Bigamist Pursued Through
River And Captured
Greenville, S. C., July 6. —O. G. Ogle
tree was arrested yesterday at Pied
mont by Contable Aiken charged with
bigamy. The arrest was sensational
as Ogletree in attempting to escape
jumped in the river and was followed
by the officer, quite a battle taking
place in which the constable was vic
torious.
A few months ago Ogletree mar
ried the 15-year-old daughter of J. F.
Coward of Piedmont, and after a brief
residence in the village took his wife
and went to parts unknown. Mr. Cow
ard hearing that Ogletree had another
wife in Georgia began to inquire into
the whereabouts of the man and his
daughter.
The girl returned home Saturday
and told her father that Ogletree had
deserted her, leaving her at Mobile
penniless.
Sunday morning Ogletree was seen
on the streets of the village, and Con
stable Aiken was notified. The officer
began search for Ogletree, and when
Ogletree got wind of the officer's in
tention he began to do the sprinting
stunts, jumping over garden fences,
etc. The officer saw that Ogletree
was in for a lively run and so intro
duced maneuvering taactics, with the
result that he soon had the bigamist
cornered at the banks of the river.
Ogletree seing that he was trapped
determined that he would make a fry
for his freedom, and plunged in the
river five feet deep. The officer jump
ed in after him, and had to use his club
before subduing the alleged bigamist.
It is said that Ogletree has six or
seven wifes. Nos. 1 and 2 are in Pied
mont now to appear against the man
at the preliminary trial.
Trinity College Arranges
Inter-Collegiate Debates
Trinity College, Durham, N. C., July
6. —The debate council of Trinity col
lege, which is composed of two mem
bers of the Faculty and two students
from each of the two literary societies
has arranged for two intercollegiate
debates for the coming academic year.
One of these debates will be with Van
derbilt University, Nashville, Tenn., to
be held in that city, and will the first
of a second series of three debates with
the institution, Trinity college having
won the first two from it. The pre
liminary for this debate will be held
imbmediately after the opening of col
lege in September. The other debate
is to be with the University of Tennes
see, Knoxville, Tenn., and will be held
in Durham. The time for this debate
has not yet been announced, but most
likely it will be pulled off after the
opening of the second term during this
year.
The question to be debated with Van
derbilt, proposed by that institution,
Trinity to have the affirmative side, is
Resolved, "That the present" distribu
tion of power between the federal and
state governments is not adapted to
modern conditions, and calls for re
adjustment in the direction of further
centralization."
Prof. John C. Wooten, who was elect
ed to the chair of Biblical literature by
the board of trustees at their recent
meeting, is on the park and will be
here for several days making arrange
ments for the year's work. He was ac
companied by Mrs. Wooten.

Deafness Cnnot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot

There is only one way to cure deafness,
and is by constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by infiamedd condition
of themucuous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed you
have a numbling sound, or a perfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflamation can be takken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;; nin
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condi
tion of the mucous curfaces.

