Value of an Emigrant.
Old Dr. Farr, the late Superinten¬
dent of Statistics in the office of the
Registrar-General, made an estimate
of the money value of a rnan on the
bases of the capitalized value of his
probable net future earnings. On the
basis of the agricultural laborer’s
wages at that time, he calculated that
each Individual—man, woman and
child—was on an average worth about
£110 to the country. In the same
way he calculated that the emigrant
of that time, because of the larger
proportion of adult male3 than In the
general population, was worth an
average of abcut £170 to the cous
fry.
Since tho date when these calcula
fions were made by Dr. Farr wages
have risen, and the future earnings
have been increased by the greater
average length of life. It is probable,
therefore, that the average value of
an emigrant at the present time is not
less than £200 and of a family of
four persons about £800.
The emigration of 5,000 families
would thus mean a loss of about four
million sterling in the capital value
of the population of I his country re¬
garded merely as profit making ma¬
chines.—Saturday Review.

Reward for Murds er.
Governor Terrell has offered a re¬
ward of $100 for the arrest of Geo.
Parham, a negro, who is charged with
the murder of Zetta Wilson. The
killing occurred in Meriwether coun¬
ty on October 17, and is said to have
been the outgrowth of a fight during
.1 game of cards.
Georgia's objection is solely to the
methods employed, which result 111
the releasing of abundance of suiphu
ious fumes, which spread over the
t unrounding country, particularly over
-the counties of Murray, tubuu, Fan
nin, Union and Towns, inlfrorth Geor
gia, and completely destroy the veg

:Rumored Rail-ofld Deal.
It is rumored in Aa-dl that the Sea¬
board Air Line Railway company has
bought the South Georgia and West
Coast railroad, which operates trains
from Adel through Quitman to Ferry,
Fla.
The officials of the Seaboard made
a tour of inspection over the South
Georgia road in a private car a tew
days ago. They have also checked
up the South Georgia road's business
in the head office at Quitman, it this
deal is made the Seaboard will prob
ably build a link from Adel to Ocilia
in order to connect with their road
from Abbeville.
Must Reweigh Freight Cars.
Circular 312, providing for the re
iveighing of freight cars by the rail¬
roads operating in Georgia, has been
issued by the railroad commission,.
The circular is one of importance.
it states that numerous inquiries
and complaints have been made to
the railroad commission, with refer¬
ence to the weights of empty cars,
as used in determining the net
weights of carload shipments by de¬
ducting from the gross weight the
weight of the car used as printed
on the side thereof, it is the opinion
of the commission that all empty cars
should be reweighed and the correct
weight of each car stenciled thereon,
together with the date upon which
such ear was last weighed.

State is Fighting Trust.
The cases of the State of Georgia
against the Tennessee copper com¬
panies in the supreme court of the
United States will be argued on De¬
cember 4. Attorney General John U.
Hart has received a letter from the
clerk of the court, informing him that
the cases had been *et.
It is Amalgamated Copper tind
Standard Oil that the State ot: Geor
gia is fighting in this suit.
While the companies in question
are known as the Tennessee Copper
company and the Ducktown sulphur.
Copper and Iron company, they are
the properties of none other than the
copper trust. Thus it is that Geor¬
gia. in asking the United States su¬
preme court to enjoin these compa¬
nies, is bucking two of the most gi¬
gantic trusts in the world.

Wilson’s Slayer Caught.
Dick Hardy, the negro who killed
Max Wilson, a prominent white far-
mer of Heard county, near Franklin,
a few days ago, has been captured
and jailed by the sheriff.
Mr. Wilson was sitting on a stump
when the negro shot him in the back,
killing him instantly.
The murder was prompted by re¬
venge. Three months ago. Wilson
killed Hardy’s brother in self-defense.
It is said that Hardy has repeatedly
said that he intended to kill Wil¬
son.
Four other negroes, George Hous¬
ton and his two sons, Ed and
Charles, and Pleas Almand, are said
to have backed Hardy in the commit¬
ment of the crime, and they have
been taken in custody by the officers.

White Man to Succeed Rucker.
There is currem. in Atlanta, ac¬
cording to The Journal, a persistent
and “““ seemingly well founded report to
j effert that Henry A. Rucker, the
1 negro internal revenue collector for
j the northern district, will be replac¬
! white by President
ed by a man
Roosevelt in the near future. Those
in a position to know insist upon the
cor. uo.neSs oi the report, and say
no change will be made shortly, al¬
though the name of his successor has
j not been mentioned connection
with tile report.
Some time ago it was reported that
Rucker would be removed by the
president and a white man appointed
to succeed him. At that time, how¬
ever, it was said that President
Roosevelt would decline to remove
the collector unless something could
be found against his official record,
and this, it was said, was regarded
as very good by the chief executive.
Since that time, however, it is said,
the president has changed his mind
about the matter and has at last
fully determined to name a white
man to succeed the collector.
The position is one of the best the
government lias in the south. It. pays
a salary of over $4,000 pet- year.

