PROTEST AGAINST PROFANITY

Ten thousand male members of
Catholic churches, at Dayton, Ohio,
marched in procession. October II, a
silent protest against the use of pro-
fame language. The demonstration
was called the Holy Name parade.
II was an event worth putting on
record for the readers of every Sun
day paper in the United States.
Delegations representing the Holy
Name societies of many surrounding
towns and cities, marching four
abreast, says a press dispatch, par
ticipated In the event, and In the

BIRDS FLY FIFTEEN
THOUSAND MILES

Bird migration has always been
and Ia yet a thing of much mystery.
Let the man who has ever felt the
thrill of this mystery take his Atlas
and turn to map of the Western
Hemisphere Let him locate the
Arctic Islands north of North Amerl-
ca, say rs degrees north latitude
and with his pencil draw from there
a line down along the coast of Lab
rador, across to Newfoundland and
down to Nova Scotia. then across the
Atlantic to the Lesser Antilles in the
! West Indies, from there to Brazil
and across Argentina. and finally
: halt his pencil in Patagonia.
He will have traced then what IS
said to be the southwark migration
of the American golden plover. But
let him continue the course across
i the Pacific. northward up the coast,
then across Central America and UP
the Mississippi Valley; through Cen
trail Canada and back to the northern
islands. He will then have mapped
what naturalists have given as the
yearly itinerary of this wonderful
bird-.a journey of some fifteen
thousand miles.
Very many of the little pilgrims
that start for the South never reach

route is the encountering of the daz'

COMPULSORY GARDENS
TO FIGHT PELLEGRA

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 2-The alarm
ing spread of pellagra in this state
has led to the suggestion that COM
pulsory operation of private veGc-
table gardens is the most logical
method of stemming the tide. The
greatest spread of the disease was
among the negroeS of the delta.
where their rations consist chiefly
of cornbread, and fat meat.
Ut is the lack of fresh vegetables
in the diet that throws the human
system wide open to the disease, say
the experts. The proposal OF com
pulsory vegetable raising is advocat-
ed by many prominent physicians
and leading men throughout the
state. 1t may lead to new system
of farming on the big plantations,
requiring every tenant to cultivate
oneocre of garden for his own family.
An investigation by the leading
medical society of the state reveals
the fact that there are 1000 cases
in this state, that 1892 deaths from
the disease were reported last year,
and the spread of pellagara was in
creasing 1T a terrific rate. Last year
/ 256 whites were included in the
total deaths, and in the year prev
ious there were 209 deaths in whites
in this state from pellagra, out of a
total of 1876.
Just what to do with the cases
now existing is one of the greatest
problems that faces the people OF
Mississippi. Hospitals would cost
millions, and therefore the problem
has been put up to each county tt
care for its own cases. Accommoda
tlons are furnished on the count.
farms for many of the afflicted. Th'
charge of diet, with the addition o
vegetables, begins at once to maxi
new men out of them.
/ That diet is the cause of the dis
ease, and therefore its cure, is tn
attitude taken by he Mississippi
medical men, The rapid spread OF tn
loathsome disease is now recognize
by the state and local authorities
and it is expected that radical ac
tion will be taken to compel familie
to protest themselves by eatlh
proper food.

Washington, Nov. Eight States,
New York, Massachusetts, Maryland,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Kentucky,
Ohio and Mississippi are holding cleo
tions today. In four of these States,
Massachusetts, Maryland, Kentucky
and Mississippi, governors are being
chosen. In six States, New York,
Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jer
sey, Kentucky and Mississippi, the
state legislatures in whole or in part
will be elected. I'm five States, New
York, Massachusetts, Maryland,
Pennsylvania and Ohio, important
constitutional issues are to be decid-
e. The constitutional questions in
clude such fundamental matters as
woman suffrage, municipal home
rule, prohibition, State income taxes,
referendum plans and some lesser re-
forms.
The woman suffrage question
comes up for decision In New YORK,
PENNSYLVANIA, Massachusetts,, These
States furnish, in point of popula-
tion. the greatest test the. suffrage
issue has ever had in the United
States. New Jersey, the first State
in the East to vote on the issue, de
feated it on October 10. by a lar2t
majority, despite the fact that Presi.

FLA. CITRUS FIUIT IS MOVING
VERY SLOWLY

Jacksonville, Nov. CITRUS fruit
is moving slowly. Much of it will
not stand the maturity test required
by law and shippers do not intend
TO have trouble with the federal gov
eminent
last week there were "a cars of
grapefruit and four cars of oranges
moved, compared to 346 cars of
grapefruit and 81 cars of oranges
during the corresponding week a
year ago. Last season the total citrus
fruit movemen to October "a was 997
cars of grapefruit and 101 cars of
oranges.
There seems to be a General opin-
ion among growers and shippers
throughout the state that the move
h.ent will not be heavy until No
vember 10. This is particularly true
! in the citrus sections of the state
where they have had continued
warm weather, which has caused the
fruit to continue to grow but not
sweeten sufficiently to pass the ma
turity test required by law. In man!
instances the shipper is not in po'
sition to test his own fruit and 81
as to make sure, is just simply wait
ing as they do not intend to picl
the fruit and run the chance of hav
ing it confiscated
Up to and including October II
there were ten cars of grapefruit
tested and nineof these cars were re
jected as immature. 1t Is understood
that samples have been taken of ;
great many cars that have left tn
state and if they do not stand tn
test they will be condemned.
There is some agitation through
cut the state regarding the new law
and some of the local papers ar
making adverse criticism, claimin
that the test required is too severe
particularly for grapefruit. Th
law, however, will be watched wit
interest by all connected with tn
deal and it is believed that even
ually it will bea good thing both ft
the growers and the consumers.
