oats, a net increase in each case, respec
tively, of 5G and 3 percent being noted
over’ the results for the previous year.
Clover and lucerne show decreases of
18 and 2 per cent and bay fell off 651,-
f 14 tons.
In respect to the average yield per
hectare, the crop of rye, wheat, barley,
oats, potatoes and meadow bay for 190Q

rage for the previous eight years, while
the yield of clever and lucerne was con
siderably below the mean average dur-f
ing the same period.

AFTER QUACKS AND FRAUDS
Alabama Will Keep Them Down.
Consumptive Convicts.
Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 9.— The
general assembly yesterday assaulted
the Christian Scientists, hypnotists,
magnetic healers, etc., the house after
some discussion passing a bill which
see*- to compel ail who follow these
occupations in Alabama to first procure
a certificate from the state board of
medical examiners. It was developed
that quacks and frauds of this kind
prospered to an astonishing degree in
Alabama, and the house undertook to
squelch them.
Senator Harrison introduced a bill to
day providing that consumptive con
victs be isolated from The others. The
increase of consumption among the con
victs has grown alarming within ten
years, and the measure is regarded as
most humane.

statement before the governor and the
committee. The repeal of the law has
been passed by the house already.

voy extraordinary to Japan, has re
turned to Atlanta for a brief vacation,
after au absence of about three and one-

ences with the republican leaders in
Georgia. I am out of politics." I may

est in politics in the state. I am not in
1 politics any more.”

Thus Decides the Supreme Court of
Michigan.
Lansing, Mich.. Feb. 12.—The Michi
gan supreme court today handed down
an opinion affirming the judgment of
the Wayne county circuit bench that
franchises are taxable.
The decision was in the case of what
is now the Detroit United Railway com
pany, the corporate name of the con
solidated street railway systems of the
city, against the common council of De
troit. Last year the council increased
the assessment of the railway company
from 82,600,000 to $8,142,100, on the as
sumption that its franchises were tax
able.
The circuit court affirmed the coun
cil’s action and the case was then car
ried to the supreme court.
The railway company applied for a
mandamus to compel the common coun
cil to strike from tbe assessment rolls
the sums alleged to represent the value
placed on the company’s franchise. The
supreme court, in denying the applica
tion, declared the propriety of treating
aggregations of property as a unit is as
natural and proper for the purpose of
assessment as for the purpose of sale,
especially where the various elements
are so essential to the purpose for which
they are combined that the withdrawal
would impair the use of or destroy all
for the purposes to which in their new
form they are adapted. The mandamus
asked for to compel the striking of the
assessment from the rolls was denied.
QUIET RESTORED IN SPAIN
Disorder Caused by the Zealousy of
the Priesthood.
Madrid, Feb. 12.—The Republicans
held several meetings last night and is
sued proclamations to the public. The
Progressists endeavored to march in
procession to a meeting of the Feder-
als, but the police barred their road and
compelled them to disperse. The pro
vincial prelects now an (jounce that
tranquility has been restored in the va
rious departments.
The occasion of much of the disorder
that has taken place in Madrid lately
was an action by a mother to compel the
Jesuits to give up the custody of her
daughter, who, it is alleged, was in
duced by a zealous priest to take the
veil without the consent of her parents.
The high court has reversed the judg
mentof the lower court and has ordered
the restitution of Senor Ubao’s daugh
ter.
Five Carloads of Lettuce.
Leesburg, Fla., Feb. 12.— Last week
was the banner week, thus far, in the
shipment of vegetables. Five of the

frigerator cars went north loaded with
luttuce alone. It took 30,000 pounds of
ice to supply them.
Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube, hen this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect heariog, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and unless thig
inflammation can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of ihe mucous surfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that we
cannot cure by taking Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

TEMPERANCE MANIFESTO
immediate, Energetic and Persistent
Enforcement of the Law Earnestly
Urged—Stirring Appeal by the State
Temperance Union People.
Topeka, Kan., Feb. 12.—Secretary
Stevens of the Kansas Stato Temper
ance union has issued the following
manifesto:
“The officers and executive committee
cf the State Temperance union hereby
recommend and urge immediate, ener
getic and persistent law-enforcement
action in every part of the state, follow
ing the example of the citizens of To
peka, Holton and other cities.
"‘The hour for action has come. Let
it begin at once and in the most orderly
and determined manner, without riot,
bloodshed or destruction of property.
Nullification has defiantly trampled the \
laws of the state under foot until pa
tience has ceased to be a virtue. If, un
der existing conditions, the people now
act, not rashly, but vigorously and
simultaneously, every joint and ques
tionable resort can be banished Irom
Kansas.
Organisation Urged.
Let ministerial alliances or local tem
perance committees take the initiative.
Organize. Send out recruiting agents.
Enlist the written support of every
man and woman possible in the com
munity. Call mass meetings. United
ly demand of the officers the immediate,
the absolute, the uncompromising en
forcement of the prohibitory laws. No
tify law-breakers that all violations
must immediately cease and that their
illicit fixtures and goods mast be re
moved from the state forthwith. As
sure them positively that unless these
entirely lawful demands are complied
with faithfully and promptly, the offi
cers will be assisted to the fullest ex
tent that an outraged public can give
assistauce.
Prepare For Primaries.
“Perpetuate these organizations. Pre
pare for the primaries. Look well to
the election of trustworthy officials,
both municipal and county.
“Do not delay! Begin action now
and cease not until every law-breakin
institution has been driven forever from
the state!
“The principal work of the State Tem
perance union is educational, through
the pulpit, press and platform, but the
logical culmination of this work is the
better enforcement of the laws. The
two should proceed hand in hand until
prohibition absolutely prohibits.”

Bears the The Kind Ygu Have Always Bought
: A Jacksonville Man Horribly Maimed
For Life.
; Jacksonville, Feb. 12.—Will King,
who was so severely cut at Tampa Tues
day night while asleep in his room, is
reported to have a good chance of re
covery. But he will be a cripple all of
his life.
The unknown fiend who cut him did
not mean, evidently, to produce death,
bnt to maim for life. The muscles of
both arms were completeh out in two,
which will render them useless. There
is a deep cat on the left chest, which
extends to the back. This cat exposed
the perfect beatings of the man’s heart,
and is a dangerous wound.

of one penetrated rhe flesh of the other
just back of the eaxT The animals were
unable to get free, and the two gentle
men secured a saw and had to saw off
the horn before the cows could be lib
erated. Had these gentlemen not come
along it is quite probable the cows would
have died in this condition.

ATHENS RUM DISPENSARY
City Officials Think Profits Not Large
Enough.
Athens, Ga., Feb. 9.—The commis
sioners of the Athens dispensary have
made their annual report to the city
council. The report shows among other
thiugs^that the sales for 1900 were $78,-
801.35; the gross profits $21,236.19; the
expenses §10,234.04; the net profits §11,-
002.15.
Upon the reception of the report the
question was raised as to the heavy ex
penses, and upon investigation of the
expense account it was found that bot
tles, corks and the like had been charged
up as expenses when, as the council
thought, these items should go into the
stock account.
The report will be returned to the
commissioners to be put in itemized
form.
