In this case general death can be de fined a the rupture of the contract of association between the tissues and or gans by failure of one of the partners— me heart. Therefore, general death ft very different from elemental death. It is merely the starting point of the dis integrative phenomena which lead to elemental death. "Immediately after general death elemental death begins. It is a. com plex and slow process which progres sively destroys the living matter. We ■an not know directly whether or not a tissue is living and by what chemical or physical peculiarities a living being differs from its corpse. “There is no re-agent of life.” Life and Death Mysteries. "Living matter, in a condition of non-manifested life, is apparently sim ilar to non-living matter. We per ceive life only through its manifesta tions. "What is the difference between a dead seed and a seed which will pro duce a large tree? do not know. "We know merely that, immediately after genera] death, the tissues are stll alive, because they manifest life if they, are given back to their normal circu lation. We also know that some time after general death they die, because they are not able to manifest life again, even when placed in normal physiolog ical condition. , "Between the death of the organism and the ehnental death there is a pe ' nod where the tissues are progressively Invaded by cadaveric disintegration. At the beginning, the cadaveric changes we slight, and the tissues can recover >f placed back into normal condition Later, irreversible changes take place and the elemental death—that is-, de struction of the living matter—occurs..

Moore, chief of the U. S. weather bureau, in center, and his aids, who are m convention in Atlanta. Chief of United States Bureau Shies at Venturing Guess on Inaugurai Day Skies. Willis L. Moore, chief of the national weather bureau, stepped from the Washington train early today, cocked a critical eye,at the blue sky and greet ed the reception committee. "Ah. very nice, very nice indeed,’' he remarked. “Perhaps a trace of humid ity, but very fair proportion of ozone. Os course, that smoke—but smoke’s not under my department.” Then, satisfied with the weather fur nished for his reception by C. F. Von Herrmann. Atlanta forecaster, he was driven to the Georgian Terrace for breakfast and a conference with eigh teen weather bureau officials who came from Utah and Florida and Colo rado and other states to discuss ways and means of helping the, farmer tell when to get in his hay or dig a cyclone cellar. The officials have been holding an informal conference for several days and Professor Moore came down to greet them and offer congratulations on their making a 90 per cent success In prognostications for the past year. Uncle Hi Disappointed. Just inside the corridor of the Ter race stood Uncle Hi Suggs, who lives out Battle Hill way and is the best and most voluminous weather prophet in Georgia, barring the salaried ones who work by telegraph and barometer. Un cle Hl has an apparatus of his own, and scorns the scientific devices of the official bureau. But he had come all the way from Battle Hill, successfully ne gotiated the storm doors without loss of his whiskers, and was prepared to join the council of forecasters. He was disappointed to learn that the sessions were executive and he couldn’t get in. "They needn’t think they’ve got any patent on prophesyin’ the weather.” he remarked scornfully. "I’m willin’ to back my predictions agin’ the best they can do any time. Didn’t I write a let ter to the papers last spring sayin’ it would be the rainiest summer on rec ord, and didn't the rain fall and the storms rage until everything in Georgia got mildewed with the wet? "No, I don't depend on no thermome ters. All they can tell you is how hot or how cold it is right now, and what’s the use of knowin’ that? I've got a frost-bit heel I caught with Gen’l Gor don in '64, and every time it com mences to swell up and blister, I know we’re in for cold, and maybe snow. I've got a goosebone that gives a certain sign of rain, and whenever that fails me my rheumatism is certain to h ist a warnin’. I seen a squirrel this mawnln' layin' up nuts in a hollow tree and a whole passel'of birds flyin’ South, and both of them’s unfailin’ signs of a hard winter. I’m goin’ to stop by tow n and lay me in a couple of tons of coal this very day.” Professor Moore declined to be drawn into a guessing match with HI, though he cast no aspersions on the amateur forecaster’s prognostica tions. "Really. 1 wouldn't venture to say whether the winter will be mild or cold.” lie said. "We have developed the silence until we cun send out forecasts for u week ahead with excellent sue t-ess, but that Is as far as we attempt te go now I believe the time wIII conn when we can predict (or u month ahead THE ATt.AffTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.

