Seldom Is a locomotive seen in the
bow of a river steamboat, but this
was the attraction at the foot OF Whit
aker street yesterday. The steamboat
Two States of the Planters Line was
tied at the dock with a locomotive in
her bow, and the tender and a train
of cars amidships. Steam was up in
the locomotive, making the spectacle
the more novel and realistic.
The locomotive is to be used for log
ging purposes at Poor Robin, point
above Savannah, and is in transit. 1t
was brought to Savannah over the
Central Railroad, with Mr.. II. r.
Smart at the throttle. Out near the
Vale Royal Mills arrangements were
made Tor loading it on the boat, ana
at high water the engine was run
aboard under her own steam and
made secure in the bow. With this load
in her bow, the engine weighing at
least twenty-five to thirty IONS, the
Two States was drawing only two feet
forward.
At the Cotton Exchange the steam
ships King Gruftydd for Bremen and
the Kingswood for Barcelona, due
Nov 8, have been posted by Strachan

NO UGLY FRENCH SOLDIERS.

There happened recently at
Mines in France, an event which
brought to light the existence of a
clause in the milit ry enlistment
act, which up to the present time,
it would seem, had not been put in
force. A recruit of the year of
1900 presented himself at the mill
tary depot to enter upon his term
of service. He WAS we'll built
strong, strapping fellow, but his
features Were singularly repulsive
His astonishment WAS less pro-
found than his satisfaction when
he learned from the army medical
officer that they constituted a
cause for exemption from service
and that he WAS therefore free to
return to his home. The cause
under which he received his liber-
alton is that of No. 73, which
reads: Extreme ugliness, result
ing from a faulty conformation of
the features in want of proportion
between them, either through
atrophy on one side or lack of
sympathy between the two, justi-
hes the relegstion of recruit to
the auxiliary series. or even to
total exemption Pail Mall

decided that more locomotives and

A Letter.
To the Ladies of Fremont County

In reading over some of the par
agraphs in Ex Parte, thew
struck me as very strange. a
party which has always advocated
the candidacy of women for school
superintendent in nearly every
county of the state is now making
fight for the candidate who WAS
put up by the democratic conven-
tion because she is a lady, and if
some of the statements made by
TX Parte were not of an insinuat-
ing nature it would not look so
badly
Talking of salary those two
men who are running have far
better salaries than the young
lady. and il she is not competent.
as the statement is made by that
paper, she will surely only fail as
some of the past superintendents
who were men did before her. |
say now, gentlemen, is your op-
portunity to return to the women
of this county some measure of
payment for work done in past for
you by woman.
| have heard men make the
statement that the ticket would
have gone the way OF the weary if
the women had not turned out and
worked last fall And if the two
gentlemen who are her opponents
had spark of chivalry in them
they would withdraw in her favor
in compliment TO what women
have done in the past, but let that
be to their honor.
The women of this county can
elect her if they will and teach the
men lesson for once. Let every
woman turn ont and stand for the
girl, and give her a chance to
show that she has the business
qualifications to run the office as
1t should be run -disinterestedly
not.for.a fa,oed few, as has been
the case heretofore when men were
sh4 ifpoGfpymb fof uni bents Of the office.
baye no ak to grind but feel tuat
we should splift thoses who are,
thrown on their own resources in
life.
The young lady is graduate of
the high school and afterward
spent two years in studying the
higher branches and if our high
schools are what they stand for
she is fitted and we'll equipped for
the duties of the office; if not,
there should be some investigation
of the manner of teaching con-
Quoted by the professors and
teachers of those schools. If after
boy or girl spends his or her
time and is not then qualified to
teach or fill any office that he or
she should be called upon to fill.
there is something wrong
| appeal to you all as fathers
and mothers to consider this sub
ject. You have an object lesson
in this young lady candidate. Let
every woman give her her vote and
elect her, Notwithstanding Ex
Parte is doing the dirty work foI
the men.

hoard lpmsney; and nc one who knows him well will admit that he thirsts for more millions. Not long since Sir Thomas said to the writer: I've got money enough The accent was on 4 the last word.
 An employee at "Lipton'S" said' | 'EVerybody who works for Sir Thomas
 likes and respects him. He is plain man, and he likes plain dealing. He wants every man to speak his mind and he detests flattery. Like all enor- mously successful men, he is a disci- plinarian, but he has a lot of heart and sympathy, and I have known of many cases in which he has given 8 | man another chance"
 At Osidge Sir Thomas entertains- practically speaking hardly at all. | When he entertains on anything like a lavish scale, he prefers to do it at a London restaurant or at his club, the Marlborough, To his country house. however, he invites his pals, as he calls I them--one is member of Parliament, another a retired British officer of high social connections--and, as might be imagined, the time is passed without much formality. Sir Thomas is not a great reader, although he has large and well selected library, but he is especially fond of billiards, rides a bi cycle, plays golf and bowls, besides spending lot of time with his horses among them several notable trotters-- to say nothing of having pretty and luXuriant taste in orchids, in which he resembles Joseph Chamberlain.
 One of the features of Osidge is it's golf links, the other is a wonderful summer house, which Sir Thomas, taking leaf out of the Swiss Family Robinson book, has established amid the branches of a tree on his place around the trunk, and seats half doz- en comfortably. Sir Thomas gives his women callers tea there, and there it is too that he and his little coterie of in- innate friends smoke their after dinner cigars.
 One of Sir Thomas close acquaint- ances said of him the other day:
 One of his characteristics is that he never uses the I-began- without dol lar tone. He is entirely without osten tation. The general accepted idea that he began life In the depths of poverty is however, incorrect, though of course his beginnings were extremely small. A man in Glasgow who believed in his ability lent him money enough to open little shop there, and his great busi- ness has grown from it. He has often told me that his first and greatest ann bition was to be able to see his mother riding in her own carriage, and he sue In, zt nc her a fine house to live in besides " Over Sir Thomas desk in his office hangs pictures of both his parents, neither of whom is now living.
 Sir Thomas is interested in reading what is written about him. and one of his employees has the task of putting cuttings into an elaborately- bound volume which he destined for place in the Upton library.

