Albert II. Patrick has been In the

about the guava is that the seed from
the same guava will not produce the
seme fruit the second time. Take
seeds from the same fruit. plant them
and you will have almost as many
different varieties OF the fruit as the
number OF seeds planted. The best
way TO get a second tree is to take
the branches from the guava bush.

The Lakeland News draws atten.
tion to one point in which the present
census law differs from its predeces.
sors wherein il will be more within
the range of probability that an ac.
curate count may be made in Florida:
1t was stated, by inference. in these
columns last week, that the federal
census would be taken next July.
This is erroneous. The census law
requires that the enumeration OF the
population shall be taken as of the
18th day of April. 1910. Heretofore
the count has been made in July. The
change in time is an advantage to
Florida, as in July many citizens are
absent from the State. and might not
be counted, but in April the full.
permanent population is present and
should be accounted for" The
Times-Union fell into the same error
of supposing IL would be taken in
the summertime and is glad to be
corrected.-Times-Cnion Short Talks.

Senator Foraker and Chas. P.
Taft withdrew from the Ohio Sena-

ton will be selected. Foraker, a
really able man, was knocked out
because he had received large legal
fees from corporations while he was
a Senator. Mr. Taft's only claim
was in spending money to elect his
brother. Somebody's wise council
prevailed in the withdrawal of these
men, and it is very probable that
President-elect Taft could tell who
advised it.

SAN DIEGO Is STRONG
FOR GOOD ROADS BONDS
$t,25o,ooo VOTED BY COUNTY FOR
HIGHWAYS
Returns Indicate That Election Was
Won Four to One-Personnel of
Commission Had Public's
Confidence

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 3-The people of
this county voted today to issue bonds
to the amount of S1,25O,OOO for the pur-
pose of building $50 miles Of first-class
highways A two-thirds vote was
necessary. The returns are not COM
plete, but those received make it GER
tain that the bonds had more than the
required two-thirds and probably car
ried by four to one.
In a few interior towns there was a
majority against the bonds, but in some
others they carried without dissent
ing vote Generally speaking, the coun-
try went strongly in the affirmative,
and in this city the majorities for the
bonds are overwhelming.
The money voted today will be eX-
pended under direction of a highway
commission composed of John D.
Spreckels, E. w. Scripps and A. G.

1t is to the personnel Of the commits

ITALIAN WOMEN HOPEFUL
FOR SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT
Report of National Committee Shows
That Even Southern Europe Is
Awakening to Issue

ROME, Aug. 3.-The national con-
mittee for female suffrage, which was
founded four years ago, but which has
much increased its activity during the
last few months, has just been giving
a public account of it's stewardship,
which is of interest as showing the de-
velopment of the woman's movement
in Italy.
The committee points out, on the
basis of official statistics, that even
in Italy. where women are not sup>
posed to be as advanced as in more
northern lands, there are 661 ,774 of them
engaged in earning their living in the
manufacture of textile fabrics, 400,-
94S In domestic service, and 63,S73 in
the teaching profession, besides tele-
graph and telephone girls.
1t shows that the Italian legislation
on the work of women and children
is one sided and inadequate, and the
position of a woman in the eye of the
law is inferior to that of man. italy,
for example, has no married woman's
property act.
The report goes on to describe how,
for the first time at the general cleo
tion of this year, italian women took
an active part in politics, urging the
electors to vote for candidates favora-
BILE to female suffrage. The next op-
portunity for similar action on their
part will be the Roman municipal cleo
tion of next season, when the issues be-
fore the electors-high rents, dear food,
and the question of religious educa-
tion-Will affect women quite as much
as men.
Marchesa Pellicano has also given a
lecture on her experience at the recent
womans congress in London, praising
the services rendered by Mrs Fawcett,
and GXOraSSino the hGna that italian
women may soon obtain the same legal
rights as their sisters in some other
countries. A parliamentary committee
is at present sitting to consider the
question, and Sgnor Giolitti has re-
ceived a deputation of ladies.

COURT EXAMINES
EXPERT WITNESS
IN THAW'S CASE
DOCTOR BAKER SAYS PRlS-
ONER is INSANE
DECLARES SLAYER OF WHITE is
MENACE TO PUBLIC
Defendants Manner on Stand Shows
Extreme Nervousness-only Issue
Between Doctors Is Degree
of Insanity

WHITE PLAINS, \, Y, Aug. 8.-Three
allenists united in the supreme court to-
day TO make it unpleasant for Harry X.
Thaw, who killed stanford white and
was adjudged insane, but now demands
release from the Matteawan asylum as a
mentally normal man.
All three testified that he was insane,
and when Thaw took the stand briefly
after some disconcerting testimony, he
was plainly ruffied and nervous. but Mr.
Jerome dismissed him after few COM
paratively unimportant questions.
OF the alienists who testified DR.. Flint,
Or. william Hirsch and Or. Amos T.
Baker. the last named gave testimony
of the most importance. He is acting
superintendent of Matteawan. Justice
Mills took a hand in questioning him.
Dr. Baker said that in his opinion Thaw
was insane now and dangerous person
to be at large.
