THE TWO BROTHERS.

In Palestine long years ago
So runs the legend old,
Where Kedron's sparkling waters flow
Across their sands of gold,
And Mount Moriah lifts his head
Above the sunny plain,
Two brothers owned-as one--'tis said,
a field of golden grain.
And when the autumn days had come.
And all the shocks and sheayes
Stood waiting for the harvest home"
Among the whitening leaves
The elder brother said one night:
I'm stronger far than Saul,
My younger brother. It's but right
That l should give him all
These sheaVes upon the plain
We own together, 80
I'll put with his my stack Of grain,
And he will never know
Scarce mad he left the sneaves of wheat
When quietly there came
Across the field with stealthy feet,
On errand just the same,
The younger lad who said: Il see
My brother Simon's need
Is greater al than mine, for he
Hath wife and Child to feed;
And 50 TO him I'll give my sheaves--
1t is but right, ! know.
And he will never think who leaves
These " neat stacks on his row.
Next morning when the brothers twain
Began 10 count their store,
Behold each found his stacks of grain
TO number as before,
"Why. how is this" in great surprise
Eacn to himself them said:
''Ill watch tonight to see WAC tries
These tricks when I'm abedn
And so half way across the plain
They met--each one bent DER
With shocks and sheaves of golden grain
TO swell his brothers store!
Good Saul and Simon Would to-day
More brothers might be found
Who seek each others good alwav,
And il kind deeds abound.

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


Are your line fences all right!
Eat more fruit and less fat meat.
Raise all your good heifer calves.
Weed the garden early anu often.
Combat and conquer the curculiO.
Too much water used in transplanting
is worse than none.
Ia transplanting plants Of every kind
keep the roots moist.
There is nothing made in turning out
stock to pasture too early.
Who knows beans There are said to
be over 400 varieties of them.
Give animals change of food; even 4
change Of pasture is beneficial.
When smut once gets started in a corn
plant there is no remedy for it.
Trees for cemeteries. Weeping birch,
cypress, white pine. arbor vitr.
Make good use Of your rake in the
garden to keep down the young weeds.
Poor fences are one cause Of "breach"
cattle. Have good line fences, anyway.
little farm we'll titled returns the
most profit for the labor bestowed upon
it.
All egg, left too long in the nests dur
ing very cold weather will crack from the
effects Of frost.
Kill every white grub you discover
when planting corn. They are sure to
make trouble later on.
A good garden is the most profitable
patch of the size on the farm. 1t is
lesson on the advantage Of high culture.
Nothing produces better colorcd milk
than good clover hay and corn meal.
They make fairly balanced milk ration.
Sour swill is one Of the sources of
disease in the hog. Much Of it is kept
until it becomes too acid for even a hog.
The workingmen at the trades want
only eight hours in their day Of labor, but
the farmer knows no time limit but dark
ness.
Be careful that the collar. Of the har-
ness be kept clean and we'll adjusted.
Called shoulders are cruel 10 pull

1t is said that a Frcnchman has dis
covered that By watering dahlias with
tcpid water u delicious aroma IS impaired

The orchard is the place for the pigs if
they can be kept there. They pick up
the early, wormy apples and keep the soil
stirred.
Work horses need good fare, and
should not be expected 10 do heavy work
on grass alone. And let them have plenty
Of water.
Unthreshed oats make a good feed for
horses, and some ike them better than
the grain alone, or the grain and straw
feed separately.
Cattle already infested with lice should
be thoroughly carded and washed with
warm soap water in which a little kcro-
senee has been added.
A horse with a welI-ftting harness,

The OX-team is not to be despised for

better than horses.

One of the Rich Caldwell Sisters Weds
Baron.
[By United Press.l
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-THE
wedding of Lena Caldwell, one OF the
rich and somewhat eccentric sisters,
whose large fortunes have long been
coveted by the titled gentry Of Europe,
and the Baron Won Zadwine, German
minister to Mexico, took place this morn
ing in the chapel connected with the
new Catholic university which has been
largely built by the munifcent gifts of
the Caldwell sisters. The event, though
a notable one, has not stirred society to
it's depths, for the young ladies have not
been part of the social structure here.
Bishop Spalding, of Peoria, the spirit
ual guardian of the Caldwell sisters,
performed the ceremony, assisted by
Bishop Keane, the rector of the univer-
sity. Miss Fry, Of New York, the other
guardian of the sisters, gave the bride
away. At the conclusion of the mar
riage service, low mass was celebrated.
The bridal couple held an informal re-
ception in the vestibule of the chapel,
and were then driven to the Arlington
Hotel, where wedding breakfast was
served to a select few. A unique fea
ture was the decoration with orange
blossoms of the bridal carriage and the
horses attached to it. Baron aid Bar
ronness Zadwine left to-day for the City
of Mexico.

