The mean temperature for the week was slightly ahove normal for the same period. There were numerous complaints of too cool nights early in the week, hut the night temperatures were more fav orable during the last four days. The week's rainfall was very light and confined to the northern and southwestern border counties, and it was not general even in those sec tions. The amounts varied from a trace of rain to 0.S0 of an inch the latter at Allendale, Barnwell County. In those parts of the State where no rain fell the soil has become very dry, as the prevailing low relative humidity and frequent fresh winds evaporated the surface moisture quickly, although the lack of mois ture is as yet, not sufficiently harmful to be called a drought. Aside from the deficiency in rainfall, there were no damaging weather conditions what ever during the week. The sky was overcast as the week ended. J. W. BAUER, Section Directo*.

Lill Co., IT WILL HELP SOUTH - ?-? provisions of New Immigration Measure NEW ORLEANS GETS AN OFFICIAL Senator Gallinger's Proviso, Authoriz ing the Maintenance of Agencies at Inunigralicn Stations hy States and Corporations Interested Tacked on to thc Measure. Washington, Special.-A hill of un usual interest to the South was the immigration act passed by the Senate on Wednesday. The bill consists of a series of amendments to the exLting law, all of them intended to permit stricter regulations for keeping out the defec tive classes of aliens. The head tax is'increased from $2 to $5. Thc ques tion of sectionalism cropped out dur ing di?cussiou on the amendment authorizing the creation of a bureau of information for the benefit of im migrants. On this point Senator Mc Creary said that especial effort should be made to secure a better distribu tion of immigrants than is obtained under the present system. Now, he said, most of the new comers locate in the eastern States and large cities, where they are not needed, whereas thc South, where immigration is de 1 sired, is almost entirely overlooked. In suport of his contention he said that 2S5,000 aliens located in New York last year, and only 600 sought homes in Kentucky. He also called attention to thc fact that the South is not represented in the immigration sen-ice and criticised the arrange ment as sectionalism. Senator Spooner defended the pres ent immigration service against the charge of sectionalism and said the commissioner of immigration was in no sense an agent for the States. Senator Bacon said the provision permitting State representation at the stations should be so extended as to permit immigration societies to be represented, his object heing to af ford railroads an opportunity to present the advantages of the country penetrated by them. After further debate, an amend ment offered by Mr. Gallinger was modified and adopted. As agreed to it authorizes the creation of a division of information, limits thc expense to $20,000 and authorizes' Slates and Territories and corporations interest ed in immigration to maintain agencies at the immigration stations. A suggestion by Senator McCreary authorizing the apointment of a commissioner of immigration at New Orleans was agreed to. FACTS WORTH KNOWING. Los Angeles Has Not Suffered From Recent Earthquake. A number of exaggerated and mis leading reports in regard to thc effect upon Los Angeles of the recent San Francisco earthquake having been widely published throughout the East the Los Angeles Chamber of Com merce, by unanimous vote of the board of direetorc, has prepared for circulation the following brief state ment of facts: The damage done by earthquake in San Francisco, outside of the loss of life, did not exceed five per cerSt of the total damage done by fire and earthquake. Los Angeles is 500 miles from San Francisco, a distance equal to that from Charleston, S. C., lo Washington, D. C. Since the founding of Los Angeles by the Franciscan fathers, on Sept. 4th, 1771, up to the preser-t date, there has never been any injury what ever done to life or property hy an earthquake shock in or near the city. Geologists say that the rock foun dation underlying the city of Los Angeles is of such a nature that it is as. safe from danger of earthquake as any locality in the United Slates. From the earliest, recorded history of California, down to the date of the San Francisco earthquake, the en tire number of lives lost by earth quake shocks, within the confine* of the state, have not aggregated over 100, if so much, or less loss of life than has frequently been caused by a single cyclone or tornado. Business in Los Angeles ls booming, the manufacturers and wholesale mer chants being over-taxed to supply the extraordinary demands mjide upon them for supplies. Los Angeles being for thc time thc leading city of the Pacific Coast. Real estate values in Los Angeles have not suffered at all from the San Francisco calamity. On the contrary, prices of industrial property have shown a tendency to increase, owing to the large number of firms that are contemplating ?slablishiug themselves hf rc, som? iviup?r?iriiy, ni hers perma nently:-Los Angeli's (..'humber ut' Comme ret'. Small Outbreak in Santo Domingo Washington, Special.-News ol' .an other ?mal! oui breaks in Sanio Do mingo reached here from a naval of ficer on that station, to the follow ing effect: "News has been receiv ed of an insurrection at Marcoris, Santo Domingo, in which prisoners were released-thc rebels withdraw ing.

