SUNSHINE CAUSES SURPRISE.
So Rare Is 1t in London That 1t Is
Counted and Measured,

In London, the land of fog, smoke,
dirt and SCOT, sunshine is so rare
and so valuable that it is counted,
weighed and measured. The results
of this scientific treatment is served
up to the waiting people in the news
papers from time to time.
For instance, a short time ago,
after three days of acquaintance with
the suns rays-a rare phenomenon
in that city-one of the papers an
nounced that that particular portion
of the globe enjoyed 1855, 900 square
miles of sunshine. Just how these
figures were arrived at it is hard to
say, but the telegraph lines from all
over the country were busy record
ing the surprising" absence of fog,
mist and smoke.
LondOners will probably tell their
grandchildren in years to come of the
first week in April, 1909, for it is
said that during that time the city
had 60 hours of sunshine. Just what
that means to the inhabitants will
be realized when it is said that the
corresponding week of last year was
considered exceptionally fine when
they saw the sun for only 80 hours.
In 1907 20 hours was the record.
The weather is always the chief
topic of conversation in England,
One meets with endless weather OBJ
servatiOns on the buses, in the bar
ber's chair, in the office and at one s
restaurant. 1T is the almost invaria-
bic way of opening a conversation
But recently LOndOners have outdOne
themselves in this respect. The com
ing German invasion, the budget, the
maintenance of the twO-power stand
ard and even the result of the Ok
ford and Cambridge boat race have
all had to take back seats in ones
list of topics of conversation. Us
ually the tone is one of pleasant an.
ticipation and the question, 'Wh IL
is the rain going to stOp?" Now
the tone is one of moody pessimisn
and the question, THE sunshine
surely can't last much longer?"
AS a sample of what is to be eX-
pected in London at this time of the
year, take the dreary month OF
March, out of which they emerged
soaked to the marrow with almost
constant rain. Of the 81 days &c
were rainy, and the sun was visible
during only 81 hours.

SEN. BACON SAVED OUR BACON
Georgian Surprised the Senate by
Succeeding in Getting the Tariff
Reduced on Meats.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Agree-
ments were reached in the senate to-
day upon many sections of the tariff
bill, so that as the hour for adjourn
ment approached the paragraphs re-
lating to agriculture were nearly all
disposed of. During the afternoon
Mr. Bacon entered upon an extended
discussion of the proposed increases
over the rates of the house bill in
duties on bacon and hams, lard,
fresh beef, etc., and Mr.. Aldrich sur
prised the senate by Withdrawing the
committee amendments. saving he
believed the house rates, although
below those of the Dipgley law rates,
were protective to those industries.
This action provoked further discus
sion on the part Of senators who IA
vored the higher rates.

DOLLARS CHASE LOVE OUT.
Husband Tells Court Wife Was Too
Rich to Live With.

James DalIis Kendall, in answer to
his wife's petition for divorce, tells
the court in Chicago she was too rich
to live with.
I'VE were happy until Mrs. Mary
Warren, my mother-in-law, was left
100000 recently" said Kendall,
but after that the two women be-
came social climbers.
THE fact is that woman who has
been poor and who suddenly becomes
rich is a very difficult person to live
happily with. When dollars began
rolling in our front door love began
drifting out Of the back. The more
dollars the less love was the way I
found it.
THE trouble was principally that
l did not impress my wife's mother
as fashionable enough for a society

FALLING TREE STRUCK TRAIN.
Twelve Passengers Are Injured in
an Unusual Way.

Twelve passengers on Western of
Alabama train received painful but
not serious cuts in a most peculiar
manner while en- route from Mont
gOmery to Selma.
The train was running at a fast
clip when a tree alongside of the
track began falling just as the en-
CINE was opposite it, The engineer
saw the danger and quickly shut off
the steam, but the entire train passed
by before the tree struck the track.
Limbs projected, however, into the
coaches, shattering every window
glass on the left side Of the two
rear coaches, and nearly every pas
senger sitting on that side sustained
cuts.
Immediately after the accident the
tram was brought to a stop, and the
.other passengers assisted in bandag-
ing up the injuries received by their
unfortunate travelling companions.

Smiths Auditors Found Accounts in
Prison Office in Good Shape.

The auditors who have been for
several days examining the books of
the prison commission have COM
pleted their work, and they left at
once for Milledgeville, where a sim
liar inspection of the prison farm
books is being made. They are
working under the direction of Gov.
Hoke Smith
While the auditors have made no
statement as to what the examination
of the books disclosed, it is under
stood that all accounts were found to
be in good shape.
Governor Smith is investigating
the accounts of the commission be-
cause of request for money to pay
bills brought over from previous
months. He has so far declined to
issue the warrant desired.
1t is also reported that the chief
executive is gathering data for pre-

commission, and the substitution of
one penitentiary warden or keeper

Embezzler of $4,000 Is Arrested
Through Love for His Child.

