DESTROYED by the Cold Wave.

Misfortunes do not come singly The
south, as well as other parts of
the country. has been suffering for
a year or more from the hard
times, and the cold wave of this
week has damaged her TO the extent Of
millions OF dollars. There is no doubt
! that over the greater part of her territory
the fruit crop has been entirely destroyed.
In this state melons will have 10 be re-
planted and, Consequently. will not be
ready for market before July ]. There
would have been melons ready for ship
ment by June 1, if the weather had con-
tinued favorable. The crop was well ad-
vanced and was growing vigorously.
The truck farmers have, of course, suf-
fered greatly. All kinds of early vege-
tables have been damaged, and some OF
them have been entirely destroyed If
the truck farmers Of this state make any
thing this year, they will have to begin
replanting at once
IL would be difficult to estimate ehe loss
the people of this state have suffered
from the destruction of fruits In this
immediate section the pear crop, in favor
able years, brings IN a very large amount
of money. and in Middle Georgia the peach
crop is a large and profitable one. There
will be no peaches or pears this year ia
this state. The cold does not appear tC
have hurt apples, and there may be a fair
crop of that fruit.
The season was such a forward one
that considerable cotton was up when
the freeze came. These cotton fields
will at once be replanted, but it is doubt.
fui if as good crops will be raised as there
would have been had the weather re-
manned warm. We must take the
weather as it comes. There is nothing to
lie gained by complaining of it. There is
some satisfaction in the fact that the
farmers and fruit growers are not often
overtaken by such disaster as the one
Of this week.

south Is no new thing. II has Iesn under

attempt made TO nourish boltng organiza-
ton IN south Carolina with the aid of north

Col Breckenridge is being tried with
out counsel and condemned without mercy
by numerous associations and leagues in
various Parts of the country. The Wo-
mans Rescue League. of Boston, is one of
the latest semi-social courts to pass upon
his case. In sentencing him to oblivion
during the remainder of his natural life,
and something worse hereafter the
league denounces him as a "cowardly sill
ver-haired monstrosity" and IAN advance
agent of Satan" The effect of this denun-
citation, however is utterly spoiled by the
leagues insult to American womanhood
in its effort to condone Miss Pollard's
part in the affair. The league, in one of
the last of its series of resolutions, ex-
tends its sympathies to the woman "in
this, her hour of trial, while her whole
life like book, is laid open for public in
spection." and winds up the resolution
with this astonishing declarations There
are few women to-day who have not done
indiscreet things during their schoolgirl
days That is a libel on the sex
no man would dare 10 utter IL comes
from women who are uomiually leaders
of Boston public opinion and who are
supposed to speak for Boston's woman
hood. 1t implies that there are few wo-
men who have not done as iudiscreet
things in their schoolgirl days as those
done by Miss Pollard in her schoolgirl
days, There is no defense to be made for
Col Breckenridge, his conduct has been
infamous. Neither is there any defense to
be made for Miss Pollard her conduct
has been equally infamous. Those Boston
women made great mistake when they
attempted to defend her, and greater
one when they employed such language in
her behalf

4 stranga storv About sd. Andrew,s.

A Strange Story About st. Andrews.
It was mentioned in our last paper. says
the London Saturday Review, that not till
1926 was the litter Of ages removed from the
Cathedral when 5the government Of the day
had the grace 10 make an end OF that crying
scandal Shortly after the place had been
put to rights, a body Of local antiquaries
we're minded to open a certain turret that
looks out on st Andrews bay. They went to
u one day, accordingly and pulled Gown GER
tain stones in the wall; and when there was
room TO admit the body Of man. one Of the
party squeezed in his head and shoulders, and
all OF him, in fine, but his feet. Suddenly
these became quite rigid and his friends, pull
ing him out. found that he had tainted While
he was being attended to. a second man
peered into the black hole in like manner,
ana he. too. was pulled out in o very i'll way.
Finally, a professor Of the United College
forced his entire person into the cavity, and
ola not faint. but presently reappeared, with
the corpse Of woman in his arms, from
Which the life seemed TO have gone but that
hour. Tie turret was now fully eX-
plored, and sitting round in a circle were
found twelve bodies de ked as at feast, and
all Of them untouched Of decay. The pro
lessor on the instant sent of 10 the LORD Ad-
yocat3 asking what course he should take.
Inc answer came to close it up immediately
II ne would avoid prosecution. and this was
done and the matter hushed Up
But within the last few year, two OF those
present at that strange disinterment were
surviving, and they told certain of the mod
/ ern eXcaVators their story. which. indeed,
there was documentary evidence to support.
| So once again, and at night this time, the tur-
| ret was secret y opened up. Two things were
now established The first was the truth OF
] what the search party had alleged OF their
discovery so many years before; and the sec
ond was the cause of what they had seen For
! there is certain soil or a certain atmosphere
which preserves dead bodies from decay. IL
! exists al Milan, and it is now known to exist
nearer home. And at a certain point from
st. Regulus Tower all the dead that sleep be-
meath its shadow are lying now as they lay
on their Geathbeds.

Whera Kolh Stands.