Kansas City, Mo., Special.-The de murrer of the Burlington Railway, denying the jurisdiction of the gov ernment in export freight rates, was overruled in the United States Court here by Judge Smith McPherson, of Iowa. The decision is of great im portance to shipping interests of all sections of the country and of particu lar weight at present because it tends to destroy tLe contention of the rail ways that export rates need not be made public. It means, too, that the Burlington Railway and the other railroad cor porations and persons indicted here in December must stand trial on the charge of accepting rebates. The trial of the Burlington was set for May 31. Attention was drawn to the report of the inter-State commerce commis sion, December 14, 1905, in which it was said that "it was a mooted ques tion whether the present act requires carriers to nie and maintain tariffs under which they transport exports and imports, but the commission has a number of times decided that the statutes covered this point." , "The same section," ihe decision says, "fiuds the same kind of com merce included by the act, aud in clude, from the United States to a foreign country." The fact that half a billion of dollars' worth of ex port? are shipped from the United States is a powerful argument in fa vor of the proposition that they should n^.t be hampered with rate tariffs difficult or impossible to observe be cause ocean rates vary from day to day. But is that an argument that oan^ persuade the courts upon the question of what construction shall be given a statute if such-statute is valid?" The statute, Judge McPherson 6ays, forbids lowering the rates except on three days' notice, and forbids rais ing them except on 10 days' notice. It is clear, he continues, "that car riers hy railways and water inland, when acting under a common agree ment, are covered by the statutes, as well as commerce by any, method with an adjacent foreign country. And as lo inter-state comerce, it is included. Because these are specifi cally enumerated, it is contended that all others are excluded. Conceding the force of this elementary' and rec ognized rule of construction, there, in my opinion, is the error of the entire argument of defendant's coun sel. Congress did not enumerate ocean commerce, because it would have been frivolous to do so." Jail For Senator Burton. Washington, Special-The Supreme Court of the United States; rendered a decision in the case of United States Senator Joseph R. Burton, of Kan sas. The decision was against Bur ton, affirming the decision of the Unit ed States Circuit Court for the east ern district of Missouri, ? by, which Burton was sentenced to six months' imprisonment in the jail of Iron coun ty, Mo., required , to pay1 ? : fine of $2,500, and deprived of the right to hereafter hold office under the gov ernment, ' ' $100,000 Fire at Abbeville, Ala.

