THE INDEPENDENT ORDER or GooI
TEMPLARs.-The Newburyport Ueralo
gives the following sketch OF the ordet
of Good Templars, an organization whicl
is becoming quite active in the temper
ance cause:
1t is fourteen years this month since
the first Grand Lodge was formed ir the
State of New York and in four year.
a(terward they had lodges in nine diff
ferent States, and organized a Mos
Worthy Grand Lodge for the continent
of North America. Soon it began 10
move forward, and its growth has been
unprecedented in the history Of similar
organizations, particularly in the West
where it at once became very fourisbng.
Ii is now attracting considerable at.
tention in the Eastern States, and is
having a healthy growth. At the present
time it has hourishiug grand lodges in
seventeen States, and in Canada AMI
Prince Edwards Island, and subordinate
lodges in five States where grand lodges
have not yet been formed. Il has a Total
membership of nearly one hundred thous.
and members, there having been a gain
of over twenty-eight thousand members
the last year.
The Order early attracted attention in
Massachusetts,, and is now increasing so
fast that it will soon become power in
the State. There are nearly fifty lodges
in the State,' fourteen of which are in
Essex county, and others are about being
formed iu this and other counties. In its
action females are on an equality with
males. They have no idea Of advocat-
ing suffrage for negroes in political affairs
and denying that right 10 their mothers,
wives, daughters and sisters in the lodge
room. So while DR.. Brigham Of Fitch
burg is the highest officer 10 the State,
Miss Amanda Lane Of Gloucester comes
next and Martha j. Knowland of Lynn
and Addie A. Cox Of Cambridgeport,
are also State officers. In their discus
sions here they strongly advocated the
right of woman to the franchise, and If
suffrage is to be any more extended than
it is, we hope their views will be approx
ed. We certainly expect to see Boston
or Newburyport have a female Mayor
as soon as South Carolina does colored
Representatives in Congress" :"

Nathaniel and Thomas Fullerton oI
Chester were in company in the mercan'
tile business, selling large quantities oI
liquor and amassing large fortune.-
Ichabod Onion, tanner, had the reputa-
ton of selling sole-leather when it was
very damp. A man by the name oI
Dresser was carpenter by trade, and SC
quick and keen in some replies to ques-
tons that people would frequently put
questions for the sport of hearing the
answers.
One day as be was making computa-
tions, for the frame of building, Ma
thaniel Fullerton and Mr.. Onion came
along and one of them asked Dresser
what he was doing there. He replied,
81 am trying to figure up which sells the
most water, Fullerton in his rum, or
Onion in his leather p
In their days of prosperity, Thomas
and Nathaniel Fullerton invested many
thousand dollars in Lowell factory stock.
After a while Thomas died, and soon
after that Nathaniel received letter not-
flying him of the loss of almost eight
thousand dollars invested in the Lowell
stock. Mr.. Dresser happened to be in
the store when Nathaniel received the
letter, and when the reading was finished,
Nathaniel exclaimed,-"There's e G h t
thousand dollars gone to hell p "Never
mind" says Dresser, "Tom is there to
take care of it !"
A young man residing in Windsor
County, was SO proud of ais secession pro-
clivities and some of bis associates that
he procured copperhead breast-pin
to wear as badge of his political stand
ing. One day he bad occasion to ride out
Of town, and becoming very thirsty called
at a house to get drink of water. A
young woman very politely waited on
him, and be was SO much enamored from
her beauty and fascinating manner that
he could not forego the temptation TO ask
her whether she was married, and if she
was not to tell her he would be pleased
to make her visit, as he had no wife,
meantime displaying his breast-pin and
putting on his best airs ....
The young woman was so much an
noyed at the foppish appearance of the
young man that she told him she was mar
ried, and, pointing to black man who
was at work in the garden, ironically
said, "He is my husband |" "What,"
says the young man "he your husband
why was never SO surprised in my life l"'
Says the woman, 81 can tell you ofsome-
thing a good deal more surprising than
that" "What can that be 2" calculated
the other. "Why, / have sister who is
a good deal handsomer than / am and she
married a copper head" The man left

EFFECr OF BONE DUsT.-I see a
great deal in your paper about the use
of bone dust or -four, / have thought
go)d many tin l would give you lit
tie of my experience in that matter. In
1914 lived in house of an independent
farmer, and planted about three-fourtbs
of an acre of corn on pinesplsin. That
farmer had been for many years gather-
ing all the old bones be could find
That spring he carried them to plaster
mill and got them ground. He gave me-
peck of the flour, which l put on one
half of my piece Of corn. 1t had won
derful effect. The stalks grew foot
taller than on the other half, and were
darker colored, and the ears were from
two to four inches longer. The difference
through the season was such that the
passers by often called to me to know
what made the difference. i could only
tell them that dry bones did it. --
The farmer experimental with it by
putting bone ontwo rows, plaster Of Paris
on the adjoining two, house ashes onthe
next two, then two with nothing but the
manure, which was applied alike to the
whole field. Thus contrasted, the effect
was wonderful. am not able TO give
the exact difference in the yield in corn
when harvested, as it has been so long
that | have forgotten but ] do remem.
Der very plainly how the corn looked
when growing, and that there was very
great differences in the appearance of tho
rows experimental with. If you think
this somewhat vague recollection will be
of any benefit to the public. you may

VOLUME lO---NUMBER SO.
Blue Eyed Minnie.

In little cottage home,
Dwelt maiden fair,
Eyes of blue SO bright and joyous,
Shaded by the golden hair.
Tiny hands were folded meekly,
Blue eyes gazing up the street;
Lips were wreathed with smiles so sweet,
The long wished for one to greet.
Months had passed since in the doorway
They had whispered the farewell;
Now her darling one was coming,
And her joy words could not tell.
In the door she standeth watching,
Till her heart is sick with fear;
And the night shades falling deeply
O'er the pines now dark and drear,
Seem to send a sad foreboding
To the heart so soon to break,
And the pine tree tassels quiver,
As though grieving for her sake.
Dim the blue eyes grow with watching,
Tiny hands clasp in despair;
Still she standeth in the doorway,
Till the morning breaks so fair.
Then unto that little cottage
Comes friend with saddened mien,
Whispers to the little maiden
Who upon his bosom leans
Whispers-"Charlie dear was wounded,
To his home he came away,
But he kept from us the tidings,
And he died upon the way"
In the doorway standeth watching
AT the hour of twilight gray,
The pale face of little Minnie,
Looking up the streets away.
For the one that never cometh-
Looking as she looked that night,
But the mind has fled forever
From the eyes so blue and bright.
And the pine trees droop their tassels
10 the chilly evening air;
With their dreary dirges keeping
Time with Minnies broken prayer.
And that prayer for death was answered
The blue eyes closed for aye
Tiny hands are folded meekly,
And the pine trees shade to-day
The grave Of blue eyed Minnie,
And she's met in Heaven above,
The one she watched for wearily
With never dying love.

THEY WILL Nor REMAIN-THE NJ

the negroes on most Of the plantations in this
vicinity will not remain with their employ
ers on any reasonable terms. They refuse 10

They have either left the farms, or are pre-

them. or steal There are now here hun
dreds more than can find employment, while
the farmers are anxious to secure their labor
for the coming year. We know Of instances
where the most favorable offers have been

Their coming 20 the city can only result in
privation and suffering during the winter,
