PASSENGERSFLEDIN
WILD PANIC FROM
STEAM
FIFTY MEN AND WOMEN ARE
HURT ON TROLLEY IN NEW
YORK IN UNUSUAL Ac-
cIDENT.

NEW YORK. March ia Madison ave-
rue car, on which were almost a. hundred
persons, has met with a peculiar accident
About fifty of the passengers were injured
none OF them seriously.
A new building is in course Of erection at
Forty-fourth street and Madison avenue,
at which a portable hoisting engine is
used, the engine being in the street. IL
stood close TO the track.
The motorman stopped the car as he APP
preached and the engineer told him 10
wait until he could move the machine. The
car conductor thought there was room to
pass and ordered the motorman to pro-
coed. This he did and the car shaved OF
a valve which extended from the boiler.
The suddenly released steam broke the
windows on the side of the car next to the
engine and covered the passengers, scald-
ing them on hands and faces. Others were
bruised by being crushed and thrown TO
the ground during the ensuing panic.

SALVATION ARMY HAS
OPENED ITS RESTAURANT

The Salvation army Saturday afternoon
opened a restaurant at 17S Decatur street.
directly opposite police station, which, in
one respect at least. is the most wonderful
restaurant ever seen in Atlanta. For Is
cents one can get three square meals
there. Not Is cents for each meal, but 15
cents for the three, cents for each, and
they are not bad meals, either.
The restaurant has long been contem-
plated by the Salvation army people and 1t
will undoubtedly do a great deal of good
for the poor people of Atlanta. It's bill Of
fare, though, has been made so attractive,
the price being considered, that it's pat
rons will not be confined to the needy. The
policemen being just across the street
will probably prove good patrons. The
restaurant is in charge of Captain J. p.
Savers, a well known Salvation army
worker,
The restaurant is expected to pay ex-
penses, but nothing more. 1t is doubtful
II IL does even that. But that it will do a
great deal Of good there can be no doubt.

LONG RESIGNS,
MOODY GETS
PLACE
RESIGNATION OF CABINET MEM
Der WAS HANDED TO THE
PRESIDENT ON
MONDAY.

WASHINGTON, March 10-The third
change in the cabinet occurred today when
Secretary Long handed his resignation in
a graceful letter, II being accepted equally
felicitously by the president.
The change was made complete by the
selection of Representative William Henry
Moody, Of Fifth congressional district of
Massachusetts,, as Mr.. Longs successor
in the navy department, effective, May /.
This change has been expected for some
time Mr.. Long intended to retire at the
beginning Of the late President McKin-
ley's second term, but he consented to re-
main until certain lines of policy in which
he was involved were more satisfactorily
arranged.
Then when President Roosevelt succeed
ed, though anxious to return to private
life-for Secretary Long will rever again
enter public life-a strong feeling Of 10y
atty towards Mr.. Roosevelt induced the
secretary to defer his retirement until 1t
was convenient for the president to make
change.
The resignation OF Secretary Long did
not occasion any great surprise in Wash
ington official circles, as 1t had been gen.
orally understood that the secretary OF
the navy would resign as soon as the
Schley-Sampson affair was brought to
conclusion. In fact, it was announced
several weeks ago by the secretary him
self that he would not much longer re-
main in the official family of the presi-
dent.
Mr.. Moody will early visit the office Of
the navy and make himself acquainted
with the details of the office. Not even
rumor has indicated any changes in the
conduct of the office or the displacement
of any employees.
When Mr.. Long entered the cabinet
originally he was an active member of
the firm of Hemingway Long, well
known legal firm of Boston. He always
has maintained a silent connection with
the concern and will again become an ac-
tive partner.

