No other one of the Congressional
aspirants takes his defeat in the recent
convention more cody than the Hon.
A. B. Bowman. And no other one will
be more earnest in his support of the
nominee. His friends being among
the first to make tho break for Mr.. An
derson nothing but harmony and best
wishes can prevail.-Johnson City
Staff.
The last sentence in the above para
graph requires correction. By mutual
agreement, and in the interest of the
county ticket, Mr.. Bowman was per-
mitted to name three gentlemen on the
delegation to Morristown, with the I'M
derstanding that they would support
MI. Brownlow, when Mr.. Bowman was
out of the contest. Mr.. Brading carri-
ed out the agreement, but Mr.. West
and Mr.. Ford voted against Mr.. Brown
low IA times, notwithstanding Mr..
West had said to Judge Smith that
Brownlow was his second choice. In
all the votes taken upon every PROPOSE
tion Mr.. Bowman's two votes, all he
had after Mr.. Brading joined the Brown
low men, never were cast for anything
favored by the balance of the Wash
ington County delegation, except one
time, and that was to adjourn for din
ner. For several ballots previous to
the last one, these two votes were cast
for MI. Anderson, but when the Brown
low mep at his request arranged to
nominate Mr.. Anderson on the Hath
ballot these two votes representing all
the positive strength Mr.. Bowman had.
changed from Anderson to Milburn.
These facts are made necessary to cor
rect the impression intended to be con-
veyed in the above article, and because
it is due the people of this county to
know that NJ. Brownlow never received
the solid vote of the county, the only

CHAPTER XXI

One night not long after this Calicot
woke Lieut.. Stocking up about twelve
o'clock rather urgently. Listen" he
said.
His friend sat up on his cot and re-
marked that Calicot looked very white
in the dim light The harsh hum Of
many voices reached him in confused
and disagreeable way, intermingled
with occasional shouts of command
and the tread of feet and accompanied
by the loud drone of the machinery.
what Is it2" he asked.
Hendricks is sending up all his
forces. II has been going on now for
two hours. Get up and dress yourself;
the women are frightened. 1 think a
battle is going on overhead or Is inn
pending"
Stocking then got up and the two
men went into the adjacent quarters,
where they found Miss Endicott with
shawl around her head and Miss La
port rubbing her hands. Both of the
women were very much alarmed, as in
deed they well might be with all that
hideous din going on in the arena.
Calicot then explained to them as calm
ly as he could thut the armed forces
were being sent up as fast as the lift
could carry them. There is" he said,
"a struggle about to take place. Let
us preserve our wits so that we can use
to the best advantage the only means
we have Of obtaining information"
Miss Endicott, in spite of her trepi-
dation, appeared to understand the sit
uation, and when Calicot asked her II
she could put herself en- rapport with
Mrs. Hendricks, she answered prompt
ly: eyes. 1t requires no effort what

Stable manure has a tendency to pro-
duce a strong growth of wood when ap-
piled heavily in the orchard. This Is
more especially true of the young rather
than the older orchard 1t In generally
believed that nitrogen is n leaf and
stem former, while potash produces the
fruit Good rich stable manure gener-
ally contains high percentage of nj
trogen, hence may become detrimental
when used out of proportion to the
potash and phosphoric acid. These
latter two elements are generally
more needed, and 1t Is for this
reason that wood ashes and bone
meal can be applied to many varieties
of fruit to a better advantage than
fresh stable manure. One Of the advan-
tages In using either ashes or bonemeal
Is that they are more readily soluble
and sooner available than the average
stable manure.

ONE STREAK OF GOOD LUCK.
A Minionaire's Story of n Pivotal Experl-
ence in Boyhood's Days.

