Another outrage has been perpe-
trated upon the poor automobilist.
A Mr.. Marble has been fined one dol
lar and sent to jail for a year for
running into and killing careless
driver of delivery wagon. Mr.. Mar
lie cheerfully agreed to pay the dol
lar, but remopstrated against Jail
sentence as setting an extremely bad
precedent. The fact that the victim
drove delivery wagon had beentaken
into account, however, and the judge
felt that he could not further di-
minish the sentence. It is apparent,
as the Chicago Post remarks, that il
chauffeurs learn that for every death
caused by them they must go to jail
for q year, much OF the sport Of tho
automobile win be lost. What's the
use of wealth and $4,000 convey
ance. il the petty laws against care
less driving are to be applied?

twenty-five dollars, and each passen.

The guaranty Of insurance IL not, per-

conveys q pleasing suggestion that
submarine voyages are ceasing to be
experimental and becoming safe.

When women's congresses meet

Encouragement Of
OF : "a1s' husbands. The sub
ject, in fact, possesses distinct lit
erature of its own. Mem. however,
never discuss the management Of
wives. This may be because they
never manage them, Or more likely
it is because, no, two women being
alike, different method is neces-
.sary in each individual case. A
practical system having this object
in view has recently, however, been
recorded in one of our new posses
sions, which, at least, includes the
merit and virtue of novelty. Sugi-
mura, Japanese, living at Waiakea,
in Hawaii, was thoroughly in love
with his wife. He was also lover
of truth. The Sugimura household
was recently rent with internal dis
sessions, growing out Of jealousiesa and
misunderstanding. The husband be-
lieyed that his spouse had told him
untruths. He therefore wrote her a
sweet little note inclosing his little
finger which he had neatly cut off
with meat ak. He told her that
she had been guilty of ten lies; that
he had ten fingers. and would cut one
OF each. day until she promised not
to tell falsehoods any more. The re-
ply Of Mrs. Sugimura is not record
ed. nor the number Of fingers sacri-
feed up to this writing. The Ha-
waiian mails will be watched with
interest. It will be interesting to
know whether Mrs. sugimura sur
rendered.

Rev. Newell Dwight Hills, speaking
the other night at the installation
services for Rev. DR.. Macy. MCGEE.
Waters, successor to Rev. DIR. NJ
Tompkins at. the Congregational
church, Brooklyn, arraigned the
worship of wealth, which he said
seemed to be supplanting in meas-
ure the worship of God, and predict
ed that within 20 years the fight be-
tween materialism and Christianity
would become an acute struggle.
In these days." said DR.. Hills 1--WE
see young men going to college to
fit themselves for business and pro-
LESSONS. The class of yonng men
who years ago went to enter theo-
logical seminaries now tell you they
intend to- become lawyers because
Of the greater emoluments to be
gained. Now and then we hear of q
man stealing railroad and the pub
lie applauds him for his cleverness.
There seems to be spirit of reyi-
sion in this age. There is even a
new version of the Ten Command
ments, of which the chief seems to
be honor the almighty dollar that
You may have yachts and lands and
|sa life of ease and steal everything in
sight. !"
Referring with biting sarcasm to
the bent Of the newly rich to pose
as art connoisseurs, DR.. Hills
said: I'VE see them buying paint
leings and musty old manuscripts
without being able to tell for the
life of them whether one is the
work Of an old master or the other
the genuine production of an old
classical litterateur."
DIR. Hills remarks caused a de-
cided sensation, and the congrega-
ton broke forth in applause. DIR.
Hills words were all the more nn-
expected because Of his stand on the
question Of labor unions, which in a
recent sermon he held to be forms
of tyranny and o dead weight upon
the neck Of Industrial progress,

Cheriot Used By the Ruler Of Esypt
5000 Years Ago Together with
Other valuable RELICS Found
In Large ChAmber.

