Mr. o,prisooll,e Side Of n.

Savannah, Ga, Oct. 13.-Editor Morn
ing News: In your issue of this date,
there appears an article headed Under
Two Warrants" in which am made to
appear both brutal and cruel, as well as
discourteous to ladies' To such as know
me no explanation on my part is neces-
sary; but to large number of your read
ers denial on my part may be required
in order that l may not be placed in a
wrong position.
The facts are entirely at variance with
the statement given your reporter; and
my action will be thoroughly indicated
when the matter is ventilated in the
courts, where the case now rests.
1t is true l attempted to kill dog that
had attacked and bitten me while in dis
charge of my duty. II is not true that /
made any assault upon any lady. My
character and life during the ten years /
have been in Savannah are a complete
refutation of such a charge. l ask the
general public to suspend their judgment
until all the facts are brought out. Yours

A DUEL OF HEARTS.
The Performance Last Night One of the
Best of the Season.


The Performance OF Duel of Hearts, -"
by Miss Mazda Craigens company, ably
assisted by Mr. Frederick Paulding, was
greeted by most appreciative audience
last night, and was one of the best shows
that has been seen at the theater this
season.
Miss Craigen's wide and varied stage
experience as a support to such artists as
Booth, Barrett, Modjeska and Others has
enabled her to fill the position of a star
with an aptitude and ability unknown to
others whose experience has been more
limited. Her ability was fully demon
strated in her rendition of Lady Anita
StanhOpe, " the young Cuban. The role
of Lady StanhOpen is by no means an
easy one to present, but it is sustained
artlstically and true to the character it
self by the acting of Miss Craigen.
Mr.. Frederick Paulding forms an able
support to Miss Craigen in her excellent
presentation Of Mrs. j. d. Lander's 70
mantle play. He is a versatile actor and
handles his part, Eugene Count de Ligny.
with a great deal of tact and originality
His part, while true to nature, may be said
to be a creation of his own. An attract
i've appearance and graceful manner
may be added to the charms of his arts
tic presentation. The support as a
whole is far above the average.
BY special request "A Duel of Hearts,
will be respected both tonight and at the
matinee to-day Lorine was to have been
presented tonight, but the other has been
substituted The story in brief follows
Two young French noblemen, brothers,
are doing social London. They become
acquainted with capricious young Gu
ban, with the better part of her nature
not developed The Younger brother falls
madly in love with the beauty, who leads
him on. He tells of his love, and is in
turn told that she does not love him He
is in despair and in a shaded corner of
the room, shielded from the guests, stabs
himself, after writing a letter telling of
his infatuation. The elder brother dis
covers him and swears vengeance on the
woman.
The second act shows the brother lead
ing on the woman, who really loves him.
He denounces her and she becomes ma
MAC. A year after a friend inadvertently
informs him of the great love the woman
has for him and of her sad condition.
His heart is touched, and then he disCov-
ers that he himself really loves her. He
returns and declares his passion, and the
curtain falls to a happy finale The story
is of sustained interest, and the climaxes
very dramatic. The dialogue is pithy,
and many delightful comedy scenes afford
admirable contrast to the more pathetic
portions of the plot

VALUE OF COW PEAS.

A., interesting Article by the Assist
ant Chemist of the Experiment Sta
ton.
Experiment, Ca, Oct. 13.-To sow cow

niece of land is what almost every
%orner now does And why? Because
80 Knows that it viii renovate his land,
md because he has found out that it will
cira back some of the fertilizing elements

More than thirty years ago investiga-
ions were carried on in Europe which
showed that legumes-that variety of
nIau,s to which our COW pea belongs-not
Ppriv derived nitrogen from the soil and
snbsoil, but al 0 from some other source.
What this source was and how it was as
simulated by the plant were first pre-
santed by Prof Heleregal in 1886.
If YOU will carefully remove from the
Ground the roots of a pea vine you will
And number Of what look like very
small Irish potatoes, varying in size, but

A delicate pink color inside. These are
root tubercles, and it is in these that the
nitrogen from the atmosphere is liked"
and remains in the roots of the plant in
such condition that il can be taken up by
other plants not legumes, as we'll as by
the individual plant on which they form,
and which uses some of them to sustain
its own life and growth.
The formation of these tubercles is due
to certain bacteria which enter into the
plant. without which the little tubers are
not formed and the only nitrogen that
can enter the plant is that which it ex-
tracts from the soil.
Experiments with peas grown in
sterilized soil, that is, prepared so as to be
free from bacteria. show no signs of
tuberces, although nitrogen had been
applied to the roots in the shape of pure
salt. and a perfect seed development was
produced. Others treated as above, and
inOculated with the proper bacteria, made
tubercles and showed an increase in nitro
gen in the plant above that which was
found in the plants that received their
nitrogen from the soil only.
Chemical analysis show that COW pea
roots and stubble, grown in the field
contain about lib per cent. of nitrogen
and the amount produced on one acre
make the actual amount of nitrogen
equivalent to So pounds.
Besides nitrogen, there are phosphate C
acid. potash and other fertilizing ingre-
di ents left in the roots in such state
that they are easily assimilated, and
which are all necessary to the production
and maintenance of plant life.

.ATEs CHARGED BY THE CENTRAL RAILROAD
COMPANY PER 100 POrNDs.
RATES ALLOWED BY THE RHILROAD COM


The Central is the great connecting
system between the trade centers, the
distributing points In Georgia, that is to
say, between Savannah, Augusta, Macon,
Columbus Rome and Atlanta. l do not
think the full 81 rnifcance of this fact will
be or can be realized until we stop to ask
how many competing lines lead to these
various points. Macon has six lines over
which she may receive her goods from
any point of the compass In order to be
perfectly fair, let US name them. She
can receive her goods over the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia, the Central,
the Georgia, the Georgia Southern and
Florida, the Macon and Birmingham or
the Macon and Northern. Therefore, as
to freight distribution after reaching
Macon, the Central must compete with
her five rivals. In Columbus she must
meet the Columbus Southern and the
Georgia Midland and Gulf
In Savannah she must meet the Plant
system and allied lines and the South
Bound and its allies. In Rome it must
meet the East tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia, the Western and 'Atlantic
and allies, and in Atlanta il must meet
the Georgia Pacific, the Western and At
lantic. the Richmond and Danville, the
Atlanta and West Point, the Atlanta and
Florida, the Georgia and the Seaboard Air
Line system
Nov let us stop here long enough to call
TO mind the fact that as TO all eastern and
western business going into these trade
centers' or going out of the same trade
ceuters, except for local or non-competi-
tive points, The Central on all sides is
compasscd about with the most fearful
competition Bearing In mind that as to
