Over $150,000 worth of planos
were shipped to China in 19086, yet
the New York Commerclal hears of
no act in retaliation.
Surely the Connecticut statesman l
who advocates the death penalty for ,
grafting, laments the Washington '
Post, has no idea of the hole he would |
make in the population statistics of
the country, '
Suggests the Montgomery Adver-'
ticer: When we read of the various l

A New York exchange has printed |
the story of a young man who ‘“‘shot ‘
himself ifn the basement.” Presnm
ably, says the Washington Post, the |
would-be suicide noticed how many
men made a botch of it by shooting
themselves in an empty attic. }
Says Mrs, Cobden-Sunderson, the |
English suffragette: ‘“American wo-i
men are not interested in anythlng'
but themselves; they probably would
not know how to use the ballot.”‘
And probably also it is these very
faults that makes them so attrac

As sizgns of general prosperity are
the rises in the prices of bread, meat,
coal and other necessaries of living.
A reason assigned for this by econo
mists is the lessening of the value of
gold because of its inereased produc
tion. But a still better reason for it,
observes the Philadelphia Record, is I
in the trusts for arbitrarily maintain- |
ing prices. &4 o
“Your Honor, I am a human dere
lict; T goess T-am better off in jail
than giflstde of 1t So 1 just take
anoth®c, plea of guilty.” This is
what Johw, Kehoe, alias Kelly, a sev
on-tlmog' ,nvlcted burglar, said to
Judge Roaa-k,s in General Sessions
the other day, elates the New York
World. “I am afraid Dburglaring
doesn't pay,” he added reflectively as
they were taking him to his eell,

" If as a result of further aero
nautic experiment it shall become
established that cities, armies and
fortifications may be destroyed by
aerial attack, thinks the Philadelphia
Record, it will do more to promote
amity and prevent war than could
be accomplished at a thousand ses
sions of The Hague International
Congress. (R
“We have appropriated,” says the |
chairman of the Senate's Committee
on Military Affairs, ‘‘nearly SIOO,-
000,000 in carrying out the Endicott
Board suggestions regarding the for
tifications of our seacoast lines,. We
have expensive emplacements, ex
pensive guns—and no men, or a
grossly inadequate number of men,
with which to man them, As an
actual fact, the guns already in place
are nearly three times as many as
there are men to handle and man
them for service,”
The healing power of music was
the subject of a lecture delivered in
London by Dr. G. Norman Meachen, ‘
who described how different melo-l
dies can be used in the treatment of |
ceriain disorders, ‘‘There,is a dis
tinet connection between music and
medicine,” said Dr. Meachen, “dating
from the first recorded instance of
musical treatment—when David
played before Saul! to soothe his mad
ness.” The lecture was illustrated
with music, and Dr. Meachen ex
plained the effect on patients of the
different pieces, Thus, Mendels
sohn's - “Wedding March” quickens
heart beating and respiratory move- l
ments; the seventeenth century “Ta- !
rantula Dance” is good for the bite |
of the tarantula spider; Chopin's
“Nocturne” in E flat, and one of
Stavenhagen's “Pastcrales” are able
to soothe excited brains and induce
somnolence, while Godlard's “Bdf
Courant” dissipates nervous wearl
ness. “Music” explained the doctor,
“enlarges the Dblood-vessels, and
therefore causes the blood to flow
more freely, whereby the digestjon
is stimulated. Thus the good e::ct
4 ween of an orchestra at meals.”

The department of justice at Wash- |

vilian teamsters in government em
ploy who are quartered at Fort Ogle

imprisoned for not working on the
Georgia roads. A question of the right
of the local authorjties to require the
men to work on the roads is at issue, |
the Washington authorities holdl‘ng4l
that the teamsters were bound by con- i
tract to serve the national government |
and that the attempt of the local au- |

