i
The Most Remarkable Case on Record.
Seventeen of the Thirty i
Children Are Living.
Four boys were born to Mrs.
A brain Gotofsky, of Terry Hill, N.
J., on Wednesday. All of tbem arc
In good health. The combined weight I 1
of the quadroupiets is 16 pounds |
and four ounces.
Mrs. Gotofsky, who is 32 years of
age is the mother of 30 cnidlern, 17
of whom are living- She was born
near Warsaw, Poland, and came to
this country in 1891.
She was married in New York ill
April, 1892, and immediately left
for her new home ou an 18 acre
farm near Terry Hills.
Mrs. Gotofsky gave birth to twins
on March 22, 1893. Roth are living
Since then the Gotof<-\V family haihad
an annual increase of one, two
or three members. In 1894 but one
came, and that one died within a
week after its birth. Twins followed
In 1896, and in 1896 triplets, all
of whom are living. The twins born
in 1897, 1898 and 1899 all died in
tntnncy.
Mrs. Gotofsky gave birth to one
child only in each of the two following
years, but in 1902 she was again
the mother of twins. For the next
three years one child was born annually,
and then in 1906 triplet*
came. Last year they wore twins
and the four which were added oi
Wednesday make the total numbe:
of 30.
Besides raising his family, Mr. Go
tofsky has had such great succesthat
he now owns the place with ui
mortgage nnd has added about 2t
acres to the original 18.
GOV. HEY WARD VERY SICK

IiIb trip to Georgia last week.
It was hoped that this trip won if'

do so. On his return from Georgii
his condition was found to he seri

For several days he has been confined

Gov. Heyward was too ill to h?
seen Wednesday, but it was stated 01
his behalf that he will not be a can

THE SOLDER BUSINESS.
% Modern Army Should be Organl?
ed So As To Attract Good Men.
In the old days of chivalry th?
soldier did not receive direct pay Id
ihe exact sense that he does to-day
!>ut for hla services rewards wen
iue, and necessarily so. to preserve
n him proper subordination. HI*
<eep and his weapons were furnished
him by his "over-lord," and with
Lbem food and raiment, and certain
.privileges pertaining to his art, now
<nowo aud Included in the modern
'.erm "loot.".
The rule has passed down the a^et
ihat a fighting man must needs fight
.or somethlug more substantial than
irlnclple, and more satisfying thai)
patriotism,- so that even in the Rev
lutlou, the obscure pages of history,
h found this momentous question ol
jay, and right troubling as It was at
hat time.
In the War of 1812, a better regu
atlou had come into effect and the
illowances for rations and clothing
md pay were saner and more satis
ying, as Indeed was true- in tht
ater war with Mexico, and in the
.' eat Rebellion of 1860. The side
von which had the money behind it:
he armies which were fed and clothd
and paid, were maintained at
ffectlve strength during the terri>le
later days" struggles, while the
vss fortunate opponents found theli
ghting strength dwindling away,
ruo perhaps, owing to physical exlaustion,
but nevertheless equally
rue. Indeed, owing to an uncertain
upply of the essential elements lor
oldlers; and not the leaBt of these
as pay.
Parallel with this question arises
he fact that a soldier's profession is
i trade in oxactly the same sense that
arpentry, masonry or mechan'cs
re a source of livelihood, and to
maintain an effective, disciplined aray,
the renutueration must be coni'Utltive
with the price paid in civilian
.fe. So lu the War of the Rebellion,
fter the supply of volunteer eulist
onts bad been practically exhaustd,
the authorities did not appeal
o the partiotism of the natlou, "ntt
o the poclgets. In the Ehape of a
ounty, and this certainly did meet
te situation for the time being.
The days of going to church with
rlfie over the shoulder have been
>rgotteu. the menace of the Indian
I the West has passed, there is uni
orsal security practically from one
od ot the country to the other, aud
le soldier's weapon, once so neceisry
for sqjf-preservation, is used on/
sb a diversion in the few rematntg
game centers, and in the target
alieries.
With this has passed the fellow
cling for the man who must face
iiysical annihilation at the call of
.jriuclple and the order of his su rior.
So that the drat question
died by a prospective recruit Is the
uiuru IUIIB IJIICSIIUU Ui l>?y, HUQ II1S
rat mental action 1b a comparison
etween the Holdier pay and that of
.a former occupation. The altracve
recruiting posters do not state
uch about the actual advantages o4
-oldior's life from a patriotic point
view; they dwell upon the pay
id the allowances, and somewhat of
urse upon the change of life in
>lved.
So the great fallacy that each and
ery American is a soldier by in.inct
and race if a rifle is but placI
in his hand, is pathetically apparnt
to-day. This was Indeed true to
certain extent when the edge of
he forest might harbor the savage
ndian, but that has long passed, and
he performances of our citizen sollery,
such as at Rladenshurg and
t (Jueenstowu, and later in the earler
days of the Civil War. does not
effect any great amount of credit
u America.
A modern army to-day must be
rgauized upon a business basis if it
.lust compete for men with the n i
ustrial world; the soldier must re
elve adequate pay and allowance." .

