nish music on the occasion.
The board of managers of State Lun-
attic Asylum No. 4, to be located at
Pennington, Mo-, at recent meeting
decided upon the permanent plans for
the institution. What is known as the
cottage system" was officially adopted
by the board and the plans of Mr..
Hohenschild for five brick two-story
cot ages with a capacity of between
sixty and seventy-five patients each,
together with the necessary domestic
buildings and power house, were adopt
ed. 1t was decided to advertise for
bids on the work and the same will be
received by Architect Hohenschil6 at
Rolla, Mo-, up to May 80. The board
will meet at the Laclede Hotel in St.
Louis on May 81, and no bids will be
received after 10 A. NJ. on that day.
The probable cost of the buildings
was not given out. The appropriation
made by the last Legislature for the
new asylum was $150,000, but it is
expected that an additional approprl-
alton will have to be made before the
buildings are completed. The speci-
fications call for the completion of the
the FIVE cottages by January 1, 1901.
The buildings will represent the latest
ideas and will be of pressed brick. with
the most modern system of ventilation,
lighting, etc. The plans are so drawn
that additional buildings can be put
at any time Before deciding upon the
plans the board made trip through
the East, studying the latest methods
in asylum architecture. Some of the
ideas which VIII be carried out at
Pennington were copied from the new
asylums at Massillon and Toledo, o.

THE MARIETTA CHAUTAUOUA.

so quietly and unostentatiously has
the work gone forward that very few
people are aware of the fact that within
less than ten days Chautauqua which
for brilliancy of attractions has never
been equaled in this section will be
opened at Marietta The project is de-
serving of the most liberal patronage
and when list of the lecturers and at
fractions is given there is no doubt that
it will receive the award of unanimous
public approval.

extends through July 7th, Among the
features may be mentioned the Chicago
Glee Club, the Fifth Regiment band
and as lecturers Bishop H. C. Morrison.

THE MARIETTA CHAUTAUOUA.

The Tribune takes much pleasure in
calling special attention to the pro-
gramme of the Marietta Chautauqua
which opens July |. The attractions
are really superb and in many instances
unsurpassed. The lectures of Hon.
r. Vending, Of Washington, D. c., on
"Stonewall Jackson" and "The Man of
Galilee" are two of the most magnifi-
cent examples of eloquence and schol-
arship and oratory that can be heard
Bishop Morrison's reputation as pull
pit orator is too we'll known to need
commentator from us. Memories of
the famous war of the "red and white
roses" will be revived in the lectures
by Bob" and ALI Taylor There will
be more politics in Hon. Henry Wat
terson's lecture on money and Nor
ais" and Gov. Gamblers address. On
home life there will be the lectures of
DR.. Willis, Polk Miller, DR.. Steele,
Prof. Lane and others.
On July 4th Gen. John B. Gordon de-
livers his famous lecture on "The Last
Days of the Confederacy" and after
wards there will be a comforting of
crosses of honor upon Confederate
veterans.
Prof. Eugene Foster, of Philadelphia,
will deliver lecture on that marvel
lous discovery Liquid air" and wifi
give demonstrations. This is the first
time the people of the south have had
the opportunity of seeing this subject
illustrated with experiments.
In music the Fifth Regiment band
will give two concerts daily and the
Chicago Glee club will be heard several
times Certainly, this Marietta Chau-
tauqua will be great feast of oratory
and song. No better list of attractions
will be heard in the same length of time
at any of the great Chautauquas of the
country. Nearly every speaker has a
national reputation, and all are of the
highest class and extremely entertain
ing.
Every boy and girl in Georgia wheth-
er they have been to college or not who
attends this Marietta Chautauqua
course, and remembers what he or she
hears will receive liberal education

BEGINS NEXT SUNDAY.

Next Sunday the Marietta Chautau-
qua Will open. The time has been uti-
lized by the various committees in
perfecting the arrangements. The pro-
gram is most excellent one, and can
not be surpassed. The most eminent
lecturers in the United States have
been secured. Their subjects are va
ried, instructive, entertaining and hui
morous. The music, vocal and instru-
mental, is the best to be had. In fact
the Association spared neither money
nor time to give the best.
The Chautauqua has been well and
widely advertised. The Association
has done its part efficiently and we'll.

Ex-Gov. Bob Taylor, who will be at
the Marietta Chautauqua next Monday
and deliver his lecture, Love, Laugh
ter and Song, has this to say of our
State: Il think that Georgia was the
original garden and Atlanta was its
jasper gate. l still think that it is the
loveliest flower in the Southern bou-
quet except this daisy" which we call
Tennessee. Georgia is the land of
peaches, pears and watermelons with
brittle pulps of deep carnation, and cot
ton and persimmons and flowers and
sweet potatoes. 1t is the land where
the grapevine gets drunk on the wine
OF its own purple clusters, and fills to
the brim the flowing bowls of m ajors
and colonies. 1t is the land of litera-
ture and culture. Politeness grows on
trees, and good manners bloom in every
home"