A. M. Soule of the State College of
Agriculture, will start on its journey
of 3,000 miles over the stata at

garding agriculture. The baggage car
will be filled with exhibits, Two nas

Falling Off in Tag Sales.
According to reports made to the
agricultural department the fertilizer
tag sale is falling off considerably,
this spring, from what it was last year,
indicating a curtailment of acreage be
ing devoted to cotton and in conse
qence a diminution in the amount of
money to be raised from the sale
of these tags. L
The eleven agricultural schools
about the state and the SIOO,OOO agri
cultural college at Athens, which has
Justy completed such a successful “cot
ton school” are supported out of these
proceeds.
To increase this fund a bill is now
pending in the house, which will raise
the price of these fertilizer tags from
the present rate of ten cents a ton
to twenty-five cents a ton, therefore
more than doubling the sum to be
secured.
One of the chief fertilizers used in
' (teorgia, and throughout the south, is
cotton seed meal which serves in a
dual capacity of being a good fertil
izer filler and in addition when mix
ed with cotton seed hulls becomes the
best known cattle feed. All of these
district schools and the agricultural
collage at Atheng urge the use of it
both as a fertilizer and cattle feed.
The state department of agricultm’e
has sold only $6,405 worth of fertilzer
inspection tags since January 1, asi
compared with sales aggregating sll,-
458 for the same period of 1907, a fall
ing off of $5,0563. ¢
As January and February are the
big months for sales of these tags, this
fact is considered as bearing out the
recent statement coming from the de
partment that there is prospect of
large decrease in the sale and use of
fertilizers as compared with last year.
WESLEY MEMORIAL CHURCH
Boon to be Built in Atlanta, is Am
nouncement of Building Committee.
Announcement was made through
the daily press last week that Wes
ley Memorial Church, the institutional
church of Georgia Methodism, will
soon be under construction. This an
nouncement comes from the building
committee of the church, and will be
read with interest by the people of
Georgia. The great movement looking
to the erection of an institutional
church, a hospital and a dormitory for
girls was inaugursted in Atlanta on
June 16, 1907, by seven of the bisheps
of the Methodist Episcoal Church,
South, who came at the invitation of
the executive committee of the Wes
ley Memorial Enterprises. On that
day more than $200,000 was subscribed
and since that time other subscrip
tions have been made from Atlanta,
other cities and from rural communi
ties of the state,
Wseley Memorial Hospital, which
was opened about two years ago, and
which was a part of thig undertaklnk,
is doing splendid work, and is favor
ably known throughout the state. It
has been enlarged since the beginning
of this movement by the addition of
an annex, and from time to time fuf
ther additions will be made. T
dormitory for girls will be built
a later date. This dormitory will fut
nish a comfortable home for girls wh
cannot afford to pay the prices dé
manded by the best class of boardipg
houses. The church, on which work
will soon be begun, will be planned
and equipped in accordance with mod
ern ideas of institutional /church
work. |
The building of this church, ‘dormi
tory and hogyital is of interest to
the people of Goorgia outside of At
lanta, because of the fact that the
work will be especially among those
who go to Atlanta from rural districts
and towns and cities of the state. The.
church will be fitted with attractions
that will draw young people fromj
dangerous places of amusement; the
hospital is open to people of the en-j
tire state, and the dormitory will care
for young women who go to Atlanta
from other places. Altogether the‘
movements is one whose influence will
be felt throughout all of Georgia. |
The purpose of this movement lsi
explained in detail in a booklet which
has been issued and which can be!
secured upon request from the secre-{
tary of the executive committee of the
Wesley Memorial Enterprise, Candler
building, Atlanta.
The executive committee of the en
terprise is as follows: ‘R." J. Guinn,
chairman; T. K. Glenn, vice chairman;
Forrest Adair, Asa G. Candler, E. V.
Carter, M. M. Davies, C. J. Haden, R.
A. Hemphill, J. G. Lester, R. F. Mad
dox, James L. Mayson, Dr. C. E. Mur
phy, J. A. McCord, H. Y. McCord, J.
N. McEachern, presiding elder of At
lanta district, and pastor Wesley Me.
morial Church.
The building of this church will
mark a great step fordward in rollg-l
sous and moral life, and the peoplo'
of Georgia will undoubtedly give their
Joyal support to this church and ity
fstitutions which are planned for
great helpfulness to the people, e.'
pecially the young people, and for can
fag for the sick. :

