ON winning a Woman.

ct see," said the Cigar Store Man.
"that some Cupid expert has doped
out thirteen ways to win a woman"
You can write your ticket on bet
that his wife proposed to him." re-
piled The Man Higher Up, according
to the Baltimore Herald. THE men
who write letters to the papers tell
ing how to win woman are in a
class with the bachelor girls who dope
out advice to mothers on how to take
care of the babies. Theoretical worn-
an-winners live in bachelor apart
ments and confine their underwear
with safety pins.
There are 25,O0O,000 ways to win a
woman in the United States. This
is statement based upon the census
reports of 1900, showing that there
were close to 25,000,00O spinsters and
widows at large. Each woman has
her own way of being won. There
is no need of trying to frame up
system. The female who wants to
be won picks out the man she wants
to win her and teaches him how. He
don't know he is being taught, and
when he finally gets her promise to
commit matrimony with him he
throws bouquets at himself for a wise
guy.
THE best way to win a woman is
to go after her. If she thinks you as
say to her plans and specifications for
a husband she will have you buffaloed
from the start. If she doesn't think
so she will put you in the shine class
so suddenly that it will take you
couple of weeks to eliminate yourself
from the jar.
"A man never knows when he has
a woman won. She gives him all
kinds of cues, but generally she has
to bring him around like mule drivers
do with their beloved pets-with a
smash over the head. The amorous
bachelor who goes looking for a wife
according to rules will never enjoy the
pleasure of having any kids clap hands
and call him papa"
81 should think that kindness and
courtesy would be good foundation
to build set of rules on" ventured
the Cigar Store Man.
Fine" agreed The Man Higher Up.
''Your foundation is all to the good,
but you may as we'll shut your eyes
and throw the material in when you
come to put up the rest of the struc-
lure"

The Savannah morning news., 1904-09-23

We were told by the Atlanta papers
Freight Bureau that Circular 301,
which discriminates outrageously
against Savannah, was only the first
step taken by the commission in the
adjustment of rates, and that there
was no intention to discriminate against
Savannah or any other city. Now we
have Circular 302, in which rates on
syrup from South Georgia points to
Atlanta and Columbus are reduced. If
what is stated in our Atlanta dis
patches is correct, this reduction in the
syrup rates is a discrimination against
Savannah. The present rate from the
syrup section in South Georgia to At
lanta is about 25 cents on the 100
pounds, and from the same section to
Savannah about II cents. The rate to
Atlanta has been reduced to II cents,
but no reduction has been made in
the rate to Savannah. Why no reduce
ton in the rate to Savannah? Is it
the purpose of the commission to give
Atlanta the same rate that Savannah
has, although the distance to Atlanta
is about twice that to Savannah? 1t
certainly looks that way.
1t may be said that it is the pur-
pose of the commission to make a re-
duction in the rate to Savannah later
on, but why not make it now? Why
make it for Atlanta and Columbus and
not for other cities of the state. 1t is
difficult to understand why Atlanta
should be singled out for all of these
reductions, if the entire reduction move
ment isn't in the interest of Atlanta.
AS we have already stated, we have
no objection to Atlanta getting what
reductions she can, but we do object
to any action by the commission that
discriminates against Savannah.
We have no doubt that when the
present rates were made there was an
effort to so adjust them that all the
cities of the state would be on an equal
footing. If that were not the case
there would have been outcries by those
affected by the rates unfavorably long
before this. We take it, therefore, that
every reduction that is now made in
favor of Atlanta and not given to the
other cities of the state is a discrimi-
nation against them. 1t is certain that
the reductions that have thus far been
made are in favor of Atlanta. Nothing
has been done for the other cities, and
unless we are mistaken they are en-
titled to the same reductions that have
been given to Atlanta.
But Atlanta says that what she
wants is a reduction of rates from the
ports. The rate now on first-class
freight is 50 cents on the 100. She
wants a rate of so cents. And her
newspapers say that this wouldn't be
unjust to Savannah. Why wouldn't
it? When the rates were made it was
considered that 50 cents from the ports
to Atlanta was fair rate. If it was
fair rate then it is fair rate now.
What is Savannah to get to offset
it? Is she to be given rates based up
on a so cents rate to Atlanta to all
points in the state? That is a ques-
ton the commission ought to answer
at once, If it is it's purpose to reduce
the Atlanta rate from the ports.
This rate matter is one in which Sa-
vannah is vitality interested and no
doubt the Chamber of Commerce will
take it up just as soon as it conven-
iently can.

Acoustics Were mighty Wrong.

Ex-Gov. Crane of Massachusetts, re-
lated this convention story to cou-
pie of friends not long ago, says the
Denver Times. The story was told to
him, he said. by an acquaintance who
was in St. Louis at the time of the
Democratic National Convention there:
i'The incident in the story" said the
Governor, occurred at a Democratic
meeting for workingmen in a small
hall some distance from where the
Democratic Convention was being held.
The story as 1t was told to me went,
as nearly as 1 can repeat it, like this:
Fellow citizens, said the orator of
the meeting passionately, as he
brought his fist down with a bang on
the table, what, ask, are the Repub-
licans bringing our country to? And
echo answers, "What?"'
Excuse me, sir interposed a man
in the audience Che must have been a
good Republican,, rising to his feet,
did 1 understand your question to be:
what are the Republicans bringing
our country to?"'
Yes. sir
"'And you say. echo answers
'what?'"'
eyes. sir
"'Then there's something mighty
wrong with the acoustics of this build
ing said the man in the audience, as
he sat down.

