Interesting Notes Respecting the Work
That Is Being Done There.

Macon, Ca, Jan. 2O-Intermediate ex-
animation viii be begun this week and
the boys are trembling in their boots. so
concerned are they about the hard work
ing professors.
j is not exaggeration TO say the Uni
versity was never i'm better working con-
dition, every department is at high water
mark. Faculty and students are in fine
spirits.
The Preachers school. now in progress
with three lectures each day by Drs. O.
c. Pape, W. A. Nelson and President
Gambrell, is a most pronounced success.
The attendance is good and growing con-
stantly. In character. the preachers at
tending the school are strong vigorous
and alert. They range in age from the very
young man TO the silver-haired and it's
picture to see these teachers Of the peo-
pie gathering material to carry home to
their people. II takes no seer to foresee
the great uplifting influence of this school
on the Baptist denomination. and the en-
tire state of Georgia ana other states rep
resented in the school
Drs. Pape and Nelson are companion
pieces, so to speak, The former is ex-
ceedingly quick, cintillating, logical and
critical, who trims the corners and rough
edges to a nicely in fine spirit, while the
latter is soulful mellow and reaches after
GERS Lenter and Malonathan They are
moving things AS great as the results of
their work heretofore has been, they are
unquestionably doing in this preachers
school, the greatest, most far-reachine
work that has ever engaged their heads
and hearts.
DR.. Pape guarantees 40 per cent of the
board of all pastors who will attend the
preachers school, whose salaries are un-
der $1,000, and all of the board of all ladies
who will come. provided they give them
selves to religious work in their sphere.
The school viii continue six weeks
longer. and it does seem that a hundred
pastors more, and many women will be
thoughtful enough to avail themselves OF
DIR. Pape's generous offer and get the in
calculable advantages of the school. Let
1t be understood, however, that this
preachers school is no place for dandies
and fools. 1t is heart and head business

BANKER oLEws' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street

@AN - @ANeA-NANA ~ ONAOOA db seen from
Wall Street.
New York. Jan 19.-Since our advices Of
the 12th inst, there has been no import
ant change in the direction or the vol
ume of Wall street operations. The trans
actions on investment account have been
moderate in amount. ana speculation
stin remains largely restricted to profess
sional operators. Events have supplied
no conspicuous motive for new ventures
ON either the BUR or bear" side and the
two forces seem to be about evenly bal
anced. With a larger supply of stock on
the market, sellers might possibly be
able to make some impression on prices :
but, with the present limited holdings
the bears cannot sell any important
lines of stock without encountering diff
ficulty in borrowing shares to make their
deliveries and exposing themselves to
being squeezed. on Wednesday a better
feeling was developed by Illinois Cen
trail declaring its usual rate of dividend
in place of making a reduction as was gen
orally expected. There are also other con-
siderations calculated to bring the better
class of dividend-paying stocks into de-
mand. 1t seems to be generally conceded
that they have now seen their worst eN-
perience, and that the fan in prices has
more than discounted the recent adverse
influences affecting them, so that, at cur
rent prices they should be a good pur-
chnse. During the latter half of the
week this feeling was distinctly appar-
emf. and the transactions in expectation
of better prices for good properties pro-
duced more hopeful tone than has been
apparent for some time.

The Snow Blanket.

The value Of mantle of snow in pro-
tecting vegetation In the fields in win.
ter is fully understood in farming dis
tricts, and the cause of the protective
effect of the snow is an interesting sub
jeot Of scientific inquiry.
In Germany, where no such subject
is ever allowed to escape investigation,
DR.. Abels has recently made some i'm.
portant observations on the thermal
properties of snow. He has found that
the looser the snow the greater its pow
er to protect tho ground beneath from
the effects of external changes Of tenn
perature.
Snow generally offers about four
times as much resistance to such changes
as sheet of ice of tho same thickness
offers. When snow becomes closely
packed, therefore, 1t is less effective as
protection to plant life than when it
lies loosely upon the surface.
Other experiments show that, while q
blanket Of snow protects the ground be-
meath from the chilling effects of the
winter atmosphere, yet the surface of
the snow itself, especially in clear
weather, is colder than the air, SO that
snow tends to lower the temperature of
the atmosphere, and where broad areas
Of country or extensive mountain slopes
are covered by it important climatic
conditions may be produced by tho in
fluence of the snow. Youths Compan.

A Horn Curiosity,

certainly true as far as the horn of the

interviewer and agglutinated that under
the miscroscope it appears to be of COM
position similar to the pith of corn

widely separated by tho material that
binds them together.
In olden times royalty employed rhi-
noceros horns for drinking cups. the no.

