THE RICHMOND PLANET Editor Mitchell's Long Journey. Echoes of the Yellow Fever.==The Goat Died.== Story of Duelling Oaks.==The French Quarter. The Land of the Sugar Cane. VOLUME XXVII, NO. 47. Editor Echoes of the Story of Duell The L (Continued From Last Week.) We visited the French or Creole quarter and saw the people who spoke French and who hold themselves aloof from the Negro population and who are not received in white society. They were the people whom the old French Creole of swarthy dark complexion had said, "They come from San Domingo. They Negroes. They marry, they get lighter, their children marry and they get lighter. They say they white, but I know them—the Negro. They put slabs on inside of tomb not on outside, but I know them when they children. I know their grandfathers were Negroes and they Negroes, but they say they white." A NEW USE FOR CONCRETE It was interesting to us. We saw many fine residences, and many of these French Creoles are wealthy. They live an exclusive life and have their own society. We were shown through some magnificent cemeteryes. In one of them we saw a large tree which had become hollow. The decayed portions had been removed and in its place concrete had been placed and the tree saved. THE DRIVER'S STORY All streets ultimately begin and end in Canal Street. We were listening to our colored driver as he told of conditions existing during the prevalence of the yellow fever. He stated that white people had the disease, but colored people, especially the darker ones were immune to it. The Italian colony had it and the people there would not admit physiclans except by force. THE GOAT DIED QUICKLY. An Italian's door was broken down and he was found ill with the disease. All efforts to persuade him to take medicine for the disease were unavailing. Finally through the influence of his wife he consented to take the medicine. The doctor left the pills. The ill man told his wife to give one to his goat. She did so and the next morning the goat was dead. It is needless to state that the Italian did not take the other pills. THOSE DUELLING OAKS The magnificence of the drives around New Orleans is one of its chief characteristics. The Spanish palms of tree like proportions attract the attention until the mind wearies and becomes accustomed to the sight. We saw the duelling oaks under which many a man had lost his life. We were told of a case of recent occurrence. It seemed that two white men had an altercation and they agreed to mite under the duelling oaks and fight it out with revolvers. They met and boarded a street car with their seconds. When the car reached the place, one of them jumped out and began shooting the other man before he could defend himself. The wounds were fatal and the actual duel as arranged, did not take place. The man was arrested. The result of his trial was not stated. He was said to be still in jail. The residence of Col. James Lewis was pointed out to us but we did not meet him. We did not have time to accept the hospitality of Mr. Robert E. Jones, the brilliant nestor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate. We were soon enroute to the Union Station where we boarded the train for the Far West. The Sunset R. R. has oil-burning locomotives. As this was a matter of interest to us, we soon stood by the side of one of these mighty monsters. This locomotive is built just like the coal-burning ones except that the tender holds oil and water instead of coal and water. Some of the tenders have an oil tank where the coal is usually kept while others have a tender cylindrical in shape. There are no cinders from the locomotive and they make good time. DR. GRAHAM'S TROUBLES Before leaving New Orleans, we COLORED FOLKS TROUBLES learned that Rev. Dr. W. F. Graham and his family were not favorably impressed with the city on account of the failure to secure comfortable quarters during his stay there. We met Mr. J. R. Yourele, Mr. Thomas Banks, Mr. H. E. Braden, Dr. J. E. Willis, dentist, Mr. Charles Eugene of New Orleans was the porter. The discussion of conditions in that section brought out the information that colored people were prospering in and about the cities, and money was being made by colored men on the ranches in the interior. PROSPEROUS COLORED MEN DRIVEN OUT The trouble is that the poor whites envy the Negroes and whenever they see them making progress they drive them away, causing them to lose the accumulations of a life time. There were instances where colored men owned valuable land and yet knowing that to remain and cultivate it would cost them their lives, they were forced to sell it for a mere song. We were now being carried through Louisiana and the parishes as the counties are called presented a strange scene to the man from Virginia. MUCH SUGAR CANE On every side of the track could be seen green sugar cane in abundance. We could also see the winding bayou as the rivers are called. We could now understand the peculiarity of these streams. They wind in and out and one is liable to cross the same stream a half dozen times within an hour. The oak trees along the banks mark the course of the stream. There was an abundance of marsh land. This is indeed a peculiar country. The thick underbrush and foliage, the plants, indigenous to the soil, the people and their habits all possessed a never ending source of interest to us. A POETIC REFERENCE We could now understand the full meaning of Mrs. Josie D. Heard's poem when she said: "We are coming; we are coming, From away in tangled swamp, Where the slimy reptile hid its pois onous head. Through the long night and the day We have heard the bloodhounds bay While the morass furnished us an humble bed." Yes, we were in the land of the swamp, in the land of the sugar cane, in the land of the bloodhound and in the land where human life was almost as cheap as the air we breath ed. It seemed that we would never leave Louisiana. Mr. Mitchell in San Antonio, Texas San Antonio, Texas, Sept. 30.—A grand reception and banquet were tendered Banker John Mitchell, Jr., President of the Mechanics' Savings Bank, Richmond, Va. last night by the citizens of this city. Mr. Mitchell was the guest of Prof. S. J. Sutton, Principal of the Douglass High School of this city. The affair was informal, but was heartily enjoyed by the guest of the evening. He was the centre of attraction and related many interesting anecdotes with reference to his career. He left this morning for Los Angeles, California to attend the thirty sixth annual session of the American Bankers' Association which meets October 3, 1910. He was delighted with his visit here. —Rev. W. H. Dean, former pastor of Leigh St. Methodist Church of this city but now stationed at Lynchburg, Va. will preach at Leigh Street M. E. Church Sunday night, 23d inst. His many friends and admirers in this city will be glad 'o learn this and will doubtless turn out en masse to hear one who was so popular while living amongst us. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1910. BROWNSVILLE PREJUDICE American Syndicate Co., St. Augustine, Fla. The One Way With the Negro. Elsewhere The Constitution publishes a remarkable communication from P. C. Parks, farm director of Clark University, in which he reports the results of a recent tour through the state, holding farm institutes for the benefit of workers. At many places he was accompanied by Chancellor D. C. Barrow, of the University of Georgia. Professor Parks stresses three factors often cited by The Constitution American Syndicate Co., St. A Brow and worthy of close study by those white southerners who strive to accomplish serious progress in the solution of the so-called Negro problem. 1. The fact that education that fits the Negro for occupations for which he is naturally and by opportunity qualified is equivalent to issuing an insurance policy against his ever becoming a criminal or a vagrant. 2. The necessity of representative white people lending their personal influence to the instruction and encouragement of the Negro. 