Presidents party yesterday beside rest.
ing comfortably in the shade and recOv-
ering from the fatigue of their long car.
rage drive. Toward shutdown the Prcsi-
dents guide persuaded him to make a
trip TO Turtle Pond, in the belief that a
salmon trout or two might be beguiled
into taking the hook. For once Guide
Crouk's predictions were not vcri-
fed. Trout no longer rise to the
fly, and trolling will continue to
yield unsatisfactory results SO long
as the water is as warm as it now is.
Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Folsom busted
themselves in the afternoon in afiixing
their autographs to the birch bark
albums of the ladies whose acquaintance
they have made at Saranac Inn. The
covers and the leaves of these
albums are shaped like the leaf of 4
maple or birch or some other forest tree,
and are bound together at the stems with
q piece of ribbon. They make souvenir
much sought after. If the necessary ar
rangements can be completed deer
hunt will probably take place here this
week. the President and his friends sta
tioning themselves at the various lakes

guides all say that this is good hunting
ground and the President is likely to get
another buck. A fine buck was shot on
the opposite shore of the Upper Saranac
lake, within plain view of the Presidents
log cabin, bv Mr.. Charles F. Cutler, OF
New York, on Tuesday morning.

BlLOxIS PEST.

The Doctors Fail to Agree rs to It's Nature.
Hut Think Precautionary Measures the
Safest Course-AH Convalescent.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 9.-The war be-
tween the doctors as to whether the dis
ease at Biloxi was yellow fever or not.
RACES rs warmly as ever, although the
sickness has disappeared. DIR. Holt,
president of the Louisiana Board of
Health, one of the experts who pro-
nounCed it yellow fever, made long
speech before the Board, in which he Sc
verely handles the physicians of the OPP
position. He gave a complete diagnosis
of the case, declaring that the two sick
persons, who had died of the fever, had
died with black vomit, and that their
bodies turned yellow and presented other
evidence that confirms the yellow fever
theory. He declared that Biloxi
physicians had made only superficial
and careless examination of the
cases, but he made no allusion to the re-
port of DIR. Godfrey, of the United States
Marine Hospital service.
DIR. Godfrey has arrived here from BIZ
loXi. He adheres to the belief that the
disease was not yellow fever, but he gave
the mayor of Biloxi the advice of Sur
EeOn-General Hamilton that the cOnva-
lescents should be kept under supervision
for six days, and all the precautions taken
to prevent a spread of the disease, after
which quarantine and other restrictions
could he abolished. Popular and medical
circles are still divided as TO the charac-
ter of the Biloxi fever. Whatever it was,
however, Il is ended, as there are no new
cases and the sick are well again.

BLESSING IN DISGUISE.

A Georgia Young Lady, Who Had Lost the
Power of speech. Receivers 1t as the Re
suit of Excitement Incident to the Earth
quake.
NEW YORK, Sept. "a Savannah spe-
cial to tie Times says: A strange incl
dent of last weeks earthquake shock is
the recovery of the power of speech by
Miss Mamie Martus, daughter of a re-
tired officer of the regular army. At the
close of the war her father was put in
charge OF Forts Pulaski and Jackson, be-
low the city. While at the former fort,
the daughter, then a bright, intelligent
child, had an attack of meningitis,
which left her voiceless. The best med
ical skill was obtained, and the father
took his afflicted child travelling, but
nothing did her any good. She was
dumb, hut had all the other senses.
During the excitement of the first
earthquake shock last Tuesday night, she
in her fright attempted to call her bro
Their. He was frightened himself when
he heard her whisper his name. Since
then she has gradually rcgained her voice
and now talks with perfect f1uency. She
SAYS she was almost deliriouS with JOY
when she found that she could speak.
Her voice was low and her throat. sore
for three days, and she had trouble in
finding words to express her thoughts.
1t was much like learning 4 new tongue,
except that she knew the words, but had
forgotten how TO pronounce them. City
physicians are deeply interested In the
case. Their explanation is that the re-
covcry was due to intense mental eX-
element

TREES IN WINTER.
Some Facts In Relation to Fall-Growth
and Winter-Killing.

Some Facts In Relation to Fall-Growth
and Winter-Killing.
The condition of tree when winter
sets in has more to do with its survival
intact than most persons imagine. A
tree may be perfectly hardy in one soil
and situation and in another near by it
may be tender. In the one case it may
have been kept growing late in the au-
tumn, and freezing weather found it
green. sappy and susceptible to tenn
perature that, had its wood been fully
ripe. it would have successfully resisted.
The seasons in the West are often fav
orable 10 late autumn growth. If in the
case of fruit-trees bearing full crop,
weakening the vitality of the tree, fav-
orable weather for fall growth ensucs,
especially if warm winter suns should
occur followed by cold nights, disaster
is pretty sure to come. The extensive
winter-killing of the apple tree in Hi
uOis two years ago is a case in point.
The disaster was most marked in early
and cOnstant-bearing sorts, while shy
bearers, even those considered tender,
went through comparatively unscathed.
The reason was obvious. Growth was
natural and the wood was fully ripened.
while the bearing trees, in the attempt
to do two years work in one, failed.
Dry seasons, under plenty of rain and
favorable autumn weather. may force
trees into second growth in fall. If
SO there will be danger of winter-kil-
ling. To avoid this every means possi-
bic should be used. Above all no cult
walton should be allowed. since this will
stimulate growth. For trees where
special means may be used heavy
mulc,;ng would be indicated, since this
would keep the soil less susceptible
either to excessive wetting or heat. To
prevent the killing of young seedlings
probably no better plan could be used
than to protect them with mulch, and
as an additional protection the summer
shade usually given should be continued
through the winter. The relative hard
mess of young forest seedlings. from
observations made at the Ohio Expert
mcnt Station after severe winters, is
given as follows:
Seedlings of green ash and yellow
locust escaped without any loss; per
cent. of scarlet maple and of black ash
was killed; per cent of red oak, 6per
cent. of white ash and wild cherry,
per cent of maple sugar. per cent. of
catalpa, 20 per cent of red oak, So per
cent. of cucumber-tree, so per cent. of
black walnut IS per cent. of chestnut
and 81 per cent Of white oak seedlings
were killed."
With sge the white oak is one of the
hardest trees of our Northern forests,
but, like the black walnut and chestnut,
is peculiar in respect to soil and situa-
ton. 1t is more than likely that lOca-
tons and conditions had mucu to do
with the great fatality in the trees
named. Hence the tree-planter should
consider the conditions of soil, location
and climate to insure success. Chicago

