The TRUST COMPANY
AND ITS USEFULNESS

perience and judgment of men espe-
cially trained in their respective lines
of work, free from sentiment or preju-
dice and wholly interested in obtain
ing the very best results possible.
There is whole world of meaning
in the two features of permanence and
expert knowledge in connection with
the service afforded by trust COM
pany. 1t is unfortunately too fire.
quently the case that estimates are de-
pleted through the ignorance, or
worse, of individual executors or trus-
tees.
Even the most conscientious and
able person is human, and, therefore,
subject to errors of Judgment arising
from variety of causes, errors that
may cost the estate dearly before dis
covered and rectified. In the case of
a trust company such errors are i'm
possible, for whatever is to be under
taken must, before being carried out,
meet with the approval of men who
are experts in their lines and who
have, at their command, whatever le-
gal or other knowledge may be re-
quired to make assurances doubly
sure.
1t will therefore be seen that in
these matters the trust company not
only guards against error or malad-
ministration, but also saves time and
money. The securing of the same ex-
pert legal and financial assistance
from individuals that is constantly
supplied by the trust company would
entail prohibitive expense even if,
which is much doubted, as good and
practical work could be secured.
Thus the trust company, in addition
to the numerous conveniences afford
ed in its various banking departments.
is of the greatest service to the public
fiduciary capacity and this is evil
denced by the fact that wider and bet
ter appreciation of it's value is gaining
ground throughout the country every
day.

washington, d. c., Feb. 1.-THE
growth OF value to the general public
OF the modern trust company is chief
" development of recent years.
Now that everyone has become accus-
toned to the facilities afforded by the
well equipped trust company, it seems
difficult to understand how people
managed before the days of these in
situations. Like many other valuable
conveniences of the present time, the
trust company is a logical outcome
OF distinct need, and the quick ap-
probation and large patronage which
1t has received from all quarters is
the very best proof of the necessity
that existed for organizations of this
character.
In considering the functions of the
modern trust company it would per-
haps be easier to say that it does not
do more than to compile a complete
and accurate list of it's many and va
ried activities. Affording all the IA
cilities furnished by other banks, the
trust company, in addition, is ena-
bled by the breadth and comprehen-
siveness of its charter to handle any
business matter that an individual is
qualified to undertake.
OF the great advantage possessed by
trust company in exercising it's
functions rests in the permanence of
Its organization, thus assuring that
any business placed in it's charge can
not, under any circumstances, be ex-
posed to such interruption as may
come at any moment through the
death or incapacity of an individual.
As regards experience and ability
to handle the numerous intricacies of
business, the trust company is in the
best position possible, for it's
opinion on any subject is not that OF
an individual who may be influenced
by temporary conditions or who may
be ignorant of certain important de
tails, but represents the combined ex-

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 2.-According
to reports that have reached here

There are a large number of delin-

was made a qualification to vote
There are thousands, it is declared,
who have never paid their poll or
other taxes-some OF them men who
have never gone to the trouble and
expense of qualifying as voter. In
some counties this qualification has
been given but little, if any consid-

but little attention, thus far, but it

county in the state is purged.
In some counties men who have
never paid poll tax, but have been

some counties, there are even more
than in Kinds. In this county, it is
said, fully 1900 persons are delin-
quent. In some of the counties, it is
said the list will run over 1000, while
all Of them have at least few hun

The delinquents are largely farmers
in most of the counties, while the num-
Der of clerks and salaried men is large

Vote Will be Cut.
The vote in the state four years ago
was about 125,0O0, but the indications
are that this number will, on the face
of the books, show an increase, but
by the time the commissioners have
gone over and purged the registration
lists it is probable this number will be
cut down to about 10000 to 10000.
1t is the purpose of the election COM
mission to cut off every unqualified
person registered, il possible, and the

Farmers Begin to Realize Importance
Of Studying Every Field and Mix
ing Fertilizer.