3. The imperative need of measures in behalf of the great mass of Negroes in this State, the "croppers" upon whose efforts largely depends the prosperity of their white neighbors. There can be no question regarding the accuracy of each of Parks' premises. The inefficient Negro or the idle Negro is a possible criminal, needing only temptation or opportunity to become the actual criminal. Education that will fit him for tasks waiting his hands—and agriculture leads the list in that respect in the Southern states—minimizes or almost removes this risk. This is precisely what Luther Rosser meant when he said the other day, in discussing the difficulty of securing teachers for the Negro students in Atlanta, that "there are over 2,000 colored children in this city who are crowded out of school. In my mind, it is cheaper to pay teachers to instruct them than in inafter years to pay for police and jails to punish them." The so-called Negro "problem" and its remedy could not be stated in terms more cogent or truthful. Director Parks stresses also the value of representative white people actively cooperating with, encourag- ing and training the Negroes in efforts toward their own advancement. He cites his experience in Hart county, and shows the splendid effect upon progress when such prominent citizens as " Judge W. L. Hodges, Hon. A. J. McMullan and other distinguished men come and discuss these subjects in a frank and helpful way." This phase of Parks' recommendations, and the instruction of Negro institutes by representative white citizens, is by no means an innovation. Judge Hodges and Mr. McMullan, and thousands of other prominent white men who likewise extend practical encouragement to the Negroes by attending their meetings and advising them in person, are simply reviving the practices by which the ante-bellum patriarchal system made of the Negro an industrious and God-fearing individual. By and large, it is the type of Negro mentioned by Parks as anxious to own his own home, and to seek the counsel of white men, that are to-day offering the most hope of genuine advancement. The Negro who is trained to work with his hands, to become industrious to own property and to acquire a "stake in the country," has been presented with an insurance policy against vagrancy and its product—crime—Atlanta, Ga. Constitution. —Subscribe to The PLANET. BRO PRESIDENCE Augustine, Fla. nsville Will Not CLAIM RITUAL WAS PIRATED. Colored Elks Seek Adjustment of Suit was entered yesterday afternoon in the United States Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by James E. Mills, trustee, against J. Frank Wheaton, on behalf of the complaint as trustee for the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, a corporation incorporated under the laws of Ohio, and Benjamin Franklin Howard of Cincinnati, for the recovery of $15,000 damages. Mills and Wheaton are Negroes, the one residing in Norfolk and the other in New York City, and the order involved is the colored organization of that name. In the papers filed it is stated that Howard organized a grand lodge in 1889, with himself as grand exalted ruler for the time beginning until August, 1909, continuously. In that month the Grand Lodge met in Detroit and James E. Mills was elected to succeed Howard, who then agreed to turn over to the Grand Lodge, the ritual of the order, with all rights, titles and interest Howard could have by virtue of his copyright, for the sum of $5,000, the copyright having been issued to him June 12, 1902. Against Wheaton, by his agents, servants and followers, it is charged that he had the ritual reprinted and vended, which, it is alleged, constituted an infringement on the copyright. It is further charged that Wheaton, by his agents, servants and followers, has grossly misled the public, and is still doing so, and that the Grand Lodge has been rendered wholly unable to keep its contract with Howard, to whom the $5,000 might have been paid had it not been for the alleged interference. The complainant prays for $15,000 damages, and, on failure to prove the alleged damage through concealment of fact by the defendant, he prays special damages for the benefit of its beneficiaries in the sum of $5,000. The complainant prays for a subpoena to be issued for Wheaton and for John T. Taylor of 728 North Second Street, and asks further that the defendant's agents, servants and followers be preliminarily enjoined and restrained from the further use of the alleged pirated ritual, or any words, phrases or sentences thereof. —Times-Dispatch.

CHURCH Located at Cor. 5th and Jackson Sts. RICHMOND, VA. Weekly News Column. REV. W. F. GRAHAM, D. D., Pastor, Residence: 108 E. Leigh St., Richmond, Va. J. HENRY CRUTCHFIELD, Editor, Office: 1215 E. Broad St., Richmond, Va. There was a lovely time at the Fifth Street Baptist Church last Sunday. Sunday morning was indeed a love feast. We can't recall the day when everybody was carried to such a high spiritual pitch as they were last Sunday morning. Pastor Rev. Dr. W. F. Graham was far beyond his usual manner; a new spirit or we might say the Holy Ghost took the entire possession of him seemingly. We don't think the Doctor himself realized the circumstances and surroundings. The Doctor's subject was, "Lo, I am with thee always, even to the end of the world," a subject he had often preached, but not as he did last Sunday morning. The sermon was indeed heartfelt. If such services as this one were preached in our church every Sunday and in the other churches likewise, we don't think sinners could stand out in open rebellion. There would be no need of so many restraining laws to which all of our churches resort. "If I be lifted up, I'll draw all men unto me," is a phrase and proposition worthy of the most earnest consideration of all Christians especially the ministry. While civilization under the influence of Christianity, has done much for humanity, we feel that only half of the good has been accomplished, which would have been accomplished by it, if in all of our ways we had acknowledged God. The Christians of our country can revolutionize government and everything else need to be revolutionized if they will discharge their duty according to the commandment of Christ. Prayerfully and faithfully ask, and it shall be given, seek and we shall find and knock and the door of good and prosperity shall be opened unto us. Sunday night Rev. E. D. McCreary of the Union University preached a good sermon, which was enjoyed by all. Dr. W. F. Graham was at the Second Baptist Church, South Richmond, Va., where he preached for the Rev. Dr. D. Webster Davis. The Second Baptist Church is celebrating its anniversary. The Fifth Street Baptist Church Choir did fairly well Sunday morning. The solo of Nelson G. Booker was enjoyed by the entire congregation. * * * (Sunday School is still improving. The new resolve has done much good. Officers and teachers are becoming more and more zealous and the scholars are following in their footsteps. If the officers and teachers carry out their resolve to meet at 9:30, the parents or children say by their actions, their children shall meet them. They realize that the children are to take the places of the teachers and officers sometime in the future. Our motto text continues to be "Punctuality." It was carried out promptly Sunday morning. Supt. Prof. B. H. Peyton opened the school promptly at the time. Another feature incidental to our motto text is being discussed and will be operated if necessary. Dr. Johnson of Alexandria, Va. was present and delivered a fine talk to the school, which was well received. Mr. Matthew Doyle favored the school with one of his sweet solos. Be on time Sunday morning.—Estelle D. Ward.) The Prayer Services last Wednesday night were fairly good. The Church has resolved to make this department better in every way. The younger members are thinking along the same line. Usually the young element of the church don't go to Prayer Meetings. They have heretofore given it over almost entirely to those in advanced years, but we think by a little exertion they can be gotten out. They can do much in this respect. Come out Wednesday night on time. --- B. Y. P. U. Meeting nights, Friday night of each and every week. These meetings will be of untold good. Come out on time Friday night. President John W. Howard desires to have you come on time. Don't forget Rally Sunday. Let everybody do his duty. We are pleased to note the marriage of Asst. Superintendent R. H. Fauntleroy and Miss Annie E. Morris, which will take place Thursday morning. October 27, 1910. PRICE, FIVE CENTS Hyacinth Circle Meets Hyacinth Circle meet Friday evening, October 14th at the residence of Mrs. W. P.