EXPORT TRADE
WITH CHINA
The causes of thefrecent falling off
In the expert trade from the United
States to China are shown, in part
at least, by the official publication of
the Chinese Government entitled "Re
turns of Trade Statistics of the De
partment of Commerce and Labor. "The
statements and figures which it con
tain cover the foreign trade of China
in the calendar year 190G and com
pare the same with conditions of ear
lier years. These official statements,
coming from customs departments of
the Chinese Government, are especially
interesting in view of the fact thai
the exports from the United Stages to
China showed a marked falling off in
1906 compared with the immediately
preceding year, 1905.
The report begins with the state
ment that "calamity and a desperate
struggle against adverse circumstan
ces are the distinct features of the
year's (190G) trade. . . . Imports
have poured in during the past few
years in a vast flood, much of them
remaining upon the importers' hands,
unable to find a market." At Shang
hai, the report adds, the imports of the
two years have exceeded the normal
consumption of 80 million tatels, and
adding this to this surplus those in
warehouse and awaiting distribution
at Hongkong, Tientsin, and New
chawng, we have the sum of 120 mil
lions to possibly 150 millions of tateis
as the measure of the burden carried
. for two years by the banks and mc-r
--j chants of China in accumulated and
j unsold stocks of imported merchan
dise.
j Part of the falling off in the gener
al import trade in China during 1906
was due to overimportations of cotton
' goods in 1904 and 1905. "It is on
' record," says the report, "that by Sep
tember, 1904, the English and Amcri
: can cotton mills were filled with all
the orders they could take for China
, for twelve months ahead, and that
further orders placed early in 1905
could not be filled for over a year."
Commenting upon the effects of tli«ise
large orders placed in 1904 and 1305
the report soys that in 1906 "holders
of stocks from earlier importations
were not only burdened by storage
I charges on millions of pieces, and in
surance and interests of tens of mil
lions of taels' value, but found them
selves with their stocks laid down
at higher silver equivalents than those
v of importers of later dates." As a
consequence, the importation of cotton
goods fell from 27,724,980 pieces in
1905 to 20,247,123 in 1906.
' This decrease in cotton importations
in 1906 was not confined to imports
from the United States. The four
classes of cotton cloths which China
imports from the United States are
shirtings, sheetings, drills, and jeans.
The report shows the value of Ameri-
I can, kngiish. and Japanese shirtings,
sheetings, drills and jeans, respective
ly., imported imported in 1906 compar
ed with 1605; and this offers an oppor
tunity to determine whether the reduc
tion in imports of these articles from
.the United States was greater propor-
J tionately than that of other countries.
A careful analysis of these figures
shows that in shirtings imported the
falling off in quantity in those desig
nated as "American" shirtings war. 33
per cent and "English" shirtings 27
per cent: in American sheetings the
falling off was 2S per cent and in Eng
lish 24 per cent; in American drills
'the fall was 40 per cent, and in Eng
-1 lish 35 per cent; in jeans the falling
I off in American goods was 37 per cent
, snd in English—43 per cent. Combin
ing these four groups—shirtings, sheet
ings, drills and jeans, it appears from
' the official- figures that the reduction
in valve in the classes of goods desig
nated as "American" was 33 ner cent
and in those designated as "English"
was 35 per cent. While the other
classes of cotton goods imported are
not so designated as to indicate tjieir
origin, the figures relating to tlrcse
four principal classes whose origin is
shown seems to indicate that American
cottons suffered no greater decline pro
portionately than did those of the other
chief source of supply—the United
Kingdom—and this conclusion seems
to be strengthened by the statement in
the report itself that "but little has
been heard during the year of any ac
tive movement in connection with the
boycott in connection with American
goods except at Canton, and there it
has taken the form of public meet
ings and impassionaate speeches rath
er than of reduced purchases."
Another article in which a large re
duction in imports from the United
States has occurred is copper. The
official report from which the above
quotations are made shows that the
net imports of copper ingots fell from
21,392,970 taels value in 1905 to 211,516
in 1906, and as most of this large im
portation of copper in 1905 was drawn
from the United States, the reduction
of more than 21 million taels in this
single item explains to a considerable
degree the fact that the total imports
of merchandise into China from the
United States fell off 32 million taels
in 1906, as compared with the high re
cord year of 1905.
Even this large reduction, however,
of 32 million taels in China's imports
from the United States in 1906 wheu
compared with 1905 still leaves the
value of imports from the United
States. The total value of imports
from the United States to China in
1906 is stated by the document in
question at f4,436, 209 taels, while the
highest figure for any other year, ex
cept 1905, was 30,138,713 taels, and
the exceptionally high figure for 1905
was, as has already been explained,
due to abnormal importations of both
cotton cloths and copper, the former

