Yesterday.
The press of the State for the past
few days have been quoting Prof, J. B.
Hnnniouttas saying that he had put
the University authorities on notice
that he would no longer be a party to
farce of using tbo money of the Agri
cultural college for the upbuilding of
the University.
He has also been quoted ss ssying
that he proposed joining hands with
Hon. Pope Brown, of Pulaski, in his
attempt to remove the sgrionltaral
funds from the University and to es
tablish a new Agricultural college.
To both of these reports, Prof. Hnn-
nientt enters a .vigorous denial. He
■ays he has talked with no newspaper
men on the subject and is at a loss to
understand how they could have quoted
him in this manner.
He say a he has pat the University

As to the matter of locating the college
he said^it was none of bis business. Hie
work Wes to teach agriculture ant te
waa devoting bis best energies to make
the agricnltnral course attractive and
beneficial.
As for bis individual opinion he be
lieved the college can beat prosper in
oonnection with the University, if cer
tain changes are brought about.
His idea is to require all the students
in the sgrionltaral college to take agri
culture; to have a large and well-
t quipped farm for the purpose of ex
periments and practical training; and
to have a mess hall at wbioh students
could live for seven dollars per month
Ae to the statement that he proposed
to aid Mr. Brown in tie fight to remove
the Agrccnltnral oollege to Griffin, he
aaid that he bed nothing to do with the
location of the college and that the
legislature end trustees of the Univer
sity could settle that matter,
His visit to the State college of Mis
sissippi was for the purpose of examin
ing into the niettode of teaching there,
and bismeetirg with Mr. Brown in
Atlanta waa purely accidental.
Prof. Hunnicutt said that the Insinu
ations in the press that the University
feared an investigation plaoed the Uni
versity in a false light. She had noth
ing whatever to fear in any investigs
tion that might be made.
The people of Statbam, Ga, were
greatly pleased Wednesdey by the ex
hibit made by the Seaboard Air Line
railroad.
That this road is doing a great work
in the direction of informing the people
on many important points oannot he
denied. v

Industrial Training Sohool is a big
thing on wheals..
It is designed to call onr attention to
the latest labor-saving devices in the
agricnltnral and domestics departments
by showing the labir-iaviog machines
and the work they do. Experts have
these machines in charge, and the clear
est and fullest explanations are given
and with these go pratioal illustrations
of how the work is done. And with
these go other things. These men do
not lose sight of results. In thoroughly
polite, bat most convincing manner, do
they show bow we ere “ leaving undone
those things which we ought to do.”
In demonstrating the value of an evap
orator, how mnoh it can do in a given
time and at what cost, they remark, in
oidently as it were, that evaporated
blackberries, whortleberries and other
frnite and vegetables sail in*the market
for 300 percent higher than do sun dried
ones. The natural conclusion here
reaohed is that it evaporated fruits are
worth 300 per cent more than sun-dried
ones, how muoh more are they worth
than the ones that are thrown; awsyf
How mnoh more than the orchard*,