I should say, gasped Boyd to the reporter. "No, sir. Alton Clydei He was pretty talkative the night I saw him." The reporter laughed mea- ly. "Drunk, do you mean?" "Oh, not exactly drunk but pretty wet. He knew what he was saying, however. Can't you give me something more?" "Nothing." Boyd hurried to his hotel, a prey to mingled anger and contention. So Fraser had told the truth, after all, and with a kind of sullied jersey had chosen, to remain under a cloud himself rather than inform on a friend. It was quite in keeping with the fellow's po- surement. As it happened, Boyd found the two men together and lost no time in acquiring them with his discovery. "I come to apologize to you," he said to Fraser, who grinned broadly and was acted with a sudden abas- ment which stilled his tongue. Emer- son turned to Clyde. "Why did you permit me to do this injustice?" "I-I didn't mean to give out any secrets—I don't remember doing it." Alton apologized lamely. "You know I can't drink much. I don't remember a thing about it. honestly." Boyd regarded him coldly, but the young man seemed so quiet he looked so weak, so pitifully inconvenient, that the other lacked heart to gastlase him. It requires resistance to develop heat, and against the absence of character it is impossible to create any sort of emotion: "When you got drunk that night you not only worked a great hardship on all of us, but afterward you allowed me to misjudge a very faithful man," declared Boyd. "If you can't keep a gloss month and do as you are told you can't be a good man." "Don't climb any higher." admonished "Fingerticks." Fraser. "It's all nuffed up now. I'll lay you 8 to 1 you don't make another break of the kind." "No; I was so com-posed plettely pickled that I forgot I even spoke about the salmon cannibal business. I'll break my corkscrew and seal my mask, and from this moment until we come out next fall the demon rum and I are divorced. Is that good news?" "Everything is a joke to you, isn't it?" said Boyd. "If this trip doesn't make a man of you, you'll never grow up." As if Hillard's conversion had marked the landing point of their lack, the partnership now entered upon a period of almost uninterrupted success. Boyd signed his charter, securing a tramp stenner then discharging at Tacoma; Bait closed his contracts for Chinese labor, and the scattered carolls of material which had been lost on route or mysteriously laid out on sidings began to come in as if of their own accord. A brigade of orientals and a miniature army of fishermen had appeared as if by magic and were quartered in the lower part of the city awaiting shipment. At the dock one throbbing April evening the Bedford-Castle berthed,_ready to receive her cargo, and the two men made their way toward their hotel, weary, but glowing what the grateful sense of an arduous duty well performed. The following morning would find the wharf awarming with stairpores and echoing to the battle of trucks, the clank of bolts and the shrill whistles of the signalism. "Looks like they couldn't stop us now," said Balk. "It does," agreed Emerson. "We ought to clear in four days—that'll be the 15th." "It snells like an early spring, too," the fisherman observed, sniffing the air. "If it well be in Kalkiv the first week in May." "I'm off to tell Cherry," said Boyd. His course took him past Hilliard's bank, and when abreast of it he nearly collided with a man who came hurrying forth. In the well groomed, fiery haired, plump figured, man Emerson recognized the manager of the North American Packer"s association. "Good evening, Mr. Marsh." Marsh whirled about. "Eh? All Why, yes, it's Emerson." Marsh informed Boyd of the anger of Hilliard's father at his canning enterprise and also that Hilliard and Mr. Wayland were to visit Kalvik on a yachting tour. Emerson was great on the water, and he realized that Marsh had arrived on the spot because Hilliard had granted his opponents their-needed loan. The man separated. The next morning Hat'fushed in on Emerson, with news that the laborers loading the Bedford Castle had gone on a strike because the captain, Pesay, rightly refused a demand of $2,000 by the union. "It's Marsh again," said Big George. "Yes," Emerson answered; "It's a holdup pure and simple." A look of intense anxiety came into his eyes. When Boyd returned some two hours later, his dock saved save for Big George, who prized watchfully about the freight planes. "Well, did you fix it up?" the man inquired. "No," exclaimed Boyd. "It's a rank frame-up, and I refused to be bled." "Good for you." There are some things a fellow manhood won't stand for. I'll carry that freight apart, with my own hands, until the union at the bidding of Willie Marsh. "Hey, will you let me load this ship if I have money?" Author of "The Spoilers" and "The Barrier" HARPER & BROTHERS Ball's thick lips drew back from his yellow teeth in that smile which Emerson had come to recognize as a harbinger of the violent acts that rejoiced his fictional soul. "Listen," said he, with a chuckle. "Down the street youonder I got a hundred fishermen. Half of them are drunk at this minute and the rest are half drunk." "Then they are of no use to us." "I don't reckon you over seen a herd of Kalvik fishermen out of a job, did you? Walk, they'd have two things they know, fishing and fighting, and this isn't the fishing season. When you put up the residence and stuff and cotton in its cars, because the only thing that is strong enough to stand between a uniform and a fisherman is a hill." "Can you induce them to work?" "I can. All I'm afraid of is that I can't induce them to quit. They're liable to put his freight aboard the Bedford Castle and then pull down the dock in a spirit of playfulness and Captain Peau's table. There aren't no convolution of nature that's equal to a gang of idle fishermen." "Well, it will take me all night to round them up, and I'll have to lick four or five, but there ought to be a dozen or two on hand in the morning." George cast a roaring eye over the warehouse from the heavy planking underfoot to the wide spanning rafters above. "Yes," he concluded, "I don't see nothing breakable, so I guess it safe." "Would you like me to go with you?" The following morning, true to his word, the big fellow walked into the warehouse followed by a score or more of burly fishermen. Balt bore signs of strife. The big man's lips were cut, while back of one ear a knot had sprung up overnight like a fungus. They fell to work quickly, stripping themselves to their undershrirts; they manned the hoists, seized trucks and balo books and began their tasks with a thoroughly nonunion energy. Some of them were still so drunk that they staggered, their awkwardness affording huge sport to their companions, their indistinction, they were surprisingly capable. George sought out Bord and proudly inquired: "What do you think of them, eh?" "They are splendid. But where are the others?" "Well, there are two or three that won't be able to get around at all." He meditatively stroked the knuckles of his right hand, which were badly bruised. "But the balance will be here tomorrow. These are just the gaudest mannered ones—the family then, you might any. The others will show up gradual." The work had not continued many hours before a stranger made his way to the desk and he met to argue with the first sassman he met. Boyd, approaching him, demanded: "What do you want?" "Nothing," said the newsman. "Then get out." "What for? I'm just talking to this man." "Will you go?" "Say, you can't load that cargo this way," the man began threateningly. "And you can't make me go!" At which Emerson selted him by the collar and quickly disproved, the assertion, to the great delight of the fathom. He thrust him out into the street. "I'm a union man, and you can't load that ship with 'scabs.' The stranger aware as he slunk off. The first actual violence, however, occurred when the fisherman knocked off for the noon hour. Boyd called up the police department, then summoned difficulty that the monotonous crew fought its way back to resume work at 1 o'clock. During the afternoon the strikers made several attempts to enter the dock shed, and it required a firm stand by the guards to restrain them. The next morning found the prononion men out in such force that they were divided into a night and a day crow, half of them being sent back to report later, while among the mountains of freight the work went forward faster than ever. But in time the city awoke to the realization that a serious conflict was in progress. The handful of fishermen, outnumbered twenty to one and guarded only by a thin line of pickets, became a center of general interest. That body capped the man fit