DANCES A LIVELY JIG ON HIS

wards, living on a farm near Viola,
celebrated his 101st birthday by
dancing a jig on the floor of one of
the leading stores here.
Never worry about anything and
you will live to be 100 years DID,"
was his advice to the gaping villagers
who viewed the performance of the
centenarian, who is hale and hearty.
Give Tobacco Cold Shoulder.
Besides abstinence from worry,
"Uncle Tommy" as he is better
known, advises giving tobacco and
liquor the cold shoulder. He says he
has never made their acquaintance.
Edwards is cousin of General
Upton of Civil War fame and took
part in the battle of Gettysburg and
the seven days conflict before Rich
mond, as well as in several other his
torical engagements. He retains in
his mind vivid details of all the bat
ties of his experiences.
"Uncle Tommy" lives on a farm
with a brother, Joe Edwards. The
parents of the old men attained the
age of go years, but "Uncle Tommy
believes he has shattered the ances.
trail record for longevity.

ago for $5.75 per bag of 100 pounds,
now are selling for $3.50. "Key-
stones" have advanced from $3.50 to
$3.50.
Market reports Indicate that there
is not enough even at these prices,
or advancing prices, to last until the
next crop. So COOLERS are expected
to continue to soar.
Seed peanuts, both Spanish and
North Carolina varieties are reported
exhausted and not to be had at any
price. The Virginia varieties are
scarce and out Of sight. They are not
quoted in Savannah on account of
the prohibitive prices.
Heavy Demand.
According to well-posted men, the
present conditions are attributable to
the increased demand for peanuts for
manufacturing purposes. AS the cot
ton production is decreased, and cot
ton seed becomes proportionately
scarcer for oil manufacture, peanuts
are being used as source of oil pro.
duction. This is one of the chief de.
mands now made upon the crop.
Peanuts are being used in many
other lines on an increasing scale
now. For instance, from recent expe.
riments their value as a substitute
for wheat flour has been demonstrat.
ed. They are being used extensively
also for peanut butter, and in numer.
Gus other ways which heretofore were
| unknown.

BOAT LOAD OF WEySKEY
CAPTURED NEAR GEORGETOWN
Booze-Ladened Vessel En- Route
From Apalachicola to Columbus.
One Arrested, Two Escaped.

Quitman county was the scene of
an exciting capture of a boatload of
whisky on the Chattahoochee river a
few mornings ago.
Police of Eufaula, just across the
river in Alabama, received tip from
Fort Gaines, Ga, that a gasoline
launch loaded with whisky was on
the way up the river, and soldiers on
guard at the bridge were deputized
to stop it and make arrests when it
arrived.
When the boat was stopped at the
order of the soldiers it drifted to the
Georgia side, where two of its oc-
cupants escaped. The third was ar
rested. He gave the name of Smith
and said he was the engineer of the
boat. He was taken to Georgetown,
the county seat of Quitman, and plac-
ed in Jail. The boat contained $40Q
worth of whisky. 1t is said to be a
Columbus boat and was en- route
from Apalachicola, Fla.

ROCKEFELLER BROTHERS,
LONG FEUD Is NOW OVER
Death of Younger Brother Ends Mys.
FERROUS Quarrel of Rich Men That
Had Lasted for IL Years.

The death of Frank Rockefeller
younger brother of John D., ends the
17-year-old feud between the two
and the latter was one of the attend
ants at his brothers funeral in Cleve-
land Neither friends, associates, mu-
tual business interests nor family ties
succeeded in breaking down the wall
between the two men. For II years
they neither spoke, wrote nor as
much as referred to each other. 1t
was to each as though the other
never existed. The quarrel was said
to have been over business matters,
after they had been chums in boy
hood and closely associated in bust
ness affairs for the greater part of
their lives.
Both men spent part of each year
in Cleveland, John D., going from
New York city and Frank from his
ranch in Kansas. They lived not far
apart, but they studiousIy avoided
seeing or hearing of each other. Even
when he knew he was going to die,
Frank prohibited those about him in
forming his brother, John D. Not
long ago William Rockefeller made
an unsuccessful attempt to reconcile
his two brothers. Frank, though he
made large fortune in stocks, pre-
ferred to be known as a successful
ranchman.

BOIL THEIR DEAD
TO GET The oils
REVOLVING STORY PUBLISHED
IN LONDON TIMES OF PRAC-
TICE ON WESTERN FRONT.

LONDON.-The Times prints ex-
tracts from La -Belgigue of Leyden,
Holland, telling of the revolving
treatment to which the Germans sub
NIT their dead. The Times says this
version, emitting some of the most
repulsive details, is as follows:
eve have known for long time
that the Germans stripped their dead
behind the firing lines, fastened them
into bundles of three or four with
iron wire and then dispatched these
bundles to the rear.
"Until recently trains laden with
dead were sent to Seraing, near
Liege, and point north of Brussels,
where were located refuse consum-
ers. Much surprise was caused by the
fact that of late this traffic proceed
ed in the direction of Gerolstein, and
it was noted that on each wagon was
written ID. A. V. c. German science
is responsible for the ghoulish idea
of the formation of a German offal
utilization company, or Deutsche At
fall Verwertungs Gosellschaft, divi-
dend-earni1ig company with capital
of 100000 pounds, the chief factory
of which has been constructed 1000
yards from railway connecting Saint
Wiz. near the Belgian frontier, with
Gerolstein in lonely, little-frequent-
ed Eifel district southwest of Cob
LEM. This factory deals specially
with the dead from the west front.
If results are as good as the company
hopes, another will be established to
deal with corpses on the east front.
Trains Full of Bare Bodies.
Trains arrive full of bare bodies.
which are unloaded by workers who
live at the works. The men wear oil
skin overalls and masks with mica
eye-pieces. They are equipped with
long hooked poles and push bundles
of bodies into an endless chain, which
picks them up with big hooks attach
ed at intervals of two feet. The
bodies are transported on this endless
chain into long, narrow compart-
ments where they pass through a
bath which disinfects them They
then go through drying chamber
and are finally automatically carried
into digester or great cauldron, in
which they are dropped by an appa-
ratus which detaches them from the
chain.
SIN the digester they remain from
six to eight hours, and are treated by
steam, which breaks them up while
they are slowly stirred by machinery
From this treatment result several
products. Fats are broken up into
stearine, a form of tallow. and oils,
which require to be redistilled be-
fore they can be used. The process
of distillation is carried out by boil
ing oil with carbonate of soda.
Used by Soapmakers.
Some part of the by-products re-
sulting from this is used by German
soapmakers. The oil distillery and
refinery lie in the southeastern cor
ner of the works. The refined oil is
sent out in casks like those used for
petroleum and is of yellowish
brown color"
The Times adds that it will be re-
membered that one of the American
consuls on leaving Germany in Feb
ruary stated in Switzerland that the
Germans are distilling glycerine for
nitro-gl ycerine from bodies of their
dead and thus obtaining some part
of their explosives.
