madness in which all theories Of

thirst for retributive justice re-
mains. In Robertson county, an
escaped negro convict went to slhe

and after being fed by the young
wife, outraged and murdered her,
then saturated her clothing with
kerosene oil and fired the building.

4 Four YEAR OLD's PRoTEsT.-
A Chicago gentleman has a four
year-old boy who Is an iuveterate
gum-chewer. The boys name is
John, and he thinks it is q great
hardship to put his gum aside when
he goes 10 bed at night. He is in
clined very much to rebel against
such discipline. A few Sundays
ago he went to the cemetery with
his parents. Passing a pasture
along the track, little John saw a
COW lying down and chewing her
cud. He at once exhibited wild
alarm and excitedly exclaimed
"Oh, ma, look there That COW
has gone TO bed chewing her gum
and YOU won't let little John dc

ABOUT FERTILIzERs.-Many be-
lieve that commercial fertilizers
are only slimulants. Nothing can
be more absurd than such a notion.
Commercial fertilizers furnish true
plant food just as surely as does
the best yard manure ever hauled
into the field. There are some OBJ
vious reasons why this statement
can be confidently made. (a) The
compounds in farm manures that
feed plants are the same COM
pounds that commercial fertilizers
furnish to the soil. Does it make
any difference to the plant whether
it gets phosphate Of lime from
commercial fertilizer or from a sta
BILE manureg (b) Plants have
been grown TO perfection in water
solution and in the most barren
quartz saud by the use OF COM
pounds that enter into commercial
fertilizers, those compounds being
the only source of food the plant
had. Can a child grow on alcohol
alone, and can a plant feed Oh that
which Is only a stimulant TO the
soil. Still further, the analysis oi
plant tissue shows that "A complete
commercial fertilizer is capable OF
furnishing all the more important
substances found there excepting
what the plant takes from the air

FORCE BILL TlLT5.
The Measure Still Lying on the Vice |

The Measure Still Lying on the Vice
Presidents Table.
WASHINGTON, July 18.-Senators Hoar
and Spooner stoutly protest that Speaker
Reeds project Of passing the Johnny Daven-
port force bill through the Senate at this
session has not been abandoned by the re-
publican senator's to whom the speaker
entrusted it. They still assert that it will
be taken up by the Senate and passed, the
rules being changed If necessary to
do it. They admit that it will have to
be postponed fer the tariff bill, which by
all is regarded as the more important, but
they say that by Sept. l the Senate will be
considering the force bill. To show that
they are in earnest they held meeting to-
day of the three republican members Of the
committee on privileges and elections, con-
sistlng, besides themselves, of Senators
Frye, Teller and Evarts, none Of whom is
very eager to see either the rules changed
or the force bill passed.
STILL ON MoRToN's TABLE.
The Johnny Davenport force bill is still
lying on the Vice Presidents table, Just as
it came from the House, Senator Hoar
thinking that he could handle it better there
than in a committee, where one republican
vote, with the votes of the democrats. might
defeat any move he wanted to make. Be-
sides, he is hopeful of getting the ajority
of the committee to instruct him to propose
to the Senate to substitute for the Daven-
port bill his own bill, which the committee
let him report April "a as
substitute for those of Senators
Sherman, Chandler and Spooner. Sena-
tor Hoar had the same assistance
from Johnny Davenport in framing his
bill that Representative Lodge had, and so
his bill, although only half as long as Rep
resentative Lodges, is on the same lines,
providing very much the same machinery
and much the same method. 1t differs
chiefly in the omission Of penalties.
Whether Senator Hoar succeeds In substi-
stuting his bill or not, it is certain that the
House Davenport bill will not go through
the Senate unanimously. Even Speaker
Reed sees this,

WASHINGTON, July 1S.-Civil Service
Commissioner Roosevelt is very anxious to
have the young men and young women of
the south come forward and take clerksh1ps
in the executive departments in order to fill
up the quotas of the southern states, most
of which are very far from being filled.
He went up to the House to-day and
called on representative congress
man from each southern state
Mr.. Crisp, for example, for Georgia
and asked him to let the
people of his state know that three-ffths of
the applicants who should pass examinations
to be held shortly in the south could be
pretty certain to get appointments.
Georgia has more appointments now
than any other cotton state, and Louisiana
has the least of all. Five hundred pension
office places are among those to be presently
filled. "Imagine Commissioner Raum's
feelings when 500 southerners come up to
help him deal out pensions, said a southern
