TIE SHORTAGE NOW
A SERIOUS PROBLEM
Lumber Famine Predicted for
Seventy-five Years.
FIGURES ARE APPALLING.

Washington, Sept. 14-Shortage in
railroad ties is becoming a serious
problem to the railroads of the United
States. Only recently the Forestry
Bureau of the Department OF Agricul-
ture, predicted a lumber famine in the
country in seventy-five years. IL the
present consumption of lumber was
maintained under present conditions
of preservation of the forests, and man
ufacture of output When ii Is real
lied that the railroads used last year
l03 100000 railroad ties, averaging
about thirty board feet each. and that
this number of ties aggregate more
than 1000 600, 900 board feet, or one
twelfth of the sawed lumber produced
in the entire country in one year, the
problem can be better understood.
That such shortage has been for
seen by the railroads is manifested by
their almost frantic efforts in the past
to find a substitute for wood from
which to make railroad ties. A few
years ago a steel tie was invented

THAT "sTAY-AT-HoME DOLLAR"

For the past week there have ap-
peared in the Palladium various small
advertisements such as, Watch for the
stay-at-home dollar etc. These adj
vertisements were for the purpose of
arousing your curiosity and from the
large number OF inquiries we have re-
ceived, we have been successful in max
ing a great many people inquisitive.
Today in another column appears
full explanation Of the "stay at home
dollar" and we wish every reader Of
the Palladium would cooperate with us
in showing how far a dollar spent in
Richmond, will go.
Our object in keeping track of this
dollar is to prove to our own satisfac-
tion and to the satisfaction of our
readers. that it pays to trade at home
to do your purchasing in your own
called attention to the evils of the mail
order business and of trading in other
cities, such as Indianapolis, Dayton or
Cincinnati. BY means of the stay
at-home dollar" we are going to prove
to you just how much good that dollar
can do if spent in your own city. We
are going to prove to you that the dol
lar spent in Indianapolis, Layton, Gin
cinnati, or with the mail order houses
is irrevocably gone from Richmond.
And that the dollar spent in Richmond
circulates among hundreds of people,
helping to build up the city and make
it better market for the farmers, add
ing to the merchants business and
thus increasing the general prosperity
of the city, and SO on endlessly.
We want to keep track of the travels
of this dollar and in order to do SO
must have your help. Ii the dollar
comes into your possession spend it
here in Richmond. Spend it with some
one who will keep it in circulation.
Don't spend 1t with tight wad," and
don't retain it as a souvenir; keep it
on the move. Use it to pay your rent
with or to settle your grocery or any
other account in Richmond. Tell the
person to whom you give it what it's
mission is and ask him to do his share
towards keeping it on tie move. Also
keep the Palladium posted on its his
tory fran day to day. For this purpose
we have fastened tags to the dollar on
which you should write the history of
the dollar while in your possession.
Follow the directions on the first tag
in writing your share of the dollars
history. AS soon as you have done this
bring the dollar to the Palladium office
so that we may make record for publi-
cation of it's travels. When the tags
become filled bring the dollar to the
Palladium so that we may place new
tags on it.

CURIOUS CASE BE-

ENcE OF TUBERCULOSIS.
(Raoul De Saint Renee

Paris. Sept. IA curious case of
law and professional etiquette will
shortly come before the French courts.
1t is the outcome Of the will of a
wealthy American lady named Suzan-
ma Margaret Cagger. who took up her
residence at Montpelier about four
years ago.
Miss Cagger went to Montpelier fol-
lowing a severe attack of typhoid few
er and called in local practitioner to
attend her. At the end of last month
she died BY the terms of her will she
bequeathed $4,000 to her brother.
$4,000 to the nurse who attended her,
$4,000 dollars TO the Bishop of Mont
pelier, and other legacies, amounting
in all to 100000. and constituted her
doctor residuary legatse.
This raises an interesting question,
as French law forbids a doctor to re-
ceive a bequest from a patient whom
he has attended. The doctor. however,
declares that the will is valid, as he
was in England at the time of Miss
Cagger's death. and the law only APP
plies when a doctor is actually pres
ent at the deathbed.

the French Republic, has just COM

ALCOHOL: AS AUTO FUEL
Cost Too Great to Make Case
line Substitute.
PEAT ALCOHOL POSSIBLE.

London, Sept. 14.-The question of
alcohol as fuel for motors has recent
ly been investigated in thorough
manner by British experts and 1t has
been found that the cost of obtaining
the fluid from ordinary grains. vegeta-
bles. ETC.. Is too great to make it SUBJ
stitute for gasoline from standpoint
OF price. Ii has been found, however.
that alcohol may be obtained from peat
which is gathered in quantities in diff
ferent parts of Europe and in the
colder climates of North America 1t
s estimated that peat alcohol may be
marketed for as low as cents a gallon.

said to be very voluminous.
1t will be locked up in a Golfer until
twenty years after NJ. LoubeNs death,
when it will be published. This delay
was no doubt prompted by the delica-
CIV of the ex-President in regard to GER

The late NJ Cassimir-Perrier also
wrote some memoirs, but they, too,
were held back.
The celebrated Kaula scandal,
which is still fresh in the memory of
Frenchmen, is recalled by the death of
General Cafferel After leaving ST.
Cyr, he began brilliant military ca
reer, and was appointed general in
1884 Three years later he was chos-
en- by General Boulanger to fill the
post of under chief of the general staff.
This appointment brought about his
downfall.
At the end of 1887 he became inn
plicated in the famous decoration scan
dal and was dismissed from the army
for dishonorab1e conduct in traffickfng
with decorations. A few days later
General Cafferel's name was struck
off the roll of the Legion of Honor.
For twenty years General Cafferel
effaced himself from the public view,
and so completely did he disappear
that most people thought him to be
dead. A few months ago, however, he
was the victim of a nocturnal attack
by Apaches as he was returning to his
flat in the Avenue Ledru-Rollin, when
his name again came before the public.
The French Academy of Sciences
has lust become acquainted with a
method by which the existence of tu-
berculosis can certainly be detected.
1t consists in inoculating the patient,
as in vaccination, with few drops OF
the tuberculin of Koch.
If tuberculosis does not exist the
small incision heals rapidly. but If the
patient is affected with the smallest
trace of the disease, although symp-
toms may not have been revealed. the
incision rubbed with the tuberculin be
comes inflamed and in from four to
five days a pustule similar to that of
vaccine appears, running its course in
four or five days.

EIGHTY CASES TO A JUDGE

Montgomery, July 2-(Special )-With the ending of the work of the November ierm of the supreme court, which came today it is found that there have been handed down J7O cases, which is about eighty cases to the man. Of this number Chief Justice John R. Tyson wrote 7S, almost as many as any of the others. However, he handed out twenty of these before he went on as chief justice on November 19 The time to write cases of the chief Justice is only about half of that oi the others, as he has to preside while both divisions are in consultation.
 There were eighty-four original cases ha ,led down toda. ifty-eight rehearinss de tel and seven granted Seven were continued by consent of parties inter ested This makes total of 149 cases handed down today. The record of the term l. considered better in many re- srects than has ever been made. The judges are practically up and will have only half a dozen cases each to carry ag.y for the summer. The members n. th, court have scattered to their homes and hv ths end of the week few ,sk them VI De here.
 Important today was the ruling that the banks cannot take from their tax on cf ,ital stock amounts paid for record of mortgages. This will save the state s2oo- GOO year. The damage suits of Gov ernor Conner against the Louisville and Nashville railroad and the Birmingham Age-Herald will have to be tried, appli- cation for rehearings being overruled.
