The following article on the
condition of the working women
in some occupations in Chicago,
was written by Miss leila Emer-
son, a wealthy young woman of
Jackson, Mich, who has come to
Chicago and allied herself with
the Women's Trades Union
League. These are her own per-
sonal experiences and the results
of her investigation to the pres

in the near future to obtain en-
ployment in a factory, to further
her Investigations.
When she has completed her
Investigations the result will be
presented to the state factory in

SENATOR BACOW.S LARGE
PLACE IN THE PUBLIC LIFE

His physique is so strong and ag-
lie that he hardly suggest sixty years,
while his mind is a better working
arts of a politician are not at all
understood by him, as is likely to be
the case with so many bona fide
statesmen, but the arts of statecraft
he understands like a book and
there is no more assiduous and zeal
GUS worker in the senate than Ba-
con. He is on the floor ever watch
full and quick in debate, a rock of
Gibraltar in defending the practices,
traditions and decorum of the SEN
ate. He is especially endowed with
resources on questions about foreign
affairs. He is the ranking member
tons, and seems destined to be the
next chairman of the committee,
since the next senate will probably
be democratic.
Bacon enjoys not only the conf
dence of his colleagues on the dem
ocratic' side of the chamber, but also
that of the republicans, who have
been pleased to unite with the dem
ocrats in making Senator Bacon pres
ident pro tempore of the senate. To-
day the prospects are that the DEM
ocrats will, after March 4th next,
be in power, not only at the white
house, but also in the senate by a
handsome majority. Such an honor
has not befallen man since 1898,
and not so sweepingly in fifty years.
The need of men, tried and true and
honest to the core, as is Bacon, can
not be exaggerated if democracy is
to steer itself safely in its next four
years of trial.

In THE JUNGLES OF AFRICA
ONE OF GREATEST HUNTERS OF
WORLD MAKES NEW RECORD.
Paul j. Rainey's Hunting Trip Into
Heart of Dark Continent Cost
Sum of $3.50. 900.

NEW YORK.-One of the greatest
hunters of the modern world is Paul
]. Rainey, who is at home in any
part of the universe from the poles
to the tropics and whose experiences
in living range from the palace to
the jungle. He has hunted big game
wherever it was to be found and has
encountered all the rigOrs and perils
of the Arctic.
Perhaps the most notable of his
expeditions was his trip to the heart
of Africa, which consumed thirteen
months from the time he left New
York until he returned. In this ex-
petition he demonstrated his belief
that the hounds which he had bred
on his PLANTATION in Mississippi were
capable of tracking, holding and
even killing the fercest and swiftest
animals of the Veldt or of the jun
gle.
But his expedition achieved more
than this, for he brought back with
him some 5000 specimens for the
Smithsonian Institution at Washing
ton, and a large number of captive
wild animals, which he presented to
also contributed the most notable
page to natural history in decade
by reason of the remarkable and
thrilling pictures which he had made
of wild animals in Their native haunts,
To get these pictures Mr.. Rainey took
with him a battery of cameras and
100000 feet of moving picture films.
The pictures show all the thrills of
hunting wild beasts in their native
jungles.
The expedition spent about ten
months in the heart of Africa, within
five degrees north or south OF the
equator. The heat averaged 120 de-
grees in the shade in the daytime,
and at night it was often necessary
to have the covering of two blankets
for comfort. The altitude in which
they worked was from 5000 to 49,
900 feet, or about that of Pixies
Peak. There were about $50 natives
and IL white men engaged in the
hunt, and in addition there were
horses, camels and other beasts of
burden. All the expenses of the ex-
petition were borne by Mr.. Rainey
and totaled over $250,000. Seventy
six lions were killed, which is a rec
ord for any one expedition.

SEN. SMITH VISITS WILSON
HE AND OTHER SOUTHERNERS
CALL ON THE NOMINEE.
Prof. Wilson Will Not Mix in State
Political Quarrels. Decides Not
to Resign GOvernOrship.

SEAGIRT, N. Three visitors
from the South visited Governor
Wilson Friday. They were Senators
Hoke Smith of Georgia and Culber-
son of Texas and Representative
Henry D. Clayton of Alabama, chair
man of the house judiciary commit
tee. 1t is said that Senator Culber-
son, who is a'member of the national
campaign committee, would discuss
with Governor Wilson pending legis-
lation in congress requiring public
ity before elections of all campaign
contributions.
Formal announcement was made
by Governor Wilson that he will not
resign the governorship of New Jer-
sey during his campaign for the
presidency.
The governor had kept his mind
open on the question of resigning
ever since the Baltimore convention.
Leading democrats in the state,
however, have urged him to follow
the precedent of Grover Cleveland,
who was nominated for the presiden-
cy, but continued in the office of gov
ernor of New York.
Governor Wilson has also made
clear his intention to take no part
in factional quarrels and to keep his
hands off any disagreements demo-
Gratis of any state may have among
themselves. He was asked particul-
larly about the situation in New
York, and said his answer would ap-
ply to all states.
Il don't intend to interfere in any
state where state fights are concern
ed" he said. THAT is the program
not only in New York, but all along
the line 1t is the only proper thing

CHARGES AGAINST ED Conner
One of the Largest and Most Sue
cessfuI Planters of Screven COun-
ty Is Arrested.

