Will you kindly allow me small space
in your valuable paper, to call attention
to nuisance in the northern part of the

within the limits, just west of the mill,
much tn the annoyance of the residents
in that locality; and. undisturbed, hold
high carnival at their pleasure, and
especially last Saturday evening, some
being drunk and making the night hide
GUS with curses and obscene language.
Besides this. nothing is safe except under
lock and key, and the neighborhood is
threatening summary vengeance unless
they remove or are removed at once. If
they have reservation, why not compel
them to stay on it, instead of being allowed
to remain here to pilfer and carouse7
We hope the matter will be attended to
by the proper authorities at once. They.
can be removed to a respectful distance,
at least. ONE INTERESTED.

WILD MusrARD.-Several of our ex.
changes are calling attention to this pest
of the grain field. It is most dangerous
plant, and if permitted will very soo1,
take full possession. During the past
week we heard some farmers in this
county complaining of it, but not having
had any experience with it, they had
very little idea Of the injury that result,
from permitting its growth. There is nc
remedy but pulling it out by root where.
ever it shows itself. A case in points
good farmer bought small farm on
which the indolence of the former owner
permitted the mustard full sway. He
rooted it out except in one small field
This he kept in hoed crops for several
years, when thinking he had gained the
victory he sowed grain. What was his
astonishment to find the hateful plan,
again showing its color. 1t cost him the
utmost vigilance for two more years to
get rid of it.-Walsh Co. Times.

cursionists from Helston, Falmouth.
and Redruth had taken possession OF
it. There must have been at least
hundred persons picnicking on the
sands.
We climbed the steep cliff and
strolled slowly back to the village, get
ting fine specimens of the heather on
| the way. For some distance we walk
ed on the hedges, which were very
broad and lad paths on them. After
"a genuine Cornish picnic dinner. ut
| which every one vas supposed 10 eat
| about three times as much as neees-
sary, we left our parlor at the inn and
visited the light houses, two large
| towers with electric lights which with
their cottages made a small village in
| themselves. The systems of lighting,
| and the machinery, which was French,
English. and American, were very
elaborate and interesting. About a
| a mile along the cliffs. a few weeks be-
| fore the Inflated "Mosel," German
steamer, laden with merchandise and
| passengers for the United States. had
gone ashore. We picked our way
along the coast guard path to the
scene of The wreck, and were able To
see the deck Of the vessel just below
! the surface of the water at the foot OF
| the dizzy cliff. In dense fog the
Mos ell" had run ashore and in the
early morning some five hundred pas
sengers, most of them poor emigrants.
| were pulled ashore and taken 20 Fal-
mouth. There, bare headed and with
nothing Tut what they had upon them,
| they were shipped once more for "the
| land Of the free" While we were in
| Cornwall sales of damaged goods taken
| m llllA in
| Cornish towns.
AS soon as we had returned from
the wreck, walking past Landewed-
! mack church on our way back to
! the village we made a tour OF the
"serpentine" shops and Chen started
| home, passing over the Downs and
reaching HelSton just as the long
| evening WAS drawing 10 Il close. 1t
was quite dark When We drove through
| Ciodgy Lane tmuSical namc) and were
RECALLED with the story OF Parsom Jago,
| once vicar of Wendron, who in this
lane used to summon up demons by
merely striking the ground with his
riding whip. TO this day Clodgy Lane
has terrors for the country people.
The next day we walked to Pork
ellis. over d bleak and stony path. and
by delightful little stream; that ran
through lOIhelllS IHUplS. 1SidChUSi-
ries were ripe III all the hedges, and
there were numerous flowers in bloom.
POrkellis once great mining centre
seemed quite deserted, and we found
very little to interest us there. The
land on the moOrs had been well turn
ed over, and miners were still engaged
in working there, but the cluster OF
matched houses constituting POrkelllS
gave no sign OF PROSPEROUS life.
Before leaving Wendron We again
visited the Mine Maidens, and from
there walked to the top of earn Mon
ellis, Il fine hill with curious granite
boulders on it, and commanding mag
nilicent views Of West Cornwall. 1t
was in this neighborhood that John
Wesley did great deal of eXhortil.g
and was stoned and otherwise abused
