This action, while anticipated for several months, is unusual during a session when a rivers and harbors appropriation bill has been passed. Both measures are popularly called "pork barrels," and they have had an unbroken history of alternating in the past, congress never passing both at the same session. The bill makes liberal provision for plans for new and imposing public buildings in Washington City, where the government now pays over $500,000 in annual rentals to private property owners. Provision is made for the construction of new buildings on sites heretofore acquired in part, as follows: Alabama—Cullman, $50,000; Opelika, $55,000. Florida—St. Petersburg, $55,000.

In New York the report was published that a $100,000,000 corporation was being formed to combine some sixteen companies engaged in making bathtubs and to be known as the "bathtub trust." Jobbers already have signed contracts. About $10,000,000 worth of diamonds are smuggled into the United States annually, according to a statement issued by the Importers' Protective union, which has just offered to pay rewards of $2,500 and up for information leading to the arrest of offenders. Robert Hunter, the noted author of "Poverty," who married into the wealthy Stokes family of Norton, Conn., has accepted the socialist nomination for governor in Connecticut and says he will conduct an aggressive campaign, with speakers of national requitment. Stimulated by his party's success in Milwaukee, Hunter says, "It is not a far cry from a city to a state, and the success in Milwaukee will be duplicated in many states within the next few years. ADVICE TO FARMERS. Ten_Things That Should Done On the Farm During This Month. 1. Keep the cultivators going. Level; shallow, frequent, cultivation is what the crops need at this season. Don't cut-the corn and cotton roots by deep plowing. 2. Plant cowpeas, soy beans, velvet beans, peanuts—some legume that will work twenty-four hours a day for you gathering nitrogen, making money and building up the land. Put in a stubble lands not otherwise employed as soon as the oat or wheat crop is taken off. 3. Save all the crimson clover seed possible. If no clover huller is available the seed can be boaten out by hand and sown to the chaff. 4. Get the mower in good running order. See that all bolts are tight, the knives sharp, the guards on straight and the bearings well oiled. A mower is a splendid weed killer as well as a necessity in the hay field. 5. Plant late corn and potatoes. Keep up a latechion of garden crops; beans, tomatoes, sweet corn and other vegetables should be planted this month. Fresh vegetables are cheaper and better than meat or store-bought foods. 6. Spray the apple trees again with Bordeaux and Paris green and the late peaches with lime sulphur. Plow out the first year strawberry beds and plow up the old ones. 7. Look after the work stock. Cut out some of the corn these hot days and substitute cotton seed meal, oats or peavine hay. See that there is enough shade and water as well as grass in your pasture. 8. Fix up a bathroom of some sort, so that you can free yourself from dust and perspiration at the close of the day. It will prove invigorating, add to your sense of dignity and enable you to do better work. 9. Keep up the warfare against files and, mosquitoes and so help ward off typhoid fever and malaria. Screen the doors and windows, drain the stagnant pools and look after the breeding places of the files. 10. Prepare for the Farmers' Institutes in your section, and if there are no Women's Institutes in your state, keep after your officials until they are started.—Raleigh (N. C.) Progressive Farmer and Gazette. BIDDING FOR EXPOSITION. Washington, D. C.-Both San Francisco and New Orleans must raise $7,500,000 before they can hope to receive government endorsement for their expositions in celebration of the completion of the Panama canal. The house committee on foreign affairs decided not to invite foreign nations to participate until these conditions were complied with. Prior to the executive meeting of the committee a representative of San Francisco argued that his city has raised more than $6,000,000 by public subscription and wanted to raise the limit on the Kahn resolution to $7,500,000. A member of the committee hurried outside and talked with Representative Estopinal of Louisiana. "Will New Orleans meet that amount?" asked Estopinal. "Yes," replied Estopinal, "we have already raised $6,000,000, and can easily obtain the rest." If both cities raise the sum at the same time the question is then to be answered the question for his decision, in which event it is not improbable that he will designate both cities to hold expositions. CHILD LABOR REPORT. Use of Child Labor in Cotton Mills Worst in South. Washington, D. C.—The bureau of labor of the department of commerce and labor has completed its investigation of the subject of the employment of women and children in the cotton textile industry of the country as carried on in six southern and four New England states The total number of cotton mills investigated was 198, located as follows: Maine, 7; New Hampshire, 7; Massachusetts, 22; Rhode Island, 10; Virginia, 4; North Carolina, 59; South Carolina, 36; Georgia, 31; Alabama, 13, and Mississippi, 9. These states had in 1908 85.8 per cent of the total cotton spindles in the United States. Among the southern operatives the concentration of the lower age groups is more striking in New England, because of the employment of children at 10 and 13. Of the 143 establishments visited in the five southern states, having child labor laws, 107 employed children under legal age. These 143 establishments employed 9,123 under 10 years of age, and of these 753, or 8.3 percent, under 12, the legal age. This was 1.64 of the total number of employees. GOVERNMENT SEIZES HATS. Government to 'Appraise 'Millions. in Panama. Strawa. New York City.—The most important event on the aweeks" program of the New York customs authorities was the beginning of the appraisal of the Panama hats recently seized by the government. It is believed that under-valuations, reaching more than $1,000,000, will be revealed by the appraisal. More than 145 bales of hats are now in the public stores, and the expectation and appraisal will occupy ten days. If it is found that the hats have been under-valued-75 per-cent, they will be forfeited and sold by the government. THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, JUNE 25, 1910. Encouraging Reports From All Sections of Dixie. THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK BRIGHTER Fourteen Superintendents of Bradstreet Com- Atlanta, Ga.—That the south is fast becoming the most proseperous, section in the country, is the opinion of the fourteen superintendents of the Bradstreet Company, who held a convention in Atlanta. Regarding the marked prosperity of the south, interesting reports are made: CONDITIONS AT SAVANNAH E. C. Myers, superintendent at Savannah, says: "Savannah has in the past year taken on new growth which surpasses any of the previous years. Various business enterprises have been installed. The imports, exports, postoffice receipts, banking figures and business in mercantile lines showed marked increase over the same period of 1909 and preceding years. Outlook for remainder of the year is very bright." OUTLOOK GOOD IN MONTGOMERY George M. Williams, superintendent at Montgomery, says: "Altough at present the depression in financial and business circles is pronounced, yet the outlook is greatly improving. The merchants in general have been more conservative in granting credit than for years past and business as a whole is being operated on a sounder basis. In Montgomery there is a marked activity noted in building operations." GREENVILLE GROWING FAST. B. F. Showalter, Jr., superintendent at Greenville, S. C., says: "Greenville now has a population of 30,000 and is growing rapidly. It is situated in the richest farming section in Carolina, the Piedmont district. The Atlantic Coast Line is now crecting a new depot which will improve the city materially. A new electric line, which will take in the cities of Anderson, Greenville and Spartanburg, is proposed." JACKSONVILLE BUSINESS BRISK Clarence W. Hendley, superintendent at Jacksonville, says: "The Clyde Steamship Company let a contract last month for the building of a new terminal to cost $750,000. The Merchants and Miners' Transportation Company report their, first year's business far in excess of their anticipation. Business is brisk in realty circles. All lines of trade are good." CHARLESTON IS "TIP TOP." F. W. Henneker, superintendent at Charleston, says: "Business in Charleston is 'tip top.' Merchants are all doing a good business, new enterprises are being launched and considerable building is under way, real estate having advanced one-third in value the last three years. The Chamber of Commerce has been reorganized and will start out this fall with a live commercial secretary and 1,000 members, so all aboard for Charleston." PROSPERITY IN BIRMINGHAM. Lee W. Griff, superintendent at Birmingham, says: "The railroads entering Birmingham are hauling all the tonnage they can well handle. The coal mines, especially steam coal, are taxed to the, utmost capacity to supply demand. Natural gas has been found some miles out from Birmingham and a franchise to put in a pipe line in the city has been procured. All indications are favorable for continued growth and prosperity." CHATTANOOGA. GROWING. John L. Wray, superintendent at Chattanooga, says: "Every phase of the city's commercial life has shown good progress during the past year. Census just completed will show the city's population about $0,000 as compared with 70,000 last year. Building permits show 30 per cent increase. Fifteen story Hamilton National Bank building commenced. Strawberry crop just marketed amounted to $650,000, biggest in history of industry." INDUSTRIES ARE NUMEROUS. J. N. Clark, superintendent at Albany, says: "Albany has about 12,000 to 15,000 inhabitants, and is growing dally. Being well, located and accessible from all directions, having five railroads, it bids fair to be one of the principal cities of the state. Industries are numerous, and wholesale houses plentiful." TAMPA COMING INTO ITS OWN. George A. Fallin, superintendent at Tampa, says: "Tampa is coming into its own and is destined to become the greatest of all the gulf ports. The present congress has appropriated $300,000 as the first annual appropriation for harbor improvements at Tampa* on work which the engineers have estimated will cost $1,760,000. This will give Tampa 25 feet of water in a channel 300 feet wide, and nearly seven miles more of dockage. Our main industry is the clear Havana cigar, business. Fifty-two per cent of the phosphate in the world passed through Tampa's port in 1909. The natural trend of events will place Tampa supreme as the base of naval stores operations." GROCERS DENY WRONGDOING President of Southern Grocers Association Makes Statement Jacksonville, Fla.