TILLMAN ON THE TREATY. Thinks That Democrats Will Not Be Able To Have It Fall of Confirmation. Senator Tillman while in Spar tanburg recently, speaking of af fairs at Washington, says the Spar tanburg Journal, said that the 1 greater part of the discussion in the senate and everywhere in political circles is on the Colombian affair and the Panama canal. Asked concerning the position of the dem ocratic and southern senators in re lation to the canal, the senator said: "Well, there are only thirty three democratic senators, and to prevent the ratification of the treaty I the minority will have to control I thirty-one votes, and I am afraid i that the Mississippi, Louisiana and I Texas influence fzr the canal, with that from other places also, will de moralize our forces and let the trity pass. We all want the canal, but give it to us honestly, decently. "The difficulty is that people for get that the Panama route is not the only one, but the republican party has no morals nor respect for a weaker country They want the Panama canal, whether they get it 1 by fair means or foul." The reporter asked if there were much discussion concerning affairs in the Orient. Senator Tillman said that little or nothing was said I of it in the senate but that there is a great deal of quiet, earnest dis cussion over conditions in China. "Sympathy is all with Japan in the Japan-Russian trouble," re marked the senator. "Roosevelt would be delighted to get some ex cuses to embroil this country in the 'mess in China.' It is too early to say what the outcome will be as to our country." SAYS rr BEATS WHISKEY. South Carolina 'Man Invents Process to Make Drink From Watermelons. Topeka Capital. J. H. Nicholes, of Wedgefield, S. C., believes that he has discov- I ered a process to make a drink out of watermelon juice which will Rupersede whiskey, and he wants the Kansas State board of agricul ture to assist him in securing capital to exploit the discovery. Mr Nicholes says that he under stands that some of the farmers of Kansas are raising watermelons simply for the seed and are throw ing away the melons after the seeds are extracted. He asserts that this is simply throwing away millions of dollars yearly: In his letter he says : "I have the necessary machinery planned for separating and preserv ing watermelon juice, and I have a process for clearing the juice so that in a few days it will look like pure corn whiskey, and in fifty or sixty days can give you a nice drink1 with alcohol enough in it to make you feel it if you drink a tumbler full. "I believe in temperance accord ing to the Apostle Paul, and I have come to the conclusion that whis- 1 key, as made these days, in an un natural drink-too concentrated and as long as I can get watermelon juice, as I make it, I never will drink any more whiskey. "I have sold the watermelon juice for $2 per gallon, and there are millions in it at 50 cents per gal lon." Known By the Legislature.

The exper ience he has acquired during his four years of service as a director will be invaluable to his two new aesoites on the board. MILK IN BRICKS. oldified Cream is Now Sold in Chunks Through New Process. The inventors of a method by which milk is now being solidified oo considerable scale confidently be ieve that their discovery will not on y abolish the many dangers of the: lairy, but will eventually do away with the dairy itself. They are :onfident, that is, that the day of iquid milk is over. People who have tried to solidify nilk before have employed too low i temperature in their fear of de :omposing its fats and sugars, and n consequence have failed. But )y the Just-Hatmaker process the iquid milk is whisked round pol shed cylinders kept at q fierce heat >y steam, and comes off in a few seconds in the form of a continuous :reamy-white sheet five feet in: vidth. This is reduced to powder, mnd may be compressed into cakes. The feature of the product is that t is still potentially -ilk-the rhole milk and nothing but the nilk. and to make new milk at any :ime it is only necessary to add the seven parts of water which have een evaporated. The result is said to be difficult to listinguish from fresh milk. Its :ream rises naturally, and it may e made into butter or cheese. The owder cakes keep indefinitely, and ;amples have been sent round the veld and kept for three weeks in ta;. returning quite fresh. Do.usly it is impossible to water, kim or adulterate solid milk. and fact to which the inventors attach; mxtreme importance is that all at :empts to cultivate microbes on it iave failed.-San Francisco Call. PROTECT THE FISHES. troug Extraet from a Sensible Editorial on an important Platter. ews and Courier. It goes without saying that no >ll that discriminates imperiously igainst any county should be )assed, and that whatever bill shall )e passed shall be "fair" to the; :oast counties-and to all the;: )thers. What is "fair" to all of :hem, however is a nice question, d one that should receive the: nost thoughtful consideration of :he Legislature. It might not be air to all of them, for example, to. llow three or four of their niim >er practically to destroy all the shell fish, or the migratory fish, by wasteful or improper methods of aking them, inspired by greed of~ emporary gain, and having no re ard to consequences. Terrapin, mud sturgeon have been nearly ex-: :erminated from the State in a few years by such methods, and oys ers, clams and shad are now se-: iously tbreatened with the same sate. It is a pertinent and "fair"'' uestion, .,. .ther the representa :ives in the Legislature of the ma erial interests of all the counties, 'he State, should permit a few fish ~rmen in the coast counties to de ~troy public resources of food and rofit which are among the most aluable in the State, and in which Il the people of the State have -ights and interests, without mak g an effort to stop the reckless work. Just Get Out Doors. ~tlanta Journal. A current magazine tells of a New ?ork gentleman who said to his amily physician, "Doctor, I find I m using too much coffee, and may. >e just a little too much tobacco. hat do you advise me to do? I vant to stop these habits, but don't ;eem to be able to. If I stop coffee, can't work." 'My friend,'' said the physician,' 'a great many people ask me that~ meston in the course ot a year. I tell them all just what I tell you don't try to quit your tobacco, if that would inconvenience you in your work. Just get out of doors often enough so that you can stand your coffee and your tobacco. And then you'll be all right." The anecdote is timely at this sea son of the year. A great many peo ple feel badly towards the winter's end, and fancy that it is because they are drinking too much tea or coffee, or eating too much, when what they really need is more ox ygen and ozone. Temperance is an essential thing, of course; but the most rigid temperance in all matters cannot make a man feel as be should unless the lungs are sup plied with plenty of fresh air and the body invigorated with sunlight. Just get out of doors. There are only a certain number of sunny days in a person's life. Why not make'the most of them? THE LADIES favor painting their churches, and therefore we urge evL,ry Minister to remember we give a liberal quantity of the Longman & Martinez Paint toward the painting. Wears and covers like gold. Don't pay $1.50 a gallon for Linseed Oil (worth 60 cents) which you do when you buy other paints in a can with a paint label on it. 8 & 6 make 14, therefore when you want fourteen gallons of paint. buy only eight of L. & M., and mix six gallons pure Linseed Oit with it, and thus get paint at less than $1.20 per gallon. Many houses are well painted with four gallons of L. &. M. and three gal lons of Linseed Oil mixed therewith. These Celebrated Paints are sold by The Newberry Hardware Co.
