VOL. XXVI. Seeking to Control the Supply of the Large Cities. ATTORNEY GENERAL ORDERS PROBE Sensational Charges Made That Some Of the Foremost Financiers Of the Country Are Trying To Control the Milk Supply Of the Large Cities To Establish a Monopoly For Manufacture Of Pasteurizing Machinery. Washington, D. C. (Special). Following sensational charges made by officers of the Washington Milk Dealers' Association that a "multimillionaire milk trust" is seeking to control the milk supply of the large cities in order to establish a monopoly for the manufacture of pasteurizing machinery, Attorney General Wickersham ordered an investigation. The charges were made at a hearing before the District commissioners, held in connection with a campaign that is being waged by the milk producers against pasteurization and the turmercilin test. At this hearing Corbin Thompson, the vice-president of the dealers' association, and A. S. Trundle, chairman of the executive committee, charged that an alleged gigantic trust, headed by Levi P. Morton, Thomas F. Ryan and Anthony Brady and including a number of the foremost financiers of the country, sought to control the milk supply in order to sell their pasteurizing machines, and to this end were bringing pressure to bear on the health officers of large cities. At the hearing there were present scientists from the various government departments in Washington and several of them were named as being directly or indirectly influenced by the trust. It was stated that the chief of the New York City Health-Department was removed and an ardent disciple of pasteurization was substituted in the interest of the alleged trust. At the hearing Mr. Rudolph, one of the commissioners, called upon Messrs. Thompson and Trundle to submit specific evidence in support of their allegations. Attorney General Wickersham has directed W. S. Kenyon, an assistant attorney general, to investigate these charges and to call upon Messrs. Thompson and Trundle for any information they may possess to substantiate their charges. The situation in Chicago will be first investigated and after that the question of the milk supply in every other large city will be taken up. It was further charged that the milk inspectors of Washington were incompetent and ignorant. Dealers said that they could prove that tests made at Union Station by local inspectors of milk brought to Washington from Maryland were wholly unsatisfactory and unreliable. The charges against the local inspectors will be taken up by the District Commissioners after the government has investigated the allegations of the multi-millionaire Mink Trust. SPECIALIST IN EDUCATION. Dr. K. C. Babcocks Appointed By Bureau Of Education. Washington, D: C. (Special).—Dr. Kendric C. Babcock, president of the University of Arizona, was appointed specialist in higher education in the United States Bureau of Education. His appointment is in line with the policy of the present commissioner of the bureau of having specialists to study the various phases of education. His salary is $3,000 a year. Dr. Babcock's duties will be to visit institutions of higher education for the purpose of collecting data as to new movements and to furnish information respecting such institutions. He also is to improve and extend the work already done by the bureau. The new appointee is a graduate of Harvard and Minnesota Universities. He has been an Instructor in the New York state schools, the University of California and the University of Arizona, of which institution he has been president since 1903. Second Cuban President Dead. Havana (Special).—Salvador Cisneros, Marquis De Santa Lucia, who was second president of the Cuban republic, died at his plantation, near Neuvilas, from injuries received in falling from his horse this morning. Atlanta, Ga. (Special).—Charles D. Hill., solicitor general of Georgia, died here at 1 o'clock after an illness with which he was stricken in the courtroom on Tuesday. He was 58 years old. SIX KILLED BY AN EXPLOSION Boiler in Cordage Plant Blows Up Employes in Panic. New York (Special).—Six men were instantly killed, two were mortally injured, 12 were hurt more or less seriously and 50 persons, most or them women, were cut and bruised when the boilers of the American Manufacturing Company, at Greenpoint, blew up. The American Manufacturing Company is part of the Cordage Trust. It covers three blocks, from Oak to Milton street, and from West street, seven hundred feet to the East River. There are more than a dozen buildings, all adjoining, and ranging in height from four to six stories. The company employs 2,000 girls and 1,000 men. The boiler-house is a two-story back building at Oak and West streets. In it is a battery of immense boilers. The six killed were in the boiler-house. No one who was in the structure was left alive to tell the cause of the accident. Probably it will never be known. The 3,000 employees had just got to work. Suddenly there was a terrific report that shook buildings blocks away. The boiler-house disappeared in a puff of steam and smoke. Windows in the other buildings of the concern surrounding it were shattered and plaster fell. Instantly there was the wildest panic among the girls and men, many of whom were on the fifth and sixth floors of the structures. There was a rush for stairways and fire escapes. Men and girls fought to reach the street. Many were knocked down and trampled. Some were cut by flying glass. Out on the corner of West and Oak streets the air was filled with flying debris at the time of the explosion. Bricks were hurled a block away. Someone turned in a fire alarm and police reserves were sent. For a time the wild exotement hindered the work of discovering the extent of damage. Then there was a rush for the rulers by the crowd that quickly gathered. Amid tangled steel and heaps of mortar and brick the six dead men were found. The body of Michael Kelley was blown up West street nearly the entire length of the block. Other bodies were hurled nearly a hundred feet. PEARY NOW A CAPTAIN. Arctic Explorer Promoted In the Engineer Corps. Washington, D. C. (Special).—Robert E. Peary, the Arctic explorer, advanced to the rank of captain of civil engineers of the Navy by reason of the retirement on account of age, of Captain U. S. G. White. Peary's leave of absence expires within a few days, but it has not been decided at the Navy Department what his assignment will be. Rear Admiral John B. Milton, of Kentucky, was placed on the retired list on account of age. His last assignment was as commandant of the naval training station at San Francisco. His retirement promotes Captain Albert Mertz to the grade of rear admiral. CORPORATION TAX ALL IN. Amount Collected Is In-Excess Of $27,000,000. Washington, D. C. (Special).—Practically all of the corporation tax, aggregating, in excess of $27,000,000, has been collected by the Treasury Department. The officials declare it was collected with less annoyance and was paid apparently with less reluctance than any other internal revenue tax imposed. Some small amounts are outstanding where claims for abatements are pending, and some foreign companies whose main offices are abroad have refused to pay and have no assets in this country subject to process. MAYOR NOT A CITIZEN. Served Seven,Terms and Now Finds He Is Not Naturalized. Hancock, Mich. (Special)—A. J. Scott, president of the village, and for seven years mayor after Hancock became a city, has just discovered that he is not a citizen of the United States and has made application for naturalization. He was Hancock's first mayor and for many years has been prominent in other official life and in business and fraternal circles in Hancock. Shot From Ambush. Jackson, Ky. (Special)—Matthew Crawford, a prominent politician, distiller and business man, was shot from ambush and instantly killed by four assassins, whose identity has not yet been discovered. Crawford was called out of his home by three men and a woman, and his body riddled with bullets when he appeared in the doorway. SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1910. ABSCONDING BANKER CAUGHT ON BATTLESHIP Leoted and Wrecked Bank at Scranton, Pa. JOSEPH MAJOROS ENLISTED AS MARINE John J. Majoros, Who Looted and Wrecked the Narodny Bank, of Scranton, Pa.. Over a Year Ago, Had Been Trailed Around the World By Secret Service Men Of Bonding Company Before Capture At Charleston, S. C. Scranton, Pa. (Special).—John Joseph Majoros, the absconding banker, who looted and wrecked the Narodny Bank of Scranton, Pa., was arrested on the deck of the battleship Texas in Charleston harbor by Chief of Police Bayl, of Charleston, and secret service men of the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland. Majoros wore the uniform of a United States marine, in which corps he enlisted in his last desperate effort to shake off his pursuers. The whirlwind chase after Majoros, was, in its spectacular features, one of the most thrilling and dramatic pursuits of a criminal that has ever taken place in this country. The arrest of Majoros was due more to the determination of the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland to "get him" than to any other cause. The Fidelity and Deposit Company were on Majoros' bond, and when he looted the Narodny Bank, over a year ago, this company was compelled to make good his thefts. They then commenced a chase after Majoros which never fagged for an instant, and which extended completely around the world. The secret service men of the Fidelity Company were on his track within four days after he had wiped the dust of Scranton from his boots. They followed him to Buffalo and Toronto, where he doubled on them and slipped back to Johnstown, Pa., while the detectives were combing the Canadian seaports. Majoros then darted and squirmed in and out among the cities of the Great Lakes and finally succeeded in completely throwing off his pursuers by quietly enlisting in the United States Navy. When the secret service men of the Fidelity and Deposit Company again picked up the thread of the chase Majoros was on the seas. They followed him to Auckland, New Zealand; Liverpool and Pensacola, Fla., where they again lost him by the extensive re-assignment of thousands of sailors and marines to the various ships. During the last two months practically all of the finest fighting ships of the United States Navy have been at battle practice in the Atlantic Ocean, but on what ship Majoros was stationed was unknown to his pursuers, and inasmuch as the fighting aggregate of all the vessels constituted more than 14,000 men, there was nothing left for the detectives to do but tackle the drudgery of examining the names and descriptions of every sailor in the United States Navy as recorded in the Navigation Bureau in Washington. When the battle practice having been finished the warships scattered for various ports, the detectives also scattered for the various cities which were the destination of the dispersing war vessels. A week ago, however, by a process of elimination, the secret service men of the Fidelity Company were practically certain that somewhere among the sailormen and marines of the battleship Texas Majors would be found. The chief of police of Charleston was thereupon communicated with, and armed with a warrant and an indictment from the District Attorney's office at Scranton, he went on board the battleship, accompanied by the secret service men who had chased Majors around the world. The fighting force of the vessel was paraded and Majors was immediately spotted, standing like a statue in the ranks of the marines. The long and spectacular chase was over, and as the detectives pointed out their man, Majors, without saying a word, collapsed and fell to the deck, his rifle clattering down beside him. TWO FACTORIES DESTROYED. Plants Of Hat and Glue Concerns a Prey To Flames. Danbury, Ct. (Special).—The factory of the American Hatters and Furriers' Corporation in this city, and that of the Connecticut Glue Company, a subaidary concern, were burned, entailing a total loss of about $150,000. The cause of the fire has not been determined. No one was injured, as the fire occurred before the hour for beginning work. BIG FRENCH LINER GOES ASHORE Twenty-two Vessels are Wreck.d or Missing in Hurricane. Key·West, Fla. (Special).—The French trans-Atlantic steamer Louislane, from Havre for Havana and New Orleans, is ashore on Sombrero Reef, about 30 miles east of here. About half of her 547 passengers have been brought here and the others are thought to be not in danger. News of the Louislane's plight and the rescued passengers were brought here by the United States revenue cutter Forward. The steamer struck during the hurricane of Monday. She lies only eight feet out of water, and it will be impossible to float her until her cargo has been jettisoned. Her captain refuses assistance until he can communicate with the owners. The passengers remaining on board and the crew are well. The Forward left here looking for wrecks and came upon the Louisiane. The French liner sailed for this country by way of Corunna, Spain, Las Palmas, Canary Islands and Tenerife, with a general cargo and 547 passengers. When within 50 miles of Havana on Monday and in the teeth of the hurricane, the captain lost control of his ship, which, at 5 o'clock that afternoon, was driven hard upon Sombrero Reef. The cutter found that those on board were not suffering, and taking on as many of the passengers as the cutter could accommodate, sailed for Key West. Pending her return to the wreck those on board will be cared for comfortably. The government tug Massasoit weathered the storm off Dry Tortugas. It reports that the Renecca Shoal lighthouse is badly bent. The Rebecca light and the lights on Loggerhead Island and Tortugas Island are out. The Massasoit sighted three dismantled schooners and two steamers in trouble, the lighthouse tender Mangrove left to relieve the situation at Dry Tortugas. SAFE ON DRY LAND. Walter Wellman and Party Land At New York. New York (Special). — Walter Wellman and his five companions were landed here by the steamship Trent, which picked them up at sea after they had abandoned their dirigible balloon America and failed in the first attempt ever made to cross the Atlantic through the air. A bruised right hand, which Wellman carried in a sling, was the only physical injury that resulted from their long voyage of approximately 900 miles, and a rescue the like of which is unknown to all history. None of the aeronauts expressed regret for the loss of the America. They agreed that it had served its purpose and taught its lesson. All stand ready to renew the attempt as soon as Wellman and his engineers find a way to conquer the difficulties that brought their first trip to its thrilling end, 400 miles southeast of Sandy Hook. Standing on the deck of the Trent, clad in the same suit of khaki he wore when he and his crew launched the America at Atlantic City, Wellman made this statement: "We thought we could not get along without the equilibrator. Now we find we couldn't get along with it. Our plans for the future are indefinite until we find something that will do what we thought the equilibrator would do." TIRE'S BURSTING FATAL. Two Persons Killed and Three Hurt In Auto Accident. St. Mary's Pa. (Special)—Two persons were instantly killed and three others injured near Glen Hazel when an automobile became disabled by the bursting of a tire, turned turtle and rolled down a 20-foot embankment. The dead are: Mrs. J. E. Jackson and her 5-year-old son, of St. Marys. The injured are: Mrs. Francis Hyde, St. Marys, a sister of the dead woman; Miss Charlotte Wilmarth, of New York, and Frank Myers, the chauffeur, of Johnsonburg, Pa. Mrs. Jackson and her son were crushed beneath the heavy machine as it rolled down the steep bank. Mrs. Hyde and the chauffeur are both injured internally and are not expected to live. : Banker and Wife Found Dead. Pensacola, Fla. (Special).—R. A. Bushnell, cashier of the Citizens' National Bank, shot and killed his wife and then committed suicide. The bodies were found in the Bushnell home by officers of the bank. They found the two dead in bed with bullet holes in their heads. Mrs. Bushnell was lying as if in sleep. No motive can be ascribed for the crime. Both were, prominent in social and church affairs. Bushnell's accounts at the bank are said to be in good shape. THE FARMERS OF GEORGIA MAKING PROGRESS P. C. Parks, Agricultural Director at Clark University Addressed Negro Farmers' Institutes. P. C. Parks, farm director of Clark university, has returned from a trip made for the purpose of holding farmers' institutes among the Negro farmers of Georgia, and reports marked progress made by this class of the colored citizens of the state. Probably the most striking portion of his communication, published below, is the point he makes as to the lack of criminal inclination among those Negroes of Georgia who, by following improved farming methods, are building up homes for their families. Among other things he says: In holding farmers' institutes among the Negro farmers of this state, I have been greatly impressed with two things: of the Negroes under 15 years of age who must follow farming as an occupation and who will from the very nature of things fall into this class of inefficient workers, because they are being trained by this same class of unreliable and shiftless farm workers. The environments are such that when we have made one Negro a good farmer, nine have become poor and worthless farmers. The larger part of the work, in changing these environments, must be done by the leaders of the race. We are not going to receive the recognition for which many of our leaders are clamoring until we are able to show to the world that the education which we have is fitting us to take hold of this work in an every day 1. The number of Negroes who ride to church in buggies. At one of these Institutes Chancellor David C. Barrow of the University of Georgia and I went out to see if we could find a one-horse wagon; was not a one-horse wagon to be found on the grounds. I said to him I wish you would call attention to this matter of buying buggies, and in his speech to the institute, Chancellor Barrow stated, "that he went to church in a one-horse wagon for years, using a buckboard as a spring seat, before buying a buggy. It may be good business practice to buy a one-horse wagon on credit, but it would be poor business practice to buy a buggy on credit." I was so much impressed with the truth of this statement that I have been looking for one-horse wagons at the Negro church gatherings ever since, but I do not find them. 2. The Negro cropper and farm laborers do not attend farmers' institutes. At a meeting held in Hartwell, a few days ago, the croppers and laborers were conspicuous for their absence. There has been no systematic effort made to reach and help the Negro cropper and farm laborer, and they do not seem to be increasing in reliability, or in learning better methods of farming. This would not be so serious, if it were not for the fact that in these two classes are found the large majority of Negro farmers in Georgia. Great Majority Croppers. Of the Negroes over 15 years of age engaged in farming in this state there are about 232,000; of this number 229,000, or 77 out of every 100, belong to the cropper and farm laborer class, and what is more serious, a majority Little Things Worth Knowing France took 425,164 pounds out of a total of 678,083 pounds of human hair exported by Japan in 1909. Miss Belle Honan, one of the richest women in Ireland, has given $50,000 to the Cork University for free scholarships. She is a sister of the late Matthew Honan, who gave $225,000 to establish a home for Cork business men who might be in reduced circumstances. Mrs. Frances E. Beauchamp of Lexington, president of the Kentucky Woman's Christian Temperance Union, has announced her candidacy for congress in the Seventh Kentucky district. The principal plank in her announced platform is directed against the liquor traffic. Pineapple juice is excellent for the digestion, also for clearing phlegm from the throat, also for croup and diphtheria. Lord, Hannen was badly-hoaxed on one occasion by a juryman, who pleaded to be excused because he was "deeply interested in a funeral at which it was his desire to be present," says Tik-Bits. "Oh, certainly," was the courteous reply of the judge, and the sad, melancholic-looking man left the court. "My lord," quietly interposed the clerk, as soon as the juryman had gone, "do you know who that man is that you exempted?" "No." "He is an undertaker." Another vocal trouble comes from Hungary, says the Westminster Gazette. There a gramophone dealer has been so annoyed by the singing of the girls in a dressmaker's shop that adjoined his room that he filled one of his instruments with swear words and set it to work when the girls were all assembled at their labors. The defence, that he was only "testing new records" did not save him from having to pay damages to the amount of a sovereign. He would have found it cheaper to buy a parrot. Cork, if 'sunk 20 feet deep in the ocean, will not rise, on account of the pressure of the water. --- of the Negroes under 15 years of age who must follow farming as an occupation and who will from the very nature of things fall into this class of inefficient workers, because they are being trained by this same class of unreliable and shiftless farm workers. The environments are such, that when we have made one Negro a good farmer, nine have become poor and worthless farmers. The larger part of the work, in changing these environments, must be done by the leaders of the race. We are not going to receive the recognition for which many of our leaders are clamoring until we are able to show to the world that the education which we have is fitting us to take hold of this work in an every day sort of way. What I mean is this, our people must be taught to understand that learning to cook a good meal is far more important than learning to play a piano, that the study of cotton and corn roots is far more important, in race building, than the study of Latin and Greek roots, that those of us who have had school advantages must be ready and willing to take hold of the plow, hoe or shovel in order to set an example or to inspire the common laborer of the cotton and corn fields, to do cheerfully an honest day's work, and to do it in 365 days in a year. In fact, the real foundation work in the uplift of our people must be done among the masses on the farm. No amount of veneer or clamoring will alone for these conditions. Dr. C. L. Bonner of the Colored Methodist Episcopal church and presiding elder of the Elberton district, has set the pace, as far as the churches are concerned, in regards to teaching these principles to our people. It is a step forward when a presiding elder in the Methodist Episcopal church will take such subjects in his district conference for discussion as: "What Part of the Farm Should Be Planted to Food Crops?" "Why the City is Interested in Country Life," and "To What Extent Should Cattle and Hog Raising Be Carried On Upon the Average Farm?" Then to have southern white men, such as Judge W. L. Hodges, Hon. A. J. McMullen and other distinguished men to come and discuss these subjects in a frank and helpful way. It shows that we are making progress and some of our readers at least are willing and ready to take.hold of the fundamental things which should be taught our people. A MEMORY SYSTEM.

