Annual Report of the Associate Editor Southern Illinois
and Superintendent of the Southern
Illinois District

In this my report covering the year from May 1905,
to May 1906, want to state that beginning the work
January 1903, the Southern Illinois district
posed of the counties Of Madison, Bond Fayete, Efng
ham, Jasper and Crawford and the territory south, in
all thirty four counties On March 1906, this dis
trict divided giving to S. S. Smith the counties
of Madison, Bond, Effngham, Clay, Marion Clinton;
Washington, Monroe Randolph, ST. Clair and jackson,
leaving Perry county in the fourty forth senatorial dis
trict under my charge.
This district is noted especially for it's mining interests
throughout, the coal industry being, perhaps, the
greatest Of We have in this district
strong temperance sentiment in fact, four entire
ties namely, Lawrence, Crawford, Hamilton and Ed
wards, are without saloon at this time
Upon entering this work, made it my first duty to
become acquainted with the pastors of the churches
outside Of my denomination. Having had twelve
years experience in general Sunday School work. which
brought in touch with my people and gave me

quite an experience we'll advantage in my
personal knowledge Of the field [ think say with
perfect safety that there is not single neighborhood
in the entire district where am not acquainted per-
sonaly with the preachers we'll with lay members
OF the churches.
AS to making dates, in the past year, have found
difficulty whatever. [ have not in the entire year had
to visit single place for the purpose of opening
church and all dates have been made by correspondence
This to me has been very gratifying.
AS to meetings held, the whole number has been
hundred and twenty-five. In these meetings have the
heartiest cooperation shown in most cases, only
by the pastors but from members of the churches
orally In carrying the correspondence of the League
there has been from this office about four thousand
pieces Of mail These letters have been written by the
office force and sent out.
AS to the legislative work. this Southern Illinois dis
trct is composed of the following senatorial districts

No Short Train.

For some time past the editor OF Inc
Herald has been endeavoring to induce
the Southern Railway to extend the ser
vice of short train from Augusta on to
Bamberg. This train now runs between
Blackville and Augusta, and it would De
a great convenience to our people If the
train could be run to Bamberg. We have
had some correspondence both with the
railroad authorities and the railroad COM
mission, and it appears that we will not
get the train. Superintendent Heether
wrote us last week that the railroad could
not extend the train, on account OF the
extra expense the road would be put to
in running another train from Blackville
to Kingville. 1t seems that this tram
will shortly be put on in order to make
certain the connection at Branchvi!le for
Columbia and the up-country. Mr..
Heether's reason for not extending the
Augusta train is no reason at all, but we
greatly fear the railroad commission Will
not give US any relief.

DIVISIONS OF TIME.

Measurements Of the Days, Months
and Years.
A "solar day" is measured by the ro-
tation Of the earth upon its axis and 1s
Of different lengths, owing to the clip
ticity Of the earth's orbit and other
causes, but a mean solar day" Is
twenty-four hours long, as reckoned by
the timepieces.
An astronomical day commences at
noon and is counted from the first to
the twenty-fourth hour. A "civil day.
commences at midnight and is count
ed from the first to the twelfth hour,
and then again commences with one
and finishes with twelve. A nautical
day" is reckoned the same as the civil
day." only that the reckoning is begun
at noon instead of at midnight.
A calendar month varies from
twenty-eight to thirty-one days. A
mean lunar month" is twenty-nine
days, twelve hours, forty-four minutes,
two and two-thirds seconds. A year
is divided into 365 days. A "solar
year." which is the time occupied by
the sun in passing from one normal
equinox to the other, consists Of 1884,
24244 days, which is equal to Se5 days,
8 hours, 4S minutes, 1886 seconds.
A Julian year" is 365 days even. A
"Gregorian year" is 365.2425 days.
The error in the Gregorian mode OF
time reckoning amounts to but one day
in each 3,571 years.

Two Handles.'