The correspondence between Gov.
Jones. of Alabama, and Senator Hoar,
of Massachusetts. relative to the efforts
of the Home Market Club of Boston to
raise money to help elect Capt. Kolb
( governor of Alabama, shows exactly
where Capt. Kolb stands politically. He
claims that ne is a democrat, and yet we
find that he is SO entirely in harmony with
the republicans that republican Organi-
zati0n in Massachusetts is raising money
IN New England to assist him in defeat
isg the Democratic party of Alabama.
He is a good enough republican for such
a republican as Senator Hoar and other
republicans Of Massachusetts.
A story has been published that in the
last national campaign an arrangement,
with Capt. Kolb's consent, was
made between the Kolbite lead
ers in Alabama, and certain
republican leaders of the north,
by which the Kolbites agreed that if
it appeared that Gen. Weaver could not
be elected President. and the Kolbites
carried Alabama. the kolbite electors
should cast their vote for Gen. Harrison,
the republican candidate for President.
The course that is now being pursued by
the Home Market Club and Sen
ator Hoar justifes the belief that the
. story Of the agreement between the Kolb-
ties and republicans is true.
And yet there are papers, claiming TO
be democratic that are giving either
direct or indirect aid to Capt. Kolb. They
cannot help knowing what the situation
is in Alabama. There is no ground for
them to believe that Capt. Kolb is a dem
ocrat. He is anything but a democrat.
Apparently he is willing to espouse any
cause. if BY doing so he can increase his
political strength. For the sake of being
governor he is ready to try to destroy the
Democratic party and turn the state over
to the republicans.
Senator Hoar pretends that his only
purpose is to convert the democrats of
Alabama to the republican doctrine of
high protective tariff He says, however.
that if Capt. Kolb should be elected a
long step would be taken towards break
ing up the solid south. 1t is probable,
therefore, that the main object the sena-
tor has in view is the breaking up of the
Democratic party in the south. With the
solid south out Of the way he thinks the
Republican party would have very little
trouble in getting and retaining control
of the government.
The action of Senator Hoar and the
Home Market Club is consistent. But
what about the democrats and democratic
papers that are supporting Capt Kolb?
Have they any right to claim they are
democrats} The truth is, they have vir-
tually abandoned the Democratic party,
and their rightful place is with the re-
publicans or the populists

In search of Information.

Theophilus H. Davies is in Washington
in search of information. He will be
fortunate if he finds the kind he is look
ing for. Mr.. Davies is the Englishman
who is known as the guardian of Princess
Kaiulani. In view of the fact that there
is not much prospect of the restoration of
royalty in Hawaii, it might be well
for the princess to drop her title. She
might get along better without it.
Mr.. Davies wants to know what the
United States propose doing about Ha-
wall 1t would be a difficult matter to
direct him where to go for information.
Nobody seems to be in a position to say
what the United States are going to do
in the matter. Neither the Presi-
dent nor congress seems to be
particularly concerned about Hawaii at
present. The President has turned the
whole subject over to congress, and con-
gress is giving its attention to appropria-
tion bills, the tariff and silver Perhaps
if Mr.. Davies calls later he may hear
something that viii interest him. Just
now he might as well go home and try to
keep the princess from getting low
spirited
MIR. Davies pretends to have faith that
the United States will restore the mon.
archy and either reinstate the deposed
queen or make Kaiulani queen. His
faith may be a source of pleasure to him
but eventually be will awaken to the
fact that it rests upon no foundation
The monarchy is a thing of the past
There will be no more kings or queen,
in Hawaii If Mr.. Davies is depending
upon monarchy in Hawaii for job nj:
chance for employment is not good

The MORNING News suggested some
time ago that the governments expedi-
ton TO Roncador reef to save the hulk Of
the Kearsarge would amount to nothing:
that the pirates from Old Providence
and the Colombian mainland would not
permit the wreck to be touched by the
Americans as long as anything of value
remained. The information contained in
our dispatches yesterday, that the hulk
has been burned, confirms the suggestion.
The pirates probably learned when the
Americans would arrive, hustled away
everything they possibly could and then
burned the wreck IN order to prevent it's
removal and to secure the metal contained
in IT, And that is the last of the Kear-
sarge. u is not in the least likely that a
claim will be made against the Colombian
government for the value Of the articles
removed by the pirates from the wreck
precedent is against such course.

saying: You look as If you wanted to eat me

leading straightout' populist fight
against the proposed combination of re
pubiicaus, Kolbites and populsts in
Alabama this year The faction held a
meeting at Greenville the other day an
resolved to bolt the Kolb nomination and
nominate "Purist Populist" state
ticket. They claim to see into the ne
gotiations between Kolb, Senator Eoar
and the Home Market Club of Boston,
all the evidence they want that Kolb is
preparing to sell out to the republicans
for the highest price he can get.

The Iowa legislature has arrived at a
queer solution of the prohibitionquestion
The prohibitory liquor law is not abro-
gated, but it may be set aside where the
principle of a so-called "mulct tax bill" is
adopted This law assesses a tax of 5000
against any real estate upon which liquor
is sold, and provides that the payment of
this annual tax shall be a bar to prosecu-
tion under the prohibitory liquor law
when a majority of the voters in the larger
cities, and 50 per cent. Of the voters in
smaller places sign petition asking such
exemption. The system amounts TO local
option, with lot of whipping Old Nick
around the stump to get at it.
