Atwater. Thom- aston, and J. H. Taylor, Cordele. Both President Aycock and Secretary Benton made responses. Ths first address of yestsrday's ses slon was that of Pr. Zotpffel-Cjuellen- stein. German consul at Atlanta, and his address proved to.be a finished pro duction on the -tremendous prosperity of the South at this present time, which Is attracting the attention of the entire world. L’rvin concluding his address Dr. Zoepffel-Quellensteln was given one of the moat enthusiastic ovations hf ths convention, many ladles who are now guests of Sweetwater Park hotel adding their approval to this disser tation on ths prosperity of this sec tion. J. A. Aycock, of Carrolltoh, talked Informally on "What n Publicity Bu reau Can Do for the Industry," and fa vored auch an Institution, although It necessitated considerable expense. If* also urged general and diversified ad vertising by the mills and Individuals, as wall as by thp association, to con tend against certain prejudices against the cotton seed products, due In purt to the novelty of this Industry. A. Ransom, of Atlnntn, one of the organizers of the association, fol lowed along the same line. Mr. Raa- som referred particularly to the work accomplished Individually by W. M. Towers, of Rome, whose address on tho opening dny. reviewing some of the ex periments which he made when the Industry was Just developing, was rec- ognlsed on nil still... as .m.' tin- tied and most practical features of the con- \ 1-1111.1.11 A letter read from Secretary Frank Wfcldon, of the Georgia state fair, ask- 11 IK i !,.• ns.oi'hit Inn ii n.l in. ml..

A number of the members advo cated such an exhibit as the moat prac tical and popular way of educating tho people by displaying the finished prod uct* and by having a demonstrator present to explain the many uies of the variety of article,. • A motion, placing the plans and ar rangements for such an exhibit In the hands of the executive committee, was passed unanimously, and It Is expected that the cotton seed products will be one of the features of the great fair next October. Fielding Wallace, of Augusta, read a paper on "TarifT on Prese Cloth," and W. E. McCan, of Macon, made an ad dress on “How to Avoid Reclamations." Both of these addreaaes, while technical In nature, were replete with valuable facts snd practical suggestions sad were enthusiastically Commtnded by all of the delegates present. J. A. Hpurlln, of Little Rock, formerly of Atlanta, spoke Interestingly on the manufacture of denatured alcohol In the Couth and the tremendous future which It made possible to Southern Industries. One of the most interesting papers of the session was that of C. M. King, of Atlanta, on "Cotton Seed Meal as a Human Food." Mr. King told 1 of In teresting experiments which he had made and of the delicious and nutri tious Ingredients of these products. The afternoon nnd closing session proved to be entirely nn experience meeting, excepting the election of of- flers. The beat methods for getting the public to accept, understand and appreciate the cotton seed products, and especially to substitute refined and hygienic cotton seed cooking oils In place of lard, were especially dwelt upon.

They told him •lories about the breaking down of mm, there In the atock yards of Chi os", and of what had happened to them afterwards—stories to make your flesh creep, but Jurgla would only laugh. He had only been there four months, and he was young, and a giant besides. There waa too much health In him.. He could not even Imagine how It would feel to b* beaten. "That l« well enough for men like you," ha would say, "allpnas, puny fellow*—but my back Is broad," * Jurgla waa like a boy, a boy from the country Ha waa the aort of man the boasea Ilka to get bold of, the sort they make It a grievance they cannot set hold of. Wben he waa told to go to a certain place, he would go there on the run. When he had nothing to no for the moment, he would stand tound fidgeting, dancing, with tha over flow of energy that was In him. If he were working In a line of men, the hne always moved too slowly for him, and you could pick him out by hla Im patience and rasttesaness. That was Why he had been picked out on on# important occasion: for Jurgts had Mood outside of Brown & Company's J'entral Time Station" not more than half an hour, the second day of hla arrival In Chicago, before he had been •*e<k"ned by one of the bosses. Of ‘h‘* He was very proud, and It made fl™ more disposed than ever to laugh ** : he pessimist*. In vain would they al1 t»ll him that there were men In that crowd from which he had been cboaeif who had stood there o month—yes. Minton China. i.overs of artistic China ai'c invited to call and see <mr new importations of Minton, Odd and very at tentive arc the design*. Other new China that will | iitt'-rc8t you. Maier & Berfyele, many month*—nnd not been chosen yet. "Yes," he would say, "but what sort of men? Broken-down tramp* and good-for-nothings, fellows who have spent all their money drinking, and want to get more for tt. Do you want ;ne to balleve that with these arms"—and he would clench his fists and hold them up In the air, so that you might see the rolling muscles— "that with these arms people will ever let me starve?" "It Is plain," thsy would answer to this, "that you bav* come from the country, and from very far In the country." And tbla waa the fact, for Jurats bad never seen a city, and acarcaly even a fair-sited town, until he had set out to make his fortune In the world and earn his right to Ona. Hla father. aniT his father's father be fore him, and as many ancestors back aa legend could go, had lived In that part of Lithuania known as Brelovlcs, the Imperial Forest. This Is a great tract of a hundred thousand acres, which