Blount, Who Was on Bench in
Philippines.
Former Federal Judge James H.
BloUnt, who ha* recently returned from
his post In the Philippine*, addressed
ths members of the legislature at the
cupltol Monday night oa the subject of
self-government for the Philippines.
Judge Blount made some startling
statements In regard to native condi
tions and during the evening link oc
casion to score the present administra
tion and Its policy toward the Inhabi
tants of the Islands, une of the most
Important statements he made wee
when he declared that the Filipinos arc
perfectly capable of self-government
and should be given the same rights
and privileges allowed to the Cubaos.
The speaker quoted that plank of
the platform adopted by the lest Dem
ocratic nations! convention In regard
to the Philippine policy of the party.
Pledged the Democrats to give
Independence to the islands when th'
were In a position to take It.
"And." continued Mr. Blount. "If Iht
Democratic (tarty agnl% so declares In
the national convention of 1*08, and
carries the country In the presidential
election of that year, those rock-ribbed
and ancient shores of Asia will bthold
an Independent republic lifting Us
head from the depths of the China sea
before this country Is a decade older."
He referred to the possibility of Bry
an’s nomination and election, and •*-
pre.sed himself aa heartily In favor
of It.
Judge Blount referred to the Bacon
resolutions, and stated that had terv
been passed by the senate when the
Paris treaty was ratified In lit! the
outbreak of lift would have been «fe-
venttd.
The gravest charge which was
brought against the administration by
the a|ienker was that the local constab

banditti are pursuing the same policy
of reconrentratlon which made Wey
let's name a word of hatred and re
proach In Cuba lit 1S97, and by this
means thousands of Innocent people
are subjected to the grossest outrages
and the loss of their property without

•There Is nothing that tends to
spread contagious disease more than
kissing,” said Dr. Goodrich. "A per
son may have all kinds of germs In
his system, and upon klaatng an
other party iranainll these disease ma
kers.
"People have always kissed and will
continue to do so, but kissing should
be prohibited by law. The records
prove that kisses transmit as much
disease as mosquitoes. No matter how
much young people or marired pc
love each other, they should never kiss.
If they must do It, never kiss on the

’’Another thing which should never

THE FIRST AUTHENTIC PICTURE
OF MARIE CORELLI, AUTHORESS
■ mm
First authentic portrait of Marie Corelli, which the English author
furnished for her latest novel, but would not permit English newspaper*
to reproduce.
Hpeclnl Csble—Copyright.
London, Aug. 14.—The long drawn
nut tight which Mies Marie Corelli has
been making to protect her personal
modesty and at the same time not In
terfere with the publicity of her Action,
has taken a,new turn with the publlcu
(Ion of her latest book, ”T(ie Treasures
of Heaven,” which has just been given
to the booksellers. ,
At last shs ho* condescended, at the
special request of the publishers, Ar
chibald Constable A .Co., to allow a real
photograph of herself to*go before the
public. It appears ah the frontispiece
of the new book, which Is her sixteenth.
Even more- surprising, as a bit of
vanity, Is the "author’s note,” which
goes with the frontispiece In the Eng-
Ish edition of "The Treasures of
Heaven.” She declares that u portrait
of herself was taken In the spring of
this year and she explains her reel
ings about It.
Mist Corelli on Physiognomist.
"I am somewhat reluctant," the
rites, "to seo It so placed, because It
has nothing whatever to do with the
story, which Is told In the following
pages, bsyond being a faithful likeness
of the uutllbr, who Is responsible for
this and many other previous books
which huve had the good fortune to
meet with a friendly reception from
the rending public. Moreover. 1 am not
quite able to convince myself i*.at ipy
pictured personality can hijve any in
terest for my reudeis, as It ligi al
ways seemed to me that an author’s
real being Is more disclosed tn hi* or
her work limn in any portrayed pre
sentment of mere physiognomy.
"But, owing to the fact that various
rose, and 1 think 1 may say libellous,
.ictltlous misrepresentations of me
have been freely and uuwarrantedly
circulated throughout Great Britain,
the colonies and America by certain
lower' sections of the .pictorial press,
which, with a zeal worthy I a I,'Her
and kinder cause, have striven by this
means io alienate my- readers from
me. It appears to my publishers ad
visable that an authentic likeness of
myself, as 1 truly am today, shuu'.d
now be Issued. In order to prevent any
further misleading of the public by
fraudulent Inventions."
Then Mies Corelli tells how she con
cealed her identity from the London
photographers for whom she posed, by
using the name’of a "lady friend” and
having the various proofs tijnt to her
uddress.
Snapped at an Ordinary Person.
"That I thus elected to be photo
graphed as an unknown rather than a
known person,” Miss Corelli explains
further, "was In older that no extra
pains should be taken In my behalf,
but that I should be treated just as an
ordinary stranger would be treated,
with no leaa, but at the same time cer
tainly no mors cars."
"For tbe benefit of those who may
feel any. rurther curiosity on the sub
ject,” Miss Corelli writes that no tor-
traits In any way resembling her have
been published, anywhere, with the ex
ception or a picture taken In her own
house by an unmteur photographer.
This remarkable "note" ends thus:
"My objection to this sort of ’pict
ure popularity’ has already been pub
licly slated, and I here repeat and em
phasise It. And I venture to ask my
readers who have so generously en
couraged mo by their warm and con

