Capt. r. d. Buchanan, widely known
in marine circles along the Atlantic
coast, has been appointed a vice ad-
miral of the Turkish navy at a salary
of $4,000 per year. He took the new
Turkish cruiser Mejidia from Hamp-
ton Roads to Constantinople last year,
having been selected for that task by
the Cramp Shipbuilding Company. It
will be remembered that the cruiser
did not leave American waters until
the shipbuilding company had been
paid in full The young American has
been given free hand to work what
reforms he thinks necessary in the

DEATH OF MAJoR RYALs.

In the death of Mai. Garland NJ q.
Ryals, the South loses a brave and
true son, and Georgia and Savannah
an honored and respected citizen. Maj.
Ryals was probably best known
throughout the state as a progressive
tilling of the soil a scientific study
and loved the work. The results of
his investigations and experiments he
gave freely to other farmers for their
information, so that through his eff
forts agriculture and horticulture in
the state have been materially ad-
vanced.
The Savannah morning news., 1904-09-14

1t seems after all that there was no
leak in the Department of Agriculture
by means of which some parties OBJ
tanned the governments information
relative to the condition of the cotton
crop before other parties obtained it.
The Cotton Exchange in this city was
practically certain that there was
leak in connection with the last re
port and that parties in New York OBJ
tanned the information an hour or more
before it was received in this city.
The matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the Secretary of Agriculture,
and he began an investigation, which,
according to our dispatches yesterday,
showed that the alleged prior informa-
ton was only a shrewd guess, and had
been published at least three days be-
fore the date of the issue of the gov
ernment's report
1t is of course remarkable that the
guess should have tailed with the gov
eminent report. but it seems it did,
though such thing isn't likely to hap
pen again in years. The explanation
that has been offered is calculated to
strengthen confidence in the statement
of the department that it is practically
impossible for any one to get the re-
port until it is officially promulgated.
The suspicion that the Savannah Cot
ton Exchange had that there was a
leak in the department by which the
cotton crop report got into private
hands before it was officially promul-
gated was not the first suspicion of the
kind that has been brought to the atten-
ton of the Secretary of Agriculture.
The existence of a leak has been
charged on several occasions, and
though denial has always been forth
coming the suspicion that the report
gets out prematurely is pretty gem
orally entertained.
The Secretary of Agriculture has two
plans under consideration for allaying
it. One is to have present repre-
sentative of the cotton exchanges of
the country when the report is being
the report after the exchanges close,
instead just at their opening hour. The
chief objection to the second plan is
that the Liverpool Exchange would
have an advantage over the exchanges
in this country. 1t is probable that
some method will be hit upon to give
satisfaction

GAMBLING FOR A CHURCH.

Henry Labouchere in London Truth
About the middle of the last CEN
fury, when the German Bund sat at
Frankfort, was an attache to our le-
cation there, and as Homburg was
close by l spent a good deal of my time
in that cheerful spot.
The most curious thing that 1 saw
was this. Afchurch in an Asatian
village was damaged by fire. The viii
lage blacksmith dreamt that he made
a machine which when wound up
threw out a counter with number on
it every five minutes. He went in his
dream to Homburg with the machine.
played on the number and won enough
to restore the church. When he re-
lated his dream to his fellow Villagers
money was subscribed, the machine
was made and he was sent to HON.
burg with a small capital.
Every day for a week the machine
was placed in the gambling room I'M
der his supervision, two peasants
stood at the roulette table to play and
the village priest walked up and down
the room praying. At the end of the
week the requisite amount was won.
The priest assured me that this was
the result of miracle. He may have
been right or he may have been wrong.
Anyhow the money was won and the
village church restored.

FRIENDLY WITH THE PoPULIsrs.

Mr.. Watson, the presidential candi-
date of the Populists, knew the senti-
ments of his party pretty thoroughly
when he. said, in his Atlanta speech,
that he preferred Mr.. Roosevelt to
Judge Parker. 1t is interesting to
note how friendly the Republicans are
becoming with the Populists. The Re-
publican newspapers print much more
of the speeches of the Populist spell
binders than their news value war
rants and they take occasion. when
ever the opportunity presents itself,
to lend the Populist a helping hand.
The Republicans do not of course
approve the doctrines of the Popu-
lists, but they believe a good many
voters do-voters who would vote the
Democratic ticket if there were no
Populist ticket. Their plan is to keep
these voters from voting for Judge
Parker, by aiding them to vote for Mr.
Watson. In other words, the pro-
gramme of the Populist leaders in this
campaign seems to be to help the
Republicans defeat the Democrats.
The Populist leaders hate the Demo-
cratic party and they are prepared to
do what they can to defeat it. They
know that if it should be successful in
the present campaign what remains of
the Populist party would go to pieces
and be scattered, and that it would be
practically impossible to get the frag-
ments together again.
And they believe also that the defeat
of the Democratic party in this cam
paign will have such a demoralizing
effect on that party that many of its
members win become members of the
Populist party Therefore they are
aiding the Republican party by strik-
ing all the blows they can against the
Democratic party.
BY being friendly with the Populists
the Republican party hopes to secure
the return to itself of those who left it
under the name of Silver Republicans.
1t seems that one Silver Republican of
some prominence, a man named Fellot-
son, has written for publication a let
ter. in which he says that Silver Re-
publicans generally, now that the
financial question is not an issue, are
going back to their old party, viz,
the Republican party. So it seems the
Republican leaders and newspapers are
cultivating the Populists for two rea-
sons, namely. to insure the return to
their old party of the Silver Repub-
leans and to prevent Democrats, who
Joined the Populists when their party
commanded respect for it's strength,
from going back to their party. They
are trying to keep Democrats in the
Popuist party by making it appear
that that party is of more consequence
than it really is.

