising of stock feed. Believing that they have made a rich discovery, C. P. Worty and A. J. Larmon of the lower Tenth district in Whitfield county, are having an analysis made of some kind of ore they have discovered in abundance on their property. The vein, which is an unusually heavy one, begins on Worthy's property and extends into the property of Larmon. They are both of the opinion that they have discovered a rich lead ore. By an agreement reached in the office of the prison commission Clarke county will turn over to Tattnall county the twenty convicts which Clarke worked last year, and which were the property of Tattnall. The convicts were worked by Clarke county last year under a contract made with Tattnall, and, when Tattnall demanded the convicts at the expiration of the year. Clarke county claimed that the contract was still in force and declined to surrender them. People coming in to Thomasville from the Duncanville road, report that in many places the woods are afire and that it is spreading. On the Florida end of the road large pines have burned through at the base and in falling have blocked the road. Many large pines have caught and are being burned and all of the young growth being killed by the heat. The fire is spreading over towards the Miccosukle road and south toward Bradfordville. Unless it is checked pretty soon, much of the timber in that section will be injured as well as the natural beauty destroyed. Governor Joseph M.

Specific tax amounting to more than $28,000—for the first quarter of 1910—has been received in the office of the comptroller general. Of this amount Bibb county sent in $10,224 Muscogee county sent in $600 near-beer tax. Counties reporting specific tax were: Troup, $1,659; Thomas, $1,890; Ware, $855; Baldwin, $749; Calhoun, $400; Cherokee, $198; Clarke, $2,350; Crisp, 481; DeKalb, $174; Douglas, $189; Emmanuel, $220; Grady, $369; Gwinnette, $612; Macon, $567; Madison, $211; Meriwether, $324; Newton, $886; Pulaski, $733; Randolph, $189; Stephens, $189; Stewart, $378; Tolbert, $229; Tift, $274; Turner, $603; Upson, $1,375; Warren, $175; Wilkes, $756; Jenkins, $364; Bulloch, $283; McDuffle, $243; Butts, $580. Without consideration of expense, the Metropolitan Opera Company will carry its entire corps de ballet on its visit to Atlanta, week of May 2d, and this charming form of entertainment will be presented as incidental to one or more of the operas that will be given in the Georgia capital The corps includes several famous premier dancers of both sexes. That near-beer inspector may be appointed within the next two or three days, according to Governor Joseph M. Brown, and then things will begin to happen if dealers are caught doing business without a license. Governor Brown said that it was probable that some action would be taken this week unless developments proved that it was unnecessary. He said he did not wish to take summary action, but that possibly if examples were made in some of the counties it would tend to have a salutary effect on others. There's a mighty little money for the state in the new tax on soft drink makers and wholesalers, according to Comptroller General W. A. Wright, who points to the tax returns thus far and calls attention to the sum total thereof—$196.05, paid by threese concerns. "Judging from this," says the comptroller, "the whole of it, when it's collected, won't make the treasury bulge." This is the new occupation tax that was enacted at the last session of the legislature on all manufacturers and wholesalers of soft drinks. The law requires a quarterly payment by every manufacturer and wholesaler, of one-fourth of 1 per cent of the gross amount of sales in this state. The senate has confirmed the nomination of F.

As an example of a well-balanced and thoroughly readable periodical, the April number of Lippincott's Magazine takes very high rank. The first offering is a strong and breezy complete novel, "Her Italian Prince," by Mrs. John Van Vorst, who wrote "Letters to Women in Love" and "Bagsby's Daughter." The Baroness Von Hutten contributes a short story, "The Portrait of a Parson," which has all the charm of "Pamm," "Beechy," and her other famous longer works. Other noteworthy short stories are "Through Hoops of Fire," by Grace MacGowan Cooke and Caroline Wood Morrison; "The Confidante," by Elizabeth Maury Coombs; "Jenkins of the pAploby Scimitar," by Will Levington Comfort, author of "Routledge Rides Alone;" "The Mob," by Eleanor Mer- cein Kelly; and "The Rise of Genevieve," by Stanley Olmstead. Some documents of extraordinary interest are also to be found in this April Lippincott's. Woman's Home Companion for April. As spring comes around again, the Woman's Home Companion lifts its own standard another degree with its Easter issue. "The Empty House," a story in two parts by Elizabeth Phelps, has its first enthralling instalment in this number. Never was the household so well taken care of: Margaret Sangster, Woods Hutchinson, M. D., Kate V. Saint-Maur, Doctor Jean Williams, all give their best work. "May-Pole Dancers," "Wood-Block Printing," "A Perfume Garden," "Happinese Chest," Miss Farmer's Recipes, Evelyn Parsons' Summer Embroideries, Music, Art—these are just some of the contents of this surprising magazine. The regular departments, Miss Gould's big Fashion Sheet and the pages devoted to the Younger Reader, are all better than ever. Some Other Bulls. T. P. O'Connor, the witty Irish parliamentarian, discussed at a dinner in New York the bull. "The bull," said he, "isn't confined to Ireland. It was an Englishman, you know—an English judge—who, being told by a tramp that he was unmarried, replied: "Well, that's a good thing for your wife." "And it was a French soldier, who sleeping in his tent with a stone jar for a pillow, replied on being asked if the jar wasn't hard: "Oh, no; I've stuffed it, you see, with hay." "And it was an American politician in New York who cried the other night from the tailboard of a dray: 'If we remain silent the people will not hear our heart-rending cries.'"—Washington Star.

