Saturday in which they were joined by
representatives of the various lodges in
other parts of the county. 1t is we'll
established and accepted fact that ST.
John, the Baptist. was member of
this ancient and noble order and from
this fact a day was specially set apart
in Masonic circles to be observed in his
honor and memory. Meeting at the
lodge room at ten O'Clock in the morn
ing, the order marched in a body to
Glover's grove on Powder Springs
street where the exercises were held
The Marietta brass band furnished
music for the occasion. Mr.. J. NJ. Aus

ter which Rev. ]. T. Jenkins led in
prayer. Col. f. p. Green in fitting
terms then delivered the address of
welcome, after which Col. w. Il. Pow
err addressed the audience on the prin-
ciples of Masonry, going back to re-

gin and growth. The audience then
sang, "All hail the power of Jesus
name," at the conclusion of which the
orator of the day, Rev. J. w. Quillian,
delivered an address replete with wis
dom, beauty and eloquence, and out

building of character, and the shaping
of their mental moral and physical be-
ings for the great temple after this
temporal existence shall have ended.
After singing, "God be with you till we
meet again" the benediction was pro-
nounced, and the Masons, their good
wifes and daughters and friends enjoy

! meetings for initiating candidates and
comforting degrees.

DEATH OF MRS. GEO. 5. OWEN.

After several years of illness and suf-
fering, Mrs. Sallie 4. Owen, wife of
Mr.. George S. Owen, died at the family
residence in this city at 2:30 O'Clock on
! last Thursday afternoon. Her death
was peaceful and calm, like one going
to sleep, without tremor. Thus the
tired and weary body that had been
chafed and racked with pain SO long
and intensely, let the liberated soul
depart in peace. Come unto'm me all
ye that labor, and are weary and heavy
laden and will give you rest" said
the loving and sympathizing Savior,
and she trusted and believed in Him
with loyal and loving faith, and the as
surance is that she is happy in the
peaceful fields OF Eden"
The deceased was 81 years old, and
was member of the Methodist Church
She leaves husband Mr.. Geo. s. Owen,
and two sisters, Mrs N. G. Neal, of Ma
rietta, and Mrs 7. HI. Weaver, of At
lanta, and other relatives to mourn
her death, who have the sympathy of
many kind and loving friends.
The funeral service took place at the
Methodist Church on last Friday after
noon at 4 O'Clock, Rev. J. w. Quillian
officiating.
The pail bearers were Messrs. ]. J.
Hunt, J. ?. Leake, w. E. Williams,
w. r. Power, ID. n. Anderson, and d.
f. McClatchey, Jr.
There. was also an escort of members
of the Cherokee Lodge of Odd Fellows.
After the service, the remains of the
deceased were inferred in the city
cemetery.

The charmed circle broken-a dear face
Missed from its usual place,
But cleansed, saved, perfected by

One less the pilgrims daily cross to

One more the crown of the blessed to
wear
At home in heaven"

AROMAN AIGER

Gibbons Roman Empire, vol. iv., p. 2S3
 According to military practice, the bread or bscuit of the Romans was twice pre- pared in the oven, and the diminution of one-fourth was cheerfully allowed for the loss of weight. To gain this miserable profit, and to save the expense of wood, the prefect, John of Cappadocia, had giv- en orders that the flour should be slightly baked by the same fire which warmed the baths of Constantinople; and when the sacks were opened a soft and mouldy paste was distributed to the army Such un- wholesome food, ass 'sted by the heat of the climate and season, soon produced an epidemcal disease, which swept away five hundred soldiers. Their health was re- stored by the diligence of Belisarius, who provided fresh bread at Methone, and bold ly expressed his just and humane indig nation. The emperor heard the complaint, the general was praised, but the minister was not punished,

