When left alone to its natural func¬

elements. On the slightest provoca¬
tion- a spark, a shock, a fuse—the
nitrogen suddenly expands from seem¬

Nitrogen, against its natural disposi¬
tion, is locked up in an uncongenial
space in these compounds, from which
it is set free by very simple means
in an enormously expanded gaseous
state with deadly effect, returning, m
fact, to its normal peaceful mission
once more. It is the analogue of the

Coffee Act# the Jonah ami WU1 Como Up
A clergyman who pursues bis noble
calllug in a country pariah in Iowa
tells of Ills coffee experience:
“My wife and 1 used coffee regularly
for breakfast, frequently for dinner
and occasionally for supper—aH^sys
the very best quality—package coffee
never could find a place on our table.
“In the spring of 189(1 my wife was
taken with violent vomiting, which
we had great difficulty in stopping.
"It seemed to come from coffee drink¬
ing, but we could not decide.
“In the following July, however, she
was attacked a second time by the
vomiting. I was away from home till¬
ing an appointment at the time, and on
my return l found her very low; sbe
had literally vomited herself almost to
death, and it took some days to quiec
the trouble and restore her stomach.
“1 had also experienced the same
trouble, hut not so violently, and had
relieved it each time by u resort to
medicine.
“But my wife's second attack satis¬
fied me that the use of coffee was at
the bottom of our troubles, and so we
stopped it forthwith and took bn Fox
tutn Food Cofree. The old symptoms
of disease disappeared, and during the
years that we have been using Pos¬
ture instead of coffee we have never
k:ul a recurrence of the vomiting. Wo
never weary of Postuin, to which we
know we owe our good health. This :s
a simple stater.: lit of tacts.” Name

Figures Should Have Been U Per Cent
Instead of II--A Difference of
4,731,COO Acres.
A Washington special says: Assist¬
ant Secretary Haye ^ Wednesday i*.ade
public the lollowing report to Secreta¬
ry Wilson on the acreage of cotton in
the southern states in 11)03, compared
with that planted in 10j4:
“The crop estimating board of the
department of agriculture has consid¬
ered the report issued by the bureau
of statistics on June 2, relative to the
acreage pianto 1 in cotton in the south¬
ern states in 190S, as compared with
that planted in T%i, and has con¬
cluded:
“First: That a new estimate should
be made on acreage planted, and that
the figures in Mr. Hyde's hands, when
be used
as the basis.
“Second: That Mr. Hyde, with Mr.
Holmes at his elbow prompting him,
made the estimate lower than the
facts at nis hand from the reports
from the seven classes of reporters
employed by the bureau, warranted.
“Third: That the board finds, upon
careful consideration of the reports
of all classes of correspondents and
agents, that the acreage planted in
cotton this year, including the entire
season, should have been estimated at
85.1 per cent of that planted last
year, equivalent to a reduction iu
planted acreage as compared with
last year of 14.9 per cent (instead of
11.4 per cent) or 4.731,00!) acres—the
estimate of the total acreage .planted
this year being 2C,999,GOO acres.
“The estimated percentage of the
decrease in each of . he cotton-growing
slates is as follows: 1
Virginia
North Car
South C
Georgia

Louisiana
Texas ./
Arkansas'
Tennessee
Missouri .

“The averages xf-’ere made for each
state by each of t. le four members of
the board, and the comparatively
small disagreemen ts were harmonized
almost wholly by averaging, and the
above results are fully agreed to by
each and every m ember of the board.

Three men crashed to death, and

The case of Metius is peculiar. He
j was able to walk up town after the

ALF MOORE DOOMED.
Negrro Iir.pi cafei in Carter Murders
Convict::--0 d Maa Rav/iings
Brought Into Coart on a Cot.
Alf Moore, the negro accomplice,
charged jointly with J. G. Rawlings
as accessory before the fact in the
' : assassination of the Carter children,
P'd on Trial at Valdosta, Ga„ on
i Thursday morning, and convicted la
about lour hours. In the afternoon
J. G. Rawlings was arraigned and the
selection of a jury was well under way
when court adjourned until Friday.
Moore’s case was called the first
thing, and both sides announced
ready. The negro had employed no
counsel, and the court appointee*
Messrs. Cranford, Woodward and
Smith to defend him. Solicitor Gen¬
eral W. E. Thomas appeared for the
stale. J he selection of a jury con¬
sumed an hour and a half, three panels
be'ng called.
L. Carter was the first witness
for the state. His evidence was
practically the same as that which
he gave on the stand in the trials of
the Rawlings boys.
No evidence was introduced in be¬
half cf the defendant. He went to
the stand and repeated to the jury the
stat nrnms he swore to in the cases
against the Rawlings boys, detailing
the allege d trade made with the elder
Rawlings for the extermination of the
Carter family, saying that Rawlings
promised to pay him $100 and give
him a fine revolver to do the work;
that after Milton and Jesse had killed
the Carter children and Carter began
to fire on them, he got frightened
and ran away, making his way back
to Staunton, where he was arrested
a few clays later.
Mr. Crawford of the defense made
an earnest plea for his client, and
the judge delivered Iris charge before
the noon recess. The jury was ready
to report when Judge Mitchell return¬
ed from dinner. Many people thought
that, in consideration of the cosies
sion made by the negro, which has
done much to clear up the terrible
murders, that he should have received
a recommendation to mercy. As it is,
the verdict will send him to the gal¬
lows.
The trial of ,T. G. Rawlings began
at 4 o’clock, and progressed with the
ant reclining on a couch,which
been"^11 for several-frays, and, when
the case was called, Attorney Cooper
on
ground, that his client was not phys- 1
ically able to undergo the trial, and
was too sick to sit in the court room
and assist his counsel.
Judge Mitchell stated that while he
was inclined to consult his sympathy
in the matter, still, under the show- :
ing of the investigating physicians, j
who were interrogated, he felt it his !
duty to overrule the motion for a con¬
tinuance.
