T|LLMAN' s CHANCE
BETTER THAN EVEN
Physicians Encouraged by Condi-
ton OF South Carolina
Senator.
CRISIS NOT YET PASSED
Little Hope That He Will Ever
Have Full Use Of
Speech.

Washington. D. c., February To-
The condition of Senator Benjamin
Il. Tillman, of South Carolina, who Is
critically i'll with paralysis and
aphasia, is a little more encouraging
to-day. While his case continues to
be extremely grave, his chances for re-
covery arc said by the attending ply
sicians to be better than even.
This CLEAN OF hope. born OF the
fact that the vital organs OF the SEN
ator not directly affected by the stroke
of paralysis are performing their func-
tions admirably, has given the South
erner's relatives and friends the great
est encouragement they have received
in the past forty-eight hours.
DR.. j. W. Babcock. who has been Mr..
Tillman's personal physician for the
past nineteen years, reached Washing
ton early to-daySfrom Columbia, S. c.,
and entered into a consultation of the
case with DR.. e. +. Pickford, the Sem
ator's Washington physician.
DR.. Babcock is superintendent of the
South Carolina Hospital for the In
sane, and on account of his intimate
acquaintance with Mr.. Tillman is thor
oughly conversant With his physical
condition and habits of life. He will
remain in Washington in consultation
with DR.. Pickford until the present
crisis has, passed. which will be sevc-
raj days at least.
Fully Conscious.
While there has been no change in
the paralysis and aphasla, no COM
plications have developed In the Sem
ators case. and his temperature, pulse
and respiration are normal. His heart
is responding to its functions splen-
didly. and no disorder of the kidneys
has arisen. He swallows liquids with
out difficulty and is conscious. To-day
lln recognized those about him. INCLUDE
ing DIR. RabcocS. who said, Tho SEN
ator even smiled when cracked q
few South Carolina jokes"
The doctors believed Mr.. Tlllman
himself felt encouraged to-day, and
they based their hope OF his ultimate
recovery upon tho absence OF further
symptoms. II his present
condition can DO maintained few
days longer, 1t Is said, he will have q
good chance in his fight for life. He
may recover from the paralysis and
regain the use of limb. but. 1t is said,
aphasia will likely leave him the sad =
dest token of his illness.
It is almost impossible for him to
articulate at the present time, and 1t
is feared that the power OF speech may
never fully return. Ifsthls be tho case,
his forceful tongue viii never again

Girl to Ascend on a Big Kite.

Riding q kite, tho most perilous
feat which can be performed in the
air, and which has never been per-
formed in the history of aeronau-
tics is, according to present ar
rangsments, to be one of the most
daring features of the Harvard
Boston aero meet next month.
To make the feat all the more
wonderful is the fact that mere
slip of girl, Miss Emily T. Will
lard of Mslrose, will make this
hitherto untried attempt to con-
quer the air, riding astride the
man-lifting aeroplane kite of Sam
uel f. Perkins OF Dorchester. Miss
Willard, just in her twenties, has
passed the best part of her life in
company with the man carrying
steel OF the air. She ls the dauRh-
tor of W. A. WilIord. consulting
engineer of the Harvard Aeronau-
tical Society.
Although for twelve years Mr..
Perkins has been experimenting
with seroplane kites of various
sorts, he had never himself made
an ascent; hence it is that the sen-
sationsl flight which has been
scheduled for next week is to be-
made by a woman. The man-lift-
lug kite is already completed and
IL being guarded carefully from
public view by its designer.

PROFITABLE CANE SYRUP.
H. Henry Griffen. Nashville, Ca. in
In Southern Ruralist.


made and properly put up in con-
venlent and attractive packages is
half sold.
Realizing that this truth applied
as we'll to cane syrup as to any
thing else, and living in a land of
such wonderful possibilities in su-
gar cane production. began two
years ago to get my wits to fOrmu-
late some plan whereby l might
improve the quality of my cane
syrup, put it up in attractive form
and in way that it will remain
as fresh, good and palatable as
when first boiled, and last, but not
the least of the good results to be
rsaped, was the fancy price such
. product would bring when put
upon the market.
] and my nsighbors had been
fol years putting up syrup in bar
rels, the result of which is a poor
and unsatisfactory quality of
syrup when put on tho market in
the spring and summer it's manu-
facture, and many times l have
known farmers to carry over from
year to year old syrup and finally
feed it to hogs rather than accept
the twenty or twenty-five cents per
gallon offered for it. That price 10
really al it was worth as it was,
being as black as tar almost and
20 strong that nobody but a tur-
pentine darky would eat it. 1t
seems strange that many are yet
going on making, using and trying
to sell such stuff when there is 90
much better aud easier way to get
moro than ten times the satisfac.
ton OF eating syrup aud better
cakes and biscuit over the old
kind, put up in the old way, and
three or four times over the price
Of the barrel syrup for what we
don't need for homo consumption.
But it is not so strange that farm
ers will make cane syrup ct twen-
ty-fvs cents per gallon when it is
possible here in South Georgia to
make 400 gallons of syrup from
one acre of good land.
In the late spring and early sum
msr l buy up all the empty beer
bottles / can get for twelve to fif-
teen cents per dozen. 1t is really
remarkable how many you can OBJ
tain if you make arrangements
with the fruit stands aud cold
drink dealers to pay cash for them
as they are brought in by the lit
tie boys around town. 1 bought
thousand last fall, and could have
bought many moro had l needed
them.
l filled them with a good quail
ty of red ribbon and green cane
syrup made according to the in
structions given by DIR. Stock
bridge in the Ruralist, so far as
the instructions applied to my out
fit for syrup making.
The bottles were filled, corked
aud sealed while hot. aud it is no
trouble to sell all l have to spare
at one dollar per dozen bottles. As
it takes only ten bottles to hold a
gallon, this is eighty-three cents
per gallon, as against twenty or
twenty-five cents per gallon under
the old plan. l have sold some
thing like forty dozen up to date,
and will have about twenty dozen
more to dispose OF.

These labels are placed on all the
syrup sold, aud l have been the
recipient of many compliments
from persons who have noticed MY
syrup on the table al hotels, res

of which is very pleasant to me,
and encourages me in my efforts