AUGUSTA.-The charges against
Mr.. Conner and his foremen have
caused considerable comment. Mr..
Conner is one of the largest farmers
in the state, having sixteen thousand
three hundred acres of land in one
tract in ScreFen county. He operates
his farm on strictly scientific plans,
and last year on twenty-seven hun
dred acres of cotton he made more
than a bale to the acre. He has sew
eral hundred plows, and besides his
agricultural interests he is deeply
interested in stock raising, and has
demonstrated that as fine beef cat
tie can be raised in Georgia as any
where else in the country.
Judge Adams, who is the legal
representative of the defendants,
stated that he felt sure he would be
able to make satisfactory showing
before the commissioner, and, in fact,
he felt that the commissioner would
be so we'll satisfied that he would
not bind the defendants over to the
grand jury.

FELKER'S NEW PROHI BILL
PEOPLE MAY GET A CHANCE TO
VOTE ON BEER QUESTION.
Took Temperance Committee Only
Thirty Minutes to Put ON 1t the
Stamp OF Approval.

ATbANTA.-Senator Felker of the
Twenty-seVenth anticipated Governor
Browns veto of the Tippins prohi-
bition bill, and Immediately dug
down after the referendum, which he
tackled on to two bills he introduced.
One of Senator Felker's bills pro-
poses to prohibit the sale of near
beer and all substitutes for alcoholic
drinks of every kind and description;
the other proposes to abolish locker
clubs. The Tippins bill could do no
more, if as much.
1t didn't take the senate temper
ance committee thirty minutes to
put the stamp of its approval on the
Felker measures, and the senate
probably will pass upon them within
the next three days and send them
over to the house.
Senator Felker has determined to
take this chance, and both his meas
ures provide that they shall be sub
mitted to the people in a special cleo

part in aid of his former ally.
While Senator Smith declined abb
solutely to make any statement up
on the somewhat belated appearance
of Mr.. Alexander in the race there
is every reason to believe he will
keep hands off,"
On entering the senate Mr.. Smith
agreed upon a policy of non-inter-
ference in state affairs, which he has
rigidly adhered to since.
Having been fighting for six years
he resolved to begin placating his
enemies rather than creating new
ones, and reached the conclusion
that a member of the senate ought
not to take an active part in local
state contests This was his attitude
during the discussion of the name OF
Representative Hardwick as a candi-
date for the senate against Mr.. Ba-
con and for govrnor against Mr.. Sla-
ton. The senator is a busy man
these days without taking part in
Georgia politics.

A SIGHT FOR SOCKLESS RUBES
MISS GORDON'S GOLD STOCKINGS
CAUSED PANIC IN A HOTEL.
just the Kind a Girl Ought to Wear
When Climbing Up the Golden
Stairs, Said One Old Maid.

BRETON WOODS, N. H.-Miss
Aline Gordon of New York and her
gold stockings are the subject of
quite some conversation at this point
of the compass. The fact that the
picture of a golden pheasant is work
ed on the front of each of the stock
ings adds somewhat to the general
wonder and admiration of the be-
holders.
Young men and old, as we'll as wo-
men, gaze on the golden stockings
with unaffected interest as Miss Cor
don trips lightly up and down the
hotel stairs or sits on the piazza in
the bright sunlight.
That's just the kind a girl ought
to wear when she's climbing up the
golden stairs observed one cross
old maid after quick glance at Miss
Gordon's glittering ankles.
Two different pairs of these golden
stockings have been worn by Miss
Gordon in the last week. Each pair
cost 500, it is said. There is bare
ly noticeable difference in the tint.
They were woven, according to re-
port, from real cloth of gold, which
is so valuable that the weavers are
watched with the utmost care while
at work.
Gosh, Miranda, it would take a
good many hills of potatoes to pay
for them sox," remarked one native
of New Hampshire to his better half
as they paused within a short dis
lance Of the girl from New York and
feasted their eyes on the glittering
encasement of her lower limbs.

FILIPINO FAMILY CIGARS.
Are Two Feet Five Inches Long and
Three Inches in Diameter.

A cigar, two feet five inches long
and three inches in diameter, recent
ly reached this country from the
Philippine Islands, where such good
ly weeds are by no means regarded
as freaks. There the natives smoke
what they call the family cigars, and
this is one of them. These cigars
are suspended from the ceiling of
the room by two cords, each attach
ed near an end of the cigar, and the
weed is suspended at such hight
as will enable the smoker to sit and
smoke in comfort. They are usually
suspended near window.
Only one cigar Is suspended in the
house at a time, and while the cigar
lasts, which is a good while, it Is
smoked alternately by various mem
bers of the family. When the smok-
er is tired he leaves the cigar and
the next smoker comes along, re-
lights it and puffs away.
