woman of Washington, Ga. undoubt-
edly holds the most distinguished mill
tary role of any one of her sex in the
South. Governor Chandler made her
a major general in the State volunteer
service. in acknowledgement of distin-
guished courtesies which he had re-
ceived at her hands while visiting the
camp of the Third Georgia Infantry,
situated in the suburbs of the little
Georgia town. His Excellency had
completed about half of his journey to
Washington, when welcoming com.
mittee from the regiment. headed by
Mrs. Bowles, entered the train, and
she wished him royalty graceful well
come. The Governor was entranced by
the beauty and grace of the fair Geor-
gian, and later, when she had SO skill
fully engineered all of the lavish hos
FATALITIES showered on him, he demon

Mrs. Bowles is astrikingly beautiful
woman and is the sponsor for the regi-

A Phenomenon.

One of the strangest phenomenons
ever noted is that discovered by Charles
T. Ackley, who has cut eight cherry
trees from his home premises, each tree
being loaded with cherry skins devoid
of pits, but containing myriads of
bright red worms. There are millions
of the squirming things, but until the
cherries are opened no worms are in
sight.
The trees blossomed and passed to
the pod stage as usual. Then the pods
began to swell, and upon Investigation
the discovery was made that there were
no pits in the cherry skins, but rather
the inside was filled with worms. The
discovery was of such an alarming ma
ture that Mr.. .Ackley razed the trees
and burned them, worms and all. He
sent us just small sack filled with the
swo ollen pods, and there were. worms
enough to keep mathematician and
a naturalist busy counting and dis
coursing for week.
1t is presumed that some insect stung
the blossom, and the eggs hatched af-
ter the cherry pit had formed, the
worms feeding on the soft pit until
there was nothing left but the skin.
Through this they would have ulti-
mately eaten without a doubt. The
attention of naturalists Is called to this
new discovery Waterloo (Ill.) Re

Girls Outfits for Summer Visits.

When we are to be guests at a friend s
house or at an inn we need not trans
port thither our entire wardrobe. A
little planning will indicate the trim,
short travelling skirt, the shirt-waist
and jacket, and the neat sailor hat for
the journey; the pretty reception dress,
the evening and dinner costume, and
the ample supply of fresh waists for
every day wear, with golf or bicycle
skirt. A small trunk and a hand bag
will usually contain an outfit for fort
nights visit, and dress suit case
lends itself accommodatingly to the
requirements of three or four days or
a week. Experienced travellers cross
the Atlantic and spend three months
in Europe encumbered with less lug
gage than some young women carry
to the White Mountains or to the Adj
rondacks for single month. For
many reasons a trunk is comfortable
adjunct when person is away from
home, but it should not be too large
and it should be judiciously packed

When Father Rode the Goat.

The house is full of arnica,
And mystery profound;
We do not dare to run about
Or make the lightest sound;
We leave the big piano shut
And do not strike note;
The doctors been here seven times
Since father rode the goat.
He joined the lodge a week ago
Got in at 4 A. NJ,
And sixteen brethren brought him
home,
Though he says he brought them.
His wrist was sprained and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
There must have been lively time
When father rode the goat.
He's resting on the couch today
And practicing his signs
The hailing signal, working grip,
And other monkeyshines;
He mutters passwords meath his breath
And other things he quotes
They surely had an evenings work
When father rode the goat.
He has gorgeous Uniform,
All gold and red and blue,
A hat with plumes and yellow braid,
And golden badges, toOo.
But, somehow, when we mention it,
He wears look so grim
We wonder if he rode the goat
Or If the goat rode him.

