Our new established trade routes cover the whole world, writes C. H. Claudy, in the Scientific American. Thus there are 47 steamers sailing to the Argentine and they sail from New York. Boston, Mobile, New Orleans, Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, Brunswick and Jacksonville. Two steamers go from New York to Per¬ nambuco, Macelo and Bahia, North Brazil. Twenty-five sail to mid-Brazil (Kio and Santos), from Charleston, Sa¬ vannah. Brunswick and Jacksonville. Five steamers from New York and one from New Orleans make regular trips to the west coast of South America, ranging from Guayaquil, Ecuador, to Valparaiso, Chile. Two steamers go from New York to Norih Africa and Egypt; five from New York to the Dutch East Indies; two from New York to Bombay and other Indian ports; three from New York to Spain (Barcelona, Valencia, Cadiz and the Seville). Every two months a steamer goes from the me¬ tropolis to Danzig, and every six weeks one or two steamers sail out the Narrows to Constantinople and the Black Sea ports. Three steamers sail from New York to West Africa, two to South Africa, three to Australia and New Zealand, and three to China, Ja¬ pan and the Philippines. Fifteen steamers leave the Golden Gate, one every ten days, for China and Japan, and two more from the same port go to Europe via the far East. We have a steamer from New York to Genoa, and one from Baltimore to the same port; while two serve Gre¬ cian ports from New York. To Lon¬ don we send six steamers from New York, three from Philadelphia, two from Baltimore and one from Nor¬ folk. We send six to Liverpool from New York, two from Boston, five from Baltimore, one from Norfolk and one from Galveston. New York says good by to three ships clearing for Glasgow on monthly sailings, four to Havre, and three to Bordeaux. The latter port is also served from Boston and Baltimore with two steamers and one steamer, respectively. New York sends two steamers to Marseilles and seven to Antwerp, while tvvo from Boston, and one each from Philadelphia and Baltimore go to the same destination. Rotterdam sees N’ew York ships to the number of ten. and from Philadelphia two. Copen¬ hagen and Gothenburg are served by five steamers from New York while the West Indian ports are visited reg¬ ularly by two steamers from Wilming¬ ton, two from Charleston, two from Savannah, two from Brunswick and two from Jacksonville. Meanwhile, the balance of the list of ships is engaged in going to every port of the world where a cargo can go—and the flag at the stern is the Stars and Stripes.

S. ONE NOTE DEALS WITH KIDNAP 1NG OF HUGO, AND OTHER WITH ARREST OF SAILORS SCORE CARRANYA OFFICIALS Alleged Only Farcical Effort Bein( Made To Protect Lives And Prop¬ erty Of Americans Washington.—The case of th» United States against Mexico was sup plemented by two additional notes from this government to Carranzt calling upon him to see that “out rages” such as the kidnaping of Fred eriek Hugo by Villistas “shall not be repeated,” and also to inform this gov ernment by what right two Uniteo States sailors have been held in jaii at Mazatlan since their arrest No vember 12 on the charge of assaull and battery. Investigation by state department officials developed such strong evi dence of dereliction and neglect on the part of Carranza officials to pro tect the lives of Americans that the two communications are couched ic language even stronger than that used in the case of William O. Jenkins United States consular agent at Pueb la, Mexico. The full text of neithei communication has been made pub lie, but officials say that the note ic the Hugo case is an “insistence/ 1 while the Jenkins notes merely “re quested.” In the case of the sailors held at Mazatlan the s£ate depart ment’s view of the grounds on which the Mexican officials continue to hold them are referred to as “various pre¬ texts.” What a farcical effort the Carran¬ za government is making to protect the life and property of Americans is clearly brought out by the state department. The first reports which were received of the kidnaping and release of Frederick Hugo indicated that he had been set free without the payment of ransom. Instead of this reports which reached Washington show the following to be the facts: Mr. Hugo was only released after he had promised to pay the Villistas $1,500 in twelve days. The bandits stole from Americans 100.000 pesos, 148 horses and quan¬ tities of food. Carranza troops who outnumbered the rebels at Muzquiz were stationed only forty miles away, but refused to advance upon Muzquiz until the Vil¬ listas had evacuated the town. FIGHT TO ANNUL DRY AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION Supreme Court Orders Government To Show Cause Why Fight Should Not Be Allowed To Proceed Washington.—The Supreme court has ordered the government to show cause on January 5 why original pro¬ ceedings should not be instituted by the states of Rhode Island and New Jersey retail liquor dealers to have determined the constitutionality of the national prohibition constitutional amendment. Applications for permission to con¬ test the amendment’s validity and seek injunctions against its enforce¬ ment in those states have been pre¬ sented. In both instances the amend¬ ment is alleged to conflict with the state police powers and with the fed¬ eral constitution. In ordering the government to show cause the court, according to govern¬ ment attorneys, followed an unusual procedure, as ordinarily in such in¬ stances permission to bring such pro¬ ceedings is given and a date fixed when they are returnable. The court, however, is generally believed to have been prompted by the fact that as the amendment becomes effective on Jan¬ uary 16, next, the procedure would expedite matters. First New Cuban Sugar In New York New York.