PLEADS TO COME HOME.
South Carolina Exile Wishes to
Return to the State.

Cali my people and property are in
South Carolina. Will you grant me
the privilege of returning?"
This was a message that J. B. Ben
nett, an exile from his native state,
wired Governor Hayward. Within
three hours the governors message
was received declining to grant Ben
neJt's plea.
The governor said he could not re-
yoke the action of Governor Nc
Sweeny, who had exlled Bennett. In
1896 Bennett killed man in South
Carolina. He was convicted and sent
to the peniteD tiary.
In 1899 his friends secured pardon
for him from Governor McSweeny,
but in granting the pardon the gov
ernor stipulated that Bennett should
leave the state and never return, and
since then Bennett has been wander
err. His best wish is to return home.

NO WHITE GLOVES FOR HIM
Speaker Cannon Wouldn't Wear
Them at Social Function.

Speaker Cannon is as averse to wear
ing white kid gloves as a part Of his
evening attire as he is to bowling low
from his marble rostrum when Assist
ant Secretary Barnes stands at the
head Of the center aisle with a message
from the president, says the Washing
ton Post.
A few nights ago he was one of the
chief guests at a prominent social func-
ton. Stepping friskily into the gentle
mems dressing room, he noticed several
young men working into their white
gloves.
"Boys," said he in a burst Of frank
ness, "have kid gloves come back into
style again? By gosh, don't like to
wear 'em. They went out Of style for
me fifteen years ago"
And brushing the specks off his swal-
lowtail coat, which fitted him as grace
fully as though it were made by the
most fashionable of London tailors, the
speaker of the house pranced down the
grand staircase barehanded.

WONDERFUL EFFECTS OF RADIUM

the eminent oculist of Paris. IN an in
teresting conversation he mentioned
some curious results which he had OBJ
tanned in his work by experimenting
with radium.
He recently treated case Of rodent
ulcer Of the orbit, which had destroyed
the ocular globe and all the tissues.
Although the patient had for two years
suffered from pains so intolerable that
during that period he had not enjoyed
a single nights rest, his agony was
completely and almost instantly ended
by the introduction of radio active
powder.
In one case treated by the doctor the
woman, who had long suffered from
epileptic fits and giddiness, has not had
a single attack since radium Of weak
intensity was applied to the temple.
"Radium was also tried with sue
cess" said DR.. Darier, ION male pa
tient who suffered from strange SOM
nambulistic attacks, during which he
would get up, maltreat his wife ana
break everything within reach. Then
he would leave the house and roam
about the streets for two or three
hours, at the end Of which time ne
would return home, go to bed and ran
asleep again. So frequent did these
violent fits become that his wife lett
him.
"He came to me, and I treated MIN
with radfum applications for twelve
days Then he disappeared, and l
heard nothing more of him for about
three months, when he and his Wl1e
came to tell me that the affection from
which he formerly suffered had gone
and that they were living together
again
81 have since treated other nervous
patients with radium, notably a lady
who suffered from photophobia, or rear
of the light. She was very neuras-
thenic and believed that she was ajax
ic. She could not walk without Iall-
ing, and her eyes were so weak llat
she could not bear the light OF day anu
had to wear dark spectacles. dlas
nosed her trouble as neurasthenla u

tales of involuntary servitude and are
thereupon sent to the federal prison
at Atlanta, where they are detained as
witnesses and fed at the governments
expense, receiving in addition the fee
of 81 per day allowed federal wit
nesses.
The alluremert of living at the
governments expense aud also receiv-
ing the 81 per day is so strong that
every negro farm hand who hears
about it desires to break his contract
and become witness.
Thus the cotton fields are being
slowly but surely drained of laborer5
The evil has grown to such an extent
already that farmers cannot depend
upon the contract labor they once en-
ployed, and in consequence the cotton
industry is seriously threatened, and
complaints are beginning to come from
all sections of the south.
1t is said a little army of secret SER
vice men are at work in the south upon
this scheme. These agents and the
numerous witnesses they are securing
are paid, it is SAID, from the fund set
aside by congress solely for Investigate
ing and prosecuting the trusts. The
president is seemingly trying again to
show how careless he is of the bust
mess and industrial interests when the
fascinating game of politics is being
waged.
Just what will become of Repre-
sentative Howard 3 move In congress
cannot be foretOld, but it is believed
other congressman who see farming
constituents are similarly menaced will
join in With him and at least attract
some notice to the rank outrage that

A bill has been introduced in con-
gress increasing the salary of the pres
ident of the United States from $4,000
to $4,000 An increase was made dur
ing General Grants term from S25, 900
to $50, 900 year. 1t has remained for
President Roosevelt's term to suggest
another increase.
President Roosevelt also wishes con-
gress to appropriate 800, 900 to9erect a
new stable for the white house horses.
He says the old structure is unfit, and
is so damp that the horses are becom-

thiZes with the poor white house
brutes, and has transmitted a recon-
mendation to congress that the
amount be appropriated for properly
housing them.
Thus will the white house improve