Winter Sports. | ‘After the real winter has come to Stay for three months or more, then had come. the time for the riost en- jJoyable .and wholesome sports of the year, There 1s no pastime more en- ‘Joyable than coasting, unless it be skating. *Dressef for the sport, the children learn what real pleasure con- sists of when on skates or coasting sled. But elther must be indulged in with caution. The coasting hill must be carefully selected and the course for Ahe sleds well prepared. It is well to ‘bank the coasting course with a firm “wall of packed snow, Have the course @s wide as possible, so that three or itour sleds may pass down at the same ime. But. be cautious about allowing green hands on the course guiding Steds, for 90 often very dangerous ac- eidents happen through greenness or xarelesmaess. Therefore, one 46 20 be SBuared against as much as the ofm- or. A carnival on the ice is pretty SNe interesting. Sometimes boys and girls form themselves into 3 skating club and give during the winter a series of skating carnivals. It io a pretty idea to have each carnival chsracteristis of<some historical event or period. One time the writer saw a colonial carnival on the ice, “and It was most ‘artistic. Hach boy was dressed as ‘nis colonial forefathers dressed, -and ‘each girl like her colonial grandmoth~ ers. It Is aleo a pretty Idea to follow out ‘the unique in costume—for in- stance, the boys of the club might adort the costumes of clowns, while the girls might go as Scotch lassies. Some like the mixed carnival best— where the boys and girls represent a variety of celebrated characters and celebrated people. George Washing- ton, Napoleon Bonaparte and other great leaders or rulers are often rep- resented. And large, fat twins—cos- tumed lke two-year-cld ‘bables—al- ways furnfsh much amusement, The “Three Little Maids From School” make another pretty group of skaters. In preparing one's costume the weather must be considered, and the garments worn under the snow cos- tume should be warm end ‘heavy. Fancy costumes are always made of cheap and tilmsy material, and, un- legs one is well wrapped underneath, the costumed one is able to catch a heavy cold and all pleasure will be spolled by bad: results. Health first, pleasure eecond and art third, is a good rule for boys and girls to follow when arranging Out-of-door sports in winter.—Washington Star. Sketch of Rubinstein. ‘When the young students 0b Usten to the wonderful compositions of Anton Grigerijevitch Rubinstein they think of him as a genius, a gcd, who did not walk the earth as we do, who breathed diferent air, whdse dlet —if he ate at all—was something too dainty for the common mortal to subsist on, But Rubinstein was like other boys in many respects, lke them in his early boyhood days; but only then, for at the age’of ten he was appearing before the public as an artist, and zo longer was he a child outwardly, though we may sur- mise that the Httle Anton would ra- ther have played ball or some other folly games with his comrades than to -have sat the hours of the day through at the pianoforte, for a child’s genius and his human side aro frequently total strangers. Anton Rubinstein was of Jewish pa- rentage, and was born at Wichwat!- netz, near Dubossary, in Russia. At an early age the little Anton went ‘with bis parents to Moscow. Although his mother was a very clever pian- ist, the Httle Anton displayed such unusual talent for music that she de- cided her teaching would not be as thorough as be should ‘have, so at Moscow}—while yet of very tender years—Anton was placed with the fin- est master of the pianoforte that the ambitious parents coutd tind. Soon after bis first appearance in public Anton Rubinstein went to Par- fs, where he remained fog‘nearly two years. From there he made a conti- nental tour of Europe, playing In all the principal cities, and making pro- nounced success. After three years spent in concert work, Anton re- turned to Russia, taking up his abode in St. Petersburg. There he opened a studio for the teaching of pupils, At intervals he apreared at the imperial | palace, playing for royalty. It was in 1862 that Rubinstein! es- tablished a conservatory of music, and began making regular concert tours throughout Europe. While at the very height of his art he vistted the United States of America, win- ning laurels wherever he appeared. Rubinstein composed many sym- phonies, overtures, operas and sona+ tas, all of the rarest beauty and high- eet grade oT merit. Once when some friend was advising him to write miu- sic to be “better understood by the common people,” his reply was: “Let us not minister to the cravings of the ignorant for foolish amusement. What satisfaction can there be for a mujik to pay 15 Kopeks to seo on the stage the same drunkard in sheepskin whom he meets each day in the pot- house? If the theater fs to be a me- dium of education, let it be above the people. It may be at frst the lower classes will find eueh places dull and uninteFesting; tut, believe me, tt Will hot be very long before they will have learned to appreciate their beau- Me, and will seek the theater, now become an instrument of clvilization for the masses.” And in that Uttle paragraph just quoted Was expressed the character af the artist, Anton Rubinstein. Dur- ng his more than busy life he worked for the highest that he might attain, never once allowing himself to drop © tho fevel of the masses. Not only iid ho carry himself upward and on- ard in his art, but he helped to lift hose around him, for he placed mu- de on a standard so high that to un- lerstahd It one was obliged to ascend o the mountaintop.

