The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1903-10-30

Capt Algernon Sartoris. who is no
longer in the army, having resigned his
commission, has stirred up the Cana
dlans by a newspaper article in which
he declares the United States acted
foolishly in resorting to arbitration in
the late boundary dispute; that they
should have sent troops into the dis
puted territory and held it by force,
and that Canada was destined to be-
come part of the United States, either
"by favor or by force" Because of the
fact that the young man is the grand
son of u. S. Grant the Canadians think
his opinion carries great weight and
that it is prejudicial to their prestige.

Turn where you will these days, and
you'll find woman; and she usually
makes her influence felt. Not even so
dry and prosaic matter as cotton
crop statistics escapes her, nor is the
cotton market unmindful of what she
says. Miss Giles, until recently a clerk
in the Department of Agriculture, made
an estimate of the cotton crop two
years ago that was remarkably close
to the actual figures. Last year she
again made an estimate of exceptional
accuracy. These estimates, which
were given wide publicity, attracted at
tention. A few days ago the Liver
pool expert, Buston, estimated the cur
rent crop at 11,25O,OOO bales. on the
strength of which the market dropped
ten points. Yesterday Miss Giles made
public her estimate of the crop 10000
900 bales. and there was at once a
gain in the market of twenty points.
Thus the woman is ten points ahead
of the man.

Cnta Of Ancient Egypt.

BY some persons the popularity Of
the cat In Egypt has been attributed
to the fact that the animal was valu-
able in Kidding the palaces of rats and
mice and also In hunting fowls. There
are several paintings in the British
museum. executed by ancient Egyp-
tian artists. representing Egyptian
sportsmen In boats on the river Nile,
accompanied by large cats, sitting on
their launches In the stern. Other
pictures show the cats swimming with
birds In their mouths after the manner
of retriever dogs. These pictures have
greatly perplexed modern naturalists
because the cat of today has n strong
aversion to water. and 1t is difficult to
reconcile such different traits even aft.
er the lapse of thousands Of years.

THE SPEECH,
Eloauencc That Quellcd n Riot In n
Military Hospital.

In the Memories Of n Hospital Ma
iron" a writer in tn, Atlantic Monthly,
who was head Of q Confederate hos
pital during the war, relates this X
citing incident:
"Our steward, a meek little man,
came to me n day, pale with fright,
and said that the conyalesccnts had
etormed the bakery, taken out the half
cooked bread aud scattered il about
the yard, beaten the baker and threat.
ened to hang the steward. ] hurried
to the scene to throw myself into the
breach before the surgeon should ar.
rive with the guard and arrest the Of.
tenders. | found the new bakery lev
eled 10 the ground and 200 excited
men clamoring for the bread which,
they declared, the steward withheld
from them from DR. stole for
his own benefit.
"'And what do you say OF the ma.
, tronT ! asked, rushing among them.
DO you think that she, through whose
hands the bread must pass, is a party
to the thefti Do you accuse me, who
have nursed you through months Of
illness. making you chicken soup when
we had not seen a chicken for n year,
forcing an old breastbone to do duty
for months for those unreasonable fel.
lows who wanted to see the chicken;
me. who gave you n greater variety In
peas than was ever known before and
who lately stewed your rats when the
cook refused 10 touch them? And this
is your gratitude! You tear down my
%bakehouse, beat my baker and want
to hang my steward"
ITO my surprise the angry men
laughed and cheered. A few days later
there came to me a committee Of
two sheepish looking fellows to ask
my acceptance of a ring. Each Of the
poor men had subscribed something
from his pittance. and their old enc
my, the steward, had been sent to town
to make the purchase. Accompanying
the ring was n bit of dirty paper on
which was written, For our chief ma
iron, in honor Of her brave conduct on
the day of the bread riot"
