OBSERVATIONS OF
L
A London author, Warren Bell, complains that too much preference
is shown to writings of eueb authors as'Dickens.Thackery, Lamb and their
Dead Authors Fay Best contemIora"es to ne exclusion of present day
writers. He says that hundreds ot present day
writers are rapping a, editorial doors asking for admittance, while the
publishers cling to the old authors. "Dickens and Thackery wrote su
premely for their own generation," e ys Mr. Bell, "but do not present day
authors cater with equal-skill lor theirs?" Mr. Bell says that he has been
spurred to make such remarks by hat a publisher recently said to him.
Said the publisher, "Its the dead 'um that pay us." And whether it suits
Mr. Warren and other present day authors or not, as long as the "dead 'uns
pay best" publishers will continue to put their works on the market. The
inference is that merit wins aDd the old writers outclass those of the
present day. It is a hard task for at y new author to undertake to sup
plant the works of such men as Dickens and Thackery, and those who
put their literary wares before the public should not feel hurt if their
writings do not fell as well as those of the writers whoso fume is already
established.

Mk. Rockefeller is not the only man against whom is the charge of
handling "tainted money." Hon. Hoke Smith, one of the candidates for
w m . . i w Governor of Georgia, has recently made a state-
More Tainted Money.
ment which has caused some of his fellow citi
zens to speak openly against him. Upon being questioned from the
etump he admitted that he was part owner of the Piedmont hotel bar, that
be receives one-third of the proceeds from the sale of liquor in that bar.
He said also that he keeps a separate account of tho money he recieves
from sales in that bar, and that not one cent of it is used by him or his
family. He said that he gives all this bar money to charity. Some people
of Georgia are making vigorous protests against Mr. Smith's election to
the high position of Governor with this policy and plan effusing his "taint
ed money." One correspondent to the Atlanta Constitution says :
The inference is that the money coming from his bar room is so dirty,
go t!!c, co lull sorrc and pain given to the mothers and wives of this
state, and so freighted with blasted hopes of young men ruined by the
liquor sold at his bar room, that neither Mr. Smith nor his family will use
a cent of it. And yet God save the mark ! he says that he take3 this
money, too vile and dirty to be used by himself, and gives it to charity.
Has it come to this that a man car own an interest in a bar room ; sell
his liquor over the counter, to the ruin of the young men of the state,
crushing the hearts and hopes of wives and mothers, and then get absolu
tion by saying : "Yes, I am having liquor retailed in my bar, but I give
all the vile dollars I get from it to charity?" I am ashamed of such a spec
tacle. The liquor selling element of the state ought to be as ready to re
pudiate such a moral monstrosity s the temperance people of the state.
But let's go a little further. Mr. Smith says that he has a separate ac
count kept of his bar room sales, and that he gives every cent of this
money to charity. Mr. Smith would have the public believe that this
money is so tainted that he won't even mix it with his other money, but
keeps it separate and apart, and give3 it to charity. Admitting that Hoke
Smith has told the truth about this bar room money, then I want infor
mation on this point : When Mr. Smith takes the whiskey money which
he has kept separate from his other money to tne preacher, to be used for"
chafity, does he say to the preacher : "This is money I obtained from my
bar room ; this Is money that was given to me for liquor sold by the drink?"
Does he say : "I don't know tow many young men have been debauched
and made drunkards by it. but I do know that it Is too badly tainted with
human misery and human suffering for me or my family to use it ; there
fore, 1 want you to take it and use it for charity?" Does he tell the preach
er, or the person to whom he gives this whisky money, what it is and his
reasons for not letting his family use it.. I don't know whether he does or
not, but if he does not, then it looks io . me like he puts himself in the
shameful attitude of running a bar for money, and then palming the tainted
money off on tbe church of Christ, without having the courage to use it
himself or to tell those to whom he gives it how he got it and why it is that
he is giving it away. Mr. Smith may think that that kind of morality will
pass, muster with decent, thoughtful, Intelligent people, but I don't
believe it.

PASSING EVENTS.
A WARNING TO MOTHERS.
Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. Asa rule it is only
necessary to give the child a dose of
castor oil to correct any disorder of the
bowels- Do not use any substitute,
but give the old-fashioned castor oil,
and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil
nauseates and has a tendency to gripe.
If this does not check the bowels give
Chamberlain's , Colic, Cholera - and
Diarrhoea Remedy and then a dose of
castor oil, and the disease may be
checked in its incipiency and all dan
ger avoided. The castor oil and this
remedy should be procured at once
and Kept ready for instant use as soon
as the first indication of any bowel
trouble appears. This is the most suc
cessful treatment known and may be
relied; upon with implicit confidence
even in cases of cholera infantum. For
sale by all druggists.