NEW YORK, Sept. 11.-Last evening q

with AL umbrella, punctuating her blows
with EXPLANATIONS like "Fll show yOu,"
"Pii teach you better than to break up my

do anything but writhe and scream
beneath the blows, and when an officer ar.
rived she was lying senseless on the ground,
while the small woman. exhausted, leaned
up against tho fence. with the wreck Of the

What the Scientists Have Discovered.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.-Prof. Powell,
director of the Geological Survey. eX-
poets the members of the survey vino
were sent to Charleston to make obscrva-
tions of the earthquake to return in Il few
days. From the preliminary reports
already received it is evident that som.
very interesting and, probably, some very
important scientific facts have been dis
covered. Several hundred reports have
been received from persons in the center
OF the earthquake region. From these
reports and the observations of the gov
eminent scientists Director Powell con-
ciudes that the earthquake had its center
in North and South Carolina, To the
northeast of Charleston. The land ares
OF the earthquake was 100000 square
miles, one-third of the total area of the
United States, and the maps which have
been prepared show that the shock
traversed this distance in fifteen mau,es
The earthquake did not come from the
direction of Bermuda. Mr.. McGee will
bring with him some valuable specimens
Of the soil and stones which were thrown
M through the assures. Director Powell
says the scientists viii agree as - the
main facts of the earthquake.

Two Linn County Men Try to Settle an Old
Feud With PiatOIs-ShOt Mt Fair.
LA CYGNE. Kan, Sept. 11.-Thursday
evening about six o'clock l.. Massey and
W. Williams, two respected citizens of their
neighborhood and both powerful men, met
at the store OF Kelsey & Carpenter. in
Jingo, Miami County, and began guarreling
over an old feud between the families. The
two apparently settled their difference and
left the store together for home. but be-
fore they had gone a great distance they
again began quarrelling and fight ensued,
when Massey drew his knife and stabbed
Williams in the right breast, inflicting an
ugly wound and severing two ribs. This
disabled Williams right arm, and in trying
to ward off the blow of his assailant with
the left he received severe cuts above and
below the elbow. Massey gave himself up
to the authorities, claiming to have done it
in self defense.
TWO MEN SHOT AT FAIR.
Yesterday afternoon about four o'clock a
Shooting affray took place on the grounds of
the La Cygne district fair, which resulted in
Charley Smith. living at Cadmus. and r
IiungerfOrl, Of this city, receiving ugly
wounds. The ball struck Smith just above
the right temple, tracturlng the skull and
cutting an ugly cash two or three inches
In length. although it IS thought not to be
fatal. Hungerfnrd was struck on the left leg
about eight inches above the knee. the ball
striking the bone and passing to the inside.
The shooting was done by Grant Ogan, of
this place, who has bad character and who
is very ugly when under the influence u
liquor, as In this case. He was immediatel
arrested and is now under heavy guard, a.
there are threats of lynching.

WHAT is lra


4 s1splelous Smoke seen on Hilton Head
Llkht-What IL lt, . Volcano or shls
ON Flref-ProE Mendenhall's Theory Oi
Of the Earthquake.
SAVANNAH. GA, Sept. s.-Thc keeper
ct Tybee Lighthouse, at the mouth OF
the Savannah River, reports that be.
tween one and two o'clock yesterday
afternoon an immense white column, at
1rst supposed to be q water-spout, was
noticed twenty miles out at sea, in o
northcasterly direction, or apparently
twenty miles due east of Hilton Head
light, at the mouth of Port Royal harhor.
Glasses were leveled on the mysterious
stranger, but 1t was 50 far distant, and
the atmosphere 80 hazy, that good view
was impossible. The fact that 1t still
remained stationary at five O'Clock dis.
PEELED the water-spout theory, and at
that, hour the light.hou Sc keeper signifi-
cantly telephoned that the column had
assumed unmistakeable evidences of be.
Ing smoke of light color, peculiar TO that
from volcanoes. No disturbance of the
sea Is reported to have preceded
the appearance of the column, but the
people of the island are convinced that
q volcano has sprung up. The smoke is
visible from the cupola of the Morning
News building in this city, and 1t Is felt
certain here that it is either of volcanic
origin or arises from ship on fire at sea.
As 1t is forty mile cruise from this city,
1t is impossible to earn ANYTHING definite
concerning the mystery. The first shock
of earthquake feit n this city Tuesday
night undoubtedly came from north
easterly direction, and this fact, coupled
with Prof. Mende nhall's theory, indicates
that the base of the disturbance is at sea,
somewhere of the coast between this
city and Charleston.