—J. H. McLaurin, president of the Southern Wholesale Grocer's Association, expressed great surprise that federal prosecution should be taken against the association by the federal authorities. He was aware that several parties in Washington were trying to interest the attorney-general in the prosecution, but he stated it was evident that the attorney general did not realize the true reasons for the activities of the parties trying to bring on the suit. Mr. McLaurin believes that the sole purpose of their action was to further individual litigation now pending in the courts at Birmingham and elsewhere, in an effort to influence public sentiment. "The allegations of the present complaint of the United States as reported in the newspapers," continued Mr. McLaurin, "are willyly incorrect and can be proven so. The Southern Wholesale Grocers' Association is simply an association for social and legitimate business purposes, like the National Wholesale Grocers' Association, which covers the northern states, retails; grocers' associations, cotton growers' associations, fruit growers' associations and like associations which exit in practically every business and occupation in the country, and unless they are all held to be illegal and in violation of the acts of congress, I do not think that the Southern Wholesale Grocers' Association will be held to be so." STATEHOOD BILL SIGNED. President Affixes His Signature to Bill Admitting Four States. Washington, D. C.-President Taft signed the statehood bill in the presence of Postmaster General Hitchcock, Senator Beveridge and Representative Hamilton, chairmen, respectively of the senate and house committees on territories; Delegate Cameron of Arizona; Delegate Andrews of New Mexico; James T. Williams, Jr., editor of The Tucson Citizen, and several others. Two pens were used in affixing the signature. "Approved. Wm. H." was signed with a solid gold pen, made to order by Postmaster General Hitchcock, who has done much hard work in putting the bill through. "Taft" was written with a big eagle feather pen, presented by Delegate Andrews, and "June 20, 1910," was written with the gold pen. YOUNG'ROOSEVELT MARRIED. Women Fight Police at Wedding of Ex-President's Son. New York City---Miss Eleanor Alexander, daughter of Mrs. Henry Addison Alexander, was married to Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., in the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church, amid exciting scenes outside the edifice. A crowd of thousands of persons surrounded the church, packed Fifth avenue for four blocks and struggled with 200 policemen. Most of those in the crowd were women. They were at first bent upon getting into the church. Former President Roosevelt, father of the groom, occupied a prominent position in the edifice. Near him was a delegation of Rough Riders. FIGHT ON COAL RATES. Augusta Claims Coal Rates Are Discriminatory. Washington, D. C.—Complaint was made to the Interstate Commerce Commission by the Chamber of Commerce of Augusta, Ga., of the freight on backroad Creek, Tenn., to Augusta. It is alleged in the petition that the existing rate is not only unreasonable but discriminatory. The complaint is directed against the Southern Railway and other carriers, whose rates from Coal Creek to Atlanta is $1.35 a ton; to Athens, Ga., $1.00 a ton; to Macon, Ga., $1.80 a ton and to Augusta $2.10 a ton. Augusta, it is maintained, ougat to have a rate of $1.80 a ton from Coal Creek, and the petition asks that that rate be fixed by the commission. GOVERNORS TO MEET. National Conference to Be Held at Frankfort, Kentucky. Frankfort, Ky.-The national conference of governors, which has inaugurated as a regular annual event during Roosevelt administration, will be held this year at Frankfort and Louisville. The governors of all the states in the union will meet in Frankfort November 29 to discuss conservation, prison reform and other topics that seem to call for concerted action by the state governments. The second day's session, which will end the conference, will be held in Louisville on November 30. President Taft and ex-President Roosevelt will attend. Georgia Canteloupes Ready. Albany, Ga.-The first-four cars of southwest Georgia coulesteps went forward. Sheriff F, G. Tdwards shipped a car from his field, near Albany, and Stripling & Co. of Camilla sent their first car forward. Other cars are red y and the season will be at its height within a week. American Girl Marries Title. London, England. — Miss Milred Carter, only daughter of John Ridgely Carter, American minister to Roumania, Seryla and Bulgaria, and Lord Acheson, oldest son of Lord and Lady Gosford, were married at St. George's Church in Hanover Square. REFUSES TO TALK POLITICS Col. Roosevelt Reiterates Desire to Drop From Public Gaze-He Will Tour Country New York City.—Theodore Roosevelt set foot on home shores for the first time in nearly 15 months, and received a neatly welcome. He bore with his usual buoyancy a day of heavy fatigues, public duties and private omotions commingled and after a family reunion left the city he had surveyed from afloat, reviewed in parade ashore and greeted by explicit word of mouth, to be welcomed more intimately by his lifelong neighbors at Oyster Bay, Long Island. As a private citizen, he was the same outspoken, vigorous man of both words and deeds the city of his birth had known for 30 years as assemblyman, police commissioner, assistant secretary of the navy, colonel of the Rough Riders, governor of the state, vice president and president of the nation, and more latterly ambassador to the jungle and monitor to those who sit in the seats of the mighty. He had an expansive smile for everybody, a cheery word for "the boys," his old friends, the newspaper men, a pat and anecdote for the politicians and special greetings of affection for his old command, the Rough Riders. The first zest of public curiosity, speculation, now turns on what saare Roosevelt will take in an acute political situation within his own party. But on that score speculation must rest unsatisfied. The colonel positively declared his intentions. "I have nothing whatever to say in the immediate future about politics." It was the policy he had announced on his departure for Europe, which he had reiterated on his return to civilization, and to which he had steadfastly adhered in all his addresses before the learned societies and universities of Great Britain and the continent. Therefore, there was nothing in the only speech he made here that could be construed as applying specifically to this or that phase of immediate state or national issues. Cyster Bay, N. Y. — Sunday was Theodore Roosevelt's first day of rest in months. The return to privacy is a delight to him, and he made it known that it was his desire to drop just as far out of public sight as the public will let him. In the autumn he will make a tour of the country. WEATHER FAVORS COTTON. Excessive Rainfall Has Delayed Crop in Georgia and Carolina. Memphis, Tenn.—The Commercial-Appal publishes this summary of cotton crop conditions: The past week was favorable to the cotton crop except in the two Carolinas and parts Georgia, where the rainfall was excessive, washing the fields and delaying cultivation that grass is formed. North Carolina fields were damaged by flooding. Elsewhere it appeared that a week of bright weather will repair much of the loss. The crop has not grown rapidly, and is still small for the season. The plant generally looks healthy, however, and would grow very fast with high temperature day and night. In many sections where, there are complaints, correspondents anticipate much better reports next week if the weather is warm. It would seem that a week of dry weather would put the crop in excellent shape as to cultivatol throughout the south. In Texas the soil is dry, but as yet little hurt has been received. Moisture is needed, however, to stimulate plant growth. Boll weevil does not appear numerous, although in Mississippi and some sections of Louisiana they are more so. In general dry, warm weather is needed in east Texas and Oklahoma, while rains would be beneficial in these two states. Montgomery, Ala.—Heavy rains of the last week have retarded the cotton crop somewhat. In some places the plants were washout out. In others, where replanting was necessary because of the April cold, the plant is small, and grass is thick. It has been so damp that it was impossible to work the fields, but the last few days of hot, dry weather will do much to restore normal conditions. The stand throughout Alabama is good and planters expect an average) crop. A feature of this season is the great amount of land planted in corn. A bumper crop of corn is expected. RAILROAD BILL SIGNED. Bill Amending Interstate Commerce Now a Law. Washington, D. C.—President: 'Taft signed the railroad bill. The bill is in accordance with the president's message demanding amendments to the interstate commerce laws. The only exceptions are that it does not legalize holding agreements made by railroads, permit mergers or regulating the issuance of stocks or bonds. It creates a commerce court, and also broadens the scope of the jurisdiction by the commerce commission and brings telegraph, telephone and cable companies within that jurisdiction: Supervision is given 'to the commission over increases' of rates. BOOSTING THE SOUTH. Washington, D. C.