A NEW GINNERY.

Mr.. G. L. Prescott yesterday
inaugurated a movement for {
new and modern ginnery, within
an hours time, be secured am.
pie subscription for the new en-
terprise.
Fitzgerald already has one Of
the finest plants Of the kind in
the state. But Fitzgerald's area
of agricultural territory is deve1-
oping rapidly, and we expect tc
see the two plants inadeq uiate to
the demands on them within a
few years.
Fitzgerald will receive more cotr
ton next year, than some places
with three or four ginneries.
The new ginney will be located
on the A. B. G. A. r. R., between
Sheridan and Thomas streets.
The promoters of the Enter
prise promised that it will be one
of the finest ginneries in Geor-
gia, and that it will take care OF
the demands made on it by the
producers of long and short
staple.

THE ARMY IN 1852.

Every American historian has
given us his views of the mixed
up affairs and constantly chang
ing leadership of the Union Army
10 1862. Many men who we're
prominent in the Army at that
time have written articles, histo-
rical and otherwise, of the events
and the epoch, but Carl Schurz,
in the May McClures instal1ment
of his "reminiscences of long
Life" gives US most compre-
hensive and resume of Army and
National affairs of the period.
Serving as Brigadier General
and later as Major General,
Schurz was in a position both to
see and to understand the whole
situation, and his keen insight,
broad knowledge and great abil'
ity give his views deep signif-
icance. He lived and fought
with the great Generals, McCle1-
Ian, Sigel, Fremont, Burnside
and Hooker whom he describes.
He tells just how each ones sue

STILL SLUMPING
More New Buildings.

1t seems that the building boom
takes on momentum as it prog
resses. 1t has been definitely
decided to fill out the quarter
square on which the Post Office
is located, with brick or stone
blocks. Mosher and Roush and
other owners of the property
will complete the block from the
corner to the alley south of the
post Office, this spring.
If old man Slumper gets
around he is likely to get a brick
or building stone dropped onto
his corns. Still slumping, but
not very still.

How TO Walk.

In walking it is important to walk
as If one enjoyed it. Few women walk
as If II were a pleasure. Some wear
heels SO high that they are compelled
to peg along. Others wear the low,
fiat heels that give a curious dumpy,
1umpy walk.
Then there are the women who
walk the side-to-side waddle. This is
caused by heels that are run over and
clothing that is too tight. It is also
caused by carelessness. The waddle
walk is an easy one to get in the habit
Of and a difficult one to overcome.
There are women who walk as if
they were carrying a burden. They
have the laborious motion of the
shoulders which tells that they are
uncomfortable.
If women could only be made to an.
preciate what an important part of
good looks. a graceful carriage is,
there would be no more poor walkers
among them.

GRAFT IN TRANSFERS.
The Office Boy Knows How to Utilize
Them.

Why do you suppose they print all
this stuff on them?" asked the So
ciety woman YEARLY, as she gazed at
her transfer ticket. "Of course nc
body ever reads one of them"
"Oh, don't they?" exclaimed the
business woman. IF you want to
know the meaning of every. letter on
a transfer ticket just ask some boy.
Our office boy can unravel the mys-
terfes Of a transfer ticket in a way
to make a college professor pale with
envy. He let's one get away
from him, either. He begins to col
lect them each morning or his way
to the office, begging them from pas
sengers, picking them up on the street
sometimes I half fear he takes them
away from the rightful holders-and
he can tell you exactly where
you can go on each ticket,
the exact minute at which it's useful.
ness will expire and everything else
you may wish to know.
"By keeping his collection complete

manager allows him for carfare, and
he tells me that he can, by ingenious
splicing of transfers, get himself far
out into the country for bis Saturday
afternoons of without. spending a

Feathered Briqands.

Following the report of ravages by
foxes in Richmond park comes news
of wholesale massacres in London
parks by other but equally destructive
invaders. Ducklings newly Matched
about the ornamental waters of the
various. parks are failing victims to-
the carrfon crow I'm the early morn
ing This maraudsr, penetrating ITO the
heart of London, watches and waits in
a tree overlooking a. lake, and! in due
course swoops downlupon the helpless
brood. One Of these raids was wit
messed by a keeper in Kensington
gardens. Scores Of ducklings have
BEEN devoured, and so, many young
birds. have Disappeared from the Ser
pentlne of late that. it was supposed
that rats had been at work, but the
blame is now laid! on the carrion
crow. AS in the case of the foxes,
reprkssls are occasionally made by
the keepers with shotguns.--London

PAsTIME OF JOCKEYS.
Get Their Enjoyment Out of Humble
Sports.