DOG FOUND STOLEN HORSE.
From the New York Times.


Paterson, Sept. 20.-Rex, a big st.
Bernard dog, was the detective who
to-day recovered for his master. doc"
Rinard Deutscher. horse that was
stolen from his stable in July.
Deutscher was driving another horse
through Main street to-day when Rex
jumped from the saloonkeepers' car
riage, and, running at a horse attached
10 huckster's wagon, proceeded to
Bark and wag his tail furiously. Then
he ran back toward Deutscher's car
riage and barked more furiously.
Again returning to the horse with the
huckster's wagon, Rex jumped up at
the horse and licked the horses jaw.
The horse cooked it's ears, lowered it's
head, and rubbed its neck against the
dogs head Deutscher tried to call the
dog away, but Rex wouldn't leave the
horse.
A crowd quickly gathered. A man
who knew that Rex had slept for two
years in the stall with the horse that
had been stolen suggested to Deutscher
that probably Rex had found the stolen
horse.
Deutscher then examined the horse,
and found that it was his. The ami
mails tail had been locked, his name
had been shorn and several Identify
ing spots had been dyed.
The huckster willingly surrendered
the horse. which he said he had bought
from a Hackensack man, and he was
not held

NEW EVENTS FOR MOSQUITO.
From the Philadelphia Press.

Tarrytown, N. Y, Sept. 19.-Tarry-
town promises to be a unique place, in
fact, a place much to be envied. If the
school boys and girls carry out the
plans laid down by Col. Isaac w.
Brown of Indiana. the great authority
on bird life, the Jersey mosquito will
become extinct. Through the kindness
of Miss Helen Miller Gould the people
of Irvington and Tarrytown were priv
LEGGED to hear this interesting man
talk to-day and that is why there is
good news for Jersey.
Col. Brown said that if every boy
built a small bird box to house the pur-
pie martin this bird would exterminate
the mosquito, and continuing the col
onel said: You have plenty of mar
tin food here"
In speaking of the martin he said
this bird comes in the spring, stays
through the summer and works for you.
He is the enemy of the mosquito and
can carry as many as 200 of these in
sects in his throat.
The colonel had pictures to show
martin houses he had built near a tent
in Indiana. where religious services
were held and by this means the peo-
pie were entirely free from mosquitoes.

PAIN KILLED BY BLUE LIGHT.
From the Philadelphia Record.


Washington, Sept. 20.-After three
years of patient research, Prof. Redard
of Geneva, Switzerland, assisted by
Prof. Emery, has discovered a new
painless method of Extracting teeth
which promises to revolutionize the
practice of dentistry.
In reporting it to the State Depart
ment Consul Liefeld, at Freiburg. Ger
many, states that finding that the ner-
vous system was influenced by colored
light the professors soon perceived,
after experimenting with each hue,
that blue had an extraordinary sooth-
ing effect on the nerves.
Putting this discovery to practical
use, Prof. Redard now shuts up a pa
tient in a dark room and exposes his
eyes to blue light of 16 candle-power
for three minutes, causing him to lose
all sense of pain, although at the same
time retaining his senses. A tooth may
then be painlessly extracted with none
of the after effects on the system
which sometimes follow ether or chlor-
oforrn.

THE LIQUOR QUESTION IN AU-
GUSTA.

Augusta is on the threshold of a red
hot prohibition campaign. The Pro-
hibitionists and church people are up
in arms because the City Council has
granted licenses in two or three in
stances for saloons right in the shadow
of churches. At least that is the state
ment in our Augusta dispatches.
The Rev. Sam Jones and the Rev.
DR.. Broughton have been invited to
visit the city and do their best talk
ing in behalf of prohibition, in order
to arouse sentiment against the sa-
looms and bring out large vote
against the liquor traffic. They are
fighters who hit from the shoulder and
they will inaugurate a campaign in
Augusta the like of which that city
hasn't seen in many day. 1t will
beat all the campaigns which the poll.
ticians conduct for offices.
We don't blame the Prohibitionists
and church people for taking steps to
close up the saloons. if the facts are
as stated in our dispatches. There is
no reason in the policy of the City
Council in granting licenses to saloons
that are so close to the churches that
the climbing of the glasses in the bar
rooms can be heard in the pulpits. 1t
seems that the church people protest
ed against the granting of licenses so
close to the churches, but for reasons
not stated in our dispatches the pro-
tests were not needed.
1t may be that the City Council felt
itself strong enough to disregard the
PROFESSIONAL it thought the votes con-
trolled by the dramshops were more
numerous than those controlled by the
churches-or it may be that the appn-
cants for the licenses had a stronger
pull than those making the protests.
But, whatever the reason, It is evident
that the City Council. by its action,
has brought on a contest that prom
ises to be memorable in the history of
Augusta.
We are sure that the Rev. Sam Jones
and the Rev. DR.. Broughton will en-
ter into the fight with more real sat-
isfaction than they enter upon their
annual vacations. and that they will
have some things to say about the
members OF the City Council of Au-
gusta that will make those worthy
gentlemen wish they had taken a sec
ond sober thought before authorizing
the opening of saloons under the caves,
as Il were. OF churches.
