The President intends to make a careful study of the report of the commission and in tends to use the material contained therein as the basis of a number of speeches he expects to deliver dur ing his trip through the West and South. President Taft fully recognizes that not only is the effectiveness of ex isting laws crippled, but the admin istration is greatly handicapoed in their enforcement by the lack of a which the different departments would have a clear field for work.

The symptoms of 'this; "now much dreaded malady may, be referred to the nervous system, alimentary canal and the skin. It always begins In the spring with weakness, lassitude, gid diness, headache, articular pains, se vere burning sensation In .the small part of the back, radiating to the limbs, especially the hands and feet. There may be a slight jaundice ac companying this stage of the disease. The skin is the last region to be affected, and is limited to the parts exposed to the sun, when It begins to turn, a deep red color. This redness sometimes -develops in twenty-four hours and usually lasts for about two weeks. Sometimes the skin when attacked y the disease may have in dolent ulcers to come upon it, which, however, are always perceded by a violent itching and burning. After the latter acute conditions subside tht outer layer of the skin scales ana may be rubbed off as if the integu ment had been covered .with bran. The skin thus removed of its outer coat ing appears thick and leathery. This condition may be repeated every Hum mer for four or five years, when tht skin becomes dry, wrinkled and with ers, not unlike that seen in old age. Patients affected with pellagra us ually suffer most during the hot months of summer, and appear quite well in winter, but in the spring; the disease becomes manifest, growing more aggravated each time. Patients die from this dread malady by developing meningitis, insanity, in fact, any form of mania may accom pany the condition. Patients may sink into utter imbecility, especially the young who may b epellagrous. Women suffer most and children least frequently among - the poor, when the disease is not severe.

Cobb, of Lumber Bridge, Robe son county, could have been pur chased for two thousand dollars. This year Kinder his, expert manage ment he has already grown crops worth $23,213 on that farm and on a part of the land he has a second crop of cotton which gives promise of making a bale to the acre. He has also grown enough wheat, oats ana corn to run the whole farm. Mr. Cobb believes there is money in farm ing in fact, he knows it and he is of the opinion that the supreme neea of North Carolina today is expert ag ricultural education and that the schools should more and more train the boys and girls for living on the farm. He wishes to see the , chlei emphasis placed upon agricultural, rather than mechanical education. YJ(hat Mr. Cobb has done eveiy grad uate "from the A. & M. College and every other young man who will mix that he could be gotten out' easily. Some time agi it was published in the Herald that there would be no effort to get Barbee out until the merits of the Shepard case were ascertained, the Durham negro who was in Ohio when caught having much to do with the final settlement of this case. The statement of Judge WJnston covers the attitude of Barbee well. It may not embrace the amount of amus ing gossip coming from Marbee head quarters, some of it to the effect that the prisoner thinks all the lawyers have it in for him and that he is really being persecuted. He has had an idea that he could have been tried long ago had the counsel represeD ing him not deferred to the solicitor. The attorneys were with him when Mayor Graham released him from custody in December. They made an excellent defense for him there and his "firing" his lawyers, which really he has done, is much the most myste rious thing that has happened since the night of the murder of the engi neer. Judge Winston's statement, signed by him and Mr. Bryant, was read in open court and filed with the clerk. Barbee looks well despite his long confinement. He looks neat and clean, has his face smooth, but for a mustache. This latest move of his is not understood at all. He has the people guessing. He has not lost his nerve any time, and since he an nounced imiaiediately atfer hi?, arrest, "false alarm that eye of his has had its usual semi-smile. The counsel will probably be named at thes morning sitting of the court. Being, a capital offense, Barbee will, of "course, be compelled to have law yers. In dropping the two that had his case, it is recalled that he is mvnua the junior member, whose magnificent defense acquitted him of a similar charge more than ten years bodies have been recovered to date, and it is believed that the statement that the total death list will amount to 2,000 is well within the figures. As the reports come in it is seen that the situation at Monterey is mori serious than it was at first supposed The city lacks food and water. Tht Federal government has sent an ad ditional $10,000 to be expended for re lief. Monterey reports resumption of th street car service in the higher par of the city and the Ughing systen again is in operation, but telegrap. communication is still damaged. Th pubic is responding liberally wth sub sorptions. The expressions of sympathy fror the American government are deepl. appreciated here. Another aeronaut has stayed up for two hours and thirty-seven minutes. They all seem to have a penchant for thirty-seven minutes."
