A CHILD GENIUS.
Ampere Dabbled In Mathematics at
the Ace of Three.

tne age OF nree.
Ampere, who left his name to the
science of electricity, was a child gen.
ius. At the age of three he had taught
himself to count with the aid of peb-
bles and had found out for himself
good many of the theories of arith-
metic. At this age he became very Ill
and was for three days denied food.
At the end of the fast he was given a
biscuit, but instead OF eating it he
broke It up into pieces TO count with,
an operation he considered more inter
esting.
He read everything with avidity.
His mind did not run i'm one channel,
and he welcomed every volume that
came in his way When he was ten or
twelve years old he went to Il library
to ask for the works Of certain au-
thor. The librarian told him in amuse-
ment that the books were in Latin
The boy went home chagrined for he
did not know Latin, being a sickly
child and held back from books as far
as possible. but after six weeks he APP
peared again and told the librarian he
had learned 10 read the books now.
Ampere is one of the few child prod
igies who seems to have been sickly.

COURT THREATENED
Letter Written in Italian Was Sangui-

New York, Feb. 25-Judge Ray of
the United States district court, who
presided at the trial of Ignazio Lupo
and his gang of Sicilian counterfeiters
and sent them to prison for terms
ranging from thirty to fifteen years,
received while the trial was on what
purported to be a Black Hand letter
written in Italian and saying, in rough
translation: IF the prisoners are not
liberated you will die like a dog. We
have killed better men than you or
Smith or Flynn"
Smith is Abel |. Smith. the assist
ant United States district attorney,
who prosecuted. Flynn is Captain w.
]. Flynn of the local federal secret
service, who arrested the Sicilans.
The text of the letter was reinforc-
e& with sketches in ink of heart
pierced with a dagger and drops of
blood falling from the wound. Two
revolvers were drawn pointed at the
bleeding heart and a black hand was
drawn conspicuousy. The letter was
posted in this city Judge Ray turned
1t over to the postofice inspector.

Let 1t Come Out in the Wash.

The proposition of Senator Per-
cy's supporters to submit whether
bis election was or was not secured
in corruption to a special primary
to be held November next is a play
to the galleries, executed in most
artful way. If Mr. Percy was hon
orably elected, and every good citi-
zen hopes that he was, there is no
occasion for him to become indig-
nant at charges to the contrary
Those who managed his campaign
some of them, at least-knOw
whether any crookedness was prac-
ticed, with or without his CON
nivance. II without, then let them
confess, and the distinguished Sen
ator Will resign the honor that
came to him SO questionably. II
/ there was 40 corruption, then let
the matter take its course and come
out clean in the wash. The fair
name of Mississippi deserves that it
so come out. That evidences of
corruption (up) about the episode
cannot be disclaimed. Like Ban
quo's ghost, they will not down.
The proposition, however, to sub
NIT the question in special pri-
mary, after the matter has been
threshed by the courts and the SEN
ate is obviously absurd. 1t would
be verdict famed out of factional
politics, and would afford no vim
dication, whatever. After the Sem
ate and courts have completed their
Investigations, let the matter rest.
The people will vindicate, or
condemn, in the regular primary
next year. Nobody has accused
except Bilbo. His testimony
before the grand jury only was suf-
fcient for that body to indiet. He
escaped expulsion from his high
office at the hands OF his conferees
by one vote, but that doesn't read
it all. fractional spirit runs high
IN the Senate. and factional spirit
doesn't always permit one to see
things as they are. Bilbo played
with lot slicker than himself, and
lost in the playing. That, hcw-
ever, will not win him plaudits.
He will be censured because he
couldn't take a joke" The time
has come for clean politics. Tricks,
trades, and questionable methods
are becoming more odious to the
people. Those who resort to them
will be relegated from leadership,
and men having higher ideas of
honor will be substituted. In the
elections next year, it is believed
that the voters will be careful of
and that no scandals,
such as the one now alleged at
jackson, will smirch Mississippi
again.

The Expensive Legislature

The Legislature just adjourned
eclipsed all its predecessors in the
item OF extravaganza. According
to the figures of the Secretary OF
State, 81 OF. 271.35 were approp-
rated more than at the last session.
This stupendous amount in excess
of the usual appropriations. swiped
the surplus. and brought the State
to the necessity Of authorizing a
bond issue of 5000. 600. 90 to save it
from bankruptcy.
Along all lines. the appropria-
tions were increased and several
improvements projected requiring
large expenditure Of funds. and this
at time when the people were
groaning under the weight of high
cost OF living and short crops last
year. 1t is said that the judiciary
will cost the state $500. OOO, 90 a
year more than formerly. The
legislature was. indeed. enterpris-
ing. but enterprise conceived in
extravaganza and executed out of
the peoples money. affords no SUBJ
stantial development. A burdened
people can give no stability to a
State 1t is not Sd much what the
State has As it is how much is it
encountered. that fixes its standing
OF wealth. The legislatures pa
triotism is not questioned in mat.
ters OF extravasance. hut its judge
ment can not escape criticism.
individuals nor States act wisely
when they spend more than they
have. or entail unnecessary burdens
upon posterity.

