Cleveland Navigation Committee
Reports Adversely on Canal
Scheme.


CLEVELAND, o., March 13.-The
navigation committee of the chamber
of commerce has rendered it's report
in regard to the proposed canal be-
tween Lake Erie and Ohio river, and
the same has been adopted by the
board of directors. The committee is
of the opinion that the canal would
be of immense commercial value to
Cleveland, but is a physical impos-
sibiiity from an engineering stand
point. The report will be submitted
to the members of the chamber next
Tuesday evening. Another report
submitted to the directors was in ref
erence to the drainage of the Great
Lakes by the Chicago canal. The
secretary of war, according to the re-
port, should be asked to look into
the matter at once, and interfere if
the figures of some of the scientists
on the subject are correct.

NEED OF EXERCslz.


Discussion of the Educational and Health
Giving Value of Athletics.
Civilized man who will not exercise
as an average does not live out half the
term of his allotted three-score years
and ten. Lack of exercise is not the
sole cause of this degenerative ten
dency, of course, but it is one important
cause. Hence, recognizing this, it be-
comes the duty of man, in virtue OF his
boosted nationality, to dispel this
cause, and by giving proper attention
to his body to prepare his mind for
further conquests. The necessity for
this forces itself upon him in way
that leaves no ground for question.
The only things to be determined are
the degree of development that is to be
desired and the methods by which ii
may best be secured.
As to the degree of development that
will tend to preserve the health OF the
muscles and other organs, it is, OF
course, says a writer in Harper's Week
", impossible to speak except in gen
eral terms. Everyone secures some
measure of exercise in the routine OF
his ordinary life. But very few voca-
lions are calculated to give the vari'
GUS muscles of the body symmetrical
exercise. The rational thing, of course.
is for any individual to exercise per
functorily those sets of muscles that
are not exercised naturally in his ordi-
nary manner of living. For the vast
majority of people under ordinary con-
ditions of living the muscles that are
most sighted are those of the chest
and upper eXtremities. Nearly every
one is obliged to walk enough in day
to keep his leg and thigh muscles in
condition of reasonable tonicity. But
the average individual has chest and
upper-arm muscles that are fabby and
undeveloped to the last degree.
Measurement of the few average
arms will at once satisfy anyone of
this. There was a time, doubtless,
when our ancestors had arms as large
as their legs, perhaps even larger. Our
remote tree-dwelling relatives have
such arms now. But centuries of biped
use have developed our lower eXtrem-
tiles disproportionately, until he" the
most fully developed human arm bears
no comparison in size to the thigh OF
the same individual Gf normaD. 1t is
held by anaton,ists that the fully de-
veloped upper arm at the present stage
of our racial evolution should be of the
same size as the calf Of the leg, and
this size, it may be added, the same as
that of the neck.
These measurements being taken as
the criteria of perfectly symmetrical
development, anyone may easily find
out for himself how far he falls short
Of such development. AS a rule, the
tapeline will show at once Shat it is the
upper extremity which needs atten-
ton. 1t is not to be expected that the
person who is merely exercising for
health will ever develop his arm till it
meets the standard of symmetrical de-
velopment, nor is it necessary that he
should do SO. So long as he works in
that direction he is on the right track,
and if he keeps the muscles of the
arms, chest and shoulders in tone" SO
that they tend to keep him erect, and
are sufficiently firm to give support to
/ the blood vessels that penetrate them.
/ he will accomplish all that is absolutely
necessary.

Louisburg, passes through a veritable
tobacco paradise. 1t traverses the
heart of the finest tobacco lands in the
South, perhaps not finer than other
lands along this line farther on, but
lands upon which the most wonderful
results in tobacco growing have been
reached.
Only a few years ago that sec
ton was barren "pine country,'
upon which turpentine was considered
the most valuable product. Gradually
tobacco growers came in from the
older sections, and the SUCCESS of one
planter sent scores of others at the
business; and SO it grew, and to-day
there is not section in North Caro-
lima more prosperous than that from
Weldon to Raleigh, with the outlying
territory along the Seaboard Air Lines
branches. The planters have pros
porous looking homes, their children
are educated in we'll known schools,
cash is paid for all supplies and many
Of them have healthy bank accounts.
The towns of Henderson, Louisburg,
Warrenton, Durham, Raleigh and
others have prospered in consequence
of the active markets which the growth
of tobacco has made a necessity at
each, all resulting in solid prosperity
brought about by the intelligent cult
vation of the famous goldproducing

Why Physicians Use an r.

A woman ofan investigating turn Of
mind started out the other day TO dis
cover why physicians begin their
prescriptions with the letter ar"
Well, she found out, but it took time
and caused her some trouble. 1t seems
that during the middle ages, when
astrology was in fashion, character
very much like our ar" was the sign
Of Jupiter, the preserver Of health.
The physicians, being then equally
devoted to the science Of medicine
and astrology, invariably began their
prescriptions with the following words:
"In the name of Jupiter take the fol-
lowing doses in the order Sc. down
hereinafter" In the coure of time this
formula was abbreviated, until at
present only the letter ar" remains
to .ssIOa Us that the medical art was
fonce associated with the science Of the