the gray suit among the strikers and pointed him out to his three companions. Clyde and Fraer having joined him and George in a spirit of curiosity. Late in the afternoon, without a moment's warning, the strikers rushed in a body, bearing down the guards like reeds. Epsonson and his companions found themselves carried away before the onslaught like chips in the surft, then sucked into a melathem where the first duty was self-preservation. Boyd succeeded in keeping, his footing and eventually, fought his way to a backing of, created, machinery, where, he stopped and slipped, a claot loop. Then, laying about, him with this weapon, he clear- of a space. "At the first alarm the tuberburus had armed themselves with bare books and bridges and for a time worked havoc among their assailants. "Being Clyde in a helpless condition, Emerson shouted. "Coin on son. I'll help you aboard the ship." He found a hardwood club beneath his feet and with it cleaned a pathway for Clyde and himself. "He suddenly spied the man in the array that climbed upon one of the frightened men, nibbling the crowd. The man recognized Emerson and pointed him out. The next instant Bord saw him approaching, followed by several others. Then, though Bord fell back farther, the others rushed in and he found himself hard beset. What happened thereafter neither he nor Alon Clyde, who was half dazed to begin with, ever clearly remembered. Before he had recognized the personal nature of the assault Euer found himself engaged in a furious hand to hand struggle. Then a sudden blackness swallowed him up, after which he found himself upon his knees, his arms loosely encircling a pair of legs. As he struggled upward something amoeba hit him, kicking the force and he went to his knees. He could only raise his shoulder and fling as arm weakly above his head in anticipation of the crushing blow he HE COULD ONLY FLING AN ARM WEAKLY ABOVE HIS HEAD. thought was coming. But it did not descent. Instead he heard a gunshot. A weight sank across his calves. Then, with a final effort, he pulled himself free and staggered to his feet. his head roiling, his knees sagging. He saw a man figure facing him and lingered at it to bring up in the arms of "Fingerless" Fraser "Boy turned and behold the body of a man stretched face downward on the floor. Beyond the fellow in the gray suit was disappearing into the crowd. Then he saw a gleam of blue metal in Fraser's heads. "Give me that gun!" he panted. "I may need it myself, and I ain't got but the one hee. Let's get Clyde out of here." Fraser lifted the young clubman, who was huddled in a formless heap as if he had fallen from a great height, and together the two dragged him toward the Bedford Castle. That night under glaring headlines the evening papers told the story, reporting a fisherman fatally hurt, one striker dead of a gunshot wound and many others injured. CHAPTER XII. HALF mile from Captain Pease's船 the ship the rival company tenders were loading rapidly with union labor. The next day Emerson and Clydo drove down the ship, loading it into carriage, experiencing no annoyance beyond some passengers and insults as they passed through the picket line. Bord and barely seen them comfortably established on board when up the ship's gangway came "Finglerose". Fraser radiantly attired, three heavily indented hotel porters grunting on at the thick waisted cigar between his teeth. "Are you going with us?" Boyd inquired. "Sure." "See herel. In life one long succession of surprise parties with you?" "Why, I've ignored on this right slong." "But the ship is jammed now. There is no room." "Oh, I fixed that up long ago. I am going to break with the award." "In the world didn't you let us know you were coming?" "Say, don't kid yourself. You know I couldn't stay behind." Fresner blew a cloud of smoke stifly. "I never start anything I can't finish. I keep telling you, and I'm going to put this deal through now that I've got it started." With a half embarrassed laugh and a complete change of manner, she laid his hand upon Boyd's shoulder, saying: "Fal, I didn't much good to myself or anybody else, but I like you and I want to stick around. Maybe I'll come in useful yet—you can call." Emerson had never glimped this side of the man's nature, and it rather surprised him. "From what he told me I don't think they knew you, you never complained with them, they waited to plant your pot, when they come of me to buy a car they can buy," he said. "Something hard for me, simply I have to create it in plain white. Through the door of the office that opened up, the dock props they behold the green nood almost entirely clean. Save for a few tons of freight at which Big Georgetown men were working, it was an unrestricted as a lawn, and although it was nearly the size of a city block, it afforded no more means of concealment than old the little office, itself, with its glass doors, its counter, and its long dead, at the father end of which a bill clerk was poring over his talk. They saw at the foot of the gangway men talking, with Big George. They saw at the front strangers casually to the office, whence he had seen Boyd disappearing a few moments before, and turn back to his storedores. Then they saw the plain clothes men approaching. "Heter. Glimps your coat and hat, quick!" cradles Fraser in a low voice, his eyes blazing at a sudden thought. He stripped his own garments from his back with fervish haste. "Put mine on. There! I'll stall for you. When they grab me, take it on the run. Understand." "That won't do. Everybody knows me." Boyd cast an apprehensive glance at the arched back of the bill clerk, but Fraser, quick of resource in such a situation, forced him swiftly to change a change, saying: "Nit. It isn't out. Stand here, see." He indicated a position beside the rear door. "I'll step out the other way where they can see me," he continued, pointing to the wagon way at the right. "Savvy? When they grab me you beat it and don't wait for nothing." "But you— Already they could hear the footsteps of the officers. "I'll take a chance. Goodbye." There was no time even for a handshake. Fraser stepped swiftly to the door, then strolled quietly out into the view of the two men, who an instant later accepted him. "What's your secret?" The adventure answered brusquely, "Yes, but I can't tell you now." "You are under arrest, Mr. Emerson." Boyd waited to hear no more. The glass door swung open noiselessly under his hand, and he stepped out just as the bill clerk looked up from his work, staring out through the other entrance. "Fingering." Fraser's voice was louder now, as if for a signal. "Arrest me? What do you mean? Get out of my way." "You'd better come precocely." Boyd heard a sharp exclamation—"Get him, Bill!" and then the sound of men strung. He ran, followed by a root from the strikers, in whose full view Prince's encounter with the plain clothes man was taking place. A backward glance showed him that he had drawn his pursuers to the street. Searcely had Boyd reached Big George when a wing of the besieging army swept in through the unguarded entrance and down the dock like an avalanche, leaving behind them the battling officers and the hungry pack clamoring for the prisoner. "Drop that freight and get aboard the best way you can!" Boyd yelled at the fishermen, and, with a bound, was taken to Captain Penley on the bridge: "Here you connel Cast off, for God's sake!" The dozen men who had been slinging freight on the dock hastened up the ganglank or climbed the fenders, while the signalman clung to the lifting tackle and, at the piping cry of his whistle, was swung aloft out of the very arms of the rollers. Above, on the flying bridge, Captain Peacley was bellowing orders. At last the Bedford Castle was under way. Even after they were miles down the sound Boyd remained at his post, sweeping the waters natern in an unnoxious search for some swift barbercraft, the appearance of which would signal that his escape had been discovered. "I won't feel safe until we are part Port Townsend," he confessed to Cherry, who maintained a position at his side. "The police can wire on from Sentite to stop us and take me off at that point." "If they find out their mistake." "They must have found it out long ago. That's why I've got Peasley forcing this old tub. She's doing 10 knots, and that's a breakback speed for her. Once were through the straits I'll be satisfied." "What will happen to Fraser?" she queried. "Nothing serious, I am sure. You see, they wanted me and nobody else. Once they had they have the wrong man I rather belter they will free him in disguise." A moment later he went on: "Just the same, they made me feel depressed and to leave him. I—wouldn't