EmbezzIer of $4,000 Is Arrested
Through Love for His Child.
After five months of fight through
western cities and into Mexico Ed
ward B. Towne, Jr., returned to his
home in Orange, n. j., before day
light one morning last week to see
his sick son, and was quickly arrest
ed by detectives on charges of en-
bezzling approximately $4,000 from
the Matheson Loan Company of that
city.
Towne, who is only 20 years old,
rose rapidly with his employers, and
was cashier when he disappeared in
December. Following the discovery
of his alleged shortage it was re-
vealed that he had been living ex-
travagantly, having two motor cars
and maintaining a residence believed
to be beyond his legitimate means.
1t was believed that he had consid-
cradle money with him when he dis
TOwne quickly moved from one
city to another in the west, and de-
tectives were never able to catch up
with him. But the watch on his
young wife never ceased. In some
manner Towne heard of the serious
illness of his little son, and early
one morning last week he dashed up
to the house concealed in the ton
neau of an automobile.

house was entered Towne was found

DYING WOMEN TO ASYLUM
ONE FROM COWETA DIED EN-
ROUTE; ONE FROM CARROLL
WAS UNCONSCIOUS.
From the Griffin News and Sun.

| IOIu the OFILIu News anu gun.
People who had occasion to visit
the railway station in Griffin Sunday
morning witnessed one of the saddest
scenes that has ever been noted
there, the carrying of a dying wo-
man to the state asylum at Milledge-
vile.
A poor, demented lady, Mrs. Allen
by name, who was very i'll, perfectly
helpless and not capable of harming
a single soul, was brought down OH
the 500 train from Newman in this
condition, placed on the 9:20 Cen
trail train and carried to Milledge-
vile. She was lying on a cot, and
was apparently unconscious, not
noticing the noise of several trains
or those who looked upon her pros
trate form. She was placed or
trucks and in the hot sun, while those
in charge waited for the train here.
Many people saw this woman ana
expressed pity and indignation that
the authorities in any county in
Georgia should permit such inhu-
name treatment of it's people.
She was very aged lady, whose
head was white with the frost of
many winters and whose cheek was
pale with illness. She was placed
on the train at Newman, and it IS
presumed that she was sent from
Coweta county.
Col. Lloyd Cleveland, a prominent
citizen of Griffin, said to a News and
Sun reporter that such a sight made
his blood boil with indignation, and
that to send woman in that condi-
ton to the asylum was a disgrace to
the state of Georgia.
Another Similar Case.
Last week a lady was sent from
Carroll county who was also in a
dying condition. When she reached
Griffin she was so i'll that it was
necessary to send her to the Griffin
hospital for treatment. She was put
on the train at CarrOlltOn, according
to the statement of the conductor.
Her name was Mrs. James Wal
lace, and before the train arrived at
Milledgeyille she died within sixteen
miles of her destination. She was
brought back through Griffin last
Friday a corpse.
We do not know the circumstances
under which these stricken women
were sent away in the condition that
they were, nor why the ordinaries
before whom they must have been
tried for insanity allowed it or the
relatives of the parties permitted it,
but it was an awful and inhumane
thing to do. Neither woman could
have harmed anyone, for they were
too i'll for that land they certainly
should not have been sent away
while so low.
While the asylum is the proper
place for those whose reason has
been dethroned, it is a sad sight to
see even these sent to Milledgeville,
but it is doubly sad and cruel and
unjust to send helpless and dying
person there.

United Action Against
Hyacinths.

Congressman Bob Broussard is
formulating a plan whereby a sue
cessful campaign can be started
against the hyacinths, now obstruc-
ting the navigable streams of this
State. The idea IS to have all th 0
police juriss in the parishes affec-
ted. but particularly in the third
district to meet and agree to use
permanently the methods employ
Ell by the Federal Government in
Graduating the pest, or rather to
allow the Government to eradicate
them for the different parishes.
Congressman Broussard while in
the city last attending a confer
ence of United States Engineers
regarding the Inter Coastal Canal
took up the matter with Col. Lam
sing Beach, United States Engl-
neer. 1t will be remembered that
Col. Beach, at the instance of Con-
gresham Broussard, sent a gov
eminent boat last year to destroy
the lilies or hyacinths in the ba-
you but as it was during the grin
ding season and as the water was
used by cattle and by the differ
ent mills it was deemed inadvisa-
BILE to use the boat. which DESTROY
ed the pest with poisonous acids,
for fear the water might be poi
soned or possibly the fish and
more harm than good would be
done.
The idea if carried out shonld |
be good one. The object is to
first get the police juries in the
parishes affected to adopt the
plan, appoint delegates to con.
intended to be held at La
fayett-, and there adopt a syste-
matte campaign SO as to rid the
different streams of them altogeth-
