It is quite easy to woo "tired nature's
sweet restorer, balmy sleep,"
according to Dr. McComb, who tells
us how, in an article in Harper's
Hazar. When we lay us down to
sleep all we have to do is to mut
tor nome such charm as: "Iif I
sleep, well; if I don't sleep I will
at least gain rest by keeping my
mind calm and my body relaxed.''
If this doesn't work, then wo are to
try the following, after composing
ourselves and forgetting all about
insomnia and fugitive dreams:
'There is no reason why I should
not sleep. Therefore, 1 can sleep.
Therefore, I will sleep. My mind
is at peace. Sleep is coining. I am
getting sleepy. 1 am about to sleep.
I am asleep."

Angry llccauso Two Friends Had
Been Shot by Ollieers, a I)eH|?erado
WouihIh Twenty-nlno Men,
lief ore a Bullet Through His Heart
Stops His Wild Itnmpugc.
Angered, It Is believed, because
two of bis friends bad recently been
shot by police officers in Monroe,
La., William S. Wade, a negro, a
few days ago, ran amuck on the principal
business street of Monroe, with
a double-barrel shotgun, shooting
first at every white man he saw and
then firing indiscriminately at every
object before him. The lire was returned
and the negro finally fell dead
with a bullet through his heart, but
not before 2 9 men, three of them
| members of his own race, had been
wounded.
Seriously wounded:
Hugh Bigger, police officer, shot
inabdomen and thigh; may die.
T. II. Grant, deputy sheriff, shot
In neck and breast; may die.
Simon Marks, merchant, Tuskcgoe,

Throo negroes, shot In face and
body.
Wade's body was publicly burned,
after it had been cut down from a
pole, on which it hung for an hour
or more after he was killed.
An investigation by the polico
showed that when Wade purchased
the shotgun and a box of shells, a
few minutes before he opened flre
011 the flrst man. that there was nothing
unusual in his manner or behavior.
Other negroes who wore with
him in the morning say that he had
not been drinking nor did he show
any evidence of having taken cocaine.
At the store where Wade bought
the box of shells the clerk says that
the negro asked for buckshot. He
gave him bird shot by mistake. This
mistake probably saved the lives of
a score or more of men.
The negro, after purchasing the
gun, took a position in the nrcade ,
of the Bank of Monroe, at Grant
and Desiard streets, the most prominent
corner in the city. His first
shot was directed at J. J. Jordan,
cashier of the bank, who was approaching
the building. He missed
ordan, but the load struck George
McCormick, who was close enough
to the negro to have his arm badly
shattered, in spite of the small shot.
The first shot brought many merchants
and clerks out on the street
and the negro then began to fire in
their direction. As fast as he discharged
his gun, he would step back
Into the arcade, reload, reappear and
renew his fire.
Patrolman Rigger, who had been
attracted by the shooting, ran toward
Wade and was shot down, but
arose and emptied his revolver at
the negro. The negro continued to
fire into the crowd, wounding many i
of them, when Mayor Forsythe, !
Manager Edward Stannard, of the
local Western Union office, and Raniel
McLeod came up and returned
the fire, Wade finally falling as a
result of the fatal wound in the i
heart.
After the body of the negro had
boon cut down from the polo on
which it was hung, a crowd of mor.
and boys proposed that It should ho
bur nod. It has already been
god to a nearby square and coal oil
poured over it when Mayor Forsytho
went to the square and demanded
that the body be turned over to the
authorities. He was courteously
waved aside, and the torch was applied.
In a few minutes nothing remained
but a heap of ashes and
bones.
Several hours later Tom Wilford,
a negro, was shot in a lunch room,
near the city market house. It is
not definitely know whether or not
this shootina formed anv Honnoi
the disorders earlier in the day.
Nobody knew anything after the
shooting, except that "somebdy" had
shot a negro. The wound is not
regarded as dangerous.