sum asked for will almost be enough
to keep the white house animals dry

The Atlanta Journal prints the fol-
lowing sensation special from Wash
sugton. 1t is important if true:
Secret service agents, acting under
instructions from President Roosevelt,
IL is said, haYe 50 seriously disturbed
che farm labor situation of Georgia and
other southern states by digging
around for evidence ofalleged peonage
or slavery that congressional inter
feren,e will be invoked this week by
Representative w. Nj. Howard of the
eight Georgia district.
Mr.. Howard has prepared resolu-
zion calling on the attorney general TO
asesow what use has been made or the
e,alf million dollar fund appropriated
4,x the last congress for the purpose OF
prosecuting the trusts, add he believes
The adoption of the resolution would
ey1isnlose the fact that the money is be-
ing used, without instruction from
congress, to harrass southern farmers
in the interest of Rooscvelt's political
xeanpaigu. Roosevelt. it is said, looks
eapon the existing contracts between
white employers and negro farm labor
eers as a species of slavery, and fancies
he can break it up, and then claim po-
3itical credit from the negroes and me-
.orophiles of the doubtful states in the
north and east.
His idea is that he will liberate the
gnegro from an Involuntary servitude
and pose as the lat5er-day Abraham
Lincoln; brt opinion OF southern con
oressmen is that he will strike a blow
at the basic pro .perity of the south, a
ss1low such as it has not felt since real
slavery was abolished
There would be no complaint If the
Roosevelt crusade affected only the
cases of real peonage, but the system

The possibility of using radium tc
convert ordinary rain and well water
into a mineral water more highly me-
dicinal than any known natural min
eral water has been recently demon
strated at the University of Michigan
in a series of experiments covering
over ten weeks, says an Ann Arbor
O1ich.) dispatch to the Chicago Trib-
unc.
DR.. Rollin II. Stevens Of Detroit, q
skin disease specialist, who holds lee
ture chair at Michigan, having spent
last summer in Europe studying ra-
dunn, returned recently to try his ra-
dunn outfit on cancer. He hit upon
the idea of immersing radium tube
in water, tightly closed in glass bottles.
DR.. Stevens was looking for a method
by which radium could be applied to
the interior of cancer without any
danger of the terrible radiuIn, or X
ray, burns,
He worked on the known phenOm-
en0n that every substance brought
even within a moderate distance of
radium absorbs the radium rays and
afterward gives them out exactly like
a radium tube. By leaving a sealed
tube in pure distilled water for twenty
four hours he produced radio active
water OF powerful effects, as his tests
Immediately proved.
Injected into cancers, this water stop
ped pain in ten minutes. His first pa
tent was a man whose allotted life
was week, sufferer from cancer and
an X ray burn. This man took NOR
phine to endure his pain, but after one
application Of the radium water he was
able to stop the morphine completely.
Even in his weakened condition the
homemade mineral water successfully
stopped craving for the drug and also
prolonged his life two months.
Other patients now under the radium
water treatment include one with
cancer Of eighteen years standing and
some Of the ordinary nose and breast
cancers. The eighteen year cancer has
had over six weeks of water treatment,
and from the first five minutes after
applying water pain has been almost
wholly absent In each of the other
cases pains stopped Immediately, and
several poor sufferers were released
from the morphine habit which had
been forced upon them.
The experiments of scientists with
radium are daily revealing fresh cura-
tive properties in that wonderful and
precious mineral. Perhaps the most
curious instance of its influence is that
recorded below of the cure of a SOM
nambulist who was addicted to wife
beating, says the London Nails Paris
correspondent.

into the faith only the day before,
In ordaining them Mr.. Gentry said
that he consecrated them In the
same manner as the apostle Paul
did Timothy, by blessing them and
laying hands on them, and cloth
ing them with the same spirit
which he Gentry possessed, and
conferring upon them the power to
heal the afflicted. He counseIed

"My homeless friend with the

stirring up the sugar in u teu-cent
glass of gin, let me give you fact
to wash down with it. You may
say you have longed for years for
the free independent life of a farm
er, but you have never been able
TO get money enough to buy a
farm. But there is where you are
mistaken. For some years you
have been drinking good i'm
proved farm at the rate of one hun
dred square feet at a gulp, If you
doubt this statement, figure it out
for yourself An acre Of land
contains 43,560 square feet. Esti-
mating for convenience, the land
at S43,56 an acre you will see that
it brings the land just one mile per
foot. Now pour down the fiery
dose and imagine you are swallow
ing rawberry patch, Call in
five of your friends and have them
help you gulp down that five hun
dred foot garden. Get on a pro-
longed spree some day and see
how long it will take to swallow

down that glass of gin, there is
dirt in it-one hundred feet of
good, rich dirt, worth S43.56 per

Decorative Possibilities OF Bits Of

Decorative ?ossibiIisfes OF Bits Of
Broken Glass and China.
Few people realize the really decora-
tive possibilities of the broken china
ANA stained glass that are usually
thrown into the rubbish heap as worth
less. Very effective jardinleres, table
tops, vases and fern dishes may be
evolved from the most ordinary materi-
ais, such as unglazed stone Jars or com.
mon center tables, by the application Of
putty aud bits of stained glass and bro
ken china.
For instance, a beautiful jardiniere
may be made with bits of broken china.
the most suitable foundation for this
purpose is an unglazed jar. This should
be first painted and then covered with
putty one-f0urth of an inch deep. The
broken pieces OF china should be
pressed into place and the jar set away
10 dry When dry paint, gild and var
nish any putty that may remain yisi-
bic, Vases Of oriental or odd designs
eighteen or more inches high are also
handsome when inlald with broken
bits. II sufficient quantity is not to
5e had at home--although In the aver
age home where the average twentieth
century servant is employed there viii
be no difficulty in this respect-a good
quantity may be secured from china
store by asking the merchant TO save
you the broken pieces when unpacking
goods Of course you will be expected
to pay him for his trouble, Deep red,

form pleasing contrasts with the light
