been only bad and mlschievous. The wisest
republicans in the south. black as well as

Judge Turner's campaign against free
coinage is not calculated TO help the dem
ocratic campaign which Mr. Atkinson is
making, says 10 to l" contemporary
The campaign against free coinage that
Judge Turner is making is the kind that
is authorized by both the Atlanta and the
Chicago platforms. If the democratic
campaign which MIR. Atkinson is making
will be hurt by Judge Turner's defense
of the platforms, Mr.. Atkinson had bet
ter change the style of his democratic
campaign.

A certain clergyman, formerly of Boston,
but at present preaching in one of the subur-
ban districts had a laughable experience a
snort time aSo, says the Boston Herald. His
congregation is largely made up of thrifty
farmers who rise early and labor late in the
evening. and when on Sunday old Morpheus
GRAPES with them during the sermon and at
times Tor few minutes seems to e getting
the best OF it, why, he understands it all, and
does not complain; therefore the good people
appreciate his merits and say they never had
preacher like him lNow, on Sunday he gave
them most eloquent sermon, and, as usual,
one or two OF the pioUs souls present LAID
thelr heads upon their extended arms, which
In turn rested upon their pew backs, that they
might Letter hear what the good man said.
This was the chance for the god Of sleep, and
soon he had several of the elders in his per-
suadlng arms The minister kept right
ahead, ana in explaining some point he had
made he said:
i know the commentators do not agree
with me. but still take this stand"
Just at this luncture an old farmer in the
rear OF the church managed to get the sticks
out of his eyes" and to gather himself
together enough to hang out auout a minute
longer. when the interesting discourse came
10 an end, and the collection and benediction
followed. Next day the old farmers wagon
drew up IN front of the minister's house, and
the burly farmer shouldered a heavy UuShel
basket and raped at the parson S rear Coor.
1t was opened by the gentleman of the meek
and loWly calling, to whom the farmer sym
pathetlcally said: L heard you say in church
Yesterday that common taters didn't agree

About a year ago Chicago was full of
unemployed people, many of whom were
on the verge of starvation. Thousands
had been left there by the closing Of the
worlds fair and the cessation of work
connected with that gigantic enterprise,
and other thousands were the victims of
the thirty-odd years Of republican mis-
rule of the government, which had just
come to an end. II was estimated that
100000 or more working people were in
restitution. Soup houses were opened
for them aud various schemes for their
relief put into operation. That was just
one year ago. To-day, according TO our
Geographic dispatches this morning,
three in every four Of these people are at
work and earning wages! More wonder
ful recuperative power was probably
never shown by any country. The
regeneration, be it remembered, occurred
during the time a democratic congress
was busy reducing the burdens Of the
people.

A Brescia journal announces the dis
covery Of an anarchist plot TO kill the
king Of Greece. The plot, it is said, was
revealed by an informer. The would-be
assassin was arrested, and letters found
on him in which he was designated to
stab the king. And yet there was one
man in the House, during the session Of
congress just closed, who objected to the
passage Of the bill to shut anarchists out
OF this country.

The Melons in Danger.

If what DIR. Erwin F. Smith of this
state says in respect to a disease, which,
it is alleged, threatens watermelons, is
reason TO believe they are particularly
unfortunate, The blight has badly hurt
the LeConte pear crops for two or three
seasons, and now DR.. Smith says the
watermelons are in danger from a disease
which attacks the stems Of the vines.
In paper which he read before the
American Association for the Advance
ment of Science entitled Watermelon
Disease in the South" the statement is
made that such a disease exists, and that
it has vast destructive possibilities. The
doctor stated that he had observed one
patch of melons that contained 800 hills,
where the entire crop disappeared in four
weeks. 1t seems from the Doctors &C
count the fungus gets into the stem from
beneath the surface and closes the water
ducts The result is the vines wither
and die.
The melon growers of South Georgia
have made no general complaint of this
disease, and hence their melon crops
cannot have suffered greatly from it as
yet. In his paper DR.. Smith did not sug-
gest any remedy, for the reason, prob
ably, that he knows of none If
the melon growers are at all APP
prehensiye about it they should at
once apply to the agricultural depart
ment at Washington for a scientist to
make thorough examination of the dis
ease with the view of suggesting rem
edy. There should be no delay in having
an investigation. The nature of the evil
may be such that once it gets firm foot
mold in any part of the melon section it
would spread rapidly. Such things can
not be attended 10 too soon.

The republicans, with apparent seri-

has had word from an intimate friend of
the ex-President that he would not con-

score Gen. Harrison had concluded that
he would accept 'only in case of an emer-

would he accept" Just try him.
The Philadelphia Record has been max.
ing inquiries into the industrial situation
in Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, West
Virginia and Maryland, and reports that
there is a business boom all along the
line. In Pennsylvania the iron and steel
works are rapidly increasing the number
Of their employees and lengthening the
hours of labor, and in the towns the trade
in the stores is humming. In New Jersey
the glass factories are lighting their fires
for renewed activity, and the big can.
ming factories are rushed with orders. In
Ohio 1900 men have returned to work
within few weeks, and scarcity of water
and coke are the only obstacles to COM
plete resumption. Maryland and West
Virginia are full of life and conditions are
getting better every day. If things con.
tinue to 60 on like this, what are the re
publicans and the populists going to weep
about?

The disturbances at Milwaukee, re-
ferred to in our dispatches of yesterday,
were merely a continuation of the small
pox riots that broke out there three or
four weeks ago. The people who are
making the trouble are ignorant foreign
ers, and a few natives about their equals
in intelligence, who refuse to submit to
the regulations of the board Of health.

cable dispatch from London says
''The past four months show minimum
of sunshine unrivaled in the records of
the century, and, as a sober fact, our
last summer weather was in April. The
trades which depend on the holiday
makers, like the Thames boatmen and
the seaside purveyors, find themselves on
the threshold of bankruptcy" That
amounts to saying that this mas been a
summarizes summer" in England, so
far; and autumn has almost arrived. On
this side of the water, however, condi-
tions have been different. There has
been sunshine enough and rain enough in
the south to make for the farmers a crop
of great bounty, and the summer resorts
have all had good seasons.