IN ANICKLES * 2. You Can Then Use the Typewtlter fr Half An-Houk « Bene EN Sey The nickelfn-the-slot typewriter 1 numbered among, -“the latest.” You have ‘never used one and, the chances are have: never heard of them before, Just the same they exist, and are soon to be installed throughout the world in the leading hotels, on ocean 1in- ers, trains, etc, . ‘The typewriter works along the same pringiples as the nickel-in-the-slot piano. For the ‘small sum of 5 cents, Jadies and gentlemen,” the plano dashes off 2 prescribed amount of mu- sic. The typewriter with its slot at- tachment unlocks when the nickel has been placed in the waiting mouth, and for half an hour permits one to use it in the way all typewriters are aed. . At the end of this time, however, It locks 4tself up again, and one’s unfin- ished 1étier ‘will -never be finished on it unless anather, nicke} is used, and then, as half hourgs.tome around, another and still another. F ‘These typewriters are put up on slender rollingtables. When the guest at the hotel notifies tne clerk that he has letters to write and wants a type- writer, a page is dispatched with one of the nickel-in-the-slot machines. If the guest is ignorant of the manner in which it works’ and fails to ask for an explanation, the chances are that after he has fussed and banged useless- ly at it fer some time thére will be something doing over the telephone wires that lead to the office. The laconic voice of the clerk say- ing, “Just put a nickel in the slot and you'll be all right,” is apt to elicit a reply that is anything but compliment- ary, rounded up by the question: “Why in blazes didn’t you tell me that long ago?” But all this will happen only while the typewriter is @ novelty. There is no doubt that in time it will become as imuch of an accepted fact as the nickel-in-the-slot telephone, the right of which to gobble up nickels is never questioned or mistaken, even by the most UMnitlated of clty visitors. “One of the reasons for the installa- tlon of these typewriters,” said 2 well- known hotel man the other day, “is that there are so few people who really know how to use a machine. Those who are used to typewriting and real- ly want them for service are willing to pay a nickel. The nickel demand, on the other hands, prevents them from being called for by thoso who. merely wish to experiment or fool with the typewriters."—St, Louis Times, MARYLAND'S OYSTERS. Ce ee eae ee Contamination. Maryland is one of the chief sources for oysters in the country, and It has especial interest tn all that relates to the industry, The decision renaered in a euit fn England, in which the plaintiff eet up the contention that he had been made sick by eating can- taminated oysters in a certain eat- dng house is, therefore, of local inter- est. In that case the oysters from one source. of supply had to be banned by the health authoritles, and ft was Proved that these typhold-jafected oysters had been served by the cater- er against the law. Damages were awarded upon the ground thatthe de- fendant had not.erercised prorer caro to provide sound oysters for his guests, The oysters of the Chesapsake and its tributaries dre shipped to all parts of the ‘world, and careful examination has failed to disclose signs of ifec- tion. This, of course, is due to the tact that the Chesapeske 1s not con- faminated. There aro few manufac- tories along its shores or those of its tributaries and, therefore, the oyster bars are absolutely free from typhold infection. ‘The Maryland oyster in- dustry is now operated under en ai- most ideal lew and the market for the Maryland bivalve knows that the oysters dredged in these waters are above reproach. Therefore, a suit to establish lability from this cause fs not lkely ever to come up. As to canned aysters, the provisions of the pure-foad Jaw offer the same protec- tion that {s thrown about other canned products Tho Maryland cin- neries have hever been brought Into atsrepute by eny of the measures that have brought discredit upon some canneries elsewhere. Baltimore is building a great sew- age disposal plant for the express. purpose of discharging the lquefied sewage material into the Patapsoo ‘ab- solutely pure.

Boone was passing through from a trip’out West, and bad with him only his hatchet, hunting knife aid rife, and was /with- owt: dogs or conipanions. He had on only @ coonskin cap, buckskin hunting shirt down to his knees, high-Jaced cowskin moccasins and no pants or Underclothes, His rifie was as tall as Boone himself, and very heavy, with a long, thin, white Mickory ramrod. ‘This old man nad been a hunter all his Iife, and safd the rifle was the blg- Best and heaviest he had ever seen. » Killing Without Hitting. ‘The great thing was to see Boone shoot. Boone, without taking a rest, hit a spot every time as big as a man’s hat at two hundred yards, aiming very slowly and deliberately, for that was long before the days of cartridges and quick snap snooting. Boone at forty or fifty yards “barked” two squirrels, then an un- heard of marvel, though common enough now: He hit the bark of the tree right under where the squirrel was altting crouching, and when the rifle sald “pop,” Mr, Squirrel was blown up into the air five or alx feet, and picked up stone dead without so much a3 a scratch on him. Killing a tough old fox squirrel without a bul- let touching him or drawing a drop of blood looked Ike big magic.or witch craft to early settlers and Indlans. Washington's False Teeth. From what Tip’s old gentleman had ‘neara veteran soldiers say who had ‘seen, General Washington, Boone “must have looted and been very much lke Washington, hiving the same quiet, august and austere manner. He hhad a clear, eloquent volce, and per- fect teeth, but General Washington's were false, almost from middle life on (calomel.) Boone's rifle was the same small bore that he had always car- red, and wag the true father of the modern small bore Mauser. .Its ball was a ttle larger than a buckshort, and buckshot Js smaller around than a lead pencil. His rifle had only two “rifles” In the bore. . Small Bere for Accuracy. ~ It seemed infernally stupid of the American Army that with all its Kmowledze of the deadly and long range certainly of the Kentucky type of rifle—as shown at the battle of New Orleans—the Army so long used ble blunder bore, blinderbuss rubbish. For Instance, 2 ‘Tennessee negro. sharpshooter with a Kentucky rifle deliberately shot General Packenham through the heart or head—Tip for- gets which—at two hundred yards, and it Is sald Mr. Negro was picked out to do this very fob. Now, the “army guns,” big smooth bores, which many British and Americans used, ‘Would be lucky to hit a flock of bzrng at two hundred yards. ‘Boys "After Deer, ‘When the small bore struck It was sure death, for the inside bleeding Would choke up and stop all organs from working, even though a vital Spot, had not been touched. On the other hand, the wound from a big bullet would bleed outside, relleve choking and strangulation of internal organs and wash out the wounds, make ing a kind of outside drainage. Byen a boy those, days in the Middle West knew about this, and with small bore squirrel and turkey rifles he would carefully afm to shbot a deer in the bolly ‘instead of the harder place to hit, head or heart, and then quictly follow Mr. Stricken Deer, who went not far, but quietly lay down to die.

Boone’s Loading. es Boone drove a nail or two, and showed how he Jdaded his gun, He had a small powder horn filled with finest grain pawder about as hard and clean from emut as the best modern; a little hollow powder measure mado of elderwood, such as boys make whistles of. And he showed how. he gauged his powder by laying the rifle ‘Tender With Children. Boone's manner with Httle children Was noticeably tender and gentle.

Boone's: rise stock was the shortest and most angularly curved of any in the village. And this same Daniel’ Boone stock, seen for the tirst time by the old gentleman, has now beon adopted as a world model by all arm- fes and manufactories. A's 2 matter of Tact, some of the first Yankee wholo- sale manufacturers deliberately cop.