SWORDS ON EXHIBITION.

They Were Carried by Famous Gen.
 erals in the Civil War-Objects of Venera tion.
 | The swords worn by the many famous
 American generals in the service of
 their country are at the exposition now
 and may be seen by all visitors who
 will go to the West Point exhibit in the Government building, The swords are
 not thrust forward in an obstrusive location. They are ranged side by side around the two columns on the east
 wall. Around them are trophies of war,
 pictures of soldiery, scenes of battles,
 models of instruments of destruction and salvation, uniforms, momentos and
 many other features of an exhibit that l is an honor to West Point and grati-
 fication to the officials of the exposi- | ton.
 But the swords are the great feature,
 It is around them tradition clings
 They stir the imagination, they thrill ] the memories of old men and draw the younger sightseers with magnetic pow CT. Grants sword Is there, his service sword He wore ,at Vicksburg The 1 scabbard has signs of wear, due to clanking at the great commanders side | through the trying days and weary nights. The handle of the sword shows it has been carried There may be whte-haired men to-day who have seen the blade, bare of it's scabbard, point the path of death for long lines of blue. It seems so still and cold and silent now. One must think twice to realize what scepter it was. what wand of the war god, colossal in single wave hither or thither,
 Sherman's sword is there. From han dle and hilt to capped tip, the scabbard is thick with the names of battles dates of conflicts, whole history carv- ed in the steel of a worn scabbard. Sin gle lines stand for deeds of valor where thousands fell and the Union triumph ed The long march, the sweep of de- vastation, the struggles, one by one, are told
 Sheridan's sword is there.
 The sword of Thomas, the Rock of Chickamauga, is there. There were men at the G. A. R. encampment in Buffalo, who had heard Sheridan's voice as his sword flashed in beckons to them to turn and fight and die, There were men who had stood with Thomas when his great fight was made.
 Halleck's sword is there McPher- sons sword is there. McClellan's sword is there, the blade and scabbard he wore at Antietam Meades sword, that went with him through the great days at Gettysburg, is there. Schofields sword is there. They are ten souvenirs of a mighty struggle. Old men who have found them out on the two columns against the east wall uncover as they stand before them.

as interesting as their structure. l al most everything in precious metal ha!
 vanished, everything in bronze seem'
 to have remained, in the shape of weap
 ons, tools, and vessels. Among tht many clay vases occur complete speci ments of types previously inferred from fragments only; and among tht
 chambers is one which from the objects and symbols found in 1t, may safely be l inferred to have been small shrine { These houses, however, end their con- tents, though the more intelligible from | belonging all to one primitive epoch | are for that reason, less instructive
 than the scantier remains which found at Zakro For these illustrate all the immense interval between the Neoithio and Hellenic ages. Zakro lay (and lies) remote from a.ny center of civilization,
 behind high mountains on the extreme southeast angle of Crete.
 The main site has suffered greatly from denudation, but the ruins of the town show it to have been of more mas slve character than that at Gorynia.
 The houses have like party Wa|s of
 brick, but their outer walls are true
 "Cyclopean" They are also of great
 size; one, for example, was found to contain over twenty chambers, and, ut-
 terly ruined though it was, it yielded over seventy vases besides many frag- ments, and objects in silver, bronze and stone. The most productive structure lies in the crown of the knoll, frag- ment of a large group of connected blocks, which probably formed the resi- dence of the chief In one room of this were found not only the two inscribed tablets, mentioned above, but deposit of bronze implements and vases, among which one with decoration of shells and marine stars may claim to be the most graceful of "Myeenaean" ceramic pro- ducts. Here, too, were found the hun dred of impressions of lost signets, al- ready alluded to, lying in a heap as if once contained in box, long ago per- ished. The separate types represented number 150, and illustrate in remark able way not only late "Mycenaean" glyptic art, but also "Mycenaean" re- ligious symbolism. For instance, we note several bull headed human figures, associated in two cases with women bippti III lHt y pICdi Iptillt6d ShlI lo ol the period, pre- Greek Minotaurs, and Ariadnes So well preserved are these impressions that it has been possible to take casts of them for study in Eng land.
 The general result of east Cretan ex- ploration seems like to establish the fact that the Pan-Aegean civilization which it Is agreed to call "Mycenaen," was foreign in that part of the island; and that the native civilization, exist ing before and concident With 1t, was much ruder than (and perhaps of diff ferent character) that of mid Crete. If this be really the case, an important inference must be drawn-viz., that the Knossian tablets have probably nothing to do with the Praesos inscriptions; and that the non-Greek language of the latter. if ever interpreted, will sup ply no key to the most interested pug gle that Cretan excavation has sup piled.
