Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1906-03-08

Lady equestriennes on Long
Island and in country cross roads
now take their early morning
rides in real trousers-not some
weak imitation, some divided
skirt or boomers but really for
true bre eches, such as men wear
when they ride.
In speaking of the Spanish
American war when some 300
men of this colony enlisted, we're
mustered into service and went
to the war, among them was
Arthur Collier, then a young
man in his teens-now stout,
broad shouldertd man one of our
night police. He was the young
soldier into whose hands Mother
Enterprise and Mrs. Dempsey
placed the flag which our boys
carried all through that war and
Collier brought it home with
him and today, his voice takes
OF caressing tone when he
mentions it. His greatest re-
gret is over the loss of his identi-
fi:atiou badge which we sent
from here apd he wore all thro
the war to have it stolen from
him by a curio friend in Ten
nesee.
A little 1ad-not much bigger
than a grain of wheat (6gurativ-
ely speaking) applied for a posi-
ton in the Enterprise Office.
B ing persistent he was granted
the privilege of his ability. When
the whistle blew for dinner on
his first day he put on his hat
and started home with the rest
OF the MEN. AS hesneared home
his strides became more lengthy
his hands delved deeper into his
pockets-his head took a higher
aud more independent tilt and
his little heels a louder echo on
the sidewalk. He was now a
wage Garner. He was a citizen
of this great commonwealth-he
was of more impo lance in the
world than ever before. He was
laborer ready to battle with the
world to the fullest capacity OF
his eleven short years. We said
nothing but did lot of thinking.
This boy was an exemplification
of the DIGNITY of labor. 1t had
tranformed the shrinking, timid
child into an independent, self
respecting citizen of the greatest
country in the world. There
was a grandeur about that little
freckled face boy-a spark of the
Divine-and yet we wished that
he was in school every hour of
the school year.

PLAN FOR LEASING.
Recommended by the Interior Depart
nent,

fnent.
Washington.-The Interior Depart
ment has submitted to Congress the
draft of a bill providing plan for leas-
ing public grazing lands of the United
States and recommended its passage.
The bill as drawn authorizes the sec
retary of the interior to withdraw from
public entry lands deemed by him de
sirable and to lease them for grazing
purposes, giving small stockmen pref
erence, for terms not exceeding five
| years, at rental to be fixed by the
! secretary.
At the expiration of the leases the
| secretary is to reclassify the lands and
exclude from the grazing area tracts
which should be subject to homestead
or other forms of entry.
The proceeds of the grazing fees
shall be turned into the reclamation
fund, to be used to carry on the work
upon projects which have been de-
cided desirable, but for which there is
insufficient money available in the re-
clamation fund.
In submitting the bill the Interior
Department called attention to the fact
| that number of irrigation en-
terprises have been found feasible, but
that the reclamation fund is not large
| enough to provide for all of these pro-
jects, and the suggestion is made that
the proceeds from the rental of graz
ing lands would not only provide such
funds, but would tend to preserve the
range and give opportunity for its i'm
provement. Among the projects men
toned by the department which might
be aided by the passage of the bill
are: Bear river, Utah; Grand river,
Colorado; Goshen Hole, Wyoming Du-
bois, Idaho, and Las Vegas, New Mex

WEATHER FORECASTS,
Will Soon Be Issued by Bureau a
Month Ahead.

New York.-Willis l.. Moore, chief
of the weather bureau at Washington,
announced Tuesday night at the din
ner of the Maritime Association that
the weather bureau might soon issue
forecasts of a whole month. Mr..
Moore had been jolled hard by Job E.
Hedges, when he arose and got per-
mission to add to his speech, already
delivered. He then said:
THE weather bureau believes that
for the first time in the history of me-
teorological science it has within its
grasp the scientific basis of long range
weather forecasting- that is, forecasts
of the character of the month to come.
THE details are not yet complete,
and the system will not be adopted for
several months to come.
''It may be possible, and l believe it
will be, to tell you New Workers and
members of the Maritime Exchange
before this time next year what the
character of the coming month will
be-"
Mr.. Moore said after the dinner that
he had not intended to make this an
nouncement at this time, but had
planned to give it first to the public
through the scientific publications.

