to part with one who had served it 80

"READY MONEY"
@ Philanthropy and Finance.

That present demand for we'll drill
ed Osteopaths greatly exceeds the
supply. Letters are received by the
secretary almost daily asking that
operators be sent out into the world
These requests come from commuDI-
ties where Osteopathy has been known
by its work. But every competent
Csteopath is now pleasantly located
and over run with work, while the
total number of students now in the
school wonid not il graduated, supply
the demand for one State alone. This
demand for Osteopaths will i1icresae.
Every day cures are being accomplish
ed at the Infrmary, and these people
gone and tell their friends about the
new method. Thus the field is broad
ened and new communities where
Osteopsths could step into a good
practice are daily added to the list.
Young men and women who are about
to choose a lite work should invest.
gate Osteopathy by all means before
casting their lot. There is no pro-
fession in which youth and brains will
fad more pleasant and profitable
employment. .
There is no avocation in Life which
places within the reach OF the indus

day rs great opportunities as are offer
ed in the science of OsteOpathy.
Other trades and professions are full
to Overlooking; many are 80 badly
overdOne as to be unremunerative to
even their most experienced and COM
petent followers. OsCeopathy is new.
Its absolute success. in dealing with
disease il guarantee that the young
men and women who equip themsel-

philosophy will reapa rico reward in
worldly goods, and, what is greater

The world is full Of disease and suffer-
ing which all other systems have tail
cd TO benefit. The practitioner who
can reach these people and give them
relief will find the public ready to
giveNhim generous reception.
Ii seems the, part. Of wisdom for
young men aud women to fully in

Lieutenant Scott, Charles Julian and L. w. DEM
aree, All Prominent Men, Killed and Three
Others Wounded One Will Die.
AN OLD FEUD, NOT POLITICS.

SCOTT WAS BRADLEY's NEPHEW.
Ethelbert Scott, one of the princi.
pals in the tragedy, was a nephew Of
former Governor Bradley, by whom
he was appointed as Lieutenant 10
Col. Colson's regiment. Capt. Gold
en- was also in the regiment at the
time of the trouble between Colson
and Scott at Admission, Ala. last year,
and, though Scott sympathizer, left
and come home IN order to keep out
of the difficulty.
GoLDEN's STORY.
One story told about the battle il
that Scott and Golden were IN the
act of going to the restaurant in the
basement of the hotel when Colson
came up to them. He said something
to Scott; they used some pretty sharp
language. Golden turned away from
them, and was the first man shot.
S'1'Scutt was between ColsOn and me-
said Capt. Golden, "and it was blu
let from Colson's pistol that struck
me. Whether it was intentional or a
stray shot l can not say. Colson
could have no possible reason for de-
string my death"
l.. W. Demaree, one of the men
killed, Twas assistant postmaster o.
Shelbyville and prominent in Repub
lIcau politics.
WILD SCENE N THE LOBBY.
The lobby of the hotel presented
wild scene when the shooting began.
The hundred-odd people in the
lobby broke in all directions, out the
doors, through the windows and back
into the hotel.
COLsON's PISTOL DID n.
From the best information that can
be 60: from the many witnesses who
saw the different parts of the battle,
it is generally believed that shots
from Colsons pistol killed Scott, De-
maree aud Julian, and that it was
stray shot from his pistol that struck
Golden.
ORIGIN OF THE TROUBLE.
The killing was the result of feud
between ColsCn and Scott, which
grew up between them while they
we're in the volunteer army. ColsOD
was Colonel of the Fourth Kentucky
aud Scott was First Lieutenant.
They fell out, and Col. Colson sought
to have Lieut. Scott examined by a
board of officers and discharged for
ineficiency. The members of the
regiment took sides and those who
favored Scott wore buttons bearing
bis photograph.
Immediately after the regiment was
out Of service at Annistop,
Ala, ColAon and Scott met in ret
aurant in that city. Hot words ass
ed and Scott shot Colson, inhicting
what was Tor time u serious wound.
Scott was acquitted at his examin-
ing trial at Annleton, Colson failing

South, save on the shores of Chesapeake
bav. The mere fact that such a congress
has been called in Georgia is interesting
as showing that the Southern states are
Weakening to the necessity of restoring
the prestige of this country as a great
maritime power. and to the fact that
their own local industries would be enor-
mously stimulated by the revival of ship
building. which would accompany the re-
vival of the ocean-carrying trade.
The. South is in splendid position to
profit by revival of ship-buiding, in the
utilization of the natural resources which
it has in abundance. Georgia alone could
build a vessel from truck to keel from
materials produced entirely within the
borders of that state. No section of the
Union ought to be more heartily in favor
of a measure designed to stimulate the
building and sailing of American vessels,
in ocean commerce, than the Southern
seacoast states. Yet the Democratic par
ty, to the fortunes of which the South
seems irrevocably committed. opposes all
practical legislation designed to aid in the
upbuilding of this industry; and the
Southern members Of congress, following
their partisan feelings and disregarding
the material interests Of their own Sec
ton. will probably follow caucus instruc-
tons and vote against a measure which
would tend immeasurably to benefit their
own section. The political attitude of the
South becomes more and more paradox
cal as time goes by.

Immigration to the United States from
foreign countries during the year about
closing has been larger than at any time
since 1893. II is estimated that the total
will reach 100000 which is about 1000 less
than in 1898 and double the total recorded
1882. when 7ss.ss2 immigrants came TO the
United States. There was great influx
Of foreigners in the early eighties. but
the totals fell or in 1885. only to rise again
In 1899. when the total reached sss.os4. The
panic of 1898 was followed by widespread
depression throughout the country, and IL
is evident that foreigners thought the
United States n less inviting place In
which to seek home, for Immigration
fell of to Si4.4s7 in 1884, and TO 80 sac In
1897.
on the whole II cannot be said that
the immigration OF recent years has been
as desirable as that which came In the
eighties There have been more arrivals
from Southern Europe and fewer from
the Northern countries. There Is sftl a
considerable tide from Scandinavia and
Germany. hut II is not relatively so arge
as IT was ten years ago. Daring tn year

from Austria Hungary. Another 10000
have come from italy. and about 10000
from Russia The United Kingdom sent
about 5000 of which number 1000 came
from Ireland. In former years. when the
larger part of the newcomers were from
the countries OF Northern Europe. the
tide set West and there was widespread
settlement over the rich farming lands.

new and distinctive names for California
brands of wine, under which they can be