RACE FOR JUDGESHIP
GROWING INTERESTING

SPARKS. March 10.-Considerable interest is
being manifested in the race for judge of this
district. Col. Bob Mitchell. Of Thomasville,
was in the county this week in his interest.
Col. Z. p. S. Denmark, of Valdosta, who is
also in the race. is canvassing the county.
Berrien county seems TO be the main fighting
ground, and IL is conceded that who ever car
ries this county will be elected. Both Of these
gentlemen represent the highest legal talent
in the district, and while the race will be warm
II viii be conducted on a high plain. Neither
candidates fitness for the office is questioned
but II is conceded by the most conservative
men here that Colonel Denmark will carry this
county by afhandsome majority The fact that
Townsville has furnished the judge for the
past sixty years causes the people Of this sec
ton to feel that this end of the district is en-
titled to the judgeship this time.

COTTON BUYERS ARE
AFRAID OF CHANGE

TALK OF. NEW METHOD ON PART
OF INSURANCE PEOPLE WoR-
RIEs DEALERS.

JACKSON, Miss, March 1.-THE cotton
buyers and others interested in the hand
ling and buying of cotton are very much
alarmed over the prospect that the in
surance companies may charge their
present policy of insuring cotton, which
is in gross amounts, and make the insurer
give a minute description Of the. cotton
which he wants insured together with
marks of ownership. If this system is
put into effect endless trouble will be
brought upon all who buy cotton in the
state, and it may affect the sale of the ar
ticle. This is due to a recent decision
who held that the co-insurance clause
cannot be inforced.

ABOUT AMERICAN POLO.
ing Spirit In Introducing
the Game Here.

James Gordon Bennett, the proprie-
tor of the New York Herald, was the
leading spirit in introducing polo into
this country. 1t was he who dined, in
1876, at his own residence, which still
stands on the northeast corner of
Fifth avenue and Thirty-eighth street,
New York city, the following gentle
men: Messrs. William Jay, William
B. Douglass, Charles G. Francklyn,
Winnie Thorn, Perry Belmont, John
Mott, Samuel Rowland and Lord
Vaudeville.
1t was decided to bring from Texas
carload of cow ponies, and, until
within a short time, there was hung
in the Meadow Brook clubhouse, Long
Island, a list of these ponies, distrib-
uted by lot among the diners, at an
average cost of $50 each.
The first game was played during
that winter in the old frame Dickel
Riding academy, where now stands
the Union League club, corner Of Fifth
avenue and Thirty-ninth street, says
e. Willard Roby, in Outing, and play
was later continued at. Jerome park
race course, at Fordham, in 1877,

while at school you will probably go

way to cure it. Shoulder braces will

the head and shoulders erect. / know
of only one bull's-eye shot, says a
writer in Halls Journal of Health.
It is to carry a weight on the head.
A sheepskin or other strong bag filed
with 20 or 30 pounds of sand is good
weight. When engaged in your morn
ing studies, either before or after
breakfast, put the bag Of sand on your
head, hold your head erect draw your
chin close to your neck and walk
slowly about the room, coming back
if you please every minute or two
to your book or carrying the book
as you walk.
The muscles whose duty it is to hold
the head and shoulders erect are hit,
not with scattering shot but with
rife ball. The bones of the spine and

The Panama Hat.

According to a New York dealer
the market is flooded with Peruvian
Panamas. They are woven in Peru,
Bolivia and Ecuador from the fibers
of the palm, which are kneaded like
flax before they are woven. Then
the hats are shipped to Paris, where
they go through a process which
gives them stiffness and gloss. After
journeying to Paris the hats are
shipped to New York and sold for
S1.75. Some of them are rebleached
and generally Americanized, in
which case they are sold for five dol
lars. A really good Panama can be
purchased in the shops this year for
SIS, whereas ones pocket was made
S25 lighter by the same article last
year. The modish persons in New
York, it is said, are not purchasing
Panamas this year, however. The
Panama is growing too cheap to be
exclusive any longer, and the swag-
ger set has dropped it.

the lead seams near Cedar Bluff, in this
county. These gentlemen are well known

sneak in favorable terms of the deposits

near Cedar Bluff is of the very finest quail

interfered with its being mined has been
the question Of quantity.