tbe psychological moment. He
had Ms own clean-cut conceptions of
the subject, and spiritedly addressed
himself to the development of the
same.
At tha Supreme Moment.
"I am a great believer In the Scrip
tural ‘fulness of time.’ The Conner
agricultural college bill was brought
forward at the supreme moment.
‘‘The history of the bill In the house
Interests one deeply. I do not recall a
measure, except the Gordon statue bill,
which had so little promise, so little
"vpe of success, on the day It was
lied up. A whls]
house that the bil
molest chance of even a complimentary
vote. Indeed, the committee on agri
culture reported It favorably more out
of regard for Colonel Perry’s Intense
earnestness than for any other reason.
It was gravely suggested that the bill
might stand In the way of the 'greater 1
agricultural college to which the whdle
people are looking with so great ex
pectancy.
"The fact U we have gone back to
first principles—educating from the top
down. However much the plan may be
animadverted against. It Is capable of
most sBtstfactory results, as shown by
the pest In this state.
An Early Impetus.
"In 1131 the general assembly ap
propriated half a million dollars for
the establishment of an academy of
high grade In each county In the
state. The academies capped the sys
tem of classical schools which flour
ished In the country sparse and In the
city full. They were a connecting link
between those schools and the colleges
of the state. They afforded boys and
girls, rapidly approaching their ma-
orlty, opportunity to obtain a train-
ng which stood them In hand for self-
culture, If It so chanced they had
not the means to go to some college or
university.
"The thought In those days was that
> to the great body of the people the
state would aid the children of thoa*
only who could not themselves edu-
cate them. The state provided In a
measure for the few through the agen
cy of the academies. The classical
schools, referred to, were, nf course,
private schools, but thousands of wor.
thy and ambitious boys and girls
whose parents could not contribute a
penny to those schools, were permit-
ted to drink at the fountain and later
by Ihslr career, honored the courtesy
extended them.
Educated th* Massts.
"That system of education did this
for Georgia. Through the few who
were carefully trained and fully
equipped she"educated the masses; that
la, thoroughly informed them on all
public questions—the genius of a re
publican form of government, the
rights of the states In the territories,
the rights which the states yielded to
the general government and the great
and Indestructible right of local self,
government which the states reserved
to themselves.
"That system of schools turned out
young men, who, If they were ambi
tious of becoming soldiers, were sel
dom, If ever, rejected at West Point,
except for physical disability. That
fact alone tells of ths thoroughness of
the work done in those schools.
‘‘The Perry bill proposes an agri
cultural school In each congressional
district, and appropriates the* fees
from the Inspection of fertilizers, oil,
etc., except such amounts now other
wise appropriated.
"The concession of the fertilizer fees
was most striking evidence of the
gradual and masterful hold which the
bill took upon the house aa the debate
progressed. It Is rarely that speeches
control In the disposition of a bill In
coses where the house manifests, at the
outset, a persuasion unfavorable to the
measure. Debate did shape and make
the destiny of the Perry bill.
Hew the Lew Will Opsrats, /
The agricultural schools will bs
called Into existence one after another.
The most active congressional district
will take the lead. It may be a year
or two years before another district
will attempt the work. But, one by
one. Inspired by the success of others,
each district will organize a school of
agriculture.
‘‘These schools will be the cap-stone
of the common schools of the several
districts. They will constitute an In
spiration and an Invitation to the more
ambitious boys and glrta to come up
higher. They will lead to the state
college of agriculture hundreds who
would never cherish the hope of reach
ing that Institution. They will lead
not a few to the other college! of the
state. They will equip thousands for
the battle of life.
Will Raise ths Browk of Children.
”1 said of the Connor bill not Ion*
ago that It would raise the brow of
every Georgia farmer an Inch. I say
of the Perry bill that It will raise the
brow of every Georgia boy and girl
In the country wide an Inch—giving
them new hope and blessing them with
an Inspiration that will be uplifting
and triumphant. „ ....
”1 sincerely trust that the Perry bill
will eo favorably Impress the senate
that that body will paea It by a unan
imous vote. j
"This done, with what the legisla
ture haa already done at this session lit
furtherance of agricultural education,
Georgia will stand before her slater
states of the South an exemplar of
high rank—truly a great state.
