Blowing Out Stumps.

About fifty people gathered to see
the stump blasting demonstration given
by the DUPONT Powder Co. at Gortner
on Saturday. The weather being so
fine many were 10th to leave their plant
ing and lose the time but all of those
present went away fully repaid for
their time and trouble. 1t was plainly
shown that removing stumps with dyn-
amite is perfectly safe and sure and
effective method. Stumps of all sizes
and descriptions were removed and in
pieces small enough for boy to handle
This makes the trouble of picking them
up such an easy job that any one can do
it, while being removed by a stump
puller you still have the stump
even IN worse shape tnan in the ground.
The charges were put off in two ways,
first by the old method of fuse and cap
and later by the use of a little electric
battery which allows several shots to be
fired simultaneously. In using the last
named method the stumps We're shot by
placing small charges under several Of
the roots and bringing the largest
stumps out clean. After shooting
stumps which had been cut for three
years or more the people moved to a
, newly cleared lot and asked the demon
stratOr to take out glade white oak
/ about four feet in diameter. They all
| expressed doubt as to the result Four
holes were placed at different points
under the roots and there was not a
piece of the roots left after the shot.
The spectators next asked to have a
standing tree shot out. They picked
the tree and it looked as if they had a
job set up but after some work in get
ting the holes in and the demonsta-
tor being ready the button on the lit
tie battery was pushed and out came
the entire tree taking the stump and
roots out as clean as though the tree
had already been out. This ended the
demonstration. During the afternoon
Is stumps and the tree were ia en- out
at an average cost of "a cents The
cost exclusive of the last two shots
would have been about u cents per
stump. The time consumed was less
than six hours. All expressed them
selves pleased with the demonstration
and there is but little doubt that a
stump in the vicinity of Gortner will
| soon be unknown.

Hrs. nellie nichael Rathbun.

From the Athens (O.) Messenger
of last Thursday the following addition
al facts concerning the death of Mrs.
F. E. Rathbun, of Piedmont, formerly
of Oakland, whose demise was noted in
the columns last week, is CLEANED:
The news of the sad death of Mrs.
nellie Michael Rathbun, aged &c, early
Wednesday evening, caused a gloom
over this community, in which she had
lived for several years, and where she
had many friends and acquaintance.
Her death occurred at the home of
her aunt, Mrs. l.. G. WOrstell, where
she was brought a month ago suffering
with intestinal sarcoma. In December
of last year she was taken i'll at her
home in Piedmont, W. Va. 1t was
speedily seen that her illness was seri-
Gus. An operation some weeks ago was
of no avail. Since her removal to Ath-
ems she gradually sank, and for several
days the end had been very near. Death
relieved her suffering early Wednesday
evening.
On Dec. 81, 1905, she married Prof.
Franklin E. Rathbun, of Oakland, Md,
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs L. G. Wor-
stell, of this city. Since their marriage
they have lived in West Nirginia, Prof.
Rathbun now being superintendent Of
the public schools. Prior to her mar
riage, Mrs. Rathbun attended the Ath-
ems high school and the Ohio University
making her home with her aunt, Mrs.
L. G. Worstell. For a time she was
employed in the Offices of Grosvenor,
Jones & Worstell. She was always a
popular young woman, and her death is
keenly felt by very large circle of
friends.
She is survived by a husband, Prof.
F. E. Rathbun mother, Mrs. Mary
Michael, of The Plains; three sisters,
Mrs. NJ. E. Twiss, of Athens; Mrs Her
bert Mcdonald and Mrs. Edmund Ship
ley of The Plains; two brothers, Ed
ward C. Michael and Raymond Michael,
of The Plains.
The funeral services will be held Fri
day afternoon at o'clock at the Wor-
stell home, conducted by Rev. CHEERING
ton, assisted by Rev. F. M. Swinehart.
Interment will be made in the Union
Street cemetery.

UNION VETERANS AFTER CROTHERS
Cut OFF Fund for Burial of Soldiers
of North and South.