This art had been got up in Switzerland some forty years before, and Napo- ison had Tyrol sharpstiooters who ‘used short “rifled” carbines. Jefferson's Heavy Weapon. | ‘Thonias Jefferson showed Napoleon a Kentucky rife, so Tip has heard, maybe sent a hunter who showed its astonishing firing, but nobody there except Mr. Jefferson was strong enough to use it without taking aim off a rest, Napoloon evidently thought Mr., Jefferson was putting up a bluff, for he sald St was impossible for men to be strong enough to carry and use such guns in war. Mr. Jefferson then told thet there'were thousands of white savage men all along the Mis- stssippl river who could use ft much better than he. Jefferson's !dea was to discourage Napoleon's ambition tow- ard the land afterward ‘our great Loulstana Purchase, An Art of the Young West. Dr. Green was of opinion that the art of “rifling” guns came to Ken- tueky through the Pennsylvania Pala- tinate Germans. At any rate it was considered the most precious art of the young Western settlements, 60 precious that sixty years ago many village, even farm, boys had the, tools and’ could beautifully “rifle” a duel- ing pistol or a rifle, and then knew how to use both, afoot or in caddie. And yet people are amazed and indig- nant if one says these Western cane- brake country Jakes of the Davy Crockett tyre were as bright as Boys of today. But think up; Davy Crocket, when 18 years old, nearly a century ago, could tell such experts as Lord Roberts and General Wood a whole lot about the sublime art of man- killing that they ought to know. It the Union and Franco-Prussian arm-_ fes could havo used Boone's small bore principles they could have set- | tled things:In half the time, with half | the slaughter, if Boone had been there to tell thém how. Alming to the Last. People’ who think a man Ike Boone was a more husky boor are badly mistaken in ‘thelr last year's bacon. Daniel Boone fs sizable with such men ax Lincoln and General George Rogers Clark, and one thing sure, no- body down that way today could touch hish with a ten-foot pole. Such men are made by nature and as yet no art is to make them. Tip sincerely prays that eugenics may yet discover how. Boone was a hunter from the knobs and killed game,until he was so cld he had to paste paper on the end of his rifle barrel for a sight. Boone was found dead kneeling under a bush with his rifle resting on a branch. Probably he died of the heart disease, of old age or rheumatism, MONKS’ PASSION PLAY. Fathers. . ._ San Francisco is to have a passloi ‘play of the Oberammergau verlety— ‘one that requires twelve hours for its presentation, It was written by Father Josephat of the local Francls- can fathors, whe has worked for threo years at the task, and, the incidental music has been composed by Fath- er Huceges of Red Bluff. While it is identical with the Ober ammergau play so far as the main theme {s concerned it is entirely orig- inal in text, The cast has been se- leoted, rehearsals are In progress and the play will be produced in the audi- torlum of the Dominican church in October. There will be several hun- dred people in the company. The principals have beon most carefully selected, not only their historic abil- ity being taken into cons{deration but thelr moral fitness to-depict the Sav- for and his followers, so that the play may be presented with the reverential epirit in which it was written. Four nights with three hours at each per- formance will be required to’ produce the piece in {ts ontirety.” Father Josephat has been consid- ering an outdoor production of the play and will probably arrange for one if the eucceas he, looks for ia achteyed. There was. some thought of. staging it at Del Monte for the Initial production, but the idea was given up, However, the Greek theatre at Berkeley may be used next yéar— or even this year.

Torday described to the Royal Anthropological Society recently the results of a recent ethnological expedition to the Congo Free State. After dealing with the racial divisions he explained the institutions, govern- ment“and religion of the people of the Congo State. or ‘The head of the tribe was the chief, but in certain questions his mother seemed tb take precedence of him:. His power was nominally absolute, ‘but in reality very: slight. There ‘were six great officers and a host of smaller officials.

Carter, president, was dedicated on Wednesday. President Carter is doing effective work. Tue'students atthe Technolog: ical Institute of Atlanta created a riot there during the week in at- tempting to release two students who were arrested by the police. The matter is being minimized. Had the boys’ face been of darker hue, there would of been a mighty how! all over the South. Ir seems to be the policy of some to eliminate the Negro so far as holding Presidential posi- tions in Georgia, is concerned. Many of the old line party men are inclined to thebelief that the lily white -idea is being vigorously pushed for this State. We will ‘wait and see. Ir is estimated that less than six thousand colored voters are on the registered list in this entire State. In afew more weeks the registration books will be again open forthe Congressional elec- tion in November. At that time it is hoped that the tax payers in every county will rally and add their names to the list. Let the leaders be on the alert. “Ir is not generally known, es- pecially ‘in this section, that Mr. Rucker ‘has been removed from the Collectorship of Internal Re- venue. From the New York In- dependent, one of the staunchest publications in the country, and ever true to the Negro, as against the wrongs imposed upon him, the following is clipped: “We fail to see the reason why Mr. H. A. Rucker has been removed from the office of Collector of Internal Here- nuein Atlanta, a position held for thir- teen years, and to the compléte satis- faction of the Treasury. A white mau yho did not apply for it has been put in his place. Now every Negro who held a Presidential office ‘in Georgia has been replaced by a white man. We seriously question the policy and its defense. ‘There, is no reason why fegroes who represent #0 large a por: Hoe of the population should mot. ‘be re presented in office.” At this writing no successor has been named for Mr.Rucker’s place. Honor to Recorder Schwarz. Since the days of Recorder Wil- son, no fairer judge has graced the Recorder’s Court than Record- er Schwarz. On several occasions we have seen fit to commend him, and this commendation is shared by all of our people. The record- er has especially endeared himself to us by his timely action during the week, when he very justly dis- charged the colored driver whose automobile ran over the foot of a white lady. It develop- ed that he was not to be blamed for the accident. At the time the recorder placed a heavy fine against the ~vhite man who struck the chanffeur while under arrest, and who very nearly incited a riot. The recorder did not stop there, but severely reprimanded the policeman who allowed the white man to assault the chauffeur while under arrest. The chief of police took the matter up and fined the officer for the offence and also reported him to the mayor. These are unusual occurrences. and de- serving of special note. Summer School for Teach- ers at Tuskegee Institute iniluenced by the desire to be of service to the teachers throughout the country, and by earnest re- quests coming from almost every state in which’ there are colored teachers. The Tuskegee Institute hes decided to run‘a Summer school for teachers during the coming summer for four weeks; beginning June 20th and closing July 15th. The course which will be sent outlater, we understand; embraces the various litesary branches, to- gether with a number of industrial courses suitable for the prepara- tion of teachers along the various industrial lines now being taught in the public and high schools of: the country. Along with the teach- ing in literary branches, special at- tention will be:given to methiods in these subjects. The same is to obtain with reference to the in- dustrial subjects, in addition to the 3h ee a Sty teaching“of- tho subjects themselvés special stress will be put on -the methods.of introducing these sub- jects in the public schools and corelating them with the leterary work, Beside the regular coysse of stu- dy there will be special lecturés on extension and demonstration work the school garden, schoolfarm and community work thru mothers meetings, parents’ conferences, etc. For first hand information along these lines, several excursions will be made to the country districts for the purpose of observing mod- el country school houses, school gardens, school farms, etc. The course in detail will be issued with in a very few days.

