HOKE SMITH To
SAVE j. s. SEED

United States Senator Hoke Smith
who is nothing if not unique now and
then, has conceived a novel idea with
respect TO the distribution of his sena-
torial share of government garden seed.
The senator has decided that he will
send seed only to such people as really
wish them
Heretofore. the congressional idea
seemingly has been to send garden seed
to people who didn't want them and
who could not in any circumstances. be
expected to use them. Indeed, garden
seed had come to be looked upon as
mere reminders to recipients that Con-
gresham So-and- So was still on the
job in Washington, battling for the
rights of the common people against
the hosts of plutocratic iniquity and
sin, and so forth and so on.
Nobody, heretofore, has been expect
ed to take congressional garden seed
seriously-and precious few people
have taken them that way.
Here's the Smith Idea.
Georgia's Junior United States sena-
tor has notion that anything worth
paying good government money for is
worth putting somewhere likely to yield
a material return to somebody.
Even a government plebeian so hum
BILE and so persstently abused as a
package Of turnip seed may be made to
serve a noble and uplifting purpose in
this world, in the Smith senatorial phil
losophy. SO the senator viii not send
turnip seed, nor any other kind Of seed
TO people who desire them not.
Senator Smith is tired of having
thoughtless and careless folks kick IN
Gle Sans garden seed around--they
gotta quit it.
The senator has 10000 packages OF
garden seed and 1000 packages Of dow
er seed. II you wish some. drop the
senator a line, and you viii get them at
once He has figured that fair TO
middling crop OF garden sass" may be
produced from 10000 packages Of seed
and he wishes to push along any gar
dener. amateur or otherwise who actu-
ally and really and truly wants to be
nushed

According to the early plans a
call will be issued for a conven-
ton of the new Progressive party
to be held at Denver during the
first week of August. The pro-
gressive Western states have
fiocked to the colonel with assur-
ances of support of the new
movement, and a proportion of
the representatives Of the staid
Eastern states, alarming to the
old guard, has come forward with
promise of remaining under the
Roosevelt banner.
In the meantime the national conven-
ton met at shortly after 10 O'Clock this
morning, determined to finish up the
big grist of business before adjourn
ment which likely will not come before
Sunday morning. The plan Is to COM
plete the preliminary business of the
convention and then nominate Taft on

Grace Recovering
Wife Is Silent.

IT has been ruled by the supreme
court that a husband can not testify
against his wife in a felony case, nor
can his sworn statement before death
be admitted as evidence. There has
never been another witness brought
forward in this case, and 1t has been
the belief of lawyers that the chain of
circumstantial evidence against Mrs.
Grace was not strong enough to con-
vince a jury which must find defend
ant guilty beyond reasonable doubt"
The Indictment by the grand jury was
not unexpected, as this tribunal need
only have evidence enough to give "rea
sonable belief" that the defendant is
guilty.
Grace is recovering rapidly at his
mothers home in Newman. The opera
ton recently performed revealed the
fact that his spine was not fractured,
and it is believed that he will be able to
walk again within a few months. Mrs.
Grace, who is out on bond pending
trial is living quietly with Mrs. Louise
Wilson, a trained nurse. in West End,
She will not discuss the proba ility of
y divorce or trial.

Hot Fight on

Minority members of the Republican
convention on rules drew up today a
report for presentation to the conven-

delegate representation of the Southern

all the delegates on record
A hot fight was expected over their
plan of the minority including mem

The minority report asks that the
present rule fixing the number of dele

have one delegate and that additional
delegates be allowed for EACH 10000
Republican votes or majority fraction
thereof cast in a district. This would

Brilliant Future
Predicted for Doctor.

DR.. Bell recognized the name instant
ly. He remembered Foshee from the
time ten years ago when they gradu-
ated from the medical school together,
with the prediction of the instructors
there that Foshee was destined to make
such a name in his profession as few
men have won. Next he remembered
him in Brewton when DR. Foshee was
married to a girl of one Of Alabama's
finest families, who added a large for
tune to the one that Foshee already
had.
At the outset the young doctors So
cial and professional life was brilliant,
and in his practice he had already be-
gun to win the high reputation that his
professors said would make him fa
nous. Children were born and DR.. Fo-
shee and his family occupied an envia-
BILE position.
Then of sudden Foshee began to go
back. His friends Tested Of his dis
fractions and his eccentricities at first.
They said it was another case of Sher-
lock Holmes-the brilliant mind that
needed more thought-action than the
town he lived in could afford him. The
drugs he used, they said, would be only
a temporary stimulant. When his mind
found other work to occupy it, he would
become the old brilliant Foshee again.
and they laughed good humoredly at
his alteration Of a day"
But soon the young doctor began to
show really serious symptoms, He de-
veloped hallucination that his family

36 FEET OF WIRE
C0ILED IN AORTA
New York SURGEON Performs
A Remarkable Operation
On Big Artery

A notable operation for an an
eurism of the aorta was success
fully performed upon Oscar Mel
son, Swedish cabinet-maker at
Bellevue Hospital, New York, last
week, by DR.. William G. Lusk, one
Of the attending surgeons. in the
presence of TWENTY-FIVE members Of
the hospital staff and outside physi-
clans.
DR.. Lusk's last patient, suffer-
ing from an aneurism Harry Crit
fin upon whom he operated at Bell
evue five months ago, is now enjoy
ing life with twelve feet of platin-
lied gold wire coiled along the inner
wall Of his aorta. The case of Mel
son was the more serious and the
surgeon was obliged to use thirty
six feet of wire before completing
his delicate task.
Nelson applied for admission to
the hospital on July 16. Examina-
ton disclosed the fact that his aorta,
or great artery, springing from the
left ventricle Of the heart and form.
| ing the main trunk Of arterial circu.
lation, had become greatly distended
He was placed on a diet and prep.
AIRED for the operation.
Nelson's heart action was so bac
that DR.. Lusk did not dare give hin
an anesthetic. but simply used co
caine to deaden the pain of the in
cision. Nelson was conscious al
the time the surgeon was at work.
Part Of the fifth and sixth rib,
were removed. "A needle was inser
ted in the aorta and through the ey'
was threaded an end Of thirty-si,
feet of platinized gold wire on /;
spool corresponding in size to tn,

inside the wall it retained its spira
form. Then electric currents from
a small battery were sent through
the wire. causing the blood to be