desert a comrade for anything if the choice lay with me." "You did quite right." Cherry warmly assured him. "You see, I am not working for myself. I am doing this for another." It was the girl's turn to sigh softly, while the eyes she turned toward the west were strangely sad and dreamy. "Two boots, more," he told her as the ship's belfast, sounded, "then I can eat and sleep and sing." Captain Peasley was pacing the bridge when later they breathed the glaze of Port Townsend and saw in the distance she fashing starlightly of the forts that guard the shrubs. They saw him stop suddenly and raise his night glances. Boyd laid his hand on Cherry's arm. Precisely the captain crossed to them and said: The two boats were drawn together rapidly and soon there, out the bridge heart the palm but, increasing pattier of a gasoline exhaust. Carrying the With an explanation of impatience, the commanding officer stepped to the telegraph, but Emerson forestall him. "Walt. They're after me, captain; it the Port Townsend police, and if you let them aboard they'll take me on." The stupper, the stupper bellowed: "Who you?" "Police!" "What did I tell you?" cried Emerson. "What do you want?" "One of your passengers—Emerson Heave to. You're passing us." "That's bloody hard luck, Mr. Emerson; I can't help myself," the captain declared. But again Boyd blocked him as he stared for the telegraph. "I won't stand it, sir. It's a conspiracy to ruin me." "But, my dear young man—" "Don't touch that instrument!" "I launch a sound of growing rehearsal and start a murmur of voices roar, from somewhere in the darkness of the deck beneath." "Stand aside!" Pesley ordered grudely. But the other held his ground, saying quietly: "I warn you, I am desperate." "Shall I stop her, sir?" the quartermaster asked from the shadows of the wheelhouse. "Not" Emerson emmanded sharply, and in the glow from the binnacle light-they saw he saw had drawn his revolver, while on the instant up from the vold beneath heaved the invasive figure of Big George Balt, a behemoth, and until dismounting than ever in the dim light. He wrenched open the door and with one sweep of his hatty paw sung the helmman from his post, painting. "Keep her going, cap, or I'll run them down." The launch was commanded of them now and skimming along so close that his hair have saved a dishevel aboard of her. The appurtened of the craft alongside was now punctured by a volley of curses. Captain Peaster did all the navigating in person, but eventually they were hemmed in so closely that for a day and a night they could do nothing but drift with the pack. In time, however, the winds opened a crevice through which they retreated to follow the outer limits further eastward until one storm opened and Late one evening they discerned smoke on the hopper, and the next morning's light showed a three masted steamship fast in the lee a few miles to the westward. "That's the Jullet." Big George informed his companions, "one of the North American Packers' association tenders." "She was loading when we left Seattle," Boyd remarked. "It is Willis Marsil's ship, so he must be aboard, supplemented by Chef." "She is well equipped and built for this business. If we don't look out he'll beat us in after pill." "What good will that do him?" Clyde questioned. "The fish don't bite—I mean run-for sixty days yet." At *sunday* they anchored in the wide estuary of the Kelvik river, the noise of the breaking alley that for months had lain like a another upon the port. CHAPTER XII BYER did mon have more willing hands to do their bidding than did Boyd and George, and when a week later the Jailster with Willis Marsh on board, chase to anchor the bank hoods were up and pegged "while the' new life had come a beehive of activities. The japuchi of or the Kavit' Nite is several milies, vilda, yer it hobbing in the ditch, and the ditch is a ditch draft alphe, the roof of the harbor being undertaken with mind and tide and tide he given which none but small boats may carry, and was the committee are distributed and down the stream for a considerable distance it is necessary to transport all supplies to and from the ships by means of tugs and lighters. Owing to the narrowness of the channel the jujit came to the sea Castle. To Marach, already furtions at the trick the ice had played him, this forced proximity to his rival brought home with added irony the fact that he had been forestaled, while it emphasized his knowledge that henceforth the conflict would be carried on at closer quarters. It would be a contest between two men, both determined to win by fair means or soul. It was on the afternoon following his arrival that Marach after a tour of inspection landed from his launch and strolled up to—where Boryd amphibian teodalp, if it be cool, and found, as on their last meeting, that his own bearing was reflected exactly in that of Boryd. "I see you have a number of my old fisherman," Marsh observed. "Yes; we were fortunate." "You are very lucky." "Indeed! How?" "Well, don't you think you were lucky to beat that stucco?" "Don't you always stucco jerk. However, I do consider myself fortunate in escaping at the last moment," Boyd laughed cainly. "By the way, what happened to the man they mistook for me?" "Let him go. I believe. I didn't pay much attention to the matter. I rather think you will have a lot to explain one of these days," he said, with deliberate unence. Cases of salmon aboard the Bodford Castle I will explain anything. Meanwhile the police may go to the devil." "You got away from Seattle, but there is a commissioner at Dutch Harbor, also a deputy marshal, who may have better success with a warrant than those policemen but. The other man is the angry tremor in his voice, and the other, perceiving it, replied in a manner designed to infuse him still more: "Yes, I have heard of those officers. I understand they are both in your employ." "What!" "I hear you have bought them." "Do you mean to insult me?" "I don't mean to insult anything. Listen! We are where we can talk plainly, Marsh, and I am tired of all this subterfuge. You did what you could to stop me, you even tried to have me killed!" "You dare to" "But I guess it never occurred to you that I may be just as desperate as you are. I broke through in spite of you, and I'm on the job. If you want to cry quite, I'm willing, and I won't be haked, and if any of your bired impulses try to take me before I catch it, I'll put you away. Understand?" William Marsh recalled involuntarily. "You are insane," he cried. "Am I?" Emerson laughed harshly, "Well, I'm just crazy enough to do what I ask. Don't come back here until I send for you. Something might fall on you." "Then it is to be war, eh?" "Suit yourself." Boyd polished to the shore. As Marsh made his way to the waters' edge he stumbled like a blind man; his lips were bleeding where his small, sharp teeth had bitten them and he painted an unsturbed woman. During the next fortnight the sailing ships began to assemble, standing in under a great spread of canvas to berth close alongside the two steamships. On the morning after the arrival of the last ship Emerson and his companions were treated to a genuine surprise. Cherry had come down to the site as usual—she could not let a day go by without visiting the place—and Clyde after a tardy breakfast had just come ashore. They were watching Big George direct the launching of a snow when all of a sudden they heard a fox voice behind them cry cheerfully: "Hello, white folklore! Here we are all together again." They turned to behold a villainous looking man beaming benignly upon them. He was dirty, his clothes were in rags, and through a riotous bristle of board that hid his tilt features a mandy patch showed on either check, it was undeniably "Fingerless" Fraser, but how changed, how altered, from that radiant flower of indulence they held, to a palid, emcelled and bedraggled. "Fraser" they cried in chorus, then fell upon him noisily. Fraser drew himself up with infused dignity, then spoke in dramatic accents. "I worked my way!" "How? Where?" "On that bloody wind jammer." "But the police" queried Boyd. "Oh. I squared them mary. It's you they want. Yes, sir, I worked. I'm a scutery mind." "Tell us about it," urged Cherry. "What's the use?" he demanded, with a glare at Clyde. "That bonehead wouldn't understand." "Go ahead," Bird cooed, with twitching lips. "You look as if you had worked, and worked hard." "Woll, there isn't any Pilgrim running to this resort, so I slow 'n away on a coal burner, but somebody dags me. Then I try to hire-out as a fisherman, but I ally there with the gang talk and my stuff-drug, so, I ask it for a bide-away on the Blessed Lab. and for a moniker.

