Swear Of on Pies

What loyal American ever demanded that his pie should be wholesomes Ever since the foundation of the republic we have been eating pie two or three times day, and have proved the inherent stamina of our race by surviving the diet. All this time we have known that we were taking our lives in our hands and have grinned and rejoiced in the risk. If they are going to make pie healthful, what is the use of eating it } We shall still have doughnuts, fried meats, pickles, ice water, melons and soda fountain connections to fall back on. There will be plenty of ways left of running our stomachs and souring our dispositions. But it would be sad to have this old established institution pass away. Pie has long been America $ great national article of diet. It's praises have been sung alike by Ralph Waldo Emerson and Colonel Henry Wat terson, and its virtues have been mat ter for silent thanksgiving by the great silent choir of substantial citizens. But now, if pie is not going to hurt us, we shall have to stop eating it and discover some way of getting strawberry short cake all the year around.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Why Clocks Don't Strike Together

A man in this city whose business is clock winding, which includes also the regulation and cleaning of the family timepieces in his charge, explained the other day why it is hard to have a num- Der of clocks strike together.
 "You see," /" he said, "some clocks are arranged to strike half minute before the hour, others a quarter of a minute before, some a few seconds after, and so on. Now if I regulate them to strike at the same instant, they will not be in agreement in point of actual time, and that is really a more important consid- eration. Of course, if there are a great many clocks in the house, it is likely that several will happen to strike to- gether. For instance, one house on my route has twenty clock that I look af ter. Of these, five or six strike in uni son and the others all within a minute,

oUEEREsT MEN ON EARTH
Wear No Clothes, While Few Leaves
 Satisfy Pride of Their Women

Earth s oldest and oldest race of men has been brought prominently into mo- tice again through the widespread in- terest aroused by sending batch if Indian political agitators to the penal settlement on the Andaman Islands. that beautiful coral-bound archipelago in the Bay of Bengal This remnant of the most primitive human species in existence will soon be nothing but an ethnological memory. Contact with ad- vanced civilization has been followed. as usual, with train of infectious dis eases which are steadily thinning the ranks.
 Owing to the ancient course of trade, the Andamanese have been known about from the earliest times. Ptolemy s Aga than Daimonos Nesos probably pre- serves the misunderstanding of some term applied by sailors to place in or near the modern Andamans. Notices of them by travellers, Asiatic and Euro pean, are continuous from the seventh century, and the islands regularly ap- pear in some shape on maps of those regions from the Middle Ages down.
 The Andamanese live in Hesperid. ian garden, where they toll not, neither do they spin. For the product of the spinner they have no use, as the men go stark naked and the women wear one or more leaves in front and bunch of leaves tied around the waist behind.
 The average height of the men is 5S inches and that of the women 54 inches
 They appear to dwell free from care in country that is everywhere beauti- ful and varied.
 In the ordinary attainments of human beings, however unenlightened, the An damanese are amazingly deficient. Dur ing all their ages of intercourse by word of mouth they have not developed a medium worthy of the name of Ian guage Before the arrival of the Brit ish the tribes, except actual neighbors, had no intercourse. Even clans of the same tribe found difficulty in the details of dialogue with one another. There is a change of jargon every twenty miles of the coast They have no words for ordinary greetings, salutations or ex- preSsion of thanks.
 Such language as they have, however, is exceedingly interesting from the phil ological point of view. It possesses a quality which would be invaluable were the Andamanese a business people. In their speech only what is absolutely nee essary is usually expressed. These mites of humanity could do just as well probably without any words at all. They have an expressive sign language which they employ almost as much as the spoken words. Their speech is jerky, disjointed and helped out often by grimaee, a gesture or sudden change in tone.
 The Adamanese knows scarcely any thing and has no desire to increase his stock of knowledge. He has never learned any sort of agriculture. Until the English taught him to keep dogs he did not know how to domesticate any animal or bird. He cannot count, even with his fingers, and doesn t see any need of counting. All his ideas are hazy and inaccurate.
 On one point, however, he is level headed. He belongs to race of bad fighters, knows it, and will never attack unless certain of success.--Calcutta cor respondenee to the New York World.

 "No, l don't get rich at my busi- ness, but l make living at it. The house l just spoke of is an especially profitable one, of course, having so many clocks. They pay me $l00 a year for my attendance there, which is given weekly, as it is to all the places l visit. '-New York Times.

CITY TAKES A PROFIT.

Alderman fowler brought up the
matter of improving the old jail prop
erty, and submitted the plans of the
architect for improving the property
and also for erecting a new building.

