CO-RAC|AL SCHOOLS ARE KNOCKED OUT Gov McMilIan Approves Bill Forbidding Mixed Schools.
 Affects MarwiIIe

Knoxville, March 14.-The signature of Governor McMillin today to the bill passed by the Legislature, forbidding CO., racial education in the State establishes a law that will be operative against Maryvile College. The bill introduced in the Legislature to affect this law was the outgrowth of an agitation by the white students against the admission of negroes.
 The institution has an endowment of about half million dollars, is one of the oldest institutions in the south, and turned out several men of national note. Donations have been received from the Freedman's Aid Bureau of the United ualStates government and some from individuals with the understanding that co-racial education should exist there A peculiar feature is that the negroes have for the most part advocated that the institution discontinue the admission of their race.
 The board of trustees Is divided. At it's last meeting a committee was appointed to see if it were possible to separate from the funds of the college and give just proportion for establishing a separate in- stitution for the negroes trustee says the law is unconstitutional.

FOREIGN NEWSPAPERS
 ON HARRISON'S DEATH

Berlin, March 14.-Concerning the death of General Harrison, a high official said today:
 General Harrison was highly esteemed here and his death is keenly regretted. The estimation in which he was held as an able American statesman, Emperor William was voiced on the generals visit in 1899, when the Emperor paid him spe- cial honors."
 The uninspired papers differ widely in their comments. The Lokal Anzeiger says:
 With this statesman, one of the most emphatic Republicans has departed. He was a declared champion of the Monroe doctrine, with a Pan-American tendency and an advocate of the extremist protec- tionism"
 Nearly all the papers print long biogra- phies. The Boersen Zeitung says:
 General Harrison personally was scarcely popular. His exterior was un- prepossessing and he often showed rude behavior"
 On the announcement of General Har- risons death, the flags of the United States embassy and the United States consul generals office, as well as those of many Members of the American colony in Berlin, were half-masted.

Number of Political Cases.

Washington, March 14.-Attorney Gen. eral Griggs talked with the President to- day about a number of political cases now In the Department of Justice. The terms are about to expire. These include district attorneys and marshals. Except where charges have been made against incumbents where the Senatorial status has changed, the present incum- bents will be reappointed as their terms expire. In a few instances new Senators have succeeded those who secured ap- pointments four years ago. In general way it can be said that the new Senators will be allowed to exercise their preroga- tives and name men of their own selec- ton if they are not satisfied with the present officials.

Every vestige of the ghastly tragedy, even to the ashes, was carried away as relics of the execution. The bones of the victim were broken into small bits and passed around as souvenirs. Photographers who took views of the different scenes during the burning are doing big business selling copies of the pictures taken.
 The news that the Governor has taken steps to investigate the burning does not occasion any discussion. The incident is apparently closed here.

STORY DIscREDITED.
Concerning Southern Companies and
 the Big Combine.

The announcement in a New York spe- cial that General Manager T. L. Clark of the American Sheet Steel Company Is ill Alabama for the purpose of inducing the industrial concerns of this district to en- ter the Morgan combination Is discoun- tenanced by the officers of several of the local companies.
 They state that If Mir Clark has been here he has not introduced himself, nor has he attempted to open the way to ne- gotiations.
 The story Is discredited for the reason that some intimation would have been given of MT Clark's coming through the executive departments of the southern companies located in Chicago and New York.

The Hair in Hot Weather.

Oil the head at night three times
weekly. On the following day wash
with soap and water, rinse and expose
to the suns heat for as many hours
as possible. Let the sun fall on the
scalp. 1t is not necessary to expose
the entire scalp at one time. One
part may be shielded while another
is having its sun bath. Few people
are aware that by a skillful use of
the comb severe straightness can be
remedied. It is difficult to convey in
words correct idea of the necessary
motion of the hand. 1t resembles
that employed in whislsing an egg
into a frothy state. The comb is
moved rapidly and very lightly, with
the result that the hair assumes a
fluffy condition. But this is merely
temporary.

must be leveled down when the cut
ting ceases. Keeping up the leveling
process will dispose Of most of the
weeds. The leaves after cutting, ii
spread on the earth about the hills,
will also assist greatly in smothering
the weeds, besides having considerable
fertilizing value and acting as partial
mulch.
When it is desired to grow especially
large stalks of rhubarb for choice
trade or for exhibition purposes, it is
possible to increase the natural size
by thinning out all but the vigorous
center buds, simply cutting them off
with sharp spade, allowing the whole
strength of the roots TO go to the
large, vigorous looking buds, of which
not more than one or two should be
allowed to develop. TO stimulate the
hill to its utmost, set large flower
pot into the ground between the hills,
in the row, as in the accompanying IL
lustration, and fill it often with liquid
manure of which too much cannot be
given. A good substitute for liquid
manure is nitrate of soda dissolved in
water, using about teaspoonful of
soda to two or three quarts of water.
Varieties like the mammoth treated
by this plan will grow stocks of enor-
nous size and attract much attention.

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

The Importance of healthy cows
and sound milk cannot be over-estl-
mated. Too little attention has been
given to the matter in the past.
Butter may look nice, have the cor
rect grain and be sailed to taste, still
if it lacks flavor or has bad flavor
it sells at reduced price, if at ali. 1t
is the fine flavor in butter that all
seek after.
Are you testing those cows you are
now milking? Do you know the ''star
boarler?" You wouldn't put up with
a hired hand who failed to earn you
a profit on his wages; then why Go
YOU persist in throwing away valua-
BILE feed on an unprofita BILE COW?
Many farmers who are following
dairving and patronize the Swimming
station place little if any value on the
skim milk. A dairyman with
separator on his farm will prove to
YOU the skim milk has a value of
from 20 to 30 cents per hundred
pounds.
If you are in the dairy business to
stay, there is more than one reason
for raising your own calves. You
can not only develop the best milking
strains in this way, but you can be
more sure of having quiet and gentle
cows.-Nebraska Farmer.
