LOUISIANA CANE SYRUP.
II May Fall Under the Ban of the Pure
Food Law.

New Orleans, Jan. 1.-THE fact that
probably nearly all the sugar cane
syrup and molasses output Of Louisi-
ana last fall was unmarketable under
a strict Interpretation of the pure
food law brought out correspondence
made public today between Secretary
Of Agriculture Wilson and Louisiana
sugar dealers.
The dealers pointed out to Mr. VIII
son that for fifty years sulphur had
been used in this State in treating
cane juice for Qualification, and that
because Of a widely published but err
roneous statement last fall the depart
ment of agriculture would permit the
use of sulphur to continue and the
crop which is to be marketed in 1907
to be made in the old way.
In few instances this product has
already been refused by those who
contracted to take 1t, the contractors
fearing the law.

GENERAL R. f. LEES
ANNIVERSARY DAY
WILL BE FITTINeLY CELEBRATED
THROUGHOUT THE soUTH-A
BIG EVENT AT LEXINGTON.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Lexington, Va, Jan. 1917 the
scores of observances to be held
throughout the South in celebration Of
the one hundredth anniversary of the
birth of General Robert E. Lee, 1t is
safe to assert that none will be of a
more notable or imposing character
than that to be held here under the
auspices of Washington and Lee Cni
versity, his alma mater. Preparations
for the observance have been going
forward for several months. The chic:
celebration is to be held tomorrow.
but preliminary exercises are to take
place tonight under the auspices of
the Graham-Lee Literary society. BY
happy selection the Grafton tomor-
row will be delivered by Charles Fran.
els Adams of Massachusetts. who was
one of General Lees opponents in the
Civil War.
After the war and after General Lee
had been offered many positions OF
honor and emolument the great leader
felt that there was no higher call to
duty, and no greater privilege for him
than to spend the remainder OF his lie
in endeavoring to influence young ren
in mental, moral and spiritual develop
ment. So he became president OF
Washington college and hither fiocke1
the youth of the South. During the
FIVE years that General Lee was spar
ed to preside over the institution and
impress his influence upon those com
mitted to HIS charge, more than 900
students were enrolled.

Prayer Meetings on Trains.
Special to the Herald.


London, Jan. 1S.-Two enterprising
and up-to-date evangelists have hit
upon the idea of a train prayer meet
ing. Suburban travellers are the ones
approached by these two self-styled
missionaries, whose first attack" has
been made upon the North London
railway trains, morning and evening.
One plays hymns on a concertina, and
joins in singing and praying. These
services on wheels, though occasion
ally resented, are not generally dis
approved. Indeed, many business men
who crowd the cars at the times these
services are held, seem to enjoy them.
So enthusiastic are the originators
over their success that-provided suf-
hcient funds are forthcoming-they
purpose extending their sphere of ac-
tivity to other railway lines. They
have received the consent of several
railway companies already, who favor
ably view the new departure.