-In a constant effort looking toward the upbuilding of industries in the south and the attracting of homeseekers and settlers who will make desirable citizens for the country along its lines the Southern Railway Company, through its Land and Industrial Department, with offices located in this city, is doing a work which has been and is of vast importance in the great progressive movement in the south. At the headquarters of this department, which occupies a three story building on Pennsylvania avenue, there has been collected a display of the agricultural, manufactured, mineral and forest products of the south which in themselves constitute a comprehensive, permanent exposition or the territory south of the Ohio and Potomac rivers and east of the Mississippi. This is open at all times to the inspection of every one, it has been visited by thousands and has been the means of interesting many prospective settlers in the south and bringing to this section the most desirable class of citizens. This permanent exposition as a nucleus makes it possible for the Southern Railway through its Land and Industrial Department to make attractive exhibits and firsthand experiences and west which make a splendid showing for the south. No matter how short notice the department may have it is ready and able to make a creditable display of the vastly varied products of the country covered by the lines of the Southern Railway. In this particular line the Southern Railway Company has done a great work, having made very elaborate and attractive exhibits at all notable exhibitions for many years past and this has involved very considerable expenditure on the part of this company in each instance. In addition to this exhibition of southern products and manufactures there has been collected a great mass of information about the south, which has been classified and arranged in such a manner that at a moment's notice the most detailed facts can be given as to the products and resources of any county through which a line of the Southern Railway passes. This compendium of information about the south, which is without an equal, represents the work of years of intelligent and persistent effort to the south and gathering those facts which will properly show to the world its attractive features. With this information in hand the department has laboured, increasingly in the special work of locating industries at all points along the company's lines and in inducing desirable settlers in the north and west and in northern Europe to turn toward the south to make their homes. EFFECTS 500.000 OPERATORS. Short-Time Policy Adopted by New England Cotton Mills. Boston, Mass.—Fully 50,000 operatives in the New England states are already affected by a short-time policy for the summer months, which has been decided upon by numerous manufacturers of textiles, and it is expected that the number will be doubled during July and August. Mill men say that there is more cotton mill machinery idle now than at any time since last fall. Washington News. After overruling the recommendations of its confeeres on the naval appropriation bill by agreeing to senate amendments that one battleship should be built in a navy yard and not more than one of them should be constructed by the same contractor, and agreeing to have a $1,000,000 collared built in a navy yard of the Pacific coast, the house approved the report of its confeeres on that measure. Further disagreement was ordered upon the senate amendments authorizing four submarine torpedo boats to cost $2,000,000, five submarines to cost $2,500,000 and six torpedo boat destroyers to cost $750,000 each. Postmaster General Hitchcock has issued instructions for the promotion, on July 1, of nearly thirty thousand postoffice clerks and city letter carriers. This action was taken under the authority conferred on him in the postoffice appropriation bill passed at the present session of congress. More than a million dollars has been paid into the treasury on account of the corporation tax Receipts for June have aggregated $342,642. Twenty-seven million dollars in assessments have been levied against the corporations of the country under the corporation tax law. The tax is payable on or before June 30. Most of the corporations whose assessments run into the hundreds of thousands will wait, in all probability, until the last moment before paying up, thus utilizing in other directions the tax money. What is commonly designated the plumbing trust is under investigation by the department of justice. The so-called combination has various ramifications, and one feature of it has been popularly called the hardware or the bathhut trust. Numerous complaints have been made, alleging generally the existence of a combination to maintain prices. One of these was to the effect that as a result of the operations of the trust jobbers who sold to retailers at cut prices were cut off from plumbers' supplies. Discouraged in his attempt to induce congress to increase the number of officers in the army, Secretary Dickinson has taken steps to recall officers from detail stations to the line. Treasury of State of Georgia Florida JAN 17 1800 190 The principal Territorial of the State of Georgia hereby acknowledges to have received from the following described Territory, to read: Dear Regiment of the Army of the Expedition, Company (Company C) Territory, in connection with the Government, June 1920 being an Act of the Thousand Dollars and which are held by the Rate of Gargia by authority and under the provisions of an Act of the General Assembly, approved October 22d, 1887, and amended December 20th, 1889. R. E. Pandi Treasurer of the State of Georgia. Over Halfa Million Dollars for Public Buildings in This State. MORE MAY BE APPROPRIATED Senator Clay Expects to Take Care of Several Towns Not Mentioned in the House Bill-No Veto Feared. Washington, D. C.-Georgia gets over half a million of money for public buildings in the public building bill, just reported to the house. The bill, as a whole, carries eighteen and one-half millions, and the hearts of favored representatives are going pit-a-pat until they learn as to whether or not President Taft will really consider, that the interests of economy demand the veto of the bill. It is expected that several amendments will be put on in the senate and Senator Clay expects to take care of one or two Georgia towns which were left out of the house bill. The appropriations were made largely by the rule adopted by the committee in making appropriations for buildings, where any were authorized, according to population or postal receipts. Under this rule, some Georgia towns get $45,000, other $50,000 and still others a higher amount. Augusta $250,000, Dublin $6,000 increase, Statesboro $7,500 for building, Tifton $50,000 for building, Cordele $17,500 increase for building, Carrollton $45,000 for building, Newnan $7,500 increase, LaGrange $8,000 increase, Barnesville $5,000 for site, Milledgeville $10,000 increase, Carterville $45,000 for building, Rome $10,000 increase, Elberton $45,000 for building, Quitman $50,000 for site and building. The items marked "increases" were those given to bring the former appropriations for towns named up to the amount authorized under the committee rule for towns of their size. Conferences that have been held between President Taft and leaders of both houses of congress, including Speaker Cannon, apparently assure the enactment of the bill into law. The bill makes liberal provisions for plans for new and imposing public buildings in Washington city. AGRICULTURAL REPORT. Commissioner of Agriculture Submits Report for 1910. Atlanta, Ga—Commissioner of Agriculture T. G. Hudson has just submitted to Governor Brown his annual report for the year ending December 31, 1909. One of the most interesting features of the report is the statement of P. A. Methvin, state pure food inspector of the excellent progress which has been made in improving the grade of food products sold in the state under the pure food and drugs act passed by the legislature last year. Inspector Methvin shows that he has carefully inspected the food and feeding stuffs placed on sale in this state and while numerous violations of the law have been detected, a worm to the manufacturer or the producer has proven effective in most cases and the grade of the articles offered for sale has been made to conform to the provisions of the law. State Drug Inspector T. A. Cheatham also submits an interesting report, showing that rigid enforcement of the dry law has practically removed from the market in this state all drugs which do not conform to the law. Dr. R. E. Stallings, state chemist, shows that with the passage of the pure food and drugs act the work of his department has increased enormously, and he urges that some provision be made for increasing the force of employees. The amount of work done by State Entomologist E. L. Worsham covers a wide range for the year and spite of the constantly increasing demand for inspections of orchards, the growing crops and shade and ornamental trees on private estates, the work has been done thoroughly well. Great progress has been made in stamping out the San Jose scaie, the "black root" or wilt disease of cotton and diseases of fruits and crops. DEMONSTRATIVE FARMING. Work Being Done in Houston County Under Instruction of Government. Perry, Ga—W. C. Lewis, agent of demonstrative farming operations in Houston county, which is conducted under plans and directions furnishe. by the department of agriculture, is making good headway in his line. He has enlisted in this work 63 farmers, some in every section of the county. These farmers have under cultivation from one to twenty-five acres each. The aggregate of all, the crops under cultivation is 108 acres of corn, and 205 acres of cotton. They have applied from 200 to 1,000 pounds of commercial fertilizers per acre, besides other home-made fertilizing materials, and will apply more during the growing season and cultivation of their crons. The crops are all in good condition, clean and fine stands. The cotton is late, but now making rapid growth These farmers receive literature and directions for cultivating and applying fertilizers to their crops from the national department of agriculture in Washington.

The capture created a great sensation in that section of the city. The bear was flushed in the river swamp and after a long run he was finally caught and killed almost in the city limits. The chase was a very exciting whirl it lasted. Physician Shot by Patient Who Said He Hadn't Been Cured. St. Louis, Mo.—Dr. John M. Grant, a prominent physician, was shot twice by Alosius W. Rayne, a driver for a department store. The physician was alighting from his automobile in front of his office when he was attacked. A stenographer at Dr. Grant's office said the shooting followed Dr. Grant's orders to the driver to move his wagon from the curb. Rayne, at the police station, sald he had, been a patient of Dr. Grant and that the treat- ment he had received had failed. Once a week or once a month inco DEPOSIT THIS IN OUR SAVI NEGLECT TO SAVE.