When a fire has to be kept up all night in the room of an invalid, an old, loose glove should be kept handy with a long wooden stick. With the glove on a piece of coal can be pick-'d up with the fingers and put on the fire without making a sound, while when the fire requires poking this can be done with the stick with far less noise than with an ordinary poker. To Make Table Mustard. To prepare mustard, mix two table spoonfuls of the powder with half a teaspoonful of salt and a salt spoonful of pepper and stir to a creamy paste with equal quantities of vinegar, table or olive oil and hot water. Have ready a poker, made red hot and thrust it into the mixture till the bubbling ceases. The result is a smoothness and flavor unequalled by the bes/ French mustard. Candle Shades from Wall Paper. Very attractive candle shades of any color, in flower or design to harmonize with surroundings, are made from wall paper and coarse net. Cut the net to fit the mica shade pro tectors, which cost 10 cents apiece. Cut the designs from wall paper, of which there is an endless assortment, and paste them on the net. If a girl is skillful with her brush, the designs may be painted with still less cost.. The Art of Braising. Braising is a particularly good way io treat dry meats like veal, lean beef from the under part of the round or the face of the rump, the shoulder of mutton, heart, liver, tough fowls, pigeons or other dry game. The method of braising ls like the old time pot roast, only the braising is far easier in that the water in which it is cooked does not need replenishing and there is much less danger of the kettle burning dry. In each case the meat is rolled in flour, seasoned with salt, pepper and just a dusting of sugar to assist in the quick browning. Then it is browned in the bottom of a kettle or frying pan, using some of its own fat, drippings or butter as preferred. After this browning process, it is put into a stew pan or braising kettle, covered with well-flavored soup stock, gravy or even hot water, with herbs and seasonings, then covered tightly and left to simmer gently for several hours. . To Cleanse and Brighten Carpets. After carpets have been thoroughly beaten on both sides, the color may be brightened by the following: Add one pint of ox-gall to a pint of warm wa ter; into this dip a soaped flannel, and rub the surface of the carpet well, rinsing as you proceed with clean cold water. Use care that the carpet Is not made too wet, and finish by rub bing wit*, a dry coarse cloth. If pos sible to do this out of doors, or if the carpet is laid, open all windows, as the ox-gall has an unpleasant odor. How ever, this soon passes away. If there are grease spots on the carpet use the following mixture: one quart of soft water; aqua ammonia, two ounces; one tablespoonful saltpetre; one ounce shaving soap, finely scraped. Mix well and allow it to stand several days. Pour on enough to cover the spot and rub well, then wash off with clear water. When ink has been spilled on a carpet, dip up with a spoon as much as possible, then pour cold sweet milk upon the spot, and keep taking up with a spoon and pour ing on the milk, until the milk is only faintly colored with ink, then wash with cold water and wipe dry. Faded carpets may be restored by washing with strong salt water.-The House keeper. Recipes.

"I seo that Maxim Gorky is In Ber lin superintending the production of dis playj 'The Children ot the Sun/ " said a newspaper correspondent "Later on he will come to America and I will be glad to shake his thin, cold hand again. "I met Gorky In St. Petersburg. He Is delightful. He told me that a Rus sian soldier only gets about $2, or 3 rubles, a year-say 5 copecks a day. "During the war, said Gorky, a pri vate soldier stole a shirt worth half a ruble and was condemned to be shot. "Aa he was being led away to death his colonel act him. '"Ivan, Ivan,' said the colonel re proachfully, 'what a fool you were to risk your Ufo for the sake of 50 co pecks.' " 'Colonel/ Ivan answered, 4I risk it every day for 5 copecks.' " Moat Powerful Microscope. Dre. Zsigmondy and Sledentopi! of Jena, Germany, have devised an "ul tra-microscope" by the aid of walch particles of matter entirely undis tinguishable by ordinary microscopes of the highest power are brought to light. The principle acted on ls the same as that witnessed in the motes of dust seen floating in a sunbeam, which motes are in themselves in finitely small but which are made visible by their interruption of the light. With the new microscope parti cles of gold only l-l,260,000,0OOth of an inch in size wyre distinguished. Gold is used for giving the red color to ruby glass, and under this wonderful ini&trument the particles of gold were resolved into separate arralns of about that size, whereas undur other micro scopes the gold simply appears as a uniform coating.

"Speaking of the woful waste of money, we wish to interrupt the meet ing long enough to give a few figures on an important matter that seems to have been entirely overlooked," says Homer Hoch. "We refer to the four buttons on the sleeves of men's coats. ? Now, there are probably 600, 000 men In Kansas, and they probably have on an average two coats apiece. That makes 1,200,000 coats and 4,800, 000 or 400,000 dozen sleeve buttons. The buttons cost about 20 cents a dozen, and at that rate the men of Kansas- lalone ?ire carrying around on their coat sleeves in the form of buttons that have no use on earth or in the sky an investment of about $80,000 i And the estimate is most conservative.

He got a place on a railroad, became a brakeman, then a fireman, and one day, in an emergency, he un dertook to run a locomotive. "He ran the locomotive well enough, but he could not stop with the necessary precision, for this needs 1 practice. ] "With one station in particular he had trouble. He ran some thirty yards beyond this station, and then, putting back, he ran as far the oth- , er way. He was preparing for a third attempt, when the station agent put his head eut of the window and shouted: " '3tay where you are, Jim. We'll , shift, the station for you.'"-New York Tribune.
