He was none other thac t our own Sheriff C. J. Lyon, who has proven v himsell to be without superior past or pree ent, among all tbo-e who have worn "coked t bat and sword" in the annals ol the State. J The facts are about as follows: The city police found a man's bat on one Fannie Hall, ( that cost more than tbe bats usually woru by t neero women cost. r She was put into the custody of Sheriff r Lyon. On Inquiry this was discovered to be c a Stetson bat, bandied by Hall & Ande-sou. t Hall & Anderson bad recently had a Urge c consignment of these hats stolen from a Seaboard car. Mr. Lyon questioned F.innle Hall closely and oo\lnformatlon obtained from [ ber be made several other arrests. These t lead to tbe Information that certain negroes a in Anderson were carrying on systematized i thefts. Mr* Lyon went to AndersoD and i /\? thsnn Horu H U QPrPfitdH fin C t Jesse Williams on the description given, bm tie found him to be the wrotg rano. He was, however, almost a duplicate of ibe real mm, Isaac Green. Mr. Lvon learn?d that Is?a< Gr^n bad sold a number of S etsou bats oui on Mr. Hammonds plate and be and police man Martin arrested biro. These two ofileermanaged to gel a full confession from Isaac Green In voivlng the stealing of about S300 worth of gunB out of the depot in Anderson, the steallni; of several hundred dollars worth K of b*ts and other articles at a dlffeynt time. The negroes implicated Id the Mealing were Ixaac G-eene, Geo. Quarle^and VValer Davis and others not yei captured. They disposed of much of their loot through q nfgro Ben Ketl, at Pendleton, who runs an wtabllshment on a tremendous scale for dlfcpo?lng of stolen goods. < Another branch of the band Is about to be unearthed near-Green wood and Is being followed under sheriff Lyons direction.

Lannelougue has communicated >18 observations, declare mark a noteworthy tep in the campaign against consumption. Professor Lannelonguo experimented with uberoular animals, treating, them with a peclal t-erum, Tbe results obtained were so ucceesful that he deolded to experiment on nan, "la making researches of this sort," aald he doctor, "it Is Impossible to ba too careful, ind tbe results obtained by one man are not nouKh That Is why 1 confided my ideas to our other physicians, Dootora Comby, Lenoir, Jegry and Kuesi, so that they might praotloe be treatment on their patients. During tbe tast year and a balf tbey have applied my netbod In tuberonlar cases In varying coalitions. Tbe serum which I discovered with lobard aud Galllard, my collaborators, was alien from a donkev or a horse. Tbe experiments made on human being p iave been wltb serum of tbe donkey, and tbe egu!la have beeD remarkable. Ttte oonoluton h reached by tbe physicians are therefore avorable.

Id a paper ead before tbe congress ol surgery, Doyen sited several cases which bad been declared lopeless, and which be said had actually been ured by his treatment. Ho mimmerl nn ?h follows? "The results of antl-oaucer vaccination are tow certain. It Is Indisputable that this neibod Is the only efficacious means of itruggllng against the extension of malignant umors.

Second: That we realise tbat tbe cotton grower Is Justly entitled to tbe aotlve aid of tbe financial and commercial Intereau to enable tbe grower to so bold and opportunely sell bis ootton Instead of being In large part oompelled, by present spstems >r credits and times of payment, lack of proper warehouse facilities, etc., to sell ootton in tbe fall months, \tbus glutting tbe market and lowering prices. Third: That a great step forward baa been taken, by tbe appointment of oommlttees from the Farmers' Union and the New Orleans Progressive Union to bold Joint con* ferenoes and prepare plans to remedy these conditions, and we express the belief that snob Joint committee will devise safe and proper plans for the solution of these problems.

' ' 7J Third Thtla That Haa Beea Sent Out by the National A??oclatlon?S?mtk to Be Tamrfct to Bpil? Highways ' Scientifically. ' ^ a train of twelve cars, known as Ihe "Good Roads Special," left Washington on the .Unea of the Southern railway early In November to stop at ten or twelve of the chief cities reached by the system and aid. In organizing good roads associations and at the same time give a practical Illustration v J modern road making. The tour will end Jan. L The train carried a full equipment of roadmaklng machinery and a party of eighteen persons, all skilled In the M A ?? - ? * ? uuumacturg U1 gUUVl UUl OUJ uiav.auem roads. It Is the third such train i to be organised through.the efforts of the National Good Roads association,one having been sent along the route ! of the Illinois Central from April to > < } y i July and a second having traversed the district between Chicago and Buffalo 1 along the routes of the Lake Shore : | route and the New York Central. Br- \ i ery where the meetings have been wide* ' ly attended and have produced peri manent organizations determined to ' better the country roads of the sec; tion concerned. ; Mr. Martin Dodge, director of the of: flee of public road inquiries in the agriI cultural department, and M. O. Eli dridge, his assistant, with Mr. W. H. ! Moore, president of the National Goody7 x > Roads association, are In charge of the ' "Good Roads Special.'" Under their dl-/ ' rectlon fourteen road experts, Mr. R. t I W. Richardson, secretary of the na, tlonal association, and several clerks (> . i will undertake to organize In each of i the cities visited a permanent good , roads Association. To this end they > will confer with the mayor and city A | council of each city and the officers of [ Its'commercial organizations, arrgpge | L 'OMj a WBOKO PLA CE. r that a suitable hall shall be hired and r obtain the use of ten or twelve teams, 5 as many men and a sufficient supply! 1 v 'i v '1^? 1 of crushed stone to construct a length j of good road as a sample. , When the train arrives, the engineers , will begin at once to build about ) mil of dirt road with the teams, men / 3 and materials furnished by the local? $ lty. They will then surface or macad- f amice as much of that road as ~thelr time wllT permit When the practlca* billty of the movement haa been thus \ manifested, the mayor and commercial t organisations will unite In a call for a ) public meeting to organize an assoda* tion. j < ' Tr -0 President Moore of the National Good Boa da association says of the project: ' ? "The south can have good roads if It j will, and the sooner the citizens get to* s gether and work al^ng some well or* . ganized and practical line these results 1 will be reached the quicker. There Is e nothing that will do more to Increase J the valne of virgin lands and advance the development of the rural districts B than\ well constructed public roads. B The Improvement of the road system will have a wonderful effect upon stimL ulating the settlement of people on farm8, and as these settlements are mlng made so will the value of the land Increase. "Wherever a city or town Is fonnd 9 possessing well nu.de roadways lead. lng therefrom you will find the busla nesa of that point Is In a prosperous 0 condition. Therefore the citizens of ? every town in the south will be promoting their owe Interests If they glva J 1 this movement their moral and If nee* essary financial support "It Is hoped that every state, county, , city and town officer will give this sub9 Ject of better roads serious eonsidera- ? i tion and then take the matter in hand \ Immediately and show his constituents that the movement for better roads will receive his utmost consideration and utmost co-operation. "It is universally decided that good roads are what we want In order to secure them we must pull together, working systematically and on practical lines. This grand tom^pUnned by/^ the Southern Railway comR&ny, is. a signal for action. If the stated visit ed are not alive to this and do not avail themselves of the opportunity to secure Information rendered by the good roads i special train, no one will be at fault i^except the citizens of the states in which the exhibits are made." i (trades of Boadi. The grade Is the most important fac* r tor to be considered In the location of ' roads. The smoother the road surfacs the less the grade should be. Whether , the road be constructed of earth, a ton* ; or gravel, steep grades should always ' be avoided if possible. They become covered at times with coatings of ice ' or slippery soil, making them very aim* cult to ascend with loaded vehicles, as well as dangerous to descend.