The next convention of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks will be held in Boston in June, 1912. The eight-hour day assessment which has been enforced by the International Bookbinders' Union has been discontinued. The income for the last year of International Cigar Makers' Union was $828,498.87. Benefits paid out for the year were $553,832.34. Union relief paid to the Northumberland (England) strikers brings the total amount expended since the passing of the Dear coal act to nearly $40,000. Organized labor contemplates recommending a nine-hour day and a fifty-four hour week for women at the next session of the Legislature of Washington. In the third quarter of 1909 there were fifty-three strikes or lockouts in New York State, which directly involved 18,901 employees, as compared with thirty-nine such disputes, with 6993 workers directly concerned in 1908. During the last two years the reduction in hours to the members of the International Typographical Union has amounted to 551,070 per year—an average of 234 hours, or twenty-nine and one-fourth days of eight hours for each member. The Porto Rican Free Federation of Workingmen is seeking Federal legislation that the right of action to recover damages for injuries resulting in death is never to be abrogated, and the amount recoverable not subject to any statutory limitation.

I have had a chance to prove you, I have lived with you. When by other friends forsaken, When the world grew drear, You were forlorn, were unshaken, You were ever near. She who blessed me in life's morning Lovely, meek and mild; All my little world adorning; For me when a child; Of her love has time bereft me; Mold is on her face; Sorrow, you alone are left me; You must take her place. She, that, other being, nearer Still than, all the rest; Light of dawning manhood, dearer Than words have expressed; Soul first, birth love and, only, She has written, too; For away. My heart is lonely; Get it lean on you. When life's path was sunnier, brighter, Friends were round me then; Moths and flies flit, where its lighter; So, sometimes, do men. When adversity o'erook me, Friends seemed to forget; But you never once forsook me, You were faithful yet. Mother, loved one, friends have vanished, Clouds hang darkly o'er. All life's happiness seems banished, From me, overnurse; Sorrow I am, and lonely, Stay you, by my side. Let me keep you as my only Teacher, friend and guide. —J. A. Edgerton. THE MAD ENGINEER. BY ARTHUR L. MESERVE. What is the matter with you, Kirk? Somehow you have looked and acted strangely to me to-day? I said this to the engineer of my train as we stood on the platform of the station at W—about ready to start. Mine was a late train. We left W—at 6.30 p. m. for a run of it was dark already. It would be a black night, for the sky was overcast and there was no moon. My engineer stood on the platform a little ahead of his engine, so that the glow from the headlight revealed him plainly to me without the aid of the lantern which I held in my hand. He stood motionless, looking away down the track as though he were down the track as though he were gazing upon the ralls stretching out ward like two bars of gleaming light, becoming less and less brilliant until they were swallowed up in the dark- ness beyond. "That afternoon, whenever I chanced to see him, Kirk had appeared strange to me. He seemed excited, and there was a wild, look about his eyes such as I had never noticed before. He did not look or act like a man who had been drinking, and I had no reason to think that he had, for to my knowledge he had never taken a glass of liquor in his life. As I spoke to him the turned quick- ly, had I 'saw' again the look I have mentioned. It was only for a moment, and then it was gone, and he seemed himself again. "What do you mean?" he said. "There is nothing the matter with me. Why do you ask?" "Because, you have hardly seemed yourself to day. You don't look sick, still, there seems to be something the matter. There has nothing gone wrong with you, I hope?" "Nothing," he answered. "I never was in better spirits. It is almost time to go, is it not?" I took out my watch and glanced at the time. He did the same, and we compared our timepieces. It still lacked three minutes of the time of starting. "There was hardly a second's difference, in our watches." I turned and walked back to the other end of the platform. The passengers were pouring into the car, and I saw that I was to have a large train. As I watched them passing in, I was oppressed by a feeling, such as I had never felt before. It seemed that they were intrusting their lives to my keeping, and that if any accident happened I would be guilty of their death. I abudot "All aboard!" gave the signal to start, and we were off into the gloom, and the darkness of the night. We were to make but three stops between our starting point and K. River junction. The first one was twenty miles away, and therefore there was no necessity of haste in going through the train. For several minutes I remained in the baggage car, and then commenced my work of examining the tickets of the passengers. I had gone through the smoking car, and was passing between that, and the first passenger coach, when it occurred to me that we were going at, higher rate of speed than was necessary for us to reach the first stopping place on time. Still I did not know but that I might be mis-taken. Wirked had always been a careful driver, and took up all his time between stations, so that our pauses might be as short as possible. The thought regarding four speeches was uppermost in my mind as I slowly made my way through the next car which was a provided garer and it took me some time to get through. One woman had lost her ticket and after looking everywhere except in the right place, it was found at last in her satchel. Before this was decomplished the certainty was forced upon me that we were going to be the ride of speed. The car swayed from side to side with a motion peculiar to rapid travelling, and I knew that we were shooting onward at the rate of fully a minute, minutes and hours. Swiftly, then, the horrible suspicion fashed across my brain, that all was, not right with Kirk—that we were in the power of a madman. Surely it must be so, or he would never be driving the war he was. I wondered why it was that the fireman did not endeavor to stop him or to communicate in some way with me. He was a slight built-youth, and if the engineer were man, he would stand-band with a slight chance with him. Perhaps he had escaped to reason with him, and Kirk had thrown him from the cab. He added with alarm the passengers, so I passed quietly back through the tarf but I had no sooner shut the door "behind" me, than I grasped the cord overhead for the purpose of giving the signal to stop. But no response was given. There was no signal for down brakes, and we went whirling on through the darkness at a rate such as we had never run before. Surely Kirk was mad, and all our lives hung by a thread. From the objects on the roadway I knew, that we were close to our first stopping place. If all was not right there, a hundred souls were doomed to instant destruction. There was but one thing for me to do, and that was to make my way to the engine as soon as possible. I hurried into the baggage car and there found one of my brakemen talking with the baggage master, with a face as white as a sheet. "Follow me," I said to the latter. "There's some trouble on the engine, Hurry! stand-by the brakes, ready to put them on the moment you get the signal to do so." I threw open the door at the foremost end of the baggage car, and clambered up on the wood which was heaped high upon the tender. "Once there I saw a sight such as I never hope to see again." The furnace door was, open, and the great glow which sprang out revealed everything to me as plainly as though it were broad daylight. The fireman lay on the floor of the cab apparently devoid of life. The engineer, with a face like that of a demon, was hurling the wood into the glowing-furnace. The throttle was out-to its utmost extent, and the engine rocked and sprang onward as though it was as mad as the insane men who had it in charge. Al our ill-were were in peril. If we were moment the sight paralyzed us both. The baggage master had climbed on to the wood with me, and his face I knew was but a reflection of my own. "Come on!" I cried, breaking the spell at last. "We must secure him, or we are all dead men." We sprang forward toward the madman. He saw us coming, and seemed to divine in an instant what our errand was. Grasping a huge billet of wood, he sent it whirling at my head. By good fortune it went past me, leaving me untouched. The next moment, and before he could grasp, another missile, I threw myself upon him, and we went down together. By good fortune I came uppermost, and then came a terrific struggle. The madman seemed possessed of the strength of a Samson. Had I been underneath, he would have choked my life out of me in less than a minute's time. The baggage master sprang over us, and the next instant came the signal for down brakes. The he reversed the engine, and our terrible speed was lessened. The madman was doing his best to throw us both from the cab, and in spite of all my strength it seemed that he would do it. The baggage mester saw that there was only one way to save my life. Grasping a heavy piece of wood he watched his chance, and when it came he dealt him a blow on the head, which ended this struggles at once. Three minutes later we gilded into the station, and put one of the passengers on the train know of the terrible danger which they had escaped. The madman was lifted from the cab and placed in the hands of the proper authorities, and to-day he is an inmate of a madhouse, with little hope that reason will ever dawn again.—New York Weekly. A whistle or loud "noise maker" of some kind is one of the most important attachments of a motor boat, for not only does it serve as a signal to warn other boats on which do you intend to pass them, but on cruises it is useful in announcing the approach of your craft to locks, drawbridges, and the like, and will thus save much-time in waiting for the tender to arrive at the scene of operations. Owing to the noise made by the motor, in practically every power craft, a loud whistle or siren should be used for signaling in order that it may be heard over the much nearer sound of the engine in the other boat. A contrary wind, will also greatly reduce the carrying power of the whistle and blows a splash of water against the hull will form a disconcerting sound which must be overcome if the signal is to be heard by the occupants of another boat even a short distance away. In buying a whistle, then, remember that it will sound much louder, in a closed room than so often when many other nearer sounds are doing their best to draw out its much seemingly husky tool—Outing. LITTLE THINGS Fort Knowing The deserts of the earth cover 4, 130,000 square miles. Musk importations in 1903 amounted to over $80,000. Women need on the average nine- fenths the nourishment requisite for men. "Any one with the price can do as Gaylord Wilshire did—go to Inyo County, Cal., and stand on a mountain of gold and silver ore." The total number of patents issued in all countries which thus protect their inventors from the earliest times to December 1, 1909, was 2,999,432. Rumbrs have been rife that the constitution of young Japan is degenerating year after year, says the Elbun Tsushinsha, but they are firmly denied by the authorities. Europe's forest schools—at Charlottenburg, Dresden and Elberfeld, in Germany, also at Borsal Wood, near London—are attracting the interest of physicians and