Peace to all. H. R. BUTLER, Grand Mastet. The Masonle fraternity ts a great guild of stalwart men united into one brotherhood, with the world as their quarry, where with gauge and gavel they are busily engaged in building a temple of caaracter, and with the trowel, spreading the cement of Brotherly love and affection. In the hours of refreshment fhey will be found at the bedside of the sick ‘and dying, ministering to the wants of the widow and orphan, and casting the fragrant acacia sprig into the grave of the departed brother and chanting requiems over his last resting place. And as a pledge to the memory of tae memory of the dead caring for the widow and educating the orphan. The mission of Masonry in the’ world is one of service, service to God and our fellowmnan. Its path is through the green fields of humanity, over arched with charity and kindness, to- ward that house not made with hands, eternal in the heayens.—Jllinois Free- mason. * AN UPLIET TO HUMANITY. | “But the worth of Freemasonry, the glory of Freemasonry, does not chiefly depend upon or grow out of the antiquity of the institution. There ‘is indeed an inheritance from the past enriching Masonic prestige and power. We rejoice that our Masonic institution has been compacted and made strong in the passing of tae cen- turies. We are glad to belleve that thus it’ takes its place among the prominent-social and fraternal forces of the present age, prepared to grap- plo witt this great problem of mod- ern life and to be a helpful power on the side of liberty and law, of right eousness and humanity, as against all the foes that confront them. “It is the purpose of Freemason- ty, the privilege of Freemasonry, to deal with present-time issues and to help in the betterment of humanity today. For this service it has an equipment peculiarly its own, and an opportunity such as was never offered to it before. Out of weakness it has become strong. It has withstood’ bit- ter~persecution. It has been vindi- eated in the popular judgment; and now there is before it an open door through which ft may enter the field of more abundant labors, for love's sake and for humanity's sake, and to fill the *brotheraocd idea’ with a glory and a meaning that can only be fully apyreciated by those who are within its mystie lines."—Masonic Journal. WHAT MASONRY STANDS FOR. Masonry stands unalterably opposed to all evil in motiye or practice. To every form of Bigotry and intoler- ance, It stands as the champion. of the largest likerty, purity and charity of thought and action. I would em- phasize what another has said: “The most hopeless and pitiful condition in auman existence today is that of the man of splendid scholarly, and intel- lectual attainments who is bankrupt in the very essence of true manhood —an all-inclusive love and charity for his fellow man. THE’ ORDER MEANS MUCH. If our order means anything at all, it means much, It means that in our chapter room envy and malice have no place; that we spall rejoice in the good fortune and Wappiness of our sisters and brotaers, and mingle our Years witli those ,of the bereaft and unhappy. It means the charity which “suffers long and is kind.” It 13 not as a rule the greater ills of lite which we bear best. We summon all our strength for a trial.

