paper. In mailing the iron TO the wood
edge of the pan use lath nails every ore
ourth or one-third inch, driving them

row may not split the board. The
paper swells and makes a water tight

SPINNING.
Skill in this matter is very important.
It don't pay to trust tin with holes
punched in it. Get piece of wire
gauze about eight inches square or even
tnore-make light wooded frame same
size with sides and back four inches
deep. The back must be heavy enough
tito sustain the handle, size of broom
stick. Gut board just long enough to
reach across the pan with projections to
rest on the sides Of the pan, aud wide
enough to hang an inch in the juice,
make the first fire of small stuff so AS
to get quick and high heat, and that
may be burned we'll down by the
time the juice comes to the boil. Just
as the first ebulition appears throw in
fresh wood which will damp" the fire,
then, with board just mentioned, sweep
the mass of "scum" to the cooler end
of the pan, and quickly skim it off clean.
The success of this operation is more
important than all the skimming after
wards.
NEUTRALIZING THE ACID.
In the Chinese cane it is best to use
a small quantity OF lime water to neu-
tralize the acid in the juice. 1t should
either flow into the juice as it runs from
the crusher, or be thoroughly stirred in
the reservoir Of juice.
The Florida juice may not need it,
experience will show.
HOW TO KEEP THE PAN FROM BURNING.
So build the wallis Of the furnace that
the pan Will reach three or four inckes
over the walls on all sides, put layer
of sifted wood ashes two inches deep all
around on the wall. Set the pan on
Jar or shove it back and forth till it is
settled down we'll. This is all the pro-
lection the pan needs. Keep the sifted
ashes on hand for renewal.
The Florida syrup is SO much superior
to the best New Orleans. or any other
save natures own Maple, that it is
worth while to try all promising methods.
Syrup from the Chinese cane OF the above
method is easily made as white strained
honey.
There is more money possibly in Flor
ida syrup than in Florida oranges for the
average farmer.
The writer will be glad to hear from
those who try experiments.-S. G. FAIRS.

Syrup Pans.

the world, is reason for encourage
ment in its manufacture. Some exper-
iments with the Chinese cane some
years ago may Zoe of use to the Florida
growers of cane.
In these experiments certain princi-
Piles of manufacture were found to be of
great Importance.
l. The pan must have sides and ends
OF wood. If the sides are wood, and the
sheet iron is bent up to form the ends
the syrup will be darker than if the ends
are wood.
2. The batch in the pan must be
boiled without stopping, and fast as pos
sible until finished. Adding juice or
stopping the boiling by any process,
darkens the syrup.
3, The smaller the quantity that can
be evaporated without scorching at the
finish, the better. AS the rapidity Of
evaporation depends upon the surface
presented to the atmosphere, ann not
upon the quantity in the pan, there Is
no loss by such method. 1t was found
that two and one-half inches depth OF
Juice in the pan would reduce safely land
make about seven gallons Of merchant
able syrup.
4. The pan must be cleaned after
each batch has been boiled. The small
amount sticking to the pan, after the
completed syrup has been poured out, IS
enough to darken the next batch. This
makes it necessary to have two pans for
one opening on the furnace, that fresh.
clean one may 60 on Immediately.
HOW TO MAKE THE PANS.
Get a sheet of ordinary sheet iron, the
galvanized would doubtless last longer,
but will do no better work. The damp
ness of the Florida climate would be
reason for using the galvanized to insure
preservation from year to year. Make
the wood sides of one inch by eight inch
stuff. Cypress would probably be best here,
any wood suitible for water bucket
would answer the purpose. Gut the side
pieces short enough to admit the end
pieces outside, thus mailing the end
pieces on the ends OF the side pieces.
Cut the end pieces so that they will ex-
tend beyond the side pieces, at least
eight inches, and make them eleven
inches wide. Then fit fAnge boards,
same size as the side boards Of the pan,
so that they can be nailed to the side
boards, and stand them so that the
outer edge will reach the top OF the end
boards, this gives these fange boards
fall of three inches toward the pan.
The foaming juice will boil over the
sides, roll up on these fange boards,
which being cool, will check it and
throw it back, the boards catching inn
purities too fine for the strainer. These
impurities can be swept eff with broom
cut back to a stub. If the fange boards
are fastened one inch below the top of
the side boards, holes cut through the
side boards, and these openings covered
with wire gauze, much Of the finer skim
mings can be caught there and swept
eff. it is we'll to put handles on the
pan at each end.
For packing, in all joints use four
thicknesses of common brown wrapping

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
fContinued from first paEe.l