Anthrop, I stand it as long as I can, then I dig my-way up to 'n latch and mow like a house cat. it seems they wore from the start, and bathed this down on pimping and hid.

GUY CHRIED IN CHORUS. stranger. Oh, no! They permit me to work my way. The scouten has quit, see? So they promote me to his job. "You deserved this morning, eh?" "I did. I want a hale and some clean clothes and a whole lot of sleep." He was granted his desires. The Bedford Gaillie having discharged her cargo stained away to return in August. The middle of June brought the first king salmon, scouts sent on ahead of the "stockyears." but Bord made no effort to take advantage of this run, laboring manfully to prepare for the advance of the main army, that terrific bord that was soon to come from the sea. The deputy officer made no ruin him. Once the run proper started there would be no more opportunity for building or for setting up machinery. He must be ready and writing by the first of July. As for Boyd the fever in his reins mounted daily as he saw his dream assuring concrete form. Always he found Cherry at his shoulder, unobtrusive and silent for the most part yet intensely observant and keenly alive to every action. She seemed to have the faculty of divination, knowing when to be silent and when to join her mood with his, and she gave him valuable help, for she possessed a practical mind. One day when their preparations were nearly completed a foreman came to Boyd and said exertedly: "Boyd I'd like you to look at the fronds right away." "Whady up?" "I don't know, but something is wrong." A hurried examination showed the machines to be enclosing crippled; certain parts were entirely missing while others were broken. The iron Chukk. or mechanical cleaner, is perhaps the most ingenious of the many labor saving devices used in the salmon fisheries. It is an awkward tool, yet very effective contrivance of involving kelp and conveyors which soakes the fall whole and it cleans it, clipped, cut and ready for use. With spikes of doctorly detail, the two eyes of twenty lightning like butchers. Without the aig of those iron Chinks Boyd know that his fish would spoil before they could be handled. He hastened straightway to George Balt. A half hour's run down the boy and he clambers from his launch to the pilot driver, amid the confusion and noise, he made known his tilting. The big fellow's cannibals imazed him. "What are you going to do now?" "Butcher by hand," told the fisherman. "But how? That takes skilled labor—lots of it." George grinned. "I'm too old a bird to be caught like this. I figured on accidents from the start, and when I lured my Chinamen I included a crew, of cutters. Willis Marsh will have to try again." CHAPTER XIV. HILE they were talking a, tugboat towing a pilo driver cam- into view. Boyd asked the meaning of its presence in this part of the river. "I don't know," answered Big George, staring intently. "Yonder lookin' like another one behind it, with a raft of piles." I thought all the company traw- pled to me. "Go," he did. I can't toll what they're up to." A half four later, when the new Botella had, come to anchor a short distance below, Emerson's companion began to swam. "I might have known it." "What?"

FASHIONS FOR FALL. Cheviot and Serge to Predominate For Cool Days. The Various Colors and Weaves Lend Themselves For Adoption to Street, House and Busi- The latest advises from the various centers of fashion in london that sleeve and chevron are the materials that told fair to occupy first place in the long list of autumn fabrics. They are wide, cutting to advantage, and the variety of colors and weaves is worthy of favorable consideration. In Paris these dresses that are built on shirt wrist suit lines will be worn until November without a coat with perhaps black satin scarfs to protect the chest and throats of the wearers. Bosshes the street duly, these dresses are attractive in the house place of business. What more can woman wish? There is a vogue for striped materials. These are ```markdown ``` frequently combined with bands. Buttons, soutache and black phingles are generally used as trimming. The illustration shows a clever combination of black serge stitched with bright blue and plain blue serge. It shows the best lines of the coming fall styles and gives excellent opportunity to use two remnants of comparatively short length. You will notice the extended yoke with the bodice and sleeves in one piece. A modified chemisette of all over face gives freshness at the neck. Underleaves are of the same. This yoke is stitched on its upper and lower edges with a double row of silk. The deep hem of blue comes above the knees, an excellent depth for tall women. The dress is fitted with a plain stitched belt fastened under a blue enameled buckle. Elephant gray with a black plin stripe is also made very simply. Black ants in bands outline the square yoke and the three-quarter sleeves, while white ant buttons are used at the front and the shoulder line. A belt of satin is used and can be changed for leather ones if you wish. A broad band of serge with the stripes running horizontally is used to give the popular tunic line. Yet fine, tucked linen and lace form the gulpe. And now for it. What do you think of cerise serge? It is the latest thing in France, but our American slaters will in all probability soften down the tone with their sensible conservatism and select one of the old rose shades. Southeast braid of the same color can be placed in rows across the frock. An extended line of trimming. whether of lace, embroidery or brind, is one of the accepted notes, so do not forget it, please. A very shallow yoke of ceru lace with black satin binding makes a good effect. The sleeves also are treated to the touch of black against the lace undercuts. Black on the skirt, with two rows of bridal, is efficient on a brightly colored gown. A patent leather belt is worn with the dress. For one toed dress, of good lines the following may please. Over a yoke of ticked latex the upper line of a prune colored frock is modified in a double point that gives the favorite "bib" that is seen on many new models. Bands of the same cloth are used at the yoke and on cuffs and tunel. A panel effect is given at its front and back. Indeed, this skirt can be built on a gored skirt pattern, the strapless band at the lower part of the skirt being put on and glitched. protect your computer with software that is built into the environment compatible—built on the Linux blossom ideas, with fullness at the body for smaller features. A squareook is ok. lined with braid and stitching and buttons at one side can embellish to give the easiest and most effective way of ornamenting this suit. THE ART OF EMBROIDERING. Many Beginners Puzzled by Introclics of Various Bitches to Be Applied For Creation of Different Patterns. Beginners in embroidery are frequently puzzled about three stitches common in all varieties of work. These three are satin, Kensington and stem stitch. We will, therefore, not ourselves the task of unraveling the mysteries of these three forms of embroidery. Nothing is harder than to give a clear idea in writing of how to make an embroidery stitch, but you will understand if you attend carefully and follow directions slowly and exactly. First, the satin stitch. This is used to cover solid forms, such as hars, narrow leaves or the petals of conventionalized flowers. It does not admit of shading and cannot be used to gain color effects. It is best to use a hoop when working this stitch, as this keeps the work straight and even. Run the thread through the linen as for long and short stitch and bring the needle up at the line which makes the left hand edge of your drawn form. The stitches are laid closely and exactly parallel the entire length of the pattern. They may be straight of oblique, but not both, the direction must continue the same throughout. Carry the thread across then and put the needle dwn through the right hand side. Bring it up again close to the first stitch on the other side and continue in this manner until the form is completely covered. Leaves are often embroidered in two parts in satin stitch, one side shading to the right, the other to the left. The middle line where the stitches meet must be absolutely straight or the effect is spelled. Next the Kensington, the most useful of outfitting stitches. The hoops are not needed for this, the work being done in the hand. Begin at the point nearest you bringing the needle up exactly on the outline, and take a stitch a little in advance. Bring the needle up again as nearly as possible at the same point and continue as before. The upper stitch should be three times as long as the under, but both must be extremely short. Of course the length of the stitch depends largely upon the kind of work you are doing. Finally the stem stitch an outline stitch which gives an effect of greater width than does the Kensington. It consists of a closely set row of short stitches placed in a slimming direction within the outline. It may be worked without a frame. Bring the needle up from beneath just within the outline if on a leaf pattern, then at the stem insert the point of the needle a little above, on the outline, so that the stitch shunts inward, and bring it up again within the line, a little above the first stitch. Continue as before all around the outline, and you may be sure that the result will be offensive and beautiful. A DAINTY APRON. There could be no more dainty and attractive gift for the girl who loves pretty things than