THE r. X. INvESTIG ALTON.

The r. r. Inyes;ig ton Committee
has already done good work, and they
yesterday elected facts that show:
FIRsT-That the North Carolina r. r.
is liable for taxation. OF course this is
not admitted by all, but the evidence
taken shows that this road ought to pay
taxes to the State. We hope that the
Committee can show that the Rail-
Road is liable, and will make it plank
down its proportion of the burdens Of
the State taxation.
SECoND-That the Express Companies
pay only about 5000 a year tax to the
State and counties. They will prob
ably recommend that in the future the
Express Companies be taxed per mile as
they are taxed in Virginia. This would
be an Improvement.

For Sheriff of Wake.

Especial Cor. of STATE CHONICLE.1
We see that Mr.. G. P. Rand is spoken
of as candidate for sheriff of Wake
county. After an interview we find that
he is not in the field of office-seekels and
has no intention of placing himself there
but we are confident that if nominated
by the Democratic convention, he will
answer his country's call and rush for
ward with the standard of his party with
such force that will sweep u opposition
from before him with that ease and
grace which have characterized his
movements in the past and made for
him friends wherever he is known. He
is man of fine business abilities, q
man of sound Judgment, high social
standing and good moral worth. A man
with a record that has no stain, an un.
blemished character and above all q
stannch and unyielding Democrat who
would throw his whole soul in work te
rescue the office for his people. So gen
tlemen of the convention give us RANT
as our sheriff and we will insure q larp,
majority.

Mr.. Gladstone Challenged Mr.. Bal.
four to Prove His Assertions.-Mr.
Balfour Modified His Language.
TBy United Pressl
LONDON, June 17.-There was an ex-
citing scene in the House of Commons
this evening. growing out of Parnell-
ite demand for an explanation on the
part of Mr.. Balfour of the maltreatment
of the people of New Tipperary by the
police on the occasion Of the celebration
of Mr.. O'Bryan's marriage by parades,
bonfres, etc.
Mr.. Balfour denied the charge that
the people had been maltreated for cele-
brating Mr. O'Brien's marriage; that
they had been maltreated at all. The
police had extipguished the bonfres, but
only for the reason that they obstructed
the streets.
Mr.. Parnell and Mr.. Clancy questioned
Mr.. Balfour in regard to the system of
''shadowing," prevalent in Ireland, and
asked how 'sshadowing" would prevent
boycotting.
Mr.. Balfour said that no one in Ire
land had been shadowed unless he en-
gagged in intimidating others. When in
timidation ceased he said shadowing
would be stopped. Mr.. Balfour then al
luded to the crimes which had been COM
mitted by the Irish, his remarks having
the effect to exarperate the Parnellites
Mr.. Dillon in a violent manner demand
ed an apology from Mr.. Balfour for the
use of the word ''crime' and Mr.. Gill
gave Mr.. Balfour the lie.
Mr.. Gladstone challenged Mr.. Balfour
to prove his assertions that the Liberals
had engaged in, encouraged or abetted
crime. Mr.. Balfour substituted the
words s'boycotting and intimidation" for
"crime'' and on appeal to the speaker
| the subject was drOpped.

NEW YORK, N. Y, June IA. = OF course
we meet many North Carolinians here;
and how pleasant it is to meet home
people away from home. A cordial
greeting was extended US by Rev. Thos.
Dixon, Jr., pastor of one of the churches
here. He is doing a grand work, and
has been obliged, owing to the crowds
which throng to hear him, to preach in
Association Hall, his church being all
too small for the congregation.
A visit to Greenwood that beautiful
'city of the dead" was a part of our
programme on yesterday. Clad in the
habiliments of spring and just as the
sun was sinking one could but be forci-
bly, reminded of the words of the Ger
man poet, Gluck:
Methinks it were no pain to die,
On such an eve, when such sky
Der canOpies the west.
And looking from an elevation, all the
city lying just beyond, teaming with
hustle and business, we thought of the
life that is. Around and about us lay
the silent dead, reminding us of the
life that was, while the church spires
pointing heaven-ward suggested very
forcibly the life which is to come.
Our attention was called to the grave
of Sunset Cox, which, on Decoration
Day had been literally loaded with
floral oferings-a tribute-we under
stand-from the news boys of New York
and Jersey City. But the shadows are
lengthening and SO we return
to the City and spend a most de
lightful evening with friends. By the
way, we have, through the courtesy OF
an ex North Caroliniau, admission to
the rooms of the N. Y. Southern SO
ciety, on 25th street, and access to all the
Southern papers. New York is GER
tainly great place, and is now being
very thoroughly "done up" by