teachers. There have been only eight speakers of the House of Commons since the first reformed Parliament of 1833. Within a year Germany has added 130 officers of all ranks to her naval personnel, including one vice-admiral and one rear-admiral. The 12-inch Elswick guns used in the English navy weigh sixty-nine tons, and the shells from them can penetrate nearly four feet of wrought iron at 2000 yards. Nearly 600,000 cycles are manufactured in Great Britain and Ireland in the course of a year, and their value is about $18,000,000. In the course of a year over 1,877,600,000 passengers are carried by the local railways, tramways and principal omnibus companies of London. A blind man named Frank Suits, at Greenfield, Ind., is able to follow the plow, and has broken fifteen acres this spring without help. The most valuable pipe in the world is the state pipe of the Shah of Persia. It, is set with precious stones, and is worth $400,000. The Weather Bureau has arranged to give daily weather forecasts by telephone to farmers in Texas: At noon each day rural subscribers are called up, and the weather forecast is announced to all simultaneously. Subscribers in towns and cities can obtain the weather forecast at any time of the day after 11 a. m. by calling up central. The common crow is one of the slowest of flying birds, and yet it can keep up with ease a constant average speed-of about thirty miles an hour. The Perils of Bird Migration. By HERBERT K. JOB. It may be asserted, with considerable degree of probability, that there is no one natural factor more destructive to bird life than this migratory habit. Here is a well known recent instance. One night in March there was an immense migration of Lapland longspurs over Minnesota. A wet snowstorm came on, chilling and bewildering the birds. Over an area estimated at hundreds of square miles dead birds were found. In the towns and cities they swept them up and carted them off. On wide lakes the ice was dotted with them in all directions, about a foot or two apart. The number that perished at that one time was doubtless in the millions. Castle Ashby and Its Texts: Castle Ashby, the residence of the Marquis of Northampton, stands alone among all the "stately homes of England" as embodying in its architectural features texts of Scripture in solid masonry set out for every one to see in the most prominent places possible. The porter's lodge at the entrance to the mansion bears on its cornice the inscription in Latin, "The Lord preserve thy coming in," and on the inner cornice the text, "The Lord preserve thy going out." The same ideas have been carried out in the design of the balustrades of the terraces surrounding the lawns and flower beds, which make the gardens of Castle Ashby among the most beautiful in the country. The mansion itself is unique, as all its pediments are composed of texts of Scripture in Latin. Commencing at the south end of the west wing is the inscription, in bold letters, "Except the Lord, the Keeper, keep the house, in vain he watches who keeps it." Then follows another inscription, dated 1624, the year the house was completed, "Except the Lord build the house, they have labored in vain who build it." Along the outer banister, we read, "Blessed, are they fear the Lord, who walk in His ways." Praise ye the Name of the Lord. Amen." Lord Northampton is, it may be stated, president of the Bible Society.—The Treasury. PRETTY THINGS TO WEAR New-York City—Such a blower as this one is sure to meet with approval. It, is pretty, and dainty, and suits all the fashionable thin materials. Fing lawn makes this one and the trimming is banding of Valenciennes lace, but everything that can be laid in fine tucks is appropriate. Silk and cotton moussseine would be charming, foulard is made in lingerie style and muslins include a variety of exceedingly attractive fabrics, while for the banding any lace or embroidery or trimming of the sort is appropriate. The sleeves are pretty 1 and novel, with deep cuffs over which the sleeves fall free, and this feature is a notable one of the season. As illustrated the cuffs and the trimming portion for the front are made from the material tucked, but these could be of all-over lace or of something else in contrast if preferable; or the centre front and cuffs of plain material embroidered would be dainty. The waist is made with front and backs, the sleeves, the cuffs and the trimming portion. The lining consists of front and back portions and is fitted by means of darts. Banding is arranged over the shoulders and to this banding is attached a fold of the material, which gives somewhat the effect of pleats. When high neck is desired the chemisette is added. When the lining is used the cuffs are arranged over it, when it is omitted they are joined to the sleeves at the upper edge of the trimming. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and one-fourth yards twenty-four or twenty-seven, two and one-fourth yards thirty-two or two yards forty-four inches wide, with seven yards of banding. Loosely Woven Fabrics. It looks as though we were about to see a season of sheer, loosely-woven fabrics, which call for the use of some under material, either in the form of lining or as a slip for separate wear under these transparent garments. The New Veil. The new vell is of a very coarse silk filk mesh of gossamer-like texture. But the main point about the vell is its arrangement. It is divided in front, falling from the hat in straight lines at each side and the back. ```markdown ``` With, Square or High Neck, Short or Long Sleeves, With or Without Empire Effect. Many Kinds of Cuffs. The choice of a cuff is as broad as the choice of a collar. The cheaper variety of shirtwaists have the straight, stiffened cuff, cut like the one on a man's shirt, and held together with link, buttons. It is far prettler, however, to avoid this sign of a cheap waist and put on narrow turnover cuffs, or wrinkle the sleeves over the wrist and finish with a tiny, edge of lace; then fasten with lace buttons. The Francis I. The Francis I. hat is nothing but a big, graceful brow, or which the milliner sets a hand-made crown, of plurable braid, tulle, flowers, or net. With such a foundation an endless variety of hats is possible to the woman who is clever with her needle and who can make and change her own crowns as her whim or the occasion demands. To facilitate this process the crowns may be fastened to the brim by means of snappers sewed on at regular intervals on the two parts. College Blouse. The college, or middy, blouse is a pronounced favorite. This one is designed for misses and small women and will be 'found-pecularly well adapted to outdoor sports and to all occasions of the sort. It is loose, allowing perfect freedom of movement, yet it is smart in effect. It can be worn over any skirt. White linen makes this one and it is banded with blue, but there are various materials that are appropriate, although linen is always a favorite. Cotton poplin, and twilled muslin are favorites, and trimming preferably consists of material in contrasting color. The blouse is made with front and back and is drawn on over the head, there being only a short opening below the collar. The collar can be made as illustrated, or of one material throughout, as liked. The full sleeves are without gathers at the shoulders and finished with straight cuffs, but there are also plain two-piece sleeves included in the pattern and these are gathered at the shoulders. Tennis The quantity of material required for the medium size (sixteen years) is three and one-half yards twenty-one or twenty-four, two and five-eighth yards thirty-two or two and one-half yards forty-four inches wide, with three and one-half yards of narrow, one and one-half yards of wide banding. Satin Celintures. It is said that, with the advent of the gowns to come, satin celtements will return. These will not be so high, but the point in front will be very decided and the fastening will be ornamented with tassels or fringe. In fact, the general idea seems to be to adhere as closely as possible to pendent accessories, even though the cut of the gown will accentuate more the curves than the straight lines of the figure. T Child's Coat. Closing at the Waist. The coat closing at the waist line is preferred for light suits, as it provides the deep-opening which is pretty with the lingerie waist and the fashionable frill. Colored/ Wooden Beads. Fantastically colored wooden beads have a distinct place in present fashions. Tunicies edged with, wooden beads dyed to match the color of the gown are decidedly effective. HOUSEHOLD MATTERS Don'ts in House Decoration. Women when on a hunt for wall paper often get confused because they see such a variety, and finally become so bewildered at the array that a wrong-selection is made. A small but important hint for the would-be buyer is this: First ask for a dark green paper, and look at it whether you want it or not, simply to focus the eyes. In a few seconds the sight will become rested and the varieties that are produced will look better. Every now and then turn to the green paper to relieve the strain on the eyes.—New York Sun. Gas Waste'in Cooking. The majority of women waste gas in cooking. The wasteful ones keep the burner on at full height all the time food is cooking, and oven burner, turned on full until the food is taken out. When the boiling has started, the gas may be lowered so that it merely maintains the boiling, and often the, simmer burner is sufficient. In many, instances the oven burner may be turned off before the food is done, and the heat retained in the oven will be sufficient for the proper cooking of the food.—Indianapolis News. Decorations For the Table. For the small sum of twenty-five cents a lunchoon or dinner table may be made exceedingly attractive if a jar or vase of flowers is placed in the centre. Falling those, when the income must be considered, fruit is a good substitute, and a dish of oranges is by no means to be deprised, even as a centrepiece for dinner. The fruit should be put into a glass, silver or fancy bowl. As green adds enormously to their decorative effect, an effort should be made to get it, and if the cost of burying at a florist's makes it prohibitive, one should try fruit dealers, for almost all fruits that are boxed from wholesalers have green leaves as trimming. Mountain laurel is frequently used by them, and for ten cents one should secure two or three sprays. The leaves may be stripped off and placed among the interstices of the whole oranges. They will keep for several days. Asparagus vine is never expensive, and a fancy bowl of this in the centre of the table is ornamental. The addition of a rather large bow of bright red satin ribbon, tucked among the sprays, will greatly increase the warmth of effect. Any person who has friends living out of town should be able to get hydrangeas now. These flowers have wonderful powers of endurance. I use this expression because they seem to be able to withstand dust, and dry in perfect shape. For a while they are nice on the table, particularly if centrepieces embroidered in different bright colors are placed beneath the jar holding them. Hydrangeas should never be put into glass. They require the thickness and color of china. A pretty piece of copper in which a small fern is placed is one of the most economical ways of decorating the centre of a table. For the metal when kept bright takes on a pinkish shade that is charming, and ferna put in it, if small and low, are prettier than when large. Red in the centre-piece, or deep pink, adds to their beauty.