The Author OF America"

Yesterday afternoon Rev. s. F. Smith Of
Newton gave q very interesting address at
the Boston Baptist Bethel in which he related
his experience among missionaries Of Asia,
having just returned from that country. Dr.
Smith VIII be remembered as tie writer Of
our national hymn, america" which he
wrote in 1882 while q student at Audover. He
was born in Boston at the west end, Oct. q.
IS0S, and consequently VIII be Is years old
this month. The hYrnn was first sung at .
convention Of Sunday schools at WatarviIle.
Ne. june, 1885, and again the next year at
WnsIow. On June %, 1885, it was pub
hshea for the first time in The lions Advo-
cate, and since that time it has been sung in
every village and hamlet in the country. DR..
Smith also wrote the hymn commencing with
the words, ''The Morning Light is Breaking"
and in the course of his address he stated that
while visiting a mission of Telegoos in Asia
he heard the hymn sung, part of the congre-
CATION singing in English and the rest in the
native language.

The extraordinary advance in journalism
has given the daily press position far greater
than that formerly held by periodical litera-
ture. There is nothing indeed in any of the
monthles superior to what may be found in
the dailies. For this reason the former place
their chief dependence for popularity on their
pictorial merit, which is certainly very ap-
parent. The engravings which adorn Har-
per and The Century are really wonderful OF
art, but without these attractions, however,
they could not compete with the
daily paper. Speaking of Harper, it
may be added that its latest issue con-
tains an article by j. T. Headley. This once
popular writer has fallen out of notice to such
q degree that his appearance is almost like a
resurrection. Headley at threescore and ten
is one of the Oldest of American authors, and
like many others has outlived his reputation.
He made the latter by a few sensational
books, the most important of which was ''Na-
poleon and His Marshals,n which was a very
clever production His first appearance be-
fore the reading public, however, was as
European correspondent Of The Tribune, and
bis letters were very interesting. He would
have done better to have pursued journalism
than book making, since the former has in
creased in Importance while the latter has

Some Remarks About Booth.
ICor. Albany Lourpal.l


The remark was great deal to get out of
Booth He very rarely had anything to say
On topics connected with his profession.
That is partly because he has few ideas of
his own as to acting and the rest of his ret
icence is due to his low estimation Of his
ability as an original talker. It is no
criticism of his achievements as an actor
one way or the other, to say that it IS wholly
mechanical. Intellectual though his Hamlet
may appear, it is doubtful if he within
ten years, if ever. browed an hour Of
Of really original study on it. He plays
the part as did his father before
him, and has repeated it so many times that
the work, always without inspiration, is now
as thoughtless as a cough or a snore. He is
frank about it. There is no sham in Booth
He does not hire clever writer's to produce
magazine articles to which he may attach his
name. l knew Of his being invited to con-
tribute to a publication, along with other
celebrities OF his own and other professions.
His reply was: F'If tried. Z should GER
tainly fail at It," He has few theories and
10 Imagination.
Without the necessity of studying new
roles, donbt if he reads for pleasure or cul-
ture a page of Shakespeare per year. There
is an immensely Of hunlbug about histrion-
ism, but here is an expert who does not take
his share. Nor has lie any enthusiasm in his
art. The last of the Booths-there is no heir
Of the name-is an exponent of all Of the arti
flee of dramatic minlicry which he learned
from his family predecessors, without a spark
of their fire Of genius. But he has a bank
account of dollars where any one Of them

half million in q Boston residence. Does

Missing with His Friends, Money.

Trenton Times states that forged notes ag-
gregating between $40, 060 and $4,000 were
discovered. The facts as to these statements
are hard to obtain as the principal sufferers
are understood to be Halls friends, and they
refuse to divulge the amount of the losses
In Trenton Hall had borrowed sums ranging
from 800 to $4,000. Cornelius Hardenburg
and Thomas Warren are said to be the prin-

A New Orchard.

