:Sl. be close Of the Court of Sessions at
Knderssn, on Wednesday of last week,
J1dga Norton passed sentence upon
osecenyicted Of crime, among whom
as John III. Robi1son, convicted of two
ciissxes, one of which was carrying con.
sealed weapons. For this violation of
aW 1is. Honor sentenced the prisoner to

bench fines him five dollars
ssSsssEhis is an inference drawn from q

Once here in the Court of Sessions in the
last seven years man was fined Sl.00
for carrying concealed weapons. When
convicted alone of that charge, Judge
Norton is one man who will do what he
thinks is his duty, regardless of what
Others think of his conduct. Would that
We had more such men in high and hon

4 Farmer Not Wanted.

Editor anderson lntelEgencer:
In reply to the well.put article cf J.
B. Douthit, in reference to the appoint
ment of Grange speakers for Anderson
County, we would respectfully inform
him that representative farmer is not
wanted. The State Grange was once 8
power for good, but we fear its glory has
departed. Once it could command, and
its voice was heard and respected-now
SIC obseqniously bows to the behests Of
tothers. As an evidence, it is a we'll
known fact that the State Grange showed
mo favor to the progressive farmers
movement" although it would take
Philadelphia lawyer to point out the
difference between the purposes of the
two organizations Both aimed to unity
and organize the farmers for their own
good, and yet the State Grange, through
Its appointed head, warred upon the far
mers' movement from the first. Of
course the people could very naturally
infer the controlling reasons which
influenced the Master of the State
Grange in this suicidal course. A rep.
resentative farmer is not wanted any
where, except as a pack. horse, to raise
cotton at less than the cost Of production,
that Others may feast and fatten on the
products of his labor. Nothing must be
done to disturb the equanimity of the
"powers that be" hence, the farmers as
such cannot be trusted. Look 10 the
action ofthe last Legislature inre.organ.
ling the Board Of Agriculture. Not a sim
gle man, so far as we can spot them, was
appointed on that Board, who was prom.
inent in the farmers movement. Some
professed friendliness for the objects
Of the movement, but could not support
it, because they did not like Mr.. Till
ran. He has bid adieu, as leader to
the movement, and now what will these
professed friends do now7 They will
have the opportunity to show their
hands during the summer, because if the
farmers are true to themselves, they will
show thar strength in the next Legisla-.
ture in the election Of men who will be
true to the interests Of farmers, as far
mers. themselves interpret those interests.
They will send men there who will give
che farmers Of the State an Agricultural
College, pure and simple, with the same
money that equips the annex, with an
Experimental Station attached. They
will send men who will repeal the
present interest law, and reduce fees and
salaries generally, aud reduce the expen-
ses of government to the lowest mini
mum. Really, farmers, as, such, have
but little interest as to who shall fill the
the Offices, SO that good and. competent
men are appointed. What they are
striving for is to elevate and educate
their class, and reduce the expenses of
government to the lowest minimum cou.
sistent with good government. Less
they will not take-mors they do not ask
for. An OLD GRANGER

tender went down with the cars.
The engine came on to Blackshear and
gave the alarm. All the stores closed
and everybody went to the wreck to
administer to the wants of the wounded
and dying.
The trestle is about 500 feet long and
is at the oot of grade. Where the
train fell it is about twenty-five feet high.
Two. thirds of the trestle fell with the
cars and of that standing there is nothing
but the columns, and striD"ers. The
crossties are cut into splinters. The
train caught fire from stove, but tho
heroic presence Of mind of Engineer
Welch who leaped from the engine and
put out the fire prevented an awful Gre.
nation. The accident is supposed to
have been caused by defective truck
under the baggage car, the mark of some
machinery dragging along the ties
beyond the trestle.
As rapidly as the wounded could be
moved they, together with the dead, were
carried to Waycross.
President Wilbur was fearfully cut in
the head and otherwise injured. He
never lost consciousness, however, and as
soon as the doctors got through sewing
his wounds he dictated telegram about
the accident. His son, r. 81. Wilbur, is
badly hurt. Among those who escaped
we're Mr.. and Mrs. George j. Gould, of
New York. Mrs. Gould was bruised
some, but not badly. They are now at
the Brown house in Blackshear. They
we're going to Fernandina, to meet their
father, Jay Gould, who is soon expected
there in his yacht. There are others
hurt whose names have not been obtain
ed. Among the wounded it is now
reported that Mrs. Aves is dead.

In less than three months from the doy
that | first discovered Eva, Miss Adele

hands than she could easily attend to,
and | found myself-but no, | will tell
you about that later, for now comes the
most remarkable part of this narrative
(and there Is nothing 50 very remarkable
in the story Of d free man who IS often
thrown into the society Of a good and
beautiful woman falling in love with
herr and that which emphasizes the TACT
that truth is stranger than fiction.
One day there drew up before my
sisters door the well-known eluipage Of
one of the city's most successful bankers,
and from it alighted a gentleman who
eagerly requested to see Miss Adele.
The result of that visit was nothing short
of the restoration of little Eva to her par
ents and home, for she was proven
to be the long-l lost and sadly mourned
daughter of the banker, stolen by a
former servant, the only OBJ ect that
could be disco, cred to extort money for
her return. In order probably to render
the scheme successful the child had been
taken far away, where it wou d be diff
cult to trace her. The mysterious death
of the woman had interlerel with the
original plan and left no clue by which
the agonized parents could posi- ly dis
cover their child, and long since she had
been given up for dead.
In the course of its progress from per-
son to person, the story of the young
music teacher and her little charge had
reached the banker and his wife, who
fastened to convince themselves that
Eva was their long-lost darling: the

The Formation of Soils.

Our soils, as is well known, depend
upon variety of actions which serve to
break up the rocky matter Of the earth,
and TO COmmingle that matter with or
ganic materials more rapidly than the
crosiye agents can remove the d,tri'us
from the point at or near which il de.
Gays. For the formation of the soil two
actions, at least are essential First the
bedrock must be broken into fragments
sufficiently separated from each other to
permit the pas aye Of roots between
them second, the rock fragments must
be still further commiuutcd and com
mingled with organic waste to make the
combination Of organic aud inoig gauic
matter on which the utility of the soil
absolutely depends. Although the earth
worms are undoubtedly very i'm ortant
agents in overtuIuing and breaking up
OF soil, il appears 10 me that ihey are
most effective in the titled felds or in
the natural ard artificial grass lands So
far as have been able TO observe. these
creatures are ra ely found in our ordinary
forests where thick layer OF leaf mould,
cOmningled with branches lies upon
the earth. The character of this
deposit is such that the creatures are not
competent to make heir way through il,
and they therefore in the main avoid such
situations. Moreover, wherever the soil
is of very sandy nature, earth worms
are scautly found if they are present AZ
all. These worms are practically limited
to the soils Of a somewhat clayey chlrac-
ter, which have no coating of decaye
vegetation upon them,
As the greater portion of the existing
soil has been produced in forest regions.
shall first examine the action Of various
animals upon the soils of wooded couu-
tries. The mammals are, of all our verte.
brates, the most effective in their action
upon the soil Of forests. Twenty species
