day morning. Mrs. Evans asks for $2O.
900 damages for the death of her husband
who was killed by an engine of the com
pany, al Lakeland. Fla, in October, 1899
The plaintiff charges that her nus band
was killed through the gross negligence
of the company and It's employees Ac-
cordng to her contention, he was walking
across the tracks at point freque n ted
by pedestrians. accompanied by THEN
daughter, when a tender approached him
rapidly from behind, without having dis
played a light or tolled "a bell, and ran
over and killed both husband and daugh-
ter. separate suit has been institu ted
for the death of the daughter, for w hicn
damages in the sum of $4,000 are asked
The evidence for the plaintiff was con
cluded yesterday, and to-day that for this
defendant will be taken up. II is said
there are between fifty and sixty wit
nesses, and the case bids fair 10 cons ume
three or four days in its trial The plant
if is represented by Judge Eppes Tuck
er, of Lakeland, and Messrs. Twiggs &
Oliver. Messrs. Chisholm & Clay appear
for the defendant company.
The reason assigned for bringing the
case in Savannah, instead of in Florida

and rather interesting one. II is stated
that the Florida Supreme Court is six
or eight years behind its work and that
a hearing before that court could moi
have been had for some such length OF
time.

Atlanta, Aug. 13.-Bibb county showed

seems there was some error in making
out the returns. There were 800 less re
turns this year than last year, and Capt.
Harrison wrote the receiver, saying that
there must be some mistake, as he did
not see how 800 people could move out
of the county in one year, and that II
there had not been as many removals,
the property should be returned as de-
faulters. All the tax returns are ex-
pected to be in by the Goth.

The general object OF the conference
Is TO create better understanding be-
tween the nations inhabiting these con-
tlnents. and to consolidate, as far as
desirable, their various interests. The
topics to be discussed VIII be agreed
on later. At the last congress some
questions were passed by as unfinished
business. and some OF them may come
up again. One Of these was a plan for
arbitration Of all disputes between
American republics, which failed TO
receive ratification. other questions
dealt with better lines Of communlea-

with the consular service and customs

BRITAIN AND MILITARIsM.

One OF the results OF the South Arr
can war is a bitter discussion In Great
Britain about the necessity OF adopt
ing compulsory military duty. II seems
to have dawned upon the British lead
ers that a large army is one OF the me-
cessities OF the future. and that this
cannot be had without CONSUMPTION.
The people, however, are opposed to
the introduction OF continental mill
tarlsm on British soil. The opponents
point out the great difference between
the German army and British. The
British conscrlpt would be compelled
TO leave his native country and 60 to
the ends OF the earth. among sayages,
swamps and deserts. He would have to
be absent for years and come back,
most probably. with broken health. 1t
Is different with the continental con-
scripts. They are called upon only to
defend their country. They are the
gamers, physically. II not morally, by
the drill they are submitted TO while In
the military service.
The point Is well taken. II Great
Britain wants a large army II VIII
have to be made up OF those who can
devote all their time to the service. That
is, they must be paid LITERALLY, and TAX
en- care Of IN their old age. Besides this
standing army, the youth could be
taught in the schools how TO handle
gun, and the rudlmentary principles Of
warfare. BY this means a more efrec-
tive means Of defense would be at hand
than any army made up Of persons
serving by compulsion and against
their own inclination. What volunteers
can do In an emergency has been DEM
onstrated In our own war, and now In
South Africa, The lesson should not
be lost on the nations Of the earth.

In the platform OF the National Leg
lslative League. the new woman's rights
organization formed in New York on
Wednesday night. reference Is made to
the legal disabilities under which wo-
men are placed in the various States.
and this statement is made; I'm all the
States there Is a discrimination against
women In the matter Of employment
and compensation" The distinguished
ladies who made that platform should
have been better informed on the
Utah statutes than the foregoing
quotation shows them to be. In Utah
the law provides that female school
teachers Shall In all cases receive the
same compensation as is allowed TO
male teachers, for like services" that
no person, firm or corporation snail al
low a woman to work In mine or
smelter; and that in stores, shops, etc.
the proprietors must provide chairs or
stools on which women and girls may
rest. These are the legal references TO
woman's employment IN Utah; and
there Is not word that can be con-
strued into a discrimination against
women either in the matter Of employ
ment or compensation, and the leaning,
IL any. is rather the other way.

KRUGER's FAITH.

Some idea OF the sentiments animat-
ing President Kruger in the hour OF
great national darkness may be formed
from this speech recently delivered by
him:
Although God is testing our people.
my personal opinion Is that the limit OF
the test Is nearly over II the people are
sustained By faith In the time Of adyer-
sity, God will soon again turn the tide
In our favor II we have strong faith
in God ne Will surely deliver us. The
God OF deliyerance Of the olden time Is
the same God now"
This Is sublime. II rises 10 the
heights attained by some OF the great
est heroes Of sacred writ. Stu, Presi-
dent Kruger should be reminded that
Providence has the entire huma, family
TO look after, and not only onl nation.
II II is to the best interests Of man
kind that the autonomy Of the Trans
vaal is preserved, this viii no doubt be
done, even II destroying angel has TO
20 through the camp Of the invaders,
as in the days when the Assyrians were
invading the plains Of Israel. But II,
on the other hand. the interests Of the
human family will be better served by
the establishment OF British rule and
British civilization. this will no doubt be
done Kruger himself should learn TO
pray not for the accomplishment OF his
plans but those of a higher Power And
he cannot ignore the fact that on the
other side there are those who
pray for the success OF British arms
and the supremacy Of British power
