First-born Children Strongest.

EVerybodyS Magazine.
 It would seem that first-born children excel later born children in height and weight This may be due to the greater vigOr of the mother at the birth of the first child. We are reminded of a fact mentioned later. that out of fifty great men of this century, 30 per cent. were the youngest sons.
 In England 1t was found that growth degenerates as we go lower in the social scale, there being a difference of even five Inches in night between the best and worst fed classes in the community.
 An investigation of 10000 children in Switzerland showed that children born in Summer are taller for their age than those born in Winter: as a majority of children in the public schools are poor, In Wipter their parents are forced to econ omize more on account of expense of heating; their rooms are also liable to be small and. poorly ventilated. while In Summer they are out in the fresh air; food Is also cheaper and more varied. The influence of unhealthy conditions on a very young child would be much greater than when it is older and better able to resist them.
 The man who knows the races naturally does not keep ahead of the game.

STRUCK WITH RATCHET WOMAN ASSAULTED BY KANSAS
 CITY NEGRO. Succeeded in Making His Escape and No Trace of Him Has Been / Found-Threats of
 Lynching. e \

Kansas City, Mo-, June s.--While sitting rocking baby in her home at Second Street and Woodland Avenue this afternoon. Mrs. Mary Schuler was struck down with a hatchet by a ne- gro who appeared suddenly before her. Neighbors were attracted to the scene by the woman's screams. Mrs. Schu- Ter staggered from the house bleeding from the wound in her head inflicted with the hatchet. On the floor near where she had sat rocking the baby, there was a pool of blood. Bureau been ransacked. and bedding had been dragged from the bed by the negro in his search for valuables. Mrs. Schu- Ter was able to repeat weakly 'nigger," ," "nigger" and then lapsed into uncon- sciousness.
 Later. during period of momen- tary consciousness, she described her assailant and crowd that had gath cred, aided by g. squad of police be- gan a search of the neighborhood. The house was situated near the railroad tracks and as the search for the man grew in proportions, the belief gained that he had escaped on a passing train As news of the affair circulated the excitement became intense, and threats of lynching were freely made.
 Half a dozen arrests were made, but no tangible evidence against any of the suspects was found. Mrs. Schuler was taken to a hospital, where examination disclosed two severe, but net necessa- rily fatal, fractures of the skull. An operation was necessary.

their friends; while nearly all the members of the upper House are too experienced in politics not to under stand what a man will do in the heat of such a struggle as now is in prog resslain South Carolina. Still in their temperate moments, and. as they were today, at their own firesides, they look upon the latest phase of the Senatorial fight in that State as being almost childish in it's extremes. Senator Nor gan said:
 Both men are good Democrats. I have no reason to doubt either man. and I consider Senator McLanrin one of the ablest men in the Senate. He is young, he Is modest, but he Is very able. cannot think of one instarce where McLaurin has had his Democ- racNchallenged One may vote for or againsb .eubsidies--but all Democrats in the Senate vote for a subsidy at one time or another and in one way or another-~but still bo a true Demo- crat consider the man progressive who faces each and every public ques- ton as 1t comes up and tries to solve it for himself. Yet. we have our ster- eotyped Democrats. There is an np- portunity to honor the man who, dis agreeing with both the platform and the nominee Of his party. does not step over Into the ranks of the other party,

TOBACCO TRUST WORRIED.
The Independent Tobacco Dealers In
 creasing in Numbers.
Toba eco Worker.

| Toba eco Worker.
 The fight between the Tobacco Trust or Continental Tobacco Company, and | the independent manufacturers of plug and cut plug is being waged to the bitter end in New England, and the | jebbers, as we'll as the retailers. are | watching the outcome with an anxious interest.
 The cutting-off process by the trust continues, and every day the inde- pendent manufacturers are swelling their list of johbers. M. H. Barnet, one of the largest jobbers in Spring field, is the latest jobber to kick over the traces. He comes out against the trust in vigorous terms, and G. M. Tucker of Lynn follows suit.
 MT Barnet said that Mr. Mayhew, of the trust. called on him some time ago, and told him that he had heard he was selling independent goods. and he must stop or his profits in Continental goods would be withheld from him. MT. Barnet's reply was to the effect that he would either sell the goods sur reptitiously as the other jobbers' were doing, or he would sell them openly and in man fashion. MT. Mayhew gave him one week to think the matter over. At the end of that time MT. Barnet wrote the trust representative that he had decided to run his own private business in his own particular way, and that he was prepared to take the consequences. The consequences were long in coming, however. MT. Barnet Is a large jobber and the trust hated to lose the business that he was turning in to them. After a "kick, :" because this particular jobber was al- I1.r AA all 0t1I NThn vv1 that he filled his show windows with independent brands others started to follow suit.The'tr trust soon realized what the general effect would be. and Mr. Mayhew called on the rebellious job- Der and told him he would have have to cut him off. Mir. Barnet says his business has increased 20 per cent,
 A trust representative wandered in- to store in Salem, and on learning that the proprietor was i'll in bed he asked his little daughter if he could get package of a certain independent brand. The little girl. not knowing the man. crawled under the counter and produced the desired article. The package, with remarks. was forwarded to the head office and the customary threat was made to this tobacconist.
 Spotters are being employed by the trust. The tobacco dealer hardly dares to sell the independent goods, fearing that the party buying them is a spotter. If a dealer is discovered selling such goods it means the cut ting off of so per cent of his business.
 One large jobber in Boston was told some time ago about the new deal compelling jobbers to throw out in- dependent brands. and he replied that he had a lot of these goods on hand already and would have to sell them to make himself whole. He was a big dealer, so the trust permitted him to do so. but he must first let them grow stale and mildewy in some loft, and then when he sold them the people would not want to buy any more.
 Many jobbers have asserted their in

