A French chemist has recently pro-
claimed that cider is an antidote for
typhoid fever. The acid in it is the
agent, as it destroys the germs. Cider
in Europe is more generally used as
a beverage than in this country. Ger
mans appear to prefer cider after it
becomes sour, but Americans usually
prefer it while it is sweet.

The tiresome vibratory effect so
often seen when bioscope or kimeto-
graph pictures are thrown on the
screen is not due to the passage of the
film itself across the front of the
lantern, but to the shutter. which cuts
off the light at rapidly repeated inter-
walls during the motion of the film.
BY simply increasing the frequency Of
interp0sition of this shutter from
fourteen to ffty-six times second.
that is, by using motor working at
four times the usual speed. the pain

suppressed.

up with dIsconcerting frequency that
bears on the Southern situation. Is
the South going to be represented in
the new cabinet? So far there seems
to be nothing that would lead to the
conclusion that the South is to be rep.
resented In the cabinet. unless it is
that General Luke Wright is to be
maintained as secretary of war. And
this would scarcely be considered spe-
cial recognition of the South by Judge
Taft, because General Wright is al
ready in the cabinet and he was not
placed there by President Roosevelt
with any particular desire to give the
South representation. There is con-
siderable talk of the appointment of
Charles Nagle, of st. Louis. as secre-
tary of commerce and labor, but Mis-
souri, could scarcely be considered a
Southern state, and Mr.. Nagle comes
from the Republican city Of st. Louis.
Oklahoma could properly be classed
as a Southern state, and a close one
politically. and while there was some
talk of Dennis Flynn being cabinet
possibility with the portfolio of the
Department of the Interior, his name
is never heard in that connection in
Washington.
In truth. il is doubtful If the South
expects Judge Taft to put Southern
ers in his cabinet. One might go fur
ther and say that there is not an over
surplus Of cabinet material In the Re
publican party Of the South. But
Southern men have right to expect
Of Judge Taft, since his open declara-
tlon Of winning the South. a resoIute
stand upon the question Of appointing
negroes to office, whether he gives
further recognition to white Repub-
licans or not. Unless he satisfies the
South on this one proposition, since 1t
has 50 pertinent1y been raised, he will
have trouble getting any further with
bis missionary work In that section Of
The country.

SMOKING out Mr.. TAFT

Washington, D G.. Feb. S.-Prodigal
OF promises of fair treatment for the
South, Judge Taft has suddenly
been brought face to face with a de-
mand for performance, and he is wa
yering, in fact doing his best to evade
the issue. And II is not at all strange
that the issue is the one that most vi
tally concerns the South politically.
and has always made It Democratic.
The South wants to know how Judge
Taft stands on the appointment OF
negroes to office. And If Democratic
senators have their way they are go
ing to find out at once.
President Roosevelt has appointed
Or. Crum. negro. as collector OF
the port at Charleston. S. c. The ap-
polntment has not been confirmed by
the senate. Democratic senators.
headed BY Senator Tillman, are try
ing to hold up this confirmation until
after the 4th of March, when Judge
Taft becomes president If the con-
firmation is not made before that time
then Taft will have to make the
Charleston appointment This will
bring to an issue HIS policy relative
to appointing negroes to office.
Judge Taft does not want to meet
the issue. He has written several Re-
publican senators aere to secure the
confirmation Of DR.. Crum, If possible,
before March 4. so that at the very
outset of his administration he will
be relieved of the necessity OF taking
up the Crum appointment. which has
caused such bitterness on the part OF
Southern men. Republicans in the SEN
ate are willing to help Judge Taft out
Of the dilemma, and may force the CON
firmation over the protest Of the Dem
ocrats. but II 50. it will give room for
suspicion that Judge Taft is not as
sincere In his attitude toward the
South as he had led the people to be-
lieve.
