SNUBBED THE SNOBS.
Miss Gould Dampens the Ardor
of Atlanta "Sasciety."
From the Americas Times.

From the Americas Times.
Nothing daunted by their failure to
corral the ''dear pwince" the Allan
tese, or some of the element that bows
in adulation to wealth or position, I'M
dertook to capture real American
princess, Miss Helen Gould, when she
stopped there Sunday and Monday to
visit the negro colleges which north
ern philanthropists haYe so richly en-
dowed. Probably some of the attack
ing party belonged to the "hoss show"
element; so arranging their harness
and adjusting their cruppers, they
stepped oyer to the ''deppo" to invite
Miss Helen to go out and see the Gre
matory and some other strong points
of in 5erest in the environs of Marthas-
vile. But Miss Gould's faithful senti-
mel at the car door quickly invoiced
the social consignment from Peachtree
and gave them the frozen face and the
marble heart by informing them that
Miss Gould was not in. A little later
this lady of wealth went out to the
Morris Brown college and other color
ed schools in which she evidently felt
more interest than in her visitors.
The treatment of the boss show push
was certainly merited rebuke to a
species of objectionable funkeyism.

THEORY TO PROLONG LIFE.
Illinois Man Claims to Do 1t by
Will Power.

That prolonging human life is posi-
BILE through the proper employment OF
ones will power is being put to prac-
teal test by S. V. Keller of Medora,
ILL.,, who, despite his seventy-one years,
walks with the elasticity and dash of
an athlete knows no ills and expects
to pass the century mark of time.
Mr.. Keller is one of the pioneer edu-
Gators of Macoupin county and is
known widely as an advanced thinker
and a man of remarkable mentality.
: He has made a diligent study of the
mind and claims many things for it in
it's power over matter. He now adj
vances the theory that it is in truth the
elixir of life, the power that restores
youth to age, the secret of longevity.
1t is within the power of any one, he
claims, to exercise this force if there
is a sufficient understanding of the
principle and an intelligent applica.
ton thereof. From twenty to thirty
years may be added to ones life there
by, he maintains.
To illustrate his own regeneration
Mr.. Keller the other day in the pres
ence of a st. Louis Republic repre-
sentative faunted his legs and arms
with the nimbleness and perfect ease
Of a ballet dancer. "Seew he exclaim-
ed, starting off sprightly across room.
"My legs are as free and easy as a
child's. 1 am younger than l was thir-
ty years ago"

would be the same in both cases.

would be the same in both cases.
Damage charges are very heavy In
a large city. The Brooklyn Rapid
Transit company had $1,OO0,OO0 against
it in damage suits last year. A mil
lion dollars would raise or depress ev-
cry crossroad along the line of New
York. Philadelphia railroad, so that
there need not be single grade cross
ing, and the most fruitful source Of ac-
cidents would thus be cut off. Then
the expense of building a street rail-
road is very great as compared with
that Of a railroad through an open
country. In this way 1 reach the con-
clusion that railroad fares should be
no greater than those of railroads in
the cities.
"Most railroad men may call me
crazy for proposing to do such things,
but that is because they themselves or
their stockholders have not the courage
to try it, or else they do not know how.
But l can tell you that where l lead
other men will follow. They will get
courage and will see how simple it all
is, provided, of course, the right kind
of management is supplied. And then
it will not be long before the whole
country will be covered by network
of these electric railroads, each run
ming it's single cars or it's trains as me-
cessity may demand.
my belief is that, with the kind of
development which l know is possible,
there would be large profit to an cleo
trio railroad carrying passengers from
New York to Cleveland for 40 cents
and from New York to Chicago for
$3.50.
"T'm no dreamer. l am practical
railroad builder and operator l have
made u fortune by putting fares down
and improving equipment and manage
ment. and | am willing to stake all l
have on an extension of this policy.

NEW CATTLE DISEASE
Farmers of Lowndes Unable to
Find the Cause.