PLKNTY OF ROOZK IN AUGUSTA.
Cases of Drunkenness Are Rapidly
Increasing.
Tho Augusta Chronicle says the
records at tho police barracks in
that city show that for tho first
seven months of 1909 the number
of arrests for violations of tho four
hundred and sixtieth section, tho
majority of which are for drunkenness
and disorderly conduct, have
been almost as many as for the first
seven months of 1907, which was the
year before prohibition started.
The total number of arrests for
the first seven months of 1 909 were
1,844 while the total number for
the same period in 1907 were 1,882.
The total number of arrests for
the first seven months of 1908, which
was the first year of prohibition,
were 1,604. The number of arrests
shows an increase of each month
from tho first of January, 1908, until
the end of the year.
The record for July, 1908, until
tho end of the year was 3 29 arrests
while for the same month last
season it was 273, which shows a
large increase.
The figures in regard to the comparative
amounts of cases caused by
drunkenness before and since prohibition
were compiled by Orderly
Sergeant G. D. Buchanan, who is always
alert and anxious to see the
offect of the prohibition law.

"If you meet a girl, look into her

"Don't wait for her to say yea or
no. Take it for granted that she
is yours.
"Commence immediately to act as
if sho were your property.
"AH women like to feel as if they
belonged to a man.
"A girl will soon commence to
take your viewpoint of the affair.
"It ought not to take any man
more than 3 0 ruin ties to win a wife.
"If tho young woman's relatives
object just ignore them."
Tho views of Ilrig. (Ion. Thomas
I S. Hutchinson, of Tennessee, put into
practice won for him a bride and
the couple are spending their honey|
moon in Chicago. They were marI
ried there Saturday. The bride,
who is the daughter of tho late
Col. David W. Cheatham, of Clarksville,
Texas, announced the happy
event. She is well known in New
York, where she was graduated from
the Harden School for Young Women
a year ago.
Gen. Hutchinson, who has been
prominently mentioned as a candidate
for the (lovernnrshin nf T on ntta. I
see, is president of a bix construction
firm in Nashville, a member of the
civil service commission of that city,
chairman of the Democratic executive
committee and several other
semi-oftlcial bodies. During the
Spanish-American war he was colonel
of the 2nd Tennessee Volunteers.
He is said to be several times
a millionaire.
"It was this way," said the general,
"I attended tho Confederate
Reunion in Memphis in June. I was
on Governor Patterson's staff, and
my wife was maid of honor fruin
Texas.
The Governor presented me to
Miss Louis Cheatham a few minutes
after her arrival in Memphis. 1
looked into her eyes and saw that
I loved her. I pushed her out of
the crowd, told her that I loved
her and asked her to be my wife.
I didn't wait for her answer. I took
it for granted it was Yes ' The
whole transaction didn't take more
than 30 minutes. \\ hen we rejoined
Miss Cheatham's friends I acted as
if I owned her.
"Every man could win a wife if
he followed my example. The man
who hesitates in warfare or business
is lost. Why should he take months
in winning a wife? Thirty minutes
is long enough.
"After I had decided that Miss
Cheatham was to be my wife I went
immediately and told her mother.
Mrs. Cheatham was greatly surprised,
but I soon convinced her that I
meant business. She finally said
something about the wedding taking
place in October. I just ignored such
talk. Mrs. Cheatham and Louis returned
to Clarksville, Texas. I took
the next train. Never let the woman
of your choice get out of your sight.
Keep right after her all the time."
Then Gen. Hutchinson told of his
stay in Clurksville.
"I haunted the Cheatham home,"
he said. "I walked around like I
owned the place. Mrs. Cheatham
was adamant, however, and would
not consent to our marriage until
October. Finally the mother and
Louis left for Chicago. To be sure,
I followed, and by taking another
line, greeted them on their arrival
there. By this time Louis wanted
to get married right away, but still
her mother held out. Ix>uis told me
her guardian, M. L. Sims, was in
Denver. I went to that city and ini/lt
o/l K I * ^ T ? *
,.ww ...in iu Bft) iiouis and myself
married. He accepted. I took tho
next trnin for Chicago and told Mrs.
Cheatham that Mr. Sims would attend
the wedding of her daughter
and myself Saturday. She then
threw up both hands and quit."
"My advice to all young men is
that when they want a girl just go
and take her. If business principles
are applied to love there would be
more happy marriages. A good wife
is worth more than millions. Any
man would race his neck off to secure
a million dollars in a few days?
why not a wife?" Gen. Hutchinson
is 3 2 years old. His bride, who is
beautiful cannot be much more than
20.

