We understand that Mr.. W. S.
Moore, who went to his old home ut
South Boston, Va, for vacation
just before Christmas, has been
quite ill for some time. He is now
somewhat improved.
A new guard house has become
indespensibly necessary and the
council has determined to build.
The town owns small lot directly
in front of the school house and
only few feet from it. For three
years efforts have been made to
secure n lot elsewhere but every
effort has failed; and at a meeting
a few days ago it was about resolved
to build on the lot referred to- The
situation of a guard house there
will not be very pleasant to those
who live in the neighborhood, and
and it will practically destroy the
market value of the adjoining lots;
but the council has no alternative.
A number of boys in town are in
the habit of jumping on and off the
trains. They get on every part of
the trains. Some make specially
of riding the eDgine@; some Chamber
on the freight cars; and some enter
the cars blocking the doors and
aisles. The practice is fast .5ecom-
ing an intoleraOle r',isance. Com
plants are loud anS--odmeroas.
We have it from one Of the highest
officials Of the road that this nuis-
ance is worse here in Lake City
than any where else along the line.
The boys are both white and color
ed. The council passed an orti-
nance against the practice some
time ago and for while it was very
effective, but such 4 sentiment final
ly grew up against the ordinance
that it could not be enforced. 1t
was then repealed. The thing
should bo suppressed.
In last weeks RECORD, in speak
ing of the pasture fence, we said
among other things that "throuSh
some misunderstanding no taxes
had been assessed for raising money
to rebuild and keep i'll repair this

derstoed we wish to explain this 81
little more fully. We understand
that the county commissioners re-
ally levied the tax, but that the tax
was not charged up on the treasur-
er's duplicate for the reason that
the late auditor, who took the re-
turns in :the territory affected,
through some misunderstanding
or misapprehensien, did not list the
stock so that the tax could be as
sessed against it. Under the act
the stock running at large in this
territory is the only property
against which this tax can be As
sessed. When we said assessed"
we meant assessed, not levied.

sity cam us and cheered the famous Dr.
Lorenz. ) he passed into the anlphithe :
benefit. The case was that OF "a child
similar to Lolita Armour, with the com
plication that the child had been IRE
viously operated upon by the so called
bloody method of surgery, wit5rou lit
success.
DR.. Lorenz said this lessened the
chance of recovery, but after the opera
ton he said he believed she would be
permanently cured. Her leg will be en-
cased in a plaster cast of eleven months.
Only three patients had been selected
of 1000 offered. The doctor selected
Ethel Goldman, Z years DID, of Roanoke.
Va, the best case. and as he per-
formed the operation he explained the
method.
The operation required so minutes,
about half the time being consumed
with explanation.
As DR.. Lorenz turned to leave the hal,
he stopped to speak to Bessie Robinson,
whom he had declined to operate on be-
cause she was too old. He Datted the
child's head and then laid his great
brown head against hers and said: You

Ne able to escape another boom, no nat
ter how little it may be desired. THE
crest of the BOOM" he says seems to
have passed from the east across the
ApDalachians and is now under full
Roadway for the Pacific coast. Near the
Atlantic seaboa~d the signs of recession
during the last six months nave been
unmistakable Only another season of
good crops saved us from unpleasant
consequences. Now that irrational spec
ulation has been checked there is a
chance for a readsustment of values
upon a more normal basis. When that
is accomplished we shall have a better

Bank c1earings are showing smaller
gains than last year. Railroad earnings
of course make good comparisons with
1901, for traffic is heavy and equipment
is overtaxed. but net earnings are often
showing significant losses, not including
the coal roads. which suffered severely
from the strike. AS previously stated,
the high cost of labor and raw materials
is materially swelling the expense ratio
of the railroads; and when business
falls hack to normal proportions. less
will be spent for improvements and
wages viii have to come down and divi-
dends be reduced. unless the railroads
can squeeze more money out of shippers,
which is very improbable The outlook
for the iadustrials is much less fiatter-
ing than for the railroads. for these are
handicapped by stock watering as well
as the excessive demands of labor
1t is a notable feature in most of Mr.
Clews' predictions that they are like
many weather forecasts, to the extent of
leaving a loOphole of escape for the

