An Indignant Denial from the Father of
Frank Fletcher.

An Indignant Denial from the Father of
Frank Fletcher.
The GLOBE is in receipt of letter from
the father of the young man who committed
suicide in this city last week, Indignantly
denying the alleged motive for his self des-
truction, but carefully abstaining from sup
plying any other theory. AS faithful dis
semlnater of news the GLOBE publishes Ger
tain facts. They were legitimate and based
upon what we still believe to be reliable in
formation. Further investigation enables US
to suggest to the aggrieved parties that
they may pursue the topic farther than will
prove pleasant. While the GLOBE sympa-
thizss with the afflicted friends it is none the
less a newspaper and expects to pursue it's
legitimate calling in that direction. We
would especially suggest to Mr.. Burt that at
this time silence on his part will be golden.
Whether the GLOBE pursues the matter far
Their or not rests with the course which the
parties interested may desire. We can &C
commodate them in either direction.
The following is the letter of denial
TO the Editor of the Globe
Please allow me to state in your paper that
In regard to the death OF my son, Frank H.
Fletcher, the account detailed in your issue of
the I'd inst. is utterly wanton and false aud
serves to still farther wiring the hearts of
bereaved father and mother.
We have known Mrs. Frank Fletcher from
childhood and have the UTMOST confidence in
her. We believe our son Frank to have led a
happy life with her, and that jealousy did not,
as stated in the GLOBE, in any manner lead to
his death. What motive could have impelIed
the utterance of the baseless and ill-timed SLAM
der, no one but the fabricator may know.
Enough wrong has already been done an in
nocent woman, as well as to the memory of
our beloved son; the lips of calumny should
now be closed.

FIGHTING THE TIGER.
How an old Veteran was F1eeced in a Gan

How an old Veteran was Fleeced in u Gam
bling Den.
There is an old saw that speaks of an old
fool being the subliments spectacle of ash
ninity under the Speeding canopy of Gods
footstool, which is at present applicable to
a retired soldier named Swanson, who was
taken in and done for on Saturday. Arriv-
ing in this city on Saturday morning, he
proceeded to draw bis pension money,
amounting to $4,000, after which he con-
Guided to see the sights, before leaving the
metropolis.
Being of curious turn of mind and some
what avariciously disposed withal, he on
tered Third street gambling room for the
purpose of seeing the tiger.
The animal was in playful mood, and
the surroundings were of such captivating
character that the old veteran failed to de-
tect the fang that lay concealed under the
velvcty surface Of the claw, and the foolish
man thought that he could play with the
beast without receiving single scratch.
He played with the frisky animal and for
a while everything was lovely, when sudden
ly tho mood changed and the giddy thing
raked in the old mans coin to the tune of
sixty odd dollars. The veteran left tho
gilded den in disgust, and if his luck had
been good he no doubt would have never
squealed. His luck was sinister, however
and he hied him to police headquarters
making the usual whine about being ropec
in and feeced of his substance. An Officer
was sent to the room and succeeded in get
ting hack $40, with which the old soldier re-
turned to his home in the country.

Concerning Chufas.

DEAR FARMER AND MECH ANIC :
Among the many valuable articles
in your paper, some of which, | Of
ten feel almost alone pay me for
my subscription, / have read a
number relative to the Importance
of cultivating the chufa.
l know Of one man in our county
who has raised them with marked
cce From him [ have obtain
ed nearly half a bushel at a cost OF
only fifty cents to a hired man for
picking them, after the gentleman's
hogs were fattened and killed.
Though many bushels were left by
his fine Berkshires in the field,
which might have been sold for a
handsome sum-, he chose rather to
introduce this crop into his county
by giving to his friends all they
would take the trouble to gather.
I mention the above because |
think such liberality among far
mers in these cold, hard, selfish
times deserves public commenda-
ton.
| am now much interested in the
cultivation of these famous little
nuts, but am a young farmer and
feel my ineXperience. | therefore
write to ask some of the chufa IA
theirs a few pertinent questions,
answers to which through your col
nmns will be of great benefit to me,
and | doubt not to numbers of 9th
ers whose experience is limited.
Questions:-When is tt best
time to plant for the man who has
corn and cotton on hand besides?
What is the analysis of the plant,
and what its best fertilizer? How
often and when should the hay be
cut, so as not to damage the quail
ity and diminish the yield of the
fruit? What is the safest and
cheapest method for saving seed
Any other information directly
or Indirectly suggested by these
questions will be thankfully receiv-
ed by your friend and disciple,
JUyENiS.
Our young friend may be sure
we shall be pleased to hear from
him i, frequently.
