Tie people Of this part of
Iowa should be very thankful
to the weather man. The whole
eastern part of the United
States is in the clutches of a
raging blizzard, while here in
Iowa, the weather is as warm
and genial as you ever saw it in
May. Verify, Iowa is the gar
len spot of the world.

The Best Lininlent.

"Chamberlain's Pain Balm is
considered the best on the mark
et," write Post & Bliss, of
Georgia, Vt. No other liniment
will heal a cut or bruise so
promptly. No other affords
such quick relief from rheum-
attic pains. No other is so valu-
able for deep seated pains like
lame back and paines in the
chest. Give this.liniment a trial
and become acqu ant9d with it's
remarkable qualities and you
will never wish to be without
it. For sale by Elliott & Harvey.

parents did not know what to
give it. Suggested that if they
would get bottle of Chamber

did and brought about a quick
relief and cured the baby"

BABY MOOSE is GRATEFUL.
Licl<s the Hand That Saves 1t from

From the st. Louis Dispatch.
Not one hunter in a hundred ever
gets a chance to see a tragedy of the
wilderness. Not one in ten thousand
ever has the opportunity to earn the
gratitude of one of its denizens. Arthur
L. Gillian has had both, and photo

With r. M. Grant Mr.. Gillian recent

The two gentlemen are familiar with
every lake, bog, mountain and stream
IN the great wilderness between the
Allegash and the upper Munsungan.
They knew the haunts of the big game
there and their rifles brought down
their share of the spoils of the chase
But one morning Mr. Gillian came
across moose-a baby moose-which
could not escape his rifle had Ii been
able. 1t was mired knee deep in the
mud on the border of the little stream
which connects Clear Lake with the

superintendent Williamson OF
Southern Hallway in Savannah.
The change in the divisions of the

Mr.. w. l.. Williamson. formerly
superintendent of the terminals only,
has been made superintendent of the
new division. with headquarters at
jacksonville. The preliminary an
nouncement of this change was made
in the Morning News several DAYS
ago.
Mr.. Williamson was in Savannah
yesterday. where he was met by Mr..
II. A. Williams, superintendent of the
Southern. with headquarters at Co
lumbia. who came for the purpose of
formerly turning over to the new in
cumbent that part of the Columbia d.
vision that is embraced in the new di-

DIRECTORS TO SETTLE

Col. Estin Not Candidate for Presi-
dency of Chamber of Commerce.
A meeting of the directors of the
Chamber of Commerce has been called
by Col. EstilI, president Of the or
ganization. for tomorrow afternoon
at 4SO O'Clock At this meeting the
date for the annual meeting and
smoker of the organization will be de-
cided.
This will be the chief matter 70
come before the meeting though it is
also probable that an effort will be
begun to secure for this port a line
of the United Fruit Company's steam
ers between this country and either
Jamaica or Cuba. The advantages of
such a line in increasing the business
of the port were shown in yesterdays
Morning News. The matter will
doubtless be taken up with the presi-
dent of the fruit company by a COM
mittee of the Chamber of Commerce.
In connection with the annual meet
ing of the Chamber of Commerce, at
which time the officers for the next
year will be elected, there is much in
tereSt as to who will be elected to fill
the various positions. Col. ]. H.
Estill, now the head of the organiza-
ton, has notified some of the members
that he is not a candidate for re-elec-
ton. He does not believe, he says,
that in an organization of this kind
one man should stay in Office too long,
and he would like to see another per-
son given his place New men, in his
opinion, have new ideas, and by giving
them an opportunity of carrying them
out the organization may be bene-
fitted,

miring himself, and before the little
fellow grew frightened he was able to
get fine photograph of the baby as he
stood in the mire, helpless and furlorn.
When he got back to camp Mr.. Gill
lam told Mr.. Grant, and two days later
the two hunters sought the spot again
to see if the little moose was still there.
He was and apparently in more dis
tress than ever.
THE poor little fellow ought to be
got out" said Mr.. Gillian, Just for his
pluck"
So they chopped down trees and
brush and soon built a firm foundation
around the tiny moose and another for
themselves. Then with ropes and
much pulling and hauling they finally
got him on solid ground. The little
moose was all gratitude. He licked the
hands of his preservers and showed
absolutely no fear at their presence,
though moose are among the most tim
i'd animals that inhabit the wilds.
But the long exposure and his many
struggles, together with the lack of
food, proved too much for even this
little sturdy son of the forest. Soon
his limbs gave way and he sank to the
ground, played out. The hunters work.
ed over the little fellow, but their eff
forts were useless. He died licking
their hands in his mute thankfulness
for what they had done for him.
Mr.. Gillian was among the luekiest
hunters in that region. He got. the
one moose and the two deer allowed
by law. The moose was a splendid bull,
with horns that had eighteen points.
and measured fifty-one inches from tip
to tip. Each one of the three was drop
ped with a single shot from a '30S-cal-
iber Savage.

PHYSIOLOGY IN THE
C0LORED COLLEGE

The writer was invited by President
Wright to be present at the session Of
the recent Wiregrass Farmers Con-
ference at the Georgia State Industrial
College, and with a friend, listened to
an address on Social Drinking" by
Prof. Suggs, followed by a paper by
DR.. Williams on the effect of alcohol
on the Brain" At the close we were
both invited to address the assembled
students, and suggested they should
form an organization for total absti-
hence, 10 which Principal Wright cor
daily agreed. and the pledges of the
Epworth League of the Northern NJ
e. Church, for young men and boys.
and young women and girls, We're
taken by eighty-three young men and
women and a few younger students,
with the intention of forming a tenn
perance society.
On talking later with Prof. Suggs,
we learned that in addition to the
regular teaching of physiology on the
nature and effects of narcotics and all
coholics on the whole body: manda-
tory in the public schools by all the
states in the Union, and lastly Geor-
gia, he presented a series of expert
ments with alcohol and not one young
woman touched or offered wine or
other intoxicants at their festivities,
at Christmas. nor did any young man
present himself in a hilarious con-
dition as has been the case in some m
stances heretofore.
We rejoiced to find some fruit
among our colored citizens of the
teaching of temperance physiology,
and trust that IL is only the beginning
of much good In all schools. We trust
that a good, strong organization will
be effected.

RUM0RED THAT MIKADO'S
AGENT Is COMING HERE.
Secret Emissary Reported to De So
Letting Spanish War Veterans.

CPahASAA w NCtCEhhSs
Vague rumors are af1oat to the effect
that a secret emissary of the Mikado
has been at work in Charleston and
other nearby cities in an attempt to
induce officers of military organiza-
tions to enlist in the japanese army.
According to the rumor, high rank
in the Jap army is the incentive Of
fered especially to the commissioned
officers who saw service in the war
with Spain. The emissary is said to
be employed by a Japanese junta in
New York city. The work is being
conducted with the utmost secrecy, in
order that there may be no conflict
with President Roosevelts proclama-
ton of neutrality, it is reported.
Despite the fact that rumor said the
secret agent was coming to Savannah,
local military officers have heard moth
ing of the matter and have not been
approached on the subject of enlist
ing. The inclination is to cast dis
credit on the story. especially on ac-
count of the repeated statements of
the Mikado that foreigners would not
be enlisted in his army.