A MIllionaire's Story of q Pivotal Experi-
ence In Boyhood's Days.
"What is the luckiest thing that ever
happened to you?" Herald man asked
of New York millionaire.
do you mean sheer, unadulterated
luck-something that just happens
without any seeking on your part?" re-
piled the millionaire.
''Well, yes; let it go at that"
81 am generally accounted a very
lucky man by the thousand and one peo-
pie who know more about me than !
do myself. But, on my honor, what !
call a genuine piece of good
luck happened to me only once in my
life. 1t didn't amount to much, though
it meant much to me at the time. 1t
was when l was filing my first job
that of an errand boy at three dollars
q week-and tell you ! have never
since felt so rich as when / carried
home my first three dollars. had
been given check to cash and bill
to pay. After paying the bill / had
thirty-seven dollars of my en-
ployer's money left. / had
just crossed broadway, when, happen
ing to look back, saw two men fight
ing In the street. / was enough of a
boy then to take keen interest in
anything like scrap l retraced my
steps to see what it was all about To
my amazement and surprise / discov-
cred that the two men were fighting
about the thirty-seven dollars and the
receipt bill, which in some mysterious
fashion had dropped out of my pocket.
A policeman happening along at that
moment l was able to prove that had
q better right to the property in dis
pute than either of the two combatants,
and recovered it forthwith. They had
each grabbed for it at the same time,
and each was bound to get all or none
luckily for me. | have often specu-
lated upon what might have happened
II they hadn't quarreled. / should
never have recovered the money, and,
in consequence, l should certainly
have lost my situation. That might
have changed the whole current of my
career, and instead of being a rich
man / might to-day have been a poor
devil, or / might have been twice as
rich as am. Who knows? Anyway,
regard 1t ms the only piece of down
right, simon pure, unmistakable good
luck that ever befell me. But any
Tom, Dick or Harry that you chance to
meet win be able to tell you lots of
luckier things that have happened to
me. Some of them things that had
worked at for years."

IN the light of what i a4rvauy
know" said Calicot, 1T is plain
enough Let rae interpret it. Hendricks
has lost thirty-two men in the fight,
and he has driven of his opponents.
He now has twenty-four hours before
a larger force will arrive. In that time
he expects to consummate his plans by
having all the head conspirators here
in the Laran where they cannot be
disturbed Mrs Hendricks and the
men who were with her are on their
way here now. Bayou clear, means
that they shall come to that entrance
and Hendricks will have force to
meet them. By calling in Mrs. Hen
bricks, it is very evident that he does
not need the cottage any longer and is
ready to emerge into an open fight.
From all that have been able to de-
duce. | think he is calculating on
hundred thousand men in the country
who have been secretly preparing
themselves for the signal of outbreak
and who viii flop to his standard when
he takes the field. The men who are
to meet here will represent the differ
ent wings and elements of that
revolt"
"And you still think" said Stocking,
with a rather pathetic stare, that this
diabolical and crazy anarchist will
continue to meet with success?"
''I am afraid that he will up to n GER
tain point. He is using elements that
can only expend themselves in explo-
sion. He is now calculating with an
ingenuity that is both devilish and
magnificent how to surprise and de-
stroy the forces that will be sent here.
With every new genius in villainy, So
ciety has to take lessons in defeat be-
fore it can take the perpetrator, simply
because society does not concentrate
its energies on the study of villainy.
But it is not our business now to spec
ulate on reform, but TO save ourselves.
You promised to do as bade you, and
I have promised to save you If you
will"

why IL Needs Plentiful Supplies OF Phos-

One of the most important requisites
for making apple trees bear early is to
furnish them plentiful supplies of phos-
phate and potash. The tree can usual
ly find enough potash In fairly fertile
soil to make sufficient wood and leaf
growth, but 1t cannot produce fruit un-
less II has an excess of potash and some
addition Of phosphate also. These min
erals are necessary to make the most
vigorous and healthful leaf growth,
and are still moro essential In produo-
ing fruit The large number OF or
chards that have been lately planted
and have proved Improbable owe their
failure mainly to the fact that they
were originally planted on land whose
mineral fertility had been exhausted
by long-continued grain cropping. In
many cases the orchard was planted
because the soil would no longer pro-
duce grain crops II any manure was
applied 1t was usually stable manure.

The potato on tomato plants pro-

People passing the Realty block
recently have been attracted by o
novel sight in the window of one of
the vacant storerooms, says the Ana

porter sought out Mrs. Childs, the
landlady Of the building, to learn II
possible whether or not she intends to
start q poultry ranch in a three-story
brick block In the city, and II she is
to learn how she proposes to run IT,
Mrs. Childs demonstrated very easily
that she knows what she Is doing, and
that she can do It successfully. She
has started to raise broilers for the
market, and intends to do ID In her

are on the third story, and In one OF
her rooms she has two incubators, one
containing one hundred eggs and the
other two hundred. Here the chick
ems are hatched, and as soon as they
