COMING OF THE WISE MEN.
Rev. DIR. Faude Speaks of the
Child Jesus at Gethsemane.

CIlllu - cSuS at 0cCnScmdne.
Rev. DR.. Faude, the mi1ister-elect of
the Gethsemane Episcopal church,
opened his sermon yesterday by speak
ing of the child Jesus and the coming
of the three kings TO do him honor; and
for this reason the time from Epiphany
TO Septuagesima, was made most
sacred. How at that time Herod, hear
ing of the things to come, issued
an order that all the children
under two years of age should
be put to death, and told of the flight of
Joseph and his family into Egypt to
avoid the wrath OF Herod; how Christ
was the lord of nature and of the con-
ception OF poetry whish exists in the
breasts of all human beings. All of
Gods handiwork is beautiful to the eye;
the stars, the rainbow. and even Ihe
n0wers of nature, though full of awe,
inspire admiration. This beauty may
be applied TO religion also. All of the

Sweet Potatoes VS.. Carrots.

We have had several years experience
in feeding the sweet potatoes (raw) to
horses, and we offer it as superior to the
carrot in every respect. Touching the
value of the latter, we quote from the
Rural New Yorker: Nothing pays bet
ter than small space devoted to the
raising of carrots. Fed to horses through
the winter they give best results. They
are better for horses than any other kind
OF roots. Few people seem to know how
much horses will enjoy bite of some
thing green during the winter. Those
who know it have discovered one of the
great secrets of keeping q horse in health
Give q horse a daily ration of chopped
carrots during the winter, and grain will
be saved and the horse will feel brighter.
Most farmers seem to think that the
carrot cannot be raised except by hand
culture, and consequently it will not pay
to meddle with them. The carrot does
not require hand culture to q greater de-
gree than any other rOOtcrOp, but FIRST
rate crop can be got when the roots are
set one foot apart in rows two feet wide.
Try small patch OF carrots, and see if
they don't pay"
Carrots can be planted in Florida in
September or October and they will re-
main good in the ground till the next
June or July and can bepulled as wanted
for feed.-ED.]

Novel Method of Removing Rats.

Texas farmers have been almost ruined
by the depredations of rats. To get rid
of them a novel expedient has come into
use. The farmer finds a burroW in which
from fifty to hundred rats reside.
Every exit save one is carefully stopped.
At this one is placed q common iron tea
kettle. Opposite the spout is bored
hole in which is inserted piece OF gas
pipe about a foot long. Over the spout
is placed another piece of pipe, which is
run into the opening leading to the bur-
row. A fire is then built in the kettle
and /. couple of handfuls of sulphur
thrown on the Goals. The top being
closed, the fumes are driven into the
burrow by hand bellows, the nozzle of
which is inserted in the top pipe. Some
Of these burrows are fifty yards in length
the fumes go through all it's passages,
and in five minutes every young and old
rodent is dead.-EX.

Save the Grasses.

The Atlanta Journal in urging the peo-
pie of Georgia to make their own hay is
doing them q most valuable service, and
the people of Florida would do well to
heed and follow in their tracks. 1t says:
"This is an economy which we urged
on repeated occasions last year. Whether
we can claim that it was in any part due
to our advice or not, it is apparent that
the farmers in this section are buying
less northern and western provender
than formerly.
'"This is an opportune time to repeat
the advice. We are apparently emerg-
ing from q drouth which has tOughened
and stunted the grasses, and probably
cut short the fodder supply to some ex-
tent. But with suitable seasons there
will be a renewed growth and succulence
of grasses in the fields and meadows, and
q saving OF it at the proper time will be a
saving of money next winter and spring.

he has plowed it once in nine years; there
are oranges there every year, trees now
with twenty boxes to the tree, and again
no "open top" business; the tree pruner
seems not to come that way.
Then we will skip over to Lake Howell
and see Geo. A. Heines' grove; see where
he has hauled out under each tree two
two-horse wagon-loads of that "innocent
amusement" fertilizer-saw grass swamp

see the happy look of those beautiful
trees, with their broad tops and countless
wide leaves that are drinking in from the

the "great tree" as well as the great

SUICIDE OF A BANKER.
He Tires of Battling in the Business
World

New YORK. October 23d.-Blakely Creighton,
banker OF Broadway, was this morning found
dead in his office, having shot himself during
the night. The body was cold and rigid when
found, death having evidently occurred some
hours before. The dead man lay OF so'a with
a revolver having an empty shell in one of its
chambers, at his side. On the Office table lay
several sealed letters. One was addressed to his
wife, and one to his partner II. II. Brigham
An open letter was addressed ITO ali whom it
may concern" and read as follows: Il have
fought hard business battle and have made d
square fight but lost. My brain has given way
and now my body must go. Please break the
news gently to my wife" George. Crosby, the
cashier, said; 81 left him at the office yesterday

spirited. As tar as 1 know his accounts are all
right. He had no financial difficulties, think"
Creighton was the son of the laie Commodore
Creighton of the United States Navy.
The autopsy developed the fact that death
was not caused by a bullet but by poison. A
large quantity of morphine was found in the
stomach. Apparently he swallowed so much
that it produced hemorrhage. IL was this that
accounted for the presence of blood in the sui
cides mouth, which created the impression that
he shot himself there.

Both Parties Putting Forth Their Utmost
Endeavor to Carry the State

WASHINGTON, October 22d.-A gentleman Just
returned from Indiana, speaking OF the comm 2
election said the result in the State in great
doubts Both sides are making a remarkably
earnest campaign, and the greatest anxiety is
felt by the mans gers of both sides. The Legis-
lature TO be elected this fall elects successor to
Voorhees,, so that the interest in the State
ticket is at least as deep as that in the Con-
gressGnal districts. Senator Voorhees, is candi-
date Tor reelection and his friends claim that
the Legislature will be Democratic. On the
other hand, the Republicans are very ssnguine
and believe that they can carry the Legislature
as well as a majority of the Congressional dis
tIiets. 1t is said that President Harrison will go
home to vote. The most Interesting bit of infor-
nation brought TO Washington from Indiana is a
statement that Colonel W. ~. Dudle7 Is actively
engsged in the direction of the campaign, and
that If the Legislature goes Republican he viii
be by all odds the most prominent candidate for
United States Senator.