Bill Pending in House.
RECALLS OLD SCANDAL
Persons Who Would Surreptitiously
Give Out Crop Mews to Be Branded
as Criminals—Debate Was En
livened by a Clash.
A Washington special says: At the
close of a day of excitement in the
house of representatives an amend
ment was added to the penal code bill
Tuesday making it a criminal offense
for any officer or emp'oyee of the gov
ernment to give out advance informa
tion regarding any crop statistics au
thorized by law to be prepared. The
original amendment was by Mr. Burle
son of Texas, who made a strong plea
for its passage, but a substitute by Mr.
Sherley of Kentucky, with a brief ad
dition by Mr. Olmstead of Pennsylva
nia was accepted. The necessity for
its adoption was conceded by nearly
every member who addressd the house
and its safe running of the gauntlet
was greeted with applause. The amend
ment was ag follows:
"“Whoever, being an officer or an em
ployee of the United States or a per
son acting for or on hehalf of the Unit
ed States in any capacity, under or
by virtue of the authority of any de
partment or officer thereof, and while
holding such office, employment or po
sition, shall, by virtue of the office, em
ployment or position held by him, be
come possessed of any Information
which might exert an influence upon
or affect the market value of any prod
uct of the soil grown witkin the United
States, which information is, by law or
by the ruleg and practices of the de
partment or office, required to be with
held from publication until a fixed time
and shall willfully impart, directly or
indirectly, such information or any part
thereof, to any person not entitled un
der the law or the rules and practices
of the department or office to receive
the same, or shall, before such infor
mation is made public through regular
official channels, directly or indirectly,
speculate in any such product respect
ing which he has thus become possess
ed of such information by buying or
selling the same in any quantity, shall
be fined not more than SIO,OOO or im
prisoned not more than ten years, or
‘both,
~ Earlier in the day interest attached
to a tilt between Mr. Dalzell of Penn
sylvania and Mr. Ranicll of Texas on
the latter’'s amendmernt prohibiting sen- |
ators or members 4f the house being
employed by public service corpora
tions. Believing that Mr. Randell had
insinuated that he represented such
corporations at this time, Mr. Dalzeil
grew indignant and declared that he
had not been employed in such ca—'
pacity for twenty years.
The climax of the debate came when
Mr. Clark of Missouri announced,
amidst thunderous democratic ap
plause, that William J. Bryan would
be nominated at the Denver conven
tion, while Mr. Bouteli of I!linois arous
ed the members on his side of the
house to a high pitch of enthusiasm by
stating that Speaker Cannon would be
the republican nominee at Chicago in
June.
After the Dalzell-Randel! colloquy,
NMr. Payne of New York, the minority
leader, denounced the Randell amend
ments. He said he had full confidence
in the character of the men sent to
congress. He said they were picked
men, of intelligence and integrity.
“And,” said Mr. Payne, with a degree
of sarcasm, “l don't like to see a gen
tleman who happens to have a seat !
here get up with an amendment like
this that casts a slur upon gentlemen
that hold places in this honorable body
seeking to prevent them ever engaging
even in the average and ordinary avo
cations in life.”

Forger, Who Salled Under Many Alias
es, Followed tc Mayport, Fla,,
and Nabbed by Detective. :
Tracked through many states and
sailing under many different names, T.
Nordstrom, a former bank clerk of As
toria, Oregon, was captured at May
port, Fla., Thursday night. He is
wanted at Chicago, where, posing as
the representative of F. A. Cole &
Sons, wealthy wholesale grocers of his
home city, he forged the name of J.
Roy Beanett, cashier of the Astoria
Bank, and casihed a draft for $15,000
at the First National Bank.
From Chicago Nordstrom fled and
continued his cmooked ‘dealings In
many cities throughout the United
States. During all of his operations
since the Chicago forgery he has been
closely followed a Pinkerton detective.
This detective who located the man
and planned his capture when his pri
vate yacht Kathryn was boarded as
she lay in midstream off Mayport by
a party of officers. Nordstrom was
taken from his bunk and hustled to
Jacksonville. From Chicago, where
he was C. A. Cole, Nordstrom appear
ed in various cities under othar rames.
At San Francisco, where he was track
ed, he operated under the name of B.
F. Kavanatigh. Under this name also
he carried on crooked deals at Galves
ton, Texas, and at. New .Orleans. From
New Orleans heé was followed to Bruns
wick, Ga., where he had dealings with
the Brunswick Bank and Trust com
pany as F. M. Wood. The forgery of
the draft on the Chicago bank was
committed on December 3rd last.
From that time untii December 13
Nordstrom was followed over miles of
territory, and finally traced to Bruns
wick.
Here he lived in luxury for a time
and purchased from Frank D. Aiken,
president of the Brunswick Bank and
Trust company, the vyacht, aboard
which he was baginning a world tour
when captured. From Brunswick
Nordstrom went to Jacksonville aboard
the boat, whose name was changed
from Lucile to Kathryn.
On the return trip Nordstrom was
positively identified as the man want
ed for the big forgery by photographs
in the possession of the detective and
by the fact that his right hand is bad
ly disfigured. The first finger is mis
shapen as the result of some accident,
and the second finger is cut off at the
second joint.
When he saw that to deny his iden
tity would ‘gain him nothing, Nord
strom admitted his guilt and said he
would submit peacefully.
