 EFFECTIVE TODAY Regarding Freight For Other
 Points in District MUST BE SHIPPED DIRECT Extra Charge for ReblIing--one Cent Mile Rate for Confederate Re-
 Union at mphis-other
 Special Rates-Personal.
MUST BE SHIPPED DIRECT

Under a new rule adopted by the rail- roads and which goes into effect tomor- row goods will not be rebilled at Birming- ham for points in the district, or when they are so billed the shipper will have to pay extra. It has been the custom in the past for goods to be billed to Birm- ingham and then rebilled to their destira- ton in this district, thereby taking the Birmingham rate. Under the new rule the shipments must be billed direct to the point of destination, but will continue to take the Birmingham rate. If, however, the shipment is billed to Birmingham and then rebilled the shipper will have to pay an extra charge. The railroad officials claim that they are put to an additional expense in transferring goods that have been rebilled.

The Rules,


 The rules of the Buffalo Club which will probably prove of interest to some are:
 Rule 1. This order shall be known as the Improved Order of the Buffaloes." Rule 2 Every person of the age of con- sent and ability to take drink, hard or soft, shall be eligible to membership. Rule B. The object of the order is to promote the triology of "cons'-congeni- ality, convivialty and converse. Rule 4. The sign of the order shall be Upon a Fierce, Amber. the Tenderloin, Gules''
 Rule D. The grip of the order shall be the grasping of right hands the index finger and thumb crossed-the right hand to be kept behind the back, the left hand at the left ear, the thumb in the ear, the other fingers twirled about at random.
 Rule 6. Tbe pass word shall be 'Omar, Imar. Emar, Rum''-spoken quickly in sequence, then the words repeated alter nateIy forward and backward three times.
 Rule '. The initiation ceremony shall consist of the invocation of the "cons" the cooking of the flesh pots and the breaking of the seal of magnum.
 Rule 8. Regular meetings shall be held every little while-if possible; if not, whenever possible.
 Rule 9. The dues shall be Il cents an- nually, collected on the monthly install ment plan-if possible; if not. whenever possible.

 Agan was still alive at o'clock this morning, but his condition was practi- cally unchanged and death was expected to result at any moment.

No Help for Agan.

The doctors, finding no permanent relief could be given him, sent for an ambulance and removed him to Drs. Tally and Chap mans infirmary in the city, where the best medical attention was given him. But the surgeons had no hesitancy in an- nouncing that there was no possibility of his recovery, though he might finger for twelve nours or more.
 Charles Richards, Agan's companion, was not run over by the car. He was dragged beneath the buggy and badly bruised. He was removed into the resi- dence of MT. wilmont, where the physi- clans attended him. His hands were somewhat mashed and he was apparently suffering from a spinal injury, but he will recover.
 E, J. A. Bradford, the motorman, says his car was not moving at more than the ordinary speed, while the men in the buggy were driving at rapid trot. He sounded his gong and reversed the lever but it being down grade he could not stor the heavy car until 1t had crushed into l the bugy. a s MT. Bradford Is quite a young fellow

Hlndu Relief,


When the land is contaminated men
should, at the time of milking COWS,
let the milk fall directly on the ground
and moisten it. They should also fast.
Deeds of charity and sacrifices in be-
half of ancestors should be performed
in every house, village. and city. For
'impiety is the root Of all diseases. So
says Charaka, the highest authority IN
medical science. The planets should
be propitiated. The observance OF these
good rules will create in men a kind
of psychic force which will purify the
tainted soil, water, ETC., and render
them wholesome Vishu should be wor-
shipped in every house with offerings OF
leaves of tulasi. Such holy observances
will put an end to all pestilential dis
cases like the bubonic plague malarial
fever, cholera, etc. There will be time
ly showers Of rain, followed by abund-
ant harvests; men will pass their lives
in the enjoyment of health and peace.

STATE 70 OWN UTILITIES.

According to authoritative an
nouncements, the government OF can
ada has decided to nationaltze the tel
egraphs and the telephones of the do
mtnion. : lie business elements are
said to be nearly unanimous In sup
port of this reform. The government
counts on an annual surplus OF some
$1,000, 900, and its income rs fncreas-
ing under the usual prosperity OF the
country. It has, therefore, become pos
sible to take the step contemplated
for years, but heretofore precluded oy
lack of available funds. The govern
ment already operates some small teis
graph lines, and not unsuccessluily.
The telephones, If taken over at the
same time as the telegraph, Will Dc
placed in the hands Of the respective
municipalities to be managed by them.
It is hardly necessary to add that the
employees of the companies are anxious
to become the servants OF the state,
knowing, as they do, that from the
government they would secure better
terms and greater consideration. Can
ada is only following the example OF
Great Britain in this respect. me
telegraph was nationalized in England
about thirty years ago, and while there
have been complaints Of inef1ciency,

Idaho, Nebraska and Nevada are

divorce laws as the more widely ad
vertised state. In fact, they beat
South Dakota on one very material
point, for while the last named state
does not permit the remarriage of a

lay no restrictions on either partly.
They also require less notice Of an

ORIGIN OF U. S. ARMY.

In the month of June, I775. the
Continental Congress in session at
Philadelphia passed three imPor-
tant resolutions. The first adopted
and took over as a Continental
army the force of New England
troops which, under the lead OF
Massachusetts, had assembled at
Boston soon after the battles OF
Lexington and Concord; the second
appointed George Washington
general and commander mischief OF
all the Continental forces, raised, or
to be raised for the defense OF
American liberty" the third adopt
ed rules and regulations tor the
government OF the army the arr
ticles of war, which, modified and
amended from time to time. still
govern the army and form the basis
of the military law.
This was the origin Of the Amer
ican army. In the intervening I2o
years nearly 100000 men have
worn its uniform; it has conducted
with success FIVE great wars, cover
ing period OF seventeen years, and
numerous minor campaigns against
hostile Indians and Filipino insur>
gents; it has been the chief instru
ment in restoring order and inau-
gurating civil government after the
war with Spain; from its ranks have
come eleven Of the twenty>four
presidents of the United States and
many hundreds of men occupying
the highest civil Offices, governors
OF states, senators and representa>
tives in congress. cabinet ministers,
ambassadors, and judges Of the
most important courts. For peo>
pie who have never sought war
and have only resorted to it when
reluctantly forced to do so, the
army has filled a large place in our
history. 1t has always been the
subordinate and loyal instrument OF
the civil power In spite of this it
has ever been regarded with cer>
tain jealousy aud suspicion, born OF
other times and conditions and sur
vving with extraordinary tenacity
for generations after those condi>
tons have ceased TO exist. Its
deeds, its history. its traditions and
ideals, the spirit which animates it,
the manner in which it has been
organized and maintained, and its
relations to the people whose faiths
full servant it is and always has been
are worthy Of thoughtful study.