from time Immemorial has been a hunting preserve of the nobility. There are a very few peasants settled In tt, holding title from ancient times; and one of these was Antanas Rudkus, who had been retired himself, and had reared hla children In turn, upon half dosan acres of cleared land In the midst of a wilderness. Thar* had been one son besides Jurats, and one sister. The former had been drafted Into the army; that had been over ten years ag<h but sines that day nothing had ever been heard of him. The stater was married, and her husband had bought tha place when old Antapas had decided to go with his son. It was nearly a year and a half ago that Jurgla had mat Ona, at a horse fair a hundred miles from home. Jur gis had never expected to get married —he had laughed at U aa a foolish trap for a man to walk Into; but bm. without aver having spoken a word to bar. with no more than the exchange of half a dozen smiles, be found him self, purple In the face with embar rassment and terror, asking her par ents to sail bar to him for hla wlfa— and offering his father’s two horses he had been sent to tbe fair to sell. But Ona’a father proved as a rock—tha girl was yat a child, and ha was a rich man. and hla daughter waa not to be had In that way. Bo Jurgis went home with a heavy heart, ami that spring and summer tolled and tried Krt to forget, in tbo toM. alMr tb. harvest was over, be eaw that It would not do, and tramped the full fort- nlght’e Journey that lay between him and Ona. He found an unexpected atata of af fairs—for the glrl'e father had died, nnd his estate was tied up with cred itors; Jurats* heart leaped *aa he real- 1 I zed that now the prise waa within his reach. Thera waa Elsblsta Luko- asalte, Teta or Aunt, as they called her, One's stepmother, and there were her six children, of all ages. Thera was also her brother, Jonas, a dried- up little man, who had worked upon the farm. Thsy were people of great consequence, as It seemed to Jurats, fresh out of the woods; Ona knew how to read, and knew many other thing*, that ha did not know; and now tn* farm had been sold, and tha wltple family waa adrift—all they owned In tbe world being about seven hundred roubles, which Is half as many dollars. They would have had three times that, but It bad gone to court, and the Judgo had decided against them, and It had cost the balance to get him to change hie decision. Ona. might have married and left them, but ahe would not, for she loved Teta Etsbteta. It waa Jonas who sug gested that tbay all go to America, where a friend of hie had gotten rich. He would work, for his part, and the women would work, and some of the children, doubtleaa—they would llv# a eon bow. Jurgis, too, had heard of America. That waa a country where, they said, a man might earn three roubles a day; and Jural* figured what three roubles a day would mean, with prices as they were where he lived, and decided forthwith that he would go to America and marry, and be a rich man In the bargain. In that country, rich or poor, a man was free. It was said; he did not hart to go Into the army, he did not have to pay out his money to rascally official*—ha might do as he pleased, and count himself as good as any other man. Ho Amer ica was a place of which lovers snd young people dreamed. If one could only manage to get the price of a passage, he could count hla troubles at an end. • U was arranged that, they should leave the following spring, and mean time Jurat* sold hunertt to a con tractor for a certain time, and tramped nearly four hundred miles from home with a gang of men to work upon a railroad In Smolensk. This was a fearful experience, with filth and bad food and cruelty and overwork; but Jurgis stood ft and cam* out In fine OOOOOOOOOOOOOQOOOOO SYNOP8I3. The story of 'The Jungle,” Upton Sinclair's novel which has 'caused the government In- Investigation Into the method* employed by the beef trust, had ft* origin In an actual Packing- town romance. In Ashland avenue—"back of the stock yards"—tha wadding took place. The first chapter merely shows a broad-shouldered butcher being wadded to a young girl who sees In him a hero. The wedding In all Its grotesqueneaa Is described In this chapter. The wadding cer emony Is typical of Packing- town. At midnight tha formal- lllaa ended. The chapter closes with a de scription of Packlngtown fes tivities and tells how beer It promiscuously passed around. Sinclair portrays In well-se lected word* the dress of tb* denizens of that section. Nearly all of the character* Introduced In the etory are em ployed In the stock yards, and ths prelude, which tell* of their social life, I* td be followed by a story of their toil In the big yards , , (Copyright, 1M<, by Upton Sinclair. All rights reserved.) OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO trim, and with eighty rouble* sewed up In Ms coat. He did not drink or fight, because he was thinking all tb* time of Onaf and for the rest, ba was a quiet, steady, man, who did what he wa* told to, did not loo* hla temper often, anti when he did lose It made tbe offender anxious that he should not lose It again. When they paid him off he dodged the company gambler* Xnd dramshop*, and so thsy tried to kill him; but he escaped, and (ramped It home, working at odd Job*, and sleeping always with on* eye open. Be In iho summer lime they bad all set oilt for America. At the last mo ment there Joined them Marlja Bare- synskas, who waa a cousin of One's. Marlja waa an orphan, and had worked since childhood for a rich farmer of Vllna, who beat her regularly. It was only at tha age of twenty that It had occurred to Marlja to try her strength, when she had risen up and nearly murdered the man, and then come away. There a-ere twelve In all In the party, five