Too Many Dogs.

"Can a married man have a dozen
or more dogs about his residence, to
the annoyance of his wife?'
This was answered indirectly by
Judge Brent, in Chicago when he re-
fused a decree of divorce to Mrs. M.
Sharp from her husband, Harry G.
Sharp, an electrician. The first act
of cruelty related by the witness oc-
Cured on July IA, 1907, when they
were returning from trip across the
lake. Counsel for Mrs. Sharp then
began to bring out evidence concern
ing the dogs.
"He had visitors in four hours to
talk about dogs. He never found
time to talk to me affectionately. For
a time after we were married he kiss
ed me as mechanically as he swal-
lowed, but he was careful Of his
dogs"

Will Probably Go Free.

Greenwood, Oct. 29.-The negroes
arrested some weeks ago in connec-
ton with the s'Ninety-Six affair."" be-
ing charged with conspiracy against
certain white citizens of Ninety-Six,
will not be tried at this term of the
Court of General Sessions. In fact
they will probably never be brought
to trial. They were released a short
time ago on bond, but these bonds
have been cancelled, and they are
now out on their own recognizance.
The negro preacher, the Rev. John
n.y. Dean, who was the cause of the
muss, is still in Jail, andwill probably
have to remain there until next
March anyway.

Killed by Negro Boy.

Savannah, Ca, Oct. 28.-While
sitting in a rear room of her home at
Pooler, 10 miles from Savannah, to-
day Mrs. w. E. Terrence, wife of an
engineer, was fired on and instantly
killed by Solomon Riley, negro boy.
The boy was arrested.
This afternoon a party of 80 men,
bent upon lynching the negro, left
Savannah by train for Pooler. Ar
irving there, however, the crowd
found that the negro had been
brought to Savannah by Deputy Sher-
if R. w. Wescott. The officer had
concealed the boy beneath lap robe
and driven into the city in a buggy.
Riley is in Jail here.

SAVED FROM MATERNAL WRATH
Boys Fervent Prayer Was Answered
In the Nick Of Time.

A suburbanlte Is fond Of telling this
story OF his five-year-old son Bobby.
Being OF an inquiring turn Of mind
the youngster one day managed to
turn on both faucets In the bathtub
to see what would happen. II CHANGED
that the stopper was In place, and the
tub rapidly filed up, to the great de-
light of Bobby. Finally, however, the
tub became 80 full that It threatened
to overflow on to the floor. and Bobby.
having proper respect for the mater
nal slipper, became frightened and
tried vainly to turn off the water. Be-
Ing unable to, for some reason, he
gazed tearfully at the ever-rising flood.
and then, mindful both Of his religious
training and the occasional visits OF
the plumber, he plunged down on his
knees, and his elder sister. who hap
pened to be passing at the moment,
heard him exclaim, fervently:
20, Lord, please stop this water
running! And, o, Lord, II you can't
do 1t, please send somebody that can!"
His prayer was answered, for his
sister rose to the occasion and turned
off the water and temporarily saved
Bobby from the much.feared slipper.

Taft Boom Was Born in Barber Shop

in his eye as often as he had it in his
mouth. The shaving of the president
and the midday cultivation of the
boom of Taft started at / p. m. and
lasted half hour.
Taft, when he was in Washington,
often saw the president several times
in the morning. But Mr.. Roosevelt
had many things on his mind then and
no leisure. For an hour or longer aft
er 1880 his outer office was filled with
men who had appointments.
At the one o'clock shaving time
came the first respite. The room in
which the president was shaved is a
small, narrow one, between the presi.
dents Office and that of Secretary
Loeb. 1t is used as an anteroom to
both Offices. On the wall is a long,
framed photograph of squadron of
battleships.
At this window is a low-set leather
upholstered chair. Against the wall
at one side a writing desk.
When the time for shaving arrived
the low, leather covered chair was
pulled out from the wall. A neat foot
rest Of two steps was produced from
under the writing desk and set in front
of the chair.
Roosevelt took his place. Then
came Taft, who pulled up another
chair alongside.
When Taft was away Roosevelt oft
en- received others in the shaving peri
cd. Sometimes the correspondents
talked with him there. Sometimes it
was Hon. Jimmy Garfield, he of the
classic brow.

iWiley's Poison Squad End Their Test

thought by scientific men to be objec-
tionable because containing caffeine or
other injurious substances, there is a
wide field for the students to expert
ment.
One of the most interesting posi-
bilities is the determination of wheth-
err or not feungreek, the famous old
world herb remedy, which is part of
most medicines advertised to increase
flesh, is really what it is said to be,
and will accomplish the purposes for
which 1t is advertised. A class in
feungreek is said to be one of the pos
sibilities of the early future.
Condition foods for animals also
offer a field of endeavor that DR..
Wiley may yet explore to determine
if the claims made for the various
brands of food are really true.
The experiments conductedrby DR..
Wiley are the first large experiments
of the sort conducted in the scien-
tific world. The classes, which were
started in the fall of 1902, have al
ready gone through a variety Of ex-
periments. Borax and boric acid were
the first to receive attention, eulphuric
acid, benzote, formaldehyde and cop
per salts have also been fully tested
as to their effects on the human sys-
tenn when taken with food.

