Southern railway, Speaker Jutice of
the North Carolina legislature, COM
puted the cost at $54.37 to operate
passenger train of two coaches and
baggage car on a North Carolina
distance of one hundred and forty
miles. By the same method of de-
duction Speaker Justice calculated
that the revenues from this train
would amount to $500 and that the
difference would be a profit to the
railroad. He took the position that
In this manner the cost of operating
and the revenues of the Southern rail
way system could be computed to re-

RockEFELLER's PREDICTED SPAN OF LIFE,
July g, 1882 -John D. Rockefeller born
July g. 1883 Date to which Mr. Rockefeller reason
ably expect to live, according his family 7hy-
sician
His Predicted Age Ninety -four years
Yet to Live II Twenty six years.

Cleveland, Ohio-That John D.
Rockefeller will live to more than
ninety-four Is the prediction of DR..
H. F. Biggar, his family physician.
DR.. Biggar watched Mr. Rockefel-
Ter play golf over 4the Forest Hill
links, and at the finish declared that
the Standard Oil magnate was likely
to live more than a quarter of a CEN
tury longer.
Mr.. Rockefeller, who looked partic-
ularly well, said he had never felt
better in his life and that he could
eat anything.
William Rockefeller, John D. Rock
efeller's father, is still living and is
ninety-four. DR.. Biggar said he sees
no reason why the master of Forest
Hill should not live longer than his
father.
He is the best-trained athlete in
the sixty-year-old class in the world
to-day, and he's sixty-eight, at that"
he said. He'll live longer than his
father, I'm sure. Did you see his
strokes on the links this morning?
Did they look feeble? / tell you, Mr..
Rockefeller has been born twice ply
sically, and he is only fourteen years
old now. He is growing up again.
and growing up scientifically, adding
to his muscle, to his lungs, to his
heart power with every breath OF
fresh air he takes on Forest Hill,
and with every drive he makes at the
Golf Club
And it cost Mr.. Rockefeller $5,-
100000 for this second life. Those
are his own words. It happened
in this wise, according to Doctor
'%Mr. Rockefeller came to Cleye-
land in 1898, in the middle of the
panic period, completely broken in
health and spirit. He could eat moth

New Orleans.-The nomination of
Hon. E. F. Noel for governor is now
an assured fact.
Mr.. Brewer believes that the affairs
of state in the hands of Mr.. Noel will
be safely and honestly administered.
and pledges his cooperation in every
measure that will enhance the up
building Of the state and its material
welfare.
He feels grateful to the thousands
of noble Mississippians who support
ed his candidacy and toward those
who opposed him he has no feeling of
in-win, believing that every man is
entitled to exercise his right of fran
chise conscientiously for what he be-
ieyes were patriotic reasons.
Mr.. Brewers statement is as fol
aOws:

Noel has been elected by majority
of the democrats Of the state as their

champion bearer. It would be un-
profitable and improper tor loyal
party man to speculate upon any OF
the causes which, in his opinion con-
trlbuted to his defeat, but it is the
plain duty of all democrats to cheer
fully accept the verdict of the peo-
pie. No other way in Mississippi,
except by a solidly united party can
supremacy be maintained, and that is
paramount and above everything else,
with all true Mississippians.
For the thousands Of noble friends
who supported my candidacy so ar
IDENTIFY and untiringly, | have no words
to express my emotion.
My deepest regret is their disap-
pointment; but they are loyal and
true, not merely to me, but to Mis-
sissippi, and will all honestly contrib
ute their mite toward the successful
administration of public affairs under
the guidance of my late opponent.
| have no criticism for those who
voted for him, but assume they exer-
cised their right of franchise con-
scientiously for what they believed
were patriotic reasons.
1t would be gross affectation for
me to deny that I am disappointed,
but am now and have ever been
content to abide by the expressed will
of the people. I have enjoyed the
friendship of Mr.. Noel for many
years, and the recent conflict has not
diminished my high regard for him;
ard | heartily join with his support
ers in the hope that his administra-
ton of the high Office to which he has
been nominated will rebound to the
honor and welfare of our beloved
state, and to his great credit.
For myself, I have endeavored to-
conduct my campaign on the high
plane of principle and have advo-
waited only those measures which, in
my judgment, after mature study and
deliberation were measures calculat-
ed to advance the highest interest Of
the state and all its people; measures
that would rebound to the lasting
glory of Mississippi.
| have no feeling Of unkindness to
anyone ranking in my soul as to the
result Of the election, but unreserved-
ly join in the ranks Of the democratic
masses, ready now as at all times, to
advance the cause Of that great party
and to aid in the material progress,
upbuilding and development of my ma
tive state.
