generally due to womanly diseases.

You change these opinions when you
see Buenos Ayres. In the first place,
next to Liverpool, believe it has the
finest docks in the world; four miles
of them, built of granite and connect
ed, where convenience will be served,
by steel, cantilever bridges.
"The city itself is beautiful. Some
of it's parks, while smaller perhaps,
are not surpassed in loneliness by any
in this country or the old world the
semi-tropical climate and rich soil
yielding a vegetation as varied as it is
magnificent. 1t has that marvel of
marvels-a police force that is at once
polite and effective. The policemen
will walk blocks out of their way to
show a stranger what he seeks and I
saw one of them hand a drunken sail
or who had cut one of his mates into a
cab with the grace of a dancing mas
ter. But just the same the sailor
went. AS for the obstreperous classes
of the city itself, they cherish a re-
spect for these soft-spoken gentry that
is positively overwhelming and that
has a most salutary effect in preserv-
ing public order.
England Dominates the City.
English money has made the city
and in the city and throughout, Ar
gentina English money is doubling and
TRIPPING itself almost as fast as it can
be applied to new uses. There were
ships of almost every nation except
the United States in port, but over the
majority of them flew the English flag.
English capital controls the banks and
dominates the finances of the country.
The hip inHI1CtrinC for the most rf
are in English hands. The wealth of
the country, that we at least should
share, is being minted into English
sovereigns."
At Buenos Ayres DR.. Frye left the
Kelvingrove and signed as surgeon of
the British steamship Chaucer, bound
for New York.
1.-THE Chaucer sailed for New York"
he said, with a cargo of coffee, on
which her owners made a large profit.
When she returned to Argentina she
carried a cargo of American manufac-
tured products, which though sold al
price that paid largely on the invest
ment, could yet be bought in Buenos
AyreS for 25 per cent. less than they
were offered at before they left New
York.
I'VE are losing the carrying trade of
the world and making no effort to re-
gain it. We are making unjust tariff
schedules that offer other countries ad-
vantages that are denied our own peo-
pie. Certainly we ought to do something
to get the profit that comes from haul
ing our own products. On this last trip

ADVENTIST CAMPMEETING.
Denomination That Excludes Whis-
key, Tobacco, Hog Meat, Coffee and

Denomination That Excludes Whis-
key, Tobacco, Hog Meat, Coffee and
Tea.
Barlow, Fla, Oct. 1.-THE opening
service of the twelfth annual camp
meeting of the Seventh Day Adventists
was held last night, the president Ed
er George 1. Butler being in charge.
The meetings are held under a tent
in beautiful oak grove near the post
office, and will continue till Oct. 10.
These people observe from Friday at
shutdown to Saturday at shutdown as
the Bible Sabbath, for they say God
declared that 1.-The evening and the
morning were the first day." They do
not recognize Sunday as the Sabbath
day.
Another popularity of the Adventists
is that the use of tobacco, opium,
whiskey or other alcoholic drinks bars
man hopelessly from the church. The
use of tea, coffee and pork are also
forbidden, but their use does not nee
essarily exclude man from fellowship.
One of the elders said to-day that for
seven years he had eaten no sort of
flesh meat, and he says that DR.. ]. H.
Kellogg, who is at the head of the
Adventists' Sanitarium at Battle
Creek, Mich, has eaten no meat in
thirty-two years. They use instead of
flesh, grain, fruits, nuts, vegetables,
etc.
There are twelve organized churches
in this state, with 500 Sabbath keep
ers and $50 actual members.
There is but one man known as pas
tor in the entire church, and he is at
the headquarters and birthplace of the
sect, Battle Creek, Mich. Their annual
conferences are held in connection
with the campmeeting. The Florida
Conference was organized at Barber
Vile in 1893 Georgia and Mississippi

WASHINGTON ITEMS,

Residence Burned-Negro with
Drawn Razor Fatally struck BY
Employer.
Washington, Ga, Oct. II. - Mr..
Henry Gardener received tele-
gram yesterday that the residence of
his mother at Wrightsboro had just
been totally destroyed by fire. None
of the household effects were saved.
The building was insured for $1,000 in
the Hartford Insurance Company.
The news has just reached here of
the killing of William Watkins, a ne
gro, who was employed by Mr.. William
Brooks. The negro expressed deter
mination to attend the Athens carni-
val Mr.. Brooks ordered him not to go.
He went. When he returned Mr..
Brooks upbraided him for disobeying
orders, whereupon the negro drew a
razor. Mr.. Brooks struck the negro on
the side of the head with his walking
stick. The negro ran and nothing was
thought until he was found shortly
after. He was unconscious and expired
a few minutes later.

