DROPPED THEIR INSURANCE.
Steamship Lines Cancelled Policies
From Jan. 1.

London, Jan. 2.-Considerable inter-
est was created at Lloyd's to-day by
the announcement that three lines be-
longing to the International Mercan-
tile Marine Company-the Leyland,
Dominion and White Star-had can
celled their insurance from Jan. 1. 1t
was presumed to be the intention of
the International Mercantile Marine
Company to include its other lines in
this arrangement.
While the removal of such a large
amount of business from the market
at one sweep aroused much comment,
the brokers who were effecting the in
surance of the line mentioned receiv-
ed the news with equanimity, owing
to tho, fact that for more than year
past all these contracts Melted loss
to the underwriters.
There was much speculation as to
how the International Mercantile Ma
rine Company intends to meet future
losses. The general opinion is that 1t
will be done through establishment of
an emergency fund. 1t was pointed
out, however, that the Pensinsular
and Oriental Steam Navigation Com
pany has for a number of years neg
lected the insurance factor entirely
paying its losses out of the current
revenue

HAD ENOUGH TO EAT.
Mrs. Tingiey Said Infants Were Fed
Every Half Hour.

Mrs. Tingiey Said Infants Were Fed
Every Half Hour.
San Diego, Cal, Jan. Mrs. Cath
crime A. Tingley was placed upon the
stand to-day as her own witness in
rebuttal of the testimony of the de-
PENDANT in the trial of her action for
libel against the Los Angeles Times.
All of the principal charges made
against her in the Point Iona insti-
tuition, of which she is the official
head, were read to her and she denied
them seriatim. She was a cool, delib-
crate witness, and in answering the
many details that were evolved from
the questions took must of the after
noon. She had a ready explanation
for such of the charges and differences
as she did not repudiate.
She stated with much emphasis that
she had not withheld food from chill
dren, as was related in the deposition
of DR.. Anderson of San Francisco,
but on the other hand it was one of
her theories of child-rearing that the
infants should be fed every half hour.
She fatty denied what Louis Fitch
of Hartford, Conn.,. had testified to in
alleging that she had stated that life
upon Point Iona would evolve a state
which would make the marriage rela-
ton unnecessary.
An incident of the day was the re-
fusal of the trial Judge to permit the
jury to go to Point Iona to view the
institution, although it was strongly
urged by Mrs Tingley's counsel.

The prisoners were brought to the

junction with the Norristown counter

HOW BIRDS CATCH FISH.
Differing Methods of Different spe-
cies-Birds That Rob other Birds.


From the Hartford Times.
Very many speciss of birds feed en-
tirely or almost entirely on fish, and
among them they have as many ways
of capturing their prey as human fish
ermen have. Some, with more patience
than most men possess, stand silently
on the shores, waiting for the fish to
approach them; others nut out to sea,
and capture their prey in deep water.
OF these feathered fishermen none is
more familiar than the belted king
fisher. which may be seen in the East
ern states at almost any time between
March and December. His favorite
fishing grounds are wooded streams
and ponds, though he may often be
seen in the vicinity of salt water. The
kinghsher spends much of his time
watching for fish from some favorite
perch, such as a stake in the river or
an overhanging branch. From such a
point he makes short journeys out over
the water, sometimes returning at
once, at other times flying to some
other nearby perch. 1t is while on
these little trips that he does his fish
ing. AS he catches sight of fish near
the surface of the water. he hangs fiut-
tering for a moment above 1t, and then
pitches down into the river or lake,
often disappearing from view in a jet
of flying spray. II successful, he soon
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1903-01-03

