Rody Again.

treaty during the week, both in open
and in executive session. Senator Nor

phases of the situation, which he will

able discussion of the treaty behind
closed doors.
1t is expected that on Monday or
Tuesday, time, probably, Feb %,
will be fixed for taking vote on the
treaty.
If Senator Hanna dies. Congress will
adjourn for one and possibly two days,
on account of his death and funeral.
Should there be any time to spare
from consideration of the treaty and
the various resolutions relating to the
Panama situation. the Agricultural APP
preparation bill will be passed.
There is quite a lot of business on
the calendar of a miscellaneous char
acter, which will occupy the time when
no public measures are pressing.

SAVED FROM DEATH IN
A PADDLE WHEEL
Gallant Rescue of Girl on a San
tee River Steamer.


tee River Steamer.
Columbia, S. c., Feb. IA story Of
splendid daring, combined with rare
physical prowess has just been re-
ceived through the medium of one
whose Indebtedness bespeaks for a
public acknowledgment of his graft
tude. Though meager in details the
essentials are preserved.
On Jan. %, Mr.. j. D. Long and
daughter of Rosemary, a hamlet on
the banks of the Santee river, were
ascending the river on one of the
steamers that ply it's lower waters.
These boats are of the ordinary type
of river steamers, broad beamed and
with side wheels. 1t is with these side
wheels that this story relates.
In the course of their passage up
the river Mr.. Longs daughter. Ethel,
ventured too near the edge of the deck.
Bewildered, perhaps, by the rapid rev.
olutions of the wheel, the girl, who
was standing some feet forward of
the wheels, lost her balance and top
pied into the water directly in the
path of the wheel. The danger of
death by drowning was lost in the
more imminent peril of being caught
and mutilated by the paddles of the
steamer. 1t was a situation that de-
manded instant action on the part of
any would-be rescuer. Before the
crew or the fear-paralyzed father
could collect their wits a man dashed
to the side of the vessel and plunged
into the water. In an instant he was
at the side of the struggling girl
but too late, it seemed. to save her or
himself from the blades. To become
confused would be fatal to both.
Grasping the girl in his arms the
man dragged her, despite her efforts.
beneath the water, and the steamer
passed over the spot where they had
sunk. With the girl still in his arms
the rescuer rose. He had dived be-
meath the surface just in time to save
himself and his charge. Without wait
ing for assistance he struck out for
the shore hundred yards away. He
had not over estimated his strength
and succeeded in bringing himself and
his burden to land.
The gentleman who performed this
daring and difficult feat was a Mr..
Sparks-that was all the father of the
rescued girl could learn.

strain of them weighs at one year old
about 300 pounds.
Color-In color they were like Jacobs

some blue. some red, and some spot

were the most prolific. They did not
roam over the range like the distin-
guished razorbacks, but always stay
ed in good condition on small terri
tory. Their. color was propagated al
most by chance, or rather by the
choice of the owner who cared very
little for color. The prettiest | ever
saw were reds but the most prolific
and largest were the blacks; the blues
and whites were very shy breeders.
Crossed with the common razorback

advances too tedious to mention. We
no longer turn back to the methods
and implements of fifty years ago,
neither do we pride ourselves on the
breeds of past ages, but progress is
the watchword of the present-none
the less true in animal production
than in other lines of improvement.

1t is a strange fact that the pioneers

In this they are not different from the
rest of us: if we had had our lot cast
under similar circumstances. and had
been endowed with that restless ad
venturous disposition which is the es-
sential element of a pioneer. we all
should do as they are doing.
Log and lumber men will live on our

MINE WORKERS OFFICERS
ATTACKED AND BEATEN

Trinidad. Col, Feb. 14.-William Far

National Board of the United Mine

in their buggy and drove to Bowen.
Subsequently, they were brought to
Trinidad. Mooney was seriously in

FRUIT AND TRUCK
IN SOUTH FLORIDA.
$4,000 Boxes of Oranges Shipped
from kissimmee.

Kissimmee, Fla, Feb. 14.-The
orange shipments so far this season
from this place are $4,000 boxes with
probably 5000 more boxes to be
shipped.
The planting of lettuce this season
under irrigation as tested by George
f. Parker has proven complete sue
cess. The celery which he is testing
also, up to the present, shows up well.
The farmers are very prosperous in
this section and are preparing to plant
very largely ordinary crops, as well as
early vegetables.
The winter, while not exceptionally
severe. has been hard on cattle, caus-
ing the death of probably several thou
sand head of cattle in this county. Two
causes have contributed very much to-
wards this. one the moving of cattle
from place to place on account of pas
lures, thereby putting them on ranges
they are not used to, and starting in
the winter with the herds not in as
good condition as usual, consequent
on summer driving from place to place.
The burning of woods at time when,
of all times, the cattle need the grass
is another cause.

them in East Texas when l was

LIVE A CENTURY
Blood Wine Will Enable
You to ProIong LfTN

If you want to live to be 90 or 100
years old, Blood Wine will help you do
it. Purify your blood, drive out all
poisons and diseases, and you regain
youthful strength. If you are already
old you can prolong your life by taking
Blood Wine.
Most old people need vitality - re-
juvenating. The cause of old age is the
stagnation of the vital forces of the
body. The blood grows thin and the
heart then becomes feeble, disease and
in6rmities then come on. They are
often nervous and irritable. They see
the end of life at hand, and many of
them are not sorry, because life has
ceased to attract them.
Blood Wine makes life look bright
and pleasant to old people, the same as
to the young. Blood Wine puts elastic
ity into their limbs, drives out rheu-
matte pains, quickens the circulation
and warns the blood. 1t actually adds
long and pleasant years to life for the
aged.
City Marshal Odlin of Lewiston, Me-,
writes i'll this connection:
"Some months ago I noticed your
Blood Wine upon the market, and as it
was advertised as being particularly
good for elderly people, took home a
bottle to my wife's father, w. c. Walton,
who was suffering from the general i'm
firmities of old age. He declared he had
never seen its equal. 1t built him up
and invigorated him rapidly. He claims
he feels ten years younger than he did a
year ago, and now he would not be with
out it, for in case of a sudden attack of
indigestion or biliousness it is inval-
liable.