IN PHOTOGRAPHS OF FISH.
Actions of the Finned Creatures Cor
- rectly Portrayed in Camera
Productions.
The most remarkable set of fish pho
tographs ever published photographs
that ( were taken in an absolutely
unique way under picturesque circum
stances appear In Country Life in
America. The whole episode will go
down as the most sensational in pho
tographic history. For. 14 years Julian.
A. Dimock has been watching the great
leaping tarpon of Florida in its mar
velous jumps into the air at the prick
of the angler's hook. He told his ex
periences to the editor s of Country Life
in America, who told him to photo
graph the leaps if it took six months.
It did. The first months were total
failures, but at the end of the half year
he came north to Sixteenth street, with
27 perfect photographs that show ev
ery stage of the aerial leaps of the 200
pound seven-foot fish.
To achieve this result Mr. Dimock
put up at a little old hotel, in Collier's
Bay, Florida, set his camera shutter at
a speed of one five-hundredths of a sec
ond, and then, with his silent guide,
lived on the water in the deep narrow
pass where Collier's bay makes for
the deep sea. He showed his patriot
ism by floating in the water three flags
that ran the color gamus of red, white
and blue. The red flag at the end of
25 feet of slim tarpon line; the blue
flag registered 50 played out feet, and
the white flag terminated 100 feet.
When the tarpon was struck and the
three-inch hook had settled well into
the gristle of his mouth the guide kept
him as near the boat as he dared with
the tiny line (only one thirty-second
of an inch thick). Then the fish would
begin to leap out of the water eight
feet for the first leap and 20 or 30
leaps and the red flag would dip In
and out.
Mr. Dimock would rapidly fix hie fo
cus for a distance less than 25 feet,
and snap the fish in the air, with his
shutter tuned to a speed of a half
thousandth of a second. Often enough
the fish Would splash water into hi3
eyes while he was pressing his button;
time and again the fish snapped the
line before the camera could be aimed,
and for weeks the Florida weather
misbehaved. But finally the giant tar
pon leaped only 18 feet away, actinic
air prevailed and the firsh recorded
themselves on the sensitive plate in a
way that will be valuable to lovers of
sport and nature students for a cen
tury to come. To the eye of the fisher
the gill action is not visible, but the
camera proves.their rise ard fall.
It was only the other day that a
prominent writer (who had observed
tarpon first-hand) said In a newspaper
article: "They leap backward always
backward." He will now know better,
for Mr. Dimock's pictures prove that
they leap forward, edgewise, "any old
side at all."
GYPSY TRICK WITH HORSE.
Cunningly Transform Wind-Broken
Plug Into Shining Steed and
Gell Him.
It is to be presumed that a day or so
before there could have been found in
a gypsy camp not far away a broken
winded and weather-beaten plug of a
horse, worth, perhaps. 6 in open
market. Then began such a groom
ing, clipping, polishing and doctoring
as must rank among the fine arts, re
lates Outing. Mane and tall were
miracles of braiding, intertwined with
fresh straw and fetch ingly beribboned.
Into the crowded village was led a
mettlesome and shining steed, care
fully escorted, too valuable., forsooth,
to be put up for sale. After the horse
was tied near a popular public house,
three or four rustics strolled up to the
owner of the beast, who looked to be
all "hayseed." They looked the "bar
gain" over, shook their heads in dis
appointment that no dickering was
possible, and drifted into the tap room
of the "pub." Presently other farm
ers pricked up their ears and wanted
to see the horse. And so it went on
until the cleverly disguised gypsies
who made up the original bunch of
"rustics" had created a strong under
current of interest setting toward the
transformed "plug."
The first show of cash came from
among the masquerading farmers,
whos3 identity lurked only in the mid
night eye and shifty glance with the
true gypsy slant in the corner of it
And after some hours of palaver, over
many mugs of beer, it was one of
these "made-up" Hodges who closed
the deal, bought the horse and paid
for it in ostentatious sovereigns. The
genuine farmer, for whom the bait
was cast, could not withstand this
evidence of a "rare bargain," and was
ths more eager now that it had slipped
out of his grasp. Therefore it was not
long before the "fake" buyer was of
fered a bonus of a pound, to let go
cf his purchase, held out for two, and
got it, and vanished as if on wings.
Serpent Shrines in India.
Serpent worship still survives in In
dia and a good snake shrine is said to
be as much an attraction in a house
on the Malabar coast as a garden is
fn the case of a country home in the
United States. Serpents are, however,
most unobtrusive and unless one walks
noiseless and barefooted in the dark,
as Hindoos do, snake bite is an im
probable contingency.
