INvENTS A COTTON PICKER
Albany Mans Device Is Part Wagon

nucla Cleans Field Quickly.

ALBANY, GA cotton picker
that is not a cotton picker, but which
bids fair to revolutionize the gather
ing of the great staple crop OF the
South, has been patented by an Al
bantam. and patents are now pend
ing. The inventor is Albert Hender-
son.
Mr., Henderson's picker does not
get the open cotton out of the Doll.
It is a cotton picker's helper" and
so efficient device is it that it is
asserted a man or woman using 1t IN
a cotton field can easily pick two and
half to three times as much cotton
in a day as by hand.
The invention seems to be part
wagon, part wheelbarrow and part
bicycle. 1t gives the cotton picker
using 1t a comfortable seat from
which to work, and places him near
the ground, on level with the open
cotton bolls. 1t relieves him OF the
weight of the cotton bag on neck OF
shoulders, and a simple propelling
device carries it along from plant to
plant. A force of pickers equipped
with the little machines can clean
out a cotton field in less than hall
the time that would be required or
dinarily.
Mr.. Henderson says the machines
will be inexpensive, and that the or
binary field laborer can afford Il
own one. He expects to manufacture
them for use during the next cotto1
season.

HORSE MEAT IN PARIS,
Six Hundred Butchers Slaughter
$4,000 Horses in Three Years.

AOESOOU AAOA SSo IN ANNNA
The eating of horses is as old as
the world, and now that every pre-
caution is taken, as it is in Paris, to
see that no diseased meat ever comes
into the market the horse, as it is
supplanted by the motor in the
streets, may in turn GUST the OK from
the poor mans table. The faculty
declare that it's flesh is comparatively
digestible and free from many very
obnoxious germs, especially the Koch
bacillus.
There are 900 horse butchers in
Paris, and in the last three years
$4,000 horses have been sacrificed
at the Vanguard slaughter house.
The meat is sold according to quality
at prices ranging from 6 to IA cents
pound for the primest. The intes-
tines are used for making glue, and
bones and hoofs fetch about fifty
cent per. 100 pounds. Figures are
not given for the sausage trade, and
it may be guessed that considerable
quantity of horse sausage is sold I'M
der other names.

SOME GENEROUS PRODIGALS WHO
FLUNG MONEY TO THE WINDS

for the place as it stood. A very
large sum of money was asked, as
the landlord had no wish to sell, but
the money was Immediately handed
over by the spendthrift. The new
owner, soon after he came into pos
session of the property, had all the
windows cleaned with champagne.
A famous spendthrift was the late
G. A. Baird, known as "Mr. Abing-
ton" on the turf. AS lad he inner
tied SIS, 100000, and when he at
tanned his majority he spent over
$1,500,000 on race horses.
Generosity was one of his strong
points and on one occasion he gave
$4,000 toward defraying the ex-
penses of starting dining palaces in
the East End. The jewellers found
him q very profitable customer, and
once paid $4,000 for a pearl neck
lace for a lady of his acquaintance
When luck went against him one day
he thought he might be able to
change it by throwing some Of his
property away, so he dropped scarf
pin worth about $1,000 over West
minister bridge. His journey to New
Orleans to witness the Hall-Fitzsim-
mons fight, in which he had backed
Hall for $4,000, proved fatal to
: him. He contracted chill and died
short time after in his S2nd year.
A Sporting American.
Col. Mellish, a sporting American,
thought little of drawing a check for
100000 for a horse race or two,
and at one time he possessed 3S thor
oughbreds, IT coach horses, IA hunt
ers and numerous hacks. The col
onel was very fond of show, and he
used to appear at the various courses
in a carriage drawn by four white
horses, with two outriders. He had
pugilist at his beck and call, and
he was in the habit of journeying to
every city in Europe to witness prize
fights. He would gamble at cards to
the extent of 100000 at a sitting
and once he staked that sum on a
single throw of the dice.

JEWS in JERUSALEM.
Christian Missionaries Ruthless and
Unashamed. Says Rabbi Wise.

Christian Missionaries Ruthless and
Unashamed. Says Rabbi Wise.
Rabbi Wise, of New York, recently
returned from a trip to the Holy
Land, declares that the Jews are not
only exiled from Palestine, but with
in Palestine.
THE exile of Israel should end at
the gateway of Palestine, but it does
not, the background alone being
changed. Despite che large Jewish
population in Jerusalem and the con-
siderable Jewish population through
out the rest of Palestine the really
pervasive and dominant influences
within Palestine are not Jewish, but
Christian on the one hand and Ma
hometan on the other.
There is in Jerusalem, rataher
than throughout Palestine, an unut-
terable measure of poverty and
wretchedness and misery.
"The poverty of Jerusalem is not
only followed by the inevitable Sc
quence of enfeeblement and disease
THE diseases of Jerusalem are the
diseases of poverty-but the moral
and spiritual results are almost as
dire. Thus the poor Jews of Jerus-
alem are unduly exposed to the ruth
less invasion of the wrong kind OF
missionaries.
Jews are weaned away from Jul
| daiSm hut thew are not so muCn
converted to Christian churches as
they are starved and sickened into
the acceptance of Christianity. Much
of the missionary effort with Jerusa'
lem is unashamed and ruthless, as II
inspired by the maxim, And ye shall
tear the hearts of the fathers from
the children, and ye shall tear the
hearts of the children from the faith
ers.'"