The farmers in the northern part OF
Lowndes county report that strange
disease has made its appearance
among the cattle there, causing them
to die in few hours after they are at
tackled. The farmers who have sut-
fered loss from the disease claim that
they have never seen anything
like it before, hence they do lot know
how to treat it. The cattle are taken
much like horse with the collie, and
die in about six hours. d. w. Pass
more has lost several head of fine cat
tie, and Turner Jones about the same
amount. Other farmers in that Sec
ton complain of having suffered con
siderable loss from the new disease.

SapphireS BY the BarTeII.

State Senator Hobson, who is largely
interested in the sapphire diggings in
Fergus county, Mon, says the story in

many diamonds being found there is a

the furore is a white sapphire, very

extending for miles along the creek

can be found by the barrel.

t'Camille" will be given at the Metropol-
5itan by the Percy Haswell company. The
fame of the celebrated romance by Alex
ander Dumas has travelled everywhere,
but as the play has not been produced in
Minneapolis in several years, the attend
ance next week will undoubtedly be large.
The play is one Of the strongest sermons
and the most :, powerful dramas ever
brought together upon the stage. The
lesson of Camille" is one that will never
be forgotten. It teaches that the wages
Of sin is death, and that the most beau
tifu1 of all atonements Is self-sacrifce.
The sad story of Camille, a Partisan CO.
ouette, has made countless thousands
weep, and 1t will undoubtedly continue
TO cause flow of tears for many gem
erations to come. This is because the
story is eternal and eyerlasttng--the
story of the love of woman for man
and the great sacrifice, even of her own
life, which she made for the sake OF the
man.
Miss Haswell is said to make an ideal
Camille, and to show wonderful pathos IN
the love scenes and in the trying scene
. between the Lady Of the Camelias and the
father OF Armand, in which the father
pleads with her to leave Armand SO that
his career may not be blasted and his in
nocent young sisters life be ruined. MT.

Suggestions for Attractive Window Decoration

Ever since the German Elizabeth took
the public into her confidence In regard
to her garden there has been q marked
increase in the interest in growing
things. But not everybody has the
ground or the energy OF Elizabeth, and
though gardening has. perhaps, more
compensations and as many disappoint-
ments an any amusement, many of us
have to conflne our attentions to a WIN
dow box. Fine lawns are rather a fad Of
Minneapolis pecple, and the unbroken
stretch Of green velvet Is looked upon
with such pride that the introduction OF
a flower bed is decidedly negatived.

HOW TO KILL The ROACH
AND SOMETIMES THE COOK
Deadly Hydrocyanic Gas Recon-
mended GingerIy by the
q. Reconsideration.

From. THO .7owr,.aI Burea4s, Roorn 50, Fod
Building. Wushsssgees'
washington, July 25.--A new way to kill
cockroaches and all those other things
which housekeeper wants killed, is de-
scribed in q circular published by the de-
partment of agriculture. Professor
Marlatt Of the District of Columbia has
been experimenting with hydrocyanic-
acid gas. He finds it delightfully."- deadly.
So much SO, in fact, that two English
sparrows who chanced to be sitting on
the ridge of the roof, were included in the
massacre and rolled into the gutter. The
gas is light and penetrating, and deadly
to humans. If used in an apartment
building, it is warranted to kill every
thing in the kitchen, and In any Of the
kitchens above; SO the experimenter is
advised to warn the cooks before smok-
ing up. In all cases begin at the top
Of the house, and run. 1t is very much
better, too, says the professor, not to be
alone. Have rescue party at hand ready
to plunge In in case you do not appear.
During one of the experiments hehe a
careless negro was dragged out by the
feet.
The materials for making hydrocyanic-
acid gas are not expensive. If secured
to do the business for q five-story house.
Here is the recipe: For every 100 cubic
feet OF space, take fluid ounces Of sul-
phuric acid; mix with double the quantity
of water, and watch it get hot. Do not
become alarmed. The trouble has not
begun Then take ounce Of high grade
(98 per cent) cyanide Of potassium, and
get ready to run. Put lot Of newspapers
down on the floor; on them put q porce-
lain basin (anything metal will be eaten
up at once). Next remove the baby and
the cat and warn the neighbors. Transfer
all milk and moist foods to the neighbor-