PEARLER WELL EQUIPPEC

Sea?Spends From Six to Eight
Hours There.
The Servllia pearl given by Jullut
Caesar to Brutus' mother was said tt
have beeu worth $175,000, says Lou
don Tit-Bits. For a pearl au incu
in diameter a Persian shah of tht
seventeenth century Is said to havt
paid $320,000. The pearl market it
somewhat lower nowadays, but price's
are still high enough to make diving
profitable.
The era of naked divers exposed
to peril Irom sharks has passed
away. Modern progress equips tht
pearler with a suit of India rubber
copper breastplate, with leaden
weights back and front; helmet, glass
panelled and with telephonic attach
ments; air pipes, life lines and 6
submarine searchlight. Thus equip
ped the pearl diver may spend six or
eight hours at the bottom of the sea,
whereas in olden times three minutes
made a record.
Although pearls are found In nearly
all mollusks and even In univalve?
like the Australian hallotis, a kind
of barnacle, true pearls are produced
only by the pearl oyster or mothei
ot pearl shell. The latter is reall.v
the diver's bread and butter. Th?
shells are as big as dinner plates and>
weigh two pounds when cleaned
They fetch from $500 to $750 a ton
The aucleul fisheries were chielly
in the Indian Oceau and Persian Gull
but nowadays the best pearls coma

waters", especially Torres Straits
Pearl fishing in Ceylon is a govern
mer.t monopoly. In March the tleel
starts for the pearling grounds, each
vessel with twenty or thirty divers
and their assistants. But the head
quarters of pearling are to be fornd
in the desolate country extending
from Exinouth Gulf to King Sound

