Berlin, Oct. 12.-Germany is beginning
to understand the Kaiser's fury at the
publication of the Hohenlohe memoirs.
The public was at first surprised at the
monarch's anger, taking the view ,1hat
the work reflected decided credit on tlim.
The appearance Of fuller details Of twill
helms dealing with Bismarck. and es-
pecially the quotation OF his threat TO
lmprison the Iron Chancellor IN the fort
ress Of spandu has wrought 4 woTtder-
ful change in the trend of thought.
Political experts are beginning to eoap-
lecture that the real purpose OF the pub
lication Of such Objectionable chapters in
the fatherland's inmost history IS TO TN
dermine the Kaiser's influence and put
an end 10 the aUtocratic power he has
welded since Bismarek's overthrow.
On no other ground can the matter be
explained The incident may be truly de-
scribed as the sensation OF the decade in
Germany.
II has been an open secret IN court
circles for some time that the Kaiser IS
being combated by a powerful political
clique. II includes a brilliant array Of
princes. grand dukes. generals. Gdmirals,
and editors. who working together, have
managed to SOW the seeds Of discomfort
in all classes with WHhelm's methods OF
government.
His Rage IndescrfbabIe.
London, Oct 12.-Dispatches from Ber-
lin represent the Kaiser's rage over the
indiscreet barring Of secrets as being ab-
solutely indeseribable. One correspondent
asserts that the Kaiser has been COM
piIing his own version Of his feud with
Prince Bismarck and possibly his reply
TO the memoirs viii take the form Of the
publication Of this and his own accounts
OF other matters narrated in the mem
oirs. some of which have deeply offended
the courts Of 81. Petersburg and London.
According 10 the AugSburger Zeituug.
Chancellor Won Buelow has ordered dis
/ ciplinary measures against Prince Alex
! ander Hohenlohe FOR permitting the pub
iication Of the memoirs. following as a
/ precedent the case Of Or Geffckeu. Who

CULTyATING THE CHILD.
How Any Trait May Be Fixed in
Normal Human Being.

There is not a single desirabls at
tribute which, lacking IL a, plant, snay
not be bred into it. Choose What i'm
provement you wish in a flower, a
fruit or tree and by crossing. selec-
ton. cultivation and persistence you
can fix this desirable trait irrevocably.
Pick out any trait you want in your
child. granted that he is normal
child shall speak Of the abnormal
later-be it honesty, fairness, purity,
lovableness, Industry, thrift, what not.
Bv surrounding this child with sun
shine from the sky and your oFn
heart, by giving the closest comnu-
nion with nature, by feeding them
we'll balanced, nutritious food, by Civ
inc them all that is implied in health
full environmental influences, and by
doing all in love. you can thus cult
vate in this child and fix there for all
their life all of these traits. Naturally
not always to the full in all cases at
the beginning Of the work, for heredi-
ty will make itself felt first, and, as in
the plant under improvement, there
will be certain strong tendencies to
reversion to former ancestral traits;
but, in the main, with the normal
child. YOU can give him all these
traits by patiently, persistently, guild
ing him in these early formative years.
And, on the other side, give him foul
air to breathe, keep him in dusty
factory or"an unwholesome school
room or a crowded tenement up un-
der the hot roof; keep him away from
the sunshine, take away from him mu-
sic, and laughter and happy faces;
cram his little brains with so-called
knowledge, all the more deceptive and
dangerous because made so apparent
" adaptable to his young mind; let
him have associates in his hours out
of school, ard at the age of 10 you
have fixed in him the opposite traits.
He is on his way to the gallows. You
have perhaps seen prairie fire sweep
through the tall grass across a plain.
Nothing can stand before it, it must
burn itself out. That is what happens
when you let the weeds grow up in a
child's life, and then set fire to them

A Tribute to Southern Cooks.

It is related that an American woR-
an, transplanted to England and
anxious to live comfortably after the
American style, finds that in order
TO do so she must send for a Virginia
cook to preside over the kitchen.
The New York Mail tells the story
and in so doing takes occasion to pay
81 tribute to southern cooking:
s Probably" says the Mail, s.she
vearns for chicken a Ia Maryland,
;yumbo soup, terrapin and canvas
backs with the home touch to them,
and an occasional Sally Lunn. Even
q real Virginia hoecake would un-
loubtedly taste good in the land Of
anderdone roast beef and the opulent
plum pudding
Then comes the Mails confession
Of the superiority of southern cookery
and its explanation.
'Natiye southern cookery, in the
hands Of a real mistress of the art,
is better than any other kind of
American Cookery" it remarks:
This can be confessed in the north
without shame, for there is a real
reason for it. Southern cookery has
more traditions. more historical con-
ttnuity, behind it than northern
cookery. Grinding want and Puritan
abstemiousness combined to stamp
out old fashioned English cookery in
New, England, putting nothing in its
place, and the disappearance of the
Dutch themselves as distinctive peo-
pie wrecked the viands Of Holland in
this State, preventing the develop
ments of anything characteristic in the
New York cuisine. Presumably the
Quakers, as contemners of the
worlds weaknesses and appetites, paid
no particular attention to cookery in
Pennsylvania. But in Virginia the
case was entirely different. The peo-
pie there continued to eat we'll from
the start. They found abundance Of
native game. They cultivated the arts
and graces of hospitality. They had
slaves. and they taught such Of
those saves as they found fit for
household service to compound good
dishes quite regardless Of the cost Of
the ingredients. They engrafted upon
the cuisine of the Cavaliers certain
Indigenous preparations which have
stood the test of time. These are
worthy to be transported back to old
England

Gen. Willie Jones, chairman Of the
State Democratic Executive Commit
teey who has been visiting in Savan-
nah is quoted by the Morning News as
saying:
..W. W. Lunpkin has announced
himself as a candidate to the United
States senatorship in opposition to

eral impression is that Mr.. Tillman

Senator Tillman is stronger with
the pepole OF South Carolina than he
ever was. The best element of the

of physicians that Mr.. o'Malley's
health is poor, and that his life will
be jeopardized by further imprison-

based upon an article in the Item about

Sleep Without Drugs.