Wholesale Prices Are Highest in Years

cent. higher than the average for the
year 1907.
When the commodities are divided
into nine groups every group shows an
increase in price in 1907 as compared
with 1906. For farm products taken
as a whole this increase was greatest,
namely. 1913 per cent; for food, as
per cent; for clothes and clothing, Sc
per cent; for fuel and lighting, "a
per cent; for metals and implements,
61 per cent; for lumber and building
materials, 40 per cent; for drugs and
chemicals, 8.3 per cent; for house
furnishing goods, 6.S per cent, and
for the miscellaneous group, five per
cent.
The effect Of the money stringency
in the latter part of the last year is
reflected in the decrease recorded in
all commodities during November and
December, the average price showing
a decrease of 3.5 per cent. below Oc-
tober. OF the 25S articles for which
wholesale prices were recorded 172
showed an increase in the average
prices for 1907 as compared with 1906;
35 showed no change and 81 showed
a decrease.

Lequmes in the Garden.

We hear a great deal about growing
legumes in the fields, so that the sod
can be plowed under and the land
enriched with nitrogen. In the gar
den the growing of legumes for this
purpose is as profitable as elsewhere.
The peas or beans may be rotated
with other crops as to location and
so made to do service in turn on all
parts of the garden. If beans were
grown on one plot last year, grow
some plant not legume on that plot
this year. These legumes make good
roots and have lcavy foliage, says
Farmers Review. They shade the
ground and help the soil organisms
to develop in that way, and
one of the soil organisms that
are particularly adapted to the
roots of legumes are enabled to col
lect very large quantities of nitrogen
from the air. A large part of this nj
trogen is in the leaves, roots and
stems, which rot and are then washed
back into the SOIL

WASHINGTON. - The nursery Of
w Taft's boom for the presidential
nomination was room in the execu-
tive offices of the White House
grounds, where President Roosevelt,
before he left for his home at Oyster
Bay, was shaved each work day. Here,
when the boom was green and ten
der thing, its first young shoots pushed
to the light. Here it was coaxed to
sturdier growth. Here, in full blossom,
it was talked over and admired.
Frank Hitchcock was the official and
the president the unofficial manager
of the Taft boom. The president, at
these heart-to-heart talks with the can
didate, was in a barber chair. A GER
tain White House messenger welded
the razor and lather brush. 1t was the
only part of the day when official bust
ness did not claim all of Roosevelt's
time. 1t was Taft's one chance to do
most of the talking.
Even then, the barber had to be
watchful, and quick to snatch away
the brush or blade. When T. R. wants
to talk he sometimes forgets he is be-
ing shaved. If the BARRIERS hand had
not gamblers quickness, the presi-
dent would have had the lather brush

TOMATOES FOR CANNING.
Suggestions for the Extensive Raising
of the Vegetable.

l planted one ounce of tomato seed
in our garden the middle of last
March In open ground and / think
every seed came up. The young
plants were looking well, but were
killed down by frost the first of
April. By the last of the month they
had all come out again and were large
enough to set out, and l planted the
5000 plants which grew from the
ounce Of seed, writes a correspondent
of Farm and Home. The weather be-
ing favorable, almost every plant
lived.
The land on which they were plant
ed was very poor and sandy, with a
clay subsoil. l first broke it deep in
March with a one-horse turn pillow,
turning under a lot of weeds and
grass. About two weeks before set
ting out the plants l laid out rows
with an eight-inch shovel and put in
commercial fertilizer Analysing two
per cent. nitrogen, ten per cent. phos-
phoric acid and three per cent. potash,
at the rate of 600 pounds per acre. l
covered this fertilizer by running over
the rows once with two five-inch
scooters on a double stock, which
ridged the soil level with the surface.
The rows were three feet apart and
the plants were set two feet in the
row.
The cultivation was begun as soon
as the plants were firmly settled in
the sell and they were given three
plowings and two hoeings. The last
blowing was given about the time the
tomatoes begun to form freely on the
plants. I made a mistake by not
giving them four plowings instead Of
three and by not applying nitrate Of
soda at the rate of 200 pounds per
acre at the last blowing. By failing to
do this the plants stopped growing,
most of the leaves dropped off and
over half the tomatoes were scalded
by the hot sun, rendering them unfit
for canning. We got over 400 two
pound cans of tomatoes from this
patch of about one-fourth acre

Dummy Used to Make Test.

Walking day and night, without a
single stop, dummy soldier is max
ing 100000 steps every "a hours in an
endurance test to determine the life
of several new cartridge belts which
are under consideration by the board
of ordnance and fortification of the
army. The dummy's tour of duty is at
the Rock Island Qll) arsenal. The
dummy rs the size of an average sol
der BY special mechanical appa-
ratus ii is made to walk, with the
guidance of wire cable, as though on
sentinel duty, in circle in one end of
hall The mechanism is such as to
give the dummy the same motion as
would be experienced by the average
soldier in walking About the waist
of the figure are strapped the various
belts, one at time, which are being
tested. Each is filed with the regula-
tion number of rounds of service cart
ridges, the principal test being made
with the sharp-nose bullets, to deter
mine how long 1t will take for these
to wear through the pockets of the
belts.