Lesson for October 30, (Specially Arranged far This Paper.) LESSON TEXT—Matthew 20:1-16. ‘Memory’ verse..13, GOLDEN TEXT—‘She hath dont what ghe-could.”—Mark 14:8. = TIME—Satuyday; April 1, A: D.. 30, the day before the ‘Triumphal Proces ston, is PLACE.—House of ‘Simon the leper, at Bethany, of the Mount of Olives. EXPOSITION.—The place of the supper was Boethany, In the house of Simon the leper: We have met this family twice before this in thelr home. One picture of them is pre- sented to us in Luke 10:38-42. Here we see Martha busily preparing tae meal for Jesus’ entertainment; a busy and anxious housekeéper. This was in the autumn previous to the present occasion. ‘The second picture is presented to us by John (11:20-44.) “Since the first Picture theity brother Lazarus had ‘dfed, and been restored by Jesus; and' although Martha is even more busy than before, yet she is restful and peaceful In Aer work. She js not cumbered with her bustness, nor an- gry with Mary, nor casting reflections on Jesus. She has learned something in the day of sorrow and darkness. She had not lost any of her power to serve, but the manner of, her service has been transformed. Thus_the two sisters each gained something of the virtues of the otier. At the present feast Mary and Mar- tha were each serviig in- the way natural to them. Lazarus sat at the table as a guest with Jesus in whose honor the feast was given. Simon was | at the head of the table. As was cus- tomary in the Orient the villagers | were attracted to look dpon the scene, and see the distinguished guest. ‘There came unto him a woman. ‘This woman was Mary, the sister of Martha and Lazarus. Having an ala- baster box, rather, a cruse or flask. Of every precious ointment, a liquid perfume, more like an oll, as oil of roses, than the thicker compositiona we commonly know as ointment. It was so strong that it filled the whole house with its odor. Anointing the head of a rabbl at such ‘feasts was not‘ an unusual hon- or; but anointing the feet was un- usual, and expressed the tenderest, most humble, most reverential, un- utterable affection, Mary not’ only anointed Jesus, but sie took “wom- an’s chief ornament” and devoted it to wiping the travel-stained feet of her teacher. She devoted the best she had to even the least honorable service for him. John says that “the house was filled with the odor,” as m- deed the church and the world have been filled with the qdor of this lov- ing deed. The act was even_better than fer thought, It was hef-last tribute of affection. “Jesus was at a crisis of his life when it was of the utmost value to him to know that he had won @ place in a human heart.” The story has been told in every known tongue, and is now being re- lated in more than four hundred dif- ferent languages to every great na- tfon on the earta. _ J.

