Our Greatest Arsenal.

During the Civil War Rock Island
was called into unexpected service. At
the very outbreak of hostilities the
island suggested itself as suitable
place to care for the prisoners Of war,
and extensive barracks were construct
ed, with a hospital, officers quarters
and other necessary buildings. Over
10000 confederate prisoners were con-
fined there.
Horace was indeed wise when he
counseled to prepare for war in times
of peace, but that advice was disre-
garded, and when, In 1898, war was
declared with Spain, it found us I'M
prepared, but the Rock Island Arsenal
promptly responded to the call. The
force of wOrkmen was increased from
500 to nearly 1900, and the necessary
articles were poured out in like pro-
portion. Even then it was Id days
before the soldiers could be made
ready for action.
Had Spain been in a position to take
advantage of the delay, our victory
might have been less decisive.
1t is not the object of the arsenal
to encourage war, but to prepare for
il when it becomes inevitable; in the
words of Washington: ITO be pre-
pared for war Is the most effectual
means of preserving peace."-Four-

during the great gold rush, was in st.
Louis for a short time last week Mr..
Wainwright, who is nearly so years
old. came here from Philadelphia,
where he had been visiting a grand
son. He was met here by a nephew,
Frank Blair, of Chicago, and the two
dined at the Planters and later de-
parted together for Oakland.
Mr.. Wainwright is active and able
TO travel alone He made the trip
from Oakland to Philadelphia alone
and returned as far as st. Louis,
where his nephew met him. The two
will finish the journey together.
Mr.. Wainwright grew reminiscent
last night when he was seen in the
lobby of the Planters.

GERMANY PREPARES FOR WAR
Gives Rush Orders for Large Num-
Der of Cars.

Berlin, Jan. 4.-The railway admin
istration placed orders last week for
20, 900 freight cars, at cost of $50
600, 900, with manufacturers of five
countries, STIMULATING delivery by the
middle of February. Besides utilizing
the car works of Germany, the con-
tracts were distributed among makers
in Belgium, Holland, Switzerland and
Italy, which would not have been done
unless some reason for haste exists.
Inquiries made regarding the reasons
for urgency resulted in obtaining the
statement that the ordering of the ca
was a precautionary measure, the gem
eral staff desiring to be ready to move
troops if necessary by the first of
March. This is only proper measure
of prudence, it was arfimed, in view
of the extensive military arrangements
going on in France, which, among
other dispositions, include the move
ment toward the German frontier of
six regiments of artillery, or $50 guns.

Justice in those days was rapid

always the case, bad element was
attracted by the gold fields and this
element lived by robbing the more in

ishable by death, and the guilty man
was generally discovered and paid the
penalty.
Il remember one incident that was
somewhat amusing and yet rather
gruesome. A worthless chap by the
name Of Billings, located near our
camp. He had pretty wife and two
children, but he was a brute pure and
simple. He never did a bit of work
and yet he seemed to have money
enough to buy whisky, and then after
getting drunk he would beat his WIFE
A committee of the reliable citizens of

Just before the sentence was to be

how she was to get along without some

only thing to do was to get her an
other husband. Well, Billings was

The CONFESSION OF JET
GEes Minute Details Of Feudist AS
sassination in Kentucky of Mar
cum, Cockrill and Cox.

A special from Cynthiana, KY,
says: The confession of Curtis JetC
gives the details of the assassination
of James B. Marcum and James Cock
rll and also throws new light on
the murder of DR.. J. B. Cox, the three
crimes having been committed dur
ing the reign Of feudism in Breat.
HIT county.
The confession is authorized by
Jett's attorneys. Jet says he, John
Smith and John Abner killed James
Cockrill; that Robert Deaton went
after Abner and Smith to aid in the
murder, and that Gilbert Hargis, Jas.
Hargis, Ed Callahan, jesse Spicer and
Bill Bntton are the men who formed
the conspiracy.
Starting out with these statements,
he enters extensively into details of
the murder, and lays bare every fea-
ture Of the conspiracy and the events
before and after the murder.
He then confessed to the murder Of
James B. Marcum, who, he says, was
killed at the instance Of James Har-
gis, and Ed Callahan, declaring that
the pistol with which he did the shoot
Ing was furnished him by Callahan
for the purpose. He says B. ]. Erwin
todd the truth about the killing.
Jett's statement in regard to the
assassination Of DR.. Cox is little less
sensational than his assertions in re-
gard to the other murders. Ne says
he was at the Jail and heard three
shots, after which the telephone rang.
He went to Alex Hargis' house and
Hargis asked what, the shooting was,
Jett telling the story in these words:
Il said / did not know, and Uncle
Alex said, Let's go down and see
If Jim or any of them are hurt
Uncle Alex stopped at Jim's gar
den fence, / guess he was afraid to
run in, but I was fearless and did not
care, you know, and l went into the
yard, and in the shadow of the smoke
hOuse-the moon was bright as day
I shall never forget it-stood Ed Cal
lahan, Jim Hargis, Bill Britton, Jesse
Spicer and Ebert Hargis, with two
shotguns; l saw no pistols"
Jett closes his confession by say
Ing that he has told the plain truth,
nothing more and nothing less He
relieves Alex Hargis Of any com.

Charge Against Liquor Dealers.
At a recent meeting of the tax com
mittee Of the Atlanta city council, sen.
sational charges we're made against
Blutenthal & Bickert, wholesale liquor
dealers, by Attorney Lyon Johnson,
when it was decided, after considera-
BILE discussion, that the present IL
cense tax on wholesale liquor dealers
be increased from $500 to $500 an
nually.
At the meeting referred to Attorney
Johnson, representing wholesale deal
ers opposed to the raising of the tax,
alleged that Bluthental & Bickert
were backing a trust organized to
crush the small dealers, and also char
acterized "Old Joe" whisky, one Of
the brands handled by this firm, as
being purely artificial, made of CO
logne spirits and colored with cara
mel.
Continuing Mr.. Johnson said: Il
want to say a word or two about the
quality of stuff this firm sells. Take
old Joe,' one Of their leading brands.
Only a short time ago, State Chemist
John NJ. McCandless was employed
by a party in South Carolina to ana
lyze this high class whisky, and here
is what he said I regard Old Joe
as a purely artificial whisky, manu-
featured from cologne spirits and col
ored with caramel In this connection
l may add that | am informed that
Bluthenthal &, Bicket use 5000 bar
rels of cologne spirits year, and doc
tor it up and call it whisky"
Mr.. Johnson concluded his attack
by recalling a raid which he stated
was made few years ago by the
United States government upon his
firm for the purpose of confscating
fraudulent liquors and liquors under
dishonest labels.