To the casual visitor to the race
tracks around New York, who is quite
as much interested in the human.
spectacle as he is in the races them
selves, one of the elements that at
tract his attention is that of the
jockeys. These pale-faced little, lads,
whose countenances are sadly serious
as a rule, have such a curiously boy
ish way of enjoying themselves be-
tween races that it comes as a sur
prise to n not familiar with their
ways to learn that one of the racing
men threatened to suspend his $685.
600 rider if he did not refrain from
spending his nights at Coney island or
in the Tenderloin.
The surprise will come to such a
man since whenever he has seer them
killing time between races they have
almost invariably been playing num-
b%le-te-peg. Seated on the grass in
front of the quarters assigned to them,
these boys, in their thin silks and:
featherweight boots, spend their time
absolutely absorbed in the game Just
as If they were ordinary school boys
and were not making incomes that run
up into the thousands every year. To
look at them absorbed in this pastime
they seem so extremely youthful that
one might we'll wonder if the average
habitue of the Tenderloin would not
advise such a lad to run home and 20
to bed.

Strawberries in Merlnque Shells,

These shells are easily made, if the
cook understands that a coolish oven
is an absolute necessity in cooking
the meringue. Beat the whites of six
eggs with a pinch of salt to a stiff
froth, using an egg whip instead Of a
patent beaten. Add by degrees a
pound of powdered sugar. When the
sugar is all beaten in, shape the me-
ringue into a dozen oval forms about
an inch and a half high. Dredge with
sugar and drop in a baking pan lined
with paper. Set in a very cool oven
where they may rise slowly and be-
come firm in about half an hour. They
must not be allowed to color in the
least. Cool for half an hour, then
dampen the bottom of the paper and
pull from the meringues. Shape the
shells by gently pressing the soft in
side up against the sugary outside.
This gives a thin shell Of meringue,
leaving plenty of space for the ber-
ries. Set in the sun or a drying oven
until perfectly dry. When ready to
serve, fill half the shells with straw.
berry ice cream and the other half
with a lemon or orange water ice. Or
fill half the shells with mashed and
sweetened berries, and the rest with
whipped cream or pistachio cream
and put the two together. Serve with
a delicate white cake.

DROPPED OUT OF EXISTENCE.
Why Resident of Australia Was
Reported as a Suicide.

Three times I have been a suicide
and each time I have lived to tell the
tale" declared John T. Bidleman, a
produce merchant Of Melbourne, Aus.
tralia, at the Arlington. according to
the Washington Post. Mr.. Bidleman
Is about SO years of age and has a
face that reveals much individuality.
NO. l did not take poison nor drown
myself nor do any of those things that
people ordinarily do when they take
their own lives" he went on. II
simply dropped out of existence each
time, forgetting the old surroundings
and living again in new ones. I have
come to believe that, the best remedy
for dependency is new environment,
e be gained at whatever the cost.
Il was born at Bangor, Me. My
father was a carpenter and I grew up
into the life of the town about as the
ordinary boy would. When 1 was
about II years old I developed an
Unsuitable desire to travel, had wan
derlust, as the Germans call it. I
wanted to go somewhere, but how 1
did not know. Everything seemed
commonplace and dreary to me and
for two years l became. more and
more depressed until my folks de-
SPARED Of my health. One night,
more than 80 years ago., I accidentally
discovered my fathers pistol and
thought it was the solution of the
difficulty.
II thought that no existence at all
would be better than the one 1 was
living. My mother was dead, my
father and I were fighting it out alone.
But 1t occurred to me that it was the
environment that did not suit ne,
and that I might better find a new
life somewhere else. So 1 worked my
way to New York and earned my way
to Liverpool on a sailing packet. From
there I went to London. I tried to for
get the old life, and lived in the new.
| entered a mercantile establishment,
worked my way up slowly until 1
earned a fair salary. l married there
and was quite c%ontented. But after
sever years my wife died, and soon
| became Respondent again. I knew
London well. Things did not interest
me. I felt that 1 must go somewhere.
The loss of my wife at one time made
me think of actual suicide again, but
not for long, and, taking my savings,
sailed away to Australia, where I
drifted into the produce business and
have lived there ever since. But 10
years is a long time for me to remain
in n place. For a year past l have
had the suicide mania, and now 1 am
going to find some city in the United
States to live in the rest of my days."

HOW TO MIX INGREDIENTS WITH
BEST RESULTS.
Rich Materials Need to Be Carefully
Handled If Success Is Desired
Right Temperature Of
81 Oven Is Important.

