he refers TO himself as being unable
TO navigate. and stricken down. p
Speaking of General Scott, he SAYS:
we have i'm the United States a
man whose deeds for years past, and
especially within the past two years
have been heroic unselfish ana saved
the United states many millions of
dollars and thousands of lives. Il
was only a short time ago that the In
dian tribes around the Beautiful
mountain in New Mexico revolted
some thousands strong, taking up po-
sitions among inaccessible mountain
sTongholds. they defied all corners
scott Subdues Indians.
General Scott went among them
alone and after short parley re-
turned with all Indians perfectly pa
Gifted. Recently the Utes revolted
and after all efforts by sheriffs

number Of fatalities Of both Indians
and whites General scott was sent
from Washington, Alone he brought
the Indians back under arrest When
International complications were at a
breaking point with Mexico, at Naco,
General Scott went there and settled
the matter, avoiding war and its
evil consequences.
More recently General Scott ac-
complished still more patriotic work
at FL Paso, when he induced villa,
through his personal persuasion, to
withdraw his ruinous edict against
the mining and commercial American
operators IN Mexico, thus further for
Wardmg the acceptance of the Amer

that Will signed only with the initials

Mrs. Pitchers mother. When Mr. Pill
cher fell i'll and his condition became
serious his betrothed came from her
home in Wheeling. w. Va, and on De-
cember 10, 1912, they were married I'm
his sick chamber. Later his sister, Mrs
Relle II. Woods, came to help nurse
him. one day he asked for pen and
paper to write his will. They remon-
strated With him, but he took pen and
paper from his wife. who was writing
a letter TO her mother. agA thus brief
~ wrote his last testament: Il give 10
my wife, Alice McCabe Pitcher. all OF
my property. real and personal r. NJ. p

have left everything have to my WIFE
Mrs. Woods called his attention to the
fact that he had signed only his initials
The shorter the better" he replied, and
he assured them that the will would
stand In any court, and that mark
would almost be sufficient.
The Will was later dropped In some
water, but was recovered and dried
showing only blur from the water
| Afterwards IL was lost On December
! 20. 1912. Mr.. Pitcher wrote Il formal
Photograph Will, but neglected to s!gn
II This was offered to probate by
Judge Daniel Grinnan, but was with
drawn when he discovered that 1t was
unsigned. After long search the
one sentence will vaa found In som,

suit OF Rev j. NJ. Pitcher to obtain a

PULLMAN COMPANY
 AGREES TO CHANGE
Introduction of Added Sanitary Pre- cautions Under State Board
 of Health

Montgomery, July 51--tSpecial) Representatives of the Pullman con- pany have agreed to the passage of a bill by the Alabama legislature giving the state board of health authority to order various sanitary improvements on cars operating in this. state. The agree ment has to do specifically with regu- lations pertaining to the use of dsn- factions in Pullman cars
 The attention of the Pullman com pany was called to the matter as re- suit Of the introduction of a bill by Senator Kline of Calhoun requiring the company to use disinfectants and to spray daily the curtains and bed linens used in he sleeping cars.
 Several representatives of the Pull, man company came to Montgomery and. talked to Senator Kline in references to the bill. They frankly admitted that certain more stringent sanitary regula- tions were needed, but asked that tlIe bill be so amended as to place such regulations in the hands of the state board of health, inasmuch as sanitary methods were constantly being ini- proved.
 The Calhoun senator promptly agreed to the amendment, and he will incorpor. ate that provision in his bill as soon as it is called up for passage.
