Things Thnf Went Wrong.

Dripping with wet, Mr.. Horace P.
Shryke. a south side business man
stepped into a downtown store yester-
day morning and bought a IS umbrella,
says the Chicago Tribune.
When he went out into the open air
again with his purchase the rain was
still descending in torrents.
The wife of Mr.. William r. Glossop,
Jr., a prosperous citizen of Rogers
Park. had given him a Christmas pres
ent of box of plain. ordinary looking
cigars.
Bless her heart" he exclaimed, as
he sat down to try one of them. "She
means well, but what do women know
about buying these things? l wouldn t
be afraid to bet SO bill that these
are the vilest and rankest things a
man ever smoked"
They were.

Gently by scientists of Wisconsin and
Illinois are of local interest. The ex-
periments were for the purpose of test
ing the longevity of typhoid bacilli in

to be that typhoid germs live longer
in pure water than in water contami-
mated by sewage, and longer in
winter than in summer Soil
bacteria quickly destroy the ty-
phoid bacteria, but the bacteria
in uncontaminated water seem to have
no such power of destruction on the
disease germs. At the temperature of

days. Under certain conditions the
germs may retain life for months and

THE LYNcHING OF KING COTTON.


Neither frenzied finance nor frenzied
journalism ever experienced a keener
thrill than was given both on Wednes-
day by the report that King Cotton
had been lynched in Georgia-cremated
a Ia Reed and Cato-for no crime of
his own, save that he had overgrown
himself. But, as much as King Cot
ton had expanded, it was nothing to
compare with the manner in which the
story Of his lynching expanded. At
lanta had the sending end of the wires.
The stories that were put on them
melted the transmitting instruments
and sent the operators to bed with
nervous prostration. 1t was too shock
ing even for Atlanta nerves. as wit
ness the fact that even the Atlanta
papers did not print the stories that
were sown broadcast through the press
of the United States under Atlanta
date lines.
New York and New Orleans and
Liverpool and Fall River nearly had
fits when the Atlanta dispatches tell
ing of the lynching began to come in.
Not even Thomas w. Lawson could
have thrown such a scare into" the
markets and men interested in cotton.
Governors of states held their breath
momentarily, and then said sage things
about the sin and folly of burning
cotton. Commissioners of agriculture
wagged their wise heads and reluctant
~ submitted to be interviewed on the
horrors of the situation.
The New York Times printed a dis
patch of several hundred words, under
an Atlanta date line, in which it was
stated as a fact that more than 5000
bales of cotton" had been burned at
Fort Gaines, and that several thousand
other bales were now blazing in the
Southern section of the state" The
veracious chronicler for the Times es-
timated that more than 100000 worth
Of cotton" had already been destroyed,
and said there was no telling where
the movement would stop. The i'm
preston sought to be conveyed was
that the whole state of Georgia was
pretty well lighted up with bonfires
made of cotton; that the people had
gone daft and were burning up their
money. The Louisville Courier-Journal
printed a dispatch, from Atlanta, SINH
lar in tone to that of the Times, but
it placed the number of bales burned
at Fort Gaines at 300. The PhiladeI-
phia Records story said several bales
were burned. Various New York and
other Northern papers, evidently afraid
of the heavy figures of the Atlanta
story, declined to be specific and left
the extent of the incineration in doubt
Reliable reports received from Fort
Gaines are to the effect that one bale
was burned. 1t seems that certain
merchants and farmers agreed that
they would be willing to burn their
share of 100000 bales" in order to
boost the price. Calculating upon the
census figures, Fort Gaines share"
of 100000 bales of 500 pounds each for
the whole cotton belt would be some
thing like 100 pounds of cotton. On
that basis, it seems that more than
Fort Gaines share was burned.
Meanwhile we are sure that the gem
tlemen who made Mole st. Nicholas,
Shanghai and Cheefoo famous must
feel envious that their laurels have
been so ruthlessly plucked by Atlanta.