THANKS—CALL AGAIN Office Phone 676 WIT and HUMOR The Limit The newest "mean man" story: In a western county of Kansas the dead body of an unknown man was recently discovered. In his pockets they found $100 in bank notes and a big revolver. "What about it?" asked the innocent one. "You would expect that they'd have used that in finding his relatives, or, failing in that, have given him a decent burial, now, wouldn't you " "Sure." "Well, they didn't" is the answer. "They arranged his dead; body before a justice of the peace for carrying concealed weapons and fined him $100 and buried him in the Potter's field."—Kansas City Journal. In Nebraska "What is all that racket?" asks the managing editor of The Commoner. "I understand," explains the proofreader, "that the populace is cheering madly for an eminent faunal naturalist." "Humph!" says the managing editor "That's all the credit I get for staying at home and swatting files instead of going to Africa and depleting the visible supply of elephants." And he engulfs another cockroach in the paste pot, while from the dim distance the hoarse cheers of the assemblage continue to reverberate.—Chicago Post. A Lawn Barber. A major in a certain regiment has a great contempt for incapacity of any kind and is somewhat impatient. A sergeant complained to him that he could get no man to undertake the duty of barber to the company. "Is there no gardener in the company," asked the major testily. "See if you can find one and send him to me." The man was duly sent, but, on receiving orders to act as barber, ventured to expostulate. "Great guns!" cried the major, "if you can cut grass you can cut hair. Go and do it."—Oakland Tribune. Folled. He was very bashful and she tried to make it easy for him. They were driving along the seashore and she became silent for a time. "What's the matter?" he asked. "Oh, I feel blue," she replied. "Nobody loves me and my hands are cold."