Analysis of the November bankruptcy
returns by occupation does not disclose
weakness in any part of the mercantile
structure. says r. G. Dun & CO. in
summary of failures. in fact it is fOunc
that aggregate losses in no single di-
vision of the twenty reached a mil
lion dollars, which cannot be said of any
previous November of the preceding
nine, while few other months equal this
record The total liabilities in manufac
turing lines were slightly smaller than
a year ago, although in nine of the
branches of business there was some in
crease over last years figures. In no
case was the excess large, although one
collapse of. a cotton gin makes a strik-
ing comparison in the cotton class,
owing to the fact that no failures oc-
CURED in this class in most years and
only one in any November of the past
five On the other hand, there appears
a striking decrease in the miscellaneous
class. which covers all manufacturers
except the thirteen specified. In lumber
and kindred lines there appears a decid
ed improvement over the corresponding
months in recent preceding years. A
moderate increase appears in the total
trading losses, nine occupations exhibit
ing more or less increase over last years
figures. IN no case was the increase
extensive, while there was material i'm
provement in some of the other COM
parsons. notably grocers. who suffered
so per cent heavier losses last year.
Miscellaneous trading liabilities were
also much larger a year ago, and still
more so in 1900. Numerically there was
a notable decrease in general stores and
liquors, while some increase occurred in
groceries, hotels furniture and jewelry.
1nsolveneies of brokers. transporters
and others not properly included with
manufacturers or traders were less nu-
merous than a year ago, but somewhat
larger in amount of liabilities.

Michael. a cousin of the car, who lost
his position at the Russian court nearly
twelve years ago. when he morganati-
caliy married Countess Torby, has
usurped power and authority in the cos
mopolitan colony here for many years.
through his intimacy with King Ed
ward.
Jnmistakable signs of rebellion
against the pretensions of the grand
duke and his wife and had been plainly
visible for some time, and the finishing
stroke came a short time ago, when the
grand duke was denied reelection as
president of the fashionable Cercle Maui
tique Nautical club. perhaps the most
exclusive yachting club in the world
The other members, American, French
and British, thought it time to put a
stop to the Countess Torby taking social
precedence over their women folk.
Therefore they elected as president
Count CASTOR Chandon of Briailles.
The grand duke is going to start a
rival club next door to the Nautique,
and for that purpose has rented a new
villa in the garden of the Grand hotel.
Through his followers he announces
that it will be an extremely select affair,
for Michael did not like meeting
tradesmen at the Nautique."
King Edward, who is one of the share
holders of the Nautique, is exceedingly
annoyed at the grand dukes action in
starting a rival club.

OF Importance which it can do for the
city"
1t is the business of the Vinewood COM
pany to fix the street where it lays its
tracks so that it is satisfactory to the city
engineer. If the track changes the condi-
ton of the street so that relaying other
portions of the pavement are necessary,
it is the business of the Vinewood COM

calls for it,
So when the Vinewood company gener-
ously offered to give their labor in ex-
change for some paving material, they Of

1t was most peculiar thing to see the

to give the Vinewood road the paving ma

that the company had no right to ask for
it. and even after Manager Kelley of the
Vinewood road had offered to pay for the
material he needed.

third interest in the property at No. 20
North Pennsylvania avenue, occupied by
William Schoppenhorst. She sues TO have
the property sold, so that she may get

is made defendant for the reason that
it holds a mortgage of 5000 on the prop
erty, given by Russell B. Harrison, as
trustee of the estate of William Henry
Harrison. The Clarks are named as
defendants because of an easement they
hold on the property. The property is ap-
