The small boy always knows when
the circus is coming to town. Indeed
he does. No one knows how he knows
it. 1t is in the air and gets to him
long before Dan Robinson's picture
and the picture of the jumping ladies
and the Nuimdian lion and the Bengal
tiger and the big snakes from the
junles of India or Africa appear on the
board about the streets: It certainly
reaches him by sort of wireless tele-
graphy.
Thrills of excitement and antici-
cation begin to agitate in his miad.
The poorer he is the less prOpsect he
has of seeing the big three ring per-
Torrance, the more excited and agi-
tated he becomes Doubt as to wheth-
er he may be able to get in only en-
hances the zest of the occasion. He
will willingly go to school through the
rain ar d will help his mother with the
homework every afternoon in the
week if there is the least hint from
her that the process will land him d
seat
The boy in good circumstances who
carries the calm assurance that when
the time arrives his way will be paid
by his father, is secretly enVied, but
as a matter of fact he does not taste
the full flavor of the circus spirit. 1t
is the little boy who sells papers or
has to earn his own money who knows
the supreme ecstacy of exchanging
the boarded nickels for seat.
With his boyish imaigr alton he
dreams about it before it comes. He
is sure to be at the depot to see the
trains come in and ne follows every
step of the pitching of the temporary
camp with wide open mouth and eyes.
The little fellow follows the parade
from end to end of the town and back
| again. and to him it is one long sue
cession of delights.
And when the hour comes for the
doors of the big tent to open and the
small boy secures seat he is about as
/ happy as the average mortal gets to
be this side Of the gates of paradise.
| 1t is all so real and so beautiful. The
glitter Of the spangles dazZleS his eyes
and penetrates to his soul. To his
young undseriminating eye the marks
of wear ana tear en- the green and
yellow tights are invisible. Ii is all
actual silk and gold and diamonds AM
beauty and dash and danger anC
strength and grace and agility anC
ease.
The Madamoiselle with the French
name and Signorina with the Italian
name fire his heart. The fact that the
lady is on the shady side of thirty, has
the features, shoulders and girth OF q
man, and could lick blacksmith with
one blow of her fist matters not tt
him. To the ardent. poetic eye of the
youth she is eighteen, tender, graceful
and altogether lovely. Many a mar
would give all he has to be boy agair
and the circus is the nearest he ever
gets to the wish.

TAFT ORDERED
INVESTIGATION
PROBABLE POLITICAL EFFECT ON
HIS REELECTION DID NOT IN
FLUENCE DETERMINATION.

Los Angeles, Dec. 10. President
Taft personally initiated the govern
ment's investigation both here and at
Indianapolis into the dynamiting con-
spiracy in which the Mcnamara
brothers figured.
The president, when he visited Los
Angeles on October 16, was apprised
by Oscar Lawler, then an assistant Of
District Attorney Fredericks, Of the
strong case built up by the latter
against the McNamaras.
President Taft was told that the
McNamaras were not the only guilty
persons, and he gave his orders two
days after he left Los Angeles. The
president heard details of alleged
tampering with witnesses and of in
ability of the state authorities to bring
offenders in other parts of the coun-
try to justice. The presidents action
went long way toward clearing a
perplexing situation. ~
The local federal authorities had
declined to take any action until they
received word from Washington.

COTTON RECORD
WILL Be BROKEN
DURING SEASON
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND
BALES WILL BE SHIPPED
FROM THIS PORT.
Up to Yesterday Approximately
235,ooo Bales Had Already Been
Shipped to Foreign and Domestic
Ports-Season Not Yet Closed.

All previous cotton records at the
port of Brunswick will be broken dur
ing the present season. AS a matter
of fact, up to the present time almost
as many bales have been shipped from
this port this season as in any preyi-
Gus season.
Unofficial figures obtained yesterday
show that approximately 235,000 bales
have already been shipped, to foreign
and domestic ports. This cotton was
carried by steamers of the- Strachan
line, together with that handled over
the Clyde steamers to New York.
BY the end of the season, it is con-
servatively estimated, upwards of
300, 900 bales will be shipped The sea-
son is not near over yet, and it may
be that hundred thousand bales VIII
be shipped before the final close,
which will establish a new record for
the port.
The official figures cannot yet be
secured, but it is known that the rec
ord so far this season has passed that
of any other year. 1t is also UNDER
stood that the Strachan line has sew
eral more steamers chartered to load
here before the end of the season.
and large shipments OF cotton are be-
ing received here daily for delivery
upon the arrival OF these ships.