adults and six children—and Ona, who was a little of both. They had a hard time on the passage; there was an agent who helped them, but he proved a scoundrel, snd got them Into a trap with some officials, and cost them a good daal of their preclou* money, which they clung to With auch horrible fear. Thla happened to them again In Naw York—for, of • course, *■“ iw nothing about the country, no one to tell them, and It waa easy for a man In a blue uniform to lead them away, and to taka them to a hotel and keep them there, and make them pay enormous charge* to get away. Tha law say* that the rate- card shall be on the door of a hotel, but It does not say that It shall be In Lithuanian. It was In tha atock yards that Jonas' friend had gotten rich, and so to Chi cago ths party waa bound. Thsy knew that on* word, Chicago—and that waa all tbsy needed to know, at least, until they reached the city. Then, tumbled out of the cars without ceremony, they were no better off than before; they stood staring down tbe vista of Dear born street, with Its big black build ings towering In ths distance, unable to realise that thsy had arrived, and wby, wben they said "Chicago," people no longer pointed In some direction, _ but Instead looked perplexed, qr laugh- ° . *d, or went on without paying any at- O , tentlon. They were pitiable in (heir helplessness; above all things thsy stood In deadly terror of any sort of parson In official uniform, and so whenever they saw a. policeman they would cross the street and hurry by. For the whole of Ih* first day they wandered about In the midst of deaf ening confusion, utterly lost; and It waa only at night that, cowering In Ih* doorway of a hoof, they wan finally discovered and takan by a policeman to the station. In Ih# nv.rning an In terpreter was found, anil they were taken and put upon a car. and taught a new word—“etockyards." Their de light at discovering that they were to get out of this adventure without las ing another share of thslr posseaalott*, It would not be possible to describe. They sat and stared out of ths win dow. They were on a street which seernr l to run on forever, mile after mile—thirty-four of them, If they had known It—and each side of It one un interrupted row of wretched little two- story frame building*. Down every aids street they could see, It was the ssms—never a hill and never a hollow, but always the same endless vista of ugly and dirty lltll* wooden buildings. Iter* snd there would be a bridge crowing a filthy creek, with hard- baked mud shores and dingy sheds and docks along It; here and thsrs would be a railroad grossing, with a tangle of switches, and locomotives puffing, and rattling freight cars filing by; here and there would be a great fac tory, a dingy building with Innumer able windows In It, and Immense vol umes of smoke pouring from the chim ney* darkening the air above and making filthy the earth beneath. But after each of these Interruptions the desolate procession would begin again —Ihe procession of dreary little build- loll, A full hour before the party reached the city they had begun lo note the perplexing changes In the atmosphere. It grew darker all the time, and upon the earth the grass seemsd to grow less green. Every minute, aa tb* train sped on, (he colors of thing* became dingier; (he fields war* grown patched and yellow, th* landscape hideous and bar*. And along with the thickening smoke they began to notice another circumstance, a strange, pungent odor. Tbsy were not sure that It was un pleasant, this odort some might hare called It Sickening, but thslr last* In odors was not developed, and thay were only aura that It waa curious. Now. sitting In tha trolley car. they reallzrd that thsy were on thslr way to the home of It—that they bad,traveled all tha way from Lllhunnla td It. It was now no longer something fnr-off oml faint, that you caught In whiffs; you could literally last* tt. as well as smell It—you could take hold of It. almost, and examine It at your leleiir*. They were divided In their opinion* about It. It was an elemental odor, raw and crude; It waa rich, almoet rancid, sen sual and strong. There were soms who drank It In as if it were an in toxicant; there were others who put their handkerchief* to their faces Th# new emigrant* were still testing It. loet In wonder, when suddenly th* car cam* to a halt, and the door was flung open. and a voice shouted—"Stockyards!" They were left standing upon th# corner, staring; down a »ldn street there were two rows of brick houses, and between them a vl*la: half a dozen chimneys, tall n> the tnllest of bulld- Ing*, tombing the very sky—and leap ing from them half a dozen column* nf smoke, thick, oily and black a* night. It might have come from the center of th* world, thl* smoke, where the (Ire* of the age* still smoulder. It rntiir ns If sslf-lmpelled, driving all before It. a perpetual explosion. It was Inexhausti ble; one stared, waiting to *•* It stop, but still tho great streams rolled out. Thsy spread In va*t cloud* overhead, writhing, curling; then, uniting In nn* giant river, they streamed nwny down th# »ky, stretching a blnck pall a* far aa tbe eye could p at > Then the party bo, nine aware nf an other strange thing. This, ton, like the odor, waa a thing elemental; It was a sound, a sound Inaile up of ten thous and lljtl* sound*. You scarcely noticed It at first—It sunk Into your conscious ness, a vague disturbance, n trouble. It was like the murmuring of the bee* In the spring, the whisperings of th# forest; It suggested endless activity, the rumbling* of a world in motion. It was only by an effort that’one could realise that It waa b> ummsis, that It was the distant lowing of ten thousand cattle, the dl-tnnt gttinting of ten thousand twine.
