PLAN TO PRESERVE FRUIT.
Chemicals Take Place of Cold Air
in Shipping Peaches.

Peaches shipped from Texas the 9TH
er day without refrigeration arrived
in South Water street, Chicago, in first
class condition, and a new system Of
preserving fruit, vegetables and eggs
was pronounced a success by many
commission merchants.
The promoters of the new system Of
handling perishable goods believe they
will be able to supersede the plan of
refrigeration, says the Chicago Even
ing Post. When fruit is loaded in cars,
cold air is not depended upon to pre-
serve it, but the atmosphere of the car
is chemically treated, destroying the
germs that produce fermentation and
decay. 1t Is claimed for the system
that it will preserve perishable prod
ucts longer than refrigeration.
The plan of treating the air has been
tried in storage warehouses and pro-
nounced a success. The company
which owns the patents expects to es-
tablish storage houses in fruit growing
districts and save much of the farm
products that are now lost because it
cannot be handled Immediately.

VOLCANIC DUST FERTILIZER
Splendid Flowers Grown in Mat
ter Emptied from Volcano.

The Kingstown (St Vincent CORE
spondent of the Philadelphia Times
says there is one remarkable fact in
connection with the recent volcanic
eruptions in the West Indies which
tends to disprove the statement of GER
tan scientists that volcanic dust is not
a fertilizer-namely, that in the gar
dens of KingstoWn, where volcanic
dust has fallen many inches deep,
there has rarely been such eplendid
show of flowers. They have come out
in a wonderful way, so that every one
remarks it. 1t is recorded that after
the eruption of 1872 the quantity Of
produce on the estate was unprece-
dented.
AS illustrating how suddenly death
came during the eruption it is stated
that in some houses in st. Vincent peo-
pie were found still sitting round their
tables at tea. One man had smile on
his mouth and had evidently died with
a word on his lips. Another had pipe
In his mouth and his hand outstretched
for match.

WHAT SLEDD SAID.
Emory College Professor Creates
a Sensation.

Professor Andrew Sledd of Emory
College has created a sensation and
aroused much Indignation by an article
he contributed to the July number
of the Atlantic Monthly on the negro
question.
When seen in reference to the ar
ticle Professor Sledd said
II wrote the article and published
it after careful consideration. l re-
gard this negro question as one open
to discussion as we'll "a one with two
sides. I regard it as question the
support of either side of which need
not impugn ones moral integrity or
his allegiance to the south. l feel
that this question should be discussed
as much as the currency question or
any other.
81 have lived in six southern states,
and here as elsewhere find illustrat'
ed the truth of my statements. I'm
derstand me, the two main points in
the original article are The negro
belongs to an inferior race. | in no
wise desire social equality I do be-
leve that state general fact when
I say that the negro is dehumanized
and treated lower than a brute in the
south. | believe that if the white
man can go to the Negroes church the
negro should 90 to the white man's
church. If the white man can have
one thing in any of the public utilities
tie negro should have the same. Il
the negro tips his hat to me or any
other white man | or any other person
should do the same to him, and l be-
lieve that the average white man OF
the south would sooner kill a negro
than forty dollar mule"
Professor Sledd is a Virginian by
birth. He came to Emory college to
accept the chair of Latin in 1898,
which position he now occupies. He
married Bishop Warren A. Gambler g
daughter AND is licensed preacher in
the North Georgia conference.
BURNED IN EFFIGY.
At Covington THURSDAY night a
crowd Of boys made two straw men,
one repre- 5enting negro and the other

Thirty-five million dollars is a large

no reference to our shipments of mules

September, 1899, to December, 1901,

During the single year ending with
June, 1901, England received from
America the Recommending total OF
$4,000 horses, and our entire exports
of horses for that year amounted to
nearly 100000. These figures are
all the more remarkable considering
that about ten years ago, or in 1891,