trains much less travelling upon them
For this particular class ample pro-
lection should be afforded them. TIE
brakeman announced the trains sFri-
val at Ardmore last night in positive
and uDmistakabie language. The vic
films were totally jgDoraut Of the true
significance of the announcement,
and accordingly acted upon the i'm
pulse of the moment and started for
the platform of the car. Reaching
the piatfOr m they discovered that the
train was running, and was naturally
impressed with the idea that Ard
more was being passed. and under
took to get off the train. Now of
course to q person who has yer trav-
eled any, or n person who has ever
seen much of railroads, the first
thought that would occur would be
not to attempt to alight. But the
ladies thought they were being car
ried by ArdmoFe and the thought of
the fact must have been to them more
appalling than their hazardous under
taking. so they leaped from the flying
train. AS is customary approaching
stations are called cut while the train
is usually one half or three quarters
Ofa mile distant from the depot 1t
must have occurred to the ladies that
at the time the station was announc-
ed the train had arrived, but as itdid
not stop they became alarmed.
For this class of the travelling public
it seems to us means for tl.eir entire.
safety could and should be devised.
They should never haye been permit
ted to reach the platform at all by
either the conductor, brakeman, or
porter. When stations are Icing ap-
preached and after the announcement
of the same is duly made the doors of
the coaches should be carefully guard
e. and if more attention. in future is
exercised in this direction such
ressing accidents as happened
night will continue to occur. If
why moi? AS before stated, there
many people in this new country
have never rode a mile on the
AID the ignorance will be con-
lously displayed from time to
in this country for many years
Dme
ma CT lent Of almos. identically the
nature happened on a train rul =
into Purcell one Sunday morn
tbout three weeks ago, when a
young country boy lost his life by
jumping of the train when the brake
man called out the station. He
thought, just the same as did the un-
fOrtunates of last night, the train had
arrived at the depot, but as it contin-
ued 10 ran it occurred 10 him that
Purcell Nas being passed, SO he jump
ed off, fell under the wheels and both
legs were cut eff close to the body;
dying afew hours afterwards.
1t does seem that tn ese sort of peO-
pie can in some way be projected,
and if they are not, in the light OF
recent heartrendiug and deplorable
destruction to human life, the railroad
company should be called upon tor
an accounting.

HOUSTON POST says:

american communities should
not be lulled into a feeling of
security because the papers are not
filled with cholera reports. The
disease is still active and spread
ing in Europe.
This statement is all right as an
inducement to Houston to clean
up, but as a statement of fact it is
not of the requisite consistency.
There is official Information
that the cholera is disappearing
from eastern Europe, and that
means it's speedy expulsion from
the western portion of that CONT
nent at well. The vigilance of in
spectors and sanitarians can keep
it within bounds, now that the
sources of supply in the far east
are drying up. There is fiatter-
ing prospect that these shores may
escape the scourge. 1t can be done
by that eternal vigilance which is
the price of safety.

Two REPUBLICS, of the City of
Mexico, keeps very general out
look over the situation in the Uni
ted States, and there are very few
questions of a national character
that it does not note and continent
upon. In late issue, speaking of
the recent decision of the United
States chief justice, in the matter
of the opening of the Worlds fair
on Sunday. Two Republics says:
"The decision of this question
will convince those American pa
pers which are of the opinion that
in the United States all law and
| and justice itself are made to in
cline to the views of the fanatical
minority, that they are mistaken.
That the legislation of the United
States has in many cases been
influenced by religious ideas is a
fact and one which shows that the
state and church are not so abso-
lutely Independent of each other
as Americans generally claim, but
the intolerance of a minority does
not override public opinion, as has
been recently charged by local
contemporaries. This assertion
will be amply proved by the up
holding of the action of the federal
court by public opinion.
That is just the size of it. The
intolerance of a minority does not
override public opinion. 1t tries
to, but it cannot do it you know

THERE is no question of the posi-
ton of the catholic church on the
American school question. No
Catholic is to be denied any of the
privileges Of the church for refus-
ing to send his children to the
church schools and sending them
to the public schools instead.
This is authentic, comes direct from
the Pope, and shows that he is a
man Of liberal views, fully abreast
of the age and alive to the interests
of American catholicism.

THE Corpus Caller complains
that the northern papers have
done a great injustice to that city
by the incorrect statements that
they have published concerning
the assault upon Col. Ropes. The
Caller has no one to blame but
itself. Had it published the facts,
as any other fearless journal would
have done, there would have been
no misapprehension concerning
the affair. The paper that cannot
speak out and give the facts in a
case like this, in which so promi-
nent a citizen as E. H. Ropes is
nearly beaten to death, but takes
refuge in silence, and the excuse
that it does not interfere in the
quarrels of gentlemen, is not
enough of a paper to, be damned
with even a good round objurga-
ton, much less by faint praise.

THE BORDEN VERDICT.


1t is as ungenerous as it is I'M
Just to declare that Lizzie Borden
was guilty of murder, in the face of
the testimony adduced at the trial.
The smart newspapers that are
sitting in judgment on her case
and creating public sentiment
hostile to her are not in an enviable
business. The trial utterly failed
to adduce a single direct point
against her. 1t is of necessity true
that there were circumstances that
seemed to ,implicate her, but not
necessarily so under an unstrained
Interpretation. Those who argue
her guilt do so on the supposition
that she was a woman of such
character as would have murdered
her father and mother for money,
while the entire evidence as to her
character, covering period OF
years, was to the direct con-
trary. 1t was an awful ordeal
to pass through, was that
trial, and the most ordinary COM
passion would suggest that she be
now spared the anguish of an edito-
rial condemnation, at the hands of
journals two thousand miles away,
and to which the facts cannot be
as thoroughly known as they were
to the judge and the jury before
whom she was tried and by whom
she was so emphatically acquitted.
The condemnation of crime is well,
but when the acquittal of all GRIM
inal act is as clear and decisive as
it was in the case of Miss Borden it
is not in the interest of law, good
order, decency, common humany
or fair dealing to reiterate the
guilt of the acquitted and call
down the condemnation of the
community upon them. This is
particularly so in the case of a
modest, cultivated young lady
against whose character there was
no ground of accusation in all
her past. The charity that covers
a multitude of sins, and the manli-
ness that screens woman from all
unnecessary trial and hardship
alike demand that no attempt be
made to reverse the verdict of the
Borden jury, or weaken the force
of the judicial declaration in her
favor. Miss Borden goes out to
the world with the fatal inheri-
lance of this awful trial as an in
destructible possession, an in
heritance of which she cannot be
dispossessed until death relieves
her. This is of itself a burden
intolerable to be borne and the
commonest charity would suggest
that this burden should not be in
creased by any unnecessary and
ungenerouS criticism.
