throne OF virtue the fall is so greal
she can never rise again, and the
doors of society are closed and her
lot is to forever remain on the out
side. And the man who would pull
her down from that high plane is
worse than the devil and hell is too
good for him, though society often
fondles him as petted child, and
seems to say to him, "You have
acted your part we'll, continue in the

as long as society tolerates such

A Tendency to Change.

From the reports Of local correspond
ents made to the agricultural department
at Washington, it is learned that in
Florida there is a marked tendency
throughout the state to change from cot
ton to other crops. Truck farming is
largely increased. and other crops are be-
ing experimental with by those who for
merly grew cotton. In Alabama q dispo-
sition is noticed to increase the area de-
voted TO mowings and pasture and to be-
stow more attention to the raising Of
stock.
In Texas there is only slight increase
in the area of cotton. The diminished
oat acreage on account Of bad weather at
the sowing win be covered with corn and
forage crops. From Arkansas there is re-
ported noticeable tendency to change
the usual proportions Of farm crops.
There is q decided increase in tho planting
of forage and food crops, corn. sorghum,
oats, grapes and fruits. In the north
western counties hundreds of thousands
of fruit trees have been planted. princi-
pally apples. In Kansas the tendency
last spring was to put in more oats and
corn. There was also a large increase in
the sorghum acreage in anticipation Of a
demand for sugar manufacture. In Iowa
there is a general and marked falling of
in the acreage of apring wheat as com
pared with last year. =

THE TREE WALES PLANTED.
1t rs an Oak in Central Park, New York,

It rs an Oak in Central Park, New York,
and 1t Is Very siclly.
When the Prince of Wales was in Amer
lea in 1860 he planted an English oak in
Central park, New York. In those days
Fernando Wood was the mayor of New
York, and he appointed a committee to
entertain the prince. On Oct. IL the royal
visitor accepted an invitation Of the COM
mittee to visit Central park. The prince
and suite were met at the entrance by
the park commissioners. They all then
proceeded to a spot in the park west of
the MALL a short distance southwest of
the concert grounds, where the ground
had been prepared for the reception of
two young trees. When the party ar
rived at the spot. where there were as
sembled number Of people in carriages
and 200 park laborers drawn up in line,
Mr.. Blatchford. president Of the park
commissioners, addressed the prince:
IoRD RENFREw-The commissioners OF Central
park, to whom the state of New York has in
trusted the construction Of this great pleasure
ground for the people. have requested me TO ask
you to do them the favor to plant there two trees,
one an English oak, the other an American elm.
They trust that these trees will long flourish and
remain lasting memorial Of your visit to the
city and this park.
The prince-with assistance, of course
placed the trees in position. With q
shovel he threw clay about the roots. The
elm was first put in, and then the oak.
There was cheer by the workmen, and
afterward a banquet at the residence Of
the mayor.

be spared. Brant, however, being called
upon to perform some service which re-
quired a few hours absence, left the pris-
oners in charge of Col Butler, who, upon
their refusal to answer his questions, de-
livered them over to the Indians for tor

After the revolution Brant devoted his
time principally to the interests of his
people, who were then settled in Canada.
He displayed great executive ability in
the management of the affairs of his
tribe, and his business training with Sir
William Johnson stood him in good stead.
He died in 1907.
Brant was man of handsome person