GRAND LARCENY
CHARGED AGAINST OFFICER OF
NEW YORK LIFE.
POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS
Former Vice President Perkins Ar
rested for Paying company's Money
Into Republican CAMPAIGN Fund.

New York.-On a charge that his
connection with the contribution of
$4S,702.50 from the funds of the New
York Life Insurance Company to Cor.
nelius N. Bliss, treasurer of the Re.
publican national committee in the
campaign of 1904, constituted grand
larceny in the first degree, George w.
Perkins, a member of the firm of ].
p. Morgan & Co. and until recently
first vice president of the New York
Life Company, was arrested Weines-
day on a warrant issued by Magistrate
Moss.
When a detective went to serve the
warrant upon Mr.. Perkins he found
that writ of habeaus corpus had al
ready been obtained from Justice
Greenbaum of the State Supreme
Court, and the matter was immedi.
ately taken out of the magistrates
hands.
Mr.. Perkins appeared before Justice
Greenbaum, and at the request of his
counsel the hearing in the case was ad-
journed until Friday Mr.. Perkins was
paroled in the custody of his personal
attorney, Lewis A. Delafield.
The warrant for Mr.. Perkins arrest
was applied for by District Attorney
jerome. Magistrate Moss would not
act, however, until affidavits were filed
in the case. These were presented to
him Wednesday. They wer signed by
Darwin p. Kingsley, vice president of
the New York Life; Edmund D. Ran
dolph, treasurer of the company, and
Thomas A. Buckner, also a vice presl-
dent.
Mr.. Perkins counsel admitted to
Justice Greenbaum that Mr.. Perkins
had advanced the sum named to Mr.
Bliss upon the request of the late John
A. Mccall, president of the New York
Life Insurance Company, and was aft.
erward reimbursed through the action
of the companys finance committee.
1t was contended that Mr.. Mccall
had executive authority to order the
payment, and that if any crime was
committed it was participated in by
every member of the finance commit
tee present when the matter was acted
upon.

Trust to Nature.

A great many Americans, both men
and women, are thin, pale and puny, with
poor circulation, because they have ill
treated their stomachs by hasty eating
or too much eating, by consuming alco-
holic beverages, or by too close contine-
ment to home, office or factory, and in con-
sequence the stomach must be treated
In q natural way before they can rectify
their earlier mistakes. The muscles in
many such people, in fact in every weary,
thin and thin-blooded person, do their
work with great difficulty. AS a result
fatigue comes early, is extreme and lasts
long. The demand for nutritive aid is
ahead of the supply. To insure perfect
health every tissue, bone, nerve and
muscle should take from the blood GER
tain materials and return to it certain
others. 1t is necessary to prepare the
stomach for the work of taking up from
the food what is necessary to make good,
rich, red blood. We must go to Nature
for the remedy. There were certain
roots known to the Indians of this
country before the advent of the whites
which later came to tho knowledge Of
the settlers and which are now growing
rapidly in professional favor -Er the cure
of obstinate stomach and liver troubles.
These are found to be safe and yet GER
tain in their cleansing and invigorating
effect upon the stomach, liver and blood.
These are: Golden Seal root, Queens
root, Stone root Bloodroot, Mandrake
root. Then there is Black Cherry bark.

Military Pigeons.

An exhibition of an interesting char
Rcter was recently opened at Freud
richstrasse, says Berlin dispatch. A
feature of the show is the pigeon sec
ton. There are about 500 military
pigeons which bear the imperial eagle
on their wings. An idea of the work
performed by the pigeons is to be
found in the balloon section, where a
series of photographs is on exhibition.
These have been taken from balloons
with powerful cameras, and represent
the position of troops, batteries firing,
Notifications, etc.
A note explains that the photo
graphs when taken are confided to the
pigeons, which generally accompany
the aeronauts in their ascensions.
