it is equally true that ancient butter is

The bill of Senator Pope was amended by
Senator Smith, of Maryland, to increase
the national subscription to these under
tal-ngs from one-haf to two-thirds. The
bin was then postponed to the next ses-
sion of congress.
John Pope died in 1942. He was
governor of the territory Of Arkansas six

Before all those people came upon the

of the treasury, had reported to congress

A correspondent of The Rocky Mount
ain liusbaudman, Speaking Of the adj
vantagea Of sheep over cattle on tho
western ranges, says: 1T is noted fact
that there is far less alarm over the pros
poet Of short winter feed among sheep
owners than any othor class of stocknan.
The reason of this is that sheep thrive
on very short feed, and when there are
any points bare along the foothills iiOcks
may be kept fairly we'll, even if the grass
has been closely grazed in the summer.
1t is also fact that 1t IS possible TO
keep three or four thousand sheep on
hay about as easy as to keep so many
hundred cattle. Sheep do not seem 10
consume food in proportion to cattle,
This is probably duo To the fact that they
aro kept constantly rustling for them-
selves throughout each lay, except when
it is storlniug while cattle having no
herder are inclined to lay around the
premises and not go out to feed, even in
pleasant weather. sheep are better
adapted to the exhausted condition Of
our ranges by far thun caotlc.
A Milwaukee man had horse that no
blacksmith could shoe on the hind feet
At length the bright idea was hit Of

beast came to himself he nearly kicked

get rid of the shoes, but it was no 60

What 1 See.

Editor Morning Nescs: see that the
city is doing nothing toward opening our
streets. No city can prosper bottled up like
Savannah. If the streets were all opened
in the city limits, it would add great deal
to the city's growth. Perhaps council is
waiting for deep water, in order to buy the
land cheap.
see that the old iron fence around the
park is likely to remain for some time to
come. 1t is of no use, and I suppose that
council wishes to keep it because no other
city has one like 1t.

lowed TO run their barrooms without
license, while the poor merchants are heav-
lily taxed for such privileges. Mayor Nc
Donough is right, ana the aldermen ought
to stand by him. Every kind of business
should be placed upon the same basis, and
there is no justice in doing 1t any other

SOUTH'S COMING GAME.
SAVANNAH AMONG TIE FIRST TO
KICK THE BALL.

The Catholic Library Association and
the Young Mems Hebrew Associa-
ton TO Meet New Years DAy-The
New Game Gaining in Popularity
Everywhere-It Threatens to Dis
place Base Ball.
Foot ball will be all the 60 next year. At
least that is the appearance OF things just
now. All over the country there appears
to be an awakening interest on the subject
of the college game and II next year does
not see hundreds of foot ball teams stirring
In the field In this section it will be because
the country is too dead to kick.
For the last two or three seasons interest
in base ball has been on the de-
cline and any outdoor sport which
offers to take its place and which COM
mends itself to young America will at
once meet with favor. Foot ball appears
to flll the bill. Ii Is active, outdoor aud
muscular IL gives employment TO more
men In the field aud keeps them more
actively employed. IL gives greater play
TO strength and muscle, and at the same
time requires more skill and head work on
the part Of the individual player. 1t is
rather rough, but that ia no objection
if 1t stops short of death. II foot ball kills
and mains as many men in this country as
base ball has done it will have a terrible
record.
SAVANNAH IS IN 1T.
Savannah Is never behind when IL comes
to outdoor sports, and the prospects are that
1t will be the first city in the state TO have
regulation game of modern foot ball. The
Catholic Library Association and the
Ill
organized teams and have agreed to play
a match game upon New Years day at the
base ball park. The game will doubtless be
a tirst-cla one for amateurs. Both teams
are practioing every Sunday now under
competent instructors. j. b. Connolly, an
all-round athlete, is coaching the Catholic
Library team, and M. A. Davis, an old En-
Rlish foot ball player, is doing the same
work for the Young Mems Hebrew Associa-
ton team. Both teams are composed Of
muscular lot of young men. and some good
playing will be seen.
HEAVY WEIGHT TEAMS.
The Catholic Library's rush line Is said to
be dandy lot of heavy weights, and the
Young Mems Hebrew Association is also
pretty strong there. Already considerable
interest is being manifested. The Young
Mems Hebrew Association team has selected
white and blue uniforms and the Catholic
Library Association team will wear white
and brown.
The game to be played will be the regular
collegiate game Of foot ball. This is very
different from the old English game, which
depended chiefly upon kicking. The collie
gate game has very little kicking In it, and
depends almost entirely upon the rush, the
ball being carried by one Of the players. 1t
is purely American game, in fact.
a
very popular game In Savannah fifteen or
twenty years ago. and before the war as
we'll, and there are number of old players
who can tell of some glorious games on the
commons beyond where the old Jail used to
stand. It was the old English game they
played, however, which was not SO rough
as the present game.

FRENcH staticians have recently made soms
curious calculations of the amount of gold
which is annually buried In the United states.
ID. Victor Meunr asserts, after making careful
inquiries, that the American dentists annually
insert into the teeth OF their patients $500
pounds of precious metal, which would be worth
$3.50 coo. This gold Is never recovered. Of
course, but is buried with the person in whose
mouth it is placed. Making allowance for the
rapid increase of our population and for the
continued deterioration of the human teeth,
it appears that in less than 100 years Americas
cemeteries will contain more gold than now ex~
lists in France. This is no fancy sketch, but the
results Of study and cold tiguring.