—New York Herald. To Care For Pianos. In many households there is not a piece of furniture that is more sorely neglected than the plano, and any one who has studied the construction of the plano knows that its mechanism is more delicate, intricate and sensitive than any other musical instrument. It is no wonder that it requires a great deal of care when this is taken into consideration, and suffers severely from neglect. Some people are of the opinion that they are treating their plano well when they have it tuned once or twice each year, but it should be tuned no less than four times annually to prevent loss of pitch, and should be kept at a concert pitch all the time. To raise or lower it half a tone means to spoil it immediately. It is almost as important to place the plano well as to have it tuned. It should not be put too near the wall, as this absorbs the tone, and it should be placed near the inner wall rather than the outer, to prevent dampness or cold from affecting it. Dampness is a stance enemy of planos; it rusts the wires, rots the felt, splits the hammers and makes the keys stick. A changing temperature is almost as dangerous, and too great heat, such as caused by the proximity of a radiator or a fireplace, has also its bad effects. Heavy carpets muffle the sound, and this is one of the reasons why music rooms should always have hardwood floors, and why planos should always be placed on little glass insulators when possible. A piano should be kept free from bric-a-brac, pictures and lamps, because they all tend to make the tone metallic. So often when a note is tinny or tremulous it is because it is in sympathetic vibration with some object on or near the instrument. When the pedals squeak they should be greased, and not oilled, or a little talcum powder may be puffed into the hinges. Broken hammers, if not badly damaged, can be repaired with hot glue and bound with cord. Broken ivories can be mended with a little household cement. Yellow ivories can be cleaned with alcohol.—Washington Star. Entered at the Post Office at Savannah, Ga as Second-Class mail matter. SATURDAY, JUNE 25, 1910 Much political significance is given the home coming of Col. Roosevelt. Only the near future will note whatever outcome that there may be. The 39th annual Commencement of Lincoln Institute took place on Friday of last week. This is the largest and one of the best conducted of our State Colleges. We are proud to note that a Savannahian is its president. Next week the city schools will be closed and the teachers and children will be given much needed rest. Parents should be thinking about the proper employment of their children and endeavor to keep them from running the streets especially during the nights. Ir is a fact that the colored Republicans of this State are not being treated as they should be. Those who have official places in the organization are ignorant in party matters. How the voters will take this this will be known when the proper time comes. In the meantime our voters must qualify themselves. Dr. Booker T. Washington, Principal of the Tuskegee Institute has Written an article for the American Magazine, reviewing the work being done by Bert Williams in the New York theatres Williams has come to be one of the highest priced vaudeville artists in the country. Dr Washington also has an article in the June number of the World's Work, urging the expenditure of a large amount of money for the education of Negro people in the rural districts. The Freedmans Bank and Capt. Lyons To Capt. J. W. Lyons of Augusta, is the great credit to be given for the pushing of the Freedman's Bank Bill now pending before Congress. Through his instance a mass meeting of representatives from nearly every county in the state was held during the Masonic Grand Lodge session. Strong resolutions were adopted urging Congress to pass this very important bill. Capt. Lyons is hopeful of its passage. Charity Hospital-A Transformation. The fifteenth annual commencement of this worthy institution, founded by Dr. and Mrs. McKane, took place at the First Congregational Church on Wednesday evening last. Prof. Grant of the State College deliver? a practical address to the graduating class four in number, the diplomas being presented by Mr. E. E. Dosverney, president of the Board of Trustees. The Superintendent, Dr. J. Walter Williams also made some timely remarks. The city of Savannah owes a debt of gratitude to the McKanes for their courage in undertaking such an arduous task. Before the establishment of "Charity" there was but one hospital in the city for colored people, whose doors are closed to colored physicians, consequently those of us who have followed up the histoay of "Charity" realize what a boon it has proven in caring for the sick, giving our physicians hospital practice and sending out a host of young women as trained nurses. What it is to-day is due to the heroic self-sacrifice of faithful workers in the past as well as now. One such is Mrs. Annie Nutall—one of the first graduates—who has given her time, talent and her "goods" for its welfare. It was she who so generously donated a building for the nurses' dormitory thus making them more comfortable than they were before. The whole-souled and indefatigable Dr. T. Jas, Davis, a former superintendent worked assidiously for its betterment. His successor Dr. Lloyd did his best to carry on the work in keeping with the advanced ideas of the day. Enjoying the rare privilege of having as President of the Board of Trustees a skilled accountant in the person of E. E. Desverney, the financial part is scrupulously attended to and every cent from all sources strictly accounted for. Too much stress cannot be laid upon this, as it is so often due to the lax financial methods-in our business-ventures that bring us to grief. At one time, there were nothing but public, wards, but a-public spirited woman—Mrs. Lucy Lucas—who enjoy the confidence of some of our best white citizens, managed to interest a-number of them to the extent that they assisted her in securing and turnishing several, so that to-day those of our people who are obliged to go to the hospital and desire private rooms may have them and at moderate cost. Some of the physicians have stood nobly by the institution, saying a good word for it, collecting money for it, better still giving it up to the treasurer—attending scrupulously to their duties as lecturer and house physician; we have in mind one such man in particular whose modesty and unassuming manners to some might be construed to make it appear that his services are of little moment: but to that man the institution owes much—Dr. W. G. Blackman. The doors of Georgia Infirmary being barred to our physicians we should have felt humiliated if during the sessions of the Medical Association which met in the city recently, we had no place to hold clinics. Dr. J. Walter Williams the present efficient superintendent made such careful arrangements that clinics were held daily, Dr. Roman, Dean Hubbard and others expressing themselves as being highly gratified with the facilities at hand with which to work, and the intelligent service of the nurses. As it is utterly impossible for me to remember the names of all the good friends of the hospital—they are a noble lot God bless them—I hope that no one will take offense. If it were left to me I should have their names engraved in letters of gold on the walls of "Charity." One of old in speaking of rewarding men for their services, said that we should give tribute to whom tribute is due and honour in like manner; this article would, therefore, be incomplete if mention were not made of the painstaking and efficient work of the present head nurse and matron, Mrs. Mary W. Long. A few years ago the friends of the institution were fearful about its success. Seversl "brilliant" head nurses, graduates of noted hospitals in the north had been in charge, yet the returns were not promising. At last the lamented Dr. Lloyd and his associates decided to select one of our own women, born and bred in Savannah, for the responsible position of head nurse and matron. I might, say in passing—and every just physician will agree with me—that an efficient and competent head nurse is just as indispensable to the success of a hospital as good physicians. On December 1st. 1907, Mrs. Long assumed the position—I am almost tempted to say of "Chief cook and bottle washer," for there were times when there was no cook, when there were but a few nurses. And although she was at work all during the day, would be obliged to do night duty—which, judging from appearances and current talk she has filled most creditably: during her brief term of office, a wonderful transformation has taken place; the exterior has been painted, screens and back rests have been gotten, new chairs, the chart system has been improved, new surgical instruments, a new sterilizer, electric lights, inside blinds; the operating room prettily painted in white, with a new operating table and other accessories in keeping is a gem. There have been a larger number of nurses in training, many coming from out of town, and no better evidence can be given of their excellent training than the great demand for their services in the best families of the city. In this way neat little sums of money are taken in at times; indeed the receipts from private patients have been greater than at any time in the history of the institution. No honest person can take issue with the recital of these improvements: it is a fact that they were not there before: it is a fact that they are in evidence on all sides now: and just as a thorough going and wise housewife inspires her husband to do different things for the embellishment of their home, so we believe that she has been in some way, the leading spirit in securing these necessary improvements. At times the hospital is so full of patients that there isn't a vacant bed. No better evidence can be had of the confidence reposed in her ability than the fact that doctors all over the State send their patients to "Charity" while the best white physicians in the city do likewise: some of them seem to think that all they have to do is to perform the operation on their patients and to trust their careful nursing to bring them around all right. Enjoying a wide acquaintance among both races, the visitors to the hospital have increased and she seizes every opportunity for talking in its behalf. Added to her manifold duties she fills the position of Instructor in Practical Nursing, one of the most important branches in nurse training. The progress that has been made, and the high rate of efficiency manifested in the workings of the institution ought to inspire the trustees, physicians and the public at large, with a due sense of appreciation for her painstaking efforts in making "Charity" the pearl among the hospitals of the South. We hope that these few words of commendation will not tend to make the head nurse conceited; she is in the public eye: she is being eyed critically on all sides: there are those who would be only too glad to have her record lowered in some way: she needs to be watchful of all her doings at home and abroad: in other words so to deport herself in all her works and ways that no one can, with justice find fault with her. May she continue to prosper. As it takes a lot of money to run a hospital it is to be hoped that the public at large will be ever ready to contribute some money towards its support and I am sure that any contributions sent to the kind an obliging editor of THE TRIBUNE, who is always ready to say a good word, will be gladly turned over, the proper authorities. God grant that peace, unity and concord might prevail in the Councils of Charity Hospital so that it may be as it ought to be—a veritable house of healing for the amelioration of suffering humanity.