ROBBERS MURDER
MAN And WIFE
FARMER NEAR CHARLOTTE AN
SWERS CALL FOR HELP
AND is KILLED.

Charlotte, N. c., Dec. 13.-News
reaching here early today tells Of
the murder of John Dixon, a promi-
nent farmer of Cleveland county, in
this state, and his wife, late last
night. Robbery is said to have been
the motive of the crime.
Two men are said to have gone to
the home of the murdered man last
night and asked for assistance in re-
leasing a team from a ditch in which
it had fallen. The farmer went TO
the aid of the men and was killed.
The two men then returned to Dix
on's home and beat the wife until it
was thought she was dead. She sur
vived, however, and was able to re-
late the affair this morning. She died
later. H.aRsa
The farmer is said to have sold
some cotton a day or two ago in
Shelby, twelve miles from his home,
and the men are thought to have been
in search of money believed to be in
the home.
A child one year old was found in
the home of its slain parents un-
harmed, but bespattered with blood
about its clothing. Posses of men and
boys in autos, on horses and afoot are
securing the country near the scene
of the crime, and it is believed a
lynching will occur if the guilty par
ties are apprehended.

RIGHTS OF U. S.
MUST Be GUARDED
CONGRESSMAN SULZER ASKS
CONGRESS TO ARRoGATE
1882 TREATY.

washington, Dec. 13.-Abrogation of
the Russian treaty of 1882 because of
race and religious discrimination in
the granting Of passports to American
citizens, demanded in resolutions
framed by Representative Sulzer. of
New York, and Senator Culberson, of
Texas, was discussed in a speech in
the house today by the former.
Mr.. Sulzer is chairman of the for
elgn affairs committee, which unani-
mously reported his bill favorably. He
declared that for nearly half cen
tury Russia had persistently refused
to live up to the treaty or to recognize
passports of American citizens with
out discrimination on account of race
or religion. He declared it was a
question that affected the rights of all
American citizens and that Russia not
only refuses to recognize American
Baptist missionaries, Catholic priests
passports held by Jews, but those by
and Presbyterian ministers.
Right Must Be Protected.
The United States, he said, must
adhere tenaciously to the fundamental
principle that the rights of citizens at
home or abroad shall not be impaired
on account of race or religion. He
said that the United States govern
ment had carefully lived up to its OBJ
legations with Russia.
The time for action by congress
has come" said Mr.. Sulzer. There
can be no arbitration of this; no more
delay A new treaty should be ar
ranged in which Russia can find no
loophole to enable her to discriminate
against any class of American citi-
zens on account of race or religion.
The awakening has come with keen
realization of the affronts we have
suffered for years at the hands of a
government notorious for it's lack of
human sympathy"

Yesterday Morning.

Traffic on the Southern railway was
tied up yesterday for several hours by
a rear-end freight train collision at

PERKINS WANTS
NEW COURT IN

FINANcIER TELLS SENATE CON-
MERGE COMMITTEE CHAOS

Think New Board Could Relieve Con.
dtions Now Hindering Busne SIS
Under Sherman Law al Ala Coun-
try-Corporations in Dark.

Washington, Dec. 13. - George W.
Perkins, director of the United States
Steel Corporation, told the senate in
terstate commerce committee today
that the practical way to give the coun-
try's big business relief from exist
ing uncertainty and depression would
be to create in the commerce and
labor department business power to
license corporations doing interstate
or International business.
Violation of regulations laid uown
by such commission, he urged,
should be punishable by Imprisonment
of individuals, rather than by revoca-
ton of licenses. "A
Mr.. Perkins said this commission
or court should be composed largely
of experienced business men. Ability
to comply with conditions laid down
by congress in crceasing the commits
sion and with regulations prescribed
by the commission itself, he declared,
should be the test of an applicant for
license. Publicity, both before and af
ter licensing, should be the essential
feature of these regulations, and every
company should be required to secure
the approval of the commission of all
its affairs, from capitalization to bus
mess practice. "A
Mr.. Perkins suggested that in the
beginning only broad principles be
laid down with a view to celebrating
and perfecting them as conditions re-
quired.
After proposing this plan for i'm
mediate relief, Mr.. Perkins offered an
other for prospective relief" This
contemplated the appointment of a
commission to study the Sherman law
and the various suggestions that have
been made regarding it's repeal
amendment and amplification, and to
report on the wisdom and practical
bility of a national incorporation act.