Standing by the entrance of a large mansion in the suburbs of Edinburgh are two big dogs carved out of granite.

"Whenever they bark, sir," was the quick reply—Scraps.

Natural Error. At a banquet in New York, Canon Henson, according to the Washington Star, describing the old dress of English bishops, said: "The bishop of Bath and Wells had been visiting Scarborough. On the way to the train he lost his reckoning and stopped a boy. "I say, my lad, how far is it to the station? he asked. "About a mile straight ahead," said the boy. Then, staring at the bishop's knee breeches and silk stockings, he added: "What's up? Somebody swipe your bike?" The One Weak Spot. "You ought to have your car equipped with demountable rims," said an automobile man to Richard C. Jenkinson the other day. "All you have to do is carry an extra rim with inflated tire. In case of a puncture it can be easily attached by a twelve-year-old child in two minutes." "Yes," said Mr. Jenkinson, "but the trouble is always to find the twelve-year-old child."—Newark News.

NEGROES IN NORTH CAROLINA Stirring Account of Their Progress is Given by C. N. Hunter—Found in Most all Lines of Commerce. At the recent session of the National Negro Business league, Mr. C. N. Hunter, corresponding secretary of the North Carolina Negro Business league, read an account of the progress of the Negroes in his state. "Increase in 9 years ... 518,416 "Assessed value of Negro property in Durham county in 1900 ... 181,116 "Assessed value of Negro property in Durham coun- "In some respects Narth Carolina stands out pre-eminently above every state in the union in the success attained by Negro genius in the business world. There are three silk mills in this state run entirely, by Negro labor, one being owned by Negro capitalists. There are two hosery mills run entirely, by Negro labor, one being owned by Negro capitalists. These mills alone employ nearly one thousand operatives. The state offers splendid opportunities for the inauguration of other manufacturing enterprises which, under prudent management, will prove as lucrative as those now in existence. A shirt factory for overalls could be made not only profitable, but immensely so. They are among the possibilities of the near future. Agricultural Progress. "In all sections of the state are to be found Negro farmers who are not only doing well, but many who have attained wealth. The number is being enlarged year by year. They are harvesting and marketing from ten to three hundred bags of cotton each per year besides a corresponding yield of other crops. In addition to this some have erected cotton gins and are extensive dealers in cotton seed. Others have saw mills and are large dealers in lumber. Others have engaged in stock raising and are breeding high-class horses and cattle. Others still have opened large mercantile houses and are doing a fine business. There is also great improvement in the home life and surrounding of our farmers. They are building nice houses and are making attractive homes. This is all highly encouraging and protends future conditions the most gratifying. Negro Property Holdings. Negro Property Holdings. Another evidence of the growth of the race is to be found in the rapid increase in the assessed value of its taxable property.

Decoration is the weakener of wit. 518,416 "We have a number of prosperous insurance companies in the state employing a large number of agents, inspectors, superintendents, stenographers, typewriters, clerks and managers. They seem to be doing a splendid business. "There are three banks in the state located at Kingston, Durham and Winston-Salem. They are answering a large need and are inculcating the habit of systematic economy and saving. They seem to be under wise direction and are safe." "Many building and loan associations are in successful operation in most of our towns. These are lending great stimulus to the accumulation of property. They enable their members to purchase homes and pay for them in easy weekly or monthly installments. Many Negroes also carry stock in white companies. THE ADVANTAGE OF ORGANIZATION. "It took the Negro just forty years to realize the importance of organization, and even now many of us are skeptical and suspicious of each other but not so much as we were just after the war. It was said, not many years ago, that the Negro people recognized no leader among their people, and that if they had a leader they would not follow him. Much of this was true some few years ago, but time has changed, and the new Negro has also changed. He is learning to follow as well as lead, and he is also seeing the tremendous advantage in organizations, thanks to such men as Booker T. Washington and Dr. John A. Kenney, and many others who are recognized leaders by their people. We speak in particular of Mr. Washington and Doctor Kenney because they are leaders of two distinct different organizations; the former the ambodiment and life of the Negro Business league, and the latter the moving spirit of the National Medical association of which Doctor Kenney is the general secretary, is to promote the scientific attainment of the Negro doctor, dentist and pharmacist. Both organizations are doing splendid work along their respective lines, for the betterment of the Negro people in particular; and the country generally. The recent meeting of the Doctors' convention in Washington brought together the greatest number of scientific men and women of Negro birth that ever assembled at one time in the history of this country."—Providence (R. I.) Advance. The latest report from the hop market is that everything is dull and lifeless. Only a few years ago the hop crop was a great item in Oregon, Washington, California and New York. The New York Brewers' Journal said recently: "No matter what laws may be made to cripple the beverage industries of the present time, they can not and will not be observed by those managing those industries." Many saloons have been closed in the worst districts of Honolulu. The prominent citizens celebrated the closing by giving the boys and girls a mammoth plenic with plenty of pink lemonade. Governor Shallenberger of Nebraska declares that if the legislature passes a county option law he will sign it. Out of 245 counties in Texas 163 are dry and parts of 63 others are without saloons. Over 1,999 saloons were closed during the last part of 1909 in that state. The latest tactics on the part of the liquor dealers is to embarrass if possible every anti-saloon business man in his relations to the bank with which he does business. Washington, Ohio, was the first large town in that state to close up the saloons. It has been on a big boom ever since, and is progressing rapidly in every way.