The Balkan war has made it practi cally Impossible for the depositors in the defunct Neal bank to receive another dividend on their deposits in time for Christmas purposes, according to a statement of Judge John S, Candler, one of the attorneys for the receivers of the bank, today. He said the remaining assets of the bank were some lands in Alabama and some lands In Cuba. The Alabama lands are being advertised for sale, but it is not likely that a deal will be closed in the immediate future. Nego tiations were well under way to dis pose of the Cuban lands to a French capitalist, but the Balkan war came along, disturbing business conditions in Europe and French capitalists who had beers interested dropped, all thought of setuling funds out of Europe. Judge Candler said that to dispose of the lands at a public sal* would be a foolish sacrifice of valuable property. There had been some chance of selling the property in Cuba until the Cuban insurrection started. GIRL OUTDOES £OYS AT CARPENTER WORK ST. PAUL, MINN., Nov. 14.—1 n the advanced class in manual training taught by L. A. Harmsberger at the Central High school are many youths w’ith the sure hand to join and saw and plane and hammer with the best of cabinetmakers, but strangely enough the star student of the class Is not a boy, but a girl. She Is Lorraine Cam eron, the seventeen-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Cameron. with accuracy. And while ft is possi ble that we may reach the point where we can predict for the coming ®nnni*r or winter, I would not venture to assert that this is probable. "The forecasts of the weather bureau have been correct nine times out of ten in the past year. The department has only recently been brought up to that efficiency. While there are kicks from disgruntled persons who say the bu reau is always wrong and ought to be abolished, these do not come from those whose lives and property depend on our forecasts. These have learned how accurate the department really is, and understand that 90 per cent is far from being guesswork.” "Would you be willing to predict the weather for Woodrow Wilson’s Inau guration?" he was asked timidly. Professor Moore looked pained. Per haps he remembered the spring of four years ago when the forecast was "fair" aftd several regiments of troops and thousands of others were snowbound on their w’uy to Washington and nearly froze to death. But he laughed and turned away. "The 4lli of Mui It is an uncertain reason," lie i epiled. "I’ve, got to go now." • Wedding Garments of 70 Years Ago Become Aged Woman's Shroud Body of Mrs. Betsy Patterson Buried in Casket She Had Made 30 Years. MOULTRIE, GA.. Kov. 14.—Shroud ed in her Wedding trousseau of 70 years ago, and incased in a casket for w'hich she had the lumber sawed from a cypress tree growing on her farm 30 years ago, the body of Mrs. Betsy Pat terson has just been buried at Sandy Bluff cemetery, near Nashville, m Ber rien county. Mrs. Patterson died at her old home stead near Sparks, where she had re sided continuously for 50 years. She was nearly 90 years old, and was well known throughout Berrien county. Her more intimate acquaintances reverently ‘called her "Aunt Betsy.” For three score and ten years—-the allotted span of life—Mrs. Patterson had carefully preserved the garments she wore when a happy young bride in her teens. It was her often expressed »wish that upon her death these gar ments should constitute her shroud, and relatives and friends in charge of her funeral acceded to this desire. BRANCH POLICE STATIONS URGED "The Georgian’s editorial on ‘Police Problems’ calls attention to conditions open to great improvement. The du plication of ‘beats’ by policemen and the various inspectors is attracting at tention In all the leading cities of the country as unsystematic and a waste of money. “The idea of having sub-police sta tions in fire engine houses is practical and very economical. It Is being plan ned in some cities to have health sta tions in these Houses as well.” This was the statement made today by Herbert R. Sands, the municipal ex pert of New’ York, who has been em ployed by the Atlanta Chamber of Com merce to make an investigation of the city government. Candler Favors Plan. Acting Mayor John S. handler said today that, he was confident the Idea of having sub-police stations in a num ; ber of the fire stations would be car ried out in another year. “our police station is too far away from the greater part of our city," he said. "Our new fire and police signal system will make it a very simple mat ter to have sub-stations In several of the fire stations. The ditliculties in po licing our growing city demand such a step.” The officials over the sanitary and water meter iimpectors, however, were not very enthusiastic over the sugges tion that these inspectors should do regular police duty. They insisted that they have too much work for the In spectors undvr the present sjstem. !HESffIHERD IN MNME Ten Thousand Cheer Senator at Big Democratic Jubilee in Central City. MACON, GA., Nov. 14.—The cele bration of the victory of the Democratic party by the people of Macon last night was an event unsurpassed In the an nals of the city. A parade two miles long preceded a jubilee rally at the city auditorium, where speeches w’ere made by men of prominence in the national Democratic ranks. A significant feature of the celebra tion was the reception accorded Sen ator Hoke Smith, of Atlanta. All along the route of the procession he was en thusiastically hailed, and at the audi torium he was given a tremendous ova tion. His speech kept the audience in applause throughout. Other speakers were Senator A. O. Bacon, of Macon; Congressman Thom as W. Hardwick, of Sandersville; Rep resentative-elect Pleasant A. Stovall, of Savannah, and' Dupont Guerry, of Ma con. Congressman Charles L. Bdrtlett was called out of the city and could not attend. More than 10,000 people com prised the speakers’ audience, but less than half that number were able to hear what was said. Parade Through City. The parade moved from Third and | Cherry streets at 7;30 o’clock and | passed through the principal business and residential streets. Every homeSn ( Georgia avenue, College street and Or- ; ange street, the fashionable residence section, was brilliantly illuminated and decorated. Nearly all of the principal builmngs in the business section -were also illuminated. There were more than 400 autos in the parade, many from nearby towns; several thousand men bearing torches, 50 floats and as many other business vehicles, and the auto machines of the fire department. Nearly all of the vehicles were hand somely decorated. , Fireworks, Too. The city ordinance against the dis charge of fireworks was suspended for the night, and for several hours the streets echoed with the deafening deto nations of torpedoes and glowed with ' the glare of luridly colored candles. The celebration of the Democratic success at the polls by the people of Macon was participated In by practi cally every resident of the city who was able to leave home for the early part of the night. For several hours all of the downtown streets were congest ed and thousands were unable to obtain admission to the auditorium. Telegrams from Wilson and Marshall were read to the meeting, expressing disappointment that they were unable to attend. t <% the night of Grover Cleveland’s first election Macon celebrated, but old', timers say that that occasion is dimmed by comparison with the affair of last night.
