ALABAMA TRAGEDY.

Drowned Near the Town of
MaysviIIe.

Two men, a woman and a girl were

we're driving across a small stream

the people of that section of Early
county and those living across the
river in Alabama have become thor
oughly aroused and have been apply
ing the torch rather freely to negro
lodge buildings, school houses and
churches. Friday night three negro
lodges, two churches and one school
house was laid in ashes by the mob,
which is bent on revenging the death
of Marshal Newberry.
New trouble arose over some neg
roes barricading themselves in
house and firing upon a crowd OF
whites who were in search OF the neg
70 murderer West. This fire was re-
turned by the whites and the building
in which the negroes had barricaded
themselves was riddled with bullets
and three of the negroes were killed.
AS a result of the death of Marshal
Newberry three negroes have been

whipped and told to leave. 1t is said
every negro in that section is heavily
armed.
The Flowers Lumber company have
been forced to shut down their large
saw mill on account of not having
sufficient number of negroes on hand

it is said that there is some talk of

.sAFE-MAKER VS.. sAFE-BREAKER
Two Cracksmen Succeeded in Obtain
ing Work in Safe Factory.

ing Work in Safe Factory.
A number of years ago two pros
pective safe-breakers succeeded in
obtaining employment in two differ
ent safe factories, worked over
period of years in the various de-
partments, gained all the information
that they desired, and, subsequently
working together, managed to battle
the safe-makers by their skill in
opening complicated safes in differ
ent parts of the country. The police
were at a loss to understand how the
safes had been opened, and only upon
the apprehension of the two men sew
eral years later was it learned that
the jobs had not been inside ones,
as was originally suspected, but had
really been the work of two men who
had been initiated into the mysteries
of safecraft and had put their knoWI-
edge to practical use. This put the
safe-makers on their guard, and an
exceedingly complicated system was
Immediately put into force whereby
not only was the pedigree OF every
workman looked into closely, but
the work among the employees was
so separated that no one man or two
men could gather enough informa-
ton about a safe to put it to danger
Gus use afterWard. Furthermore
when an employe is discharged or
when he voluntarily leaves the posi-
ton his actions are watched, and, al
though the safe manufactures refuse
to discuss this particular point, it is
a matter of record that any former
employee of a safe company who is
possessed of any intimate informa-
ton regarding the secrets of that
company's safes is kept under con-
slant surveillance. AS an illustra-
ton of the thoroughness with which
this is done there may be cited the
case of a former superintendent of
one of the principal safe companies,
who was discharged eight years ago
for intoxication, who subsequently
sought and obtained a position as
superintendent of an iron foundry in
the west and who has now held that
position for the past seven years,
who has done his work we'll, who is
yet kept under the eye of a detect
i've who is in the safe COmpany's pay.
There is not the slightest reason to
doubt the mans integrity, but as
has been suggested by the mans en-
ployer, who knows his superintend-
ent is being watched, the safe COM
pany is unwilling to take the slight
est chance.-GeOrge Jean Nathan in
Harper's Weekly.

is A BLOOD-CURDLING TALE
ROckefeIlers Million Dollar Campaign
Against HoOkwOrm Causes Whole
sale Slander of South.

The hookworm is doubtless as real
as pellagra or yellow fever, and
though less feared is probably more
widespread But it is not sapping
the vital energies of the southern
states, and the extravagant utter
ances of it's enthusiastic discoveries
have but furnished material to those
who, for some reason not altogether
clear, seem disposed to point to the
south as a land of calamity and dis
ease as we'll as of sociological cOndi-
tons likely to alright the best class
of immigrants.
The Jacksonville Times Union
quotes the following from "col-
umn of rawlings" published at Rome,
N. Y:
Medical scientists are appalled, at
the ravages of the hookworm, which
has not been inaptly named the
American murderer. Probably one
third of the entire population of the
south, from below the latitude of
| Norfolk and from Florida westward,
are living in misery because of it.
Some are merely lazy and languid,
lacking the ambitions of normal hui
man beings. Others are stunted,
anemic, waxen-hued, stolid, dropsical
beings, whose existence is a curse to
themselves and a menace to all who
come in contact with them. In ex-
IRENE cases there are whole fami-
/ lies of these unfOrtunates who have
sunk below the level of the beasts of
| the field"
Such utterances would be merely
laughable were not the south's inter
ests so seriously affected by them
Who wants to settle or even invest in
country where 'one-third of the
entire population" are fast being
hookwormed to the level of the
beasts of the field, and are a menace
to all who come in contact with
them?"
If the hookworm fighters think
they need another million dollars fol
| their work it would pay the south
ern states to take up a collection il
every county and furnish the requir
ed sum rather than allow campaign
ers to go Clamoring after philanthro
pists through the north and west
prefacing their request for fund
with such blood-curdling tales a
that quoted above.-Macon Tele

How it can be done is explained in
the current number Of the Journal
of the American Medical Association
by Dr.. William w. Carter, assistant
surgeon of the Manhattan Eye, Ear
and Throat hospital of New York.
He successfully performed several
operations Of this character.
The best case is that which restOr-

man who came out of an accident
with his nose so disfgured that there
was little of it left. The surgeon
took a piece two inches in length
from the patients ninth rib, and
resting one end of it on the remain
ing tip of the nose and the other on
the nasal process of the frontal bone
grated it with care.
The still living bone of the rib
united with the nasal structure and
formed a rafter which effectually
supported the flaps of skin which
were brought up over this newely
fashioned feature. Photographs
taken before and after show a mark

part of the patient.