The annual state encampment of the
Department of Maryland, Grand Army
of the Republic, which opened at Will
son Post Hall, Gay and High streets,
Baltimore, last Friday morning closed
Saturday afternoon with the election
and installation of officers for tire ensu-
ing year and the adoption of a resolution
regrettIng the action of Governor Croth-
ers in Withholding his signature from the
bill appropriating 81, 500 for the burial
of INDECENT soldiers of both Union and
Confederate armies.
AS originally introduced by Col.
George w. F. Vernon and Col. James
Campbell, past department commanders
of the Grand Army in Maryland, the
resolution severely criticized the Cover
nor for his west pocket veto" of the
appropriation after it had unanimously
passed both houses of the General AS
sembly, and warm debate took place
The appropriation began with the ad-
minstration of the late Governor
LOwndes, and was continued through
the administrations of Governor Smith
and Governor Warfield There was no
excuse for the action of the present
Governor, yet the more conservative
veterans at the encampment felt that it
would do no good to pass resolutions of
censure. Gen. John R. King and Mr..
c. A. +. Spamer had them tempered
down to "a sincere regret that the Gov
error could not see his way clear to ap-
prove the appropriation. In this form
the resolutions were finally passed. A
copy of them will be sent to Governor
Crothers. 1t was stated that during the
past year eight old veterans died and
that their burial expenses had to be
paid by surviving comrades in the de-
partment.

A LASTING EVIL.

The evil that men do when they man
ufacture an artificial scarcity of food
stuffs lives long. Corners may be sue
cessful or unsuccessful, and the daring
gamblers who contrive to bring them
about may gain fortunes or go to ruin,
all within few weeks or months, but
if these operations chance to affect re-
tail prices lasting wrong has been ac-
complished. Those who look closely
into the causes of the increased cost of
living, especially in cities, find that
there is always an excuse for higher
prices and rarely a reason having suffic-
tent force to carry prices down. A
blighted crop, strike, corner, tenn
porary demand in excess of supply or a
new fashion may explain exorbitant
charges. These conditions speedily pass
away, and yet it is not often that prices
return to their former levels.
If the breadmakers shall be compelled
by the present manipulation of wheat
and flour to reduce the size of the loaf
or to increase the price, it will be many
day before normal conditions can be
restored, even with cheap wheat and
-four in the market. The man who corn
ers food not only robs millions, but he
makes it possible for many others to do
the same. The wrong which he per-
petuates is continuing and cumulative.
In many cases it has no end. Gambling
in money and gambling in food can be
stopped whenever the people reject the
economic falsehood that betting on the
markets is necessary to the proper reg
ulation of prices, to the protection of
capital and to the conservation of COM
modities.

April 80 ArbOr Day

Governor Crothers has announced
that Friday, April 30, will be designa-
ted as Arbor Day. This is a school hol-
lday rather than State one, and the
day is set aside to arouse the interest of
children in trees and flowers.
Arbor;day has become an institution
in American life, and very few, if any,
States fail to authorize its observance.
More recently there has been organized
a national association, with the view of
promoting interest in country life. 1t
has prepared booklets which will be
distributed this year. The Governor
said that he hoped these booklets will
be generally used in the observance of
the day.

Doing Things Claimed.

Advertising pays and pays good and
plenty, writes Milton ]. Plat in Fame,
if the thing advertised is capable of
doing the things claimed for it, and bet
ter still if it does a little more. Some
articles on which money is spent for
publicity go down to, oblivion where
they belong-because they offer yard
and deliver only thirty inches. There
is no reason for their existence and out
they go. The public won't have them.
The advertiser wants his money and
blames the mediums hopeless
minority, it may be supposed, judging
from the spread of advertising, and the
expansion of its influences, The other
kind has the call. Doing things, doing
things claimed, delivering the goods,
they get the popularity. They get adj
vertising compounded-and they deserve
it all. Let the disgruntled one SIT down
and think 1t over for a moment. If his
his head is screwed on right and his
gray matter is in working order, he will
lose no time in coming to the conclusion
that doing things applies as well to
things as to men, and that the way to
get all that is coming to you is to get
busy along the right line.
