THE American Humane education
society is urging upon the various
states of the union the passage Of
such laws as will authorize careful
inspection of the dead before burial
Mr.. George T. ANGEL, the head of the
humane society, is an enthusiastic adj
vocate OF any plan that will result in
such an inspection OF the supposed
dead as will determine beyon1 all
doubt whether burial ought to take
place or not. In his advocacy he is
urged by something more than the
ordinary feelings of an observer.
His own father had been pronounced
dead by a physician. and but for the
fortunate discovery of some sign of
life would have been buried alive. It
would seem as If every humane in
stinct of a legislator ought to prompt
a hearty cooperation with the Angel
society in its laudable purposes.

MANY farmers will begin this year
TO experiment with other than their
ordinary crops and endeavor to prac-
tice with potatoes. turnips, onions,
carrots, beats. artichokes and the like,
with a view to devoting more time
and land to them when they have
learned how, and know the best
methods. The comparatively long
keeping, non-perishable crops will be
field crops presently and each and all
available for all kinds of stock, as
we'll as for man himself.

1T is claimed that the gulf stream
has been detected 100 miles out of its
course, and that this fact is response
BILE for the loss of at least two vessels.
1t was Sidney Smith who said that he
had once heard a man speak disre-
spectfully of the equator. So far,
the gulf stream has escaped criticism,
but in view of the vagaries in which
it is in lulging it is likely to be added
to the many other things in the uni
verse on which we expend 80 much
grumbling.

Tobacco Officers Hauled Up.

New York. Dec. 11.-Treasurer Arents and Secretary Brown of the American Tobacco company were before the gov erning committee of the New York stock exchange yesterday. The stock is on the regular list of the exchange and the gov ernors exercised their right of calling for an explanation of the recent remarkable action of the company in advertising the passing of the dividend on the common stock, which resulted in the sensational break in the price Treasurer Arents admitted that the meeting on Friday last was entirely informal and the declara- tion to this dividend was down in the minutes as it should have been. IIr. Arents informed the governors that there was no intention of injuring stockholders, but the governors of the stock exchange were not satisfied with the explanation, so the tobacco directors had to meet this morning and take formal action on the dividend as already announced. It is said that the stock narrowly escaped from being stricken from the list.

CONFESSION REPUDIATED Barbara Aub Says Her First
 Statement Was True,
 A VERY COMPLICATED CASE She Was Fo ed Into Making the Confession,
 She Says, by
MISS KELlARD AT THE DOOR OF HOPE"
man on Trial Again, but Miss Kellard May Be Prosecuted for Subor-
 nation of Perjury.

New York, Dec. 11.-Rarbara Aub, who confessed to Recorder Golf on Thanks giving Day that she had falsely sworn when she testified at the trial of Walter Langerman, whom she accused of crim- inally assaulting her, is said to have re- pudiated that confession.
 Assistant District Attorney Robert Townsend, who prosecuted Langerman, announced Barbara's retraction. He said that Mrs. Mitchell, one of Barbaras s aunts. had informed him that during an interview with Barbara in the Toombs the latter had told her aunt that her confes- sion was false and that her testimony given at Langerman's trial was true.
 Barbara said she had been pressed to make the confession by people at the Door of Hope, where she was stopping after the trial. She said she had been forced into making the confession by Miss Kellard, the woman in charge there.
 Fred K. B. House, counsel for Barbara Aub, was called to the Toombs prison his evening by Mrs. Mitchell and had an in- terview with the prisoner, but when seen later would not admit that there had been confession made to any one. She said
 You can take my word for it, there has been retraction made"
 When District Attorney Fellows was seen regarding the retraction he said there was no probability of putting Lan- german again on trial. He said he would want stronger evidence against Langerman than was now in his posses sion. In regard to prosecuting Miss Kel- lard for subornation of perjury in fore ing the confession from Barbara the dis trict attorney would not commit himself.
