I'm being in many cases nothing short
of marvellous. Travellers in Rormania
describe native gatherings which,
they say, exceed anything of the kind
ever witnessed anywhere The music
contains qualities of pathos, sweet
ness and suggestiveness which draw
the tears from all eyes.
They have also been from the first
serpent charmers of no mean ability:
but most noted for their occupations
or accomplishments, as one may
choose to consider it, is undoubtedly
their skill in palmistry and their pre-
tensions to fortune telling, both by
this method and by the aid of cards.
This latter may be dismissed at once
as trickery, but the former must be
ueated with a larger degree of con-
slderation and respect, although its
exact value must be determined by a
court OF experts, not by the ,niniti-
ated. The hand is admitted by all to
be the most important member of the
body. and became the object of pre-

NEW SOUTHERN INDUSTRIES.

The current issue Of the Chattanoo-
ga Tradesman under mailing date OF
October !, presents its quarterly re-
view of southern industrial progress
for the three months period ending
with September 80, in which most
gratifying condition of business is
shown. The total of new industries
established during this quarter is l.
$40, against 1868 for the correspond
ing quarter last year, an increase OF
172. In the number of new indus
tries for the quarter woodworking
plants lead with 23S, and next in nu-
merical importance are congresses
and gins, of which there We're Ill.
The record shows "a new mines and
quarries opened, 73 electric light
and power plants established, 20 devel-
opment and improvement companies
organized, SO new natural gas and oil
concerns. etc The following are for
Arkansas for the past week:
Little Rock-$15, 900 mining compa-
ny.
Forrest City-Telephone company.
Fort Smith--$50, 900 investment
company.
Jonesboro will soon own the light
and water plants of that city. Munic,
ipal ownership Of the public utilities
is to be tried on the grounds that
when provided by private corporations
they come too high, which is probably
true, but unless Jonesboro excludes
graft from the management and oper-
alton of its gas and water plants the
people may discover that gas and
water is costing them as much as
when furnished by private corpora
itons, and probably more. Municipal
ownership is all right. if kept free
of politics; fer when politics creep
in, graft is sure 10 follow.

A SPECIAL MEETING,
Machinists of Columbia Lodge Called
TODAY

A call has been issued for special meet
| Ing of Columbia Lodge of Machinists at
~ O'Clock this morning at the lodge room
| on Pennsylvania avenue between Sd and
4th streets southeast. The purpose of the
meeting is to take further action on the
recent order of Secretary of the Navy

day in the Washington navy yard, 1t is said
Columbia Lodge is said to have an active
membership of more than 1850 men, en-
bracing practically all the machinists In
the naval gun factory here.
President Emmett L. Adams of Columbia
Lodge, speaking to a Star reporter last
night, said there is no intention or dispo-
sition on the part of the machnists to
antagoniZe the government or to set them
selves up against any Of the recognized
laws OF the land.
"and we do not consider the recent order
of the Secretary of the Navy as final We
intend to use every means in our power TO
secure what believe to be our simple
rights in this matter. We realize that per-
suasion on our part has failed and we must
therefore resort to other methods along
lines that may be suggested at the special
meeting. What those means may be | cam
not foretell, but they will be conducted
peacefully and In order.
We cannot be intimdated by the brag-
gadocio and threats of naval officers and
Others added President Adams, nor can
we be swerved from our purpose of eX-
hausting every legal means to secure JUS
tice, and We believe in the end 1t will be
accorded us"
The meeting this forenoon promises to be
one of the largest In the history of Column
