a Bic Fraud.

From the Walla Walla (Ore.) Journal.
The hest fraud on earth is agricul-
ture. The feadliest 1gnis fatuns
hat ever glittered to beguile and
iazzIe to hetray is agriculture. We
speak with feeling on this subject,
nd we've been glittered and be
guled and dazzled and deceived by
thc same arch dccejver. She had
promised us bees and they flew away
after putting a head on US; promised
US early potatoes and the drought
has Withered them. She has prom
lsed cherries; the curculio has stung
them. They contain living things
uncomely to the eye and unsavorv
to the taste. She has promised Us
strawberries and the young chickens
have devored them. We were in
the sheep business and a hard win
ter closed down on US and the lambs
died in the shell. No wonder that
Cain killed his brother He was a
tiller of the ground. The wonder is
he did not kill his father and then
weep because he did not have grand
father to kill.

THE OLD NORTH, STATE.

Speaking of the oyster resources
of Eastern North Carolina. the
Atlantic Seaside, publisher at Beau

Beaufort Harbor with its tributary
rivers and BogUe Sound all stretch

on the American Continent That
,his vast fed, where countless wealth
of resources awaiting but the arm OF
Industry to turn il into channels Of
commerce, has so long remained
undtveIoped, is simply because the
supply from other sources has been
Sufficient to meetthe demands. The
rapid increase in the population Of
our country, together with a grow
iug demand from foreign mark cts
constitute a drain that has already
we'll nigh exhausted the present
sources ofSupp,y, and un'ess new
fields are opened up, in few years
from now the famous oyster beds of
the Chesapeake and Lynn Heaven
Bays viii have worked to utter de
struction. Already the vendors Of

land Of promise that must preserve

easily be added thereto by a very
small outl y Of time and muscle
The time is ripe for action. This
recent survey and report of the oys-
ter beds Of this country has brought
the matter prominently before the
public and demonstrated the natural
adaptation of the sounds and rivers

growth Of the oyster, and the easy

THEY'LL NEVER KNOW.

How the Dakota Aim .sslon Business Was
Mixed Up Intentionally.
The Administration has q real mys-
terry on hand, says the Washington Star,
and the best OF the joke Is that 1t will
remain q mystery until time shall be no

for testimony which shall indicate that
1t was admitted to tho Union n few graf
flying seconds in advance of South Da-
kota, and South Dakota % hunt till the
crack of doom for evidence that would
give TO 1t q similar desirable seniority.
The question OF priority must forever
remain unanswered, simply because no
one can answer It.
When the President received from the
State Department the two proclamations
wanting only his signature this question
Of priority at once came up, and 1t was
found to be difficult TO decide.
1t was a grave situation for the Presi-
dent and he evidently realized it, but he
stored his way out without difficulty.
The documents, unlocked at, were laid
face downward on the desk on @ sheet OF
paper, and then they were shufned until
the most export trickster at cards could
not have told which was which.
When this stage OF the game had been
reached the proclamations were turned
face upward, but protected from the gaze
Of every ono by tho sheet of paper on
which they had been laid. The shee,
was slipped aside until the blank spaces
for tho Presidential signature were ex.

A OuARTETTE OF GIRLS,
An Astonishing Domestic Occurrence
"A IaNla EnmIlN.

An Astonishing Domestic Occurrence ia
u Texas Family.
The State of Texas, which carries the
palm for largo areas and other good
things, varies the monOtony of political,
off years by increasing its population
in the most unexpected and surprising
ways. Tho little town of lngersoll,
thirteen miles west of TeXarkana, on
the cottOn-belt route, furnishes a story
which for years TO come will surely be
the cap shcaf. The story related by the
Kansas City Times special correspond
ent at Texarkana retutes the gen
eral theory that h negro race is popu-
lating the South SO much more rapidly
than the whites.
1t also shows the great possibilities
Of the New South. Incidentally It Is q
terrible warning to young men who
have married Texas widows. AS mar
rated by the Times special correspond
ent the story reads this way:
On the morning Of January 10 Mrs. E.
t. Page, of Ingersoll. gave birth to 3
girl baby of six pounds weight. This
happened at nine o'clock.
The father was much delighted with
Ghe lltCle youngSJer.
At 11:30 a companion girl arrived.
The second edition weighed four and Q
half pounds. The fathers Joy was,
doubled. Two girls had arrived to bless
the home circle.
At one o'clock another girl arrived.
The third addition weighed four pounds.
The father, trembling and pale, re-
marked TO the attendants thai he was
much pleased.
At Ito q fourth girl, weighing fve
pounds, arrived to complete the family.
The father tainted.
After recovering consciousness he
rushed to the telegraph office. Taking
the operator aside, he whispered be-
tween his set teeth: 81 can lick any man
in Texas to-day"
"What's he matter?" gasped the as
tonished agent.
my wife has just presented me with
four girl babies"
Without waiting to hear more the sta
ton agent, who was u newly-married
man, escaped by a side door and has not
yet returned.
On January Is the happy father visit
ed Texarknna and took out to his home
at Ingersoll o cradles, lease of sooth-
ing strip, half a dozen bottles of pare
goric, sixteen dozen safety pins, eight
nursing bottles and q Jersey cow. The
motherof thequsrtette of Texas babiesis
q slight, pleasant-faced woman weigh
ing about 125 pounds. She was former
ly q Miss Atwood, and Ia q native Of
Texas. About fifteen years 4 she
married a Mr.. Lupton. After his death
four years ago she was married to Mr..
E. T. Page, of lngersoll, Tex. Mr.. Page
is a small man. weighing about Ito or
115 pounds.
In their three years of married life
Mrs. Page has twice presented her hus-
band with twins, going that two better
with the quartette Of girls, making eight
children in three years. The fond hus-
band and happy father expresses q be-
lief that there will be six or more the
next time.