PARTY MEASURE

From the Huntsville Mercury.
 The Montgomery correspondent of the Birmingham AgelFTerald wired that paper yesterday that the populists will oppose every amendment offered; that they are in high glee and anticipate split in the dem- ocratic party. Here we have bit of direct evidence tending to show how unwlsely Governor Johnston acted in using the popu- lists to repeal 0 democratic law.
 Governor Johnston can hardly hope to influence the popuists to support the pro- posed amendments. If the recommenda- lions contained in his most recent message are adopted, it must be done by democrats, and a democratic caucus alone can build A foundation for such action. Further more. the governor must use the same methods to bring about the caucus suS- sested that he used to defeat the will Of another and equally binding caucus.
 The Mercury would speak plainly. Gov- ernor Johnston must again reverse him. self; he must urge upon the same men he recently induced to reverse democratic legislative caucus, a democratic legislature, a democratic governor, democratic con- yention and a democratic state executive committee to build another structure upon which constitutional reform may be built. It can be accomplished in no other way.
 The amendments must be made party measure in the legislature and before the DeODle,

This would enable several forts or islands to communicate with each other without any fear of the enemy's tapping or interfering with signals; for If the forts are situated on small heights, the beam of rays would pass above the position which might be held by an enemy. The wireless plan is in daily operation on courses ranging from ten miles up to thir- ty-four miles. the latter being on Salisbury Plain. It is well established that this plan of telegraphy is feasible for such dis tances, but the attempt to use 1t over a sea three thousand miles wide is quite an- other thing.

He is Italy's Edison and Tesla combined.
 The scientists, as body. are still in- creduons over the proposition, and es- pecially the vast and unlimited possibili- ties of wireless telegraphy, but Mareoni seems to be confident that he can make a receiver that will be responsive to only the transmitter to which it. had been adjusted. In other words. each receiver will pick out it's own messages. The reader may smile at present, but next fall he may see after all that no man can set limit upon mans inventive powers.

THE YEAR 1900
Will Be Decreed Jubilee Year By the
 Pope

Washington, May H.-The papaf bulle- tin issued in Rome within the last few days decreeing that the year 1900 shall be q jubilee year throughout the church is ex- pected here shortly and will be announced in all churches throughout the country.
 The issuance of the bulletin on the sub feet gives its special solemnty. It has been the custom to hold jubilees of the church every twenty-five years and at one time these were the occasion of the gath ering of a vast concourse at Rome to re- ceive the special dispensatiOns and indul- gences allowed during jubilee years.
 It is expected, however, by the highest church authorities here that the jubilee next year will be quite generally celebrat- ed throughout the world, thus giving it more universal aspect, instead of being centered at Rome. though doubtless it will lead to many pilgrlmages to Rome and the gathering there of distinguished churchmen. The jubilee next year is con- sidered more important than that held every twenty-five years. as it ushers in a new century and comes at a time when Pope Leo is old and very feeble, his nine tieth year having been completed In March.

THE MEMBERS FROM LEE
From the opelika Post.

From the Opelika Post.
 Both members of the house from Lee, Messrs. Harris and Jones, voted for re- peal, notwithstanding their votes in favor of the bill in December. This was not a surprise to their constituents. who have all along recognized the apparent desire of both gentlemen to do as nearly as pos sible what the governor desired of them. Besides this, Mr. Jones was a defeated candidate for delegate to the constitution al convention, and therefore under the rule opposed to the convention. In voting to repeal the law, they represented per- haps one-fourth of the white people of the county; the great majority of our people being in favor of the convention. If. the gentlemen doubt this proposition, they can test it by running next year for reelection on this issue.

The Land Producers of the Country.

