Former Federal Judge Jam.* H.
Blount, who haa recently returned from
hla poat In the Philippine!, addressed
the mombera of the legislature at the
eapltol Monday nlitht on the subject of
selt-gorernment tor Ibe Philippine*.
Judge Blount made mine startling
ataleinenta In regard to native condi
tion* and during the evening look oc-
caalon to acore the preaent admltilitra-,
lion and It! policy toward the Inhabi
tant! of the lalanda. One of the moat
lm|«>rtanl statementn he made waa
when he declared that the Klllpino* are
perfectly capable of aelf-governtnent
and should be given the same rights
und privileges allowed to the Cuban*.
The npeakcr quoted that plank of
the platform adopted by the laat Dem
ocratic national convention In regard
to the Philippine policy of the party,
which pledged the Democrat* to give
Independence to the Islands when they
were In n position to take It.
"And.” continued Mr. Blount. "If the
Democratic i>arty again so declares In
the national convention of l*<M, and
carrle! the country In the presidential
election of that year, those rock-ribbed
and ancient shore* of Asia will behold
an Independent republic lifting
head from the depths of the China aea
before this country la a decade older."
He referred to the possibility of Bry
an'* nomination and election, and ex-
pleaned himself as heartily In favor
of It.
Judge Blount referred to the Bacon
resolutions, and stated that had ttrv
been passed by the senate when the
Paris treaty was ratified In I*** the
outbreak of 1*H would have been in
vented.
The gravest charge which was
brought against the administration hy
the sistaker was that the local constab
ulary In trying to rid the Islands of
Imndlttl are pursuing the same policy
of reconeentratlon which made Wey-
Icr's name a word of hatred and re
proach In Cuba In UD7, and by this
means thousands of Innocent people
are subjected to the grossest outrages
Hnd the loss of their property without
due process of law.
Judge Blount waa frequently .Inter
rupted by outbursts of applause during
hla sperh, and at the conclusion was
given an impromptu ovation by bis
hearers.

SAYS KISSING IS AS BAD

Hprellll to The Ororglan. ,
Augusta, Ga, Aug., 14.—Dr. E. C.
Goodrich, secretary of the Augusta
board of bealtj), baa given out a state
ment In which he advocates putting
the lid on the kissing vogue. He ad
mits that It la not within tho power of
the board to pass a law prohibiting
kissing, but thinks It should be put
under the ban, or, If cooing lovers or
husband and wife should Indulge In
thle luxury they should kiss on tho
forehead, cheek or hand and never on
the lip*.
Spreads Disease.
There Is nothing that tend* to
spread contagious disease more thai\
kissing," said Dr. Goodrich. “A per
son may have all kinds of germs In
IiIh system, and upon kissing an
other party transmit these dlseuse ma
kers.
People have always kissed and will
continue to do so, but kissing should
be prohibited by law. Tha record*
prove that kisses, transmit as much
disense mi mosquitoes. No mailer how
much young people or marired people
love each other, they ehould never kiss.
If they must do It, never kies on the
lips, either on (he cheek or forehead."
Should Not Kiss Bablts.
"Another thjng which should never
be allowed, la ‘the kissing of babies by
negro nurses. 1 often see It done on
our principal promenades, and quite a
few llmce 1 have remonstrated %lth
and advised the nurses. Parents should
he exceedingly careful along this line.
The deulh of ninny Infants cun be trac
ed to a contagious disease which was

THE FIRST AUTHENTIC PICTURE
OF MARIE CORELLI, AUTHORESS
%/IJIllll#
First authentic portrait of Marie Corelli, which the English author
furnished for her latest novel, but would not permit English newspapers
to reproduce.
Special Cable—Copyright.
London, Aug. 14.—The h>ng drawn
out light which Miss Marie Corelli hits
been making to protect her personal
modesty and at the same time not In
terfere with the publicity of her fiction,
has taken a new turn with the publica
tion of her latest booft, '‘The Treasurer
of Heaven," which h'n Just been given
to the booksellers.
At laat she has condescended, at the
special request of the publishers, Ar
chibald Constable rif Cp., to allow a. real
photograph of hel-sdffuo go before the
public, it appears a s' the frontispiece
of the new book, which la her sixteenth.
