COLD STORAGE RELIGION.
An Illinois Preachers Method of
Keeping His Congregation Cool.

An Illinois Preachers Method of
Keeping His Congregation Cool.
In an ingenious attempt to make
his congregation more comfortable
at services during the hot weather
Rev. Elisha Stafford, pastor of the
First Presbyterian church at Ed
wardsville, H., will have the choir
sing only such refrigerating hymns
as By Cool Siloam's Shady Rill, and
From Greenland's Icy Mountains,
and he himself will sweeten the at
mosphere with sermons on such airy
themes as The Wind in the Trees,
and The Summer Clouds. Hymns
and sermons having no reference to
cold weather are to be barred
Moving picture shows, their whirl-
ing fans and their little orchestras
blaring out cheap rattley music, will
be completely obscured by the dust
when DR.. Safford's new system is in
full blast AS the choir, pulling on
their mittens, strike up the chilly
chords of The Snow Flakes That Fell
vi NIOulI LSudnOu, VI OIu6I hymns
which conjure up visions of wintry
landscape, the women will wish they
had brought their wraps, and the
men will put their hands in their
pockets and SILVER, while the chill
dren, with chattering teeth, will
swing arms and stamp feet to keep
warm. Even the fat man will cease
groaning and hopping, so cool and
bracing will be the interior of that
church while the midsummer SER
vices are in full swing.
This plan of invoking the mind
influence over matter is rather novel
when applied to the problem of Sc
curing more personal comfort on hot
days, and provided it does not throw
the congregation into too severe
chills, the results of which might be
detrimental to health, it should go
far toward solving the problem of
securing good attendance at church
on sultry Sunday mornings. But if
it means the elders have got to scare
up money enough to buy more coal,
the innovation probably will be
abandoned in favor of fans and hand
kerchiefS

tendency, Says House, Is To Take
Them to Fashionable Hotels.
Magistrate Frederick B. House of
New York thinks that the law goes
too far in the matter of protecting
the criminal or the prisoner charged
with crime. Is the time coming
when we shall take our criminals
to fashionable hotel instead of to
Jail?" he asks in a statement COM
menting on the present system of
criminal procedure.
Why, our laws seem designed to
make things unpleasant for the in
Jured citizen and pleasant for the
accused" he says.
In my private practice it was a
common occurrence for my clients
to ask for an indictment in this state
In preference to any other state in
the union. If they could select a
particular section of New York they
would stay in this city"
The occasion of these remarks by
Magistrate House was the arraign-
ment before him of Samuel Gordon.
who was arrested on a telegram
from San Francisco where he is
wanted for burglary. Gordon's coun-
sci protested against holding the
man pending proceedings for extra
dition, and said he would ask for a
writ of habeas Corups.

PENSION RULES RECEIVED
VETERANS WHO COME UNDER
SERVICE PENSION ACT.
Ordinary Admonished to Be eau
tious. What Is Necessary Under
New Law to Get on the Roll.

IAouS' w HdG Is necessary Under
New Law to Get on the Roll,
Instructions to Ordtnaries relative
to the distribution of application
blanks to confederate pensioners
have been received at Judge Cheat
hams office.
Those who wish to get on the pen
sion roll under the new service PEN
sion law will have to file their ap-
plication with the Ordinary.
In his letter which accompanies
the instructions and copy of the
pension law Pension Commissioner
Lindsey admonishes the Ordinary to
be exceedingly cautions in passing
upon the applications Remember
that the pension is for the true and
faithful soldier (and their widows)
who stood by the cause to the finish,
and not for the dodgers, the stay-a-
ways or the deserters," he writes.
Under this law all soldiers who
served during the civil war, and who
do not possess property valued at
more than $500, are entitled to
draw pension of $50 year. Wild
O"o VI oOlNlClo, w uO are uOI uOW
drawing pension from the state,
and who were bona fide residents of
Georgia November 4, 1908, are also
entitled to pension.
Applicants and witnesses are put
under oath when they appear be-
fore the Ordinary to seek a pension.
In the matter of enlistments details
are required, including month and
year, the company by letter, and reg
iment by number; when and where
and how the applicant left the com
mand. All statements made in the
applications must be proven to be
true.
A full statement must be made
about the property owned by the
applicant and his wife November 4
1908, when the lew passed, and give
its cash value. They must state
what property they have sold or
given away since the date named.
If the applicant has no property he
or she will have to prove that fact.
Applicants need not go before the
Ordinary and expect to get on the
pension roll without conforming to
the strict rules. The rules have been
made drastic for the very reason that
there are liable to be those who
would impose upon the state in the
manner suggested by the commits
sioner, and technical adherence of
the rules will be required in all cases.

Every merchant should be a good

Who knows our town is on the

What is its rank in the American

Boys, it is almighty important
the position our town takes in this
race for municipal supremacy.
And the old town cannot fight her
battles without you and me to boost.
We can boost at least, if we donot

men to push her ahead.

SAID IT'S "TOO HORRIBLE"
HOUSE FIXED AGE LIMIT FOR
NIGHT MESSENGER WORK.
Messrs. Hall and Pickett Fight Bill
to Prohibit Boys Under IS Years
Doing This Work at Night.

