A Tribute From Manila.

Tie following notice of the death Of
Capt. W, B. Barker, is clipped from the
Manila, Cablenews, which was sent to
DR., Fcatherston by RevJ A Randolp. a
former resident Of Macon, but now a
chaplain in the army, stationed in the
PHILIPPINES:
The news of the death Of Cap ain
Barker, the United States Army qua
termaster at Nagasaki, will come as a
shock to many Americans. He was one
of the most loved men in the army. To
travellers on the army transport he was
the truest friend and adviser a hum
dred times he softened the grief Of i'll
and downcast American women who
came to him for help and as a host to
other hundreds he was generosity and
thoughtfulness themselves
Captain Barker had a distinguished
career in the Confederate army He
went into the struggle as a boy, and in
his southern home he was one Of the
famous figures OF war days. In Cuba
just before the Spanish war when recon-
censtration had made intense suffering
he spent his entire income to feed the
starving. He was foremost in securing
the liberty of Senorita Evangelina Cis-
nerosy Cosio who escaped form a prison
in Havana and fled to New York. His
life was a rare example Of geniality,
courtesy and u~nselfshness. Peace to
his ashes,

Some interesting expert figures
for the last fiscal wear are pre-
5ented by the Manufacturers
Record of Baltimore. Among
exports exclusively from the
south it Includes Cotton, $379,-
965.0l4; cottonseed oil, SIS
l25,SO2, cottonseed cake and
meal. $13,897,177 naval stores,
6,106,6 43' phosphates, 6,SSG,-
pa. Commenting on these fig
ures, the Chicago Record-Herald
says This makes a total of
S45l, 9S0,S1l, and that alone
was nearly one-third of all our
domestic exports. But besides
the articles named, the south
exports other products which it
raises or manufactures III com
mon with other parts of the
country-timber tobacco, petro-
leum, cotton goods, provisions,
grain, coal, cattle, fruits, iron
and steel, and wood manufac-
lures. leather-and its share of
such exports sroughly estimated
at $lS3,000,0 900. Hencea total
Of $614, 900, 900, or Al per cent.
of the value Of all the exports of
the country. The figures prove
the wealth of southern fields,
and unquestionably cotton is
still king among our exports.
The value of exports of raw cot
ton alone exceeded the value of
the combined exports of bread
stuff, cattle, hogs and sheep, pro-
visions and mineral oils. 1t was
almost three times as great as
the value,of all our iron and
steel exports, and two-thirds as
great as the vaeue of all our
manufactured exports. With
such a staple and with it's gains
in new industries, the south is
certainly entitled to feel fairly
we'll satisfied.

But. after all, the worse danger

The code commissioners have for
warded the dummy copies of the code
to the legislature, throughout the state.
Through the kindness of Mr.. H. H.
Brooks, Ir;, member of the lower house
from this county, our attention has
been called to one very radical change
in the states policy, regarding the
working of convicts on the farm in
stead OF in prison walls, as formerly
1t has been demonstrated to be N every
respect more satisfactory The exper-
iment has been successful. The COM
missioners therefore thought that the
conduct and management of the peni-
Tertiary should be symtematized and
thoroughly sa'oguarded so as to best
conserve the interest Of the state and
the welfare Of the convicts. To thai
end it has been made a department of
the state, under the management Of a
superintendent elected by the people.
and all the convicts are required 10
work on the state farm in Sunfower
county.
This was the only recommendation
to the legislature and it will be optionsl
with them as to whether it will be made
a law of theland. Mr., Brooks, informed
the BEACON that he would bein favor
Of the policy recommended by the code
commission.

A misery's SAVINGS.

million dollars from a grammar
school principals salary, rang
ing from 81, 500 to 5000 a year
for fifty wears, is the remarkable
achievement Of Prof, Alpheus Du
Bots Of New York.
1t is an achievement as mys-
terious 70 the ordinary mind as
the rapid accumulation by some
public officials whose salaries
are less than their cost of living.
Three thousand dollars a year
for fifty years aggregates $780,
,000 less than half Il mil
lion.
Yet a reference to the interest
table will show that the feat
which seems so extraordinary,
if not impossible, may be accom-
plished very easily.
Nothing accomulates faster
than money at compound inter
est
Ten dollars saved every year
and invested at 5 per cent. will
amount to ST 900 in thirty-6ve
years, and $4,000 laid aside from
a salary of $4,000 and allowed
to accumulate for forty years
will grow to about $250.000.
Another ten years will put it
very near the half million mark.
Du Bots had the advantage for
many years Of 7 per cent. legal
interest.
So the wonder is, not that his
modest salary proved the seed
of big fortune but that anyone
well paid for years should come
to old age with empty hands.
Prof. Du Bots was no mere
miserly reclusc. He mixed with
men and women and was a good
deal of a dandy, fastidious to
the last. He had some reputa-
ton as poet and musician. In
him many Of the finer feelings
had some development,
Nevertheless, his soul was
dwarfcd to the littleness of
money. His first thought was
for money always-not for the
fascination OF making it on a
grand scale in some financial
game, not for the JOY of creating
it out Of the earth or sky or sea
for the blessing of mankind, but
for the small and evil satisfac-
ton Of hugging to himself all
that came to his hands.
He who sacrifices the love and
companionship of wife and child
for the sake of money may
amass millions, but p%auperizes
his soul,
He who for the sake of saving,
denies himself of the riches of
sympathy and helpfulness and
alienates himself in spirit from
his fellows is the poorest man in
the world.
The miser is the mcanest of
men, for while he lives solely for
self he gets less out of life than
any other man. He has money
but denies himself the things
money can buy. In making
money the end, instead of the
means, of lite he narrows his
purposes and achievements down
to nothingness
Unfortunately the dividing line
between the thrifty saving and
miserly meanness is not always
