THE HOUSE or THE FUTURE.
Concrete Blocks Becoming Popular
Buildings will Stand for Ages.

1t is only within the last few years that
concrete has been used as house building
material. A number uf large firms in
the United States are now manufactur.
ing concrete blocks, called reinformed
concrete, for use in place OF bricks or cut
stone. Another form OF this compare.
lively new building material is armored
concrete, for the building Of huge bridges
or other large solid structures. In this
work the structure is "armored" with
steel rods and the soft concrete is poured
into moulds around the rods and allowed
to harden. Notable instances of recent
armored concrete construction are the
great railroad bridge across the Missis.
sippi river at Thebes, ILL.,, opened to
traffic only few months ago, and the
new Mckinley High school building in
st. Louis. The Thebes bridge is one OF
the wonders of modern construction.
Building houses with concrete blocks
is a simple method. The blocks are
moulded by machinery made for the pur.
pose, in whatever size and pattern may
be desired. They are then laid like
stone or brick and cemented with mortar.
The Museum of Arts at the Lewis and
Clark exposition is made OF concrete
blocks. On the grounds are several
smaller buildings, put up by exhibitors,
of the same construction. The visitor
may see the process of making the
blocks, there being several concerns at
the exposition which turn them out
every day. The common black sand, 80
abundant in the western country, is
used in connection with cement, and the
blocks harden so that they are as solid
as natural stone.
1t is claimed by some scientists that
the great pyramids OF Egypt, which have
withstood the wear and tear OF centuries,
are built OF concrete instead of stone.

in the brotherhood OF man ?

If he "discrimuases between the real
people cannot discriminate between the
false and the real? Does he imagine that
they will fail to place proper estimate
upon the ~abbaih-day pretenses OF one
who during his week day career preys
upon the weak and helpless? Does he
think the people cannot "discriminate
though an effort is made in a government
publication To bolster up the false?
Surely "his method of giving may be
said to be discriminating" Is it unfair
to say that Rockefeller places his "bene.
factions where they will do the most
good-to Rockefeller? Is it unfair to say
that his gifts are distributed with the
view OF making public opinion more toll
Grant of the infamous system through
which he has obtained his enormous
wealth?
Rockefeller is the foremost representa-.
tive of the system that IS preyinK upon
the people and against which public sem
timent is now being directed by patriotic
teachers. Recently Rockefeller's attor-
neys have been kept busy in the effort to
paint their client as patriot in the ac'
quirement Of wealth and philanthl opst
in its distribution. For the purpose of
de"eiving the public Rockefeller needs,
just now, all the endorsements he can
get. 1t is not at all surprising that his
paid attorneys give him certificates OF
character; but. it is AN insult to the in-
] telli4ence OF the people. as well as an
assumption of authority, for the 'epubli-
can administration to attempt. through
the medium OF a government publication,
to give certificate of high character to
the arch conspirator among all those
who conspi'e in restraint of trade; to
the chief monopolist among those who
seek to establish monopoly; to the most
persistent and painstaking plunderer oi
the people.
How effective will be the republican
administrations campaign against
monopoly" so long as fulsome praise, in
the guise of government reports, is given
to the greatest monopolist Of them all!
What a shame that Rockefeller should
be held up as patron of education when
in every county in the United States
there are men and women who have
given more of their time and, in proper.
ton to their means, more money to the
cause OF education than Rockefeller has.
In every community there are people
who at great sacrifice are giving their
time as unpaid school directors and pa
irons, but they are forgotten. while the
relatively email services Of the oil king
are agnified.-Commoner.

eLiquozonen is Called POISON

For the benefit of many in Bourbon
county who are known to be taking
''Liquozone" we publish the article
below, taken from the Lexington
Herald of Wednesday:
Unless labeled "Poison,n or to be
used only for external purposes,
''Liquozone'' will be sold no more in
Lexington, according to the ruling of
the Board of Health at it's meeting
last night.
1t is claimed that the ingredients
of ''Liquozone" are injurious, and in
two know cases has caused immedi-
ate death.
Following communications from the
Boards of Health in San Francisco
and New York City, the Board of
Health of this city began an investi-
cation, which ended in the chemist
of the Kentucky Food Control, j. O.
La Bach, making an analysis of
'Liquozone.n
| Health Officer Simmons read the
analysis of Chemist La Bach at the
meeting last night, and it was unani-
mously decided to adopt the same
means as had been adopted in San
Francisco, to forbid the sale of the
medicine in any form, unless it is
labeled poison, or only for external
use.
1t was then decided that DIR. Sim
mons call on the druggists in the city
and tell them the decision of the
Board of Health, and warn them
against the sale of it.
The following is the analysis of
Chemist La Bach:
"Dr. N. R. Simmons, Health Off,
Ger, Lexington, Kentucky.
s'Dear Sir
"The following is the analysis of
the sample of 'Liquozone' you handed
me on the twentieth of this month:

'There were traces of organic mat
ter in the dried non-volatile matter.
The ash consisted mostly of calcium
sulphate with traces of iron. did not
find any free oxygen or ozone.
Liquozone is nothing more than a
solution of acids in water, pint of
the liquid could be made at a cost of
less than one cent. 1t might be used
as disinfectant of drains, etc., but
think its internal use would be harm
full. 1t is past all reasons that one
remedy could be capable of benefiting
the long list of diseases as advertised
by the manufactures of 'Liquozone'
has any special merits even as a dis
infectant. Yours truly,

good trade.
Our school is in flourishing condition

Mr.. Ham, an aged gentleman from
Wisconsin, is stopping in our midst for

neighborhood.
G. w. Smith is looking pleasant, for he
gets to attend many weddings-one most

internal War In fitzgerald.

Fitzgerald, Ga, March 11.--Because of
the division of the social element into
Northern and Southern factions, the
business harmony of this place is seri-
ously menaced. 1t is alleged that the
Southern element has organized with the
intention of ostracising the Northern ele-
ment, or at least compelling them to
move in separate circle.
The Northern element, It is claimed, is
not openly organized, but there is taoit
agreement among them, and with the
exception of perhaps half dozen indi-
viduals there is disposition to stand
firm and refuse patronage or recognition
to the other side. The unique condition
of affairs has progressed beyond the
ludicrous, and is affecting rious lines
of business, one heavy property owner
having withdrawn his patronage from
the local insurance firm, the wife of
whose manager recently entertained the
opposite set, and many purchasers are
sending out of town for all necessary
supplies rather that patronize firms con-
nected with the movement.

A Tribute to mr. strlbIIns.

Seneca, March 14.-For many years no
event has occurred in Seneca which cast
"a deeper gloom and more profound sor-
row upon her people, old and young, rich
and poor, white and colored, than the
death of j. w. Stribling, which occurred
at his residence Monday morning, Febru-
ary 9th. He was in the Goth year of his
age.
While abler pens will tell of virtues,
record his good deeds and describe his
amiable Christian character, I cannot re-
frain from adding my humble tribute to
the memory of good and pure man,
whose spotless life and Christian charac-
ter are worthy of all imitation. His
public life as Clerk of Court for sixteen
years, his admirable career as soldier
in our civil war, and his integrity as
cashier of the Seneca Bank for number
of years, are we'll known to your readers,
but his exalted qualities, the tenderness
of his heart and purity of his soul shone
brightest in the moro private relations OF
life, in the sacred precincts of homo,
surrounded by those near and dear tc
him, among his friends. The gentleness
of his demeanor and his tender ir5erest
in the children seemed to say, "Suffel
little children to come unto me and for.
bid them not, for of such is the king
dom of heaven"

The immense throng of relatives and

The immense throng of relatives and
friends who attended his funeral and fol-
lowed his remains to their last resting
place attested in plainest language the
esteem in which he was held, while the
many beautiful floral tributes placed
upon the oasket by loving hands aud sor-
rowing hearts told of their love and
grief. If good deeds, charitable acts and
the faithful discharge of all the duties of
life entitle one to that rich inheritance
which is promised the righteous IN the
home of eternal peace, surely the friends
may exclaim: 80 death, where is thy
stingp o grave, whore is thy victory"
And many will be the stars that glitter
in the heavenly crown which will adorn
his brow as reward for kind words,
gentle deeds and Christian service on
earth. l.. 81. Cary.

Owens, near Walhalla, was the scene of
very happy event, when, in the pres
ence of o few intimate friends and rela-
tives, Louis Rankin and Miss Theodoca
Owens were united in marriage by Rev.

sively performed by Mr.. Holland, after
which the happy couple we're the re-
cipients of many hearty congratulations.

young, it is evident that he has a bright
future before him. He is in all respects
worthy of the fair prize he has won.
Mrs. Rankin as Miss Owens was one Of

sessing ali those qualities that constitute
a noble Christian woman. We join with

News and Courier Enterprise.

1t is understood that the News and
Courier company has closed contract
for new Hoe Press, which will print.
when occasion demands, twenty four
pages at once, folding and counting each
paper at the same time. This necessi-
tates the purchase of far more extensive
stereotyping outfit, and in addition to
this, the company is tearing down the
OLD, and building new two-story build
ing to give more room in the composition
and make up room. Work on the new
building began this week, and a cotraot
with the Hoe company was completed
Saturday. The press will be shipped at
once, and 1t is hoped to get it in opera
tion in about 60 days.