to supply a supposed deficiency in
northern China where American cot
tons are especially popular, and the
latter to supply material for use in
making the new copper coins of whicn
over ten thousand millions have been
coined in China during the past two
or three years.
I While cotton cloths and copper show
; a marked foiling off in the export:}
past year, certain other articles show
a marked advance. The flour exported
! from the United States to China in
, the eleven months ending with May,
1907, was $4,974,095 in value against
$495,742 in the corresponding montn3
of the preceding year; wheat exports
to China in the eleven months of 1907 »
amounted to $1,153,000 against but slC>, • j
500 in the corresponding months of'
the preceding year, and cigarettes
showed a value in eleven months of I
$1,259,101 against $1,120,442 in the l
same months of 1906, thus indicating
that while the large copper exports
to China have ended by reason of the
cessation of coinage, and the large
exports of cotton cloths have been
greatly reduced by reason of an over-.
stocked market in that country, cer-J
taain other articles are showing a ma-'
terial increase in their movements in
that direction.
A comparison of the figures of im-j
ports of China fro mtlie United Stares |
and from other principal countries
during a considerable term of years
shows that the gain of the United
States has been more rapid than that
of other principal countries, even
when the figures of the unfavorable
year 1906 are used as the basis of j
comparison. The official figures of
China's trade returns show that im
ports from the United States increas
ed from 11,929,853 taels in 1896 to 44,-
436,209 in 190G; those from the Unit
ed Kingdom from 44.571.357 in 1896 to'
78,738,292 in'l9o6; those from Japan!
from 17,390,123 in 1896 to 61,052,356 j
in 1906; those from Hongkong from I
91.356,530 in 1596 to 144,936,957 in
1906. The actual gain in the ten years
in question was in imports from the
United States , 32,506,356 haikwau
taels; from the United Kingdom, 34.-
166.309; from Japan, 43,662,233; from
Hongkong, 53,550,427; and from all
other countries, 52,250,934. The per
cent of gain in 1906 over 1596 was. in
the case of the United States, 272;
United Kingdom, 77; Japan, 251;
Hongkong, 59; and all other countries,
114, while the increase in all importa
tions was 102.4 per cent.
The importations into China from
Hongkong, it will be seen from the
above figures, are larger than those
from any single country, although
Hongkong is merely receiving port for
the merchandise imported from it, as
it is not a producing colony or city.
Of this large amount of merchandise
imported into China fro mHongkong,
about two-thirds originates in the
Orient, including in this term India,
Australia, the Dutch East Indies, the
Malayan Peninsula. Siam, French Indo
china, the Philippine Islands, Formosa,
and Japan, while the other one-third

Senator Morgan was to the south
what Senator Hoar was to the north.
Both, in their last debates, reflected
the classic learning, the familiarity
with constitutional fundamentals, and
the intense self-conscious Americanism
characteristic of the statesmanship of
their early days—"how far into the arc
tic regions of our lives the guly stream
of our youth may flow." Both died
poor because they caro more for the
affection and respect of their commun
ities than for money, and were more in
tent on intangible traditions than on
personal advancement. Hoar died be
fore the domestic, economic problems
of the newer statesmanship arose, and
Morgan, expert in international law,
and absorbed in the same principles
that Webster and Calhoun contested,
was too old to attune himself to the
new issues. Of Hoar's type, no one
from the north remains in the senate,
and the aged Pettus is the only sur
vivor of the early southern school.

How to repare a Green Corn Pud
ding.
Robert Henry Coffin, known to those
of the last generation by his pen
liamo of "Barry Gray," was an enthus
iast upon the subject of cookery. About
20 years ago his signature was regard
ed *as authoritative upon the culinary
question.
Among the formulas that have been
associated with Barry Gray's name, the
one which was admittedly his favorite
was a recipe for au old-fashioned green
corn pudding, a dish for which Nan
tucket has been famous since the early
days of the colonies. Here is the recipe
as given by the July Delineator:
"Take four dozen full ears of sweet ;
green corn, score the kernels and cut,
them from the cob. Scrape off what
remains on the cob with a knife. Pound
the corn cut on; in a mortar. Add a
pint and a half or one quart of milk,
according to the youngncss and juici
ness of the corn. Ad four eggs well
beaten, a half teacupful of flour and
a teacupful of butter, a tablcspoon
ful of sugar and saltquantitum suffieit.
Bake in a well greased earthen dish in
a hot oven two hours. Place it on the
table browned and smoking hot, and
eat it with plenty of fresh butter.
