figuring on building a boat, will

The Exporter, with a tow of 10
harges and 6 fuel boats, owned by

this week for New Orleans. She

bushels of corn for Baton Rouge.
The Plttsburg News says. The
river coal combine has made a
count of all the coal craft loaded
in the pools and harbor up to Sat
uraay last. There are 375 barges
and about $50 boats, or slightly
less than 100000 bushels. Al
most one million dollars worth of
coal is to go out on the present
rise, which will leave about one
miilionrdoilars' worth still to be
shipped.
The Louisville Coarier-Jou

some of them due within a few

The Women's Club
The meeting of the Women's Club
Feb 20 was with Mrs. Garvin, and
was the most largely attended Of any
session since its organization, there
being but one absentee.
Mrs Liggett was the program
leader for the afternoon, and the sub.
ject chosen by her for the considera
ton of the Club was Liquid Air."
but as usual, "a large portion Of the
afternoon WAS devoted to general
topics. Mrs Markham, Hillyer,
Parrish and Liggett contrib uted ar,
ticles upon the selected subject.
Mrs. Doughty's subject Was Build
ing a Mind in Dull Brain" giving
40 outline Of how children Of arrest
ed mental development are taught
and trained into responsible men
and women. Mrs. Parrish took up
several subjects, first reading de

irrigation OF the arid regions. She
also read an article on the "New

Mrs. Garvin also discussed several
subjects, one being E1- President
Harrison's views on the Subsidy bill.
This meeting Of the Club being 10
near Washington's birthday, all ref

MAN OF EXPERIENCE.
Capt. Lemly, Judge Advocate of
 Schley Court of Inquiry.
Has HaR More to Do with the Pro-e- cuti6n of Naval Law Cases Than Amy Other officer in the
 Service.

Capt. Lemly is particularly well fitted for the exacting duties of judge advocate. He is now serving his third term as judge advocate general. He is a evil as we'll as maritime lawyer. So far as known he has never expressed an opinion as to the merits of either Rear Admiral Sampson or Rear Admiral Schley. He served with Schley in the Essex on the South Atlantic station, and was watch officer on board the Thetis, commanded by Capt. Schley, which, with the Bear, formed the Greedy relief expedition.
 Capt. Lemly says he would feel any personal feeling whatever in the controversy. In all the time he has been at the head of the legal depart ment of the navy, his service dating back to 1899, he has, fortunately, neves had occasion to pass upon any ques- tion that involved either Sampson or Schley in any personal aspect. He has known both-Schley better than Sampson, perhaps. He was one of Schley's personal friends when he Oemly) was in active slime service. Indeed, he accompanied Schley on the famous Greedy relief expedition, and he rendered valuable service to Schley on that occasion, which the senior officer recognized. On the other hand, Capt. Lemly has known Sampson officially in the navy de- partment when the admiral was at the head of the ordnance bureau, and they were thus thrown into close contact in a business point of view at least for several years.
 Capt. Lemly had already arranged to depart from Washington on his annual leave on trip through Cana da some time in August. He will arr range to leave on a later date now, in order to be able to study up zAis

 Women should take five minutes day from work and lie flat on the back, all muNles relaxed. with eyes closed. This will be found wonderful pre- server of health, beauty and strength.
 The bath is a semi-religious observ- ance during torrid weather. Those who must bathe in a thimble of water, DO to speak, should spend long time in rubbing the body gently with a coarse towel afterward.
 If you feel restless keep the fact to yourself. Avoid rocking chairs when you hre entertaining or are being en- tertained. Don't fidget your feet, thrust thein forward, or call attention to them by crossing and uncrossing them. One expects boys to go through a hobbledehoy stage when they don't seem to know quite what to do with their limbs. but in girl that sort of thing is intolerable.

H., from which he graduated in 1873. He entered business as a dealer in grain, and then in hardware. While there he foresaw the possibilities of the wire business, and finally estab-. ished the firm of J. w. Gates < Co. to deal in wire products. He organ ized in 1881 the Southern Wire com pany, and became its president. Three years later he formed the Bad- dock Wire company, of Pittsburgh, and with his associates became inter ested in the Iowa Barbed Wire com pany, of Allentown, Pa, the St. Louis wire mill, and the Baker Wire com pany, of Lockport, III. These com panies were combined in December, 1892, into the Consolidated Steel and Wire company, with capital of $4, 100000. Ic{
 MT. Gates resigned as president of the Consolidated Steel and Wire com pany in 1895, and in that year he be- came president of the Illinois Steel company. He held that position until September, 1898, when the company was taken into the Federal Steel com pany. In the meantime the Consoli- dated Steel and Wire company con- tinued to grow, and in April, 1898, it was combined with other companies into the American Steel and Wire company, and MT. Gates was elected chairman of the board of directors. MT. Gates remained in that office for some time after the absorption of the company by the United States Steel corporation this year.
 Mr. Gates is travelling abroad now, but has large business interests in Chicago. He, and his friends bought the, control, of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company recently at an average. price of about 50 for the stock. He is largely interested in Port Arthur, Tex

Western civilization, pushing eve.. into new lands, has left behind iJ sterility of soil which, within few years, has brought from the keenest scientific observers a most serious note of warning. A day of reckoning is almost at hand, when the earth will no longer be able to feed the people. There is no help to be had from farther pushing onward, for, vast as seems the parts of the earth yet unsettled. it is declared that in all thatarea there is little land which can profitabIy be brought under the dominion of the blow. For the older fields, which must be our dependence, one thing alone, the agricultural chemists declare, is necessary to bring them back to fer tility. This is fixed nitrogen.

celebrated case before the. court meets September 12.
 Meanwhile the clerical force of the judge advocates department can prepare the 9,mass of documentary evidence necessary for use befoRe the points may be gathered ready for the opening. It should be noted that un- der the ordinary rules of practice the judge advocate general of the navy is called upon to review the proceed ings of court-martials and courts of inquiry. Secretary Long has prom ised Capt. Lemly that he will be ex- the proceedings of the Schley court.
 Capt. Lem1y has probably had more experience iii the prosecution of naval law cases than any other of fcer in the navy, and is generally re- garded as one of the best equipped officers in the navy for the important duties which will devolve upon him as judge advocate of the court se- lected to pass upon controversial points resulting from the conduct of the naval campaign in the West In- dies.
 Prior to his assumption of his du- ties as judge advocate general of the navy, in June, 1892, he was prom inently identified with several of the most important trials and investiga- tions in the recent annals of the navy. As judge advocate and record CT of various courts he traversed nearly all points of the world visited by United States warships, going as far as China and Japan in the prose cution of such work.
 He was judge advocate of the court martial convened in China as re- suit of the loss of the United States steamship Ashuelot, and was also judge advocate in the court-martial case of Paymaster Watkins, which sat at Yokohama. He was also judge advocate in the court-martial cases appointed for the trial of ex-Surgeon General Wales and ex-Paymaster General Smith. Probably his most important work of this kind, how. ever, was as judge advocate of the court of inquiry which investigated the loss of the Jeannette in the Are JIG. ndb lnVeSJiBdJiOA was con ducted in Washington and was marked by almost as much acrimony and controversy as the pending Sampson-Schley case.
 Naval officers in speaking of the fairness of Secretary Long in select ing the court of inquiry point to the fact that Admiral Kimberly was Schley's commander back in the 70's.
