I Macon Tol«grapb.
Capt. D» &>' Purse of Savannah
be has found by actual scientif-
* and practical tests that Indian
lC flize or common field com as
wn in Georgia contains 2 per
eat more sucrose, or crystalizable
Igar matter, than the sugar cane of
Louisiana. He has had corn grown
; n Lowndes county, in Thomas, Ef
fingham and Chatham, subjected to
the tests, and it has all proven very
valuable as a producer of merchant
able sugar, yielding 14 per cent.
The sugar producing corn is cul
tivated in a little different manner
from the corn ordinarily grown for
<rrain, tiie cultivation w hot
more expensive.
The corn will not be ■& substitute
for sugar cane, but will be an addi
tion to it, giving the sugar mills
work all during the summer, when
they would otherwise be idle.
Capt. Pur.-:e says that northern
capitalists are now interested and
that in a short while mills will very
likely be established in the sugar
cane growing belt of the southland
one of the first to be established will
be in south Georgia. The railroads
are giving every encouragement to
the undertaking.
The enthusiasm of Capt. Puree
communicates itself to his hearers
when he is talking on this subject,
and one is instantlj convinced that
an important discovery has been
made. All of the details are not yet
ready to be given to the public, but
they will be watched for with inter
est.
Capt. Curse says he will soon go
to Washington and seek to induce
the government to spend some mon
ey establishing experiment stations
in Georgia and Florida for corn and
cane, to develop theip sugar produc
ing qualities. He thinks if half the
money spent on experiments with
beet sugar had been applied to cane,
a great deal more of value would
have been accomplished.
In discussing this matter, Capt.
Purse said:
“The railroads are anxious to see
the sugar cane industry developed,
as it should be, in Georgia, because
they not only realize that it will be
a great thing for Georgia farmers,
but that it will be profitable for the
railroads. The pine forests are fall
ing before the timberman's axe, and
lumber freights cannot continue as
they have been. When this industry
has finished its day something else
must be ready to take its place. The
sugar mill is the thing. It produces
something that the whole world
needs and must hav8. By the com
bination of corn and cane we can ri
val any portion of the world, because
we can make the finest kind of sugar
at 1 cent per pound, or $1 per hun
dred. The sugar will be just as
much a money crop as cotton, as
there is always a demand for it. In
1899 the United States paid foreign
countries $94,964,120 for sugar im
ported for domestic consumption. It
took nearly half of the cotton which
this nation exported to pay for the
sugar we bought from foreign coun
tries, and the prospect is that if this
thing continues we will in. less than
ten years have to give our entire cot
ton crop for enough sugar to do our
people. X believe that corn and cane,
which belong to one family, will rev
olutionize things, and the corn and
cane belt of the south will in a short
time become the most important of
the sugar producing countries.”

the family.
Weep not, dear parents,
For the lois of your dear son,
For he has gone to the bright home above
Where sorrow and pain never enter.
Oh, loved ones, whose hearts are grieved.

And when this life of parting is o’er J
May you meet him on the other shore.

Pulaski May Get a Slice of Twiggs.
A prominent gantleman from
Twiggs county said to a Telegraph
reporter recently that there will very
likely be introduced in the next leg
islature a bill to partition Twiggs
county between the four neighbor
ing counties of Bibb, Jones, Wilkin
son and Pulaski. In speaking of the
matter, he said:
‘‘Since the records of the county
were destroyed in the fire which re
cently consumed the court house, I
notice that there is a very strong
sentiment in favor of doing away
with the county and dividing it be
tween the four neighboring coun
ties. Of coarse there will be some
objection to such a plan, but from
the few people with whom I have
talked I am impressed with the be
lief that such a thing is likely r I do
not believe there would be any op
position in either of the four coun
ties which would, under the plan,
receive a slice of the good old coun
ty of Twiggs.”—Macon Telegraph.
Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan drew his
check the other day for $23,127,-
016.67, in connection with the ac
quisition of the Central Railroad of
New Jersey. A few years ago this
would have been regarded as a most
remarkable business incident; but in
these days of gigantic combinations
and billion-dollar trusts, a check for
$23, 000,000 doesn’t attract a great
deal of attention.

“Is this Mr. Keely, the inven

“It is.”
“I am' very happy to meet you.
I was one of the few who believed
in the realty of your wonderful
mo ter, and now that there is no
longer any reason for concealment
through fear than some other man
may rob you-of the fruits of yonr
years of soil, may I ask if you will
unfold to me the real secret of its
operations.”
“Certainly. There is no diffi
culty' in understanding it when
you apprehend the principles up
on which it is based. In a few
words and in simple language, the
motor was the application of har
monic vibrations to mechanical
uses through the disintegration of
the etheric forces inherent in the
constitution of matter, this being
ejected by the deplorization of
the undulatory dynamic impulses,
or, to put it more plainly the dis-
cerption and divelication of the
efflogistic genotomies recoiling up
on the planipetalous fastiga at the
moment when the etheric j acula-
tions acquired sufficient velocity
to effect molecular disintegration
and render possible the applica
tion of polar sympathy.”