—The first cargo of the new crop of Cuban sugar, consisting of 24,000 bags, reached here on the steam¬ ship Matanzas. The sugar is consign¬ ed to American refiners. MINERS’ PRESIDENT IS INCARCERATED Indianapolis. — Alexander Howat, president of the Kansas district (No. 144), United Mine Workers, was placed in jail here awaiting hearing on a charge of contempt of court for alleged violation of the federal court injunction against furtherance of the strike of the coal miners. The hear¬ ing will be held at an early date, and it is expected that interesting details of the miners’ strike will be forth¬ coming. Italy’s King Cannot Make War Again Rome, Italy.—The chamber of dep¬ uties, including the Socialist mem¬ bers, strongly approved Premier Nit ti’s statement to the house that he would present a bill modifying Article V of the constitution, so that here after only the parliament shall have power to declare war. The deputies also showed marked approval of the premier when he read a telegram he sent to Admiral Milo, who had sup¬ ported d’Annunzio at Fiume, condemn ing his attitude and declaring military power must be subservient to the civil. Embers. Winter fuel Is being gathered up wherever It may be found this autumn. In Paris the coal carts which all day lumber along the Avenue de Versailles on the edge of the Seine are followed by a troop of women and children armed with sacks and baskets. The road Is worn, there are many holes, the jolts are frequent and bits of coal or coke come tumbling down. There Is a rush and eager hands thrust the black treasure into grimy baskets and gaping sacks. The gleaners organize themselves into shifts—It’s worth do¬ ing—they get as much as a sackful— one hundredweight—In one quarter of an hour. Thus Paris is taking in its coal—in good time. In London where all the streets, or nearly all, have been up this August and September there has been a harvest of half-worn tarred wood blocks—little heaps of them along the s-lde of the road. No lack of customers either, and In areas and back yards tidy little stores of blocks have been put by for use in the com¬ ing winter. Paternal Wisdom. “Pa, what is an ‘impresario?”* “An impresario, my son, er—a man who runs a restaurant.” “But, pa, I thought he had some¬ thing to do with a theater.” “That’s right, my son. He’s a man who runs a restaurant in connection with a theater."—Birmingham Age Herald. Fashion's Power. “Some of the most fashionable peo¬ ple are going to wear old clothes.” “That’s terrible news,” walled the man with shiny sleeves. “Why terrible?” “If old clothes become fashionable they’ll cost so much that nobody caa afford to buy a second-hand suit.” Father's Punishment. "Out after hours again, eh?” said the father. “Only ten minutes,” replied the son. “Well, go at once to your room, sir, lock yourself in, and bring me the key. This thoughtlessness must be checked.”—London Tit-Bits. Water Iris Good Fertilizer. High value as a fertilizer is found in the water Iris. The material Is par¬ tially dried before stacking, aud after becoming well rotted It proves to have about the same composition as farm yard manure, except that It is richer in potash. Only One Thing to Do. Three-Finger Sam says the only way to reform a man who has learn¬ ed to deal off the bottom Is t* keep him good and scared. Healthy, Robust People Popular Everywhere Good Health Creates an Attractive Magnetic Personality and Wins Admiration Healthy People Are Happiest .Pepto-Mangan H 3 )* Put Thousands Into t*H> Healthy, Full-Blooded Class,. How the red-blooded, energetic, and attraeitve man or woman is envied by those who feel that it will always be their unfortunate lot to be thin, pale, and weak-bodied! And yet why continue to envy men and women who posssess a vigorous, healthy physical condition and a a at¬ tractive magnetic personality. Poor health and lack of vitality are often merely the result of impoverished blood. Gude’s Pepto-Mangan is for people whose bodies suffer from lack of prop¬ er blood nourishment,. Pepto-Mangan enriches the blood and increases the number of healthy red blood cells which are so necessary to carry the proper nourishment, vigorousness, and strength to every part of the body,. Physicians introduced Gude’s Pepto Mangan to the public because they knew it contained the very proper¬ ties that are sorely needed to build up thin watery blood. For your con¬ venient^ Pepto-Mangan is prepared in two forms, liquid and tablet. Both contain exactly the same medicinal value. Insist on the genuine Pepto Mangan. To be sure you are buying the genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask your druggist for “Gude’s” And be sure the name “Gude’s” is on the package. Ad. O. H. ADAMS, Attomey-at-Law, Office Under Clock, Second Story of Court House. Covington, Ga.
