USE FOUND FOR APPENDIX.
Western Doctor Promugates New Theory
Regarding The Organ.

A theory was advanced by Dr. Z. P.
Hershey of Denver at the meeting OF
the Rocky Mountain Interstate Medic

said, will excite great interest in the
surgical world. The doctor claims tc

form appendix, which heretofore has
been believed to be a functionless or.
gan. According to the theory, the yer.
inform appendix is a secretory organ,
the function of which Is the fabrication
of the beginning Of the large intestine.
The arguments the doctor advances in
support of his theory are very interest.
ing, but the other doctors. claim they
are not conclusive.
"Dr. Hershey's argument is very
strong one" said one Of the delegates,
"but it is not backed by facts. pro.
test against such a theory going out
from this meeting. 1t will excite a
great deal of comment, and if we are
wrong it will do(uS no good"
The association refused to consider
DR.. Hershey's paper in its original
form, and he was given year to in.

IL STILL LIVE. :"
Daniel Webster's Famous Utter

iconoclast who would have US believe
that nothing was further from Web

the remark made by way OF request
for a swallow of brandy. The doctor
in attendance gave the nurse this IT.

The statesman, it lis alleged, was very

HOW TO CURE HAMS.
Farmers Who Have Hogs to Kill Next
Winter Should Keep This.

Not every farmer knows how to cure
hams properly. Generally they take
hams. shoulders and sides and literally
burv them in salt. The result is that
the meat is too salty to eat and the
favor is spoiled.
The Southern Cultivator gives the
allowing method of curing hams,
which is said to be excellent. 1t does
not kill the meat, but imparts deli
ciOus flavor, and hams cured this way
will keep indefinitely:
For one hundred pounds of hams
take eight pounds of'salt, three pints OF
mOlasses, a quarter Of d pound of salt
peter in boiling water, mix all IN par
rel, or in sufficient water to cover the
hams with pickle; they should be re-
packed in three days, and after that
once a week. They should remain IN
pickle eight weeks, then smoke them s
much as you like. Every time you re-
pack stir the pickle. The objectot re-
packing them is to have the hams on
top put on tt bottom of the caSk.

WAS NOT LOYAL TO PARTY.
Developments Practically Put
Mr.. Turner Out of the Race.

From the Griffin News.
The question so often asked, wheth-
er Mr.. Turner voted for Bryan in 1896,
has at last been answered, and, as sus-
pected, the long delay was because the
answer was obliged to oe in the mega
tive The answer is not direct, but it is
very plain and comes in lengthy JUS
LITIGATION of his course in The Savan-
nah Press, his leading organ. The
argument of The Press needs no con-
traventlon The acknowledgement of
the fact that Mr.. Turner refused to
support his party nominee for the pres
idency only five years ago is enough to
eliminate him from the race for gov
ernor Of Georgia next year, and it is
safe TO say that he will again decline to
"embarrass the party" by being can
didate. This flaw in his record, which
he endeavored to conceal by his inge-
NOUS statement that he had voted for
BLyan and Stevenson, and which his
intimate friend and unqualified admir-
er, the editor of the Macon telegraph,
has remained so sedulously silent
about, accounts for his hesitation in
making dentinite announcement
The Savannah Press may be willing TO
make @ fensive la,e on such an issue !,
but Captain Turher is too prudent anQ
sagacious man TO risk his fortunes
upon such hazard.

OUR NATIONAL DEBT.
Congressman Boutell Gives Some
Interesting Facts.

Congressman Boutell, Of Illinois, in
the October number of The Forum.
gives some interesting facts in regard
to our national debt, tracing it's grad
ual evolution and pointing out it's
peculiarities.
According to the information con-
tanned in this article the United States
vernment, on the Inauguration of
President Washington, in 1889, owed
$40, 100000, to offset which there was
not money in the treasury to pay cur
rent expenses. But in spite of this
condition of poverty in which we be-
gan our national existence we managed
in fortV-four years TO completely wine
oul this Indebtedness
In 1887 there was more money in the
treasury than the government knew
what TO do with. Besides the reserve
OF s., 900, for which provision was
made by law, there was a surplus of
S57 100000. AT this period of our his
tory it was thought to be unconstitu-
tiOnal to appropriate the national reve-
IhCo III lubCtudl III U.s.
and so in order to get rid of the sur
plus congress decided TO turn it over
to the several states in the shape of
loans to be repaid on demand.
Twenty six states in the union agreed
to the conditions OF this proposed loan
and received three installments of the
amount each state being credited with
an apportionment measured by its cleo
toral vote. New York received the
lion s share of the money, getting So
532, 694, While Michigan, Arkansas and
Delaware tied for the lowest amount,
getting 1886, 751.
When the time came for the fourth
installment no payment was made.
Arkansas and Virginia sued the gov
eminent TO get it. but the supreme
court of the United States decided
against them. So far 40 the records
show the government has never de-
mauded the return of the loans.