Outing Made Sad by Drownike The afternoon outing ef St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church to Daufuskie.Tuesdsy, was made sad by the drowning of Mr. Willie Lee. This happened immediately after the large number of excur- slonists reéched the island, He was impostuned not to go in swimming but to no avail, He was reputed as a good swimmer, but being overheated from dancing ete., and taking the cold plunge, might have been the cause of his inability to care for himself in the water.. His drowning was witnessed by many and will ever remain asad scene with them. Everything possible was done to resucitate him by several physi- cians present, but their heroic ef- forts were unavailing. The de- cezsed was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bértow Lee. The funeral took place Thursday afternoon from their residence, East Huntington street, and it was largely attended. The sorrowing family has the deepest sympathy of the entire city. Card ef Thanks. The rector of St. Stephens Church wishes to express his grat- itude to the four physicians for their heroic efforts to resuscitate Willie Lee who was drowned at Daufuskie on Tuesday last.

Often on mountain seacoasts the vapor-laden south-wind is seen covering the mountain peaks with a cloudy veil. This same phenomenon can be seen atop some of our peaky alpines. Now atmospheric electricity can take these same 'routes' and harmlessly and silently balance and mix up and neutralize the differing electric loads of earth and air. This may be all to the good in insuring, for miles around, safety from thunderbolts, but at the same time it may be stealing something from the farms and gardens of the vicinage, for lightning loads the air with bushels of nitrous gases which descend with the rain to enrich the ground.

Probably the smallest estate ever administered in New York has finally been settled after litigation covering several weeks, and, the public administrator has turned, over to the care of the City Chamberlain twenty-five cents to be held subject to the calims of the helms of William Portland, a negro ex-pugilist. To reach this settlement a land development company by which Portland was employed, seeking to get possession of the shanty in which he lived, was compelled to petition the surrogate to appoint an administrator to take charge of the dead man's effects. The administrator found a trunk, clothing and a brass ring, in which was set a large piece of glass. When offered for sale an Italian junk man, attracted by the ring, bought the entire estate for twenty-five cents. Pittsburgh Dispatch.

General Carter Proposes a Reorganization of the Army and Changes, in the Drill—More Officers to Be Used—A Plea For Cantonments, Meaning Villages or Towns of Soldiers Instead of Isolated Garrisons. Major-General William H. Carter, U. S. A., the newly designated Assistant Chief of the General Staff of the Army, has evolved a plan, for the reorganization of the regular army into forty regiments of infantry, twenty regiments of cavalry and six regiments of field artillery, the whole to constitute a mobile army of 60,823 men, exclusive of the Coast Artillery Corps, which will continue as at present, organized into 170, separate companies. The plan of reorganization, as outlined by General Carter himself, appears in The Journal of the Military Service Institution of the United States, published in the interests of the army and National Guard, by the officers of the army on Governors Island. General Carter argues for the creation of regiments of nine, instead of twelve companies, each making possible the organization of divisions of three brigades of infantry, one regiment of cavalry, one regiment of field artillery, and battalion of engineers, one company of the Signal Corps, four field hospitals, one immunition column and one pack train, each division to consist of 12,000 men. Each regiment would consist of 1000 men. "The experience of all our wars," General. Carter says. "shows that American infantry regiments of about 1000 men are easier to maneuver and to supply than larger regiments. The present war strength of a regiment of twelve companies exceeds 1500 men. The consensus of opinion of experienced officers fixes about 400 men as the proper limit for a company containing but three officers on its rolls. To accomplish this reduction in size of regiments and to increase their mobility and consequent efficiency, it is proposed that each regiment of infantry shall consist of nine companies, organized into three battallions of three companies each. A strength of 100 men to each company, together with the non-commissioned staff, band, machine gun platoon of three guns and orderlies will provide 'a regiment averaging about 1000 men." Eliminates Regimental Drill. "The reduction from four to three companies in each battalion makes possible a great reduction and simplification of drill regulations. By applying the principles of regimental drill to the battalion, the regimental drill by command may be entirely eliminated, and regimental" commanders be relieved from committing to memory a number of rarely used words of command. Under this organization it will be only necessary to train and discipline the battalions and then proceed with the division to battle exercises over varied and unknown country. All movements of brigades and regiments would be by direction or previously agreed upright signals, and the battalions would thus be brought to practice in peace under the conditions which will surely confront them in war." General Carter then refers to the scattered condition of a large part of the National Guard, a condition that makes even battalion drill a rare occurrence. His paper also takes up the proper training of that branch of the National defense. "As their," (the National Guard, says General Carter, "proper instruction is of vast consequence, it should be provided in the drill regulations that each infantry company shall be divided into three platoons and the essential elements of company drill assimilated to those of the battalion. By thus harmonizing the company and battalion drills confidence will be instilled into the officers and men and a certain jerkiness, observed in regiments composed or separate companies of the National Guard, assembled at rage intervals, should gradually disappear." The reorganization of the cavalry is next touched upon, the reorganization to follow in general the plans for the reorganization of the infantry, that is, the creation of regiments of nine troops instead of twelve, and present, the strength of the new regiments to be about 1000 men each. The field artillery, if organized under the Carter plan, will consist of six regiments, making it possible to furnish one battery of three field units to each of the forty regiments of infantry. Make-up of a Division. This, therefore, is the organization of each division as contemplated by General Carter: Three brigades (nine regiments, twenty-seven battallions) of infantry, One regiment (nine troops) of cavalry. army. One regiment (one batteries) twenty-seven guns) of field artillery. One battalion of engineers. One company of the Signal Corps. Four field hospitals. One ammunition column. One back train. The proposed geoorganization. General Carter explains, "has nothing to do with the total strength of the army, which the President may from time to time in his discretion recommend to Congress as a part of the military policy of the Nation. Its immediate effect would be the organization of ten regiments of infantry from the surplus companies, remaining after reducing; each regiment to nine companies, the organization, of five regiments of cavalry, from the surplus troops remaining after reducing, existing regiments to nine troops each; the addition of one battery of three guns to each regiment of field artillery, giving nine batteries of three instead of six batteries of four guns each." In concluding his article, General Carter makes it plea for this establishment of division cantonments (villages or towns of soldiers), this country at the present time being the only first-class power that still clings to the system of small isolated garrisons, no provision whatever existing for organizing brigades and divisions, if times of peace. "The time has arrived," General Carter says, "when every consideration of public policy demands that a division cantonment should be established. In event of war such cantonments would be invaluable as places of assembly, for volunteers as soon as the divisions moved to the front. The ease with which new regiments could be equipped and prepared for service at such cantonments would put to shame the large mobilization camps of the war with Spain, where numbers of entrained men were qualified for the pension rolls before they could be got ready for active service. Cantonment, Land in Indiani. "The Government already possesses a splendid nucleus of land for beginninig, the construction of such a cantonment near Indianapolis, Ind., a centrally located and healthful site, tapped by all the principal trunk lines of the Middle West." The existence of such a cantonment would insure the Nation a dilution of about 12,000 men in a fine state of instruction and readiness to proceed to any point in the shortest possible time. "We do not need 