arises with the struggling fish held
safe in his stout two-inch bill, shakes
the water from his plumage, and rat
| Ting proudly, fleis to some convenient
| place to eat his prey.
Somewhat similar are the methods of
the osprey. AS he swings in wide cir
cles through the clouds, his wonderful
eye searches the water for some sign
which may betray the presence Of a
fish. AS he receives the sign he stops
sailing, and with Tapping wings he
steadies himself for a plunge. Then
downward he speeds, in meteoric flight
striking the water with such force that
fountain of spray shoots upward
from the place where he disappears.
For moment he is lost, then up he
rises In labored flight, lifting a shining
captive, which he grapples in his eight
black talons. and which he bears away
to some dead tree, where he tears 1t To
pieces with his hooked bill.
Quite different are the fishing meth
DDS adopted by the herons. With
heads drawn in between their should
ers, and often upon one leg, like
statues they stand on the bank of a
pond or stream, waiting for the fish to
come within striking distance of their
spearlike bills AT other times they
wade cautiously out into the water,
lifting and placing their feet with ex-
traordinary care, lest they alarm the
fish they are approaching. When near
enough the long neck shoots out, and
1t is suddenly withdrawn, and behold,
the successful heron has a fish. If it
is a small one, he gives 1t a shake, and
swallows It head first; If large one.
he may have to pound IL little on the
bank, to make it more willing to be
swallowed quietly. He will then re-
sumo fishing as patiently as before.
Different again Is the method of the
white pelican, who catches his prey
while swimming. A flock OF pelicans
will surround a school of scIall fish,
and by heating the water with their
long wings drive their victims toward
the shore. As they proceed each psIi-
can is busy scOoping up the fish into
the big pouch, with which his lower
mandible Is provided. After a suifi-
cient number have been "netted' the
birds go ashore for fish dinner.
Jaegers and skuas are sea pirates,
and obtain their fish by robbing the
gulls and terms. When one of the lat
ter birds has captured a fish one of
these pirates will pursue him and
force him to disgorge his prey. This
form of piracy is practiced by many
other fish-eating birds, most of which
are skillful enough to catch the dis
gorged plumber in mid-air.
Gulls obtain their fish by taking It
neatly from the surface of the water:
terms plunge into the rea, remaining
out ot sight for several seconds be-
fore Arising with their prey.
The skinner has still another meth
cd. He flies rapidly along close to the
water with his knifelike lower mandi-
BILE carried JUST beneath the surface.
ready to catch up any prey which may
cross his path. Gamers alternately
fly and sail above the water, and Sc
cure their fish by dropping from the

AN AMERICAN ARBITRATOR.
Is Preferred by the President of
Venezuela.

Washington, Jan. 1.-The condition
which President Castro attached to
his response to the allies arbitration
proposal was in the nature of an al
tentative proposition.
Almost from the beginning show
ing an aversion to The Hague tribu-
nal, President Castro, while accepting
the principle of arbitration, asked that
the case be tried by one of the Amer
lean republics. AS President Roose-
Welt has already declined to act in the
capacity of arbitrator, and as some of
the reasons which inspired him in his
declination would apply with equal
force to the chief executive of any
other American state than the United
States, he was obliged to withhold any
Endorsement of this proposition of
President Castro.
Therefore it may be dismissed from
the field of posi- bilities, and, unless
Castro is Unexpectedly insistent upon
his own plan, the original proposition
of reference to The Hague tribunal
will carry.

