THE FEAST OF MoNDAMIN.
While the harvest days are passing,
And the corn is ripe and plenty
Waiting for the jolly huskers,
When the merry youths and maidens
Hunt and find the lucky red ears
And the fOrfeits claim for finding,
Comes the hearty invitation
OF aunt Dinah to her party;
Of aunt Dinah and her Reuben
TO her jolly husking party.
Come, she says, to youth and maiden,
Bring with you the aunts and cousins;
Come and lend hand at husking
When the husking bee is over
And you feel the pains of hunger
Then will come the feast, Mondamin,
Feast of maize in dainty morsels
Often spread in Indian wigwams,
Which the valiant Hawatha
And the gentle Minnehaha
Gave at first to the Dacotahs
As gift of the Great Spirit.
Come and see the jolly huskcrs,
Come aud listen to the music,
Come and hear the recitations,
Come and eat the feast, Mondamin,
All at the Town Hall Thursday evening,
On the Goth OF November
In South Londonderry village.

The Track Has Now Been Laid Distance
OF Seventy-Three Miles.
Wilmington MESSENGER

W iIlItNStOiI -ncSSeuScT. .rg+f
Captain John A. Dodsen of Chester,
S. c., superintendent of the Georgia,
Carolina and Northern Railroad, was
in the city Wednesday, and a Messen-
ger reporter learned from him some
interesting facts about this line, which
by the way is one of the most import
ant railroad enterprise now under way
in the Southern States.
The track has now been laid from
Monroe, n. c., to Enoree River, New
berry County, S. c., distance of
seventy-three miles. A fine iron bridge
has just been completed over the Emo
rec and was ready Thursday for the
crossing. trains. The Tiger river, four
miles from the Enoree, has also been
spanned by an iron bridge.
The track-laying brigade is not at
work beyond the Enoree, andit is
anticipated that by the first of August
they will complete the track to the
town Of Clinton, seventeen miles dis
tance. The grading has been completed
as far as Greenwood, S. c., and it is
the intention to have the trains running
there by the lst of September. This
will then give the road 1lS miles of
completed track, and still the good
work will be pushed rapidly on to
Atlanta.

Decision Rendered in the Township Bonds
Cases. .'

CHARLESTON, S. c., June 25.-An
important rail road case was decided
in the United States Court here to-day.
Some years ago the Legislature passed
an act authorizing certain townships in
the upper section of the State to issue
bonds to aid in the construction of
what is now known as the Charleston,
Cincinnati and Chicago Railroad, The
act constituted the townships a-body
corporate, with power to issue bonds to
the amount Of the subscription to the
railroad. The railroad was built, and
demand made for the bonds, but was
refused. An attempt was made to pass
an act validating the bonds, but failed.
The bonds are deposited with the Bos-
ton Trust company, and this suit was
brought to compel their delivery to the
Southern Construction Company, of
New York, which is building the road.
The court decides that the bonds must
he delivered. This caseinyolves a:dozen-
or more similar cases in the various
upper counties, bonds amounting, per-
haps, to quarter of million dollars
being issued for the construction Of
various rail roads.

whether or not this would end the

well with the soil before sowing the seed
or setting out the plants.
With the small garden plants, or those
grown closer together, like onions, let.
tuce or radishes, good plan is to pre-,
pare the soil in good filth, ready to

TO GET EARLY PLANTS.

When one does not wish to make a
hot bed, early tomato plants may be had
by sowing the seed in rich earth, put in
to shallow boxes and kept moist. The
boxes may be suspended on the inside of
a kitchen window, where they will be
protected from cold and get the sun. l
have practised this for tomatoes and
sometimes also for lettuce, transplanting
into the open ground as soon as the
weather would admit. The warm at
mosphere and moisture of kitchen push
them forward very rapidly, and where
only few early plants are wanted they
can be obtained in this way with but lit
tie trouble. 1t is better to transplant the
tomato plants, when large enough, into a
cold frame or some sheltered position, 50
that they may grow more stocky before
they are finally set out where they are to
stand Transplanting into small pots is
also an excellent way, as these can be ex-
posed to the sun when the weather is
favorable and be covered up OF taken in
side when there is danger of frost. The
potted plants have the advantage over
others that they can be transplanted into
the garden without at all checking
their growth. -Ne,o York World.

TOO FEW NUT TREES.

The country needs more nut trees; they
are easily grown from seed; and generally
it is best to drop the seed where it is de.
sired that the tree shall grow, rather than
to attempt transplanting, AS seedlings
vary in quality and other particulars---just
as is the case with fruit-trees generally
and as it is always desirable to have the
best, hardest and most prolific sort, graft
ing or budding is advisable. We have
succeeded best with budding in the case
of the chestnut and walnut, but Profess
sor Budd says that the trouble in grating
these or the hickories is that the cion is
apt to dry before any union can be formed.
To prevent this, he slips little water
proof cap of oiled paper over each graft
when set, as he does with cherry and

early. AS there are varieties of the
English walnut and the pecan which are
hardy and fruitful as far north as the
lakes, we may hope to add these fine nuts

where they will be greatly appreciated.

WISE WORDS.

Take things as they are and make Tie
best of them.
It costs more to revenge injuries than
to bear them.
Each day is little life; our life is but
a day repeated.
Happiness is to the heart what sun
light is to the body, and he who shuts
out either is an enemy to society.
Stupidity is to the mind what clumsi-
ness is to the body. 1t exhibits just the
same fatal power of mischief in its own
way.
1t is impossible that an ill-natured man
can have public spirit; for how should
he love ten thousand men who never
loved one.
Life is sacred trust to all. He is at
fault who does not take due care of his
own, he is guilty wi o does not respect the
lives of Others.
1t should seem that Incidence itself
would induce person to be honest, as it
requires infinitely greater pains and con-
trivance to be knave.

POULTRY FERTILIZER.

During cold winter is when it is pos
sible to secure the largest quantity of
this fertilizer, as the poultry must be
confined considerable portion of the
time. With little care in gathering up
and storing away properly, so that its
most valuable properties will be retained,
a considerable quantity of valuable fertil-
izer, especially for the garden and small
fruits, may be secured.
1t is very necessary for the health and
comfort of the fowls to keep their quar-
tiers clean, and if this is done the drop

They MYsteriouslY Died.

Three or four years ago young Adam
Forepaugh, the son of the late Snowman,
was over in London. He had spent
about $4,000, and didn't dare ask for
any more money so he wired over to his
father that he had great chance to get
some new attractions for the show. He
said that he could get two monkeys that
were larger than horses for $4,000. The
Snowman congratulated himself on
having such smart boy, and cabled him
the money. He was telling every one
about his new attractions, and if any one
doubted the reality of the alleged big
monkeys he would answer angrily,
tPshaw! What do you know about the
interior of Africal OF course they have
monks there as big as horses" Next
day came cablegram saying: "Money
received; monks dead; much obliged,
pap" The old Snowman never could
stand joke about Monkeys after that
