His Former Prison.
TRENTON, n. j., July 16.-William A.
Hall, who was yesterday convict in the
State prison here, is to-day free man
and the occupant of 81, 200 clerkship
in the prison in which for nearly ten
years he has been confined.
The pardon of William A., better
known as "Oakey" Hall, and his ap-
pointment to responsible position in
the prison, marks the close OF an inter-
esting chapter in the municipal history
OF Newark.
Ten years ago Hall was chief clerk in
the Newark Comptroller's office. Fred
erick A. Palmer was Auditor, and he
was stealing by the thousands. Palmer
kept at his thieving until it amounted
to nearly $500, 900.

himself" said Hall, afterwards, "and /
thought I'd do the same. l took $780,

lie suspected that all was not right in
the city hall and sent n message to the
Common Council urging an investiga-
ton.
The Mayor, a Democrat, was fiercely
assailed by the Republicans for his in
situation. The cutlery scared Auditor
Palmer, and before any active steps
were taken he startled the community
by confessing.
Palmer was sent to State Prison and
died there.
Hall fled to Canada, but was captured
and after long legal struggle was ex-
tradited, tried on the charge OF embez-
cling funds from the Comptroller's Of
flee, convicted and sentenced to twelve
years imprisonment.
He never told what he did with his
stolen money, nor did Palmer, and
neither was charged with being cxtrava-

phically and became well liked in the
institution. 1t Is said that the ticket
of.leave law was first agitated for his
benefit.
When the Court of Pardons met yes
terlay afternoon In the Governors
quarters Mt the State Camp, Sea- Grit,
the prison authorities recommended
that a pardon be granted Hall, whose
term, less Communication for good beha-
vior, was within three months OF expira-
ton.
The pardon was further urged on the
ground that Hall had saved the State
$1,000 during the last eight years by
performing certain clerical duties. AS
soon as the pardon was granted it was
announced that Hall had been appoint
ed TO a $1,000 clerkship in the State
prison.

countless millions, and attack all kinds
OF fruits. The grasshopper plague is
not to be feared more than the rosebugs.
As vet no certain remedy has been dis
covered for combating them, MS 1t IS
difficult to poison them unless the
poison is used in such quantities as to
damage the trees and fruit US well as
adding largely to the expense.
1t is claimed for land plaster that even
in times Of drought II keeps the plants
green by absorbing moisture from the
atmosphere. In some sections, where
plaster has been scattered around the
hills OF corn, this claim has been veri.
fed, the stalks that had plaster around
them not only showing a.greener tinge,
but also withstanding drought better
than the stalks to which no plaster had
been applied.
There is quite a difference in trees
that have been properly pruned and
those that have been allowed to grow
too much wood, go far as the thrift OF
the trees are concerned, as the trees
that have been cut back will produce
more new wood, send out more rootlets
and be in better condition for producing
crop OF fruit the next bearing season.
Experiments made in spraying one
side OF the peach trees with insectides
and leaving the other side untouched
confirm the claim that the depredations
OF the curculio and other insects can be
prevented, as the comparison of thetrees
show great advantages resulting from
spraying.
Do not be afraid to plant more peas
for late supply. II the fall-growing
varieties are used it will do but little in.
jury Ii they fall over. Do not be detcrred
from planting because OF the difficulty
OF providing supports, as they may be
omitted.
1t may be much easier to allow the
trees to have the branches high in order
to permit the horse and cultivator to
work near the trees, but the trees that
are cut back and kept low can be easier
and better harvested of the fruit.
When cucumbers are planted place
some brush near the hills, so that the
vines Gun climb on the brush for sup
port. IN this manner the young cucum-
bers intended for picking can be more
easily picked.
When the pig-pen gives off an odor
that reaches to the dwelling-house, 1t
indicates that more composing material
is needed in the pen.
After each rain the cultivator should
be used II the young weeds are to be re-
moved, and the soil prevented from
baking and becoming hard.
II the young corn is slow coming up,
replant Mt once. Cool nights and too
much moisture in the soil may have
caused the seed to rot.
One protection against borers around
trees is air-slaked lime, literally applied,
first removing the earth around the tree.
Kill the peach-borer, whitewash we'll
around the trunk, and then bank up
the earth around the trees.

AGRIcUIrURA1 NOTES.
Matters of Interest to the IntelligOncor's
Fnrmer Readers. r"

Farmer Readers.
When grass is allowed to produce
seed it exhausts the soil more than
when a crop Of hay is cut before the
seeds are permitted to appear. When
seed heads form the plant has fulfilled
its mission, and has stored in the seeds
q larger proportion OF the mineral ele-
ments than remains in the stalks Of the
plants, in many cases, US the green
plants, when cut down early, consist
largely of water. A grain crop and o
crop OF seed from grass deprive the soil
OF proportion OF all the fertilizing sub
stances existing therein.
Crab grass will now begin to take
possession of the ground. The Only
mode OF keeping 1t down is to kill 1t
when it first appears. After it becomes
established it can only be thoroughly
removed with the hoe. Among the
Seeding Strawberries this season is n
variety that clears itself from the stem
when picked, but it is not adapted for
shipping long distances. AS berry for
fancy use, however, 1t is excellent, be-
ing very sweet. 1t needs no stemming
after it is removed from the vine.
Strawberries have been grown to an
enormous size this season. Mr.. William
Elyins, of Hommonton, n. j., who
ships thousands OF quarts to market,
filed some of the boxes with only thirty
berries to each box, some OF the berries
being three inches in diameter. II the
strawberry continues to improve in size
at the present rate OF progress it will
soon be as large MS the apple. Already
berries have been produced that were
larger than plums.
Heavy sod ground is not easily re-
duced, but ii corn is planted on such
land the keeping down Of the grass will
cause the sod TO rot, and when the next
crop Is planted less work will be re-
quired. One of the best fertilizers, and
the cheapest, is lime, When lime is
freely used and applied every year, the
soil becomes more easily worked, the
available proportion OF plant food isin-
creased, and the manure more quickly
decomposed.
In giving salt TO animals II should be
done in n manner to allow each animal
to partRke of as much as it desires and
prefers, instead OF giving the satin the
food, thereby compelling some animals
to use more salt than they wish, Each
animal has its individual preference,
and the proper mode OF allowing salt IL
to place 1t where the animals can have
access to 1t ut all times, as each will use
only the amount needed.

Lord Randolph Churchill WIN not Sue for
Divorce.
LONDON, July l6.-Tho story cabled to
New York that Lord Randolph Church.
i'll is about to sue for divorce, naming
the Duke Of Clarence and Avondale as
correspondent, is pronounced a pure
fabrcation. Lord Randolph is in Africa,
and will not return here for six months
at least.
The story probably gained its origin
in the fact that three years ago the
Duke, who was then Prince Albert Vic
tor, became enamoured OF Lady Ran
tlolph, but she sensibly sent him about
his business and laughed him out Of his
calf love. Since then he has devoted his
attention almost entirely to young, I'M.
marnedladies, and has'behayed himself
remarkably well.