ATLANTA Ga.-DecIaring that
the messenger service is not only
shamelessly profitable, but shame
lessly profiigate, Representative
Alexander of DeKalb made a hard
fight in the house today for the re-
tention in his bill prohibiting the
employment of minors as night mes
sengers, of the 21-year-age limit.
The house, however, accepted the
committee amendment so as to make
the bill apply only to boys under
16 years of age and passed by a vote
of $50 to 26 the measure making
1t mlsdemeanor to employ boys I'M
der 10 as messengers between the
hours of p. m. and a. m.
1t was declared that in Atlanta.
Augusta, Macon and Savannah in
vestigations had shown conditions in
the messenger service too horrible to
bear repetition. Messrs. Barrett of
Stephens, Pickett of Terrell and Hall
of Bibb fought the bill. Speaker
Holder had to order the closing of
the doors while the vote was being
taken on account of the confusion
in the hall.
No Bar on abusive Language"
The house today gave only thirty
three votes for the bill of Mr.. Lewis
of Hancock to make it a misdemean-
or to publish in any newspaper any
opprobrious words or abusive Ian
guage tending to cause breach of
the peace. The measure had sixty
six votes recorded against it.
Mr.. Barrett of Stephens and Mr.
Pickett of Terrell took the position
in opposing the measure that it
would prevent newspapers in many
instances from doing their public
duty in denouncing crime and assail-
ing malefactors.

A Chicago dispatch says lower

The retailers declare that the

MILK BOssY BY MACHINE.
WashingtOn's TrOusered Dairymaids
Return to Peach Packing.

ANCbuAh ~ SotCA Il dCblHS.
One of the model diaries in the
state of Washington, located near
North Yakima, has received a ship
ment of modern milking machines,
and fifty white trousered girls are
thrown out of employment.
The girls had been doing the milk
ing for several years, having dis
placed Japanese, who were found to
be unhygienic. Each girl wore a
tight-itting pair of trousers and a
short sleeved jacket to match, which
garments were boiled and starched
each day by the farm laundress.
Each cow is bathed in warm water
and soap twice daily, combed and
brushed. The floors of the dairy
barn are scrubbed many times daily.
The newly acquired machines are
designed to draw the milk by a
pumping method, power for which is
supplied by gasoline engine. 1t is
claimed one machine will be able
to do the work Of ten girls, and dc
it in more hygienic way. The milk
ing girls have donned skirts and are
employed in packing peaches and

DEATH OF MRS. RUFUS JONES.
Young Wife of Former Dawsonian
Dies at Their Texas Home.

Young Wife of Former Dawsonian
Dies at Their Texas Home.
Friends in Dawson of Mr.. Rufus
Jones will learn with regret of the
death Of his wife, which occurred at
their home in Laredo, Texas. The
deceased was a resident of Pensa-
cola, Fla, before her marriage, and
the following account of the burial
in that city, where the remains were
taken, is from the Pensacola Jour
nal:
Unusually touching and pathetic
was the laying to rest of the late
Mrs. Annie Jones yesterday, who, as
one of Pensacola's sweetest young
women, left the city scarcely two
years ago as the bride of Mr.. Rufus
Jones, a well-known newspaper man.
"On account of the serious illness
OF Mrs. Briggs, mother of the de-
ceased, who had been at her daugh-
ters bedside, and who, in company
with the husband and brother, had
accompanied the remains home from
Laredo, Texas, the funeral services
were held at the grave, the Rev. Mr.,
1. Y. Alternately of the Gadsden
Street NJ. E. church being in charge.
The deceased was better known
in Pensacola as Miss Annie Briggs,
being loved by all for her genuine
sweetness of character and lovable
disposition. She was formerly con-
nected with the Evening News, and
it was in this manner that a pretty
romance began, which eliminated in
her marriage with Mr.. Jones.
IAN Albanian by birth, she
moved with her family to Pensacola
several years ago, and was one of
the class of students which was grad
uated from the Pensacola High
School in the year 1906. One of the
most beautiful of the numerous floral
pieces yesterday was a mounted
wreath sent by the surviving mem
bers of this class.
Mrs. Jones was but % years of
age at the time of her death, the
youth and the sweet promise of her
spotless young life making her death
doubly sad.
THE bereaved husband will re-
main in Pensacola few days before
returning to Texas to take up his
work as secretary of the Laredo
board of trade"

What Happened When One Woman
Rescued Another From Drowning.


Aren't they the queer creatures,

swim, tumbled from a dock into deep
water. She was in imminent danger
of drowning when Mrs. Balm, who
could swim, jumped in and held her
head above water until policemen
could come running and fish them
both out. Naturally the hair of both
women was mussed and their sum-
mer clothes were dripping and cling
ing. Mrs. Balm, having a sense of
humor, looked at the disheveled and
dripping Elsie and burst out laugh
ing in hearty haw-haws. Doubtless
she was thinking of her own appear
ance at the time as well as Elsie's
But when Mrs. Balm laughed Elsie
got hopping mad and scolded her
rescuer roundly and soundly. How
ever, Mrs. Balm says she'd do it for
Elsie again.

AN ANTI-sPITTING MOVE.
Women War on Those Who EXpectO-
rate on Flushing Streets.

rate on Flushing streets.
Anti-expectorating You never
heard of it before? Well, it is a
beneficial civic affection that is prev
alent in the town of Flushing, n. Y.
This affection (if it may be called as
such), which is similar to the anti
spit laws of Dawson and some other
Georgia towns, was brought about by
the Good Citizenship League, which
is composed of the wealthiest women
of the town.
A delegation headed by Mrs. Wini-
fred Lay called on Borough Presi-
dent Dresser and urged him to sup
port their war on the spitters, class
obnoxious to any progressive town or
city. The borough president notl-
fed them that he would do all in HIS
power to assist them in their work,
and notified the health board and
advised that each member of the
league be empowered to make ar
rests of violators.
From now on those who go about
the streets expectorating will be
taken before a magistrate and per-
mitted to contribute 50 each to the
towns finances.
If other towns and cities whose
citizens are wide awake and consid-
err the health of themselves and fell
low towns-people and the advance
ment of their respective commune
ties would follow the example OF
these society women they would re-
alize within a short time the bene-
fits that can be derived from 1t.
