LOOT CASH REGISTER

Quoted by Charles Koos, at sos Clinton

in the front part of the bakeshop was
rifled of its contents. amounting to s26.
The robbery occurred at 2:S0 p. m. mi
Mr.. Koos is at a loss to account for its
occurrence while his employees were so
close at hand
The front door had been left open
n entry could have been made In
that way. but the front part of the
shop is in full view of those who were
working in the rear. and neither Mr..

Peace in the Coal Fields

The anthracite miners and operators have come together and the old agree ment with a few unimportant modifi- cations for three years will doubtless be signed today. The union will not be officially recognized in the new agreement, but 1t is, after all, peace pact between the operators as body and the miners as another body.
 The parties to this agreement turn out about 6O,O0O,00O tons of hard coal a year, and the signing of it is pretty good evidence that there are to be no coal mining troubles this year.
 The new agreement will expire in the height of a presidential election in 1912, and it is difficult to say what the situation will be at that time. It is needless, however, to anticipate. Suf- ficient for the day is the evil thereof
 The renewed agreement is practical ly the one that grew out of President Roosevelt's mediation and the commits sion of 1903. It was renewed in 1906, and today it will doubtless be extend ed three years longer. The signing of new agreement will promote indus trial activity, for it really means that no strikes or lockouts are to be in- dulged in this year-none in the hard coal districts until 1912, which can safely be left to take care of itself.

NAVAL STORES
 COMPANY TRIAL

Savannah, Ga, April 2s-With jury ready, the prosecution and defense hay ing outlined tiher contentious and the first or mass of documentary evidence having been introduced, the "turpentine trust" case, at the adjournment of to- days session of the United States court here, had reached the testimony stage and it is expected that the first of sew eral score witnesses will be placed on the stand tomorrow.
 Despite that the case will contain much that is technical and that the questions asked prospective jurors in the eligibility testimony were search ing, 15 minutes sufficed to fl lthe jury box.
 The defendants are the American Naval Stores company. the National Transportation and Terminal company of New Jersey and six officers of the former, who are charged with conspir acy in restraint of trade and other charges of bribery, fraudulent grading of naval stores and the diverting of naval stores from it's natural port to another.
 Assistant District Attorney Alex Ak erman outlined the governments case while Judge Samuel B. Adams spoke for the defense. In view of the re- cent efforts of Senator Taliaferro of Florida to have pasesd a naval stores inspection bill by Congress, the state ment of Judge Adams that had the all | legged diversion of naval stores been | from Savannah to Jacksonville instead | of vice versa the act would have been 1 commendable instead of subject for a criminal indictment, is interesting.

Return Home Of the WriehtS

After amply demonstrating that heavier-than-air machines can fly, the Wrights are coming home Their flights on the other side of the sea are completed, and scarcely one of them was unsuccessful. They attempted nothing extra hazardous. All they de- sired to do was to show that motor driven machines can fly. Once this is demonstrated beyond doubt or cavil the presumption is that improvement will follow improvement until man has conquered the air as fully as he has the water
 The thoughtful, practical Wrights have weeded out the gas bags except possibly fer use in the armies, and even there the aeroplanes will yet be used. Between aeroplanes and electri- cal extensions the century promises to be fruitful one. Long before it is ended the sky will be full of aero- planes, and electricity will have be- sume the chef power
 When the air is fully conquered the Wytghts will be duly honored and this

Factors In Business Progress

The cotton manufacturers are turn Ing out goods that command rising prices. There may be depression in the copper market and in steel prod ucts, but there is none in the goods turned out by the cotton mills.
 Those who are saying times are hard have a great deal to explain away. If times are hard, why, for example, are bank clearings increasing? They are actually above those for April, 1907, when general trade was booming. Large bank clearings certainly mean that a great deal of business is being carried on, and the pessimists cannot readily explain them away. Gross rail- road earnings, too, are increasing. Im- migrants are arriving freely. The vol ume of immigration is three times larger than it was in April last year. Surely these people would not come here if they could not find employ nent. The prices of stocks, both rail- road and industrial, are going up. The grumber should explain away these things before he makes more predic- tions.
 There are drawbacks, 1t is true. The balance of trade is actually running against us. This, however, is tempor- nry. It Is due to immense imports in anticipation of higher rates in the new tariff bill, and this in turn maintains gold exports. These things will cure themselves as soon as a tariff bill is passed. No one anticipates an imme- diate boom, but the situation justifes D hopeful feeling pending the maturity of the country's four great crops, wheat, cotton, corn and oats.

MILK IN SIBERIA.

h winter time milk goes to the buyer in a chunk instead of a quart, says a Glasgow paper. The people in Siberia buy their milk frozen, and for convent ence 1t Is allowed to freeze about a stick, which forms a handle to carry it by. The milkman leaves on chunk or two, as the case may be, at the houses of his customers. The children in Irkutsk, instead of crying for a drink of milk, cry for bite of mix. The people In winter time do not say, Be careful not to spill the milky" but 'rBe careful not to break the milk" Broken milk is bet ter than spilled milk, though, because there is an opportunity to save the pieces. A quart of frozen milk on stick is very formidable weapon in the hand of an angry man or boy. as it is possible to knock a person down with it. Irkutsk people hang their milk on hooks, instead of putting it in pans, though, of course, when warm spring weather comes pans or pals must be used. as the milk begins to melt.

country will be given first place. They are not boastful. They worked in secrecy until they had achieved vie- tory over the air, and no one need doubt their willingness or their ca pacity to serve the world. Barring ac- cidents, it is safe to assume that they will be the means of great develop ment in aviation in the next five years. All in all, they are an honor to Amer ica, and they come home to complete home tests at Fort Myer and to con duct their aeroplane factory in Day ton, Ohio

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
Federal Building Love-Maker.

Judge Horn is one of the most ac- complished love-makers in Birmingham . said a lawyer who frequents the federal building. Judge Horn is quite a firt, also. He never wastes his eloquenoe upon an unworthy cause.
 "The other day he had just finished pouring out his heart in poetry to one of the beautiful stenographers, and after avowing to her that she was his eternal inspiration, he went into the hall and used exactly the same line of dope with another of the fair sex When the first lady overheard him, and called him to taw, he replied, Oh, l was just practicing on her.
 Judge Horn not only pours forth his poetic soul at the feet of fair women, all of whom he says he loves, but he is one of the truest worshipers of nature, and his poem on spring is one of the most quoted in the federal building"

Birminnham,s Fame.

",rhe fame of Birmingham, England, ap- pears to be rapidly giving way to the fame of Alabama's Magic City" said a well-known distributing clerk of the post office department yesterday.
 Nearly every night mail is received in the local postoffice addressed to Birming ham, England, being sent to Birmingham, Ala, by mistake. Many of these letters come from abroad, some coming from Germany and France and other of the na- tions across the water.
 This it seems to me, is an example of Birminghams worldwide fame. When it comes to the matter of mail being bundled up in the countries abroad and sent to the American city, when 1t should go to Eng land, it looks very much as if Birming- ham, England, is less famous abroad than it's namesake, our thriving Alabama citVh
