only significant event in the strike today
was the positive stand taken by the
American Tin Plate company in refer
ence to it's course in the future An Off
cial statement from this company today
denies that there are any negotiations
on foot looking to settlement of the
strike and authorizes the statement
that the mills put into operation during
the strike will be continued non-union.
and all men going to work now will be
retained in their positions. This state
ment will have it's effect because of the
fact that the tin plate trade has always
been considered as among the strong
holds of the Amalgamated, and the def
appears 10 have been brought about by
the association declaring a strike against
the tin plate company after the scale for
the year had been signed. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the Amalgamated peo-
pie claim justification on the ground that
their constitution provides for such pro-
cedure, the officials of the tin plate COM
pany consider the action a breach of
trust, and say that henceforth they are
determined to cut loose from union labor
entirely The association officials treat
the threat with Indifference, their only
reply being that the company cannot
carry out it's plan, because nearly all of
the skilled tin workers of the country
are members OF the association and the
plants cannot be run without them. The
corporation, however, has started sew
eral of its plants in a way and claims

Jack Tnrs VIII Be Thoroughly
SchOoIed in Practice With Big
Guns and Small Arms
as Well,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Wnen the
vessels of the North Atlantic squadron
arrive at Hampton Roads from Newport
tomorrow they will engage in a new sys-
TEN of gun practice, prescribed in recent
special orders from the navy department.
The new gunnery instruction will take
the place of two sea practices, and when
a ship has gone through with the newly
authorized gun drill, has the record prac-
tice and four sea practices, her work in
this line hereafter will be considered
complete.
The entire drill will consume the great.
er part of a month and will include
small arms target practice for all hands,
sub-calibre practice, in which, at 500
yards, with the ship under way, ten shots
will be fired at "a target from eacn class
of gun, and preliminary target practice
at 1000 yards by guns of calibre As and
one-pounders.
MUST HIT THE MARK.
The most important trial of marksman-
ship and the one which will hereafter
determine the fighting worth of ships,
is known as fighting efficiency practice.
In this drill, a target fashioned of spars
laid parallel to the water, and, in all,
sixty feet in length will be used. From
this will rise miniature masts, ten feet
high, rugged with canvas. The vessel
will steam by this mark at a range of
about 1000 yards, and going at no less
than eight knots, will fire each one of the
guns of her batteries in turn at the
mark, bringing them all to bear during
her run of a mile past the mark
Actual hits only will be counted in this
trial and the ships fighting efficiency
will be rated by the percentage of hits
out of total shots fired.
tn hand a
the navy department, the navies of the
world are giving great amount of at
tention to the subject of target practice
and many schemes are being evolved in
foreign navies to make conditions in
gunnery practice conform as closely as
possible to those of an actual combat at
sea.

Mrs. T.. Lucich Dead.

The sudden death of Mrs. Mary
Cantoni Lucich on last Friday eve
ming was a severe shock to the entire
community. Mrs. Lucich had lived
in Brookhaven ever since she was a
child; and, although of very modest
and retiring disposition, had drawn
about her friends who loved her;
while the cords that bound her to her
own family circle seemed to strength
en- with the years, through sunshine or
through shadow.
She left to mourn their irreparable
loss, two sisters, Mrs. Frank Hoffman
of New Orleans, and Mrs. Martin D.
McGrath, of this city; two brothers
Messrs, Henry and Pete Cantoni, be-
sides her husband and three depend
ent little ones for whom sympathy is
boundless in their sorrowful bereave
ment.
The funeral of the beloved sister
wife, mother and friend took place
Saturday afternoon at o'clock from
st. Francis church, of which the de.
ceased was devout and loyal mem
her, Rev. A. Althoff officiating; after
which the mortal part of "this earthly
tabernacle" was laid away in the Cath
Ollie cemetery.

SANITARY PRECAnTI0N-

Right now, in midwinter. our citv
authorities should begin and have the
city put In thorough sanitary condi-
ton as a precaution against the out
break of disease In the spring or sum.
mer. Brookhaven has already suffer
ed greatly on account OF bad health
reputation, whether justly or unjustly.
IL Is not the purpose of this article to
discuss; but one thing is as certain as
that the sun shines, and that is that
she will suffer much worse il any sort
OF contagious fever is allowed to break
out and become epidemic here as the
season advances. This can all be pre-
vented by sanitary precautions in adj
vance. There are street cutters and
any number of back yards and private
premises in Brookhaven reeking with
Nth and foul odors right now, which
only need hot sun and higher tenn
perature. to breed deadly contagion.
The editor Of THE LEADER is no health
inspector, but he has observed this in
more than one instance of late in pass
ing about the city on business.
A sanitary inspector Tor committed
is needed, clothed with ample power
and authority in the premises, who
Will faithfully and fearlessly do his
whole duty-one who will take nothing
for granted, but will make a personal
inspection and see that everything is
as 1t should be. Some of the most re-
spectacle and influential people in
town have as filthy and unsanitary
premises as the poorest and humblest.
Filth is not always found in rags
among the poor and uninfluential
least not in Brookhaven,-an we need
sanitary officer who fully appreciates
this and will act accordingly.
1t will be too late to lock the stable
when the horse is gono-in other
words, to begin placing the city in a
semi-sanitary condition next spring or
summer after several suspicious cases
of fever" are announced and other
communities begin quarantining
against Brookhaven and trade is di-
verified elsewhere. Naturally, there is
no healthier town in the South than
Brookhaven, but it cannot hope to sus-
tain reputation for healthfulness if
it heedlessly disregards the plainest
teachings of sanitary laws.
Let the thorough cleaning up be had
now, and let a policy be inaugurated
that will keep the city clean and
healthy through the summer and fall.

Highly HOnOred.

Capt. John H. Mills, widely known
as one of SUBMITS best aud most hon
ored citizens, has been again chosen
treasurer of that town. Last Thurs
days Summit Sentinel says:
Capt. John H. Mills was re-appoint-
ed town treasurer at the meeting of
the new board of mayor and council
men this evening. This is an appoint
ment that we can heartily congratu-
late the board upon, from the simple
fact that Capt. Mills has been a
faithful and Jealous treasurer of the
town for the past 25 years, and will
continue to serve the towns interest
with the same fidelity that has char
acterized his official duties during the
past two and a half decades.
All of which proves that, thoroughly
tested by experience, Capt. Mills
comes fully up to the Jefersonian
standard The LEADER congratulates
him upon this renewed expression OF
confidence from his fellow townsmen.

What "A High fed Jersey Will Do.

Editor Welborn, of the Southern
Farm Gazette, who is also professor OF
agriculture at the Agricultural and
Mechanical College, thus tells of how
he feeds his Jersey, which will prove
of interest to all owners of such a
treasure: "We have spoken before Of
a choice Jersey COW owned by the edi-
tor and how she is fed. This cow is
now eating each day ga pounds (pints)
cotton seed meal, ga pounds tquarts)
wheat bran, pounds (pints) corn
meal and pounds QUARTS oats, along
with cotton seed bulls as roughness.
This looks like expensive feeding
about 49, cents day-but the COW is
giving about "a pounds of milk day,
capable of making full 2 pounds OF but
ter. She supplies all the cream, but
ter and milk the family can use, and
then as much skim milk and butter
milk as the servants can pack nome.
If this cows skim milk and butter
milk be credited at 2 cents gallon,
she will produce butter at a food cost
of about 5 cents a pound at this time
of high priced feeds. 1t pays TO feed
a good COW well and somewhat in pro-
portion to her performance. To show
That this COW needs this much feed'
