decided to liqu;date the affairs Cf

certain legal formalities were
necessary, therefore the stock
holders are called for a general
meeting on July >, at which time
a new board of directors will be
elected, and when they assume
charge of the affairs, it is under
stood currently that board of
liquidators will be appointed to
speedily wind up the affairs Of the
company.
This corporation has been large
| ly instrumental in rle develop.
mcnt of the rice industry of this
section and has taken leading
part by establishing several irri-
eating canals. It owns the rice
mill of this city. When the de
preston in the rice market, follow
ed by the disasters in the fields,
came in rapid succession, it rem
dered ineffective very large invest
ments of the corporation. Farm
ers changed their sowing and irri
eating plants that cost thousands
of dollars were paralIzed. These
untoward events were the causes
of involving the concern.
In an interview with Mr.. Jules
Dreyfus, one Of the larger stock
holders, he said that the several
industrial plants of the corpora
ton would, in all probability, be
sold to home people who would
operate them. Among these
plants are the Rice Mill, Round
Bale Gin, Cotton Seed Oil Mill,
Soap Factory, Knitting Mill, all
located in this city; syrup mill
just below the city, gins at other
points and several irrigating
plants.
Mr.. G. l.. Widney, secretary of
the Corporation, when seen, said
he had no information to give for
publication at that time.
The company was capitalized at
sl25,OO and it's stock is distribu
ted among a large number of local
holders. At one time this stock
was valuable and Its holder was
considered fortunate, as large
dividends were paId i4afe'
amounts uf these dividends were
relnvestei. extending the scope

 New York, Sept. 21.-There has been another delay in the naming of fusion ticket to oppose the candidates of Tam many Hall in the coming municipal election. The fusion conference com mittee with representatives present from all anti-Tammany political organ izations with the exception of the Clt- izens union, met again tonight but adjourned until Monday next without reaching an agreement on names.
 The fusionists to-day sent letter to the citizens union inviting 1t to again join forces in the antiJTammany movement and declaring that none of the conditions which caused the with drawal of the citizens delegates will again appear in the deliberations of the fusion conference. A reply was receiv- ed from the union in which it was stat ed that owing to the late hour at which the letter of invitation was received it would be impossible for the unions delegates to join in the conference to- night. It is believed the citizens union will again be part of the fusion forces

Profitable and -Justlfiable Participation of fhe MutunI Life

New York, Sept. 21.-The ethics con- trolling the formation of underwriting syndicates are being extensively dis .cussed in connection with the testf- mony given the legislative investiga- ton committee. It is the consensus of opinion among those best qualified to judge that the record of the Mutual Life shows-first, that it's participation in such syndicates was amply justified by financial usages throughout the civ ilized world; second, that the results of such participation have inured to the benefit and profit of it's policyholders; third, that the occasional participation of some of the company's trustees in such syndicates was g. source of pro- portionate profit to the company. The testimony likewise proved that the Mutual Life has never entered into any joint accounts with bankers or brokers wherein profits on purchases or sales were divided,

NEW HAVEN DRIVING CLUB
FOURTH MATINEE OF THIS SEA-
 OyAT THE RAGE TRACK.

A Free-For-An-Race of Five Heats
 The Fine Weather and Outing En-
 jOyed by SpectatOFs-NOtes of Other
 Horses.
 The members of the New Haven Driving club held the fourth matinee of this season at the local race track yesterday afternoon. when the season able weather added to the pleasures of the horse fanciers, and others who were at the trotting park. According to the usual custom the club made no charge for admission or for the score cards which contained the names of all the horses in the races. The attendance was not large but would have been larger with O little advertising.
 The time for the races was not an- nounced from the judges stand, but was taken from outside watches, which in many cases did not agree. A num- ber of watches were held in the con- tests, and probably all persons who held them thought they were perfectly ac- curate as timers. In one case two watches showed four seconds difference in the time of a heat which was an illustration of the fact that many per sons are not adopts as horse timers.
 Between the heats Peter Strom gave his bay pacer, Patronia Princess, some exercise on the track, showing a 2:24 gait and the ability to go faster.
 B. s. Bradley stated that his horse had no preparation for the races of yesterday. He further announced that races in variety will be held on the Clinton avenue drive during the fall.
 With the exception of the free-for-all, the races were half mile heats, best two in three.

 He has been 8 wonderful horse, with almost human intelligence, and as game as ever existed; he has been the pet of this city and by many was consider ed the best on the speedway at either sleigh or wagon races.

Tho Valuation Of the Edwards Com

The Fall River strike has served 10
bring very forcibly to public attention
the strength Of the Southern compeu-
ton which New England cotton mills
ore now forced to contend with. For
that reason there has been DISPOSE
ton to go slowly with anything that
would make such competition any more
burdensome.
The Edwards Manufacturing Co. is
a potent factor in the prosperity Of
Augusta. and there is every reason why
tho most friendly relations should exist
between it's representatives and our
citizens generally. While this COM
many may well be asked to pay its
lust proportion of the public burdens.
il should at the same time be dealt
with i'm such fair and liberal spirit
AS shall assure it of the loyal good
wishes of the community in which il is
located.
Through the untiring efforts Of
Mayor Hichborn Il basis of compl.omies
on the question of the company's val
uation has been reached between the
company ana the city. which. if en-
dorscd by the voters. would seem to
be happy adjustment of the whole
matter.
The company is willing to pay taxes
on Il valuation of $1,000. 900. which it
claims is the fair cash value of its
plant. 1t will. moreover. for the sake
OF bringing about an anicable settle
mcnt Of existing differences. pay the
tax assessed against it for 1904 without
further protest.
BY this settlement the city would
make Il gain of about 100000 OH the
valuation of the plant over 1903. would
be relieved of long and expensive liti
cation whose outcome would ut best be
doubtful. and would preserve friendly
relations with Il great manufacturing
company whose operations in our city
have constituted d very vital element
in its progress and prosperity.
SO far as we have heard the PROPOSE
ton to be submitted to the voters of
our city. Tuesday evening. Jan. 81. has
met with very general approval. and
the indications are that it will en-
counter little, if any, opposition.

In Il story recently published i'll

Dictionary gives the definition of tn"
word lnrid as pale yellow; of "A pale.

tury dictionary defines it as pale
yellow. wan. CHASTITY" OF course the
writer of the story did not have the
correct meaning of the word lurid in
mind when he used it in the connec-
ton that he did. Most of us make the
same error. In an Augusta party of
about Il dozen people, of more than the
ordinary education. when asked to
give the definition of the word lurid
there was not one who did not give al
most exactly the opposite of the correct
meaning. calling it "vivid," "hashy,
bright" "iiery.' crimson" etc. 1t
is a word which most of us always use
in the wrong sense.

The chances of the conviction or
Judge Swayne by the Senate are grow
ing very small. To be sure. the House
has passed the case up to the Senate
but ii took only a majority vote to 90
this while a twO-thirds vote will be re-
uuired In the Senate for conviction.
The disposition on the part or the
Democrats to make it u party matter
has increased the prospect that the ac-

Justice in Florida.