An investigation of the tomb of
King Thothmes ~, near Thebes, in
which the splendid chariot was
found by Mr.. Davis, an American, has
revealed. many interesting features.
Around the large chamber, in which
there is magnificent granite sar-
cophagus, covered with texts from
the Book Of the Dead, !" are smaller
chambers. The floor Of one OF these
is strewn with mummified loins of
beef, legs Of mutton, and trussed
ducks and geese, offerings made to
the dead king nearly 1000 years ago.
Clay seals bearing the kings name
are attached to the doors Of the
chamber. These indicate that the
Egyptians Of the eighteenth dynasty
to some extent anticipated the in
vention Of printing, the raised por-
tions Of the seals having been
smeared with q blue tint before the
clay was impressed. The walls OF one
chamber are adorned with paintings.
There is also an inscription stat
ing that the tomb was plund by
robbers in the eighth year of Horem-
heb, but was restored as far zas pos
sible by the reigning Pharaoh. It
was doubtless then that the jewelry
buried with Thothmes was stolen.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF COUNTY

OF Washington by the publication In
the New York Sun Of an attack upon
President Roosevelt for his course
against the trusts. Beginning with
the assertion that the President above
all other things was politician, and
was bending every effort to obtain q
nomination, the editorial proceeds to
say that Mr.. Roosevelt had, In his
attacks upon wealth exceeded the
widest threats of populism.
The attack caused the administra-
tion republican politicians Of the caI-
ital to gasp, for they were not on the
inside OF the game and they thought
it meant war on Roosevelt and the
administration from the combined
capital and Wall street interests and
alsolwaEop the republican party after
the nominations next year. They did
not know that it was q part OF the
play by the tariff interests to scare.

tacks on the trusts by his administra-
tiop. Although bis assaults far GA

and have not In the least injured
them, yet the trusts want MIN to let
thenrseverely alone and do nothing
that Will IN any way attract attention
to them whether they are hurt OF
not ID order to do this they are
trying to brighten him and his friends
So far the attacks Of the administra-
ton on the trusts have been confined
to the beef trust and the northern Sc
curities merger. To show that nei-
ther has been effective Of good to the
public it is only necessary to remind
the people that the northern secure
ties merger decision has been 50 modi-
fed that they are still enabled to pay
dividends 10 their stock lders, and
the beef trust, after paying some fines
has advanced the price OF meats from
q to q dollars per 100 pounds and the
public will have to pay the fines In
the end. Whether or not these ''fee-
BILE attacks on the trusts cease, there
Is no disposit ion on the part Of the
Illegal trusts to supports democratic
ticket. The Washington Star, re-
publican organ, gave that snap away
when, In speaking Of this attack OF
the New York Sun on Roosevelt and
the possibility Of the financial In

TREE PLANTING IN ALABAMA
Eighteen Hundred Acres TO be Planted
In Pine, Ohestnut and Oak,

A planting plan has recently been pro-
pared by the bureau Of forestry for l $40
acres OF land In Cullman county, Ala,
owned by Emil Ahlrlchs. and valued Mt
from $L25 to $ per aore. The planting
will be done In several different locali-
ties, but all In Cullman county. Work
will begin as soon as growth ceases next
fall, and will continue through the Win
tor. except In freezing weather. Tho
first seasons work will include the plant
Ing OF loblolly Pine seedlings collected IN
the forest on tract OF 100 acres OF open
woods. Two hundred and eighty acres
will be planted with chestnut and white
and post oak. A seed bed VIII be pre-
pared for tho raising OF lobloly pine Tor
tract OF $40 acres as II Is considered
not advisable to use entirely stock col
lected from the forest.
All this planting Is based on the fact
that while immense quantities OF lobloily
arc being cut In that locality, there Is
little or no reproduction on the land IN
question. due chiefly TO annual fires set
to Improve tho pasture. MIR. Ahlrichs
Will have fire patrol System.
It is purposed also to treat tract OF
GO acres to improve tho natural repro
duction by tho prevention Of fires.
Labor may be obtained at $lo per
month, hence tho work can be done a.
very small cost. 1t Is estimated that
the planting will cost only from 81 70
g per aero.
Loblolly Pine Is to be planted for the
PRODUCTION OF lumber. chestnut for posts
and telegraph poles and oak Tor raliroao
ties.
