clear ito the Igorot.
Under the old Spanish regime, the
Igorots INDUCED in the gentle art Of
hunting each others heads. To the
Spaniards who travelled through the
mountains armed to the teeth and as
seldom as possible, these people were
more or less %enshrouded in mystery
and were probably referred to as
wicked heather or boyle men. But
Uncle Sam stepped in, and, owing
largely to the wise efforts of DR..
Dean G.. Worcester (now Secretary of
the interior Of the Philippine Insular
Government) and of Governor Pack,
together with their deputies, has dis
couraged this disconcerting practice
so that it goes on only in very remote
places and very quietly. Excellent
mountain trails have been made into
the unexplored interior and a single
standard of justice ito all tribes has
been established. AS far as possible
the Igorots are allowed 10 retain their
own customs, which have the force Of

WHY THE TURK LOST.

The collapse of the military power
of the Turk has amazed European ex-
perts. None has been more sur
prised than the Turk himself. The
war Office at Constantinople fully APP
preciates the splendid organization
and efficiency of the Bulgarian mill
tary establishment. In fact, the Bull
garian frontier was the only one
properly guarded, the Turkish com.
manders evidently regarding Servia,
Greece and Montenegro as negligible.
The Turkish explanation of the de.
feat to the Ottoman arms is given to
Review readers in the following words

THE NEXT PRESIDENT.

When an election is once over and
the results are ascertained, the Amer
lean people have a happy fashion of
laying aside all feeling Of acrimony,
and Of reconciling themselves cheer
fully to the will of the majority. Dur
ing the campaign, Governor Wilson's
political opponents naturally did their
best to find debating ground against
his views as expressed from time 10
time. But he kept admirable poise
and temper, talked generalities in a
charming, yet statesmanlike manner,
and found himself on good terms with
everybody at the end of the cam
paign. Men who have shown them
selves fitted to serve in the presl-
dency of an American university
must possess executive talent of a
high order and experience of a very
wide range. The business Of being a
university president requires great
power of decision and develops
marked personality. If Governor
Wilson could have served in Con-
gress for a term, he would perhaps
have been by just so much the better
fitted for headship of the national
government. But it is the general
belief that we are fortunate in having
a man of his great attachments and
high character to be our next Presi-
dent, and his wellwishers are mil
lions strong.-From "The Progress OF
the World" in the American Review
of Reviews for December.

has been quite sick, is much improv-

Sunday with the sewerage gang.
Miss Ella Taylor made her mother
a flying visit last week, and while
here she decided that she would take
her mother and two brothers, Hill

spend the winter. So they left last
Friday. Prof. R. o. Laws and wife
were in Wartrace last Sunday. Mr..
Conal Ramsey and wife have moved

officers and ultimately of the privates,
in party politics, created SO many
personal animosities and resulted In
so much lack of discipline that many
prominent officers resigned or were
asked to resign, and others were muir

of all was perhaps the Tripolitan war,
which the Young Turks o~bgtinately re-
fused to terminate, and the recent Al
bantam uprising-undoubtedly instiga-
ted by Italy-with the result of the
downfall of the Young Turks, and con-

of being continually called to the col

all transport departments, disorgan-

To this was opposed a well-prepared
and organized army, united and ready
for any sacrifice, modified in a short

hurting itself with all its power quick

giving himJ time to half mobilize. I'm

STEVENSON lALA.l NOTES.


Sad news reached this place last
Wednesday night, December 4th. Mr.
Walter Daniel got killed at the ce-
ment plant, Richard City, Tenn, and
was brought down Thursday, and on
Friday he was laid away in the Car
! gyle Cemetery. Mr.. Will Daniel, OF
| Nashville, Tenn, came to look on his
brother Walter the last time. Many
| of the citizens of Stevenson paid their
last respects to Mr.. Walter by fol
lowing to the cemetery. He leaves
a dear old father, three sisters,
| three brothers, a loving wife, six chill
dren and a host of friends to mourn
his demise. One thing we can rejoice
about. Mr.. Walter Daniel made peace
with God in early life, became a con-
sistent Christian and member OF the
! M. e. Church and remained so until
death. We are satisfied that it is our
loss but heavens gain. Sleep on,
| Brother Walter, and take your rest;
we all loved you, but the Lord loves
YOU best. l can safely say that the
Globe sympathizes with the bereaved
! family as well as other friends. Chris
tians, remember the widow and or
phans as it is a Christians duty. Mr..
II. K. G. Smith, of Southland, Ark,
is in our town visiting the bedside OF
his very sick mother, Mrs. Mary A.
Smith. whose case seems hopeless.
| Also her daughter, Mrs. Viola McFar-
land. of Decatur, Ala, is at her bed
side. Mr.. George Merriman, Of South
| Pittsburg, Tenn, and Miss Irene Cur

| holy bonds of wedlock last Friday
night. Mr.. and Mrs. Merriman left

FLATS BEATEN
A SECOND Time

Last Saturday evening, before the
largest crowd yet assembled in a. b.
Hall, Iditarod, the second games of The
double basketball series were played
between Flat and Iditarod, the Iditarod
ladies' winning by the narrow margin
of 10 to s, and the local mems team
winning by the score OF 20 to 8. Both
games were replete with exciting
plays and the results were in doubt I'M
Ill the very finish.
The individual and team play was
good on all sides, and showed marked
improvement on the previous week. The
ladies' game, in which the better half
OF the interest and betting seemed to
be conferred, was first on the program,
and at the conclusion of the first half
the local five seemed to have victory
within their grasp, the score then
being to 2 in their favor; but during
the interval the visitors seemed to
have puzzled out a combination, for
their work and form in the second half
wes a distinct surprise and reversal,
and they almost snatched victory from
defeat-many being OF the opinion that
il the game had gone five minutes
longer such would have been the
result. The game, to a disinterested
bystander, seemed unnecessarily rough
and aggressive for ladies play. The
coaches should teach more cleverness
and less Drawn, thereby making d
prettier game and also minimizing the
risk of injury. Also, the roofing Of
some had too personal favor. None
should forget the rules Of good conduct
because the ladies' have consented to
play for our amusement. Let there be
no selection of PLAYERS for personal re-
marks in the ensuing games: it might
disrupt the sport.
In the mems game an effort had been
made TO balance the talent equally,
and Iditsrod was represented by an
entirely different set of players from
the previous week. The visitors dis
played greatly improved form over the
last game, and when the first half
ended with the score G TO s, the betting
was even that they would win, with
few takers. But the loss OF Labelle
who was in poor condition from the
trail, was disastrous for them. and
although they fought o2gedy. they
lost the half by the score of Ii to 2.
The play of Labelle was matter of
much favorable comment by every one
He has good eye for baskets, and is
