HEW YORK LETTER
New York, May :S. Rev. James R.
Day, D. D., chancellor of the Syracuse
university, occupied the apex of sen
satlonalism laat week, and there are
till some tumblings that, like San
Francisco's big earthquake, start other
neighborhoods. Mr. Day Is quite a
sensational man, and there's no telling
what a day will bring forth. In tak
lng hold of the Standard Oil question
he Just naturally slopped over In a
mighty torrential way. He called the
president of the United States an an
archlst, and later hinted that Im
peachment proceedings would Just
about Oil the bill, for assailing private
rights and naming persona In his mes-
age.
Mr. Day Is a great lover of Standard
Oil and Its officials. He plainly states
that he will take all the "tainted
money" he can get Mr. Archbold,
of the Standard OH company, has the
Syracuse university under his wing,
being Us particular guardian, nnd
many are the little and big donations
that he has dropped Into Its trenury,
and more, much more, Is expected.
Mr. Day Just couldn't help bursting
out in the way he did. for the presi
dent has hurt his friends.
Dr. Day was once pastor of Ca'vary
Methodist Episcopal church, Harlem,
and believed In revivals. He Increas
ed the membership of the church
most remarkably, making It the
strongest Methodist church in the city.
Dr. Day was a candidate for bishop
alx years ago, and stayed In the bal
loting three days, but the solid, sober
aense of the Methodist church re
frained from electing him. If It had
elevated him to the bishopric, an. he
had belched out as he has done. In
such an unseemly fashion, there "euid
have been a howl in the denomination
that might have almost split It In
twain.
A great many Methodist divines
smiled when they read his Phl'lip.c
against the president, and said:. "Oh,
that's Just Day." But it Is not prova
ble that any member of congress will
take up the cudgels on Day's idea,
and start the ball rolling for Roose
velt's impeachment. Meanwhile, how
ever, matters go on apace. The Stan
dard OH company, unlike Its previous
acts, has opened a publicity depart
ment, and is answering all questions
asked In the most liberal manner
possible. It proposes now to argue
with and convince the public.
It Is at last authoritatively settled
what was the name of the great navi
gator who first sailed up the noble
Hudson, and after whom it was
named, the name chosen for the river
happily having no obscurity about It
For centuries the navigator has been
called Hendrick, and yet that wasn't
his name, it being simple Henry, Just
like a plain every day American of
modern times. This matter is settled
by Hugh Hastings, historian of the
state of New York, who auoM from
the original contract between tho di
rectors of the East Indian company
and the Chamber of Amsterdam, mJe
on the 8th day of January, 1S09, and
which bears the name In the Dutch
copy, both In the. body of the docu
ment and the signature, "Henry Hud
son." Thank the Lord, there has'been one
big work for the public that has had
no suspicion of graft about it, and
that is the most remarkable investi
gation this city ever had, the Investi
gation of the insurance companies.
This Investigation took up a great deal
of tlms, the work upon It was very
strenuous, and there was stffcdy at
tention to every detail. Besides that
there was displayed a large measure
of genius In the manners of investi
gating, that made every shot tell.
And yet the bill of Charles E.
Bughes, the legal examiner, was only
$16,000, a paltry sum compared with
the sums counsel received from the
company in Its undisturbed days. If
he had put it at 1100,000, there would
not have been a murmur, and it
would have been paid without hesl
attion, as being a piece of work of ex
ception value. The whole expenses
foot up but a little over $100,000.
Some of the old-timers would have
spent a half to a whole million on the
work, and not have reached such con
clusive results.
The school authorities have been
greatly disturbed in regard to the
proper way for the children to carry
their school books to and from , the
school houses. They established a
rule that they should carry them first
on the right side, and then on the
left side, doing one on the even days,
and the other on the odd days. In
this way It was thought that their
weight would not tend to make the
children lop-sided by tending to curve
the spines. Many educators, as well
as writers who make a specialty of
school subjects, have proposed differ
ent ways to be ordered, but so far Su

Reduction of Taxes.