aid Danger.
Wo aro In receipt of an Interesting
and Instructive leaflet on the
dangers of the house flj, Issued by
tho Merchants' Association's conimitteo
on pullutlon of tho waters
of New York, of which committee
J. IMerpont Morgan, the great bank
er, is a mmenibr. Declaring the
flies to be the most dangerous insects
we have, the committee "specifies"
as follows:
They walk ovor filthy places like
sewers and garbage eaus, and after
eating the glthy food which they
find there, they come into your houseand
walk on the food you eat, carrying
on their feet the tiny germs,
which live in filth just as you live
in a house. Those germs are not
only filthy and disgusting, but many
of them cause such diseases as typhoid
fever, cholera infantum and
summer complaint. When the flies
bring them from some dirty place
to your food or leave some of them
when they crawl on your face or
hands, you may swalow these germs
without knowing It and be taken ill
with one of theso diseases:
After emphsizing the importanceof
placing screens in doors and windows
to keep the flies out of the
house, it is pointed out how children
may help in the good work as
follows:
Children may he1 p to keep Hies
from swarming in and around houses,
and from carrying germs of sickness
from one person to another.
In the first place .thev *.hnnM
buy candy, fruit or other food which
1b loft in front of stores or anywhereelse
where Hies may feed and walk
on It. Flies lay their eggs chiefly
in stable manure, and If this is left
without screens or other covers to
keep the flies awa>, great numbers
wil b?- hatched in every stable. If
you know of stores where food is
not covered from flies, or of stablesthat
have swarms of them around,
get your father or mother to write
them, and the Hoard will make the
storekeepers or stabloe obey its rules.
Hut before you report other
peoplo for being careless and dirty
and so making it possibe for flies *
to become a nuisance be sure that
your own house ia clean, and that
no garbage-cane or boves are left
uncovered to nttract flies.
The committee's warnings and
suggestions are summed up in the
following rules to bo observed:
"Keep the flies awny from the
sick, especially those ill with contagious
diseases. Kill every fly that
strays into the sick room. His body
is covered with disease germs.
"Do not allow decaying material
of any sort to accumulate on or
near your premises. k
"All refuse which tends in any
way to fermentation, such as bedding.
straw, paper waste and vegetable
matter should be disposed
of or covered with lime or kerosene
oil.
"Screen all food.
>< is -??
i-vi-tf |J ill! receptacles for garbage
carefully covered and the cans claned
or sprinkled with oil or lime.
"Keep all stable manure In vault
or pit, screened or sprinkled with
lime, oil or other cheap preparation.
"Cover food after a meal; burn
or bury all table refuse.
"Screen all food exposed for sale.
"Screen all windows and doors,
especially the kitchen and dining
room.
"Don't forget, If you see flies,
their breeding place is in nearby
filth. It may be behind the door,
under the table or in the cuspidor.
"If there is no dirt and filth there
will be no flies.
"If there is a nuisance in the
neighborhood write at once to tk*
health department."
THE HIGH SCHOOL
Should l>e Graded for the Many and
Not the Few.
Eome mighty good suggestions on
the high school is offered by Dr. F.
L. Stevens in the Progressive Farmer,
of Raleigh, N. C. He very truly %
says:
The high school is for the pupil.
Its course should be so shaped as
to do the most good to the largest
umber of its pupils. The large
majority enter life, not the college,
and tho high school, agricultural
or not, should fit its pupils for tho
lives that they will lead.
The duty of flttiner tho ?
w ...v 1*5 W , J , Z,
or 10 por cent, by Bpecial training
for college entrance must fall upon
the few who are to enjoy the advanced
education, or the colleges must
adjust their entrance requirements C
to the existing status.
The training of ninety boys who
arc to go no further than the high
school, must not be dwarfed or misshaped
because of the ten or less who
may perhaps enter college. .
You cannot build a frame house
unless you have the rocks. ^
