A Good Inheritance.

No boy or girl can ever come to be
utterly bad who remembers only love
and tenderness and unselfishness and
sweetness as associated with father
and mother in the old-time home. Give
them manly and womanly examples,
give them training, give them the in
spiration of devoted lives, give. them
these higher, deeper things. Do not
caro- so much as to whether you are
accommodating money, SO that you can
leave them fortune. l really believe
that the chances are against that's be-
ing blessing for boy. But leave
them an accumulated fortune OF men,
cries and inspirations and examples
and hopes, so that they are rich in
brain and heart and soul and service.
Then. IL you happen to leave them the
fortune besides. II they have all these,
the fortune will be shorn OF its posi-
bilities of evil, and will become an
instrument Of the higher and nobler
good.-Minot J. Savage.

FEW DIAMONDS ARE sMuecLED.
Amount SO Brought In Has No Effect
on the Market.

Very few diamonds are smuggled
into this country now, whatever may
have been the case in former days"
declared an agent of large jewelry
house who makes yearly trip to Eu-
rope to purchase precious stones. The
amount that is brought in without
duty Is SO small as to have no effect
on the market. Uncut diamonds are
not taxed. The duty on cut stones Is
but ten per cent. Amsterdam, Holland,
Is the great market for diamonds.
Nearly all the New York dealers who
import buy from that city. Eighty per
cent. of the diamond cutting for the
world is done in Amsterdam. Few
small diamonds are cut In New York
city. There are almost no facilities
here for doing the work The expo
rienced cutters at Amsterdam can turn
out the work cheaper than it can be
done on this side of the water even
when the customs duty is added to the
rates paid the Holland manufacturers.
Large diamonds, about three-quarters
OF carat are cut here, but most of this
work is recruiting for the changes In

whole method. Mr.. MacRae's heart
is in the South. and its wise develop
ment. He comes of a family of en-
gineers and railroad capitalists long
prominent in the state of North Caro-

which the above named gentleman
will speak will be Hon. Harvey Jor-

ton Association and for some years
president of the National Farmers

Nashville, Tenn, Nov. 12.-Mi IS
Susan Lawrence Davis, a hygienic ex-

South, where she has been investi-
eating the hook worm disease.
She is in a position to speak au-
thoritatively concerning only certain

far tend to the conclusion that there
are no more, if as many, hook worm
victims in the South than elsewhere.
She declines to make a positive asser-
tion until she has carried her investi-
cations further.
Miss Davis has spent two months
in Madison and adjoining counties in
Alabama, in investigating hook worm
conditions. Her observations have
covered the States of Texas, Missouri,
Arkansas, Tennessee, Georgia, South
Carolina, Ohio, New York and the Dis.
trict of Columbia. In these States
she has found relatively fewer suffer.
ers from such parasites in the South

Elude Mob BY Ruse.

Alexander was at last found by the
nolice. who succeeded in eluding the
mob by a ruse.
Although the horrors of a race war
had not broken out during the night,
peaceable citizens had begun to fear
that a repetition of the Springfield
riots of last year was imminent. AT
springfield two negroes were lynched,
four other persons killed, and sixty
wounded. With the arrival today OF
armed troops it is thought that further
lioting will be avoided.
The 1000 men roaming the streets
nm fill daybreak had access to many
saloons. which remained open all
night. Mayor Parson and the chlei
of police were unable to close the
saloons. because they were shut up
at home by the mob. Soldiers OF the
Cairo militia finally went to guard the
homes of the municipal officials and
kept the rioters in some restraint.
