ALABAMA FARMERS
 MUST RAISE MULES

Auburn, January 10.-(Spectal)-~r farmers of Alabama must be taught that they can raise their own mules," said Prof. Dan T. Gray of the department of animal industry at Auburn, yesterday. "They must also be shown the best way to raise and feed them"
 Although the department is not in the best shape, at present, to undertake new work, because of lack of resources. plans are on foot, and fully developed, to take up investigation in mule raising.
 "No question of more vital interest to the Alabama farmer is there than mule raising" said Professor Gray, "At the present time our farmers take their hard earned cotton money and buy mules with 1t; very few mules are raised in the state. The department hopes to be able, some time in the future. to have sufficient money to get some good mares and a good jack and study thoroughly the ques- ton of raising mules In this state.
 There are about 5000 mules and horses brought into the state each year from other states. This represents an expendi- ture of not less than $1.500,000 or about 20 GOO bales of cotton. spent for work an- imals each year. This could all be saved to our farmers if they would only learn to raise their own stock"

Y.M.C.A. SECRETARY
 SHOOTS HIMSELF


 Spartanburg, s. C., January 10.-Walter Brooks Abbott, secretary of the Spartan burg Young Mems Christian association, shot himself through the head with a 3S-calibre revolver while sitting in the association building this morning and died few minutes afterwards. Whether 1t was suicide or an accident Is not known.
 Several young men were in the build ing when the shot was fired but as MT. Abbott was hidden by desk they were not witnesses to the tragedy.
 A doctor who was passing was called to attend MT. Abbott but his services were not needed, as the secretary had died before he could reach his side.
 A favorite child of MT. Abbott died not long ago and this might have made him Respondent.
 Mr. Abbott came here about five years ago from New Orleans, where he was engaged in Young Mems Christian asso- citation work. He was native of New Hampshire.

vice so he will after today leave the service and live quietly in Chicago.
 He is not unlike President Hara han in that he started out as an off, flee boy with the company and went up step by step until ke secured the best job in the gift of the passenger de- partment, and held 1t.
 He directed the passenger depart ment through those romantic times when a passenger representative of a line was required to have every pos sible ability to get the competitive business. He showed results as that company has always earned money through the passenger affairs. ,s.# MT. Hanson will be one of the at. tendants at the banquet tonight to MT Harahan, or one would have been ten. dered him specially by the members ol the passenger department.
 The retirement of the two old vet erans on the Illinois Central has beer received with more than passing re gret by the employees who cannot b, persuaded that everything will be a
 smooth as under those who have re tired and who understood thoroughly No successor to MT. Hanson has beer

 derwood of the Erie will attend. He is l said to be the most marvellous en-
 gineer that was ever employed by any
 American railroad company. He has Mir.
 Harahan's son with him as vice pres | ident of the Erie. President Markham, l to whom all eyes in Illinois Central | circles are turning and who succeeds Mir Harahan, will also be in attend | ance
 For the purpose of being present at this tribute to MT. Harahan, Maj. Alex presidents of the Central of Georgia,
 will go to Chicago today. They will
 both make short addresses perhaps. | The vice presidents of all Hartman | lines of whom Robert Lovett Is pres | ident will attend. as we'll as scores | of presidents and lesser lights from the east and the west.
 l MT Harahan, who. like Milton H. Smith of the Louisville and Nashville,
 is the father" of present day presi- dents, will make short address out lining some of his future work and relating some past experiences as pres ident of the Illinois Central. | His career has been among the most attractive of any man who ever rose 1 to the heights of prominence In the
 railroad service of this country. Start ing as a section hand near Nashville,
 he went step by step until he was made
 the highest officer in one of the best
 railroads in America. He did this by
 sheer ability and force of understand | ing. for he never went to any school and has supported relatives all the
 while and with rare success. 1 Mir. Harahan will be the honored guest at the second banquet tomor-
 row night that has been rendered him
 since his retirement was announced. He
 Is very popular down south and Mem phis the other night gave him one of
 the largest attended banquets, accord ling to reports. that has been given there in some time. He spoke brief lly at that affair, saying that he would continue to work and while stepping out of the presidency would actively advise with the officers while he Is d
 director of the Illinois Central and oth- CT lines.
 1 The retirement of MT. Harahan has already been anticipated and President Markham, who also started as sec l ton hand, has been given his place Mir. Markham will start running the l Illinois Central at once.
 MT. Harahan retires under a pension | system placed in vogue on the Illinois l Central to the end that all employes reaching the age of 70 must retire
 while those past 60 may retire if they
 elect with all pensions payable al
 though they served up to the age of 70 | years.
 Simultaneously with the retirement
 of President Harahan. one of the pas
 senger department men will also ster out. He is A. H. Hanson, passenger
 traffic manager of the Illinois Central

Prince Alexander of Teck will be one
of the royal family wintering in foreign
lands this year He has been appointed
by the king to undertake the mission of
representing his majesty al the corona
ton of the King of Siam in December.
This is the first time the prince has been
selected to fulfill such important
court function, but there is no doubt he
will prove equal to it, for he has cons d.
cradle tact and much personal charm.
The prince was educated at Elton, and
was popular in the royal borough even in
his schoolboy days. OF late years he has
lived so much at Henry IT'S Tower
(Windsor CASTLE, and entered so heartily
and Genially into all the interests and
social life of the town, that his absence
will cause perceptible blank there He
and the new King OF Siam were well ac-
quainted in their schoolboy days. The
late King Khulalankarem | sent his sons
and nephews to England to be educated
and the then crown prince was at Elton
for several Years, so that it is easy to
foresee that the present King of Siam will
give a very warm welcome TO King
Georges special envoy all the heart er
because he happens to be an old acquaint-
ance like Prince Alexander.