Uncle Sam is the greatest land buyer in the world. and the most persistent. He seems to want all adjoining land, together with some islands of the seas. Jefferson set the pace as early as 1903, when he paid $15. GOO for the vast Louisiana purchase. At one swoop the great jingo doubled the area of the country and the country has followed in his footsteps ever since.
 In Monroe's term Florida, including Mo- bile and the coast districts of Alabama, were bought from Spain at cost of S5,G00 900. We did not pay Spain that amount, but we assumed the payment of claims that aggregated tho sum named. The claims were held by American citizens, however.
 In connection with the Mexican war, Polk paid SIS, 25o, GOO for New Mexico and Caiifor- nia. and Pierce paid BIO 0000,000 for the DOT tions of New Mexico and Arizona that lie south of the Gila river. In Johnson's day Alaska was taken in from Russia at cost of s7,200,O0O Later still Hawaii came to us at a cost of her public debt. And then we paid onlN the other day S2O,OO0OOo for the Philippines and Guam.
 The country is four times larger than it was during the presidency of George Washington, and all of the increase is due to purchases except Texas and Porto Rico. Texas asked to be annexed after she had secured her independence. Cuba and Porto Rico alone were annexed by act of war by conquest outright. Practically speaking Cuba will take the Texas route, although her people may not go through the formal ity of independence.
 No purchase by the United States has turned out poorly. Even Alaska has prov en to be a good investment, and there is little doubt but that the latest acquisi- tions will prove equally desirable. But whether desirable or not, not an inch over which the flag has been formally and flor keeps unfurled has been parted with, and the chances are very good that an inch never will be.

Wireless Teleuraphy,

The great yacht race to be sailed this fall for the Americas cup, which has been held in this country forty-eight years, Is to be the occasion of a long-distanee test of wireless telegraphy. An attempt will be made to telegraph the news from San- dy Hook to the Irish coast by the Mar conf system.
 The average mind can scarcely grasp the possibilities of the universal ether. Mar conf can, however. His method is thus de- seribed:
 Marconi creates by an electric spark the 1ave impulse that passes between his dis tant stations. Two spark balls are placed about half an inch apart, one connecting with the earth by wire and the other sus- pended by a long insulated copper wire, the length of this wire being proportioned to the distance between the two stations. when an ordinary telegraph key between the battery and induction coil is press ed the long verdical conductor is charged and spark passes between the two balls.
 
 Mir Marconi in a description of his meth- 6d, also published in the North American Review for May, land the insulated con- ductor becomes a powerful radiator of elec- tric waves" By pressing the key at long or short intervals the receiver at the dis tant station is affected in a manner that by the use of proper recording apparatus reproduces the dot and dash characters of the Morse alphabet. The receiver is a short glass tube fitted with silver plugs and containing nickel and silver filings. Under the influence of the electric waves set In motion by the electric spSeE at the other station the filings cohere, make the tube conductor, and n current from a cell passes through it to a relay and rings a Of each wave impulse little hammer au- tomatcaiy taps the tube, causes the filings to fall apart, makes the tube non-con- ductor, and puts 1t in readiness for the next impulse.
 But waves put in motion by an oscilla- tory spark, traveling through the common ether or air, would give away news that should be withheld from those who do not pay for it. Here again Marconi is equal to the task in hand. By means of refiectors it is possible to project the waves in one almost parallel beam, which will not affect any receiver placed out of it's line of pro-

GA COLOSSAL ERROR" CONTINUED

From the Milwaukee Sentinel (Rep).
 Either this act of the commissary gener- al was known to the secretary of war, or it was unknown. If unknown, then the secretary neglected his duty. Part of his business was to know how the commissary general proposed to feed the army in the field. If known, then the secretary of war was accessory before the fact to this 'co- lossal error, for which there is no pallia- tion." To the report which uses this lang uage in speaking of the commissary gem eral, and which by implication judges the secretary of war with equal severity, the president has affixed these words: '',rhe findings of the court of inquiry are ap- proved" A secretary who respected him. self and the president would do one or two things: He would either resign or ask for an investigation. president who took an enlightened interest in his own and his party's reputation would either order such an investigation as would show that the purchases of canned roast beef were made with the secretary's approval or because of the secretary's culpable ignorance or else he would remove the secretary. Un- less President Mckinley does one thing or the other, the beef scandal will be a continuing injury to the republican, party.
