TIE RELIEF CONCERT

This most worthy undertaking for the re
lief Of destitute women and children, which
has for some time engrcssed public attention
and in which such deep interest has beer
manifested. was brought last night to high
ly successful and most fattering climax. Tn,
result was such as to reflect boundless credit

A large concourse of people gathered
early TO lend their encouragement and aid
to the affair, and the opera house was filed
up stairs and down with highly intelligent
and most appreciative audience. The
programme which follows was most
splendidly rendered throughout. every num-
Der being performed, except number three
of part one and number six Of part two.

Train Fruit Trees Low

There was some excuse when
the country was new and the first
land cleared was planted with
fruit trees, for training tree tops
high, SO us to be out of the way
of the horses in plowing or to
grow crops under them. But We
have long since learned that no
crop grown under trees pay their
actual cost. It would 6c better
still If teams could not get within
ten feet of the trunks, and weeds
or grass beneath them were kept
down by mulching. Low tops are
more convenient for gathering
fruit, and are less liable to be
blown off by severe winds. A
low top is easily kept in proper
shape, US 1t is not necessary to
procure high ladders to do tho
required pruning Low tops a'so
protect the trunk from injury
by exposure to sudden varia-
tion IN temperature. They are
peculiarly valuable in regions OF
severe frost, rs they protect the
stem and branches from the rays
of tho sun, which melt the frost
in the tree too suddenly.

Why Mcn Fall In Love.

ny ascertainablc and measurable
things, and yet we find them con.
tinually falling in love with wo-
men that are not beautiful, nor
good, nor wise, nor gentle, nor
possessing any asccrtainable or
measurable thing. You'll find II
hundred reasons for falling in
love, or being in love, and rarely
the right rcason-which is COM
monty simple because they can't

thing is just hcre-a wopan's eye

look'over to US. He stood ut the
door and smoked for u minute az
if making up his mind about
something, aud at last opened his
gate and came lounging across the
street. There was an unoccupicd
rocking chair on the vcranda, and
when my brother offered it to
him he dropped into it with sigh
of relief. He smoked for u few
minutes and said:

Railroad Progress in the Country

The great Railroad interests Of
the country aro looking up in
every direction, and the prospects
now are that during the next year
there will I've built many thousands
of miles of Railroads. This is rs
it should be, for their is nothing
that develops II country so fast US
traversing it all over with rail-
roads. It opens up the great veal
th of n country, and develops its
resources of every character
whatever. Among the important
roads that will probably be built
next year will be the eastern
extension of the Memphiss Selma
and Brunswick railroad, now
completed from Memphis to
Holly Springs and in successful
operation. This road will tap the
great coal fields Of the cast, and
will no doubt place coal within
the reach of the humblest citizen
of the land. 1t Will also run
through most excellent farming
country and will be one of the
great paying thoroughfarcs OF
tho land, and add greatly towards
building up Memphis tho most
fourlshing city of the southwest.
The other excellent paying road
will be the one from Memphis
down through the Yazoo Delta,
which we understand is now being
actually located. This route will
traverse the garden spot OF tho
wrorld US far as agriculture is
concerned, and will add many a
thousand bale of cotton to Mem
phis receipts. Upon the whole We
believe that next year will bca
great year for railroad building