Stevens’ Case Unique.
A long ai d difficult case- requiring
several weeks of close attention,, ex¬
posure and daring ventures is that
which developed at Macon the past
week in the commitment of W. JD.
Stevens to jail with a bond' fixed at
$500 to await a trial in the United
States court on a charge-of fraucSnlent
use of the mails to assist New York
"green goods” men in circulating let¬
ters for the purpose of swindling on
a large scale.
According to the evidence furnished
by Postoffice Inspector H. T. Gregory
before Commissioner IL. M. Erwin,
this game was worked among Geor¬
gia farmers. Stevens himself admit¬
ted that he had lost $500 when he
first dealt with the- "green goods
people. When the inspector was put
upon the case it was through com¬
plaints made by others, but in an¬
swering a proposition with a view 01
offering opportunity for the swindlers
to work the game upon himself he
was referred to Stevens, according to
his statements to the officer.

New Material for Paper.
Samples of the papaya, or Mexican
pawpaw, have been sent to American
paper makers to be tested for its
adaptability for the manufacture of
high grades of paper. To judge from
its appearance, it seems probable
that no decorticating machinery would
be required in its treatment, as the
fibrous material is devoid of woody
elements to all appearances.

Some Dog Tales.
“I have an unusually intelligent
dog.” said the man who likes 10 sp ; n
yarns when with a party of friends.
“He was taught to say his prayers, and
if you ’11 believe me, that dog now
wags his tail whenever he sees a min¬
ister anywhere near him.”
"I have a deg with'even more intel¬
ligence than that," quietly returned a
member of the party. "One day whan
he got out la the street some mis¬
chievous boys tied a tin can to his
tail, and if you’ll believe me, that dog
headed for the nearest saloon and
backed right up to the tar.”—BaltJ

Accent on the Operatic Stage.
No Englishman with daughters
could do a rasher thing than permit
them to take lessons from eminent
professors with a view of going on
the stage. The opera stage in Eng¬
land scarcely exists. At Uovcnt ar
den a woman who can speak good
English can only get in by force of so¬
cial influence, and abroad a foreigner
has very great difficulty because she
cannot speak or sing with a perfect
accent. The foreign lady or gentle¬
man comes across here and on oc¬
casion will’ venture to sing in English,
and their mistakes bring nothing more
than a smile to the faces of the- audi¬
ence. - But let an English singer go to
France or Germany and something to¬
tally different happens-.

OLD FASHIONED FARE.'
Tot Biscuits, Gr*Sille Oau.es, Pie* ana
■Puddings.. —-—
Tlie food that made the fathers 1
strong is sometimes unfit for the chil¬
dren under the new conditions that our
changing civilization is constantly
bringing in. One of Mr. Bryan's neigh¬
bors ia the gr*at Stats- of Nebraska
writes,:
“I was raised in the South, where
hot biscuits, griddle cakes, pies and
puddings are eaten at almost every
meal, and by the time I located in Ne¬
braska I found myself a sufferer from
indigestion and its attendant ills—dis¬
tress and pains after meals, an almost,
constant headache, dull, heavy sleepi¬
ness by day and sleeplessness at night,
loss of flesh, impaired memory, etc., etc.
"I was rapidly becoming incapaci¬
tated for business when a valued friend
suggested a change in my diet, the
abandonment cf heavy, rich stuff and
the use of Grape-Nuts food. I
lowed the good advice and shall always
be thankful that I did so.
"Whatever may be the experience
of others, tho beneficial .effects of the
change were apparent in my case a!-,
most immediately. My stomach, which
had rejected other food for so long, took
to Grape-Nuts most kindly; in a day
or two my headache was gone. I began
to sleep healthfully and before a week
was out the scales showed that my lost
weight was coming back. My memory
was restored with the renewed vigor
that I felt in body and mind. For three
years now Grape-Nuts food has kept
me in prime condition, and I propose it
shall for the rest of my days.
“And, by the way, my 2% year old
baby is as fond cf Grape-Nuts as I am,
always insists on having it. It keeps
her as healthy and hearty as they make
them.” Name given by Postum Co..