Starting with the proposition that
blood flows out Of the brain when one
goes to sleep, DR.. John V. Shoemaker
offers some hints to sufferers from
sleeplessness. Drugs act temporarily
but in the end prove injurious. TO
quote from a recent article in the Sat
urday Evening Post:
Distractions OF the mind are excel
lent remedies for insomnia. It is Of
ten a good idea to send a nervous
patient to the play, the opera or the
minstrels. His attention is called
away from himself and his troubles;
he comes home and goes peacefully to
sleep. Nor is the effect Of music to
be despised. It has a, tendency to
sooth irritable brain cells, and in many
instances I have known it to produce
most happy results The use Of water
outside and inside Of the body is neg
lected There is a great deal in the
old fashioned water cure, though
charlatans once brought it into dire
put. The next time you suffer from
insomnia take hot bath and swallow
a bowl Of water as hot as you can
drink it. The two together will make
your skin act, stimulate your circula-
ton, lull and quiet your brain. Hard
ly will you lie down before you will
find yourself falling asleep.
The magic effects Of hot footbath
in putting restless brain to sleep are
we'll known, but that remedy is not
always convenient A hot drink car
usually be had, and with no other aid
stubborn insomnia may often be cured
in children and grown persons. Eric
ton on the spine or at the back of the
neck by rubbing will induce sleep, but
the simplest Of all expedients to WOO
the drowsy god are a high rest for the
head and plenty of fresh air in the
room.

COURT THE LIGHT.

Neither grown people or children
thrive in dark places. In this re
spect they are like plants. No pot
ted plants will grow in the house un-
less they are placed in the light Of a
sunshiny window. 1t is strange that
people dare to sleep in dark rooms
where daylight never penetrates, and
much stranger that. they dare to live
IL such quarters.
When compelled to work or live
a large part Of the time in rooms
artihcially lighted one: should make
it a point to be in the sunshine every
day if possible Sunshine is a good
cure for dyspepsia. No animal and
no plant can properly digest food in
the dark The truth Of this asser-
ton can be readily determined by a
little experiment.
A potato placed in a dark cellar
with a little ray Of light will sprout
and make an effort to grow toward
the light. Make a larger opening
for the light to enter and see how
the sprouts will longingly stretch to-
ward the light, but how pale the
color and how sickly the plant. No
matter how often you water the plant
or enrich the ground in its dark stu
alton it will not thrive. It will al
ways remain a poor, sickly sprout or
plant. But give it sunlight and see
the wonderful change that takes
place.
Grair that grows under trees does
not grow we'll or fill out, although
the soil under the tree is richer per-
haps than the soil outside the shelter
of the tree. Nothing will flourish
away from the light.
And to go from the material to-
the spiritual, dark deeds and thoughts
are responsible for many puny, un-
devloped body. Live in the sunlight
Of strength and purity. = Boston

EXPLOSION IN CAMDEN.
Seven Men Narrowly Escape Death in
Accident at Camden-The Town
Without Electric Lights or Ice.

Camden, June 30.-Shortly aIler "
O'Clock this morning one Of the man
boilers of the Camden Water, Light
and Ice company's plant exploded
with terrific force and completely de-
nolished the entire plant.
Although there were seven men
working in the buildings which were
DESTROYED ct the time~of the explosion,
not one received a scratch. Two of
them had just a minute before the ex-;
plosion been working on top Of the
boiler and had hardly more than got
ten down and out of the boiler room
when the accident happened. The
Thoroughly up-to-date. model plant,
which was practically new, and which
furnished lights for the city OF Cam
den and most Of the ice which is used
here. is a complete wreck. Part of
the ice plant was blown so. feet over
the Southern railways track and
the big tank Of the Standard Oil com
pany. The boiler that exploded was
hurled high in the air over the South
ern depot to point six or seven feet
from where it stood. A big 10 by II
brace from the main building was
dashed through the roof Of the South
ern depot. Some pieces Of timber were
thrown in the creek nearby the Her
,nitage cctto11 mill and brick fell in
showers two block away.> The South
ern depot was not damaged, although
only a short distance away. The oil
house OF the Standard Oil company
was wrecked and the big tank was
all but turned over.
The plastering in several houses in
Camden and Kirkwood was cracked
and it is said some windows were
broken. A physician who was making
a call five miles in the country heard
md felt the explosion distinctly.
supt. Burdell says that the explo-
sion was due to a defective place in
che boiler giving way under pressure.
Mr.. C. E. Boynton. the company's
manager, estimates that it will take
about three months to rebuild the
plant. There will therefore be no elec-
tric lights for some time to come, and
ice will be an imported luxury-Spe-
efAl to State.
