ORIGIN
OF PETROLEUM TO be DISCUSS
Ed At THE MINING IN.
sTITUTE.
p. p. Smith and +. A. Reals Will De-
bate the Subject on the Third Of
ApriI-other Important Topics to
BE Considered at the Meeting.

The next meeting Of the Wyoming
Mining Institute will be held on April
3rd. at the University study hall.
The question of the origin OF petro-
leum has been one Of the disputed
points in geology for many years and
has eve been absolutely settled, al
though the greatest scientists Of the
world have studied this problem.
The readers of The Republican will be
glad to learn that this important
question will be debated upon before
the institute at this mentioned meet
ing by Messrs. F. P. Smith and F. A.
Reals. Every n present will be al
lowed to say what he wishes on the
subject. and 1t is urged that all those
interested in oil and its origin attend
this meeting and take all possible ad-
vantage of the two theories. organic
and inorganic.
Probably no definite conclusion will
he reached on this dificult question,
but you will go away wiser than when
the meeting was called to order.
This will not constitute the whole
program, but other topics Of value and
interest will be given. The program
will be as follows:

Some Genes Of my youth fail to bring
me a h~eart-ache,
As each gloomy Monday recalls
them to view
The wash-tub. the wringer. the broom
and the stove-rake,
And all the old eyesores my infan-

The pig in the garden, the COW In the

The rats In the granny, mosquitoes

The wood pile tenaciously pleading for

And cen the old washing machine

The creaky old washing machine,
The leaky old washing machine,
The battlescarred washing machine
That stood by the door.
How wrathfully out from the house I
would jerk It!
A. mother. with pail In hand. calmly
stood neal,
And then with what vengeance at
heart I would work Il
Till the halfshour stroke of the clock

Tribute to Senator Bacon.

The Congregationalist has an exalt-
ed opinion of Senator A. .. Bacon, and
pays him this tribute: eff Senator
Bacon of Georgia is fair specimen
of the sort of men the new south is to
send to the senate then the country is
TO be congratulated. In face, form,
dress and mode of speech he is dis
tinctly different from the type which
Pettus and Morgan of Alabama and
McEnery of louisiana representatives.
venerable, courtly and pOmpous sur
viyors of an era fast passing out of
mems minds. The heckling which Mr..
Bacon had TO endure from the opposi-
ton party in the senate-Messrs.
Spooner, Foraker, Dolliver and Bev-
eridge-tested his temper and resOur-
ces of mind, and it was tribute To the
dread which his opponents have OF his
powers of augmentation. Indeed, il
may be safely said that in Bacon, Cul-
berson of Texas, Patterson Of Colora-
do and Carmack OF Tennessee the
party of the opposition has some able
de baCers who 40 not hesitate TO cross
swords with the veteran republicans. -

A CASE OF SOUR GRAPES.

Ever and anon some candidate for
superior court judgeship is defeated
and straightway his friends proceed to
raise great hue and cry against the
present system of elccting judges by
nopular vote. This is case OF the
fox and the sour grapes. Politicians
who desire to see some favorite elect
ed to a seat on the bench might pos
sibly manage some one man holding
the appointive power, but they can't
manage the popular vote, therefore
their dissatisfaction.
AS a matter of fact, the judiciary OF
Georgia has never been of higher
standard than under the present sys-
tenn, and everybody is pleased and sat
isied except the few disgruntled ex-'
neptions noted.

FATALITIES FROM LIGHTNING.

From 700 to 500 persons are killed
annually by lightning in the United
States, according to an estimate made
by Alfred J. Henry OF the United
States weather bureau. In 1900 the
bureau received reports of 7l3 cases of
fatal lightning strokes. In the same
year, according TO the reports collect
ed by the weather bureau, 973 persons
were more or less seriously Injured by
lightning. The loss of life by light
ding is greatest in the Ohio valley and
the Middle Atlantic states. If density
of population only be considered it is
greatest in the upper Mississippi val
lev and in the middle Rocky mountain
region. OF the 7l3 fatal cases reported
in 1900 29l persons were killed in the
open, I58 in houses, 81 under trees and
56 10 barns. The circumstances at
tending the~death of the remaining l5l
were not reported.
This seems to dispose Of the old SUI
perstition that the safest place to be
in during a thunderstorm is the open
country and the most dangerous under
q tree.

TO TURN NEGROES WHITE.
Manufacturers of a Nostrum Are Reap.
ina a Harvest,

ing Harvest.
There are advertised in the south
nostrums which it is pretended will
turn the complexion white, says the
New York Sun. That shade is guar.
aRteed only to mulattoes. But the ad-
vertisers of the drugs profess that
even the darkest skin NAV be made
from four to five shades lighter, what
ever degree of change that may
show.
With this preparation are thrown in
mixtures to make the hair straight.
The preparation is put up in box and
at the price of 81 finds many purchas-
ers. The profits of this enterprise are
so great that several rival firms make
large sums out of it every year.
Strong acids applied to the skin will
of course take off the outer skin. This
may tend to tighten the color of con-
plexion to some small degree. The
effect will not be permanent and the
application of the liquids must be fire.

used to be sold to remove sunburn. 1t
took off the tan, but it took the skin
with it, and after a while the effect of
this diluted acid on the skin was found
to be so injurious that it went out OF
use altogether.

A PLAQUE of Ants.

A dispatch from Topeka, Kan {,

peared in the northern central coun-
ties of Kansas, and the insects are de-
stroying the alfalfa and wheat crops.
All vegetation within radius of sew
eral feet of their hills is killed. The
ants are larger variety than ever
seen in the state before. They multi
ply very rapidly, and the farmers are
using every means to extermlnate
them. The insects have invaded the
cities and towns. and are making life
miserable for the inhabitants. They
are very vicious, and do not hesitate
TO attack either person or animals in

ATTORNEY AT-LAW
MAN IN HER ROOM.
Cuthbert Lady Had Startling Experience
at Night.

From the Cuthbert Leader.
1t is with some surprise that our
citizens learned that an attempt at
burglary occurred here one night last
week.
Last Thursday night on account of
the heat Mrs. Kaigler left the shut
tiers to her bedroom window open.
Some time during the night she
awaked and, to her horror, discovered
a man standing near her bed. BY the
aid of the electric light she recognized
him to be a negro.
There was no man sleeping in the
house, but in an adjoining room a
negro nurse slept. Though badly
frightened, Mrs. Kaigler did not lose
presence of mind. The called to the
nurse, telling her to come to the baby,
who was sick. 1t was difficult to wake
the girl, and while Mrs. Kaigler call
ed the man did not move. In fact, he
remained until after the sleepy headed
girl came into tine room, and then
quietly escaped through the window.
1t is pity this daring negro was
not recognized. Could he be captur-
ed and come before Judge Sheffield he
would he dealt with in manner that
might serve as a warning to lawlesss
characters.