Even more surprising, as a bit of
vanity, is the "author’s note," which
roes with the frontispiece In tho Eng-
lsh edition of "The Treasures of
Heaven." She declares that a portrait
of herself waa taken In the spring of
year and she explains her reel
ings ubout It.
Mist Corelli on Physiognomies
"I am somewhat reluctant," ahe
writes, "to seo it so placed, because It
has nothing whatever to do with the
story, which is told in the following
pages, beyond being a faithful likeness
of the author, who is responslUJe toy
this 'and many other previous books
which huve had the good fortune to
meet with a friendly reception from
the rending public. Moreover, 1 am not
quite able to convince myself i*.at ijiy
pictured personality can liijve any in
terest for my rcuders, as it h)8 al-
wuys seemed to me that an author's
real being Is more disclosed In his or
her work than in any portrayed pre
sentment of mere physiognomy.
"But, owing to the fact that various
gross, and 1 think I may say libellous.
fictitious misrepresentations of 'me
have been freely und umvarovntedly
circulated throughout Great Britain,
the colonies and America by ceruun
’lower’ sections of the nlct<-ial press,
which, with a xeai worthy / a letter
and kinder cause, have striven by this
means to alienate my readers from
me, it appears to tny publishers ad
visable that an authentic likeness of
myself, .is 1 truly am today, sluiuld
now be Issued, In order to prevent any
further misleading of the public by
fraudulent inventions."
Then Miss Corelli tells how she con
cealed her Identity from the London
photographers for whom she posed, by
using the name of.a "lady friend" and
having the various proofs %?nt to he*
address.
Snapped as an Ordinary Peraon.
"That I thus elected to be photo
graphed as an unknown rather than a
known peraon." .Miss Corelli, explains
further, "was In order that no extra
pains .should be taken In my behalf,
but that I should be treated just as an
ordinary stranger would be treated,
with no lees, but at the same time cer
tainly no more care."
"For the benefit of those who may
feel any further ctirloslty on the sub
ject,” Miss Corelli writes that no cor-
tralts In any way resembling her have
been published, anywhere, with the ex
ception of a picture taken In her own
house by an amateur photographer.
This remarkable-"note" ends tnus:
"My objection to this sort of 'pict
ure popularity' has already been pub
licly stated, and 1 here repeat and em
phasize it. And 1 venture to ask my
readers who have so generously en
couraged me by their warm and con
stant appreciation of my literary ef
forts, to try and understand tha spirit
In which the objection Is made. It is
simply that to myself the personal
'Heir of me la nothing, and should be
rlghtlv speaking, nothing to any one
outside the circle ot my home and inv
Intimate friends: while my work and
the keen desire to Improve In that
work, so that by my work alone I may
become united in sympathy and love
to my renders, whoever and wherever
they may be, constitutes for me th*
Everything of Life."
Attack on Countess of Warwick.
Permission to use the photograph
was refused to English papers anil
maguxIn.'H by the publishers, who said.
•It Is Impossible; • It is out of th*
question: the photograph Is priceless.
It will be absolutely impossible for any
newspaper to attempt to obtain tho
photograph for reprouuctlon."
"The Trea«ures of Heaven" Is tre
ating something of a sensation. Those
who have read it have discovered a
thinly veiled attack on the Countess of
Warwick. It also attacks the London
Times declaring that this newspaper
is financed by the Rothschilds and run
by an American syndicate.

MR. CALVIN ADVOCATES BILL
FOR AG RICULTURALSCHOOLS
A few daye ago the house passed,
by a large majority, the bill of Mr.
Perry, of Hall, which contemplates the
erection In each congressional district
of a school of agriculture.
A Georgian reporter asked Mr. Cal
vin, ot Richmond, as to the scoi>e and
the probable results of such a system
of schools. Mr. Calvin, who had given
the meaeure enthusiastic support, re
plied.
• "As staled by Colonel Perry In hla
etrong and eloquent speech, Governor
Terrail had early pressed upon the at
tention of the general assembly the
necessity for suen a cordon of schools,
but It was so new and so broad a
suggestion that neither the legislature
nor the people were prepared for It.
Colonel T“crry took hold of the Idea
at the psychological moment. He
had his own clean-cut conceptions of
the subject, and spiritedly addressed
him,elf to th* development of the
same.