ORIGIN OF THE CINCINNATI.
Founded by Officers of the Army
During Revolutionary War.

Founded by Officers of the Army
During Revolutionary War.
The Morning News has received an
inquiry as to the origin of the Society
of the Cincinnati and the qualifications
for membership.
The society was organized by officers
of the Revolutionary army, headed by
Gen. Washington and Gen. Nathaniel
Greene, each of whom contributed
months pay to it's general fund 1t de-
rived its name from that of the old
Roman patriot, Cincinnatus, the special
fitness being in the fact that many of
the leaders of the army, like Washing
ton, had left rural pursuits to serve
their country.
The right to membership in the So
ciety descended from an officer in the
Revolutionary army to his eldest son
and so down the generations in ac-
cordance with thu law of primogeni-
ture. If the eldest son died the next
son became entitled to wear the honor
and on the failure of the direct line
the right passes to the collateral
branches

Nron&e0 hlIe ASKS Court 1OE n To-
tai Divorce.
Kate Tuten filed suit for a total d.
vorce from her husband, Jacob H. T1l-
ten. in the Superior Court yesterday.
Cruel treatment, to which the plaintiff
claims to have been subjected on sew
erall different occasions. is the ground
of the application for divorce.
The parties were married in South
Carolina on Dec. 20, 1897. A little more
than a year from that day, the day
after Christmas, in fact. the husband
brought the remnants of a Christmas
jag home with him and proceeded to
vent his i'll humor with the world upon
his wife. According to the allegations
OF the petition he struck her with his
fist and otherwise treated her in the
most shameful manner.
On several other occasions since that
time he has repeated the performance,
his brutality eliminating in February,
1900, when he beat his wife and drove
her away from his home. She has not
lived with him since.
AS the defendant is a nonresident of
the state, service of process upon him
will be perfected by publication. The
plaintiff is represented by w. f. Slater.

A SLICK NEGRO.
Jumped Into n Well Handcuned and
Came Up All Right.

Came Up All Right.
currence happened at Mr.. James Wild
denis in Irwin county yesterday. The
negro. Charles Daniels, who gave Con-
stable Jesse Paulk, a thrashing and
succeeded in getting away, after rob-
bling him of his money and pocket
knife, while a prisoner. as reported last
Thursday. was overtaken by the Paulks
and posse Friday. and captured. They
brought the negro to Mr.. WhiddOn's
where the posse took breakfast. The
negro was left in charge of Mr.. Wild
don while they ate. He asked for
water. and asked TO be allowed to
go to the well after it. This was re-
fused him. When the Paulks finished
breakfast and started on their journey.
the negro claimed to be crippled and
begun to hobble. Jesse Paulk told him
TO get a move on him and walk up.
Whereupon the negro started off in a
pace, in the direction of the well. He
Jumped in head foremost. His feet were
chained and his hands cuffed. 1t was
thought that he met instant death. But
in going down he managed to turn and
came up headforemost. He was rescued
from the well with a log hook and
held up out of the water for some
thirty minutes, until a rope could be
obtained and the negro tied and drawn
out. The well was thirty feet from the
curb and the water ten feet deep. The
negro went to the bottom and stirred
up the mud.
Daniels after being rescued, chained
and handcuffed, succeeded in making
his escape again, but was captured last
night near Sylvester, in Worth coun-
~. He is now safe in Irwin county
JAIL. And will be tried for assault and
battery, robbery, and carrying a wea-
pom. 1t is thought that he is wanted
also as an escaped convict, as he bears
signs of having been wearing the irons
recently.

POWDER IN FIREPLACE.
Negro Woman Burned in Attempting
to Light Her Fire.

Negro woman burned In Attempting
to Light Her Fire.
Mary SECURE, a colored woman, liv-
ing at 1909 East Broad street, was hor-
ribly burned on Friday afternoon by
the explosion of a package of gunpow-
der, which had been unwittingly
thrown in the fireplace in which she
was attempting to start a fire. Only
her STOPPING posture saved her from
sure death from the flames, and even
as it happened, her arms, hands, face
and whole upper portion of her body
were burned, in places, almost to
crisp.
The package of powder had been ly-
ing on the mantel for several weeks,
and it is thought that some one, not
knowing the contents of the package,
carelessly threw it into the fireplace.
No sooner had the woman struck the
match and put it under the wood than
a huge flame leaped up and enveloped
her. She ran through the open door,
shrieking as she went. Her screams
attracted the attention of neighbors,
who extinguished the flames with blan-
kets, in time to save her from a hor-
rible death.
