Fair Treatment of ImmlErants.

Charleston News and Courier.
 We must be judged by what we qo, not by what some other people think we ought to do. If we really want foreign immigrants we must take care of them fairly when they arrive here They are not coming of their own ac- cord. All the records of the Immfgra- show this and when they come at our invitation they must be well taken care of or they will leave us. >as they ought to leave us We cannot accomplish anything by emphasizing the outrages committed in the North. The most we can do. and the best we can do, is to guard the good reputation of the South.

 our fleet, it is announced, will sail around the world on its return to it's Atlantic berth. This will take some- thing off in the sting to Japanese Jin- goism that the trip Into the Pacffic alone might s4iave occasioned. Anoth CT element of good in this unprecedented trip of these battleships is ue prestige that the presence of this Mishty fleet will carry as the representative of ropean tax-extorting power. It will open the eyes of people and their princes to see that. while we don't devote approximately as much re- are able to make pretty good show Ing. But at that, a peaceful display would doubtless carry the truth or our power and blessedness better than any warlike brandishing and strutting such as this.

 French municipal administrators, while apparently vested in the hands Of amateurs is in reality carried on by q corps of professional civic <ad- mfnlstretors. The approximation m the of important powers than Is vested in fhe chief executive. of any American city has not served to make the French administrator mtnicipal despot or municipal drudge. It has enabled the French to preserve the outer forms of an elective. nonbureaucratic municipal government, and at the same time to secure the efiiciency which comes from the actual performance of administra- tive functions by skilled and expe- rienced of1ciais. who secure in the tenure of their posts. go about their work with little or. no capttous inter ference from the elected represents lives of the people.

From a late issue of The Lexington fxvb Herald we CODY these two items:


 CKy.) Herald we copy these two items:
 The firm of Charles S. Brent and Rrother closed Saturday their Chrlst- mas shipment of turkeys to the New EnEiand ma rl cts, having siaughtered yOk0 head in Flemin gsburg, 5,U00 m Paris, 10000 in Millersburg and 5000 in Carlisle. The entire shipment S2,- 600 head, average eleven pounds, or total of 352, 900 pounds, which placed into circulation at the above mentioned points the sum of $35.0oO.
 Messrs. N. F. Brent and Edward Burke have purchased of c. F. Gon farm of l94 acres of land on the Tarr Station pike at .$100 per acre. Messrs farm recently purchased of Sidney C. Clay containing 70 acres. for which they paid $150 per acre, nearly all the land being virgin soil. They Will plant extensively of tobacco next year m ! is decided to raise crop. otherwise they will plant large acreage to hemp and other paying crops.
 The first item gives an idea of tury key raising in one section of Kentucky, and the other shows the high prices of lands up there, as compared with land down here. We do not know whether the region from which all those turkeys were shiped has any special facilities for poultry growing, though that may be the case. How ever that may be. it is plain that rais- ing turkeys is good business, in Ken lucky. at least.

Atmospheric Weioht.

At the sea level, with the barometer marking 30 inches and the thermo.l- eter g degrees F., cubic foot of pure dry air weighs about 565 grains troy
 The weight of cubic foot of water vapor under the same conditions is only 3J2 grains. When vapor is mixed with dry air, therefore, the resulting compound is lighter-that is to say, damp air is lighter than dry air III stormy weather the air is lighter than 1t Is in fair weather and not heavier
 as many persons suppose. When smoke hangs about the surface of the earth, it shows that the air is lighter than the smoke. When the air is dry. if is heavier than the smoke, and the latter therefore asccnds. The weight of the ealsh's atmosphere, or, in other words. the pressure eXerted upon the earth by the atmosphere, Is about the same as would be eXertcd by q flood of water thirty three feet in height over the globe At the sea level the pressure Of the atmosphere is about fifteen pounds to the square inch. X man of ordinary size thus bears all the time a pressure of about 3O.O0O pounds. but he does not feel it, because the pressure is cXerted in every direction above, below and around him-and be cause his body is filled with air and state of equilibrium.