A glisteniug white coast line is
this, whose monotovy is broken only

Fixing Up Things. I
Taft's friends being in a majority i
on the National Republican Executive
Committee have things their *
own way, and what they say goes, i
The committee has been in session in i
Chicago for several days arranging '
the contested delegations, which are
mostly from the South. From near- <
ly every Southern State there is a <
Taft and an anti-Taft delegation,
but this does not worry the Taft
people much. They proceed to fix
up things easy for Taft by putting
the names of those delegates who
are favorable to him on the list.
ine opposition is iuu 01 rage, Dut
it rageth in vain.C As the Charleston
Post says "all is Taft that comes
into the hopper of the national committe,
or rather all is Taft that comes
out of the mill. Evidently it is intended
that 110 chance shall be taken.
The convention is to be most
carefully constituted so that it will
turn out no other result than a Taft
nomination, and the national committee
is on the job. Taft agents
and exponents hold proxies for
seats on the committee, his employees
swarm about the scene, and
steadily the grind goes on that is to
convert the opposition into support.
In vain do the "allies" shriek to
heaven that they are undone by this
high handed proceeding; that is
what the Taft machine is for, made
and guaranteed for just such undoing
work and its operators are quite
accustomed and arc entirely indifferent
to the shrieks of the victims.
The order has gone out of the White
House to nominate Taft and that
will be done, in spite of the consequences.
The full brutality of the
Roosevelt policy is being illustrated
to the eminent gentlemen who are
candidates against the favorite.
They may be Republicans in good
standing but they might just as well
be Democrats for all the consideration
they are going to receive in
this business of Mr. Roosevelt's.
"Maybe it is a winning game, hut
maybe, too, it will be carried to far.'
The Republican convention this year
is to be a political massacre, and
the shedding of so much Republican
blood must leave some sorrow and
some hatred behind. Will Mr. Fair
banks and Mr. Hughes and Mr. Cannon
and Mr. Knox and Mr. La Follette
feel like whooping it up for
Mr. Taft after the convention has
jammed him at the head of the ticket
over their mangled corpses? Of
course they will whoop, all right,
but will they feel comfortable and
enthusiastic? Not very much so. And
there will l>e a good many thousands
who will know their feeling and will
take it out at the polls. The Republicans
are a well disciplined political
crowd but they have their limit of
endurance and the allies may have
reached it this time.
"They certainly should have, for
there never was seen before?no,
not even when Hanna was framing
up the nomination of McKinlev -such
wanton disregard of the rights
and interests of all save the favorite,
as has been in the preliminaries of
the Chicago convention. It witpretty
bad in 1896 and the effect of
it would have shown in the election
too, except that every thing was
forgotten in the face of the free silver
menace of the Democrats. There
will be no cloud of that sort this
year to obscure the enmities of thi
Republicans, nor under the cover of
which they may make truce, and
A 1 1
me raw spots tne convention is g<ing
to make on the party will not
easily be healed. The Republican
convention is being run in a way
that promises some comfort to ti tDemocrats.
From the point ol
| view of a Democrat the performance
is distinctly entertaining."
Ilryan Will Fk-at Tall.
Taft is certain to recieve the Republican
nomination for President
at Chicago this month, and he is
equally certain to be defeated at
the polls in November by Bryan,
who will be nominated by acclamation
at Denver as the Democratic
Presidential candidate. As tin
National Food Magazine puts it
"the politicians have agreed under
the will of Mr. Roosevelt and Taft
influence, that the 350-pounder
shall be nominated by the Republi
can party but the people do not
A'ant Taft." The Magazine goes or
to say that "the people have two
idols: thev will be satisfierl with ni. I
ther. Theif preference, however,
would be for the one who has been
tried and found honest, courageous
and just. Therefore the people
would rather vote for Theodore
Roosevelt than for William Jennings
Bryan. But they believe in Mr.
Bryan---they know that many of the
policies called Roosevelt policies todiy
were the Bryan pe iciesj of
t velve years ago, executed by a man
having the courage of his convictions.
They know now, from the
exposures of recent years that Mr,
Bryan was defeated for the presidency
in both his campigns by a deluge
of money coming from the coffers
of the 'twilight zone' marau
ders. They believe that William
Jennings Bryan knows Jhe difference
betweeen right and wrong and has
the courage to protect the people's '
interest. They love Theodore Roose- th
velt for the good he has occomplish- th
ed; they love William Jennings Bry- ca
em for the good they knew he can Ts
accomplish. The republican party hii
will either nominate Theodore an
Roosevelt or go to defeat if the kr
democratic party nominates William fo
Jennings Bryan. The National Food pi
Magazine has no interest in politics,
as such, but is interested in the
election of men who will strive for ar
the passage of good laws and insist ki
on their execution. For thirty years th
the United States was in sore need w
of a food law that would prohibit pj
the swindling adulterator from pois in
oning the people, but it was not un- pi
til Theodore Roosevelt became pres- aj.
ident that such a law was made pos- si
sible. The "interests" were too tl
strong until the man of courage m
arrived at the White House. We
know what he accomplished for the ^
cause this magazine represents and ^
we would therefore prefer that
Theodore Roosevelt be retained as n
the president of the U.?ited States, _
but if this cannot be done, our pre- ~~
ference is for a man who believes
in the same principles and who. we
believe, has equal courage in action William
Jennings Bryan.
The Old Veterans.
Again the United Confederate a
Veterans, grizzled heroes who
fought on many bloody battlefields ,,
for a loosing cause, are assembled
in annual reunion at Birmingham, p
Ala. Death has thinned the ranks n
visibly since the general reunion in
Richmond last year, and a hush of V
sadness has fallen upon the remnants ^
of the vanishing hosts of the Con- ^
federacy because of the recent death h
in Vieksburg of General Stephen D. :i
Lee, commander-in-chief of the l<
"United Confederate Veterans. The yi
conclave, which began Tuesday in ^
the Magic City will be a time for t]
recounting past victories and defeats v
from which all the old sectional bit- P
terness has departed, and for last
greetings and partings between 1
many of the aged veterans who re- ^
ali/.e that on this occasion they may
answer to their last roll call on
earth. Many federal veterans were present
and fraternizing with boy^ V
in gray the enmity between "Yanks"
and "Robs", forgotten. The gray
line grows thinner and thinner, and
soon the last Old Confederate Vet
eran will cross over the river to V
rest under the shade of the trees
with Lee, Jackson and the host of
others who made the name of the
Southern soldier immortal, by their

The Taft interests have started a
Vice-Presidential boom for Cortelyno 1
who is said to have been Wall Street's '
choice for the Presidential nomina
tion. He is to act as a buffer be "
tween Taft and Wall Street in ex ?
tracting funds from the trust mag- A
nates to finance the campaign. It d
ia said this brilliant stroke originated 1
with President Roosevelt, the great *
and onlv trust "buster."
One of Taft's political managers j
says "from the wav things are now i
going, no name but Taft's will be '
presented to the convention." Sure.
What would be the use, after the j
Taft committee gets through "fix- '
ing" the delegates as they have been
doing at Chicago for some days. The ~"
Taft managers have found it cheap
er to count out the Foraker "nig 5j
gers" than it is to buy them, and so \
they have counted them out.