'to seek' models for our organization among European States, for their armies are composed of the youth of the nation, conscripted, to begin service, annually at specified periods. Our system of training must be adapted to 'the purely volunteer soldier.' We should therefore draw upon our own experience, 'and' by studying the rough roads traveled by pur for bears, 'in bringing into existence the armies, which have saved the Nation, in days gone by, at a gray cost in blood and treasure, simplify the problem for routine generations." "Under our complex civilization some very trifling question made be made the films pretext for defending more than the temper of our people may be, willing, to concede. We are not a military Nation, but our people are extremely warlike, and therefore liable to force the government into posttiths from which it may be difficult to withdraw without loss of prestige. Our ability to command peace on our own terms must then rest, on our preparedness." It may be added that the adoption of General Carter's plan, would mean the creation of about fifteen new Colonels, "fifteen", Lieutenant-Colonels, forty-five Majors and a number of Brigadier-Generals. One often hears it, said, that there, if no animal, more stupid, than a hen, in vindication of the much-maligned domestic fowl, it seems but fair to relate to true story of a sagacious and affectionate hen. On a farm in Noya Sóctita, there once lived a dear old lady who was blind, she had a love, for all animals, particularly for the mans which were faithfully fed by her hand. One tinyhen became exceedingly fond of its aged mistress, following her about the yard as devoutly as would the household bat. When the old lady fell ill, it was noticed by the family that, little Mr. Hen, was not so likely as of yore. Evidently, she missed the kind hadd that had bourn in the habit of feeding her; and the gentle voice that had softly called, "chick! chick! chuck!" One day, the sick woman, in numbling, among, the bedclothes, came in contact with an egg, and called, the attention of the family to the fact. The mystery was solved next day, when the little hun was seen to enter the dobway, wend her way to the old lady sick room, and perch upon the bed, little little feathered friend pald, visit to her mistress every day, leaving as a token of love and a fresh egg to tempt the falling, appetite of the inyalt. This faithful hen seemed to have had an intuition which the Death Angel fitted the home and home away her beloved, friend, after never again did, she cross, that threshold to the armchair, and shortly, after the decrease of her hilling mistress, she pined and, died, apparently of a broken heart.—Our Dumb Animal.

Story of a $30,000 Lump and Something About the Substance. The story of how a Manchester (N. H.) painter found in the St. Lawrence river a lump of grayish substance weighing thirty-eight pounds, and how he has discovered that the solid fatty stuff is ambergris and is worth $30,000, recalls the nearest thing to romance that ever entered into the lives of Gloucester and New Bedford whalers, in the old days when American whalers dared every sea. It was like a lottery. Once in a lifetime you might chance on the decaying body of a whale, giving off an awful smell, and inside that whale would be a fortune enough so that you would never have to go to sea again. Charles Reade, as far as we remember, is the only writer to introduce ambergris into fiction. In "Love Me Little, Love Me Long," David tells Miss Fountain, how "the skimmer stuffed their noses and ears with cotton 'steeped in aromatic vinegar, and they lighted short pipes and broached the brig upon the putrescent monster and grappled to it; and the skipper jumped on it and drove his spade '(sharp steel) in behind the whale's side fins." It is a matter of record that not far from the Windward islands a Yankee skipper in one of the best old whaling years did cut out of a whale 130 pounds of ambergris, which was sold for £500. The price quoted for many years was $6 an ounce. Ambergris is often found floating on the sea, particularly off the coast of Brazil and of Madagascar. The Bahamas send more than any other source to market. The stuff is a secretion of the sperm whale which dies of the disease producing the perfume matter. Chemists find it hard to account for the fact that the smell of the dead whale is so horrible when the substance taken out is valuable only as a source of sweet smells—Brooklyn Eagle. "Confused and Wrong." Henry E. Dikey, at a dinner at the Lambs, said of an actor, who had failed in a new part: "His idea of the part was so confused and wrong that it reminded me of Ferguson. "Ferguson, you know, awoke one morning after a studio supper—you know what studio suppers are—and groaned and muttered: "Dear me, what a headache!" "He screwed up his lips in disgust. The taste in his mouth was horrible. He thought he'd have a look at his tongue, and, reaching out for the hand glass, he took up by mistake a silverbacked hairbrush. "He stared at the bristles a long while; then he shook his head and said: "Fergy, my boy, you certainly do need a shave."—New York Tribune, An Honest Confession. A well-known divine was preaching one Sunday morning on the subject of "The Great and Small Things of Creation." To illustrate his thought that nothing was either too vast or too tiny to be of interest to God, he proceeded in these words: "The Creator of this immense universe created also the most infinitesimal atom in it. The Architect of these vast mountains fashioned also the tiniest thread of gold running through them. The God who made me made a dalys."—Lippincott's. Not Sudden.

A DETERMINED WOMAN Finally Found a Food That Cured Her. "When I first read of the remarkable effects of Grape-Nuts food, I determined to secure some," says a woman of Salisbury, Mo. "At that time there was none kept in this town, but my husband ordered some from a Chicago traveler. "I had been greatly afflicted, with sudden attacks of cramps, nausea, and vomiting. Tried all sorts of remedies and physicians, but obtained only temporary relief. As soon as I began to use the new food the cramps disappeared and have never returned. "My old attacks of sick stomach were a little slower to yield, but by continuing the food, that trouble has disappeared entirely. I am to-day perfectly well, can eat anything and everything I wish, without paying the penalty that I used to. We would not keep house without Grape-Nuts. "My husband was so delighted with the benefits I received that he has been recommending Grape-Nuts to his customers and has built up a very large trade on the food. He sells them by the case to many of the leading physicians of the county, who recommend Grape-Nuts very generally. There is some satisfaction in using a really scientifically prepared food."

Every man who aspired, to be well dressed wore his-coat so high in the collar that the back of the hat rested on it. This fashion was so prevalent that, according to Sir Algernon West, "every hat had a crescent of cloth on the back of the brim to prevent the rubbing of the beaver or imitation beaver, of which the hat was made, for silk hats were not then invented." And from the same authority we learn that "opera hats were unknown, and in the evening a folding chapeau bras was always carried under the arm.

Toxic Action of Meat Linossier has recently reported to the Academic de Modéne de Paris some interesting experiments with regard to the nephro-toxic action of various meats. By subcutaneous injection of an aqueous extract of hashed meat he has been able to produce albuminuria in rabbits and guinea-pigs. The minimum dose necessary to cause this condition is very variable, even when the same kind of meat is used to prepare the extract, a fact which must be attributed as much to a difference in the renal resistance of various animals as to variations in the toxicity of the meat. Albuminuria appears very quickly after the injection and only lasts a few hours. It is probable that man acquires toleration to the toxic action of meat, but this does not mean that heavy meals can be habitually indulged in with impunity. The accidental and excessive use of meat by a vegetarian would probably be productive of harm, but it is fair to suppose that a regular and properly graduated meat diet would be beneficial to a nephritic—Hospital.

"Technically," said Judge Wells to William Rung in the Municipal Court, "you had the right on your side. However, you chose a form of cruel and unusual punishment that cannot be tolerated by this court I'll have to fine you $1." It appeared from the evidence that Mr Rung, who is a stereotyper, sat down to luncheon with Edward Snider, a fellow-employee. The piece de resistance of Rung's luncheon consisted of limburger cheese, and Snider, who regards himself as something of a wag, had made certain remarks about the cheese, reflecting particularly on its odor. Thereupon Mr. Rung smeared a piece of the cheese over the humorous Snider's countenance. "This," said Rung, as he stepped up to pay his fine, "is the kind of justice that smells to heaven."

My back was so lame and painful I could not turn in bed without assistance, nor raise my arms above my head. I often became so dizzy that I fell. The kidney secretions are dark, thick and scalded.