A number of progressive farmers
have made up u combined order for
commercial fertilizers unmixed in the
form of nitrate Of soda, muriate OF
potash and acid phosphate, The first
order of this kind was sent last year
and everyone realizes that they can
save money by ordering In this way,
They also are beginning to realize
the Importance of studying every field
and mixing the fertilizer for that par
ticular field and crop, which can be
done by mixing at home. Some have
had great results by using nitrate OF
soda on the meadows early in the
spring when the grass is just starting,
and we have learned that we must use
more potash to stiifen thesVraw so

SPINNERS WAR ON EXCHANGE
Relations Between Manufacturers AS
ISOLATION and New York lnstitu-
tlon Disrupted.

The American Cotton Manufactur-
ers association has declared war on
the New York cotton exchange, and
the relations between speculator and
spinner, which have been strained for
several years, are completely disrupt
ed. If other means fail 1t Is proposed
to invoke congress to compel the ex-
change to conduct It's operations on
a basis less favorable to the wiles OF
the big manipulators, who have dom
mated prices and the distribution OF
the staple with an eye solely to their
own advantage. President Marsh OF
the exchange admits that its affairs
are conducted in the interest of cotton
merchants rather than manufacturers
or any other class engaged In the
business, says the Washington Post,
The association has no quarrel with
the New Orleans cotton exchange, un-
der the rules of which the worst prac-
tees tolerated In New York are pro-
hibited, but the operations on the lat
ter exchange are so much greater than
on the first named that the unfortu'
nate effects are practically universal
ly felt. Persistent price misquotatlon
is the principal source of complaint,
and as this trick of the ticker crowd
works out to the loss of the manufac'
turer In making big purchases, the
point against the exchange would
seem to be we'll taken. He suffers

they be abnormally high or CORE

maned out of danger on terra lirma,
and Smith and his fireman, by run
ming back over the roofs Of the cars,
could reach safety in few minutes.
To remain on the bridge meant death.
Because Of the steep grade, he could
not back the train out Of peril The
only chance to save the lives Of all
was to dash across the 200-foot tres
tie, trusting to luck that the structure
would not crumble down before the
last of the seven coaches had crossed
It.
Smith released the brakes and
threw the throttle wide open. The en-
gine sprang forward and thrust its
nose into the aisle Of flames. AT
every turn of the wheels the trestle
swayed, groaned and cracked, Cut
ting a passage through the fire and
smoke the train raced across, The
passengers, finding themselves sud
denly within an envelope of fire
placed there by one mans belief In
his luck, screamet, covered and
tainted.
In the tender behind the engine
were 5000 gallons Of oil, fuel for the
locomotive. Smith knew that a loose
valve, tiny leak or an open feed
pipe into which a Jet Of fire might be
sucked would mean an explosion that
would wreck the trestle and send the
entire train In fragments to the bot
ton. However as grim as Jim Bled
soe he urged his iron horse forward
Now the front trucks Of the engine
clattered off the bridge, and now the
engine itself was free. With head out
OF the window, the engineer looked
back anxiously as coach after coach,
all on FIRE, drew off the trestle When
the last had won free, he brought the
train to a standstill.
Out sprang the passengers, white
faced and trembling. They turned to
the bridge, which they pelted In vain
with the extinguishers. Ten minutes
after the last car left the trestle II
Numbered down.

a sudden before George A. Smith of
Los Angeles, who has been for nearly
80 years a locomotive engineer for
the Southern Pacific railroad In an
instant he decided to stake every
thing upon one throw-to rescue all
or none.
Mountain mogul engine No. 907,
with Smith at the throttle straining
against the leash of its brakes, was
grinding and slipping down the steep
side of the Coast range in Soledad
canyon, one of the worst stretches on
the Fresno-Los Angeles division Of
the railroad. Behind it was the mo-
mentum of its own weight and OF

Suddenly Smith, with distended nos

The results Of the careful and minute

emy Of Sciences, says the Pail Mall
Gazette. II was found that the aver
Age height of the Partisan woman has

Py almost IL inches than the women

height for the mothers was found to

daughters S feet 2-5 inches. English
women had thus grown just over ~

255 Parisians measured were mothers
or daughters, or both, is not stated.
The only conclusion to be derived
from the statistics in this connection,
accordingly, is that the Parisienne Of
