number of poor children around
Climax and given them clothes,
shoes, etc, and sent them to school.
He is an unusually fine lumber
man, and, it is said, could go into a
swamp and select at a glance any
timber of value there, often finding
trees that others had passed over
There was no fiap-trap about any Of
his buildings, everything looks as if
it was meant to stay, and his mill
at Climax is one of the best built
and most solid in the country.
1t is considered strange that Oliver
did not try to get away when he was
first carried to cambridge, as he was
not put in Jail for several days and
was only under a sort of surveillance.
When the sheriff from Mississippi ar
rived there he told them to put Oliver
in a dungeon if they had one, and
put all the chains they could on him,
and that even then when he got
ready he would get out. Travelling
men continue to bring in wonderful
tales about him, and probably no
other case has ever been quite so
much talked of in this part of the
country.

The Military Will Not Participate and Politicians Will
Be Asked to Take Back Seat
From the Columbus Ledger.

From the Columbus Ledger.
The Inauguration of Hon Joseph
NJ. Brown as governor of Georgia
this month is to be directed and con-
Quoted by the plain people, and not
the rich and those prominent in high
society, as heretofore.
The military will not even be asked
20 participate. and the politicians
will be invited to take a back seat.
The plain people are coming to the
front, and will have charge of the
proceedings. Dressed in brown jeans
suits they will gather at the capital

necessary to emphasize the fact that
Mr.. Brown is their special represent
ativc.
Mr.. Brown himself Waald like to
avoid all display. # he could have
his way he would walk alone to the
capital take the oath of office, re-
tire to the executive mansion and an
nounce himself ready to attend to the
states business. But, according TO
the Savannah News, his friends and
admirers in all parts of the state
will not permit it to be Just that way.
They don't intend there shall be eX-
pensive displays and fdhctiOns, but
they do insist that the fact shall be
made clear that in him the plain
peOple-the people who are the bone
and siheW of the state-have a friend
who will look out for their interests
and will see to it that the states af-
fairs are administered economically
and with an eye single to the public
good.
> Within the last few years, owing
to the increasing wealth of the coun-
try, the movement towards extrava-
giant expenditures has been tremen-
dous. The cost of running the ma

less than a decade, and the eXpendi-
lures of states, counties and NUM-

of living has increased so greatly
that they must have bigger wages,
higher salaries and greater incomes
to meet their expenses. 1t isn't so
much because the cost of living has
increased as because of the eXtrava-
gance that has entered into every
phase of life
And the people are no happier
than they were when they lived more

much larger, don't come as near

ROYAL CRADLES.
Some Old Ones Are Used by Many
Families of Nobility.


Families of Nobility.
If by any possibility an exhibition
could be arranged of the royal era
dies of Europe it would be a source
of delight to the art connoisseur.
The cot in which the Queen of Hol-
lands baby sleeps is the one in
which her own infant days were
passed. The Queen of Italy has
used for her children a magnificent
silver cradle, presented to her by the
Prince of Montenegro 1t is in solid
silver, and weighs over forty pounds.
On the top may be seen the arms of
Italy and Montenegro, and at the
bottom a laughing Cupid. The cost
OF the cradle was more than 500.
The cradle in which the Empress
Eugene nursed the prince imperial
was designed and carved by Froment
Meurice. The body is in rosewood,
inlaid with enamels, surrounded
with old silver ornaments and chisel-
ed bronze garlands. At the head is
a statue in silver of Old Paris, hold
ing the imperial crown. The cradle
was presented to the Empress by the
city just before the Prince was born,
and few years ago she gave it back
TO the civic authorities.

The Number of Converts Today Prob

Baron Takahila has a wrong con-

he says that christianity is spread
ing in that country" remarked E. F.
Snodder of Chicago, formerly in the
consular service in Japan.
Il lived in Japan for a number
of years and made a close study of
the work of christian missionaries
in the east. The most ardent work
ers for christianity will not contend
that the number of converts is in
creasing. l think the number today
will not exceed $4,000, and they are
mostly persons who have become
christians for the opportunity it af-
fords them to acquire an education.
They are in most cases students in
the colleges supported by various
christian denominations.
Christianity, l believe, will never
prevail in Japan. But that does not
mean that the japanese are an un-
civilized people. The religion they

Sensational Occurrence at Bryn Mawr
College Exercises.

NOl1pSS EXERCISES
A criticism of France made by
David Starr Jordan, president of
Stanford University, at Bryn Mawr
College commencement, led to an in
terruption in the exercises and the
angry departure OF Prof. Foulet of
the French department of the col
lege from the platform, where he
had sat with the rest of the faculty
after he had branded DR.. Jordan as a
fabricator.
Prof. JOrdans subject was "War
and Mankind" He dwelt at length
upon the effect of war upon Spain,
Italy and France, and as a climax
declared that France was admitted
by Frenchmen to be a decadent ma
ton as the result of the many wars
in which it has taken part.
The statement was made with en-
phasis, and DR.. Jordan paused a mo-
ment to give it force Prof. Foulet
went to the front of the stage, visi-
bly, agitated, and turning squarely in
front of the speaker raised his hand
and screamed: That is a Iiel 1t
is not so; France is not decadent! ."
There was a moment of suspense
and then murmur. Prof. Foulet
bowed low to DR.. Jordan and walked
down from the stage and out of the
building. DR.. Jordan then sal |:
IF there are no more interrupt
tions l will continue" There was
silence until the speaker concluded
his address.

was the man who pulled the after
oar of the captains boat, then known
as a cockboat. "Cockboat" is a cor
ruption of the word "coracle," and,
as many people know, the coracle is
a small round boat used for fishing
on some rivers in Wales, such as the
Wye and Usk. So coxswain comes to

Welsh
Commodore is simply the Italian
commandatore, or commander, and
naval cadet was originally the French
"capdet," which, going a step further
back has the same origin as the word
captain. The reason of the apparent
anomaly is that all naval cadets were
originally younger sons of noble fami-
lies who before obtaining their COM
missions served as privates.