Swans in England.
There are more than 1,000 swans at
Abbotsbury, in England, living a per
fectly natural life, and none of them
pinioned. The visitor sees the largest
birds in England in full flight; for the
Abbotsbury birds use their wings for
all Journeys to and from the sea, or down
the Jong lagoon called the Fleet, that
divides the shore from the beach.

BEGINNING OF TIME TABLES ;
Railway Guides of the Early Days
Are Now Viewed as Curi
ous Belies.
It is just 65 years ago since George
Bradshaw, the Quaker engraver and
mapmaker, of Manchester, England, was
first inspired to publish his "Time
Table." It was a tiny pamphlet bound
in green cloth, and was nothing more
than a collection of the monthly time
tables issued by the seven railway com
panies then in existence in England.
Of this volume there are now only four
copies in existence, but they are worth
their weight in gold, says a railway ex
change. . "
So encouraged was Bradshaw by the
success of this time table that In 1840
he published his "Railway Companion,"
a volume of 38 pages, with maps which
sold at a shilling. These early guides
were published rather irregularly be
cause of the difficulty of learning the
changes in times from the railway au
thorities. They resented Bradshaw's
interference and put every obstacle i.
"the way of his obtaining information.
At- last, through the Quaker's persever
ance, they finally agreed to adjust their
time tables by the beginning of the
month. Thereafter it was smooth sail
ing. The guide continued to grow and
prosper and to make itself a necessity.
These early railway guides make In
teresting reading. The trains are de
scribed as first-class, second-class,
mixed, fast and mail. Third-class trav
elers had the choice of sitting on the
roofs or in open wagons resembling cat
tle trucks. Gentlemen riding in their
own carriages Wre charged second-class
fare.. Baggage was carried on the roof,
and passengers who sat there were cau
tioned to wear their overcoats and pro
vide themselves with gauze spectacles.
First-class fare between London and
Birmingham was nearly double what it
is to-day, and, an annual subscription
ticket from London to Brighton and
back cost $500.
COLDS AND THEIR CAUSES.
Why Some Persons Are More Liable
to Become Affected Than
Others.
The really Important question Is, In
what does predisposition consist? We
talk of a man "catching a cold." But it
would be more correct and equally
graphic to say that the cold has
"caught" the man. For it does catch
him unawares, and often when he least
anticipates it. But no cold ever caught
any man unless he had first prepared
the ground for it by a careful process ot
fertilization.
No amount of mere exposure to a la-r
temperature alone will cause a "cold"
in a perfectly heaithy man, in whom
the product of wear and tear of nerve
and muscle, with adequate excretion oi
waste products, on the one side is even
ly balanced by food supply and exercis;
on the other. Where the equilibrium
does not exist such exposure then oper
ates as a "chill."
Now, who are the people who are
liable to catch cold? Not those whose
dietary Is so carefully adjusted to the
work they have to do that there is no
opportunity for the accumulation of un
used foodstuffs in their tissues; but
those who, in the better-fed ranks cf so
ciety, eat and drink more than they
need to meet the dally requirements of
their bodily activity, and are thus con
tinually storing up in their tissues and
excreting- organs material which if ap
propriately used would form valuable
ammunition for the development of
energy either of body or mind, but which
when stored beyond a certain point has
to be blown off In a "cold" or a "bilious
attack," or In a pronounced fit of gout
DISAPPEARANCE OF BLONDE
Statistics Which Show That City Life
Encourages a Brunette
Population.
The somewhat startling statement ha
been made that the blue-eyed, golden
haired, and llght-complexioned variety
of the human race is in the course of ex
tinction, and that, within a few more
generations, blondes are likely to be
come so rare in the world's population
that they may be looked upon as curiosi
ties, somewhat as albinos are to-day,
writes Garrett P. Serviss, in Success
Magazine. The blonde type has been so
often chosen by artists and poets to rep
resent their noblest conceptions of hu
man beauty that no one can regard even
the bare suggestion of its extinction
without dismay. Moreover some of tho
world's greatest races and many of its
most masterful personalities have be
longed to this type, and its admirers have
sometimes gone so far as to aver that
light complexions, and in particular
light-colored eyes, are the favored livery
of the highest genius.
This is undoubtedly an extreme and
untenable claim ,and yet it cannot be de
nied that history shows an extraordinary
number of men and women of the first
rank in all the higher fields of intellect
who possessed the characteristic marks
of the blonde, and this not only In coun
tries where the light type prevails, but
also in lands like Italy, where the gen
eral complexion of the population la
dark. .