this little embroidered apron. It would be especially useful for "n shower gift" for the bride, to be, who would surely count it one of the treasures of her lavender scented linen chest To fashion this effective ruffle about one and one-third yards of finest lawn are required. This will make the apron and allow for the pocket and bib, which are both made in the shape of enormous flossions. Six yards of valenciennes lace will make the daisy frilling, which should be carefully whipped to the buttonholes edges of the apron. For the strings three yards of ribbon are required. This should match or harmonize with the color scheme of the design. The result when finished will be most satisfactory. Drying Lace Collars. After lace collars and jabots have begin washed stretch them out on a lappard, covered with a towel if necessary, and stick pins into the wood all along the edge of the lace, stretching well as you go until there is a close outline of pins. In a few hours the lace will be dry and as smooth as if freshly ironed, without any of the dangers of ironing lace. For lace handkerchiefs the windup is a good "ironing" board, or in winter the mirror. If you will have a pane of glass set in a wooden frame you can dry double the number you otherwise could Cure of Hiccoughs. Hiecoughs are distinctly mortifying to the victim. As they are signs of poor digestion and, may mean bad stomach trouble if of frequent occurrence, they should be treated medically. For temporary curces try gradually dissolving a small lump of sugar on the tongue. Slow simping of hot water is also good or gargling the throat with ice water. The best way to not an increase in salary is to work go hard the boss must get along without you—then only THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA No man feels that he has a right to be left. Many a girl's beauty is spoiled by an ugly frame of mind. Of two evils it isn't always necessary to choose either. The man with a hot temper doesn't always make a warm friend. The fellow who is full of hot air doesn't always manage to get up steam. One good swift kick will often accomplish more than a lot of kindness. Trouble is the most obliging thing in the world. It will never dodge the people who are looking for it. Some people can't even do their duty without patting themselves on the back. Perhaps our clouds have a silver lining, but it generally takes other people to see it. Lots of us never put off till tomorrow what we can have done for us today It's the things we don't get that we should sometimes be most thankful for Circumstances over which we have no control frequently take the form of wives. Many a fellow's lofty ideals extend no further than highballs. Some people are so tireless that they become positively tiresome The best man at a wedding is the fellow who isn't getting married To greet misfortune with a smile is decidedly a one-sided flirtation Lots of marriages merely demonstrate that misery loves company WEDDING DAY OMENS The bride who dreams of fairies the night before her marriage will be twice blessed If the bridegroom carries a miniature horseshoe in his pocket he will always have luck. Don't wear an opal. Some people declare that opals are lucky. History proves the contrary. The bride who finds a spider in her wedding dress may consider herself lucky. No bride; if she would have good luck, should shake her own wedding cake. To do so invites ill fortune. Should a bride, perchance, see a funeral while being driven to the railway station prior to departing upon her wedding tour, she should order the driver to turn back and start over again, or else she will surely meet with bad luck No bride or bridegroom should be given a telegram while on the way to church it is a sign of evil. To try on the wedding ring before the day of the marriage is considered very unlucky. And for the bridegroom to drop it while placing it on the bride's finger is also held to hotoken misfortune. To lose the ring—or oven to remove it from the finger—is another unlucky sign QUIET THOUGHTS A still tongue carries further The finger of scorn should be curved. Some bad neighbors are so from example Many suburbs are paved with good intertions Man is known by the company he works Also dirt is a good friend, but a bad master Some folks keep up their appearances, but let their fences go. Too much booze also makes the world go round It is better to get down to brass tacks than to sit on one. Three rhyming words that are very closely related. "Boys," "toys" and "notso."

Every day such a device as seen in this cut may be removed, pulled out, sanded and replaced without going into the hennery. A is the board proje- t. The droppings from the poultry on the farms of this country that an- nually are practically wasted would, if properly cared for, mean a saving in fertilizer bills of hundreds of thou- bands of dollars in the aggregate. Very few, however, make any ac- count of it. On the average farm, if Removable Dropping Board. the hens are fortunate enough to have their houses cleaned at all, the droppings are thrown into an old barrel left up to the weather the ammunition escapes hand that is filled with sticky sacks of very little amount in the spring. By arranging roost boards two feet from the floor, as the hens can scratch underneath, then placing roost johns six or eight inches above them, it has a very easy matter to save the droppings in good condition. A good sprinkling of hand roost should be thrown over the roost platform and if not convenient to hoe out the droppings once a week keep throwing on more plaster every two or three days. This will set ammonia, keep the henhouse sweet and keep the droppings dry and in good mechanical condition. When you remove the droppings put them in a dry place, and if too moist add more plaster and keep it submerged and you have a strong terfiber. RAISING GEESE PROFITABLE Must Be Carried Out in a Scientific Way! Especial: Care Being Given to the Young. Raising geseo is, in fact, just as well as any kind of poultry, raising. Allowing the geseo to raise themselves according to their nature, they will show that life obeys very silly things. For instance they will stand by their mother and drown in a rain-storm when the old geseo would gladly shelter them. Geseo always "do belt with a goose mother, but they must be kept out of the rain as water rattah to them. Not until they are about six weeks' old "can they attend mum of it. A geseo mother will keep her brood together, but when the geseing have no mother they will separate and sometimes stray a great way from home and be unable to and their war back. It is advisable to build a true OUR JOB DEPARTMENT. 311 North Fourth Street, Girl, house and confine the mother goose with her family at night and on rainy days. Later the goosels can be taught to go into the water while the mother goose stays in the house. In this way she can care for a large flock of youngsters. Use but one goose for raising your flock. Give her a bunch of newly hatched goosels when you get them and she will hall them with delight and give them a hearty well come and rear them. Goosels will grow well on grass alone, especially on clover, but will do much better if fed once a day with all the cracked corn they will eat. Overfed goosels are rarely seen. Yet goosels will fill their necks until they must crane to get it down, take a drink, then eat some more. Many people are realizing the profit in raising heavy goose; as they are worth more a pound than the tighter breeds, and every year there is more demand for the Toulouse. 8and For Duoka. Some people have, a notion that ducks and geese do not need grit, because they are not seen picking up large particles of stone. They do not need as large a size of grit as hens do, for they get sand when pudding in the bottom of the creek and streams where they forage for weeds and fish. Ducklings should be, provided with plenty of sand, which takes the place of grit. So thoroughly do some duck raisers bulleo in grit that they mix sand-in the food-that they give their young ducks. sheep suffer much in hot, weather which compelled to pasture in the hot sun all day. If there are no shadoe trees in the pasture, make temporary shadows, at different, points in the pasture, covering them with straw, weeds, brush or any rough material that will protect from the hot sun. Watch the Field. If you have a field that has required two kefes to keep a cow during the last season, then there is something wrong with it. It either has not sufficient fertility or it has not a sufficient stand of grass, one or the other. FEEDING PIGEONS PROPERLY. Twice a Day) Sufficient For All Bessons of Year—Feed Can Often Be Changed. Feeding pigeons twice a day is sufficient at all times of the year. We often read of the importance of early morning feeding, but this is purely in motion; 8 o'clock is a good time for the breakfast hour. The proper method of feeding is to have a board about twenty four inches long and eight inches wide, with strips malled around the four ones one inch high, in which is placed grit covering the bottom about half an inch deep, with good, sharp mixture. At the present time there are very many two combinations—on the market. Upon this grit can be spread Canada pean, wheat and canary seed in the morning and in the evening small, round corn, hulled ones and Canada pean. An much should be given as the birds will eat up clean. There are many, changes that can be made in the menu. Bread can be given a little lettuce, jersey, oatmeal, kaffir corn millet and hamp seed.

