Of my privileges to have known and

old men Of our State who occupy the
middle ground that lies between
wealth and medium poverty could
have some Of the flowers of appre-
citation given them in life it would
be infinitely better than placing them
on their graves and in eulogy after
they have passed away
I am writing not only to thank you
tor your article about Mr.. Jesse
Brake but to call your attention to an
other Brake, a brother Of Jesse Brake,
than whom to my mind there lives
Mr.. Joseph Brake lives only few
| miles from his brother. He, too, is
| a Confederate veteran who worthily
wears the cross Of honor, has raised
family of boys and girls who are
a credit to him and his good wife;
and. with their cousins. form the
nucleus Of thrift and prosperity that
is present everywhere in the Dixie
neighborhood.
At some convenient time send one
of your clever writer's to that neigh
bodhood and have him go to see Mr.
Joseph Brake, and he will find ma
terial for a good letter and food fol

Brake and his family have done and
are doing for themselves and thei,

Washington, Oct. 9.-A warning is
sounded owners of cattle in the South
by the Department Of Agriculture. 1t
is estimated by the department that
the cattle tick is sucking a sum Of
approximately $50, 600, 600 per year
from the South through consuming
the blood of the animals.
The tick is regarded as a menace
as much to be avoided as the hoof
and mouth disease. which has created
such havoc and caused the slaughter
of so much cattle in twenty States
outside the South. Although the
South has escaped that dread disease
by the promptness of the government
in slaughtering the cattle infected, and

Swedish Press Scores
Attack by Germans and
Calls It objectionable

STOCKHOLM, via London, August 81.
The Swedish press unanimously de-
nounces the German attack on the
British submarine E-13 in Danish
waters, characterizing it as an un-
pardonable infringement of Danish
neutrality. The Dagens Nyheter, which
commonly reflects the attitude of the
Swedish foreign office, says that the
Germans attacking the E13 must have
been fully aware that the submarine
was in Danish waters.
The most criminal feature of the af-
fair" adds the Dagens Nyheter, lis
the German crafts action in firing
upon British sailors who had given
themselves up to a neutral power and
naturally assumed that they were safe
from enemy attacks"

1t is nevertheless said that should
Germany offer an explanation. assert
ing that there were qualifying circum-
stances, such as an attempt by the
Arabic to escape or to ram the sub

For a while officials thought that il

might have caused the German sub

show that there were no conveys on
