"S0UARE MEN AND ROUND MEN"

A speech made recently at the
"Sandy Greek Association" by
the Rev. j. w. Little, formerly
OF Lancaster, but now preaching
at Sanford, n. c., is attracting
no little attention. Mr.. Little
made unique division of man
kind into two classes, the "square
men and the round men," The
square man, he said, stands
four square. He has four cor
ners. You know which way he
faces. If he means you, you
know il. There is NOTHING q
sneaking or backhanded about
him. Not every one comes along
can turn him.
"The round man any one can
roll over. He faces in all direc
tions. He will not tell you what
he thinks. Ii he wishes TO saw
evil of you, lie will not say i,
out, but will iusinuate it. He is
on nobody's side and yet every
bodv's"
The newspapers commenting
on Mr.. Little's remarGs heartily
endorse his original views as to
man. The Greenwood Journal.
for example, says that he "comes
"a near expressing our ideas OF
what man should be as anv.
thing We have ever seem" The
Journal adds that Mr.. Little him.
self Is "square mau," aud from
our knowledge of the jealous
and indeIatigable evangel!s', We
are prepared to endorse our es
teemed contemporary classifica-
ton Of him. There's nothing lit
tie about Evangelist Little en-
cept, possibly, his name. He is
a man of striking originality and
possesses in marked degree the
power to bring men to realiza-
ton of their sinful ways. He
has accomplished untold good
throughout this country and we
trust that he may be blessed with
health and strength to continue
his useful work for many years to
come.

Ralways in AIaerlan Desert.

The opening OF the railroad from
South Oraso to Beehar, a distance OF
445 miles into the interior. was the
most interesting event of the year
1905. Considering the great dificul-
ties encountered, not the least of which
was the scarcity of water, the line
being entirely through a desert, the
construction was rapid. The last sec
ton, from Ben Zireg to Bechar, was
built in ten months, and the roadbed
is solid enough to permit of a speed
of fifty miles an hour. This section
is thirty-two miles long. The most
remarkable result of the building oi
this line has been the rapid paciiica-
tion of the country traYersed. At Ben

GOVERNOR
To Investigate Alleged
Brutality at Insane Asy-
lum Where Three Pa
tients Are Said to Have
Been Killed.

Norfolk, Neb., May 16.-Sensational
stories of alleged barbarous brutality
at the asylum for the insane here are
to be investigated by the state board Of
public lands and buildings. Specific
charges have been lodged with Cover
nor Mickey, which if proved true, will
show an almost incredible condition
OF affairs. In the statement filed with
the governor the names of three pa
tients, whose deaths are alleged to
have occurred from assaults of attend
ants are given, together with detailed
accounts of the manner in which they
died. Dr. Frank S. Nicholson, assist
ant superintendent and several of the
employees of the institution vOuch for
the truth of the charges. The three
men alleged to have been killed are:
Milton Shocllley, kicked by guards and
keepers, beaten and slammed in bath
tub, jabbed with a sharp broomstick,
head pounded against brick wall, died
of internal injuries, death reported as
epilepsy; John Prosser, aged SO, Slip
ped and fell TO the floor and angered
by his carelessness a guard is alleged
to have jumped on his stomach while
another attendant kicked him. Anoth-
er patient named Davis was beaten and
injured internally.
Some months ago Governor Mickey
made a personal investigation of the
conditions at the asylum as the result
of which several officials were removed.
This has led to bad blood, and there
is bitter quarrel between DR.. Alden,
the assistant superintendent.

TO SELECT A SITE
LOCATION OF FAIR GROUNDS MAY
 BE DECIDED TO-DAY.
Committee Called to Meet at p. m. to Pass Upon Properties Of- fered--schOOfs Inter
 eated in show.

The location of the site for the big State Fair, which Is to be held in Mont gomery, October 22 to 27. by the Ala bama Agricultural Association, will be discussed, and probably decided upon this afternoon.
 A meeting of the committee on loca- tion, recently appointed for the pur- pose of Investigating and recommend ing the site for the event, has been called for o'clock today In the head quarters of the Association, 40 1-2 Commerce Street. and at this meeting action will be taken which in all prob ability will settle the matter.
 While no definite steps have been taken, and no views of the prospect of- ficially stated. there Is q general un- derstanding that the site selected will be either on the north or east side Of the city. Last week, Engineer Garrett was given orders to survey three prop critics on those sides of the city. and to estimate and report to the commit tee the approximate costs Of building a race track on each of them. This work has engaged the time of the engineer during the week, and 1t is expected that he will have his estimates pre- pared before the time for the meet ing this afternoon.
 The power of the committee does not include the right to select a site for the Fair Grounds. but only to make recommendation regarding 1t, the re- commendation to be decided upon by the Board of Directors at the first meeting of this body. It is under stood. however, that whatever the re- commendatioh may be, the Board will approve of 1t, as the matter has been left practically to the discretion of the members of the committee, who have all investigated the different pieces of property offered for this pur- pose. ~
 There is a possibt,fsy, also. that a meeting of the Board Cf Directors will be called, to follow 'he committee meeting, at about o'clock, or later this afternou, to receive tho recommen- daticn of the committee. No call Tor such a meeting has been made, now ever, and the final decision or the Beard may be delayed for several days It Is the general opinion or the mem bers of the Board that the matter should be decided upon as soon as pos sible, in order to begin the prepara- tions. which will be on a most exten- Lsive scale.
 Another letter signifying the approv- al with which the suggestion Of the Educational Department is being re- ceived by the schools of the State, was received yesterday President Fl. O. Sargent of the Sixth District Normal school, located at Hamilton, wrote letter to Secretary Adams, speaking In the highest terms of the value oi such a department to those who will visit the Fair, and asking for a gen erous share of space In which to place exhibits of the work done in his school.
