to invite Congressman Brantley to be
the orator of the occasion

nominees will get a large majority of
the votes in this county, at the same

show that the democrats of the city
are interested at least in the election.

lists and Hearts independence league
are all making a hard fight in Georgia
this year. with the various candidates,
and for this reason alone the demo
Gratis should get together and roll up
the largest majority the state has ever
given democratic ticket

that Hearst and Graves would shortly
come to Georgia on speech-making
tour, the republicans expect to turn
loose a big sum of money and Tom
Watson is making a desperate fight
for the state, With this state of af-
fairs it is up to the democrats to get
together and give the democratic tic
ket a large majority
Further announcement concerning
the organization of the Bryan and
Kern club will be made in a few

Flames Are Raging on Both
Sides Of Laurel Ridge,

Greensburg, Pa Oct. 6.-Two forest
fires are raging on either side of the
Laurel Ridge and are being fought
by half a hundred men. One fire
started at o'clock Sunday afternoon
near Kingston, on the Ligonier Val
ley railroad, midway between Ligonier

land have already been burned over
and the fire threatens to enter the

the burning woods, will be consumed.

an unknown cause, % men were sent
from Latrobe to fight the flames.
Starting in Kelley's hollow the fire
swept up the side of the ridge and
headed toward the northeast, towards
Johnstown. % miles away, and con-
nected the entire distance by forests.
At Laurelville, on the other side of
the ridge, fire started in twenty acres

That's enough to break your little

marked Teddy Roosevelt, Jr., when
at the sound Of the noon whistle he
emerged dirty and grimy, but smiling,
from the mills Of the Hartford Car
pet company at Thompsonville after
his first effort at real work. Then as
suring the correspondent that he
would not mind it after a while he
hustled along to eat lunch with Avin
II. Higgins, vice president and general
manager of the company.
Teddy was up at 6 o'clock in the
morning and at five minutes to was
vending his way with 5000 other mill
hands to his new job. After bowling
his acknowledgements to dozen type
writer girls in the Office, he covered
up his cheap shoddy work suit with
overalls and went along with William
Lyford, general superintendent, to the
uninviting wool department. For
ten and a half hours each day he will
sort dirty wool according to grades,
then wash, bleach and spin It, all for
the stupendous stipend of s. week.

THOUSANDS DROWNED.
City of Hyderabad In India over
Whelmed by Flood

The catastrophe that overwhelmed
Hyderabad. the capital of the Nizam's S
dominions, and left in its trail thous-
ands of dead, was one of the most
sudden and appalling of many vista
tions on India In the Nizams do
minions are many tanks or lakes, the
largest of which communicates with
the River Alusi. Tremendous rains
caused the lake to overflow, which in
turn burst its banks.
A flood of water sixty feet high
swept down upon the city, carrying
everything before it, and completely
devastating several quarters of the
city. Thousands of tons of water
crashed in dense mass against the
houses, burying under the ruins the
natives to a number that cannot be
even estimated.
Z After the flood subsided, vast Quag-
mire of black mud, out of which arises
a poisonous stencil, marks the spot
where thousands OF people lived
Bands of natives are now searching
this pool for the bodies of their rela-
tives and the scenes are sickening.
Many of the bodies have been re-
covered and all of them are badly
mangled. Many more are buried in
the debris Of masonry and twisted
iron. The food actually wiped out a
district of mile long and half mile
wide.

From out the historic old belfry

there came on Sunday the peals of
a bell to signal the opening OF the
most unique celebration the country
has ever witnessed the advent of
Founders week, the 225th anniversary
OF the founding Of the city by William
Penn.
Profound services of praise and
thanksgiving held in the churches Sun
day will be followed throughout all of
the coming week by a succession Of
pageants which promise to eclipse
anything of the kind heretofore at
tempted. Not since the famous Gen.
tennial celebration Of 1876 have the
citizens of Philadelphia been raised
to such pitch of enthusiasm.
The program, which will not be con-
cluded until next Saturday morning, Is
crowded with interesting and spectac-
ular events. The attractions are of
the widest possible scope, but all have
been arranged with the central idea
of showing the progress of the city
from its founding to the present day.

FLYING MACHINES FOR TRADE
One Of the Wright Brothers Says They
Can be Built at $4,000 Each.

Lorin Wright brother of the airship
inventors, said at Dayton. o.:
"If fifty aeroplanes are to be man.
ufactured for French use they will be
made in France by the syndicate form
ed to purchase the patent for that
country. The aeroplane cannot be
made to sell for $4,000 and leave a
margin of profit. 1t will probably sell
for about $4,000"
Before going to Washington Orville
Wright said he and his brother ex-
pected to engage in the manufacture
of fliers for the market. Their pres
ent small plant was once used as a bi-
cycle factory by the Wright brothers.
There is not in the place a room big
enough to contain an aeroplane COM
plete. In the shop now are all the
parts except the motors for six ma.
chimes.
