Amidst the odors that have been
stirred up by the investigation of the
Burdick- Pencil scandal in Buffalo
there is just one of fragrance. The ex-
ception has reference to Mrs. Pennell,
who, voluntarily, or not, died with the
husband that was untrue to her.
Throughout the whole matter, as
shown by her letters, Mrs. Pennell
acted the part of a peacemaker. en-
deavoring in every manner possible to
save the regulations of her husband
and Mrs. Burdick. Her own needed no
defense. Her self-sacrifice for the man
whose name she bore was tribute
worthy of highest gratitude and most
sincere faithfulness: but it seems her
husband was Incapable of rendering
these to her

1t seems inevitable that a big strike
in the cotton mills of New England
VIII go into effect on Monday. At
Lowell a strike has been ordered, un-
less the employers in the meantime
grant an increase in wages amounting
to 10 per cent. There is no indication
that the demand will be complied with.
Twenty thousand employees in the one
city of Lowell will be affected if the
strike order is obeyed, and it is proba-
BILE that the difficulty will extend to
other manufacturing cities, such as
Fan River. This is regarded as a bear
factor IN the cotton market How far
reaching its influence will be cannot
he foretold. A prolonged strike might
have the effect of depressing prices;
but it could hardly hurt producers.
There is very little cotton in the hands
of farmers at this season of the year.
What is this Chamber of Com
merce?" asked one citizen of another
on the street yesterday. Why" was
the reply, sit is just a great, big push
club" And that describes it in a
terse sentence that can be understood
Immediately. It's purpose is to push"
for Savannah every time and all the
time. Men with push" are members
of it, and more of the same sort are
wanted. Push" means energy and
enterprise; it means devotion and en-
thusiam: it means faith and works; 1t
means success. Those who are men,
bers of the Chamber of Commerce are
in a position to demonstrate their
public spirit and civic pride. Savan-
nah has needed a Push Club. Are you
in the push?

CLouDBURsT IN FLORIDA.
The rain which had been falling in

The ram wnIcn nad Deen hiliilS lh-
cessantly since Tuesday at Jacksonville,
Fla, assumed yesterday morning almost
the proportions of a cloudburst, and
when the citizens prepared to leave for
their places of business many Of them
found their homes completely surround
ed by water. Many we're driven from
their residences or forced to go to upper
stories by the water that in some cases
reached the level of the frst-story win
dows. In all as much as one square
mile of Jacksonville was under water.
Fully half-mile of Bay street, the
principal thoroughfare of the city, was
under water, and much damage was
done to stocks of goods. On this street
a mule hitched to a wagon got beyond
its depth and was drowned, and the
driver, attempting to cut it from the
vehicle, nearly lost his life. Skifs and
later in the day naptha launch were
plying on Bay street removing people
from their submerged homes. The
water was two feet deep in the waiting
room of the Union depot, and every
railroad track entering the city was
under water. One train each over the
East Coast Line and Atlantic Coast Line
entered into Jacksonville yesterday
morning, and one each over these twoi
roads and the Seaboard Air Line de-
parted last night.
The damage to the railroads in ard
near the city is considerable, but it is
believed that trains will make their reg
ular schedules today. The rain in Its
intensity seemed to be local, and the
railroads are not damaged except in and
near the city. The city was in total
darkness last night. The water was a
foot deep in the heelectric-light pOwerhouse
and stopped the dynamo. 1t will take
probably $50, 600 to put the streets and
bridges in repair. The railroads suffer
ed losses probably amounting to so, 600,
The losses of individuals cannot be accu-
rately estimated. Many bridges in the
county were washed away. The total
loss will probably not be less than
$400, 600. In addition to this, it is
feared that Bridge street viaduct, which
cost $3.50, 900, has been made dangerous
by the food. Five houses were over
turned or demolished near the banks of
Hogan's creek, in the negro part of the
town. They were all small. The
foundations of many others in the same
locality were undermined, and they were
rendered uninhabitable. The total
nfall for the "A hours ended at 8 a.
amounted to 8. Al inches.

persons were arrested, an energetic Off
cial having been sent from Odessa to
deal with the situation. The apathy of
the local authorities during the two days
of rapine and murder appears to have
been fully established. The report pub
lished in the United States that a mas
sacre of Jews similar to the one which
took place recently at Kishenef, capital
of Bessarabia, had occurred at Tirospol,
seven miles from KishenefI, is officially
denied and is universally discredited.

PIrrsBURG MURDER MYsrERY.-Th

PITrsBURG MURDER MYSTERY. The
nding of the body of an unknown man
floating in the Monongahela river at
Pittsburg yesterday morning will proba-
bly, develop amurder mystery. A hand
kerchief had been forced into the mans
mouth and there were several wounds on
the back of the head, which seems to
have been inflicted by blunt instrument.
The body is that of man about go years
old, we'll dressed, and has the appearance
of being above the class of people that
usually frequent the waterfront. There
was nothing on the person that would in
any way lead to identification. The body
had been in the water not more than II
hours. The face indicated that it had
been dragged along the ground, as it was
completely covered with mud, and the
skin in many places was broken. The
police and detectives are of the opinion
that the body was thrown in the river
near the point where it was found. The
officers thinks that the man was assaulted
and robbed on some of the streets near
where the body was found, and that after
the robbery had been committed it was
discovered by the highwaymen that their
victim was much worse hurt than was at
first thought. They then stuffed the gag
into his mouth and carried the man to
the river and threw him into the water.

CoRRoBoRATIoY OF BIBLE History.
That the Bible is history and not fiction
was the deduction made in Philadelphia
Tuesday night by Rev. A. 7. Clay, Ph.
D.. of the University Of Pennsylvania,
in lecture on Recent Biblical Dis
coveries at Nippur." He spoke in St.
Marks Evangelical Church. The speak
er has been associated with Professor
Herman V. Hilprecht in the decipher-
ing of the inscriptions found in Nippur.
Both men are Lutherans. Writings
from kings of Palestine who are named
in the Bible were found in the buried
city. These were inscribed upon tablets
of clay. They were translated by the
lecturer, and stereoscopic illustrations Of
them were shown. A large number Of
other pictures were shown of the life that
passed out thousands of years before the
beginning of the Christian era.

T.sI1HEN Miss Rose Owens, who
WI has a responsible position in
w the Governm ent service at
Washington, D. c., decided to
try Wine Of Cardui, she made wise
choice. Over a million women have
been relieved of female weakness by this
same Wine of Cardui. II is not a
strong medicine but may be taken every
day in the year by any woman with
benefit. 1t does not force results, but
corrects arrangements of the menstrual
organs. 1t strengthens the nervous
system, gives tone to the bodily func,,
tions, acts directly on the genital
organs, and is the finest tonic for wo-
men known to the science Of medicine.
