BY regulating the food of a milch COW,
M. Spolverini claims to have made its
milk satisfactory substitute for human
milk. The first experiments were made
on goat by feeding it with eggs or little
meat in addition to the regular food. and
later on another goat was fed with sprout-
ing grains of barley. In each case the
goats milk was changed tc the chemical
composition OF human milk.

Prose- and Poetry,

Despite the noble work done by men
90 various as Ruskin and Stevenson,
Pater and Newman. one feels that the
full glory of prose, as a medium for
beauty, was not realized by them-is
not yet realized save by few. Prose
is not yet written as frankly for its
own sake as poetry. 1t ought to be.
OF course I do not mean that It ought
not to be continued as a vehicle for
every kind Of didactic purpose. But it
ought also to be used by those who
could we'll use it 80 for the expression
Of merely lyrical feeling.
In modern English prose there are, it
Is true, many lyrical passages, but they
are always sandwiched apologetically
in the midst of expository writing. The
only separate prose lyrics that can re-
call written in English are TRANSACTIONS
from another language, such as Mr.. An
drew LAng's translation from Theocri-
tlls l recommend that dear little book
as an incentive to young writer's of
prose. 1t will embolden them to be
merely lyrical. thus Fastening the day
when writer's Of prose shall be as spe-
cific and distinct class as poets are

The Earth to BE Like the Moon.


The water Of the earth Is all destined
to disappear from the surface of the
globe by being absorbed by subterrane-
an rocks, with which 1t will form chem
determinations. The heavenly spheres
exhibit sufficiently striking examples Of
such an evolution. The planet Mars
shows what will become of the earth
in some thousands OF centuries. Its
seas are only shallow Mediterraneans
Of less surface than the continents, and
these do not appear to be very high,
and in the appearance Of the moon, all
cracked and dried up, we have view
Of the final state of the earth, for the
absorption of the water by the solid
nucleus will be followed by that Of =
atmosphere.

Thus does the old become new.-Republican.

DEFENDS HIMSELF
Robinson Was Passing the
Lawyers Office, When He
Was Shot-Banks Held for
Circuit Court on 5000
Bond-Lawyers Preparing
for Great Legal Battle, and
the Town Greatly Excited.

WINCHESTER Tenn, Sept 25.--
Especial. Editor s. b. Robinson, who
was shot by Attorney George E. Banks,
in front of the lawyers office Wednesday
afternoon, died at 9:30 O'clock this morn
ing from internal hemorrhage.
The trouble grew out of the late ju-
dicial campaign. Editor Robinson sup
ported Allison, the Democratic nomi-
nee, until the last week of the campaign,
and then, for reasons which he consid-
cred sufficient, withdrew his support
and supported Jessie NJ. Littleton.
Two nights prior to the election Mr..
Banks in speech, it is alleged, charg-
ed Robinson with selling our and said
that he had been Republican in Da.
kota before he came TO Winchester.
After the election Mr.. Robinson took
the matter up in his paper and COM
mented upon the charge in vigorous
terms, branding the statements as lies.
Friends had interceded with both men
and the whole affair had quieted down
and nothing more was expected to
come of it.
Wednesday afternoon Editor Robin.
son had to pass Mr.. Banks office while
he was standing in the doorway. He
had almost gotten by when Banks hail
ed him and said: Did you write thai
article9"
~ did," replied Robinson.
"You are id liar" said Banks
and fired, shooting the editor in the
stomach. Robinson grappled witt
Banks and would have killed him with
his own revolver, but citizens by this
time had arrived and separated thu
men. Robinson was able to walk owe
to the doctors Office and did not seen
to suffer much.
The location of the wound was suct
that the doctors we're doubtful of recov
cry from the start, but there were NJ
dangerous early symptoms. Mr.. Bank
was released on bond of $1,000 pending
further developments.
The fatal termination of the atfra.
has shocked all Winchester. A liVel,
legal battle will be the result of tn
killing. Judge Estill and Jesse NJ. Lit
tleton and the firm Of Crownover &
Crabtree will be on the side of the pros
ecution and Embrey & Taylor, Horton
& Baker and one of the leading Chatta
nooga lawyers will defend Banks.
At preliminary trial Saturday Bank
was bound over to circuit court unde
$40, 900 bond.
