An Old Church with . History.

About two miles south Of Newark
rises Iron Hill, overlooking the old
Welsh Tract church, and here the
brisk gurgles alternated by sleepy
stretches of CLASSY plscidity. The church
bears the venerable date l746, and IL ia
surrounded by stone wall about four
feet high. Within this wall is burial
ground Of one acre or more. Looking
over the graveyard you can find rough
ly hewn tombstones half hidden by the
creeping ivy and covered with the dirt
of ages Among the names and dates
to be found are deborah James, died
Dec. 4, 1881, aged years John Grit
fifth, April ~, 1920; Jos. Nichols, 1716 ;
Eli Price, 1712; Riceus Rythrougb, 1907,
and others whose dates were indistin.
guishable.
Onto the hills, that are SO dear
And the vallies that lie between,
Our f0refat hers are buried here,
On the banks Of the old Christeen.
Past this point during the Revolution
Gen. Howe marched his troops to the
valley Of the Hockessin. previous TO
taking up the position on the Brandy
wine he occupied at the battle. For
some time he encamped upon Iron and
Chestnut Hills, aud 0utposts of the
American army we're at the old Welsh
Tract chu Gu. After Howe's arrival
the sturdy patriots were nightly thrown
into alarm by the appearance OF a phan-
tom hOrseman shro uded in white, who
was wont in the silent hours to pass
with laundering hoof-b beats over the old
bridge across the Christiana. The
ghostly rider was frequently fired upon
by our affrighted sentrles but he al
ways rode upon his laundering way,
paying NO more attention to the bullets
than though they were so many fiies.-
One night old Corporal Green, one of
the "Blue Hens Chickens" was on
duty at this detested post; a tough, skep-
tiral old chap was the corporal, with
little belief and no fear in ghostly visi.
tants. The night was bright, with a
full moon that lent mysterious lustre
scarcely less than that of the young
day. Midnight arrived, and soon was
heard the gathering sound of horse in
full Rallop, echoing clearly in the still
ness Of the night, descending the steep
road down Iron Hill. The unbelieving
Corporal merely shifted his guid Of to
bacco, cooked his gun and rested it up
on the wall. Presently the mysterious
horseman came in sight, when old
Green ran his eye along the barrel of
his old rifle. Following The flash there
was the sound of a body dropping, and
the white horse galloped off without a
rider. The body Of An English officer
was found in the road wrapped in a
sheet, beneath which was heavy steel
bullet proof cuirass. But Green had
aimed at the head, and hit it, too.

The DirIgo Rural tells OF an expert
menting farmer who purchased 100
pounds of ground bone, placed them in
half hogshead tub and applied forty
pounds of sulphuric acid, adding wa ter
as desired. In five days time the
whole mass was reduced to a consist
ency of thick jelly. Water was then
added, and 300 pounds of plaster used
as a dryer, the whole being worked and
shoveled over until it could be readily
handled. Thephosphate no made was
applied to one acre of potatoes, both
being manured sufficiently, and a
small quantity was left, which was ap.
piled to his wheat field and plat of
grass ground, just to see what it would
do. The result of this manure in the
two latter instances was most marked
while the corn was heavy the growth
being dark colored and stout and the
pota Goes good. The entire cost Of the
phosphate was $3.50, and he thinks 1t
| the best expenditure In the way of pur.
] chased manures he ever made.

Garter HarrisOn's Opinion
Bla0ne.

Is Blaine popular In Illinois 2"
Yes he was the choice Of Illinois,
no doubt. There il an enthusiastic fol-
lowing for him in the great body of the
party here, and they are grattfied to
see him nominated.
Do you know Blaine we'll 2"
" Pretty we'll. l was in Congress
when he was prominent there, and l
have spoken on the same platform with
him."
" Do yon think him shrewd
man ?'
Well, should rather reckon 80, -
said the Mayor, with grim smile.
" During the campaign of 1880, was
addressed from Valparaiso, Indiana, to
to come down there TO speak against
Blaine. l declined to go, and ap-
peaing dispatches were sent to me to
como.
Blaine was not in very good condi-
ton that night. He was out of voice,
and seemed nervous and tired. When
he got through his speech he remained
a little while to near me and then had
to go and take a train. He made a
pretty mean speech, as I think all
speeches are addressed only to the in
dividual pocket. Yet in result it prov
GU 10 NO one OF Ju6 tuOBh eu6CtlVo
speeches ever made, and some portions
Of 1t still linger in my mind. He said
TO the workingmen and others present :
You have some factories here. YES,
they replied. you are all at work,
suppose and get pretty good wages? %
They said, Yes.
Mr.. Blaine continued: you can put
up your feet when the days labor il
through and light your pipe and read
your newspaper They seemed to lis
ten with good humor. Now, said
Blaine, take care, my friend, when
you make q change that you do not
make it against the interest of your
wife and children, for though l have
lived u good many years and seen a
great number of elections, l never yet

we would carry Valparaiso. But when
the returns came in I was never more
astonished in my life. do notoeiieve

of the solutions offered to No. /. One