Hunt Looks for Free Trade.

New York, June S.--Among the pas sengers who arrived today on the steamer Paunce from San Juan, twas w. H. Hunt, Secretary of Porto Rico. Judge Hunt will proceed to Washing ton.
 pdkts of the decisions in the Porto Rican cases made 1t somewhat uneer- tain when he left the island as to what was the true import.
 Under the decisions. however, he be- lieved it would not be many months before there would be free trade be- tween Porto Rico and the United States. He said that when the new revenue law went into operation after July 1. the Government of the island with duties collected on foreign impor- tations, and with excise taxes, would have enough revenue to maintain it. self. Conditions in Porto Rico were improving and are hopeful. The peo- ple. he said. are adapting themselves to the changed government ana are looking forward to gradual improve ment,

LONG TALKSOF DECISION
SECRETARY or NAVY PLEASED
 WITH COURTS ACTION.
Relieves the Conclusions of the Tribunal are in Line With the Proper Construction of the
 Constitution.

Denver. Col, June s.--Hon. John D. Long. Secretary of the Navy, passing through Denver, en route to Washing ton after a visit of about two weeks with his family, now stopping at Colo rad0 Springs gave out for the first time a statement of his views of the Supreme Court decision in the Porto Rican cases.
 The decision in the Downes case sustains the government and is in ac- cordance with the views of Republi- cans in Congress" he said; "I un- derstand that it recognizes fully the power of Congress- to legislate in its discretion with regard to the revenue laws of our insular possessions. Any other construction of the Constitution would have made the regulations of our relations with the new territory a maze of inextrieable confusion and in- efficiency and would have resulted in the stay of our commercial progress.
 Tt is not easy to detail the embar- rassments in, whioh'ithe administration In insular affairs would have been in- volved. The status Is so essentially different from that of the States of the Union that the same legislation for both is simply impracticable, This is so clear that 1t goes without say ing and this decision Is fortunate.
 "Now. because of this very thing there will be those who will say that the court has been governed by the necessities of the case and the interest of the administration, On the contra ry I believe no other decision was iustifiable as a pure matter of consti-' tutional law and of precedent. It IS the decision outlined by John Quincy Adams, by John Marshall, by Daniel Webster. by the most eminent author tiles and by previous decisions by the court itself. In the old pro-slavery days the effort was made to carry slavery into the territories under the theory that the constitution went there with it and the doctrine never found favor in popular opinion which Is now confirmed by the present decision or the Supreme Court.
 sThe court will breathe freer ana the administration confirmed in It's views and strengthened in it's work VIII car ry it on in the interest of all concerned with renewed assurance of universal good results,"

Reunion of His Glass.

MT. P. H. Pitts. one of Dallas Coun- tvs delegates to the Constitutional Convention, went to Davidson College, N. C., one day last week to attend a reunion of the class in which he graduated. Only about six members of his class were present, but the meet ing together of even that few was 3 pleasant occasion and brought up old memories of college days. Letters were read from 8 great many other members of the class who could not be present. Those that gathered there talked of the success and failure of the different members of the class, and the gathering was a pleasant one, indeed.

Engineer Allen Passed Away.

At an early hour this morning Mr. James Allen, one of the oldest locomo- tive engineers in Alabama. died at his home in this city. For many years MT. Allen was one of the most trusted engineers of the Southern Railroad, un- der the various names under which that system has been known. Once or twice he drifted away to other roads, but soon returned to his first love, and for more than thirty years he has been pulling a throttle for that sys- tenn. He has not been in robust health for two or three years and has not been at work, His friends have known for long time that Bright's disease was gradually sapping his vitality. and while they knew that the end was near, still the fact that the genial old engineer has passed away caused feeling of sadness to pervade the hearts of all who knew him in his younger palmier days.

Therefore no one can say that this man Is not a good Democrat, or that man is not because he may vote for or against some bill in the United states Senate or in the lower House which may appear to involve directly the Democratic or Republican principles.
 I voted for the treaty of Paris rot because Mir.

That shows there is a diversity of views of this question in the South as well as in the North. I do not think that Senator McLaurinS s Democracy can be safely challenged.
 When I read this morning of the &C., ton of the two Senators I thought 1t peculiar that two men of experience such as they are should deliberately in- vite political suicide, and just to see who will be there ",t the first resurrec- tion.
