A Card from Epworth Orphanaee

Editor Herald and News In your
issue of August II you make mention
of one Carolson Bradley as runaway
from the "Orphanage in Columbia. !"
Fearing that the impression may get
abroad that he ran away from the Ep-
worth Orphanage, we ask you to please
publish in your next issue that no such
boy was ever enrolled here Carolson
Bradley has not been here nor is he
here now. Please set us in the proper
light in this matter.
Our children are contented and stay
at home. Sincerely,

New Domestic Department to be Op-
 >.' ened in October.
 Through the generosity of Edward P. Dickie of Guilford, the Young Wo- mems Christian association of this city is enabled to open a domestic depart- ment' under the charge of Miss S. Agnes Donhann, graduate of the Bos- ton cooking school, who comes highly endorsed after seven years of suc- cessful teaching.
 This enterprise has for it's purpose the elevation of household duties, the training of young women in the prep aration of nutritious, inexpensive and appetizing food; for more intelligent care of their own homes, and for some of the many fields open to them as ma irons, housekeepers, home makers and housemaids.
 The association is prepared to open classes in laundry work, simple cook ing with food principles, plain cooking, advanced cooking, chafing dish cook ing, salads and desserts, invalid cook ing, dinner courses, method lessons, ta- ble waiting, and housemaids' course.
 The rates for all classes will be rea- sonable and some will be free. It is hoped that this venture will appeal to the women of New Haven as, if well supported, it will become a permanent feature of the association work.
 The classes will be opened the first week in October. For further infor- nation call at the association office 56S Chapel street.

TALES CHANGES GOOD.

So Thinks Trainer Mike Murphy-To
 Have Good Eleven.
 Mike Murphy, YaIes veteran trainer who has returned to this city, will start his preparations for the training of the Yale football men at once.
 In conversing on the prospects of the Blue on the gridiron this season, Mur- phy said that it was still too early to get any definite idea as to what sort of an eleven would be turned out, but he appeared to be sure of one thing and that was that Yale had lot of good material to work into a first class eleven. But of course, at this time no definite idea can be had of what men are likely to turn up. ~

Fraud Charged In the Voting.

Columbia, August 7.-Charges of
fraud in a popular 'oting contest is the
latest sensation in columbia. The con-
test, which few months ago looked
like an innocent one, has now taken on
more serious proportions and will finally
be decided by the courts.
The prize was piano offered by a
piano manufacturing company for the
most popular lodge or society in Co
lumbia. At first there was little interest
taken in the voting, but later the contest
grew more interesting and finally mar
rowed down to two societies-the Knights
OF Columbia and the Clerks Union,
Each was determined to win and the
voting continued until the opposing
sides had many thousands of votes to
their credit. When the end came the
returns showed that the Knights of Co
lumbia had majority of something
over $4,000. This large majority was a
surprise to the Clerks Union and they at
once started an investigation, claiming
that 100000 votes more than the original
number authorized had been cast. The
Knights denied all charges of fraud and
claimed the piano on the face of the re-
turns. Tuesday the Clerks Union in
Stituted claim and delivery proceedings
and Sheriff Coleman took charge of the
piano, which now rests in his office and
will remain there until the court decides
which of the two organizations is enti-
tied to its possession.

Committee.

The first claimant of the reward
OF $4,000 offered by the State of
Texas to the person who discovered
or devised successful and practical
remedy for eradicating the cotton
boil weevil is George Franklin, a
farmer living near San Marcos, this
State, says an Austin, Texas, dis
patch to the ST. Louis Globe Demo
crat. He submitted his claim to
Governor Lanham last week, and the
remedy will be passed upon by
committee of five farmers whom the
Governor will appoint for that pur-
pose. Mr.. Franklin says that the
weevils were devastating the cotton
on his farm when he began applying
the remedy to the plants four weeks
ago, and that the pests have entirely
disappeared. 1t is liquid prepara-
tion, applied to the plants by spray
ing, at cost of not to exceed 81 an
acre for the season.

Pope Plus X.

Giuseppe Sarto, Patriarch of Venice,
who was last Tuesday elected Pope to
succeed Leo XIII, is sixty-eight years
ofage. He comes of an humble family.
His first parish was Castel- Franco, which
he took charge of when he was twenty
three years of age. He was soon looked
upon as man of unusual virtue, and
bis people held him in high esteem.
Herose gradually in position until he
became cardinal and was appointed
Patriarch of Venice. He is held in high
esteem throughout Italy and is on
familiar terms with the King and Queen.
Because of his kindness of heart and
great charity the people love him. He
was loath to accept tho Office of Pope;
but his fellow cardinals persuaded him
that such was the will of God. The
new Pope has brother who is a mail
carrier at salary of $50 year; but a
most worthy man. According to custom
the elevation of Giuseppe to the papal
throne will make that brother a prince.
Although much surprised at the out
come, the fight having centered princi-
pally about Cardinal Rampolla, the
cardinals generally express themselves
as much pleased with the selection of

On The Up Grade.

Richard Fl. Edmonds periodically
cheers his people at the South with
facts and figures full of promise and
encouragement. He takes the COM
parative statistics of the decades and
shows that "twenty years ago the
South mined 100000 tons of coal
last year it mined 61, 100000 tons, a
gain of 100000 tons. Add this
to last years output and we will
have 100000 tons as the minimum
production of the South 10 years
hence. The gain in iron was from
100000 tons in 1880 to 100000
tons last year, or over 100000 tons
increase, and on this basis 1903 will
see the South making not less than
5,800,00O tons. Cotton spindles,
which advanced from 100000 in
1880 to 100000 last year, will quite
certainly 60 to 14,000,00O to 15,OOO,-
600 in ten years. And 80 down the
whole long line Of Southern activity.
While here and there some one or
two industries may not keep fully
abreast, the general advancement of
the South in the coming years will
exceed that of the last 90"

Fifty Persons Killed by 's,orms in jamaica.

Kingston, Jamaica, August 12.-
The West Indian hurricane struck
the Island of jamaica with its full
force yesterday, infiicting great dam
age. Port Antonio, on the north
coast was completely overwhelmed.
Only six houses are left standing
there. The United Fruit Company's
wharves, Office, hotel and plantations
were utterly demolished. Five of
the company's steamers were driven
ashore, but are lying in easy posi-
tions. Port Maria, another town on
the north coast, also suffered SINH
larly. The coast is strewn with
wreokage of local sailing boats.
The southeastern portion of the
island has been completely denuded
of its crops, the rivers are flooded,
and many men were carried out to
sea and drowned. Considering the
damage to property during the hur-
ricane, the loss of life is compari-
lively small, though the present esti.
mate is that the death rate will reach
fifty. Hundreds of persons were in
jured and there were numerous hair
bredth escapes. The property loss
is estimated at $10,0O0,0O0.
The entire eastern end of the island
has been devastated. Villages have
been wiped out and public buildings
and churches demolished. Thous-
ands of the pesantry, rendered home
less and destitute, are wandering
about seeking food and shelter. The
destruction of the banana plantations
has been complete and the fruit trade
is paralyzed for the next twelve
months. Hundreds of prosperous
fruit growers have been brought to
bankruptcy and ruin.
The western end Of the island,
which, it was at first supposed had
escaped, also suffered considerably.