A simple canning outfit that a four-
teen-year-old boy ojuld find time be
tween his base ball and bicycle sports to
pnt up 1.000 cans in a month with, and
not interfere with bis championship re
cord. With this same outfit, which
did not cost $50, an average woman
with nothing to do—one of the kind
who only bad to cock, wash, iron, “mend
the clothes.” attend to the cow end the
garden, do the house work, and a few
other things—could attend to all of
these things, and sell the the product of
her work from this outfit at $3 per day.
Near by was an unusual apectaole
An ancient Billy goat of venerable as
pect and long beard was operating the
tread power of a cream separator. Billy
did not er joy it half as mnoh as did the
crowd, but think of what was done by
stopping a goat from eating cans and
circus posters and putting him to hon
orable and even soientifio employment.
As Billy, wit a great dignity and greater
disgust, “trod the tread” he applied
centrifugal force by means of machinery
to milk, and the cream oama out of
one spont, while skim milk went
into another. William would have
presented a more cheerfnl view had he
been able to dispense with centrifugal
force and applied his mouth to the sepa
rator, bat William was laboring for
scientific ends, and had to be patient
and self-denying. With this separator
a few cows, some of the wonderful
churns here exhibited and any few of
the thousands of onr idle acres of high
grade, low-priced land, a dairy could
be started and money would be made
Especial emphasis was given to truck
farming and to onr fruits—wild and
cultivated—and to our vegetable pro
ducts.
Mr. J. T. Patrick, of North Carolina
has oharga of this work and it is only
proper to say that a better man for the
purpose coaid hardly have been found.
Not only does he know itspraetloal
details, but be expresses them dearly
and forcibly and were every men who
hears and sees his work to have halt of
bis interest and capacity, the results
would eimply hi marvellous In a
North Carolina town a few days ago
Mr Patrick purchased sample cane and
battles of prese- vai, pickles and vege
tables, which were manufactured out
side of the State and stopped when he
quiokly secured one hundred atd
twenty-five apeoimeus, made from Lon
don and Parle to San Frauoisoo and
Chiosgo. After arduous labors in the
same town he\rt length aeoured eight
•Imilar speotmeos of theee articles
which had been manufactured in North
Carolina. And yet it ia more than
probable that nearly every nne of tbeae
one hundred and twenty-five spe
cimens could have been put up fresher,
better, oheaper at home. Mr. Pa< riek
explained clearly the value of evapora
ted fruits, showed e floe evaporator,
explained and demooatrated the simple
Rejoice with ns in the Discovery. I D rooess of evaporation and than made
1 1 an evaporator from two dry goods
boxes, with an old stove literally
thrown in. Mr. Patrick remarked that
among other reasons for this work waa
the faot that the Seaboard Air Line be
lieved that the people whi had done in
thirty years what we had done could do
as much as any people in the world and
that we had the material to prooeed to
work with.

London, July 15.—While among the
general publio here the tone of Secre
tary Sherman’s letter to Ambassador
Hay regarding the Behring sea seal
regulations is greatly resented, the cor
respondent of the Associated PreBS is in
a nosition to- say that whatever criti
cism the British government may have
to make on the phraseology of the com
munication, the latter has not in any
way affected unfavorably the negotia
tions which Colonel Hay has been con
ducting. .. . • .
A conference will be held In Wash
ington, during the autnmn, at whioh
the United States, Great Britain, Rus
sia and Japan will be represented.
Since the presentation of Secretary
Sherman’s note to Lord Salisbury, Am
bassador, Hay has had repeated con
ferences with his lordship, all of whioh
were of the most friendly oharaoter.
This conciliatory spirit is displayed in
the matter now before the British for
eign office, as is evident by the decision
to hold a conference which, although
not formally announced, may be re
garded as settled.
It may also be taken for granted that
Canada does not oppose this decision.
Mr. Davis, Oauadiau minister of ma
rine, in an interview with the corres
pondent of the Associated Press, said:
“We regard the latest proposal of the
United States as entirely reasonable.
There is the friendliest feeling with re
gard to negotiations between the two
governments; and, in view of this, the
two peoples should not be resentful. I
think there i9 a reasonable view to take
of the matter.”
DOWLING IS' RE-ELECTED.
Minnesota Man Made Secretary of the
National Republican League,
Detroit, July 15.—The new presi
dent, Mr. Crawford, called the National
Republican league to order at 11 o’olock.
A motion was passed directing that
copies of the plank in the platform urg
ing the passage of a discriminating duty
act for the protection of American ship
ping in the foreign trade be sent to the
president, vice president and members
of congress.
A resolution of thanks for and appre
ciation of the efficient service of Mr.
Woodmansee as president was adopted
unanimously. The citizens of Dotroit
were thanked for their bountiful enter
tainment.
The list of vice presidents was then
read. Only the vice presidents of the
southern states are given below:
Virginia, Samuel Burroughs; West
Virginia, Stuart Reed; Alabama, Charles