Mosquitoes Mt Black Rock.

Gen. T. C. Watson insists that there
are no mosquitoes at Black Rock
where he has summer home. His
partner, Mr.. Gibson, tells the Boston
Record this story of a Tuxedo neigh
Dor who went to Black Rock to spend
the night with a friend who was given
to occasional convivialities.
The Black Rocker wasn't on hand
to receive the Tuxedo party, but a
valuable man servant made him as
much at home as possible, assuring
the visitor that the missing cottage
owner would be back in the morning.
That night the Tuxedoan had an un-
ending battle with the mosquitoes, and
after a sleepless night rose for an ear
ly breakfast, irritated and angry from
lack of sleep. At his solitary meal
he asked sullenly of the negro servi-
tor:
Il say, Sam, how does your master
manage to exist in this mosquito-in-
tested hole?'
''Well, sah," was the reply. "You
see, Marse George he only home nights
when he home at all. When he dun
come home he so 'toxicated, sab, he
doan' care a cuss for the skeeters, and
in the mornin', when he dun get up,
sab, the skeeters they so darn 'toxi-
Gated they don't care a cuss for Marse
George!"

HORSE THAT THINKS.
From Collier's WeeklY.


When report first spread that a
horse, Hans by name, was exhibiting
such mental powers as hitherto have
been monopolized by mankind. the
story was set down as hot weather
or silly season" yarn. Hans was
vouched for, however, by German
scientists of ponderous dignity and
reputation, and the public became Sc
riously interested. 1t was out of the
question that German scientists should
spring hoax of this sort and sign
their names to it, and it is equally
impossible to imagine this remarkab BILE
equine Hans giving a horse laugh
in face of such credentials as have
made him famous the world over.
Prof. Moebius, director of the 70
illogical Museum of Berlin, one of the
foremost authorities in this field of in
vestigation, has prepared an exhaus-
tive treatise for the National Zeitung,
in which he affirms that Hans is a
rational being whose mental processes
include the capacity ito distinguish
clearly impressions received by the
eyes and ears, to keep them perma-
nently in his memory, and to express
them exactly" In other words this
four-footed prodigy is not merely a
trained horse" whose tricks are
taught him, as a dog is trained to re-
peat mechanically those movements
impressed upon him by motives of
fear or hope of reward.
Hans was, indeed, no more than a
remarkably intelligent trained horse,
until he began to improve upon the
simple feats in which he was drilled,
and displayed initiative which could
be explained only on the ground of
reasoning and computation. Berlin
scientific circles began to investigate
Hans, and in few weeks he was the
sensation of the hour. He showed
ability to perform simple sums in
arithmetic, expressing the answers by
stamping hoof on the ground. Before
committee of indisputable veracity
he counted up to one hundred, develop
ed an eye for colors by watching them
without mistake, and proved that he
had an ear for music by showing
signs of angry disapproval over dis
cords. The committee found that Hans
could spell words of one syllable, and
that he added to his vocabulary with
as much speed as that shown by an
average child in the primary grades.
In brief. Hans used his mind and his
memory to learn his lessons, and then
put two and two together"
Prof Moebius capped these astonish-
ing phenomena by declaring that he
asked the horse how many sevenths,
added to tive-sevenths would make
whole number The horse stamped his
foot twice. This was no mere coinci-
dence, for Professor and Herr Direc-
tor Moebius gave Hans other sums in
fractions to do, and received correct
answers.
The interested scientists of Berlin
make no attempt to explain these
events. They say that in this horse
there is something beyond all prece-
dent and transcending explanation.

Noah Waded in the Mud.

The Baltimore Sun says that at Wes-

the subject of eternal damnation'' was
introduced by one of a party of min
isters and laymen who We're lounging
about in one of the reception tents on
Preachers Row, enjoying secular re-
Taxation and social intercourse. One
gentleman addressed Bishop w. A H..
Gambler, of the Southern Methodist
Episcopal Church, and said:
Bishop, surely you don't believe that
God would permit anybody to be damn
ed, do you? Don't you think God is too
good for that p
To this Methodist with Universalist
predictions the Bishop replied:
Il don't know about that Biblical
history would seem to be to the con-
trary. According to the theory implied
in what you say all the wicked people
who were drowned in the flood went
straight to Heaven and to eternal rest,
away from the cares of this world,

HEN LAYS BANNER EGG.
Chicago Inter Ocean.

Capt. Petersen, Of the fruit steamer
Beacon, from Port Antonio, Jamaica.
has arrived at Philadelphia with a
cargo of bananas of unusual size. But
the bananas have little to do with
story for which the captain vouches.
Just before casting off lines at Fort
Antonio, Capt Petersen was presented
with very ordinary looking Jamaica
hen. He priced the fowl for the glver' &
sake and took great care Of her. He
clipped her wings and she was given
the freedom OF the ship.
An experiment was tried. The hen
was put on a banana diet. After a.
days feeding upon bananas this ordi-
nary looking Jamaica hen wandered
into the room of the third engineer
and soon afterward left the place
elucking cheerfully. She had left up-
on lounge an egg the size and color
Of small ripe banana.
When asked IL the hen continued
laying banana shaped eggs. Capt. Pet
tersen excused himself on the plea
that he had TO look after unloading his
cargo.