TIE LAM TRADE.
JIadstone's Wisdom In Advising the Farm
ers to Cultivate Fruit.

erS 10 CultlVato Erults
A few years ago, when Mr.. Glad
stone, in one Of his charming bucolic
orations at Hawarden. recommended the
British farmer to turn his attention to
fruit cultivation and the making Of Jam,
his advice was received with good
deal of cheap and ignorant ridicule. As
usual, the ex-premier has proved good
deal wiser than his critics, and those
who gave ear to his counsel in this in
stance have had no reason to regret their
confidence. In an interview famous
proyider says:
"The motive that induced me to take
up the jam trade was my knowledge Of
the fact that within late years the de-
mand for preserves had been steadily In.
creasing, while that for butter has, no
doubt In consequence, shown tendency
rather to decline than otherwise. Cater
ing as I do for some 800, 900 daily GUS
toners, have naturally good opportu.
nifty of knowing what the public want
in the matter Of provisions.
"Jam has great future before it.
The people are using 1t more and more
largely every year, and, in my opinion,
they are doing wisely, for what could
be cheaper and at the same time health.
ier than a good jam made from sound
English fruit?
II attribute the superiority of Eng
lish fruit to the nature Of the soil and
to the fact that the fruit ripens more
gradually in our climate than in coun-
tries where there Is more continuous and
powerful sunshine. The slower the rip
ening process the better is the flavor Of
the fruit
"You may not perhaps be aware that
straw berries grown III the northern parts
Of Scotland are vastly superior in all re-
spects to those grown in southern Eng
land, without doubt because they take
longer to mature. Australian jams are
being pushed largely in India and else
where and may very probably come
over here before long to compete with
our home produce.
'ln Ireland there is magnificent fu-
ture for the fruit growing industry il
only its opportunities were turned to ac
count Even now most Of the blackber
ries that come to the English markets
are grown in Ireland But there are
enormous possibilities there Of which nC
one has yet taken advantage. Properly
worked, its fruit trade might yet dt

A Couple Of Interesting Folklore Stories
Concerning Those Luminaries.

A Couple of Interesting Folklore Stories
Concerning Those Luminaries.
The most touching Of all folklore sto.
ries may be found in Charles f. Lum-
mis- "Pueblo Folklore. " 1t is one of
the many myths Of tho moon and beauti
fully conceived. The sun is the Allfa.
ther, the moon the Allmother, and both
shine with equal light in the heavens.
But the Trues, the superior divinities,
find that man. the animals, the flowers,
weary of constant day. They agree to
put ont the Allfather's, or suns, eyes.
The Allmother-the moon-offers her.
self as sacrifice. "Blind me-" she
says, "and leave my husbands eyes. :"
The Trues say, 1T is good, woman.
They accept the sacrifice and take
away one of the Allmother's eyes. Hence
the moon is less brilliant than the sun.
The man finds rest at night, and the
flowers sleep.
In Mrs. Leiber Cohen's translation of
SaCher Masooh's "Jewish Tales" there
Is variant Of the sun and moon story
derived from the Talmud. Briefly told,
the sun and moon are equally luminous.
1t is the moon who wants to be moro
brilliant than the sun. Deity is angered
at her demands. Her light is lessened

Eighty-eight, He Now Seeks Divorce.
A romantic marriage that took place
here Thanksgiving eve bids fsir to cul-
inmate in the wreck Of the matrimonial
bark. The principals to the wedding
were Charles Moore, wealthy Monroe
county farmer, aged 80 years, and Mrs.
Amanda Pierce Of this place, aged Cd.
They have not lived together since the
ceremony, and the groom has applied
for divorce.
The couple in early childhood were
lovers, high spirited, strong willed and
stubborn, characteristic that remains
with them yet to remarkable degree.
A lovers quarrel and separation by re-
moval threw their lives into different
paths. Both married other companions,
reared large families and accumulated
goodly share of this worlds goods in
the half century that has since passed.
A few years ago their consorts were re-
moved by death. Later the lovers of 80
years ago met again. The old fame
was rekindled, and it eliminated in a

The nuptials over, the venerable
groom returned to his 1900 acre farm,
near Bloomington, and the bride began
packing her goods to follow. Then she
changed her mind. She concluded that
1t was not the proper thing for her to
leave her children and grandchildren SO
far away and informed the groom that
he must come to Kokomo and live with
her. This turn of affairs did not suit
Mr.. Moore. He had the household all
prepared for its new mistress and con-
tended that he could not afford 70 com.

interests would suffer thereby and final.

live with him she must come to his
home. The bride refused to comply, and
the piqued groom brought matters to q
focus yesterday by filing an application