of the firm of Caldwell Bros. was pres
ent and offered to buy the property
at $4,000; $4,000 cash and assume the
two outstanding notes of $1,7OO each
due the county. This was quick

dition they would receive taxes on the
property of between SIS and 500

SENATOR
CARMACK
GETS A MAGNIFICENT REcEP'
TON At KNOXVILLE.
Plays a Star Part in the Fight For
Saloon Abolition, Making
Tive Addresses.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, March s.
The brilliant star of today's temper
ance campaign In this city was ex-
Senator E. w. Carmack. who arrived
here early this morning and spent the
day and night In the interest of tenn
perance.
Mr.. Carmack's quarters at the I'm
perial Hotel were crowded with call
ers all day, and many were the ex'
pressions of hope that he would again
enter public life. He stated in the
course of an interview with The
American correspondent that he had
not yet decided what he would do az
a private citizen, although he had two
plans in view. He was not decided
where he will reside In Tennessee,
and even Knoxville will enter the
race to secure him as citizen.
Market Hall never held such an aud
fence as packed it tonight to hear the
ex-senator. Previous to going to the
hall he was taken to Church street
Methodist Church. where he address
ed 1000 persons who had not been
able to crowd into the Market Hall
auditorium. He was introduced to
the large audience by Capt. VIM. Rule,
editor of the Journal and Tribune, a
staunch Republican, who referred to
knowing Carmack twenty years ago
when he was in the newspaper bust
ness. and called him the peer of the
ablest man in the United States Sen
ate. He referred to the Senator's re-
cent parliamentary struggle against
the ship subsidy bill. and lauded him
very highly
Senator Carmack, in opening his
speech, said he and Capt. Rule poll
tically were like Lazarus and Dives
"a great gulf fixed between them.
but that the gulf was never 80 wide
as the arm OF personal friendship is
long, and they had always been warn
personal friends.
The Senator's address was not
bitter arraignment of the saloon men
but of the saloon He dweh particu
larly upon the saloon in politics, ant
said that it must be destroyed. HI
said that the day when the saloon goe'
out will be a glorious day for Knox

as the defiant enemy of law and or

A fire inspector having never been
appointed. the matter was discussed
at length and the Mayor was instruc-
ted to appoint an inspector temporar-
lily and pay him simply for the days
he works.
J. l. Graham. OF the City Grain &
Feed Company. was granted limited
police powers.
The matter Of laying a pavement
on the East side OF South Garden
street between Ninth and Tenth
streets was referred to the street com
mlttee.
Alderman fowler brought mp the
matter of tn new charter and stated
that the new charter had been drawn
by Recorder Erwin and a committee,
and that 1t was identical with the old
charter with a few exceptions. the
laws licensing and regulating the sale
of liquors haveing been left out, the
number of wards having been reduced
to three, with two aldermen from each
ward to be elected by the voters at
large, and with only one voting pre-
cinct, and that at the court house. In
the matter of collecting the delin-
ouent taxes there is also some change,
the new charter holding the Record
err and his bondsmen liable for all de-
linquent taxes not included in the
land sales, and providing for an alb
solute title to property sold for de-
linquent taxes at the expiration, OF
two years. On motion of Alderman
fowler, the Senator and Representa-
tives were requested to re-incorpor'
ate the town under the charter as
drawn.

MUCH FEELING AGAINST AssAIL
ANT OF MAURY COUNTY MAN.
After Whitaker, Colored, Pleads Gull
~, Sentenced and Is Hurried to

Sundays American contained the
following notice, which will doubtless
be news to the majority of Column
bans:
Sheriff Love Webb, of Maury coun-
ty. arrived in Nashville on Friday
night having in custody AFTER Whit
taker. colored, 80 years old, whom he
was rushing to prison to avoid any
possibility Of violence to the negro.
Whitaker is the negro who shot and
badly wounded Doss Hancock, the
ticket agent at Glendale, small
Louisville & Nashville station about
seven miles from Columbia. He en-
tered plea of guilty to the charge
of assault with intent to commit muir
der in the first degree in the Circuit
Court of Maury County and was given
the maximum term of twenty-one
years.
cat the time Of the assault the tick
ct agent was making an attempt TO
arrest Whitaker, the negro being
charged with assault. Whitaker open
ed fire on Hancock with a shotgun
at close range and almost blew off one
side of the ticket agents face. The
wound was a very dangerous one, and
for time 1t was not thought that ne
would recover. The shooting occurred
several months ago.
Sheriff Webb stated that he dc
not know that there would be any ef
fort to do violence to the negro, but
there was much feeling against him
and he decided to bring him to pris
ON at once as precautionary meas
ure. The Sheriff said the prisoner
showed indifference as to his situa

that Whitaker was feigning being
mentally wrong, hoping this may hell

SPRING HILL
WANTS THAT INTERUR5AN ROAD
BAD.
Board Of Trade Entertains the Roads
Officials and Offers Inducements
For II to Come There.

SPRING HILL, Tenn, March 10
The Spring Hill Board of Trade held
meeting Wednesday night in the
Directors room of the Spring Hill
Bank to discuss the building OF the
Nashville interurban road. Large
committees were appointed on Right
of Way. Reception, Power Plant, ETC.,
and an invitation was extended TO
President Mayberry and his associates
to visit Spring Hill and allow the
Board of Trade to present the claims
and advantages of Spring Hill for
this road.
Mr.. Mayberry and Mr.. Hirsch, the
contractor, came out Thursday after
noon and met with the Board of Trade.
The building was crowded to the ut
most with the citizens of this town and
community.
Addresses of welcome were deliv-
cred by e. H. Ayres. Chairman OF the
Reception Committee, and also by the
President of the Board of Trade.
Mr.. Mayberry outlined the plans
and intentions of the road. He was
frequently cheered.
Mr.. Hirsch said that his business
was not to talk but to lay rails and
cross-ties. After these large number
of citizens made short talks and in ev'
erv case a willingness was expressed
to give to the company free right OF
way. 1t was the sense of the meeting
that the interurban road should split
the principal street of the town wide
open.