Leo, Direc- tor of the Academic Department, any who is directing the Summer schools, Two Incidemts and Their Contrasts. On the evening of \Friday, the first inst., two white men speeding recklessly in‘an automobile on the White Bluff road ran down three colored people, a man, his wife and their little daughter, who in the twilight of their days were un- doubtedly a joy to thém. In spite of the fact that the catastrophe oc- curred ata point thickly settled by colored people, and the heart- rending scene was enough to in- flame the breast of any human being irrespective of race or color, there was not the slightest semb- lance of disorder or lawlessness on the part of the colored people at- tracted to the scene. The writer saw one of the men in the patrol wagon: he sat content, for being in the custody of the oflicers of the law he knew that no vidlent hands would belaid upon him. ‘To-day, the Washingtons, husband and wife lie beneath the burial sod, having met an untimely death— hurried into the presence of their Maker without warning and with- out preparation. ‘Their little ‘daughter is left an orphan, who will care for her should sho-sur- vive her injuries? Who will take her and shower affection upon her and rear her properly? And yet in spite of this sad and harrowing scene the colored people be it said to their credit,- have heen neither seditious nor lawless. THE,OTHER INCIDENT AND ITS SEQUENCE. ‘On Saturday evenins: Inst a.Ne- gro chauffeur while driving bis employer's car, and at the same time carrying out to the letter the new traffic regulations ordered by the city, through no fault of his, knocked down two white women. As soon as he became aware of the accident he stopped to render what assistance he could ry afterwards started off. Notwithstanding com- petent witnesses*among the white people testified that he was not at fault he was placed under arrest by a police officer: in the mean- while acowardly white man who was instrumental in stopping the car took advantage of the situation by brutally assaulting the frighten- ed and dejected fellow several times. Oneof the prominent city papers declared that at this juno- ture the crowd that had gathered not knowing the situation was ready to resort to that lawless method which every righteous cit- izendesplores. It isa question who was the more cowardly, the white man who assaulted the prisoner while in custody of an officer sworn to uphold the law, or the officer himself. When we recall the two scenes, and the fact that colored people accused of crime usually get more than their share of justice (1) it is evident that the brutal and cowardly assault was out of place, and it is just that sort of lawlassness and Inck of moral courage among:a certain ele- ment which is at the bottom of so much of the trouble which now and then obtains between the two |races, In the faee of such brutal incidents the slightest remon- strance causes some of our white friends to declare that we are “sen- sitive,” ete. As some who read this article might doubt its truth- fulness, the writer beg: to refer them to the columns of the Savan- nah Morning News and the Savan- nah Press—afternoon. But thanks be to God, our fair Forest City boasts of a righteous judge ‘in the person of Reeerder Schwarz who administers the law without, fear or fayor—he is a veritable ““Dan- iel come to judgment”—for he has had the moral courage not only to fine and turn over to a higher court the parti¢ipants in the first tragedy, but he fined_the gentle- man (¥) who assaulted chauffeur twenty-five dollars, the policeman who permitted the assault five dol- lars and turned him over to the mayor; to be reprimanded.

How do you come here, by the way?” 7 “Oh—I'm often here. I've always stayed here—a good deal. - And you?” “Oh—I," Idughed Delphine. “Why I am here for a purpose. Would you Uke to know about ft?

He rose and adjusted a por- tlere in an evident solicitude lest they ‘be discovered. When he came back ‘his face was grave. He sat down again and leaned toward Delphine. “About the son?” “About four years ago Mr. Merry- mount’s son ran through a great deal of money and his father quarrelled with him. I’ve heard that he gamed and raced horses and that sort ot thing.” “Um-m,”" the man agreed, non- committaily, “But it seems that Mrs. Merrymount had always Joveg her "boy through everything, and has pleaded and plead- ed with his father untti she had made a kind of peace between them.” “Bless her heart,” murmured the man, é “Did you speak,” inquired Delphine. “I only sald that she deserved a bat- ter son. But-what has this to do with you?" “I'm coming to that. Now when the peace was accomplished, Mr. Merry- mount only agreed to it on condition his son behaved himself and did not run In debt again. But as he oniy made him a very small allowance— Did you speak?” Delphine broke off to say again owing to the fact that there had ‘been an indistinct mutter trom the other side of the table, “I said I hoped he wouldn't have the face to take it. I wouldn't.” , “But you,” remarked Delphine saga ciously, “are not Mr. Rudolph Merry- mount.

