J. P. MORGAN AND HIS WORK-
J. Plerpont Morgaa was one of
masters of flnan.e and financial de
velopment in the present century
who began his career as a rich
man. Unlike many young men of
alfuence, he began business life nt
the age of twenty-one, having In
herited one of the largest fortunes
of his day, estimated at ten millions.
Front the beginning, he applied him
self industriously, not only to con-

good shape throughout the year.
These spasmodic half-hearted clean
ings are of but little use, and once
clean it can be kept so without
much trouble. Chairman Elder of
the street committee is superinten
ding the job.

said, controlled the money of
country. He had never used that:
control for the 'purpose of breaking J
down or destroying commerce or j
against the liberties and homes ofj
the great masses of the people. He
has, however, as financial powers!
are known to do, used it against j
those who opposed him in his busi-|
ness efforts. Concentration was his!
aim and he accomplished his work J
by that singular aim. I
It was Morgan who came to the
rescue of the country during the
panic of 1907. He loaned banks
and great business institutions mon
ey with which to meet their obliga
tions at a time when money was not
available at almost any price. It is
believed that hundreds of institu
tions were saved from bankruptcy
and ruin by this policy.
Like few rich men’s sons, he livea
cleanly and conservatively. He
spent not his time in riotous living
and his eubstances of the pleasures
and follies that are but as the morn
ing mist. His wan a life of 'pur
poseful effort and success attended
his every move. But, like the hum
blest worker in the vast institutions
of which he was head, he was callel
and the millions and millions of
dollars which he had amassed and
the skill of physicians which it was
able to buy, w*ould not save that
life. He was but of dust and like
all living things, he returns to
dust, leaving behind a record of
great, manly endeavor that in itself
will leave its mark on the history of
this country for years to come.
Morgan once owned a railroad in
Georgia. He bought with equip
ment 1,30® shares of the Macon
and Brunswick railroad and was
paid in addition over a hundred
thousand.
Atlanta. March 31.—"If the city
of Atlanta will not put muzzles on
dangerous dogs, lets see whether ths
State of Georgia will," says Alder
man VanDyke, In substance, this
morning. Since Mayor Woodward
has vetoed the first dog-muzzling
ordinance passed by council, the
alderman announces that he will
draft another, and that. if it meets
the same fate, he will take steps to
have a general dog muzzling bill
introduced In the legislature.
It is his proposal to have a gen
eral law in Georgia, for a specific
number of -months, to run out auto
matically, keeping the dogs muz
zled for a long enough time to
9tamp out the present prevalence of
rabies, which amounts to almost
an epidemic in some sections.

An Atlanta wife sues for divorce,
claiming that her husband drank
constantly and then quit to take on
an affinity. She says that was just
one step further than lie could prop

Uncle Sam is now ready to favor
the recognition of China, but it
wont be because that country want*

The state should by all means
pass a law requiring the registra
tion of vital statistics, for unless it
is a state law’ and the state gets
behind Its enforcement, it will nev
er be properly done.

Atlanta, April 2.—After scathing
ly denouncing the local ordinary’s
office for attempting to imprison a
sane woman in the asylum, Rev.
Hugh K. Wallace and County Phy
sician, J. W. Hurt, succeeded in
having Mrs. R. fl. Parham, a young
wotnan who canae here from Colum

The unhappy woman, who had
been imprisoned in a cell for a
week or more waiting trial for lun
acy, is now in the home of wealthy
relatives near Bulkhead. The Rev.
Mr. Wallace charged that the Or
dinary’s office was seeking to act as
judge, jury and prosecutor in the
case and that the officials instate
that the woman he tried for lunacy,
notwithstanding the pleadings of
relatives who said she was merely
ill and that they would take charge
of her and give her every attention
needed.
Mrs. Parham, it is said, was 111

and it was while in that condition
NO DECISION ON SUGAR
Washington, April 1.—Senator
Owen, Chairman of the Senate Cur

Wilson, laying the foundation for
further conferences along this line.
Senator Owens expressed the opin

troduced at an early date, and that
it will have the support of the ad
ministration.
The attention of the leaders is
now centered on the tariff confer-*
ence tonight, when Representative
Uncferwood will have his second
conference with the President on
the new bill.
President Wilson is now prepar
ing his first message to congress.
He has heard some protest, princi
pally against putting free sugar on

President Wilson’s mind is said to
be still open on both the sugar
question and whether the revision
will be schedule by schedule or in

SAYS THE GEORGIA STATE
BOARD OF HEALTH.

Atlanta, Ga., April 1.—6t la time
to begin usln? the screen, says the
Georgia State Board of Health, us
ing it liberally and effectively la
preventing the spread of contagion
and in checking the carriers of it.
There is no more vitally Impor
tant element In the protection of
health and the prevention of dis
ease than the screen and under
this designation may be included
not only the window and door
screens of the home, but the proper
screening of the well, the outhouse,
the manure pile, against the spread
of any infection.
It is better and safer to go with
out chairs or even without beds and
sleep on the floor, than to live In an.
unscreened house. Flies, mosqui
toes and other Insects are known
carriers of dieease. The special
function of the fly in the scheme of
nature, seems to be to keep typhoid
germs in circulation, gathering them
upon filth and depositing them upon
food In the kitchen or dining room
whence they are taken Into the body
through the mouth. Flies are
known, too, to convey the germs of
dysentery and infantile paralysis,
as has been discovered by recent
investigation.
A particular kind of mosquito, the
anopheles, is known beyond question
to be the only means by which the
germ of malaria is conveyed from
the body of one person to that of
another.
Therefore, it ls most important
to exclude flies and mosquitos from
the home. Every opening In the
house should be screened against
them. When flies do get a chance
to get in, they should be caught In a
trap or on sticky fly-paper.
Stop Fly-Breeding.
Not only should the house he
screened nganlst the entrance of the
common fly, but the barnyard man
ure pile should be screened aganlst
his breeding. NInety-flve per cent,
or more of alt the flies are bred in
the manure pile; effectively covering
it so as to exclude flies, Is the only-
method of preventing fly-breeding.
It is most important, therefore, to
sereen the privy aganlst the fly, and
it is equally Important to build it
so that the contents cannot pollute
the soli. Every farmejr knows that
after pasturing cattle or hogs
the same ground tor two or three
years, the animals begin to lose
their health: many of them wll’
sicken and die. The reason of this
is the production in the animal of
disease germs peculiar to it, and the
dissemination of these germs

way into other and healthy animals
causing sickness and death. Th
same Ib true as to man; continued
pollution of the soli by man ren

because of disease; and to maintain
health and retain life, be must guard
against It.
Essential to Health.
The sanitary privy screened, both

Every farm house, every country
school and church should be pro
vided with a thoroughly sanitary
privy, built according to approved
plans, and arrangements should be
made to have It kept In a clean and
sanltury condition, so as to make
soil pollution Impossible. A single
unsanitary out-house of this ' sort,
polluting soli and water, may
spread contagion and disease to an
entire community in tact, ninny in
stances are known where this very
thing has happened.