Everything has two handles-the one
soft ard manageable, the other such as
will not endure to be touched. If, then,
your brother do you an injury, do not
take it by the hot hard handle, by rep
resenting to yourself all the aggraVat'
ing circumstances Of the fact, but look
rather on the soft side and extenuate
it as much as is possible by consider
ing the nearness of the relation and the
long friendship and familiarity be-
tween you-obligations to kindness
which a single provocation ought not
to dissolve And thus you will take the
accident by it's manageable handle.-

A Good Eater.

When Gustavus Of Sweden was be-
sieging Prague, a boor Of extraordi.
nary aspect gained admittance to his
tent and offered, by way Of amusing
his majesty, to devour large hog In
his presence. Old General Konigs-
marck, who was in attendance, at once
suggested that the man with the Car
gantuan appetite should be burned as
q witch, whereupon the boor, whose
feelings were hurt by this observation,
exclaimed. IF your majesty will but
make that old gentleman take off his
sword and spurs, I will eat him before
I begin the pig" This was accom-,
panied by such a "hideous expansion
Of the jaws and mouth that the gen
eral, though he had given his proofs
on many a field, turned pale and fed
incontinently to his tent.

NONE GENUINE WITHOUT THE LABEL ON THE COLA
In Need Of Funds.

The Philadelphia Ledger tells how one
man had his financial needs anticipated:
A churchman was travelling through
the country with an evangelist. At a
village in Ohio, meeting was held, at
which an announcement was made that
the proceeds of collection to be taken
would be turned over to missionary
fund. In the audience was man who
was publicly known TO oppose foreign
missions, and who was also suspected OF
being an agnostic of the deepest dye.
The churchman in the course of the col
lection passed this man the box. The
other pushed it away with sneer on bis
face. A sudden inspiration came to the
churchman, and, thrusting the box under
the fellows nose, he said. Here, take
some-it's for the heathen."

HEDGEHOGS.
Venom Of the Most Poisonous Snakes
Does Not Affect Them.

Docs NOT AucCt
An interesting fact about hedgehogs
that perhaps not many persons know
is that the bites of even the most pol
sopous serpents have no effect on them
whatever. Mr.. Lenz, naturalist, once
watched q fight between hedgehog
and q viper and gives most interest
ing description Of it. He says that
when the hedgehog came near the
snake she began to smell it, for the
sight of these animals is 80 poor that
they depend almost entirely on the
sense of smell, and then she seized It's
head with her teeth.
In a moment the snake had freed it.
self and, darting at the hedgehog, bit
it several times, but the little animal
did not seem to mind the bites at all,
and when the snake was tired out with
it's efforts she again seized its head,
which she ground beneath her teeth.
poisonous fangs and all. Then she de-
voured almost the whole Of its body.
NJ. Lenz also tells Of pet hedgehog
that he kept in his house In q large
box. Several times he put some ad-
ders into the box. which the hedgehog
did not seem to fear at all, but at
tackled them fiercely and, as in the case
of the other, was never in the least af-
fected by their poisonous bites.
A man who had pet hedgehog
in his possession for long time says
that he had often seen it throw itself
off the top of wall fourteen feet In
height. Without pausing moment 1t
would contract itself into soft, fluffy
ball and fall to the ground so lightly
that almost Immediately it would un-
fold itself and run off.-Chicago Chron'

Denatured alcohol, though author

the treasury department has given no
tice that 1t will not distribute the
regulations for its manufacture, au-

The treasury department announces
that. In view of the numerous in
quiries received at the treasury and

form the public that there has been no

cohol may be manufactured. The dis
tillery must be set up in the manner
now prescribed by law and the revenue
regulations. The usual distillers' bond
must be given: the distillery must be
surveyed by a duly authorized officer;

tablished "a storekeeper and gauger
must be assigned to duty at the ware
house. and all other existing laws and
regulations complied with.

on the preparation of denatured al
cOhol for the market.