THE WILD DOGS OF INDIA.
Very Shy and Cunning Canines That
Are Not Easily Cap
tured. Mrs. Nora Gardner describes an exper
ience while hunting big game in the cen
tal provinces of India, relates the Chi
cago Daily News, as follows: "We had
been shooting for some months, and up
to a certain date had had very good luck.
Tigers and other beasts were plentiful,
and our bag was a good one. Suddenly
our luck changed. Blank day followed
blank day not because we had missed
easy shots or had to reproach ourselves
for losing wounded beasts; but slmpl.v
that we had seen nothing in the shape ol
a wild animal to shoot. Pachmark, the
hot weather station of these parts, was
just above us, so my husband and I, with
a few servants and baggage coolies,
started to climb up the hill. He and I
were riding a little In front.when he drew
my attention to a number of kites and
vultures circling in the air just ahead.
Here this, of course, meant carrion or a
dying beast of some kind, and we sent on
a 'syce' to see what it was. The man
came creeping back on all fours. 'Wild
dog, sahib! Wild dog!' he said.
"My husband got his rifle as quickly
as possible. He crept forward and sud
denly came on tbe pack making off near
ly 300 yards away. He took a hurried
shot at the last in the peak and missed.
The rest galloped off to the right, the one
he had aimed at going to the left. Willi
we were bemoaning our luck the 'syce'
touched my husband. 'Look, sahib, he
comes back!' and, sure enough, away to
the right, we saw the log going back to
join the pack. How he crossed the track
without our seeing him is a mystery. He
was already 200 yards off. My husband
made a most brilliant shot , and 'got' tha
dog just as it was crossing the bank to
the river.
"Wild dogs are not only very shy, but
very cunning, and very seldom shot.
They do an immense amount of damage.
As soon as a pack takes possession of a
jungle everything else leaves It. Even
a tiger will go If he smells wild dog. This
accounted for our recent bad luck and
the little game we had seen lately. The
one we got was a young dog, rather like
a fox, but with longer legs and; body,
thinner brush and rounder ears. There
were six in the pack and they were de
vouring a young buck they had Just
pulled down."
JAPANESE NAVAL SURGERY.
First Time Science of Shell Wounds
Has Been Studied Under
Good Conditions.
Tho essential feature of the work at
Sascbo naval hospital is that 90 percent,
of the cases of crnnance wounds are in
flicted by shell and not by bullet. Here,
than, says the National Review, for the
first time in history, the science of shell
wounds Is being studied under good mod
ern conditions. For in South Africa
hardly five per cent, of wounds, even
early in the war, were inflicted by shell,
and these were scattered up and down
the country through a dozen different
hospitals, so that a concrete study of
their peculiar features was Impossible.
In the Spanish-American and Chinese
wars there were few casualties from ar
tillery, and earlier wars are of as little
use to the modern surgeon as to the mod
ern officer of artillery. During the first
six months of the present war 180 cases
of naval shell wound had survived to
reach Japan. The report, therefore, of
the medical department of the Japanese
navy at the conclusion of the war will
make a definite addition to surgical
science. It will be of all the greater in
terest in that the three surgeon generals
of the navy know English well, and will,
it is to be hoped, issue a report in our
language on the precedent cf the'r val
uable report after the war with China,
In 1894. The director general. Baron
Sareyoshi, was educated at St. Thomas
hospital, and is a Fellow of the Royal
College of Surgeons of England. In both
of these spheres he is on common ground
with Surgeon General Totsuka, and with
one of his predecessors, Dr. K. TakakI,
who at the age of 25 became director gen
eral of the medical department of tfca
navy, improved the rice diet, stamped
out the scourge of berl-beri frorn the
ships by Introducing a thorough system
of sanitation. The director general
ranks as a vice admiral, with two small
stars on a broad gold stripe down the
shoulder strap. The other two surgeons
general rank as rear admirals, with one
star on a small stripe of gold; and medi
cal officers cf lower degree are called
doctor, rank with captains, commanders
and lieutenants, according to seniority,
and wear the corresponding marks of
rank.
Emblem of a Swift Era.
Because it is quick, the telephone is
peculiarly adapted to the needs and
temperament of the American people,
and though now finding general em
ployment abroad, it has reached its
highest development in the country
which gave it birth. Long distance con
versations ceased years ago to be a nov
elty and are now a necessity of every
day business and social life. In a few
minutes' talk by 'phone matters can now
be arranged which would require heurs
for settlement, by telegraph, and days
if the mails had to be employed. The
phone is perhaps the truest emblem of
this swiftly living age. Cleveland Plain