At th# 8upreme Moment.
'I am a great believer In the Scrip
tural ‘fulness of time.' The Conner
agricultural college bill Was brought
forward at the supreme moment.
"The historj- of the bill In the house
Interests one deeply. I do not recall a
measure, except the Gordon statue bill,
which had so little promise, eo little
hope of success, on the day It was
called up. A whisper went round the
house that the bill had ngt the re
motest chance of even a complimentary
vote. Indeed, the committee on agri
culture reported It favordbly more out
of regard for Colonel Perry's Intense
earnestness than for any other reason.
It was gravely suggested that the blit
might stand in the way of the 'greater'
agricultural college to which the whole
lieople are looking with so great ex-
jiectancy.
"The fact ie we have gone back to
first principles—educating from the top
down. However much the plan may be
animadverted against. It Is capable of
most satslfactory results, as shown by
the past In this state.
An Early Impetus.
"In 1*21 the general assembly ap
propriated half a million dollars for
the establishment of an academy of
high grade In each county In the
state. The academies capped the sys
tem of classical schools which flour
ished'In the country sparse and Ip the
city full. They were a connecting link
between those schools and the colleges
of the elate. They afforded boys and
girls, rapidly approaching fhelr ma
jority, opportunity to obtain a train
ing which stood them In hand for self-
culture, If It so chanced they had
not the means to go to some college or
university.
"Tire thought In those daye was that
as to the great body of the people the
state would aid the children of thoso
only who could not themselves edu
cate them. The state provided In n
meaeure for the.few through the agen
cy of the academies. The classical
schools, referred to, were, of course,
private achools, but thousands of wor
thy and ambitious boys and glrla
whose parent* could not contribute a
perhy to those schools, were permit
ted t» drink at the fountain and later
by their career, honored the courtesy
extended them.
Educated the Masses.
"That system of education did this
for Georgia. Through the few who
were carefully trajned and fully
equipped she educated the masses; that
Is, thoroughly Informed them on all
public question*—th* genius of a re
publican form of government, the
rights of the States in the territories,
the rights which the states yielded to
the general government and the great
and Indestructible right of local self-
government which the state* reserved
to themselves.
"That system of schools turned out
young men, who, It they were ambi
tious of becoming soldiers, were sel
dom, If ever, rejected at West Point,
except for physical disability. That
fact alone telle of the thoroughness of
the work done In those achools.
"The Perry bill proposes an agri
cultural school In each congressional
district, and appropriate* the fees
from the Inspection ot fertilizers, oil,
etc., except such amounts now other
wise appropriated.
"The concession of the fertilizer fees
was most striking evidence of the
B rudual and masterful hold which the
III took upon the house as the debate
progressed. It 'la rarely that speeches
control In the disposition of a hill in
cases where the house manifests, at the
outset, a persuasion unfavorable to the
measure. Debate did shape and make
the destiny of the Perry bill. ,
How the Law Will Operate.
"The agricultural schools will be
called Into existence one after another.
The most active congressional district
will take the lead. It may be a year
or two years before another district
will attempt the work. But, on* by
one. Inspired by the success of others,
each district will organise a school of
agriculture. ,
"These schools will be the cap-stone
of the common schools of the several
districts. They will constitute an In
spiration and an Invitation to the more
ambitious boys and girls to come up
higher. They will lead to the etate
college of agriculture hundreds who
would never cherish th* hope of reach
ing that Institution. They will lend
not a few to the other colleges of the
state. They will equip thouianda fur
the battle of life. >
Will Rais* the Brows of Chlldrsn.
I said of the Connor bill not long
ago that It would raise the brow of
every Georgia farmer an Inch. I say
at the Perry bill that It will raise the
brow of every Georgia boy and girl
In the country 'wide an Inch—giving
them new hope and blessing them with
an Inspiration that will be uplifting
and triumphant. _ .
"I sincerely trust that the Perry bill
will so favorably Impreaa the senate
that that body will pae* It by a unan
imous vote. ,
'•This done, with what the legisla
ture has already done at this session In
furtherance of agricultural education,
Georgia will stand before her sister
states of the South an exemplar of
high rank—truly a great state.”