Significance to Londoner of Headgear and Neckwear," | ‘When some years ago. one of the doorkeepers at a’ London theatre re- tired from his draughty calling snd ‘was pensioned off by the management it appeared that this old man in all the years of his service had never given a “pass out” check to any one of the ‘thousands of men who must dave passed bis doorway: But he, never made a mistake. No ono entitled to return was ever re- fused and no one could pass In at the end of the interval who had not passed out at the beginning cr it. ~ | The secret of the old man’s success ‘was a curious one. He depended on his memory in a very curfous way. He did not remember the men’ by thelr faces, thelr clothes, their hats, their boots, or by any pecullarity of gait or appearance. Bianifestly such a feat would have: been impossible, for ordinary “pitties” ere very much alike in these details. He took, the one detail cn which men do differ and remembered them by that—he recognized ‘hem by their neckties.

Archbishop Ireland is quoted to this effect: “Americans do not know how to save in cooking, and what they do cook they don't know how to prepare in a manner to make it palatable and health-giving.” Learn to cook and the benefit will remain long after the era of high prices has passed. Food should be sa prepared that it will, appeal to tha palate. It should be selectad for its nourishing qualitfos, but not for nour: ishment alone. It should be served to please. Cooking 1s an art; it is a science; it 1s an inspiration; it f a moral obligation. When the wife {s able properly to prepare the food the husband's wages can pay for, the at- tractions of the corner saloon and the fashionable restaurant will decline, and most of the domestic diftticultfes will disappear. Bad cooking may not justify divorce, but ft does much to provoke it—Louisville Post. History of a Hat. It would be a difficult task to con- vince any man that there is anything about @ woman's hat more remark- able than the price, and perhaps there 1s not; but very few persons, even tho wearers themselves, have any, idea of the history of the very latest style of headgear. One might say without much exaggeratiog that all the world contributes to the mak- “ing of the decorating of thase crea- tlons which startle and impoverish the male sex. The straw may come from the Puiippines, China, Japan, Italy or Switzerland. The flowers may be na- ttres of Germany, Switzerland or France and the metal ornaments, jet and silk “things” which serve to in- creage both the beauty and the cost probably originated in Germany or France. Finally they were assembled and ‘arranged into a delightful whole here in America. “That is not all the “world, of course, but it fs a consider- able part.of it. Certainly few women, as they saunter down State street, Know that on their heads rest the products of euch far epart lands' as China and Switzerland. Very few women know that the flowers—more wonderful than any Mother Nature ever, dared to create—blooming upon their hats bloomed first in some ilttle cottege’in some-remote German town, or that the toflers of Japan wove the straw that is the foundation of thelr modern “crowning glary’—the hat. ‘They probably do not know that Chi cago is the greatest womsn's hat mar- ket In the world.

THE EAGLE’S FASCINATION, Men Have Always Taken Him as a Symbol of Power. However much the eagle may be in awe of man, there seems to have been no age in which man has not accepted the “playmate of the storm” as the symbol of kingship or power. Its sov- erelgnty among the birds— Salling with supreme dominion ‘Through the azure deeps or air— is more indisputable than that of the Uon among beasts; and nation after nation—Assyria, Persia, Rome, France, Germany, Russia, Austria, Italy, Po- land and the United States—has used it either as the royal crest or as its military standard. No great man but thas been an eagle to his eulogists, and, gleaning from the poets at random, we find Napoleon, Pindar, Otto, Madoc, Duguesclin, Lochial, Wolsey, Prince Hubert, the Duke of York, Bacon, Her- minius, Corlolanus and many another equipped with eagle qualities. ‘The proud lft of the hair from the brow of the capitoline Jove is said to have been studied from the forehead of a Hon. Certainly more than one sculptor of the head of a Roman emperor, and more than one painter of imaginary portraits of Napoleon, have borrowed from the cugle the straight line of the eyebrow, just cutting the full, round, uplidded eye, which gives the bird even in captivity its wild majesty of ap- pearance. Every emotion, every attri- bute of tragic circumstance of Ife raised ot its highest power is compared in verse or by the essayists to the royal bird; so fame, ambition, science, reason, danger, pride, hatred are “ea- gleeyed” or “eagle-taloned.” No mountain is so high as those which are “eagle-bailling.{ Even the skies are “eagle skies.” Greatness itself becomes “eagle greatness,” success is “eagle-gripped” and the true victory has eagle's wings. What dignity, then, is lacking to the bird which “builds among the stars,” which soars “swim- ming in the eye of noon” and fronts the sun Itself on equal terms?—Lon- don Times. » % ee Showing His Diamonde. August Belmont, at a luncheon on his yacht Scout, condemned the vul- sarity of diamonds in the male shirt bosom or cravat. “Pearls,” .sald Mr. Belmont, “are quite correct, but diamonds are vul- gar beyond words.

He drew as much attention as possible to the two gems during the reception and supper, Still he wasn't absolutely sure that they were being as thoroughly admired as he could wish.” “The man was called on to toast the bride and groom, and In the course of his speech a happy thought came to him, and We concluded with these ‘words: “ ‘And so, dear friends, we may be confident that a splendid future lies before the young and bappy couple.