II the people of Georgia could be in
duced to turn their attention more
largely to the raising of live stock they
would discover an avenue of profit
which would add materially to their in
come Just think of it, in Georgia, a
state not surpassed by any other in the
Union in natural advantages for this
industry, being unable to supply the
home markets with good beef Local
market men find it almost impossible
to obtain sufiiciency of Georgia beef
cattle for home consumption, and in
consequence the price of beef is up.
Cattle raising in Georgia certainly af-
fords the wise farmer an opportunity
to make money.

the prettiest spots in picturesque little
Marietta, and the railroads all over the
state are offering reduced rates. Hotel
or boarding accommodations are ample
and the prices are guaranteed to be
reasonable. Marietta sits like gem at
the foot of the romantic Blue Ridge,
and visit to the town at any time
would be rare pleasure. But when
such additional inducement as that
afforded by this fine Chautauqua is
presented, we do not see how the
Chautauqua can fail to break the record
of all similar ones held in this state.
The climate is ideal and the people
possessed of that inimitable spirit of
hospitality for which North Georgia is
noted. The site is within easy reach of
all parts of the state, and there is no
plsasanter place to spend profitable
81 mer vacation.
As means for increasing and spread
ing that broader education so essential
to the uplifting of the masses the Chau-
tauqua cannot be excelled. The one
about to open in Marietta offers rich
opportunities in this field, and we hope
its promoters will be amply compen-
stated for their public-spirited industry.

The news from China. while uniformly
Indicative OF a most critical situation, is
perplexingly Inconsistent. In one dispatch
1t is announced that Isl An has ned for
refuge to the Russian embassy, in another
that she has issued an edict encouraging
the Boxers, in another that she has ap-
peared at the city gates In personal ap-
peal to the mobs. in still another that she
has positively refused to admit the inter-
national force to the capital. while the
latest word Is that she has assured the
French ambassador that she will welcome
the troops of the powers. These conflicting
statements about the dowager empress IL
lustrate the entire situation. the only as
sured fact of which seems to be that the
foreign residents in China. and particu-
larry in Pekn, are in grave peril and that
the march of the internationals to the cap
ital Is being opposed by mobs. There are
rumors of flying columns of Russian and
Japanese soldiers. racing for Pekin, while
from time to time during the last few days
dispatches have announced with more or
less assertiveness that Russia was landing
frontier. 1t is almost impossible to collate
these suggestions into a credible statement
of the case. Doubtless Japan and Russia
are closely watching each other to prevent
either from securing an advantage in the
turmoil. but there Is as yet no reason to
believe that either has broken faith with
the representatives of the powers who are
sponsors for the present international peace
movement. Just now the situation most
seriously calls for absolute harmony among

The news of the murder of an American
missionary in China gives a still more seri-
Gus aspect to the crisis from the American
point Of view.
The sending Of a handful Of marines to
Pekin. mainly to guard the legation, will
not, j. is evident. meet the full require
merjs Of the situation. The murdered
American missionary was not killed in
Pekir, and the other Americans in China
are not in or about the legation building.
By sending 100 marines, constituting less
than Il twentieth of the relief force, we
participate in the Pekin expedition and bind
ourselves TO its fortunes just as unmis-
takably as if we had a representation in 1t
China. and with our ability through the
possession of the philippines to meet the
obligations which these interests impose.

Sweet SybiI.

Sweet Sybil seems seraph, sure,
When she a-shopping goes:
Her manners. dainty and demure,
Disturb the hearts repose.
Her gown is trailed in proper style,
Extensively complete.
Admirers watch her, mile by mile,
When Sybil sweeps the street.
She's gently born and kindly reared.
Her life ne'er knew the gloom
OF those who oft have persevered
With dustpan or with broom.
And yet there's none to say she's not
1ndustrously neat:
She seems intent to leave no spot,
When Sybil sweeps the street.
She's very tlmid. that is plain.
When she Is In the house
She lifts her voice with might and main
In terror at mouse
Yet horrid germs and microbes queer
With her find safe retreat.
She gathers them from far and near
When Sybill sweeps the street.
She never seeks to NEEDLE in
Municipal affairs
No lecture laureis would she win,
To write she seldom cares
Yet who shall doubt the city owes
Much to her tireless feet?
Whenever she a-shopping goes,
Sweet Sybil sweeps the street.

Women as Saniturians,
From the Philadelphia Medical Journal.

At the recent meeting of the board of
health Of Pennsylvania DR.. Benjamin Lee
emphasized a truth to which insufficient
attention has been paid. Women he said
are born sanltar!ans, whereas men must
be taught This fact. We should say, Is
based upon the evolution of the race as
the role that cleanliness plays in civiliza-
ton is undoubtedly due to women. Even
today it Is hard work for the women to
keep the best of Ls men clean and tidy
Advantage of this great fact should be
taken in our national housekeeping. True
wisdom consists In utilizing the teachings.
tendencies and habits shown in the racial
development. Women. by office and evo-
luton. are the housekeepers and health
officers Of the family. Let them become
publicly and officially our health officers
and sanitary managers The marvellous
ability and success already shown by them
In this field warrants every confidence
There are millions Of unoccupied women,
who can thus find a work that will bring
gladness to giver and receiver. and that
will lift US long way in the progress Of
civilization.
