wo desire to c»U pirtlrqlir attention to the Hlrt-Grad- Engines w« are
turning out and to aajr that we guarantee without hesitation that, there
ta no better engine of ita class put on the market today In the United
States. The perfectly balanced valve makes It of high value, and the
.workmanship being drat class, and a substantially put up engine,
adapts It particularly to work requiring hard service. We are fur
nishing them to almost all kinds of power plants and particularly la
.it being used largely In saw mill, planing mill, oil mill, cotton mill and
ginning plants. Wo art prepared to demonstrate to prospective' cus

"It was In February. 1900," said Mr.
Taft In relating tho personal narrative
of his resignation from the bench and
entry Into public life which in eight
years has brought him to the presiden
cy. "that in the court house In Cincin
nati'! received from Mr. McKinley a
message which road like this: 'If you
have no other engagenvm;. you will do
me tf great favor by calling on me In
Washington some time next week.' •'
"I did not know of any vacancy exist
ing on tho supreme court bench at that
time, but I went to Washington Just the
same. Arriving nt the white house I
was ushered Into the cabinet room, and
there I met tlie president.
" 'Judge I would like to have you go
to the Philippines.' I said: ‘Mr. Presi
dent. what do you mean by going to the
Phlllplnes?' He replied Wf must estab
lish a government there and I would like
for you to help.
" 'But Mr. President, v I said. ’I am
norry we have got the Philippines. I
don't want them and I think you'ought
to have some man who Is more in syra-'
pathy with the situation.'
" 'You don't want thorn any less than
I do,' replied tho president. 'But we
have got them and In dealing with them
I think I can trust tho man who didn't

Yesterday afternoon Officer Jenktnc,
who waa stationed at th* VtnevlU*

running down Franks’* alley, and to
learn what the cause waa he hurried
through the alley to find a negro named
Sam Clay bleeding profusely from cuts
about tho head. II* endeavored to get
Knm to tell him who had don* the cut
ting. but the cut man waa so excited
ihSt all he could aay waa that a man
named George hud cut him while in a
house near Klnnctt's .wood yard.
Officer Jenkins had the negro aent to
the Macon Hospital, while h« set about
to And the man who did the cutting. AU
he could find out was that th* evldenc*
pointed to th* fact that a number of
negroes, and among them Bain, had
gathered In the hous* for til* purpose of
playing either skin or craps, and that a
quarrel ensued between tne men and
Sam got the benefit of the knife.
At tlie hospital Dr. Eider said that th*
man waa cut badly in tne head and also
in the arm. and that his cuts war*
sever*.
owing to the fact that all the negroes
engaged in tlie game Immediately scat
tered a* soon as tlie cutting was done,
and tho name of George is all that tho
officer could get. the chances of finding
him were difficult and few. It Is possi
ble that wlum Sam gets over his scar*
an easy matter.