Col. ike" Hill. Democratic whip Of

gems of wisdom which fell from the

second-story work on dark nights. The
difference between the man who takes

IS A BUSINESS PROPOSITION
The Principal Asset of the Success

The Principal Asset OF the Success
full Business Man.
The head of the largest meat pack
ing industry in the world, for many
years, prior to his death, never trav-
eled without his physician; everywhere
he was accompanied by his medical
adviser; he hired him for his exclusive
attendance by the year, and considered
the large salary paid for such service
as part of his business investment. He
did not do this because he was a hypo-
chondriac, in constant fear of illness
and death: on the contrary, he was an
exceptionally robust man, but he real
lied that the principal asset in his
enormous business was his own per-
sonal health, and to keep physically
and mentally we'll and strong was a
business proposition, pure and simple.
1t is so with every business man and
woman. A slight cold in the head and
throat mav pass off in a few days, or
it may develop into Pneumonia, Chron-
ic Catarrh. or an irritating throat
trouble; in any event its departure
should be FASTENED by some simple
antiseptic preparation like Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, which are dissolved in
the mouth and thus reach and destroy
the germs of Catarrh, Pneumonia, Con-
sumption, before they have chance
to propagate and thrive in the inflamed
mucous membranes of the nose and
throat.
To burden the stomach with drugs
and stimulants is a foolish and often
dangerous way to combat a cold, be-
cause stimulants are always followed
by corresponding depression and where
there is any tendency to Pneumonia
increases the danger by increasing the
hearts action.
A popular school teacher in Pitts
burg writes: "I am a walking adver-
tisement for Stuart's Catarrh Tablets;
the change from a crowded steam heat
ed school room to a raw, chill out doors
kept me nursing colds in the head and
throat from fall to spring. Throat ir-
ritation made it difficult for me to
read or speak and conduct my classes.
NY druggist with whom spent large
part of my salary for cough lozengers

to try Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, and

VaIdosta, Ga, Jan. 2-The stock
holders of the Strickland Cot
ton Mills held their annual
meeting last night. The directors
declared a dividend of per cent. and
ordered 8 per cent. of it paid at once.
The profits of the mill during the
past year were about $4,000. The
mill is only a little over 2 years old.
and, considering the DISADVANTAGES
which all new enterprises have to
meet, the showing is regarded as good
All of the banks and many of the
other enterprises here turned loose

from $4,000 to to $4,000 having been
paid out in profits alone. There are
party corporations here and all of
them declare dividends annually.
1t is announced that the Atlantic
Coast Line will begin work in a few
days on large additions to the depot
here. The structure was built two
years ago to take the place of one
hardly third it's size, but the grow
ing business OF the road has made it
far too small and additions will be
made at once.
News is received here of the death
of Lewis Johnson, white man. who
was shot near Pinetta. just over the
Florida line. by a man named Becton
a day or so ago. The men were at a
turkey-shooting and a dispute arose
between them. Becton drew his pistol
and Johnson struck him on the arm
to knock the weapon down. The pistol
was fired, the ball striking Johnson in
the leg, producing a wound which nee
essitated amputation. Blood poison set
in a little later and Johnson died. Bee
ton was arrested and carried to Jail
at Madison. Fla. The dead man is a
son-in-law of James Bass. a we'll
known farmer of this county.
Mr.. A G. Holt, of this city, is wor-
ried a good deal over the report from
Tallahassee, in regard to the "A. G..
Holt" who called on the Governor there
and created some excitement. 1t was
thought that the man was a son of
Mr.. Holt here and that he escaped
from the state sanitarium. The tele-
gram in the Morning News stating
that the Tallahassee man was a Holt
from New Orleans mystifieS matters,
especially since Mr.. Holt here received
a letter from his son after his escape
from the sanitarium stating that he
was on his way to New Orleans. 1t is
probable, however, that they are differ
ent men under the same name, as the
descriptions do not fit the Holt who
once resided here, and who escaped
from the asylum.

the upper railroad bridge into the

some forty feet, and it is presumed

but one person. John F. c. Newsome.
a carpenter of Phenix City, who was
crossing from Columbus to his home
walking along the footway set apart
for passengers on the railroad bridge
until the new passenger bridge is com
pleted. He noticed some one approach
ing from the Alabama side, along the
south side of the bride. They would
have met about the middle of the
bridge.
Just about the time they were to
meet Newsome heard a loud splash
The man was nowhere in sight. and
the inevitable conclusion was that he
must have jumped from the bridge,
Newsome looked into the water. but
could see no sign of him. He could
not tell whether he was a white man
or a negro,
