JUDGE MANN REPLIES.
Declines to Accept Challenge o
Harry st. George Tucker.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va, June 3.-Judge Will
liam Hodges Mann. candidate for COVER
nor. yesterday replied to the challenge of
Harry ST George Tucker for series of
debates. Judge Mann declines to accept,
saving that he is opposed to such meet
ings. that they are inimical to the party
and undemocratic. He declares that he
desires to discuss the issues of the cam
paign, that Mr.. Tucker has violated all
precedent in the one meeting held. and
that as he has mapped out his plan and
arranged his program he will not engage
in joint meetings.
Judge Mann charges that Mr.. Tucker
has deliberately misrepresented him in
several statements and that he persists
in doing so after his attention has been
called thereto and the record produced.
He declared that Mr.. Tucker was disloyal
to the party in several instances and
ridicules Mr.. Tucker for trying to excuse
himself from service in the democratic
party by declaring that his college duties
interfered. Judge Mann denies the truth
of Mr. fuckers statement in several in
stances The statement contains charges
against Mr.. Tucker while he was in Con-
greSS.

United States Senator William Lind.
say, jurist and statesman, died at his
home here this morning shortly after
6 o'clock, after weeks of battling
against the dark angel Of death. The
end came peacefully and was no sur.
prise to the loved ones who watched
faithfully about the bedside.
For ten days the venerable states
man, regarded by many as the most
learned and able lawyer ever produced
by Kentucky, had practically been al
the point of dissolution. His tremndeous
vitality and sturdy constitution had
resisted repeatedly when it seemed
that tired nature could hold out nc
longer. Uraemic poisoning was the
beginning of the complications which
undermined his system until nothing
further could be done.

The Oldest Living TripIets.

According to Congressman Charles
II. Cowles, of North Carolina, the
oldest living triplets in the world are
the Gibbs, born in Wilkesboro, n. c.,
May 2, 1888, and are now in their
seventy-seventh year. One of the
triplets, William Washington Gibbs,
resides in Atlanta, Ga, and the other
two, Robert Jackson Gibbs and
Thomas Lafayette Gibbs, live at
Boomer, N. c., within a few miles of
the place Of their birth. The three
brothers are hale, hearty, industrious,
sober and splendid citizens, in spite of
the fact that they endured the hard

same company of the same regiment
in many battles. Bethel was the first
real battle of the war between the
States, Gettysburg the crest of Con-
federate aggression, and Appomattox,
the last of that struggle. The Gibbs
triplets, in common with all North
Carolinians, are proud of the inscrip-
ton on the States battlefield monu-
ments, which reads: "First at Bethel,
farthest at Gettysburg, and last at
Appomattox." The triplets descend
ed from long-liged families ON both
sides. Their father lived to a good
old age and their mother died only a
few years ago at the age of almost
ninety-one. "Aunt Carolina" Grinton,
(colored), of Wilksboro, who is al
most 100 years old, claims to have
nursed the Gibbs triplets when they
were babies. "They wus powerful
strong young uns," she says. The
triplets are all married men, each
has grandchildren and great-grand-
children, and they are most devoted
to each other.-[Leslie's Weekly.

CANADA GETTING.
OUR FARMERS
Going Across the Line in
Large Numbers.
MANY FROM MIDDLE STATES
In a Year Have Added 10000
To Population of
Dominion.

Ottawa. Ont, Oct. 1S.-Americar
farmers by the thousands are now
pouring over the boundary into the
Canadian West According to state.
ment made by the deputy minister OF
interior at Ottawa the invasion OF
Americans into Canada will total over
10000 for the present year.
In the beginning of this across
boundary movement the newcomers
were largely from the middle States,
but this year they are coming in from
almost every State in the union. Not
only are the numbers satisfactory TO
Canada, but the quality of the settlers
is rather improving than otherwise.
The story sent back by thousands of
satisfied settlers is attracting multi
tudes OF homeseekers from the South,
and as the tide of immigration swells,
SO swells the chorus Of Canadian
shouters.
The report of the immigration de-
partment. just issued, shows that 3d.
S32 persons came from the United
States during the last fiscal year end
ing March 81 exceeding even the num-
Der OF arrivals from Great Britain.
They were chiefly experienced agri-
culturists with plenty Of capital. Prac-
tically, the official report says. 10000
Americans entered Canada, and every
man, woman and child was possessed
on an average, OF $1,000 in stock, cash
and effects, meaning that they brought
into this country nearly s60,000,000.
w. J. White. head of the Canadian
immigration agencies in the United
States.says that this year immigration
from the United States has increased
fully 30 per cent. and that next year
he expected to see about 10000 Amer
leans settling in the Canadian West.
Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, says: 1.-THE
enterprising men who have made Iowa
one of the greatest agricultural States
in the union will help to build up AL
berta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
We cannot help regretting that the
United States is losing such good cit
liens, but if they must depart, we
would rather they went to Canada
than anywhere else"

Davies County Soldier Boys Luck.

The Owensboro Inquirer says:
A letter received from Captain G.
r. Lloyd, commanding Battery B., Of
the field artillery, stationed at Fort
Riley, Kansas, states that Joseph G.
Sullivan, a Davies county boy, was
injured in the explosion of a seven
inch gun which killed two fellow SOL
diers at Fort Riley on Monday of
this week. Sullivan had his left
wrist broken by a flying fragment Of
the gun and narrowly escaped death.
Joseph G. Sullivan is the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Sullivan, who
live near the old camp meeting
grounds in this county. Sullivan
enlisted in the army in March, 1908,
and has been stationed at Fort Riley
since May IA, 1908. He has made
good in the service, according to the
report of his captain. 1t is not stated
whether or not his injury will cause
his retirement from the service.
The gun, which exploded, was a
new one sent from Germany for an
experiment and the cause of its ex-
plosion is not known. Of the men
around the gun, Sullivan was the
least seriously hurt. Private Daniels,
of Cleveland, Ohio, and Sergeant
Smith, Of Omaha, Nebraska, were
killed, Daniels having his head blown
off and Smiths body being blown
entirely in two. Corporal Gray, of
Cleveland, got bad wound over his
eye and Corporal FELTON,, of Omaha,
had his left hand blown off. Lieuten-
ant Pencil, of Wichita, Kansas,
was cut and bruised over the body,
and especially about the shoulders.
The damage done to others around
the gun indicates the narrow es-
cape of Sullivan.

The manner In which the primary
election was held which gave the
names to the present Republican tick
ct for county offices, still rankles In
the bosoms of many Republican vo-
tiers. They do not like the manner of
it, the looks of it nor the smell Of it.
That fairness was in great measure
eliminated, they will not nor cannot
deny. Some Republicans will vote
against certain portions Of their coun-
ty ticket this fall, while many will not
vote at all.

The woman suffrage question is al
ways a prolific source of controversy,
with its adherents and opponents
somewhat equally divided. One OF
the strong pleas In favor Of woman
suffrage is that she is in every sense
more qualified to vote than the ne
gro bum of the street. Many women
do not desire the ballot, while men
opponents of woman suffrage declare
that it would greatly degrade woman
kind to go through the experience of
voting, especially in large cities. But
the fact of woman's qualification can
never be doubted.
