GRESS.

I'm my announcement for Con-
gress for the unexpired term
of the late Hon. S. A. Wither-
spoon, am not mindful Of the
fact that for more than a gener-
alton. this district has had a
member who took front rank in
the councils of the party both in
the State and the nation. No
more able men ever represented
constituency than John Sharp
Williams, A. M. Byrd and S. A.
Witherspoon and if elected, l
shall ever keep before me the
enviabla record of these disting
uished men and my entire ambi-
ton will be to uphold the stan
dard set by them.

Mining Under the Ocean.

Mining for tin under the sea is com.
mon enough in Cornwall, where the
veins are followed for Il cOnsideIaL.e
distance under the waters Of the stern
coast, but Cornwall is fairly euuallel
by Chile. which. instead Of producing
tin. yields large quantities Of coal. On
Coronet bay are located some of the
best coal mines in Chile. and as the
seams extend beneath the bay and
give evidence of continuing far OH,

carried on ut a good depth beneath

the overhead rock that the under

THE MENACE or
PESTILENCE

DISEASE usually follows in
the wake of war and accounts
for tenfold more deaths than
the battletields. If the armies
themselves, owing to medical
skill and sanitary discipline,
manage to escape much dis
ease, the populations often do
not.
Therefore, the dispatches
that tell how Serbia is being
wasted by typhus occasion no
surprise. Possessed of but a
primitive medical service, and
short of about everything but
ammunition, the Serbians were
certain to encounter disease.

drove the Bulgars, twice have

HANDY With an Ak.

One important feature in connection
with the conducting of mining opera
tons in Siberia is the aptitude of the
Russian workman for the ak. Wood Is
SO plentiful in the country that min
ing timbers may be figured on at a
low rate. The current anecdote that a
Russian workman will for Il twenty
kopeck piece lay his left hand, with
fingers spread. on a board and with
full strength make an ak cut between
each finger cannot be- vouched for. but

many societies is bound to have
an influence for good among
our boys. And for that matter
among the girls too, says the

of the boys and see that they
are started along the right
path, and the chances are that
they will go right after they
attain manhood. If you see a
boy who is going wrong lend
him a helping hand. Give
him some good fatherly advice
and if necessary take him by
the hand and lead him along
the right road and give him a
good start in the path of right
1t is our boys who are going tC

if he is kept going right unit
