TREES IN FULL BLOOM
result OF HOT SPELL
Peach Crop OF Next Year
Threatened

With trees blooming TO- the second
time this year and latent buds eyinc-
ing an alarming precocity the 1912
peach crop Of middle Georgia is in
serious jeopardy, and will unQues-
tionably be damaged to the extent Of
thousands of dollars if the present
unreasonable weather continues. The
unprecedented warm wave Of late
September and early October has
brought about a condition that is
without a parallel in the history Of
fruit growers Of this section. The
scanty late blooming OF one or two
trees has occurred before, but never
have whole orchards been preclpitated
into a profuse bloom as is the case
in many peach orchards in this sec
ton of south Georgia.

In all probability. not a few patrons watched for opportunities to ge. a 3 cents ride-so provision was made as oon as possible whereby nobody could lake advantage of the cents fare, and cars in sufficient numbers were provided.

GROWING HEALTHIER
But London's Marriages and Births
 Are Both Falling Off

London, February 1L-If London's death rate for 1909 be compared with the ten years of 1ss1-190o the result, expressed in terms of lives, or "life-capital." !" shows a saving of 24so2 lives. represent ing gain to the community of 1,0S0, 7S4 years of '1ife-capital.'
 This interesting illustration of the in creasing healthiness of the metropolis Is given in the report for 1909 of the medi- cal officer of health of the London county council (Sir Charles F. Murphy, M D. issued recently.
 There were 67,632 deaths in the County of London in that year. and although the death rate, 14 per 1000. was slightly high CT than in the preceding year-the rate was lower than recorded in any of the 13 big towns. except Bristol and Licester.
 In the period of 1904-19OS the death rate in London was exceeded by the rates of Paris Copenhagen. St. Petersburg, Ber- lin, Vienna. Rome and New York, and in 1909 was lower than ten foreign cities except Brussels and Amsterdam. Tn 1909 the city of London had the highest death rate (22.3) and Hampstead the lowest Q01). The highest death rate on the basis of the registrar-generars an- nual summary of population, namely. that of the city of London t20.3) becomes reduced to ITO on the equalization of rate estimate, the highest rate on the latter basis being that of Shoreditch Q8.O.
 Births in 1909 numbered 11S,b59. repre- senting rate of PAP per 1000, the lowest recorded in London since the institu- ton of civil registration
 London marriages in 1909 numbered 3s,176, rate of 15.S per 1000, the lowest on record.
 All these figures are based on a popu- lation of 4,S33. .938

CELEBRATION HAD
 A VERY SAD END

Paris, February 11.-(Special.)-A pa- thetic story comes from the little town of vaux. Mime. Gabrielle Lspartette would have reached her hundredth birthday to- day and every one had prepared to take part in celebrating the occasion.
 The mayor. two senators, a deputy, the governor of Verdun, and other off cials. were to call on her and present an address and handsome gift. towards which every man and woman in the town had subscribed.
 In the evening the streets were to have been illuminated and grand concert was to have taken place.
 Mme Lispartette. who was in excellent health. had been looking forward very much to the great day.
 Her youngest and only living son, Etienne, aged 70. presented her with a handsome black silk dress, which she was to have worn on the occasion, and she had taken the greatest pride and delight in trying it on.
 But while washing her linen in the vil- lage stream she caught cold. Influenza supervened. and several times during last week she said that she scarcely dared to hope to see her birthday.
 Her fears were realized. for she was found dead in her. bed yesterday morning from heart failure caused by over ex- citement in anticipation of the festivi- ties in her honor. f

LONE YOUTH KEEPS
 FIFTY AT BAY
Five Hours Siege in Italian Town Was Like the Recent London
 Occurrence

Rome, February H. Especially - Re- gently the world laughed at the story of two London anarchists who held one thousand English policeman, the Scots Guards, a battery of royal artillery, and big section of the fire department at bay. Here is story of a similar char acter differing In this respect that there was only one desperado and about fifty soldiers and policemen.
 The little Italian town of Casale Mont ferrato has been the scene of a five-hour siege, an armed force of policemen and soldiers being kept at bay by Giuseppe Panelli youth of eighteen.
 J Giuseppe came home after release from prison and at once began to terror ize his parents. His father complained to the police, but when the latter called at the house the youth barricaded him self in a room and fired shots through the window.
 Policemen, carabiners and soldiers were hurried to the spot, and the house was isoated. After five hours siege Giuseppe's parents succeeded in persuad- ing him to surrender.
 There has been renewal of the ru- mors that the Pope would soon name a number of cardinals, probably in March. The better opinion is that no consstory for the creation of cardinals will be held during 1911. The Pope has said nothing about the probability of adding new mem bers to the college of cardinals. Hence predictions regarding the presence of Archbishop of Westminster are likely to be falsihed. It was said that he would receive the hat during his stay here The same applies to the granting of the cardinals hat to prelates in other countries for example: France, Portu- gal the United States and other coun- tries. Those here who are in a condition to measure the thought prevailing in the Vatican consider that no new appoint ments to the cardinalate will be made before 1912.
 While Archbishop Ireland and Arch bishop Farley are regarded as possibil- ties Mgr. Falconio, the papal delegate to Washington, has friends here who are urging him for the cardinalate.
 Mgr. Falconio was naturalized as a citi- zen of the United States over forty years ago and has also voted.
 A big private ballet and review is being arranged here by an Italian duchess, an American by birth.

ously disappeared in 1865. after murder ing a farmer and robbing him. The trial proceeded in his absence, Vitale being sentenced to life Imprisonment.
 few days ago the police learned that an old man and woman occupied a se- cluded hut in an almost inaccessible locality of high lava peak on Mount Etna. They identified the man as yi- tale, and arrested him with great diffl- culty, as, despite his seventy years, the brigand was still strong enough to offer vigorous resistance, and almost succeeded in escaping.
 Countess Tarnowski, who is serving a long term of Imprisonment for melting the murder of Count Kamarowski, left Venice few days ago with an escort of carabineers for the prison at Milan. in order to undergo a surgical operation
 The Countess has been causing the gravest anxiety to the prison authorities by a succession of fits, followed by in somnia and visitatons of panic, cul- minating In persecution mania. In dread of being poisoned, she refuses to eat, resists being put to bed. and bivouacs on the floor most of the night.
