others surrendered. The minister believes
that the conflict will have the effect of re-

as significant the fact that the Bulgarian

belonged to r. V. Rusk. The men were
thrown out and injured, and both of the
horses attached to the wagon We're instantly
killed. The wagon was badly damaged.
The other accident happened about 10

of 9th and 1 streets northeast. AT that
point the street is not cut through for
teams. the railroad tracks being on an en-
bankment. Pedestrians get up to the tracks,
which is not protected by safety gates. by

BLESSING OF SUNSHINE.
A Curious Result of the Studies of q
Swiss Professor.

Swiss Professor.
From the New York Sun.
PROFESSOR Lugeon of the University of
Lausanne has been studying the population
OF the valley of the Rhone between Martfg-
ny and the Rhone glacier The statistics
show that the right bank of the river be-
tween these points has population of
$4,000. while only 10000 persons Live along
the left bank
There are two reasons for this difference
in the density of population of the two
banks of the Rhone. One Is that the right
bank is less billy and therefore offers bet
ter natural conditions for the building of
hamlets and towns; but Professor Lugeon
is convinced that a more important infiu-
ence is exerted by the different degrees of
sunshine enjoyed by the two banks.
He has found that along a part of the
river banks which present exactly the same
Topographic conditions the population of
the side which Is most exposed to the sun
has from four to five times as many inhab-
itantS as the other bank, which is in the
shadow of the mountains that ward off
most of the direct rays of the sun. With
one or two exceptions all the villages have
been built on the bank which is most fully
exposed to the suns rays.
This influence of the presence or absence
Of sunlight also manifests itself In the
psychic characteristics and the material
conditions of the population of the two
river banks. On the rlSnt SIDE OF the river
in the sun the population live more at their
ease. are more prosperous and present a
degree of civilization more advanced than
those of the opposite shore.
He calls those who are most favored
with sunlight the solar aristecracy and
says that they contemplate with a certain
dsdain the inferior population who dwell
In the shadow across the river.
The people of the village of Reckingen.
which occupies both banks of the Rhone.
are notably divided into two distinct castles
whose origin, in the last analysis. may be
attributed to the difference Of sunshine to
which the two groups are exposed.

SAM JONES IN A FIGHT.
Has Nstic Encounter With
Man He Offended.

Man He Offended.
The following dispatch is printed in the
Baltimore American:
CARTERSVILLE, Ga, September IA
Rev. Sam Jones, the famous evangelist, was
badly bruised in a personal encounter to-
day with Postmaster Walter Alderman,
whom Mr.. Jones denounced for selling wine
and threatened to have reported to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The difficulty arose over
statements made by Mr.. Jones at his taber-
nacle meeting last night, when he used the
expression dirty dog in remarks said to
refer to Mr.. Alderman.
When they met this morning Mr. Aker-
man mentioned the remark and hit Mr..
Jones in the mouth. The evangelist re-
taliated with a whack in the eye Though
bleeding, Mr.. Jones declared after the at
fair that the only thing hurt about him
was his fist.
During his remarks last night Mr. Jones
said that the people of Gainesville would
prefer a sober decent negro to hand them
out their mail to a dirty dog who was
using his official position to sell wine"
Mr.. Jones' remarks were sensa tional IN
the extreme, and the fight this morning
was not unexpected. This IS not the first
time that the minister has figured in such
ARRAYS. Several years ago the mayor of
q town attempted to cane him and re-
ceived thorough licking.

WITH SALIgYLIC ACID
TO RESUME EATING
AT THE GOVERNMENT TABLE.
No Doubt Expressed as to Sufficient
Number Of Vo1unteers-Dr: Wiley
Expected Here Wednesday.

Dr. Willard D. Bigelow. acting chief OF
the bureau Of chemistry, Department of
Agriculture, in conversation with Star re-
porter this morning said that the chief OF
the bureau. DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, return
ing from his trip abroad, was expected to
arrive in New York city today. and to
be in his office, at the corner of 14th and B
streets southwest, Wednesday morning,
ready to complete the arrangements for the
resumption of experiments IN food adulte-
rations. which will probably be started
shortly after the list Of October. DR.. Bige-
low said further that the table would be
conducted on the same lines as those or
last winter. but that there would be
change in the poison used. This time, at
least for the first few weeks, salicyLc acid
will be tested.
In reply to a question as TO whether any
of the boarders liked the fare well enough
to return. he said that it was too early to
state who would be among the twelve or
more at the table. The assertion that every
body had had enough, he declared, was not
well founded. AS matter of fact, several
Of the former experiments have been
married. and now prefer their wives cook
ing to that of the department cook, or say
they do. which is perfectly natural Others,
stated DR.. Bigelow, have received promo
tons No one, far he knows, has sus-
tanned any i'll from the experiments.
DR.. B1gelow does not believe that Dr.
Wiley will have any trouble in inducing the
desired number of boarders this fail.
1t is rumored that Perry, the civil service
cook. will not preside over the mortars and
beakers again, but that the civil service
commissioners will be called upon to fur
nsh another chef with certificate.
The official report of the experiments con-
Quoted from last November until June by
DR.. Wiley is now in the hands of Secretary
Wilson. but it will probably not be made
public until the entire series of experiments
is completed, since this Is DR.. Wiley'S
wish. as it contains much information that
he is not willing to give to the public at
present.
All of the kitchen furniture and utensils.
the dining room chairs and tables the
snowy linen and the china were packed
away when the summer suspension of the
tests was taken and DR.. Wiley will only
have to unpack them and set them up to be
ready for business once more. The an

be necessary. Great disappointment will be
felt by all connected with the experiments
