. Tt seems as if Providence had

especially favored the farmers Of
this country this year. Rain and
sunshine have come when most desir-
able; the weather could not have been
better if made to order. The biggest
crop ever seen in the country is now
nearly ready for the sickle. In a few
days more OF such nice warm weather
as we are having, nature will have
finished her work, and mans work
will commence. The harvesting and
threshing OF such an enormous crop
involves vast amount of labor.
But it is cheerfully done. The cut
ting Of wheat will begin next week ;
the cutting OF oats and barley have,
in fact, already commenced.

= Albert Garwin, warden Of the
State Prison, at Saltwater, was in
the city last Friday in the interest OF
the prison binding twine industry
He brought samples OF twine manu-
factured there, some OF kentucky y
hemp and some OF native Minnesota
fiber 1t has been tested and has
given very good satisfaction. The
plant is capable OF turning out 5000
pounds day and is operated by 20
men. The establishing OF that indus,
try at the prison was q most excell-
ent move and has already been the
means of saving thousands OF dol.
lars to the farmers Of the state. 1t
has caused reduction OF 3 to- )
cents a pound on all kinds OF twine
"a reduction that would otherwise
not have been made. 1t is possible
now to get pure MANILA at nearly
the same price as the prison twine
The prison made twine is sold direct
to the farmers at cost. Whether
farmers buy of this twine Or not, the
plant has accomplished u good pur
pose, but it seems as iffarmers every
where ought to patronize an in
dustry that has been established
through their efforts and for theil
special benefit.
| Mr.. Garwin is q very pleasant
gentleman, and we believe that Gov
Merriam exercised good Judgment il
selecting him as warden.

INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

A well attended meeting Of the Wan
a ykuck and Geneva Weavers Protective Asso-
Ia alton was held last night in the hall on Has
seifstrcet; and\ about 200 members were pres
ert. The principal topic of discussion was the
prevailing dullness i'm business, as about 100
looms are at present idle In the Wanskuck
mill Opinions differed as TO the causes of
this lack OF work, but the best explanation
given was that for some cause the lightweight
season, which is now nearing its end, had been
more than usually dull, but that there was
every reason TO believe that the approaching
heavyweight season would be one of the best
for years. This explanation seemed TO afford
the weavers much satisfaction.
II is proposed to organize in Boston a labor
and social organization that will aim 10 bring
men of all schools of reform into closer con-
tact.

Prof Castroni Is out with challenge TO

COMPLAINS that referee Rondelle didn't act
souarely and that Prof. Lewis wasn't al

he must surely have won, ana

$3.50 a side, with the proviso that
somebody beside Rondelle must be ref
cree and that his protege, Lewis, must he

posted $40 as a forfeit, TO bind the match.
How different from the last challenge
The forfeit at that time was 500, but that
was before they had bet five 10 one
that Lewis would win. It's hard
co imagine way for Davis TO win
$3.50 easier than by going against Lewis
again. Some people are hard 10 satisfy.
II is the ambition of Prof Castronis life
10 see Davis defeated, and he doesn't in
tend 20 give up the idea without a struggle.
But i'm his challenge he seems TO forget
two things First, that it robs himself,
who acting as Lewis representative, chose
Prof. ROndelle rs referee, and again that
the choice of foils was left TO Prof. Lewis,
and that he chose the ones used in prefer

GOLD FOR NEWSBOYS.

More About the Prizes the "News" Is
Offering.
One of the NEWS staff asked Q newsboy
last night which paper sold the best.
"The NEWS" said he.
This is lucky for the lads who are work
ing so pluckily for the gold prizes the
NEWS is offering.
Every newsboy in Providence must know
by this time, or certainly ought TO know,
that the eight boys who sell the most
copies OF the NEWS for the first month of
its existence will get prizes in gold of from
$40 for the leader and SIS fSr the second
down TO So.
Besides the eight leaders there are lots
of boys who are selling from twenty to
forty copies every night, and others who
can easily do so. The News is going TO
give g.. 80 in gold to every boy who sells
an average of 40 copies a night for a
month, and 81 in gold To every boy who
sells twenty copies. A good many boys
began on this record last Monday. Any
body who didn't but who would like to do
so can begin next Monday.
The newsdealers are doing finely. Mrs.
Quinn is leading for the $40 gold first
prize and Tierney, Champlin, Murphy
and Others are coming along well. More
Of that later.

a Passing Face.

Twas but n moment. Long enough to feel
The grateful presence of her quiet grace,
And at her beauty's shrine a moment kneel
TO mark the sweetness of her gentle face.
To catch a glance from out her downcast eyes,
A heeting light of violet, more rare
Than all the colors of the summer skies,
That but moment fingered fluttering there.
A moment. Then she vanished; yet to stay
Within my memory as some distant strain
OF music, rising slowly, dies away,
But fingers yet when all is still again;
Or as dream that fits across the mind
When care is bound by all-forgetting sleep
Too soon will vanish. but yet leave behind
4 gentle sweetness that the senses keep.
If fate had been but kinder. Who can tell
Our paths had been the same, and hand "a
hand
Together We had wandered DER the fell
And crossed the border Of the unknow1 land?
We met to meet no more. Upon the sea
OF life we pass like ships. A moment seen,
A signal shown, a shout thrown cheerily-
Then darkness, waves and distance stretch
between.

And golden the future far stretching away.

The bright rippIes play and the wind Is or

While the red light of the morning is failing.
Sturdy and strong sails the bark-dip theoarl
Two, hand in hand. climb over the mountains,
Footsore and weary from tempest and toll,
With only moment to drink from the fount-
aims,
Renewing their strength for tomorrow's tur-
moil.

Sit By the shores of the beautiful Past.
Whose solemn waves break with wonderful
story

Talk of the winter that leads to the spring,
Two sit and dream. over faggot and ember,

Two lie at rest under blossoming roses;
Winter sifts over them gently the snow;
Sunlight Of summer above them reposes;
Their places are filed, and the years come

RESIN.

A small piece of resin dipped in the
water which is placed in vessel or
stove, it is said, will add a peculiar prop
erty to the atmosphere of a room, which
will give great relief to persons troubled
with cough. The heat of the water is
sufficient to throw eft the aroma OF the
resin, and gives the same relief that is
afforded by combustion of the resin. 1t is
preferable to combustion. because the
evaporation is much more durable. The
same resin may be used for weeks.
