We were unsbIe 10 learn when
the Sampson county cases would be
heard before the committee ana
therefore did not have . correspon-
dent present We take the follow
Ing from Saturdays News and OBJ
server.
Again the Committe on Count
les, Cities and Towns discussed
Sampson county and its Affairs.
Two OF the bills Concerning that
county had previously been reported
favorAbly. these being one to allow
the residue OF . special tax collected
TO pay for building q jail TO be ap-
piled to county purp4ses. and the
levy Of special tax not to exceed
9 l-3 cents on the 800 valuation.
25 cents on the poll, for paying ex-
penses Of . smallpox epidemic and
the support Of the poor.
Mr.. III. E. Faison. Of Clinton. de-
sired to be heard in opposition to
the proposed bills, aud hence the re-
opening Of the Sampson affairs. Mr..
John Kerr, of Clinton, was present
to urge that the bills stand, and
Major George E. Butler, county at.
torney Of Sampson, was also pres.
emit to speak for the bills.
Incidentally it was learned dur
ing the meeting that the favorable
report on the bills changing the
county government of Sampson
would not be pressed, but that a re-
reference of the bills will probsb ,
be asked for and an unfavorable re-
port will be made on them. This
will leave the county government
Of Sampson as its voters decreed and
this, in part, explains the desire for
a change in the two bills regarding
financial affairs.
Mr.. Faison first addressed the
committee. He told of the act pas
sed in 1898 providing for levying a
tax to build a Jail. and how this tax
had increased from 2 cents on the
500 in 1898 to / 3 cents in 1901
Major Butler explained the finan
cial condition of the county. and in
speaking of the increase Of the tai
rate on the Jail bonds said that the
small rate was made years before
the bonds were due, but that wher
these began to fall due each veal
there had to be an incaease. These
bonds, not due till 1911, had beer
paid off, as well as some others mo-
due till 1918, He said that for gen
eral expenses the county was ir
debt, because of bridges swept away
and epidemics, and that while ther'
was money on hand it was a residu,
for special purposes, and it was only
desired to use this for general pur
poses ~
The committee heard all sides
and then voted to report the bill t,
use the residue Of the Jail bonds
about 81, 500 for general county ex
penses and to amend the bill pro
viding for levy for smallpox cpl
demic, 80 that the taxes could only
be used for that purpose"

Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feed:
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause Of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems to hnt
it and set the matter right.

PETER TAKES OAIH
Servian King Pledges His
Best Efforts
TO SUSTAIN INDEPENDENCE
Seems TO Gain Confidence
and Get Firm Grasp

| Belgrade, June 25.-Amidst great enthus-
iasm King Peter this morning took the
oath before the lower house Subsequent
/ ~ he held review OF the troops The
oath taken by the king was in the fol-
lowin gternds:
Il, Peter Karageorgevitch. on ascending
the throne OF the kingdom of Servia and
assuming the royal prerogative. swear by
the Almighty God and by all that is holi-
est and dearest to me upo nthis earth.
that 1 viii protect the independence Of
Servia and the unity of its government;
that l will maintain inviolate the con-
stitution Of the country; that l will live
in conformity with the constitution and
the laws and that in all undertakings and
dealings l Will keep the welfare OF my
people before my eyes. Taking this. my
oath. solemnly before God and the people,
call as witness the Lord God. TO Whom
shall give account at the Judgment
seat. So help me God. Amen"
1t was remarked on all sides that the
king seemed hourly to assume more
a firmer grasp on affairs. His demeanor
when he took the oath and the EXPIRES
sion on his face showed masterfulness
and his intention to be king in fact as
we'll as in name, ruling unfinchingly as
well as justly.
The demonstrations yesterday evening
apparently convinced him that he is not
merely the election of the military or Of
a civilian faction. but that he had the
people at his back.
The proceedings today were marked By
solemnity. The old parliament building.
q bare, barn-like structure. with fiimsy
decorations. was crowded with represent
tatives. officials clergy and civilian spec
tators who loudly cried Long live the
king as he appeared. The king glanced
sharply, almost sternly at the deputies,
some Of whom were in peasants garb
while others were dressed in the height
Of western fashion.
Taking a seat in front Of the throne.
over which his own portrait hung, the
king awaited with calm assurance for
the ceremony to begin.
Lighted candles had been placed on a
table in front of the king on which table
also rested Bible the text of the oath.

ropolitan proceeded with the religious
ceremony the responses to which We're

had finished. his majesty advanced amid

and signed his name TO the document

again kissed the Bible and the cross prof

WIND TWISTED TREES.

Every one has At some time or other
observed the pronounced effect which
wind has on trees growing in some quar-
tiers. This is particularly noticeable
along the shore where tree growths will
be seen twisted and leaning TO a re-
marka bic degree. This matter has been
recently given some systematic study by
Prof J. Fruh, who has observed this
wind action in all parts Of the world.
The manner in which it shows itself by
the appearance Of certain characters
tic forms Professor Fruh has classified
as follows:
I'D Trunk, vertical. but without
branches on the side facing the wind.
''(2) Top of trunk inclined in the direc-
ton Of The dominant wind. Branch
asymmetric; more developed where shell
tered from the wind.
"(3) Whole tree inclined. When grow
Ing in masses. these trees or shrubs are
almost lying on one another. Their di-
mansions decrease as we go toward the
side Of the forest that is first struck
by the wind
20 Trung and branches may be in
clned in different directions In this
case the inclination of the trunk may
have been due to strong but temper
airy winds, while that of the foliage
keeps the direction of the dominant wind.
These deformations are especially fire.
quent in countries near the sea or in
fiat regions. In equatorial regions where
violent cyclones often rage. the influence
OF the dominant winds can not always
be noted. for their effects are often hid
den by that of the tornadoes."
Among the trees that are most sensi-
tive to the action Of the wind the fol-
lowing are noted by the author: The
cherry, the plum the walnut the black
poplar. the service tree the ash, and
certain varities Of pine. other pines.
especially the mountain varieties. and
also certain frs. are very resistant to
wind and are therefore recommended by
the author for the reforestati0n of re-
gions exposed to gales-Detroit Free