Smith was named for the place. He
has been in the office for eight years,
serving under Mr. Brown for two
years. His appointment is a deserved
one and President Taft could hardly
have selected a man who would have
been more desirable to the people of
Brunswick generally. Mr.. Eli
oft, because of his long connec-

The new postmaster announces that
he will appoint Eugene S. Smith, now
chief mailing clerk, to the position
of assistant postmaster. He has been
a member of the force at the post
office for two or three years and has
made an excellent record and his pro-
motion is a deserved recognition of
his energy and ability.
The changes in the office will take
place on the first of the year and
Mr.. Smith will leave Immediately
thereafter for his new home in Gin

DIFFERENT DESIGNS OF
NEW POSTAGE STAMPS
Are Now Being Issued TO the POST
offices.

Today will begin the Issue Of tkirz.
teen new stamp designs. Twenty five
million 2-cent stamps and 10000, 900
1-cent stamps will be issued from the
bureau of engraving and printing
every day.
The change in the designs means
that none of the postage stamps in the
future will be exactly like those of
the present time. Instead of Franklin's
face appearing on the 1cent stamp, as
is the case now, the face of Wash
ington will be on all six of the stamps
of the lowest denominations. Those
of The 8, 10, Is, 50-cent and 81 varie-
ties, will bear the face of Franklin.
Besides the picture of Washington
on the 1-cent stamp, the numeral IL"
will be used. The present design has
the "one" spelled out. The same is
true of the 2-cent stamp The new
2-cent stamp will carry the numeral
"2" in each of the lower corners. On
the stamps of 3, 4, 5 and 6-cent de-
nominations, the wreath surrounding
the head of Washington, as shown on
the 2-cent stamp, will be eliminated
and the denomination printed in
curved line above the head.
The. bureau is now delivering large
numbers of new registry stamps 60
the postoffice department. The origi-
nal order is for 100000. They are
being distributed throughout the
country
Postage stamps may be used for a
registry fee, but a registry stamp
cannot be used as postage.

SMITH RESIGNS;
ELLIOTT NAMED
As POSTMASTER
BRUNSWICK PEOPLE SOMEWHAT
SURPRISED AT CHANGES IN
THE LOCAL OFFICE.
MIR. Smith Resigns to Accept a Posi-
tion as Sales Manager of the Globe
Werncke Company-E. S. Smith
Assistant Postmaster.

Albert NJ. Smith, postmaster in tnts
city for the past six years, has ten
dered his resignation. it has been ac-
cepted, and c. L. Elliott, for eight
years assistant postmaster, has been
appointed by President Taft to sue
ceed him. The appointment was made
by the president on Tuesday.
The announcement yesterday OF
this change in the postoffice came as
a surprise to a large number of peo-
pie. A rumor gained ground some
time ago that Postmaster Smith con-
templated rendering his resignation,
but only few were aware that he had
taken such action.
Mr.. Smith, in an interview given
out after the appointment of Mr.. Ell
hott, stated that he had resigned for
the purpose of accepting a position as
sales manager with the Globe-Wer-
nicke company, of Cincinnati, the old
est and largest company in existence
manufacturing filing cabinets, section
al bookcases, office equipment, etc.
Mr. Smith decided some time ago to
accept this lucrative position and IN
a letter to the postoffice department,
resigning his local position, the assis-
tant postmaster was recommended az
the position. Mr. Smith has made a
record in the local office of which he
may justly feel proud. He has been
an efficient, able and accommodating
postmaster, and under his manage
ment many improvements have been
made in all departments of the office,
and the service now given to the peo-
pie of Brunswick is the best the city
has ever had. His friends will regret
to learn that the change will cause
him to remove his home to CinCr.-
natl.
Mr. Elliott, who will succeed to the
postmastership On January /, has Ions
been connected with the local office
in the capacity Of assistant postmas-
ter. He served under Postmaster