Wright in the New York Globe DEATH OF JUSTICE BREWER MAY ALTER RESULT OF BIG TRUST LAWSUITS Whether Standard Oil, Tobacco and Corporation Tax Cases Must Be Reargued For Benefit of New Member Depends Upon Existing Status Before Supreme Court--Decisions May Be Delayed Until Fall. Washington, D. C.—Three important causes now awaiting determination by the United States Supreme Court may be entirely changed in their progress and final results in consequence of Justice Brewer's sudden death. These are the Standard Oll, Tobacco and corporation tax cases. This litigation may be affected by Justice Brewer's demise in two ways: 1. A rehearing of oral arguments may be required in one or all of the cases. 2. Delay in reaching a final decision may follow because of the part taken by the late Justice in moulding the conclusions arrived at by the Court—if that stage was passed. Under no circumstances will if be necessary to institute new proceedings or bring any of the cases now pending through all the processes of the lower courts. The Department of Justice will be in no way affected by the present situation. It is one with which the Supreme Court alone can deal. The surviving members must determine for themselves whether a rehearing of arguments is necessary in one or more of the cases. Such conclusions will depend entirely on the status of the various suits. It is the supposedly invariable custom of the Supreme Court to assemble on the Saturday following the termination of verbal arguments in any specified case. A vote is then taken and some justice is designated to formulate the final opinion of the court. This procedure is believed to have been followed in the Standard Oil, tobacco and corporation tax cases, more than one Saturday having elapsed since the final argument in the cause last heard. If the court divided evenly in the Standard Oil case, Justice Brewer voting against sustaining the Government's contention, a rehearing would not be required, as the Government would win with a divided court; if Justice Brewer voted in favor of the Government, a rehearing would be essential. If the vote stood 5 to 3, either for the Government or the Standard Oil Company, there would be no necessity for a rehearing unless Justice Brewer's vote was such as to remove the Government's possible chance of getting the decision by a divided court. The tobacco cases are different in many respects from that of the Standard Oil. The decision of the lower court was mixed, and both the Government and the Tobacco Trust took appeals. It is not considered probable that Justice Brewer's vote could have been such as to render essential a rehearing of arguments in these cases. The same is true of the corporation tax cases. The Government would not win by a divided court and there seems to be no chance by which the vote of Justice Brewer could affect the result in such a way as to make a rehearing necessary. In some quarters it is not believed that the court took a vote on the Saturday following the Standard Oil and corporation tax cases, and that the matter of decision is still open. Attorney - General Wickersham said: "I see but one possibility of Justice Brewer's death causing a rehearing in the Standard Oil and Tobacco Trust cases. The matter would lie entirely at the discretion of the court. If the court stood four to four on a proposition, it is probable that a rehearing would be ordered rather than allow the death of a member to decide the case. The court might consider that justice to the country and to the litigants would be served better by awaiting the appointment of a successor and holding a rehearing for his benefit. That is the only possibility of the cases being reopened." Associate Justice Moody Boston.—The physician to Associate Justice William H. Moody, of the United States Supreme Court, said: "It is our expectation that Justice Moody will be well enough to be back at this work next fall. Dr. Reginald H. Fitts saw him about three weeks ago and he told the Justice that he would be able to return to Washington in the fall. Dr. Fitts is entirely optimistic as to the ultimate recovery of Justice Moody to stay in Washington." A peculiar situation exists in regard to the Standard Oil case. The suit was instituted under Justice Moody's direction during his service as Attorney-General. Should the Court wait for the President to appoint another Justice, even then only eight members of the court could act on the case by reason of this elimination of Justice Moody. Four would then constitute a majority for the Government, as it would now for both the Government and for the Standard Oil if decided by a bench of seven; due to the death of Justice Brewer. Those most familiar with opinions heretofore rendered by the Supreme Court predict that Justices Harlan, Day, McKenna and Lurton will hold for the Government in the Standard Oil and Tobacco cases. Chief Justice Fuller and Justice White are regarded as likely to be adverse. The attitude of Justice Holmes is one which causes much conjecture. As the most conservative member of the Supreme Bench it is believed Justice Brewer would have aligned himself with those antagonistic to the Government's contention in those cases. It is regarded that the cause of Government prosecutions against corporations has been materially strengthened by the death of Justice Brewer. As Justice Brewer advanced in years he became more conservative. In matters that appertained to the extension of the regulatory power of the Government, in matters that related to the broadening of the Federal authority, the tendency of Justice Brewer was to be highly conservative. This was especially true of his later decisions. The views entertained by Justice Brewer regarding great aggregations of capital, as indicated by various public utterances, were in part: "The evils have been in the rebates, the granting of special privileges that gave unfair advantages in competition and in the manipulations of stocks and bonds by those in control. "When private capital is used to perform public service, it should be made subject to the same publicity." Washington, D. C.-Justice Brewer. He was numbered for many notable utterances. "We stand like a mythological Hercules, the giant of the nations, and if we do not have his club, we have the 'big stick' of the Theodore Roosevelt," he said in a sneech delivered at Baltimore in 1908. In the same speech he said: "We are manifesting a fondness for military and naval prowess. "We want the biggest yachts, the "We want the biggest yachts, the most expensive and gilftest trains. "Our growth is developing a habit of extravagance. We have been most unwisely discounting the future. Debt-paying has become almost a forgotten duty. "Do I err when I say that size is one of the oblivious facts in our material life? Is it strange that at every county fair we look for the largest steer, the fattest hog, the biggest potato and the longest ear of corn? Is it any wonder we pay prizes for the family with the most children, point with pride to the mother with twins and triplets and, then, for fear we shall not grow fast enough, welcome each year to our shores 1,000,000 immigrants? On all sides is a vision of greatness. Magnitude impresses us in every direction." Mr. Brewer at Atlantic City said: "I believe that an all-wise Providence had a hand in the rise of this great country to a world power that is able to dictate peace instead of war throughout the world. America is in a position to promote the brotherhood of man, and the most powerful influences of public opinion are tending in that direction." King Frederick of Denmark Calls United States Model Nation United States Model Nation. Copenhagen.—King Frederick declared that the United States was the model for all nations. This expression was made to American Minister Egan, who having recently returned to the Danish capital was received in audience. Mr. Egan brought a personal message to the King from President Tatt. During a conversation, of nearly an hour the Danish monarch exhibited an intelligent acquaintance with and deep sympathy in American affairs.