Who Started the Silver Question

A correspondent Of the New York
UeraIN, writing from Cairo, Illinois,
says:
was down in Alabama few weeks
ago and incidently fell into converse
ton with an intelligent mechanic on
the silver question. [ said:-"What
is the difference TO you if we have the
single gold standard? The prices Of
all the staple commodities needed
by you are reduced in price in proper
ton to the reduction in the volume of
primary money, the measure OF values.
Cutting silver out has reduced the
price of flour here to s5.75 per barrel,
and here, where it is raised you can
buy cotton at 5 cents per pound.
These are the chief staples you require
for food and clothing.'
The carpenter replied:-"When
flour was from $40 to SI4 barrel and
cotton worth from ten to twelve cents
per pound l always had plenty Of
money with which to buy flour and
clothing. Now it is difficult for me
to raise sufficient to buy a barrel of
flour when needed, and l have to go
short of clothing. When cotton was
high money was plenty and everybody
was constantly employed at good
wages. Now employment is very un-
certain. Mechanics not altogether
cut off from work do not have steady
employment, and they find it difficult
to secure the bare neccessaries of life.
The manufacturers and agriCultu
rists who favor the reduction of the
life blood of commerce, real money,
to the smallest volume possible, are
cutting their own throats, for they are
reducing, in proportion, the consump.
ton of their products, and the same
may be said of the mercantile class,
who have the handling of these pro-
ducts"
My observation COnvlnces me that
the mechanic was more than half right.
In some circles it is popular to talk of
the "sllver craze "sllver crank, &C.,
and to treat the money question as
though raised by those advocating the
restoration of silver to the place i'll
the coinage it occupied before 1878,
whereas it was injected into American
politics by the schemers who secured
the demonetization of silver in that
wear. As soon as the effect Of the
coinage act adopted in 1873 was dis
covered by Congress and the country
protest went up against it from the
West and South, and these sections
have been consistently protesting
| against the disastrous and unconstl-
| tutional act ever since.

who occupied adjoining farms in Wake
county. Both were in about the same
circumstances, but one of them was a
careless fellow, while the other was a
planter of the most painstaking
methods. On one five acre crop of
tobacco the careless planter made $3.50,
while from the same acreage and in
the same year his neighbor reaped
5000.
Thus the reader can infer in the outset
that money can be lost in tobacco
growing as we'll as with any other crop,
but, where the proper attention is given,
tobacco holds Quo the most nattering
inducements, as will be snyyn by
actual results in the treatment of this
subject.
The idea formerly prevailed that
tobacco would grow only in certain
supposed to-be favored localities, the
center of one of which was in Granville
county, North Carolina. But that
delusion has long ago been dispelled,
and the Seaboard Air Line system,
which now touches some of the most
famous tobacco sections: :: of the South,
was then almost entirely outside of
what was known as the proper ter
ritory. This great system of railroads
now stretches in an uubroken line from
Portsmouth, Va, with diverging spurs
at frequent intervals, giving it mile
age in excess of 900, and at various
points along the main line and bran
ches tobacco has been grown with the
most wonderful results, and it is safe
to make the statement that the soil
along almost the entire line is highly
adapted to the growth of the finest
types of the golden weed.

which runs from Weldon to Raleigh,

Henderson to Durham and the shorter
branches connecting Warrenton and

The average reader will not be sat
isged with simple pen picture of such
prosperity, and for that reason we shall
produce abundant facts of actual exam
pie which can leave no doubt in the
mind as to what tobacco growing will
do in this favored section. Those who
may not be satisfied with the state
ments here given can write direct to
the planters themselves and have every
statement verified. The following
examples are taken at random, and
hundreds of others can be given of
equal force and importance:
Frank Workman, Of Vance county,
grew 10000 pounds Of tobacco on
eleven acres. The entire crop aver
aged him s57.25 per 100 pounds.
On i acres of this crop the average
yield was over 5000 per acre.
J. J. Laughinghouse sold the product
of 10 acres on the Henderson market
for an average of $3.50 per acre. In
one year Mr.. Laughinhouse sold over
$1,000 worth of tobacco from a farm
which cost him 81, 900.
l. NJ. Green, of Vance county, sold
his crop Of tobacco last year from
about twelve acres, and made a clear
profit on the same of over S,,5oo.
". Henry Hart, OF Henderson,
bought a Sc acre farm for sI,1oo.
From the first tobacco crop he realized
sI,S+S and resold the farm for profit,
all within nine months time.
S. H. Satterwhite, of Vance county,
who lives near the town of Henderson,
began as day laborer some years ago.
and is now worth over $4,000; owns
one of the best farms in the county
and has made the bulk of his money
from fine tobacco growing.
D. y. Cooper, of Henderson, bought
an improved farm in Vance county 70,
s5,257, and from the first crop he sold
over 81 900 worth of tobacco, beside:

a certain extent all farm crops have
deprecated in value very much within
the past few years, and in this decline
tobacco has shared its part but in
one respect it differs from all other
farm products: Tobacco of the lower
grades has declined in price along
with other crops, but the finer types
have, in the face of steady downward
tendency, maintained stiff prices all
the while, for the simple reason that
the constantly increasing demand for
these tobaccos is always greater than
the supply.
In this particular tobacco differs
from the average field crop in the
South, and hence it holds out the most
tempting offers to the careful planter.
1t is a crop which under neglectful
methods of culture and care will
yield the most unsatisfactory returns,
but where it receives the proper atten-
ton the results are simply amazing.
One case comes to mind of two planters
