To-morrow, Thanksgiving Day. the
big game of the r. Fl. S. football season
will be played on our own grounds.
Johnsonburg has fast team and every
one may be assured of good game.
The score at Johnsonburg was 90. 1t
was very wet, muddy day and neither
team could do themselves justice, but
we feel sure the weather conditions will
be good and we want large crowd.
At our games thus far we have had a
fair attendance but nothing like it
should be, aud as everything is closed
Thanksgiving Day, we want everyone
to come. The Fl. S. team this season
has not won many games, but it must
be considered we have never played
against team anyways near our own
weight.

Clerk IN Hsads OF Police.

New Orleans. La. Sept Is ~
Charles F. Letten. chief clerk in the
office OF the First District Tax Col
lector here. who disappeared two
days ago leaving q shortage of over
800, 200, was discovered yesterday
afternoon standing on the bank of
the Mississippi river, attempting to
summon up courage enough to jump
into the water and end his life. He
said he had started toward the wa
ter several times, but each time his
courage had failed him.
He made a full statement of his
affairs with the city,
The man who saw Letten stand
ing on the river bank reported his
discovery to the police, and when
the officers arrived they found Let
ten seated under an umbrella read
ing an account of the defalcaton in
a morning paper. He said he had
found the sun very hot and between
enough to jump in the river had sat
beneath the umbrella and read news
paper accounts of the shortage.
Letten said. when carried before
the inspector of police and the grand
jury, that he had spent the greatest
part of the money he had taken on
negro woman, who lives in
handsomely furnished house in the
old French quarter of the city, and
who is said to have bought consid-
cradle quantities of real estate. Let
ten says the greater part of the
money he had given her had been in
vested in realty, only a comparative
ly small amount being devoted to
her living expenses.
According to the last estimate
made as to Letten's shortage, he is
about 100000 short in his accounts
when he disappeared two days ago.
During these two days. he said, he
1 had been hiding in the weeds along
| the river while the police of hQf 9
! dozen southern cities were searching
/ for him.
Virginia Reed. the negress in the
case, was arrested today and held as
a witness. Her will. copy of which
was obtained today showed that
she had made provisions to give a
large amount of money to a church
and to an orphanage.

BASIS OF Two CENTS


Philadelphia. Sept. l3.--Pending Z
The final decision OF the supreme
court Of the state on the oonstitu.
liouality OF the &c mile railroad
rate bill, officials CT the Pennsylya-
aia railroad have not yet reached
h definite conclusion in regard to
ghe changes In the present schedule
OF rates. Confident that the decision
Of the Philadelphia court would be
sustained by the higher court, the
company is nevertheless alive to the
possibilities of reversal and while
round-trip excursion and commuta-
lion rates will probably remain at
present it is believed that all straight
fares will be put on flat &c basis
after October l and remain in force
until the contest has been finally
settled.
Operating officials positively de-
cline to discuss the probable out
come, but it is stated the legal de-
partment will advise that the road
proceed on the assumption that the
Jaw will go into effect on October l.
Other roads in the state are ex-
oected to follow the example Of the
Pennsylvania, SO as to avoid the pos
-ibility of the heavy fines imposed
by the act. With the handing down
Of the opinion of the supreme court
the railroads will then be in posi-
ton to deal definitely with the ques-
zion and either restore the present
schedules If favorable to them or
completely readjust the rate sched
ules on excursion and Communication
+ickets. =
The suits instituted by other rail-
roads attacking the constitutionality
of the act will probably be left un
touched until the decision of the
higher court has been obtained.

LIKE A FIRE.
But the Fire is Only Pho
sphorscent Water--lt's
in the Bahamas.

The lake of Waterloo is a pho
sphorescent sheet of water thous
and feet long, near Nassau, in the
Bahamas. At night is is like a
sheet of living fire If any kind is
stirring to rutfie its surface.
If the night be calm, says the
Rosary Magazine, the water lies
dark and still until some object
sets it in motion. Little colored
boys are ready to swim out into
the lake, where they seem to be
clothed in garments of flame,
leaving long trail of molten
splendor behind them.
The oars when rowing are as
when dipped in fire, and if one
holds up a handful of the water
and letsTt fall it looks like beads
of gold, and the fish that dart here
and there, startled by the visitors
leave flashes of mystic, glowing
splendor behind them.
The clumsy turtles that move
about look like balls of fire, and
when it rains the lake is like a
mass of jewels. This maryeIou.
display of phosphorescence hal
never been accounted for, as the
lake is Of artificial formation,
having been made for the breeding
of turtles by a Nassau resident
The bed of the lake is cut out of
solid limestone and it is ii led frou
the sea, in which there is little oi
the phosphorescent quality.

Autos and Anarchy.

Perhaps the worst thing about
the automobile is its effect upon
the disposition of the man on the
sidewalI. The loss of human life
is really u small thing beside this
emnatic tendency. For instance,
there is a man standing in the
street, ready TO board an ap-
preaching car. He is at peace
with all the world, and feeling
happy after days conscientious
work. With whizz, honk, and
cloud of dust, an auto rushes bv
him at an unlawful rate of speed,
and go close that step backward
would have meant his death. The
man jumps, of course, and, after
that, feeling of unholy wrath is
likely to possess him. He feels,
and with some reason, that his
dignity as human being has been
trampled upon and ignored; and
he is in danger of falling into one
of two dangerous states of mind
a cringing, cowardly mental state,
or, what is more likely to al
American, Il dark revengeful one
Neither is right nor justified
The man in the auto meant nc
harm to his fellow creature, but
he forgot that scare constitutes
real harm. Pedestrians shoulC
not be forced to run just because
an automobile is coming. They
too, have right to the crossing
and when this right is ignored by
the chauffeur, any dark anarchis
tic feelings that may have beer
lying dormant in their natures ar,

TELEGRAPH
P OLE S

Officials of the Pennsylvania
lines west are preparing estimates
of the cost Of concrete telegraph
poles, and it is likely that this
company will be the first adopt
the concrete poles in preference to
the wooden poles now used, which
are constantly becoming more
costly and more difficult to obtain.
More than 80 of the new concrete
poles haye already been placed in
service on the Pennsylvania lines
west of this city, and the officials
admit that they are the best for
all service. At the railway tele-
graphers convention at Atlantic
City, G. A. Cellar, superintendent
of telegraph of the Pennsylvania
lines west, with headquarters in
this city, read a paper giving the
details of the test made by that
company.
The conrecte poles are small iii
section and approach tile minimum
in section and approach the mini
mum IN weight In the working
out of the plans for the requisite
strength with the minimum of
weight to hollow poels were made
by the Pennsylvania. These poles
weighed approximately 5000
pounds. The test was made ia
connection with two carefully sell
ected cedar poeIs of the same
length, and all were set in concrete
the base being three by three feet,
and five feet deep. Just within
the outer surface, the walls of the
concrete poles We're reinforced with
iron rods.
In making the test an IRON cleVl-
ce was placed around the pole Ia
he tested 10 inches from the top,
to which a wire rope was attached
leading over pulley placed at the
sams height and at an equal dis
tance from the pole 60 a. to from
a rigtt angle, and fastened TO a
different pulIy block, which was
attached to laboratory weighing
machine After the concrete poles
had been broken the reinforcement
so held them that it required al
most the breaking pressfure to fur
ther dehect hem from theirslightly
inclined position The wooden
poles, under strain, presented the
form of an arch before breaking,
and when they gave way were
fractured completely.
