STRAY Notes.

The time for the threshing of wheat
has come, and the hum Of the thresher
is heard in the land.
Our nurserymen are busy with their
budding, and experienced hands are in
demand.
What about the forest fire up at the
mills last Friday? Did it cause much
damage!
There has been very good and
united effort this summer among some
of our fruit growers to get rid of the
diggers and with very good success.
Many places which were overrun with
them last year are practically free from
the pests. But if you have not killed
them off of your own place, don't be
congrAtulating yourself yet. 1t would
be like the man who, although his own
place was full of Canada thistles, was
congratulating himself that his neigh
bors had got rid of all Of theirs.
Some people seem to think that if
they go fishing or hunting they must
catch or kill all they can or they are
not having a good days sport. But
what use is it to catch "a half bushel Of
trout" and then, after eating few,
throw the rest away? Better have left
them in the river till next time, or for
the next lucky fisherman. 1t is to be

The riots at Coal Creek, Tennessee,
serve to snow how sentiment changes.
The contention by the miners is that
the state has no right to lease its con-
vict labor and allow it to be employed
in competition with free labor. While
We believe the proposition to be true,
that convict labor should not be Il
menace TO free labor, this doctrine was
not held in Tennessee thirty years agc.
There can be no doubt but that some at
least of the miners who are now con-
tending against convict labor were, less
than thirty years ago, bearing arms
manfully and bravely to uphold the
doctrine of slave labor. The difference
between convict and slave labor is
slight, as neither laborer has an interest
in the amount he earns; hence we
judge that these southern men u.e
thoroughly converted.

Tax Collector Stewart comes N for hfs
share Of amusing Incidents The other
hay fat, little, undersized, gray headed
negro man waddled into the apartment
for taxpayers. 1t was early in the morn
ing and he was the only taxpayer there.
BY getting on tiptoes the old negro could
just peep through the window between
the apartments: EGt no one in the tax
Office seemed to see him. At last Mr.

various and sundry noises.

In spite Of all the old tax collector
could say the old fellow handed him
$40. The tax collector returned the

negro when he saw the dollar returned.

The strike of the switchmen at Buf.
falo has caused much annoyance to
shippers, but everything is moving
along quietly. One-half of the militia
of the state has been ordered out and is
now on the ground. Efforts are being
made to have the militia recalled, but
the situation is such that trouble would
follow this action. In consequence,
the time the military will be held is
uncertain, and much i'll feeling is
caused among the militia men, W 20
are kept away from their business.
Many Of them will no doubt lose their
positions Oh account Of their enforced
absence. Postmaster General Wanna
maker has set a good example by con-
tinuingall his clerks who are in the
militia in their positions and under
pay.

In days of old when much distinction
was had in meeting-houses the spelling
of our word pew was pue. In French it
was puye, in Spanish it was poye, bench /;
In Latin it was podiu m, a balcony or ele-
waited place next to the arena, where the
Emperor sat, and in Greek it was pous,
the foot-and IN all cases where the feet
Of the worshiper rested-a raised place
on the floor of the church where one
might sit OF might stand or might kneel.
In Puritan meeting houses the choice
pews were round about the walls, one
step up, and the deacons' seats near the
pulpit wo steps up, and those of the rul-
ing elders one step higher yet. In these
later days, observes the Chicago Herald,
the best pews are in the center of the
church Tho wall pews fetch less price.

Fever of the Feet,

In hot weather corns trouble the aver
age human foot, but frequently there is
a foot fever which seems even more dis
agreeable. This is called rubber foot
fever, aud is caused by wearing rubber
boots or overshoes to an excess. No
chiropodist can cure this complaint, but
the patient must take the matter into his
own hand. The only thing to do is to
bathe the feet frequently, and to keep
them as cool as possible by wearing low
shoes. The removal of the cause is, OF
course, essential, aud rubb.rs should
never be tolerated except in rainy
weather. II used at any other time they
may bring on another attack OF foot
fever. If they are kept on in the house
one has wet feet anyway, for the forcing
of the perspiration will soon soak the
stockings with moisture. 1t was owing
to this that rubber -soled shoes did not
prove successful few years aso.-Yan-

A Tickling Feast.

At recent Neuilly Fair, Paris. which
this year has been of q more attractive
character than ever and visited by many
American residents and tourists, new
fad was introduced which, like the con-
fetti of Italian fame, gave rise to some
serio-comic encounters. Peacock feathers
were sold everywhere, and hundreds of
people were seen carrying them in
bundles through the thoroughfares and
over the sidewalks every day for tho
purpose of tickling the necks and the
faces of the visitors. When the sellers
attempted to transfer the sale aud use of
the peacock feathers to the boulevards
of the city they promptly fell under the
ban of the police. The Partisan dudes
tickling each others noses on the streets
or in the Bois would undoubtedly have
been a very edifyipg spectacle. New

How rapid the Industrial progress oi
the South has been for decade and now
is--rapid beyond the realization evsn-oi
the men thatSare bringing it about--is
sot forth in the Forum by Richard H.
Edmopds, late editor of the Maniac
turersc Record, of Baltimore, whose
life's study has been given to the Sub
ject. Among the most significant facts
set forth by Mr.. Edmonds are these:
Since 1881 the corn crop Of the South
has increased seventy-6vs per cent. as
against seventy-one per cent. in the rest
OF the country; the cotton crop has in
creased from five and half million to
nine million bales---an increase in value,
even with the present low price, OF two
hundred millions of dollars: in 1891
there we're nearly $4,000 miles OF rail-
road in the South, against less than a..
600 In 16S1-a gain of eighty-sevep
per cent. as against gain of fifty.six
per cent. in the rest of the country. The
passenger traffic of the same roads in
creased during the same period $50 per
cent. as against an increase in the rest oil
the country of only 1853 per cent. In
pigiron manufacture the South's output
jumped from 451, 900 tons in 1881 to
1,914, 900 IN 1901 gain of 223 pc,
cent. Us against a gain for the rest Of the
country Of seventy-eight per cent; in
other words, In 1881 the North and
West made more than nine times a.
much iron as the South, In 1891 they
made less than four times as much. Th,
increase in the number Of mill operators
IN the South was 13b per cent. a. against
an increase in New England OF seven.
teen per cent. And so in every line OF
productive activity the marvellous rapid
ity Of increaseis explained, showing that
in assessed valuations tho property oi
the South has in this period very nearly
doubled aud increased from $187 PEI
capita to S27l--a record that is proba.
bly, without parallel in the whole his
tory OF substantial industrial growth.
And in spite Of the temporary depression
( caused by an over production cf cotton,
tie increase goes on.