An appeal has been sent to each lodge and Eastern Star Chapter asking for donations for the repairing of the recent damage done the Widows' and Orphan Home building. These institutions should readily and liberally respond in order that we may readily replace this useful institution. The contract has already been given out, and it is expected that the work will be finished in time for the Grand Lodge session. In less than two weeks it is expected that every lodge in the jurisdiction will be sending to the Grand Secretary their annual report and fees. This report must be in the hands of the Grand Secretary not later than May 1st. Each lodge must obey this law in order that the Grand Secretary will have sufficient time before the Grand Lodge in order to present a proper statistical report. Last Sunday a large gathering of the brethren was held in Atlanta, where Grand Master Butler gave them a heart to hear talk on their Masonic duty, etc. The talk was enjoyed by the brethren and the result, will be effective for good. It is expected that the Grand Master will visit Savannah in May. We are desirous of him giving a similar talk to the brethren here. Tails is the time that we want every Mason to do his fully duty in a loyal manner. There would be no more scandal in the world if every person in it were equipped with a sort of ear trumpet that would enable him to hear every word that is said about him in his absence. Your scandal monger propagates his slanders behind the back of his victim, and only too often "on the square."—Masonic Standard. The Preparation Room. It is said that first impressions are the most vivid and lasting. From whom does the candidate receive his first impressions when he presents himself at the outer door of a lodge? Who approaches him from within the tiled precincts of that mysterious body into which he is shortly to be introduced? Who propounds to him certain questions, which must be answered in a satisfactory manner ere his initiation be proceeded with? And with whom does he retire to the seclusion of the preparation room, to endure that which there takes place. The brothers to whom these offices are entrusted should be the picked men, the flower of the lodge, men of delicacy and refinement, dignified, gracious and tactful. Their manner should be such as will impress the candidate with the dignity and propriety of the process of preparation and the ceremony about to be undergone. 'The candidate should be given plainly to understand that nothing will be required of him but that which is eminently proper; and that Masonry is serious and dignified. A great measure of confidence may be inspired in the candidate at this point, his brain at such a time being extremely active and highly receptive, and his observation most acute. A careless, thoughtless or flippant expression falling from the lips of his companions at this juncture will sometimes create a prejudice in the mind of the novitiate which subsequent years of faithful service in the quarries will not efface. No careless or flippant person should ever be permitted to prepare a candidate. Masters, look well to the preparation room! — Trestle Board. Her Little Error: "Wearie," said Mrs. Newlywed. "I've kept our household accounts all right this year, but there's one item that puzzles me. I've set down $19.10, and I can't make out whether we owe it or whether it's something you gave me for something." "Let's see," answered Mr. N., "Why, dearest, that's all right.

THE NATIONAL GAME. The Chicago Club has turned pitcher Holm back to the Seattle Club, of the Northwestern League. The veteran George Van Haltron isumpiring the White Sox practice games on the Pacific Coast. Jack Ryan had his Jersey Citys training over in Jersey City, and he got as good weather as teams in the South. "Now that we are going to get Kling back I think the Cubs are a cinch for the pennant," says Cap Chance. It is rumored that Fred Tenney, the Giants' veteran first baseman, will soon retire from the game to become a baseball reporter. Pitcher Summers has changed his diet. He will hereafter eschew meat and endeavor to do his pitching on vegetable food, eggs and fish. Manager McGraw, of the New York National Baseball Club, has traded Herzog and Collins, fielders, to Boston for Becker, the Hub's heavy hitting fielder. With Kling and Archer alternating behind the bat for the Cubs opposing managers do not foresee any wild stampede of their base runners in the stealing line. Dobe Gessler is one of the most thoroughly left-handed men in baseball. His right arm is as diseless to him as the left is to most persons who have never gone in for athletics.

The Long Hat Pin. Some of the women who wear profecting hat pins doubtless still consider the agitation against them a joke. Albert Putman, a street railway conductor in Springfield, Mass., doesn't think it a joke. While he was collecting fares one day last week a woman passenger turned her head quickly and drove the point of her eighteen-inch pin clean through his ear. One woman at least in Chicago has had an eye put out by such a pin under just such circumstances. A sudden movement of the wearer of the pin, a sudden jerk of the street car or elevator and the damage is done. People take greater risks every day of their lives from other things than hat pins. But that isn't the point. The hat pin risk is stupid, needless and reckless. It imperils eyes, and one single human eye is worth more than all the dagger hat pins in the world. No woman with any regard for other people's rights would wear one. No woman who does wear one is entitled to any complaint if the city finds a good legal means of stopping her.—Chicago Record Herald.

Milk Thleves Balked. Only the police know the thousands upon thousands of milk bottles that are stolen in a big city in a year. Most of the milk thieves are poor folk who are too hungry to resist the temptation of food and drink so easily. MILK BOTTLE Saves Empty Bottles, Too. reached, and the New Jersey man who invented the patent, bottle-binder did them a good turn when he removed the temptation from their path as well as he saved householders and milkmen a pretty penny. This holder comprises two clasp members which fit around the bottom and neck of the bottle. A hingelike affair acts as a lock and retains one end of the upper clasp, the lower one being already fast to the wall or door jamb, as the case may be. The milkman sets the bottle in the lower ring, adjusts the upper ring around its neck and snaps the lock, defying early morning prowlers to get the bottle away. In the same way the housewife can prevent other sorts of thieves, who steal the bottles for their trifling value, by locking the empty ones up. Can You Do This Sum? If a bookkeeper on a salary of $12, a week steals $144,000 from a bank in a small city, how much ought an office boy on a salary of $3 a week take from a New York corporation? Back of this question in mental drill-mette lie two serious thoughts. Men and boys who are responsible for vast sums of money or who can obtain access to them should be adequately paid for the services they render and the moral character they must possess to resist great temptation. They should also be heavily bonded, checks should be placed upon them and strict oversight of their work should be provided.—Providence Bulletin.