Heap is very heating and fattening and should be given sparingly, although pigeons are very fond of it. GOOD BREED OF FOWL. Sussex is Foremost of English Breeds. Resemble the Dorking in Build and Color. Among the table and all purpose breeds in Europe the Sussex have always occupied a strong position in England. In type and carriage they much resemble the Dorking, being long of body, blocky and much of the size of our Plymouth Rocks. In color scheme and head and leg points they differ strongly from the Dorkings. Speckled Sussex. their legs and feet being white, skin and flesh white and their eggshells lightly tinted. There are three varieties recognized by the English standard, namely, the red or brown, the light and the speckled—of the latter is shown herewith an illustration. Like the Dorking, the Sussex is recognized primarily in England for its plump carcass of white meat, which is preferred to the yellow carcass so much in evidence in our Plymouth Rocks and Wryndottes. Though not quite so large as the Dorking, they are small of bone and are rated as better layers. POUETRY NOTES The first requisite to a good batch is healthy, parent stock well mated. As soon as your hen quits laying sell them to the butcher. Generally towels that feather early are good egg producers, good alters and good mothers. Charcoal is a corrective and not a medicine. It absorbs gases and promotes digestion of the food. The thore the towels are distributed over the farm in summer the more productive they will be. If you feed mash in troughs, food it in clean troughs. Dirt has nothing to do with a balanced ration. Empty all the water receptacles at night so as to start with fresh water in the muddle. Clean out the nest boxes occasionally putting in a fresh supply of bedding. Thousands of bees are killed every We Arranged It For You.

Knock out the side boards and replace with wire netting. If you will number your hens with a log band and keep a little hook regarding each fowl you will find the work to be doubly interesting. When the laying and hatching seasons are over for ducks and keeps it is the proper season to pluck the crop of feathers and get them ready for market.

In the suda and in the soap, Worked a woman full of hope. Working, singing, all alone. In a sort of undertone, "With the Savvour for a friend. He will keep you to the end." Sometimes happening along. I had heard the semisong. And I often used to smile. More in sympathy than gulie; But I never said a word In regard to what I heard. As she sang about her friend Who would keep her to the end Not in sorrow, nor in glee. Working all day long was she. As her children, three or four. Played around her on the floor; But in monotones the song She was humming all day long; "With the Savvour for a friend. He will keep me to the end." It's a song I do not sing. For I scarce believe a thing. Of the stories that are told Of the miracles of old; But I know that her belief Is the anodyna of grief. And will always be a friend That will keep her to the end. Just a trifle lonesome she. Just as poor as poor could be; But her spirits always rose. Like the bubbles in the clothes, And, though widowed and alone, Cheered her with the monotone, Of a Saviour and a friend Who would keep her to the end. I have seen her rub and scrub. On the washboard in the tub. While the baby sopped in suds, Rolled and tumbled in the duds, Or was paddling in the pools. With old scissors stuck in spools, She still humming of her friend Who would keep her to the end. Human hopes and human creeds Have their root in human needs; And I should not wish to strip From that washerwoman's lip Any song that she can sing. Any hope that song can bring: For the woman that laid Who will keep her to the end. —Eugene Wa. Edward 8. Brown. Easily the foremost Nogro in the state in point of character, capacity and attainments, and one of the most highly valued, was Edward S. Brown who died suddenly last night. For forty years he served with unsurpassed fidelity and efficiency in the state law library. His death will be heard of with genuine sorrow, and his loss will be keenly felt by the entire bench and bar of Virginia. In the bibliography of the law he was probably unequalled and certainly unsurpassed by any man—white or black—in the state. His creed to which he lived up with singular fidelity, was embodied in the motto found on the crest of the dead king of Bohemia, slain in the battle of Poctlers then assumed by the Black Prince, and since borne by the Princes of Wales—"I serve." He served God; he served the state he served the library, and how faithfully, zealously and effectively he served the lawyers who used the library, only those can know who for years have drawn on and profited by his wonderful knowledge of "authorities" and where to find them. He knew, as few trained and experienced lawyers know, whether on the bench or at the bar, where the law was to be found, and his extraordinary knowledge was modestly and unobtrusively at the service of those who wanted it. Always respectful, always efficient, always capable and always faithful, his death is a loss which to the library, the bench and the bar is well-nigh irreparable.—News-Leader, October 19, F1B10.

Lieutenant Colonel Allisonworth introduced Mr. Mitchell, paying a glowing tribute to the Virginian whom he had known for many years. Mr. Mitchell spoke for an hour and the audience was transfixed by his recital of his experiences, only interrupting at times with enthusiastic applause. He made a strong plea for racial co-operation and told in glowing language of the progress now being made by the colored people of the Southland. He declared that the race prejudice now being manifested over the country was the barometric indication of the progress of the colored people. He offered statistics to prove his assertion. His recital of the organization of the Meebanion's Savings Bank and its subsequent success was a revelation to the people of this community. He had taken beforehand photographs of the exterior and interior of this institution and they gave the source of anger, ending interest. 1,000 Wards of HALF-WOOL INGRAIN CARFET, that sells regularly Tor 60c.