Her Coach Waa Crashed Into by the Foie
of a liig London Omnibus.
New York, July 15.—A special to
The World from London says: Mrs.
#ohn Hay, wife of the United States
ambassador, had a narrow escape from
what might have proved a fatal acoi-
dent, while driviug in her coach
through Hyde park. As her carriage
left the park it was rnn into from be
hind by a public omnibus, the pole of
which smashed through the back panel
of the coach.
Mrs. Hay had leaned forward just
that moment to speak to her coachman
through the front window and the pole
of the omnibns entered the rear of the
carriage exactly at the place against
whioh Mrs. Hay’s head had but a mo
ment before been resting.
Although terribly frightened, Mrs.
Hay was able to drive to her residence
in Carlton House Terrace as soon as the
omnibns pole was extricated from the
carriage.
The driver of the omnibns was ar
rested.
The Situation la West Virginia.
Wheeling, July 15.—The only change
in the mining situation in West Vir
ginia is the closing of the mines of the
Flemington Goal company, on the Bal
timore and Ohio, near Grafton. These
mines get out coal for the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad. The Tyroonnell and
Bates mines, near Flemington, are still
at work. ' Several of the organizers now
working in the state report progress,
bnt no more mines have been closed.
Aside from the Panhandle mines and
Flemington are all busy and the rail
roads are overtaxed. In eastern Ohio
all is still quiet, orderly and idle.
Scheme to Delay Strike Settlement.
Cleveland, July 15.—The Cleveland
operators regard DeArmitt’s true uni
formity plan-as a scheme to delay the
settlement of the strike. “I will gladly
sign the true uniformity agreement,”
said Thomas Young, "but I will not
spend one hour’s time promoting it. If
DeArmitt means the Pittsburg district
proper, I think 95 per cent of the oper
ators will agree to it. Among the sev
eral operators on the Pennsylvania lines
east of Pittsburg his true uniformity
scheme will fail.” Mr. Young says
that a great many operators are willing
to pay the 69-cent rate.
The Wagee of the Coal Miners.
Columbus, O., July 16.—President
Ratchford has mailed personal requests
to miners throughout the country-ask
ing for statements regarding the wages
they have received for publioationfor
the benefit of the publio. Since early
in the spring the wages of these men
for each two weekalhave aggregated
$5.74 each. The total earnings was
$223.98, and for the same period their
indebtedness to the operators for rent,
provisions, mining materials, eta, ag
gregated $619.29, leaving the miners in
debt to their employers in the Bum of
$396.9L

FATE OF A PROSPECTOR,
Bon Weide Perished In the Wild and
Desolate Mica Country.
Vancouver, B O., Jnly 15 —At last
the fate of Ben Weide is known and
the news just received confirms the
opinion of many that ho perished in the
Wild and desolate mica country, f ot
Which district he left on a prospecting
trip over two years ago with the avowed
Intention of not returning until he had
made a strike.
The last information had of himwai
on March 10, 1896, when he left for
Fort Graham, Findlay river, on a pro*
peering trip. The news just received
stated that about the end of Febrnaty
a party of roaming Sikinese Indiana
found Weide’s camp, but from all ap
pearances nothing had been toadied
for a long time. A search was made
and the Indians eventually found the
remains. He had been entting wood
and cut his foot and evidently bled to
death or died from exhaustion.
The Indians buried his remains on
the spot, taking the papers from the
body, which fully identified him, to the
Hudson Bay faotory at Fort Fraham, a
distance of 100 miles southeast from the
spot where the remains were found.
Weide was a native of Germany and
came to this country many years ago
and settled in Victoria, where he made
considerable money in the hotel busi
ness.
Porte May Yield to the Power*.
Constantinople, July 15. — TewSk
Pasha, who is conducting the peace ne
gotiations of the Turkish government,
has informed the ambassadors of the
powers that he hoped the council of
ministers would make a reply to the
collective note that would prove satis
factory, and that this reply would be
presented Thursday evening. His as
surance gives rise to the hope that Tur
key will comply with the demands of
the powers. The weather is causing
widespread disease among the Turks in
Thessaly. The sublime porte reiterates
its intention to send reinforcements to
Crete and is making preparations for
transport vessels.
Federalists Hold Annual Fete.
Madrid, July J6.—The Federal party
held their annual fete here in honor of
the tenth anniversary of the taking of
the Bastile in Paris. Senor Margall,
the leader ot the party, addressed a

speech expressed the opinion that ■
steady revolution was now in progress
in favor of Caban autonomy. H# said
that if the Federalists wished to see
Cuba pacified and tho Philippines re-
turned to a condition of law and order,
they mnst assert their strength and de
clare for independence.

It cannot be learned who is rospons •