What Physicians Say

Mr. Nesmith of Nesmith, SC. writes
that she recommended U-RA-CURA
to a physician who had failed of a
cure with other remedies and that he
has discarded other medicines and is
showing wonderful improvement
since he commenced taking U-RA-
CURA." Many physicians recon-
mend this remedy to their patients
who are suffering with Kidney and
Bladder troubles. Large numbers of
unsolicited testimonials have been
received from those who have been
cured. Druggists sell it at so cents

ANNOUNCEMENTS.
Strikes Advance Cost of Living.

The wage Garner has failed tc
realize that in exacting more for bis
labor he is taxing himself with a
higher cost of living. The value oi
all commodities is fixed by the cost
of production, whether manufac-
tured article, or grown IN field,
pasture, or garden. Labor is one
of the essentials in producing any
thing. If labor comes high, the
article produced ascends in price
correspondingly. The wage earners
form the largest class of consumers,
and pay the preponderance OF the
increased prices. Many think when
Strikes occur that the strikers, II
their demands are acceded to, are
the beneficiaries, and that the mills,
mines or railways. as the case may
be, are principally hurt.
The truth is different. These
corporations always add the adj
vance in the increased cost of pro-
duction, and charge more for the
article, or transportation. In this
way, the consumer is forced to
contribute to the increase of his
own salary. In recent years, cor
porations have acceded to the de-
mands of strikers more readily than
formerly. With each concession,
the price of living has steadily adj
vanced.
The cost of production must al
ways regulate the price of that
which is produced. Viewing the
matter from this point, it were
doubtful if any advance for service
of the wage Garner will materially
benefit him. Should salaries of a
particular class be advanced TO the
exclusion of others, the favored
class might be benefited, but the
excluded would suffer greater hard
ship. There is no way for laboring
people to put the burden on the
manufacturer or the corporation.
The increased wages paid will be
tackled on to the necessaries OF life,
and the wage Garner will pay 1t
back in increased cost of what he
has to buy. 1t amounts to hand
ling more money, but getting no
more for it,
There is one class, however, that
may be Independent. and that class
is composed of farmers. The farm
er can produce most that he con-
sumes at home, and the surplus in
the market will bring good enough
prices to balance margins tackled |
onto the manufactured articles he |
consumes. No class can outrank |
the farmer in independence, If he |
follows his vocation intelligently.

A pool in cotton is alleged to
have existed at New York, abnor-
mally advancing prices. A special
federal grand jury is now engaged
in probing the affair. Big cotton
brokers of several cities have been
subpoened to go before that body
and testify. More cotton has been
bought than can be delivered.
Those who purchased insist on de-
livery of the raw material. This
can not be complied with for the
cotton does not exist. Those who
knowingly bought what did not
exist must now be indicted That
is one way out of the difficulty. The
ones who sold a fictitious commodity
would seem more culpable, but the
shoe pinches there and they are
striving to shift the hurt.
The people of the South are not
losers on account of the pool. Had
the price been depressed, we would
have been damaged. Manipula-
ton of the future market is con-
slant menace, and results more
frequently in unfavorable than
favorable prices. The brakes should
be pu; on somewhere. Uncle Sam
should probe the alleged pool.

since April 2nd there would be a
collision, but fortunately its di-
rection will change. 1t will re-
cede from us, getting farther and
farther away until it looses itself in
space.
Comets are exceedingly tenuous
bodies, so much SO as to permit
stars to be seen through them.
Their tails are supposed to be light
reflected from the sun, or radlated
heat from near approach to the
sun. A comets tail grows longer
as the comet gets nearer the sun.

comet will be nearest to the sun.
When this tail sweeps the earth,
it will be imperceptible to any but
astronomers, who will test atmos-
pheric conditions with sensitive in
struments for the benefit of science.
Halley's Comet is among the
small vagabonds of the heavens. 1t
lost itself many years ago, and was
thought to have been absorbed by
some planet of the universe. But
it turned up again, came nearer us
than ever, and threatened to abide
with us. Evidently, the pilot who
is steering the thing through the
skies, saw something in this old
world that he didn't like, and
turned away. 1t might have been
the senatorial fiasco at jackson; the
pardon of the Coopers at Nashville.
or the persecution of Uncle Joe
Cannon at Washington. At any
rate, Halley's Comet refused to
play in Uncle Sans back yard.
However, the Mississippi Senators.
Governor Patterson, Uncle Joe
Cannon and Uncle Sam s boys will
get look at the visitor as he flies
off into space. If he should ever
visit us again, all hope that our
political house will be better swept,
and that the wanderer will see no
cause to turn away in such sudden
high dudgeon. Don't however,
forget to watch the western sky,
