BIBLE WITH A CURSE
Curious Relic in the Possession Of a
Kansas City Woman.

Bible that bears with il q curse Is
the curious relic owned by Mrs. L. r.
Malott, who lives at 800 West Twelfth
street 1t is a little book, perhaps
three by six inches in size, and bound
in the queer brown leather stamped
in gold that is reminiscent of before
the war. That is exactly what the
little old Bible is, relic of before the
war, and bearing in it's time-stained
pages the record Of a pitiful bit of war
time tragedy.
This is the inscription on the first
blank page, the inscription that has
called forth the vituperation that fol-
lows it:
This Bible was taken from a fine
mansion belonging to a widow lady in
Orangeburg district. South Carolina, on
Monday, Feb. 10. 1865, the time that
General Sherman marched through
that district. A little girl begged me
with tears in her eyes not to take it,
as it was the last family relic of a de-
ceased aunt who had died in the insane
asylum. at Columbia. the capital of
South Carolina. James l.. Brown, Co.
D, 47th o. V. l.. End Brigade, 2nd Div,
18th Army Corps. l carried this Bible
in my knapsack over fifteen hundred
miles"
That is as much as is known of the
exploits of the redoubtable James L.
Brown, but the opinions of the men
into whose hands the little book has
FALLEN occupy several more pages.
Here is what one man says:
The first principles of a true soldier
would shrink from even the thought OF
such an act. and a gentleman, however
hardened by the viscissitudes of war,
would frown upon the deed and the
man that is so guilty of a heartless
act and then parades it for the public
eye. A Man"
Another person into whose hands the
book has come is still more severe in
his condemnation of the soldier.
You inhuman wretch. il YOU do not
seek to restore this book to its proper
owners the grass should wither under
your feet. the woods deny you shelter,
the sun its light and heaven its God.
1t should prove a serpent in your
bosom. hell from which you could
never be SEPARATED"
Nothing is known of the book until ii
came into the possession of the late
Mrs. r. w. Hilliker. of Kansas City.
Kas. She was formerly Mrs. Frank
arnum, and many years ago kept the
Barnum, and many years ago kept the
streets. She found the little old book
in trunk that was left behind in pay
ment of board bill. but never knew
anything further of it's history. At
Mrs. Hilliker's death the book was Civ
en- to Mrs. Malott. who is a Daughter
OF the Confederacy, and deeply inter-
ested In all relics and "reminiscences
OF the war, with the expressed hope
that II might in some way find its orig
mai owner or her descendants The
only clue that the book contains as to
the name OF the family from whom it
was stolen is on the last blank page
where is written in a delicate feminine
hand, in ink fast following, Ann NJ.

500. 900. 900 FOR CANDY.
Annual Cost to the Nation of the Love
of Americans for Sweets.

Candy and confectionery to the
amount of 500, 000, 900 are sold in the
American home market every year and
to this total of manufacture New York
contributes $2O,OO0,O 900, or one-fifth.
Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and Hi
nois are the three other states which
contribute largely to the total, which
is constantly Increasing for three rea-
sons.
These are the lower price Of sugar
and syrup. the superior excellence of
American manufacture which has
made this country independent of for
eign imports in this line, and the ma
tIonal taste for sugar and for all art
icles of manufacture into which sugar
enters as the chief ingredient.
The whole foreign Importation of
confectionery to this country, which
was formerly a considerable trade, was
less than $4,000 last year, and the
home consumption has increased cor
respondingly.
1t is a well-known fact that sugar
in the form of candy or sweets is a
substitute for alcohol. All abstainers
from the use of alcohol in any form
are candy-eaters, as vegetarians al
most universally are as well. The man
who ceases to drink develops an un-
common fondness for candy.
The candy-eater who develops a par

which contains much saccharine mat
ter. is seen to diminish his purchases
OF candy. 1t is in temperance localities
that the largest amount of candy is
eaten. and the largest patrons of candy
stores everywhere are. OF course, wo-
men-and especially young women and
children.
The candy making interests of the
United States. now centering in and
about New York. where there are
nearly 900 candy-making establish
ments, shows steady and constant in
crease. and it is a noticeable fact that
in localities in which foreign-b born res
idents are numerous there is less cam
dy eaten than in those neighborhoods
which are inhabited by those of Ameri-
can nativity.
AS candy-eaters and water-drinkers,
Americans stand first.

acreage next Saturday night will be
nearer 100000 than any other round
number figure.
One of the straws that show the Gi
rection of the wind is the following
telegram received here yesterday from
Mr. Heard by John r. Norton. It's
contents were made public and before
night ii mad become the sensational
feature of the day in respect of the
storage campaign. The telegram reads:
Satisfactory conference with Secre-
tary Hitchcock. Confident reservoir is
assured. Return home next Saturday
with definite plans to stop friction and
i'll will"
While this message might be vari-
ously construed. in view of The Re-
publican's Washington special regard
ing Mr.. Heard's visit and the state
ment that the department refused to
alter the plans now being carried out
the most natural construction is that
Mr. Heard has been convinced that
neither he nor anybody else can gam
anything by further opposing the en-
terprise and will with good Judgment
and good feeling sign up and place
themselves in position TO receive the
benefits of storage.
Meantime the getting in of the sInali
land holders continues in a most graf
fying way. AS heretofore mentioned
the great effort now is not so much 10

area thus making it solid Tor lrrlea-

mated now with the many small hold-

THE LATEST PHASE
Reservoir Enterprise From a Satur-
day Night Point Of View.

And now the acreage is $4,000. That
is pretty good but not quite so good as
Mr.. Fowler hoped for last night. He
had counted in the night before. some
of the Mesa lands that he knew were
signed though the contracts had not
been sent to him, IN order To get the
$50, 900 acres as quickly as possible
which makes yesterdays business III
the office appear really smaller than II
was. However, the actual acreage ex-
ceeds the mark set for Saturday night
by 5000 acres and there is more IN
process.
Mesa canvassers yesterday reported
A. 800 acres which is, of course, ircludeo
in the $4,000 and they sent along the
good word that they hoped TO be able
to grind out 5000 acres per day all next
week. Lately the aigning in the once
has averaged nearly 5000 acres per
day. But if the office only signs half
that amount the coming week and
Mesa but half reaches her expectations
next Saturday night will see at least
10 COO acres on the roll.
And this is not all. AS the days go
by indications grow stronger that the
Tempe canal people will eventually
come in. If they come this week the