The Agricuturist, for September.
There is no more profitable use to which
farmer can devote share of his land than
to orchard planting If he intends the fruit
for his own use only, it will be in the best
sense of the word profitable as it will bring
health, comfort and enjoy ment. Many plant
trees without properly considering the va
rieties, and then, grudging the land thus &C.
cupied, ask of it what is required of no other
field upon the farm viz, that it shall annu-
ally support two crops, the trees and grass
grain or something else, which usually has
the land all to itself. This treatment is
mainly the cause of the 'giving OUT of
fruit, about which we hear in the older States.
While we advocate the planting of orchards,
we have too much regard for trees to wish
them to be submitted to such treatment.
Unless one can be content with one crop
from his land, and be willing to give it up
to the trees. he had better not plant them
Of course, while the trees are young, a wide
strip between the rows may be properly oc-
cupied by CROP but when they come into
bearing the trees should have the whole
land, and all crops, such as clover, and other
pasturage for pigs, should be grown for the
benefit of the trees. An orchard; properly
treated, may be made profitable if the fruit
is sold, dried or "evaporated," or converted
into cider and vinegar There is no better
time to prepare an orchard than during this
and next month, whether the planting
IS 10 De zone TINS rail- or
next spring. The most important work OF
preparation is drainage. Treesare sometimes
planted upon soil that is TOO wet, with the
intention of laying the drains afterwards. 1t
is much better to drain before planting, as
the convenient time for laying the drains
may not occur for years, and the trees having
made their early growth in an unsuitable
soil, can never be completely restored Very
poor land may require manuring, but if suf-
fciently fertile for the ordinary crops of the
farm, it is rich enough. Thorough blowing,
with breaking up of the sub-soil, is OF more
Importance than manure. Even If the trees
are to be planted in spring, much time may
be saved by laying out the ground, placing
a small stake to indicate the place for each
tree

Seeding to Grass,

New England Farmer.
After many trials in seeding land to grass,
we long ago came to the conclusion that there
is no better time for sowing the seed than
during August, which is natures chosen time
for nearly all varieties excepting the clovers,
whose seeds are prevented from terminating
by being enclosed in tight pods or husks,
which rarely become rotten enough to let
the seeds escape before the following spring.
Timothy, red-top, orchard grass, June grass
and the fescues all seed themselves early in
fall, and most of them will produce full
crop and bear seed the following summer,
provided their growth is not interfered with
by an overpowering grain crop. AS stated in
the outset grass has ever been treated in
this country as of secondary Importance,
while really it stands at the head of all crops
in point of value. 1t makes some extra
work TO plough stubble field in the fall
after taking off a crop of spring grain, but
we believe it is the true way to treat grass
where hay is a crop of prime importance, as
it is in many sections. We also believe that
there is far less risk OF loss OF seed when it is
sown alone in August or early in September,
than if sown in spring or at any other season
in connection with grain crop.

Arrest of Dink Davis, a Gambler Who vo
100000 in Two Months.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 27.-Detective Hugh O'Nel
arrived in the city yesterday morning with
"Dink" Davis in custody, the gambler who
is wanted here on the charge of beating a
man named Sam. Donnelly out of $500 at
faro during the week of the races. Almost
as soon as he arrived at the Four Courts
Davis gave bond for his appearance Frank
Turner becoming his surety. Davis is the
individual who created such a furore in
Eastern sporting circles by successfully
breaking a number of faro banks in New
York and Philadelphia. 1t is estimated that
in two months he won $16O, 900. His good
luck did not last, however and he lost heavi-
ly in New York before he came West. About
eight weeks ago he went to Hot Springs,
Ark, and began to play the banks there.
He lost So, 600 in eight weeks, and his ar
rest by 0Neil is the only thing that pre-
vented him from dropping the remainder of
his roll. He claims to be able to prove his
innocence Of the charges brought against
him, and says that if he ever won any money
from anybody it was won squarely. Don
nelly's evidence is very damaging especially
regarding the fact that faro bank was in
existence at Davis's room in the Southern
Hotel, and unless compromise is reached
Davis will have hard time.

Country Roads.



One of the anomalies Of civilization is the
method of making and repairing roaas in
this country. 1t is a mysterious process
which none but the initiated understand
In its simplest elements it consists in the
transportation of clay and sand from, the
side to the middle or bed of the road. The
mystery is in the object of this work, which
the results do not reveal. 1t is stated that
the idea is to furnish a dry, compact surface
for the transportation of vehicles. The falsi-
ty of this assumption needs but to be pointed
out to be appreciated. The real object of the
repairer is to get so much dirt. sand, gravel
or stones, as the case may be, out of the
handiest place on the roadside and upon the
most contiguous portion of the roadbed as
will pay his road tax. The least possible
amount of science and care being employed
in the construction, the roads. as a result, are
OF the poorest sort Imaginable. In compar-
ison with those of England, our roads would
that the character of our soil renders the con-
structon of roads like the English roads TOO
expensive for our resources. In answer we
would call attention to Canada. which, in
the matter of roads, is, we venture, fifty or
one hundred years ahead of us. Our soil
cannot differ materially from Canadian soil.
We have railroads, steamships, tele@raphs,
telephones, etc, ETC.; but when we arr COM
PEELED to use the road we use the same road
that was used by our forefathers one hun
bred years ago. We have bicycles as perfect
IN construction and adaptability as sill can
make them, and the problem that now con-
fronts the bicycler is roads.