NEED MONEY FOR GOOD WORK Plans of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. What "A Million for Tuberculosis from Red Cross Seals" will do in providing some of the 275,000 beds needed at once in the United States for consumptives, is explained in a recent bulletin of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis. There is just about one bed for every ten indigent consumptives, and if all tuberculosis persons in the country are counted, both rich and poor, hardly one for every 25 or 30. If sufficient hospital accommodations are provided only for those who are too poor to pay the full price for their treatment fully 275,000 more beds in special institutions for tuberculosis will be needed at once. The immense outlay necessary to provide and maintain so many beds in hospitals, makes it imperative, the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis declares, that such institutions be erected from public money, either municipal, county or state. In order to get appropriations for public hospitals for tuberculosis, agitation is necessary, and in order to create a campaign of agitation, organization is demanded. But in order that an organization may carry on an effective campaign, funds are needed. These funds it is proposed to secure in as many communities as possible from the sale of Red Cross seals. The Spots Disappeared. Mrs. Dolan lived in a district which was not as favorable for the outdoor household experiments recommended by the Ladies' Helper as it might have been. This fact Mrs. Dolan was rapidly assimilating, and in a manner not so uncommon as it might be she blamed the estimable periodical for her difficulties. "I wish I had a holt o" that woman that runs the 'Handy Hints' department," she remarked to her husband one morning after an early excursion into the back yard, whence she returned in high dudgeon. "I tought you tought she was a grand wan," said Mr. Dolan, cautiously testing his cup of tea. "Well, I've changed me mind, as I've the rights to do," replied his wife. "She said to put body on thim stains in the tablecloth, and Iave it out overnight on the line, an' they'd be gone entirely whin morning come. Sure'tis the tablecloth that's gone—the de-saving woman that she is!"—Youth's Companion. A Logical Landlord. Many a tenant will sympathize with the man in this story, from the Philadelphia Record. He was renting a small house which the landlord had refused to repair. One day the owner came to see him. "Jones," he said, "I shall have to raise your rent." "What for?" asked Jones, anxiously. "Have taxes gone up?" "No," the landlord answered, "but I see you've painted the house and put in a new range and bathtub. That; of course, makes it worth more rent." WISE WORDS. A Physician on Food. A physician, of Portland, Oregon, has views about food. He says: "I have always believed that the duty of the physician does not cense with treating the sick, but that we owe it to humanity to teach them how to protect their health, especially by hygienic and dietetic laws. "With such a feeling as to my duty I take great pleasure in saying to the public that in my own experience and also from personal observation I have found no food equal to Grape-Nuts, and that I find there is almost no limit to the great benefits this food will bring when used in all cases of sickness and convalescence. "It is my experience that no physical condition forbids the use of Grape-Nuts. To persons in health, there is nothing so nourishing and acceptable to the stomach, especially at breakfast, to start the machinery of the human system on the day's work. "In cases of indigestion I know that a complete breakfast can be made of Grape-Nuts and cream and I think it is not advisable to overload the stomach at the morning meal. I also know the great value of Grape-Nuts when the stomach is too weak to digest other food. "This is written after an experience of more than 20 years, treating all manner of chronic and acute diseases, and the latter is written voluntarily on my part without any request for it."