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Republi-
can Leader Mann's plan for subscrip-
lions from congressman to wedding
gift for Miss Jessie Wilson was de-
nounced in the house today by Rep
resentative Gray, democrat, of In
diana, who said the movement was
Sin exceeding bad taste"
Gray declared that few of the

offered a resolution declaring that
the members of the house extend to
Miss Wilson on approaching this step
on life's highway their heartiest con-
gratulations and well wishes as a
symbol of the solicitude of this great
nation for the happiness and welfare
of all our people"

ton. While Gray was speaking he
waved check for five dollars, which,
he said, he would give to some little
poor child who at Christmas time
peers through the windows of toy
shop"

THE FLEEING OF FELIX.
The Younger Diaz Is No Longer an
Heroic Figure in Mexico.

Felix Diaz is no longer a very i'm
portant figure in Mexican affairs. HIS
statement that he is through with
politics did not add anything to the
worlds knowledge. For even Mexl-
cans can have little love for the man
who runs away 1t would have been
wiser for him to remain in Europe
until election day had passed He is
not of heroic temperament. AS ne
stands on the deck of the battleship
Louisiana he bears no resemblance TO
Napoleon on the deck of the Beilero-
phon. He is extremely lucky IN that
he is alive. Only the moderation OF
the late president Madero saved MN
a year ago. General Huerta might
not have been so gentle with him as
Madero was. Diaz can hardly expect
to be popular again now that he
has fed to an American warship for
safety.

SEALED AIR TIGHT.
SuIzer Impeachment Court Is Work
ing in Absolute Secrecy.


Albany, N Y, Oct. 15.-Guessing
on when a verdict will be reached on
the guilt or innocence of Governor
Sulzer is about as uncertain a thing
as can be done now. Today the nigh
court of Impeachment resumed DELHI
eratiOnS in executive session on the
question of whether to admit the tes-
timony of Duncan w Peck and Henry
L. Morgenthau as proof of article ~
of the impeachme charges or to ask
the assembly for another article COW
ering the offenses alleged in the tes-
timony.
The executive sessions of the court
of Impeachment are pretty successful
from a standpoint of secrecy. All
moved from the halls and corridors
as we'll as the court rooms. Some of
the remarks of members of the court
leaked out through a rear door eff
the court room and when this became
known sound proof paper was tackled
across the door and four policemen
placed on guard.
1t is doubtful if much could be
told about the possibility of reaching
a verdict even if the sessions were
open. Some of the judges said they
were puzzled over the technical
problem with which the court now is
wrestling as are the laymen. All sorts
of arguments were current around the
capitol as to whether the necessary
76 votes in the assembly could be OBJ
tanned so near election time to adopt
the proposed new article of impeacl1-
ment. 1t was said that ambitious
candidates would not care to go on
record now. Opinions differed as to
whether in case of the passage of a
new article of impeachment it would
be necessary to give the governor 20
days in which to answer it.

some little form upon his return here
from the west three weeks ago.
There is no doubt that Morris would
have eventually won the fight had it
gone the limit. He was getting better
all the time. Smith was firing from
his own efforts. Morris was pitted
against him to show his true mettle-
if he really possesses such a thing.
Norris forced the fight at the start,
falling heavily on Smith in the
clinehes. Smith was a bit wild, miss
ing couple of good rights. He came
to in time to plant several of his hard
wallops on Morris face. He staggered
Morris with one of them. Carl rested
on Smith and would not allow the Cal
ifornian to get more than a few inches
away from him. Smith was entitled to
the first and second rounds.
Thereafter Morris was master of the
situation. Smith rained in hard body
blows, but Morris usually came back
and whipped in right hand uppercuts
and jolts to Smiths face. He nearly
closed Smiths right optic. Smith ap-
peared to tire in the third session,
to counter with rights and lefts.
Morris rushed matters and landed
several one-two punches that forced
Smith to back up.
The Gunner looked worried when he
answered the bell in the fourth stanza.
MOTIFS ripped In rights and leftS as
fast as he could unloosen them.
Smith realized right then and there
that he must knock his man out to
win. He tried to bring this about but
Morris refused to fall. Morris was
hitting his man on the kidneys and
chopping right hand blows on the back
of his neck. The crowd hooted Nor
ris paid no attention. He was in the
ring to fight.
At the close of the session Smith
complained that he had been hit low.
1t appears that Morris landed one or
two inoffensive punches. They could
not have possibly hurt Smith.
Smith came out of his corner fresh
in the fifth. The men We're only fight

Suddenly Smith doubled up and looked

make up an excuse instead of taking a
dive"

THE FEDERAL LEAGUE.
Here to Stay and VIII Open War on
MaiOrS-HaS the Money.

Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 15-The
war which it was rumored organized
baseball would make upon the Federal
league next season will be carried to
the big leaguers by the independent
circuit and will be fought to a finish,
according to J. Edward Krause, presi-

and one of the powers in the circuit.
In a statement last night Mr.. Krause
tells of plans of the new organization
to try to lure players from major
leagues.
TT will be war to the hilt with
organized baseball from this time on"
Mr.. Krause declared. There will be
no halfway measures, for the Federal
league has come to stay. We have
the name of outlaws and we might as
we'll get the game. We have the
money and money will tempt players
we want"
At a meeting of the board of direc-
tors here November 1 two major
league cities will be added to the cir
cult.