Prevention of Graft.
A Square Deal for AIL
lng the books alternately from side to
side, prevails.
But what seems to be a better plan
Is that of the Prussian schools, where
the children are fitted out with little
knapsacks, which are filled with the,
books and strapped upon the shoul
dera of the little ones, giving them a
seml-mllltary look, and at the same
time tending to keep the shoulders
erect, and contribute to the expansion
of the chest. This plan certainly does
not tend to curve the spine, as one side
Is not used any more than the other.
The subject Is certainly an Important
one, more so than the casual thinker
Is apt to consider. We have plenty
of crooks In this generation, and want
no more to come up to us from the
rising generation.
SAVED THE LANDS." "
Bw D Cmii' Great fsens Hap
pn4 to Be Dellwamd.
The longest speech on record is be
tiered to have been that made by Mr.
de Cosmus In the legislature f Brltlst
Columbia when a measure wai pend
ing the passage of which wenld hav
taken from a great many settlers theli
lands. De Coauiua was in a minority
The measure had 'been held back til
the eve of the close of the era son oi
session. Unless action was taken be
fore noon of a given day the act weald
fall De Cosmus got the floor at 1C
a. m. and began a speech against tht
bill. Its friends supposed he would bi
done by 1 o'clock. At 2 o'clock he wai
saying, "In the second place." At i
he produced a fearful bundle of evl
dence and Insisted on reading tt
Then the truth dawned. He was go
lng to speak till noon the next day and
kill the bill. Then they made merry
over it and tried to shout him down
but that gave him time and breathing
space. They Anally settled down tc
watch the combat betweeu the strengtt
of will and weakness of body. Thej
gave no mercy, no time for dinner oi
wetting lips with water and no sitting
down. Members went to dine and
sleep in squads, but De Cosmus wen!
on. Day dawned.
The speaker was alternately dozing
snd trying to look wide awake. A1
last noon came, and a single man wai
triumphant Although his voice. had
sunk to a husky whisper, his eyes were
bleared and bloodshot, his legs tottered
under him, his baked Hps were cracked
and smeared with blood, De Cosmut
bad spoken for twenty-six hours and
saved the lands.
THE BANANA PLANT.
Each Tree Pradaeea Oalr Oae Baaeb
of the Fralt.
The banana plant is not properly s
tree at all. It has no woody fiber. It If
a large, green, fleshy plant, with big
leaves six or eight feet long and some
times two feet broad. It grows to a
height of ten to fourteen feet or eves
more, according to the' variety ol
plant and the soil and climate. Each
tree produces one bnncb of fruit only,
wblcu Is really the terminal bud of the
plant. Just like an ear of wheat oi
barley. It bas no branches, and when
the fruit is ready, which s twelve ot
fifteen months from the date of plant ,
lng; the tree Js tut down and done
wth.
But while it is growing tip and ma-
taring Its fruit it Is at the same time
sending np from its roots other young
plants or suckers perhaps eight or
nine of them. Each of these will pro
duce its own bunch In turn, some of
them in a couple of months after the
parent plant, and there will thus be a
regular succession of fruit Many of
these suckers have to be dug up and
planted elsewhere, or they would be
too thick on the ground.
And there Is this peculiarity about
the banana: You can plant it at any
season, and the fruit ripens all the
year round. When once a banana field
bas been planted out all that is neces
sary to be done is to keep it clear of
weeds and keep thinning out the multi
plying suckers.
A Cartons Woodri Watch,
The most curious timekeeper perhaps
that has ever been made In this coun
try was the work of one Victor Dorlot,
who lived at Bristol, Tenn., In the last
century. This borologlcal oddity was
nothing more or less than a wooden
watch. The case was made of brier
root, and the Inside works all except
three of the main wheels and the
springs, which were of metal were
made from a piece of an old boxwood
rule. The face, which was polished
until It looked like a slob of finest
Ivory, was made from the shoulder
blade of an old' cow that bad been
killed by the cars. "Doriot's queer
watch," as It was called, was an open
faced affair, with a glass crystal, and
was pronounced an elegant piece of
workmanship toy all the watchmakers
in east Tennessee.