Old-fashioned wedding cake-Fruit
for this should be prepared in adj
vance as follows: Six cups of cur
rants, washed dried and picked.
Three cups sultana raisins; three cups
OF citron cut in fine strips, one-half
cup candied lemon peel, two cups
of almonds, blanched and cut in
.shreds. In a warm bowl mix four
cups of sugar, %granulated or confec-
stioner's, beat these together until very
light. Break ten eggs into another
bowl, but do not beat them. Cover a
waiter with a big sheet of paper; sift
four pints flour over this, add the
fruit and the following spices; two
teaspoons each of nutmeg, mace and
cinnamon, one tablespoon each of
cloves and allspice. Mix these togeth-
er and stand aside ready for use.
Have ready in a little pitcher one-half
pint best brandy. Select a deep cake
tin and grease with butter, line it in
side with. white paper and on the out
side and bottom with four or five
thicknesses of very coarse wrapping
paper, which you must tie on. Have
your owe hot and the fire banked so
it will not burn out quickly. Now
beat the butter and sugar once more,
add the eggs two at a time, beating
the mixture after each addition.
When the eggs are all used, turn in
the flour and fruit with brandy, mix
thoroughly, pour into the prepared
cake tin, v with several thick
nesses of brown paper, and bake eight
hours, keeping the oven steady and
clear. Remove from the oven and al
low it to stand on tin sheet until
quite cold. Ice with a thin coat of
white icing top and sides and stand
in a cool rel to dry, then give it a
second coat of thick icing and orna-
ment according to fancy. An icing
made of white of egg, a few drops of
cold water and confectioner's sugar
is the best for the thick icing.
An excellent white cake for, the
bride to cut is this: Take the whites
of eight eggs stily beaten, one pound
of flour, one cup of sweet milk, one
half pound of butter (scant), one-half
t%easpoonful of soda, two t~easpoonfuls
of cream of tartar. Cream the but
ter and sugar and add slowly the
milk and soda, dissolving the soda
in tepid water. Sift the cream of tar
tar with the flour and add the -four
alternately with the whites of eggs.
Flavor with vanilla, and bake in a
square loaf, or a round tube tin.
Claret punch: If liquor in mild
form is to be served, the following
punch will be found most satisfac-
tory: Put in the bottom of your punch
bowl six tablespoonful of pulverized
sugar, juice of six oranges and nine
lemons, a half pint of red curacao, or
some similar liqueur, one pint of
brandy, six bottles of plain soda and
six quarts of claret. Sliced fruit, like
pineapple, oranges, Strawberries, etc.,
add to the beauty of the punch and
also to the flavor.

"Deaf Mutes" Talk.

It is a misnomer to refer to any
one as deaf and dumb" Except in
r instances a child is mute, not o.
account Of any malformation of the
vocal organs, but because it is deaf
and has never heard a spoken IAN
guage. The loss Of the sense of hear.
ing should therefore not necessarily
mean deprivation Of the power of
speech also.
1t is only within recent years, says
the Scientific American, that we have
come to realize this fact, and in up.to.
date institutions the old-fashioned
finger alphabet is now unknown.
Every child is taught to speak in the
natural way by means of the vocal
organs.

A ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
Cure Mends Motor Cars When Not
Engaged in Holy Offices.

Near the northern coast of France.
on a route much %frequented by motor
lists, lies the village of G~raincourt.
Here a beautiful little church is set,
high among the trees, with a tower
reflected TRANQUILITY in a lake that
sleeps beside the road, and a cemetery
half hidden in verdure. Close by is
the home of the priest, and around 1t
a strange litter of bicycles, motor
cycles, automobiles, oil cans and tools,
while the open door of an out-building
reveals on one side a kind of garage,
on the other a repair shop. From
this building, as the tourist ap-
proaches, comes a tall figure, with the
body of an athlete and the head Of a
missionary, with bright eyes and a
grizzled beard, a kindly smile, and
muscular arms beared to the elbow.
Is this the cur of Graincourt or is it
the Village mechanic? He is both.
Times are hard, since the law sepa-
rating church from state went into
effect, and one must live, explains the
cure. 9
M. lie Cure is no martyr, however.
His father was a smith, and he grew
up with a passion for tools. When the
bicycle came in he became an anna
teur specialist, and for Is years he
has been mending punctured tires and
repairing broken pedals for his flock
free of charge. Then came the motor
car, with its mysterious life, so pow
erful in it's frail envelope. The motor
car. won the heart of the cure. He.
loves it, and thinks he understands it.
He has even built a car and a motor
cycle for himself.
And so the fame of the mechanical
cure Of Graincourt has gone abroad
throughout all the country, and at last
ne has decided, without any scruple,
to make a business of what had for
merly been a pastime. He believes
In his simple soul that he can be just
as good a priest, can administer the
sacraments and hear confessions just
as well, while he earns his living with
his ten fngers.-New York Tribune.

Pie Without Upper Crust.

A pie which has no upper, crust
should be made with a double rim.
It not only makes a better looking
and better tasting pie, but the filling.
If inclined to run over, has no chance
to. Make the under crust as usual:
then roll the pastry into long pieces
and cut strips a little over an incn
wide. Moisten the edge of the under
crust slightly with water and fit the
rim on neatly, pressing it into place
and marking. Then add the filling
and bake as usual.

COOKING Potatoes.

If you are camping out or picnick-
ing. there is no better way than to
"roas' in de san'," and eat them with
ham gravy.
Ordinarily we bake them unpeeled,
of course, until they are wrinkled and
soft. To steam or boil them is vast
ing Gods good gifts. Eat them with
butter or gravy. The soft, sweet, vel
low varieties are best for baking. The
white, dry kind, for frying or making
custard. To- fry them, pare and slice
rather thin, dropping. the slices in
sailed water or in boiling lard, turn.
ing frequently until we'll done. Serve
hot.
