Aiken's Northern Sabbath Break.

Charleston dispatch of Sunday to
the New York Sun: Bitter feeling has
been stirred among the fashionable
element at Aiken by the crusade now
being waged by ministers Of the town
against Sunday sport. 1t was announc-
ed yesterday that as the local authori-
ties had failed to stop golf, polo and
other games, the ministers would
preach special sermons in which the
society leaders and aldermen would be
dealt with severely. William G. Whit
ney, who has winter home in Aiken,
is the leader of the smart set there,
and while his name has not been men
toned by the preachers, it is generally
known that his friends have come in
for the harsh talk. It became known
yesterday that the ministers would
talk of the Sabbath breakers today,
but the sermons were not delivered be-
cause a severe storm swept over that
place this morning and forced the
regular attendants to remain indoors.
The good people OF Aiken have been
shocked by the sporting events which
have made Sunday a gala day. On the
golf links, at the tennis courts and
around the polo players the winter
colony has Aocked, shouting and
laughing. This acts heavily on the
provincials. The Sunday games were
popular and more interest was taken
in them than On ordinary days. At a
recent meeting of the city council a
petition was sent in urging the author
tiles to have the Sunday laws against
outdoor games strictly enforced. Mem
bers OF the board declared that if the
ministers were allowed to carry the
point, great harm would come and the
fashionable visitors wouldn't spend
their money where they couldn't do
as they pleased. The crusade, how
ever. was not allowed to drop when
the council refused to send the police
to the links, and other methods have
been resorted to by the ministerial
element. The Rev. I. ". Cliff, ".
A. Kelly, F. D. Jones, Henry Miller
and Father J. L. Seidl, representing
the Episcopal, Presbyterian, Metho
dist, Baptist and Catholic congrega-
tions, and the original signers of the
petition, came out in statement in
which it was said that the pulpits
would ring with the "wrongdoing of
the Four Hunded - The visiting
colony in the town has declined to dis
cuss the affair, although leading mem
bers are severe in their denunciation
of the preachers. They declare that
it is unjust and simply the work OF
sensation seekers. Business men of
the town are not opposed to the Sun
day sport, although the local authori-
ties have been placed in an unfortu
nate position. If the ministers are
allowed to have their way there are
fears that Aiken will lose its popular
1ty, yet, at the same time the church
element is so bitter ir its crusade that
an open clash may result. It is said
that Mr.. Whitney personally, is dis
pleased, and as he is one of the wealth
lest property owners of the town the
citizens are not dispose to incur his
enmity.

THE JAPAN CURRENT.
Kuro sivvo Piles Great Loads of
Driftyvood ON Alagkass Shores.

Kuro Siwo Piles Great Loads Of
Driftwood ON AlagkasS Shores.
In one sense the Kuro Siwo, or Japan
current, is the most interesting in the
world because many oceanographers
believe it was the direct means Of peo-
ping America. This much at least is
certain: If boat were to be set adrift
on parts of the Asiatic coast and sur
yived all storms, the japan current
could be depended upon to carry it
across the Pacific and deposit it on the
American Shore. Such thing has
happened. In 1882 nine japanese fish
ermen were left derelict and unable to
find their way back to shore. They
went with the current. and after
drift lasting during several months
they were carried to Hawaii.
Trees torn by storms from the banks
of Asiatic rivers frequently float across
the Pacific to the American coast. Be
tween Kakatag and. kyak islands.
about 1900 miles northwest Of Seattle,
enormous piles of this driftwood cover
the beaches. There can be no question
of the Asiatic origin Of the timber.
They are the trunks of the camphor
tree, the mango and the mahogany.
Logs $50 feet long and eight feet in di-
ameter are frequently found. Many Of
them are seen floating shoreward, with
fantastic roots standing high above the
waves. In places the logs are piled
twenty feet high. They are generally
without bark, which has been peeled
off by the waves, and most Of them
have become white and heavy from
impregnation with salt water. AS they
pile up the sands drift over them. and
gradually they sink out Of sight, and
new beaches are formed. This process
has been going on for ages. and the
shore line is being steadily extended.
Excavations along the beach show that
texture Of the buried timber gets hard
er and harder the farther in you go.
until in some instances petrifaction has
taken place. Other excavations show
logs that have turned to coal.
The presence Of Siberian driftwood
on the shores Of Greenland convinced
Nansen that his idea Of drifting across
the Polar sea in the Fran was logical.
Great quantities Of the wood are an
nually cast on the coasts Of Spitz.
bergen and Nova Zembla, and there
are tribes Of Greenland Eskimos who
depend for sledge runners and other
wooden implements on the drift from
Siberian forests. For years they de.
pended for iron implements on the
hoops of casks which came to them
over seas.-Theodore Waters in Aims

IMPERIAL VS.. AMERICAN TOBACCO.
Attempt TO Boycott American To-
bacco Company Defeated.

London, march 20.-Ogdens Limit
ed as the local representatives, Of the
American Tobacco Company are known
today gave notice of their intention to
give their entire net profit and e200,-
600 yearly for the next four years as a
bonus to their customers.
This is the American reply to the
Imperial Tobacco Company's attempt
to bovcott American goods. In cir
cular, Ogdens (limited) pointed out
that the Imperial Tobacco Company's
offer to distribute bonus amounting
to ESQ 600 can be compared with the
bonus the retailers will receive if they
continue to trade with the American
amalgamation. The American Tobacco
Company's bonus scheme is the sensa-
tion of the day in the tobacco world
Of Great Britain. Unparalleled"
stupendous. - amazing" are some
of the adjectives applied to this bomb
she'll. The anti-monopoly rule assum-
ed by the American side has brought
them the adherence of a number of
influential retailers who we're opposed
to the Imperial Tobacco Company's
boycott and already one firm, owning
many stores in the metropolis, has
posted notices OF its refusal to exclude
American goods and of its intention to
discontinue selling Imperial brands.
.Ogdens (iimited) today sent out 10,
900 telegrams from their Liverpool
headquarters, carrying the announce
ment Of their offer to every tobacco
tradesman in England. The fact that
Ogden's business in 1900 amounted to
nearly 1886, 600, indicates the enormity
of the sum they are expected to expend
in business.
The London tobacconists immediate
ly called meeting for tomorrow, to
consider their future action.

are thereby made man and wife. In