A Wonderfal Memory.
Hortenslus, the great Roman lawyer
and orator, bad a memory of extraor
dinary scope and tenacity. After com
posing a speech or oration be could re
peat it word for word exactly as be
bad prepared it On one occasion be
went to an auction, where the business
was carried on during an entire day,
and at evening, for a wager, be wrote
down a. list of the articles that bad
been sold and the prices, together with
the names of the purchasers, in the
order in whlcb the purchases bad been
made.
Llaaete la Africa.
Dr. Arthur J. Hayes In bis "The
Source of the Blue Nile" tells bow the
linnets come to drink out of the Atbara
river: "They come with an undulating
rush, and, small as they are, the rush
ing of the wind as they beat the air
makes a noise like thunder, and their
numbers darken the sky. The weight
of the throngs of them which alight at
time bends down ths soda of the
overhanging branches and twigs to tit
lev at of the water." ,

IT PAYS TO FATTEN
Will It nav to fatten horses tor the
market? says the Chicago Livestock
World.
R. C. Obrecht, of the Illinois ex
periment station, has just completed
an Interesting experiment which
showed that the gain sold at 25 cents
per pound on the Chicago market.
This looks like a better proposition
than cattle feeding, where the value
of the gain Is but 66 cents.
But It must not be concluded that
fattening horses Is an open-and-shut
cinch.
Professor Obrecht calls attention
to the fact that there is more danger
of loss Incidental to handling horses
on feed than in the case of cattle.
Tpu cannot run horses in a bunch
In the feed lot' as you can cattle.
They are high strung, active and lia
ble to Injure one another. Stall
feeding is essential to safety.
But when you confine a horse for
90 to 100 days In a Btall he is disposed
to get off his feed, and herein lies
the danger of wiping out profits.
In fattening horses It is necessary to
know how. It is the same secret that
applies to the successful traveling of
all avenues to profit.
In this Instance 20 horses were put
on. feed at the Illinois experiment
station. They cost $185 each, on an
average, at the outset, and sold at
(288.37, a profit that looks decidedly
attractive. But Obrecht knew how
to handle the stock, and that counted
for much.
A significant feature of this exper
iment was the demonstration of the
worthlessness of timothy hay. It is
an Incident horse fleshers will do well
to keep In mind. Timothy hay is a
good thing to haul to town and sell
to the other fellow. And when he
buys It he gets trash.
Clover hay has It beat all around
the circuit. In this experiment horses
fel on corn, oats and clover hay
gained 277 pounds each In 92 days,

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC COMPANY, ATLANTA, OA, '
HORSES FOR MARKET
At 20 cents this would mean $55.40
and at the beginning of the experi
ment a responsible horse dealer of
fered the experiment station authori
ties that price for all the gain made.
In the case of the lot fed on the same
ration, but with timothy substituted
.'or clover, the gain waa but 142
pounds, and the timothy ration cost
more than clover.
From th'a it Is plain that timothy Is
an unprofitable raw material for farm
feeding operations. If you must
grow It, sell to the man in town.
Corn, oats and clover hay, with a II
tle bran and oil meal, constitute an
ideal ration for fattening horses.
And don't overlook the fact that It
Is necessary to buy the right kind of
horses to start with. Type and quality
Is of Importance. In feeding for the
spring market, select the type known
as eastern chunks. - For the winter
market a heavier beast Is wanted.
The man who knows how, can
farm-feed horses and make money
at It. While it is a sphere a novice
will do well to venture into with cau
tion, the necessary knowledge can
easily be acquired. Write to Prof.
Obrecht and ask htm about It. He Is
a horseman from the ground up and
Is trying to put corn-belt farmers In
a position to make a little money.
His bulletin, giving details of this ex
periment, will soon be out. Oet It
and read It There may be money in
It for you.