This is a signal honor for Mr. Lewis, who has been assistant district attorney at Boston, for the past ten years. Mr. Lewis is a Southerner, but is now residing in Massachusetts. Ir is reported that the President and Postmaster General Hitchcock attempted to call off Mr. Capers' lily white convention in South Carolina, but the latter scorned their interference. Mr. Capers will have a happy time forming a white Republican party in the south State. EVER though the colored Republicans, especially of the South, have not been given the square deal by the administration, yet we advise our voters to rally to the support of the party in the election next month. It is especially hoped that the colored Republicans in East Tennessee will stand by Congressman Austin and do all that they can in having him returned to Congress. Mr. Austin has proven his friendship to us in more ways than one and is deserving of unstinted support. We appeal to our people to patronize unstintingly those merchants who advertise in our columns. THE TRIBUNE will not insert an advertisement that can not be recommended to the public. We have always refused the advertisement of "catch-penny" matter and try to keep our columns free from obnoxious advertisements. We do not cater to whiskey and barroom advertisements, etc. We can therefore command strongly those that appear in our columns. We are also compelled to refuse a number of advertisements because certain merchants are not inclined to give us our price. The claim is generally made that similar ads can be inserted in other colored papers at less than half of our rates. THE TRIBUNE can not afford to charge a rate less than the cost of issue or in keeping with its circulation and standing as a journal. Above all, its management have two great a care for the maintaining of proper journalistic reputation. AND still John Arthur Johnson continues in the lime light. Tis true that he was defeated Tuesday in his attempt at Sheepshead Bay to wrest the speed honors from his white competitor but could we have expected any other result when we take into consideration the fact that he was pitted against one of the oldest, shrewdest and most expert drivers in the automobile world. So rather than look upon this defeat in an ignominious light, suppose we view the matter from an impartial stand point and say that it was simply the inevitable result of a contest in which inexperience was pitted against experience; where amateurism was placed; against professionalism. With longer experience and wider knowledge of the racing game, we are forced to believe that Jack Johnson will not only do himself credit, but will also add new laurels to the achievements of the Negro race. Now that a public library for Negroes on elaborate scales is a certainty, we have much to look forward to. All that is needed now is cooperation on the part of every Negro in this town in the struggle to raise enough money to purchase a site which will be in keeping with the beautiful building which Mr. Carnegie's donation, coupled with the aid of the city, will allow us to erect. That we are sadly in need of such an institution here in Savannah goes without saying, and we are going to get together a sufficient amount of money, and that too within a very short time to show our appreciation of the interest which has been taken in us by this great philanthropist and our city. It will not mean much, but just a little concerted action, with all pushing in the same direction, will soon put this matter on a sound working basis. A new era in the musical life of our people in this city was begun last Wednesday night at the introductory appearance of the Savannah Choral Club. In every possible aspect the entertainment afforded us on this occasion was by far the best that Savannah has ever had the pleasure of listening to. In character of high class music it has never been equalled here and will long stand as a fitting and appropriate beginner to the good work this musical organization is going to give us. And what was none the less commendable than the program was the large attendance in face of incomparable, odds. It simply shows that the Savannah public knows a good thing when put before them and will show their appreciation of the same by turning out in full force. We have some of the finest talent in the south among us and all that is through a chance to bring it out and we hail with delight and hearty approval the work of this musical organization which will, in the future, bring before us all that musical genius which has remained neglected for such a long time. To comment on any particular phase of Wednesday night's concert is impossible, for the whole affair was a credit to Savannah and an expression of hearty appreciation of the gentleman who was its chief performer and who stands today as the greatest master of the violin we possess. THE TRIBUNE extends its congratulations to the Savannah Choral Club and hopes for the society unbound success. The act of administering first unto the needs and wants of those nearest us and then looking abroad for places to do good seems to have long since disappeared from the program of the Christian church in the United States. It's an honorable, worthy and altogether necessary thing to take the gospel into lands afar and spread the word of God to the isles of the sea. And we should not in the least discourage the diffusion of Christianity for anything, but it does seem essential that we first get our own homes in order, for America is far from being a perfect land and can stand a great deal more missionary work among her own people than is now being done. There are places here in this beautiful land of ours that are as devoid of uplifting influences as the darkest spot of the dark continent. There are those among us who are as thoroughly lacking in the practice of principles of Christianity as will be found in the barbaric islands of the Pacific ocean. And we do not have to go a thousand miles from Savannah to find such places either, or strain our eyesight in the perusal of our daily newspapers for convincing evidence of there being a direful need of more effective church work among both blacks and whites. Not that kind of work that will teach the blacks to praise God by simply opening their mouths in song and throwing their arms in demonstration of the entering into their hearts of the Holy Ghost, but that kind of religion that will teach them to accept God by following his teachings through the week as well as on Sunday. Not that kind of religion that will teach the whites to parade to church on the Sabbath and Lynch Negroes on Monday, but that kind of religious training that will enable them to live lives in keeping with the true spirit of Christianity. Verily do we concur with Bishop Morrison in his views on missionary work would add that not only missionary work among the Negroes, but also among the whites be taken up. He said that while speaking at the Protestant Episcopal Convention in Cincinnati: "I would impress upon those interested in missionary work my belief that there is more of a field for good, advantageous work among the Negroes of the United States than among the people of foreign countries, and I will urge that missionary work begin at home." The Bishop of California to Preach at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church The Rt. Rev. W. T. Nichols, Bishop of California will preach at St. Stephen's Church tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. A cordial invitation is extended to the public in general. F. B. B. Church. F. B. B. CHURCH On Sunday morelong there was quite a large crowd at church. Rev Small preach an interesting sermon. The choir sang "Come Home" Rev Wright led the hymn "Amazing Grace" The candidates were gotten ready for baptism. The communion services were very impressive and largely attended. At night Rev Wright read for the lesson 74 Ps 123. The seating capacity of the church was taxed to accomo- THE EDITOR Rev. Dr. D. Augustine Reid In selecting Rev. D. Augustine Reid, B. D., D.D., of Philadelphia, Pa. to lead them we feel certain that the Second Baptist Church has done well. Dr. Reid is a man of very wide experience and thorough knowledge. His work has been of a very varied character for he is teacher, doctor and preacher all combined. So the people of the Second Church will be unique in being able to boast of a man of such sterling qualities and characteristics as Dr. Reid possesses. He is an able man coming to an appreciative people. Rev. Reid was born in Kingston, Jamaica, British West Indes, and completed his college course at Calabar College under English professors. His connections with the States began in 1891 at Philadelphia, shortly after which he entered Richmond Theological Seminary. After graduating in 1894 he received an appointment, to the Principalship of Spiller Academy. date the large crowd that attended. The distinguished guests of the church were the "Southern Aid and Social Club and Pilgrim Travelers of S C. The history of the former was given by the secretary and of the latter by the president. Rev Wright gave them, a hearty welcome. Rev Wright's subject was "John the Baptist and Herod." The sermon was eloquent and evidently enjoyed by all. The choir sang "Far Away" Rev Wright readingly invited those who felt the need of prayer to the mercy seat. A large crowd bowed. Prayer was offered in their behalf. The leaders of the societies expressed themselves as being much pleased with the services. They contributed very liberally to the church, pastor, sexton, choir and the poor. The children have an interesting program for next Sunday morning. Come down. St. Benedict's Church. East Broad and Gaston Streets. Oct. 30, 24th Sunday after Pentecost. First mass at 7 a.m. with a short instruction. Second mass at 8 a.m. High mass and sermon at 10:30 a.m. Sunday school at 4 p.m. Rosary, sermon and benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at 8 p.m. The morning sermon will be preached by Rev. John A.

Next Tuesday Nov. 1st, will be All Saints Day, a Holiday of obligation; every Catholic is bound to hear mass and abstain; much as he had held his devotional work. On that day the Catholic Church homes all the Saints in heaven and imposes their protection.

The names of all the families that wish their dead to be remembered on All Saints Day, will be read out at the last mass. Next Sunday the November number of St. Benedict's Messenger will be ready and may be procured at the office. It is most interesting and explains the meaning of All Saints Day and of All Souls Day. And also the great solemnity of the Forty Hours Devotion; the church notes are of special interest. St. Mary's Aid Society will give a festival at Moreshe's Hall, on Wednesday Nov. 16. A nice little invitation card will be sent to all the members of the Society and their friends. The admission will be 25c for single tickets and 35c for double tickets. The committee of young ladies promises to make the event a most enjoyable one. Mt. Zlon Church. The services on last Sunday were splendidly carried out. The lessons which were taught through the sermon of the pastor, on Sunday morning were well taken and of much benefit to the hearers. The attendance was good and they donated liberally. The communion services on Sunday before last were well attended and quite an enjoyable afternoon was spent at the sacramental table. The holy bread and wine were administered unto us by the pastor. Through the wise providences of God there were three added to the church on last Hampton, Va. During the same year he was ordained to the ministry and while serving at this institution was called to the First Baptist Church of Clifton Forge, Va. Here he remained eight years and was subsequently called to Philadelphia where he was given the pastorate at Enon Tabernacle Baptist. Church, Germantown, which position he has just resigned to take up his work in Savannah. Dr. Reid is a constant student, keeping abreast with the times and always trying to impart something new to his people. In short he is one of the few all round progressive men the race possesses, with preaching a his forte. He has well and ably prepared himself along other lines and is fully able to administer not only to the spiritual side of life but can also give the most advanced assistance along medical lines as he is a registered and highly recommended physician. Sunday. Every Sunday is a big day with us so come out tomorrow and see what we have prepared for you. Notice how very busy our newly elected ushers are kept in filling the seated capacity of the church. You are welcome at all times. Our weekly meetings are as interesting as those of Sunday.