RESURVEfING THE MASON
AND DIXON LINE.
Pennsylvania and Maryland Bear the
Expense of Relocation and of
Cast-IrOn Markers,

The old Mason and Dixon line be
tween Maryland and Pennsylvania il
being surveyed and will soon be re
marked with iron posts. This work il
being done under the direction of DR.
Wm. b. Clark, of the Maryland Geo
logical Bureau, and Secretary of Inter
nal Affairs Latta, of Pennsylvania
The Pennsylvania Legislature in 1899
appropriated $1,000 to "repair and re.
set the monuments on the boundary
line between this Common wealth and
the adjacent State of Maryland on the
South" and in 1900 the Legislature of
Maryland supplied $4,000 to aid in the
| work.
Mason and Dixon's boundary line,
which originally was run and marked
FITS establish the territorial limits of
Pennsylvania and Maryland, later be-
| came famous as the boundary between
the free and slaye-holding States of the
North and South. 1t was, according
due West from Cape Henlopen us
miles south of the point now known
by that name), to the middle of the
peninsula of the Eastern Shore, thence
northward tangent to a circle of twelve
miles radius, whose centre was at New
Castle. Del, and then due north from
the tangent point until it reached
parallel of latitude fifteen miles south
of the southernmost part of Philadel-
phia. From this point the. line was
run due west.
Surveyors had already determined
the position of the centre of the Pc
ninsula, the north and south line and
the tangent point when Charles Ma
son ana jeremiah Dixon, English as
trOnomers and mathematicians, arrived
in Philadelphia in 1853. From the time
of their arrival until December, 1867,
Mason and Dixon were busy locating
the southernmost part of Philadelphia,
and the northern boundary of Mary
land, which they surveyed and mark
ed as far as Dunkard Creek. now in
West Virginia, when they were stopped
by the Indians.
Along the greater part of the line
each mile was marked by stone
monument, which had the letter 'P'
engra we'd Or cut on the northern side
and the letter M on the southern side,
while at each fifth mile there was
similar stone known as the crown
stone,' with the coat of arms OF the
Penns cut on the northern face and
with those of Lord Baltimore on the
southern. These stones were brought
from England.
These monuments, which are to be
replaced with cast iron markers, suf-
fered severely from the attacks of van
dals in the early days of the last GEN.
tury. Rapid progress is being made
in the relocation of the line.

A Singular Escape.

A man receiving the full force of a
heavy stroke of lightning and yet liv-
ing to tell the tale is something be-
lieved impossible by many of the medi-
cal profession. Such, however. was the
experience of Elmer L. Carpenter dur
ing the storm at Sharon, Mass, recent
ly. says the Boston Journal. The
shaft of lightning entered his upraised
left hand, passed the length of his arm,
down his breast and through his left
leg. Along it's burning pathway it
made deep flesh wound the entire
length of the body, as if someone with
knife had made vicious slash.
When picked up the man appeared to
be dead. After hope had been given
up, as one from the dead he returned
to life. Mr.. Carpenter was in the sta
BILE harnessing horse. His hand was
Oh the stable door when he was struck.
Mrs. Carpenter and her year -and-a-
half old baby were in the stable when
the lightning struck. but were not in
jured.
LAS soon as the stable was struck, :"
Mrs. Carpenter said: II rushed over to
where my. husband was. His clothes
were torn open from shoulder to foot,
as if someone had run a knife down
them. When l reached him his clothes
were on fire, but put out the blaze.
The strangest thing is that his left
foot was entirely bare, his shoe and
stocking being gone, and no trace of
them anywhere. We haven't found
the shoe anywhere since then"

Large things are but an aggregation

Take care of what you eat. when you

Cost of q C0urtshiD.

Mrs. Lucie Karger, who lives near
Paterson, New Jersey, began suit
about three months ago against
Philander Simon for $15 worth of
dinners which he had eaten on Sun
day while courting her daughter,
Bertha, Simon proved an ardent suitor
for two years, but when he moved away,
it is said, his love grew cold.
Bertha pined and fretted, but the
mother took more practical view of
the matter. She said she did not wish
her daughter to start an action for al
legged breach of promise, tor that would
seem to prove that she herself wished
to have him for sOn-in-law, when. as
matter of fact, she says she had never
been particularly fond of him. She
evened matters by SUNG him for the
dinners he had eaten. SIMON had hard
work to engage lawyer to defend him,
but he now believes he will win, for
be has filed counter claim. He de-
clares that his two-year courtship cost
him $3.50. Among the items named
are these:
10 pounds candy, at so cents per
pound $3.50
40 treats to ice cream (Bertha's
part) 500
100 sodas, etc ESQ
100 trolley rides and home again, 800