Rev Editor SAVANNAH TRIBUNE. Please give me a little space in your valuable paper to say a word about the above named district. In the great Quarto-Centennial rally of Morris Brown College which was pulled off on the 6th inst., in Atlanta at Big Bethel A M E Church, the thirty presiding elders who make up the Episcopal Cabinet of the Sixth Episcopal District under the leadership of Bishop C S Smith, that born leader of men, all answered the roll call, and made their reports. Gun after gun was fired, beginning at Fort Screyen, Savannah District, then the West Savannah District, and on and on until the last gun belched forth her charge. When the smoke cleared away it was seen that the men on the Atlanta District, the Ecclesiastical Fort McPherson, had captured the prize in putting on the table for education $1400.00, $293.00 more than any other district in the State, and Dr. Branch, the courageous leader and captain of this district was awarded a gold medal and a gold watch and chain. Never before has the Atlanta District taken her rightful place, but because of her general she now stands at the head of the column. Dr Branch, has therefore been crowned the financial King of the A M E church. Truly this was a mighty stride toward the top of the hill and the Georgia regulars have set the pace for all others to follow in making an offering to Morris Brown College of $29,500.00, for education, this being a gift purely from Negro men and women. Thanking Him who giveth us all things richly to enjoy, Methodist.

Most men who are doing things in this country today are tailor dressed men. They are not ashamed to be seen anywhere—to stand up for the most critical examination. They know that ready-made clothes can only properly fit one man out of a hundred and they don't want to be one of the ninety-nine others. Stop to think: has another man's suit ever fitted you, no matter what's his size? Didn't the collar stand off at the neck? Weren't the sleeves too long or too short, the back too tight, or didn't the trousers look wrong? How can you expect, then, to be satisfied with such a suit even if new. On the other hand, the merchant tailor not only fits every measure, but you have the opportunity of preserving your individuality and suiting your personality in every particular. Do yourself justice. Have your suit tailored to order. Use good material. You will appreciate it as long as you have it. Drop in and see our 20-22 W. STATE ST. For more than a dozen years the dream of the Manager of the Union Mutual Association Has been to inspire Confidence in, and bring respectibility to NEGRO INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE, which does not only cause This Company to handle more than a million dollars annually, but they have made it possible for other similar concerns operated by our people in the South, to do a successful business, which was once controlled absolutely by another race.

There {s a crying need in the’ city ef Richmond for gome method * or mieans to put an end to youthful im morality—youthful obstreperousness Boys at the age of twelve are men Girls at the age of twelve are wom en, and grown up old men and women recognize these midgets as men and women, We were walking along the street the other day and saw a little girl coming up the street. ‘The girl was of robust physique and in short skirts, She was, to: appearance, a wellraised ciaild and we considered her as such, Coincidentally, she turned into the same street In which we turned. Before us, going in the opposite direction, were two young men, apparently of good raising, well- dressed and comely lads they were. But thelr conduct belied their looks. This fact, their language to the child- woman attested. The conduct of the trio was such as would pain the aeart of any students of conditions as re- late to our race. Now possibly, all three of, these children—for ‘children they would have, in other days than these, been considered—may have been saved to the race if some means of restraint had been Drought to béar to have impressed them of the folly of taeir way and the ultimate end of thelr cultivated methods. Now, this is but one illustration | of what really exists in this and other cities. It is a shame that should be publicly condemned by all decent people, that grown-up men hang around and “chin” little girls who, of a right should at the time be knecling by the knees of their motaers saying their “Now I lay me down to sleep.” SBC FESL OL SG, SOF WHICH TEC UISt was made.” Dr, Johnson zaid: “Every man fs 2 rascal when he is sick,” meaning, 1 Presume, in the vernacular of those days, that the sick man has a ter- dency to be so absorbed in himself as to have a mean disregard for the tights of others. “ Such a statement, while somewhat extreme, yet hinges on a great truth which is that making the most of life is possible only as good health makes it Bo. It is a sad fact that often tae bet- ter ends of life are defeated through defects of health. The word “bilious” has a mental as well as a physical meaning, simply because of the inseparableness of that form of indigestion known as bil- fousness from that mental condition known as melancholia, and thus go hand in Rand a sluggish liver and a sluggish mind. ‘The sound mind needs its sound body for its best work and life loses much not only in lengta, but in qual- ity by imperfect heaith, hence lessen- ing its social value. ‘Through courage of a high order many invalids have succeedtd in liy- ing lives of a high quality, and he is indeed a hero who though enduring mich yet strives on and accomplishes silently without a murmur.

Self- control is the root of all great charac- ter, Strong drink may not be much of a temptation to theboy or girl in the Sabbath school class, There miay be, however, other indulgencies less threatening in themselves, but quite as perilous in ministering to the tem- per of self-gratification and self-will. People who have never acquired the hardihood of self-denial are power less in the presence of strong tempta- tion. Trust the devil to xf a man's weak point.

But the men are not alone to be con- demned. For the women, too, lne up with boys yet in their “teens” and allow, them privileges that even men should not be allowed. They make of these boys men ‘aforetime, and thus issue them into avenues which bring senflity to youth and conse quently, sterility of age—a fine -pro- cess of murdering both the present and future generation, or placing upon the latter the brand .of imbecil- aty_and worthlessness. ‘Under these conditions the race cannot develop into men and women, strong of character and of mind, nor powerful of body. This should be a matter of grave concerm to every Ne- gro who has the future of the race at heart. Parents should place the “lid” down tighter upon their calldren. They should restrict their outgoings and their incomings. They should reg- ulate “thé conduct of the youth with the old-time regulator. They should be careful of the company their chil- dren keep, Tals should be the point through which a social divisfon should be drawn . Privilege should be based upon. worth in morals and fet upon color or creed. For that people will most effectually inherit the, earth who, in protection of the virtue of their women and of thetr boys and girls, build the stronges fences.

It is every man’s duty to so take care of himself that he may\live, not only better, but long into the period hee the frultage is prime, and it is the duty’ of the state to foster and husband life as its most benign herl- tage, throwing around it every possi- ble safeguard.
