which he always recalls to the credit or
the farmer. 1t would seem that the old ag-
riculturist had warm place In his heart
for boys, and he always gave young Eckels
about twice as many apples for his money
as the market naturally called for. In tact
he sold apples to young Eckels for about
80 cents on the dollar, and this low rate on
fruit very much assisted the youthful mer-
chant in money making.
This, as stated, was long ago. The OLD
farmer has been dead these years, but ne
has son older than Comptroller Eckels,
who is now practicing law IN New OK
City And good lawyer he is; capable,
thorough and honest, although not, per-
haps, growing tremendously rich at MS
profession. When Eckels became comp.
troller of the Currency he was aware OF
the whereabouts and professional fortune
OF this son of the old farmer, who had SO
favored him in the apple business.
In memory of the farmers generosity

which had its emanation in MS department.

A Wonderful Tree.

In the basin of the Congo River grows a
species of tree of gigantic stature, called by
the natives the moab, and belonging to
the botanical family of the Saponac@,
which promises to be very useful to man.
The trunks of these trees at the height
of mans head above the ground are fire.
quently eight or ten feet in diameter and
many of them rise from so to lis feet be-
fore a branch puts out. The bark is ex-
ceedingly thick, as much as five or six
inches in many cases, and it contains an
abundance of milky juice which stiffens
into kind of gutta percha.
The large seeds of the inedible fruit of
the tree are very rich in greasy substance
that can be turned into soap, while the
product derived from grinding the seeds
and COMPRISING them into cakes makes a
valuable manure, and can also be used as
feed for cattle.-Y ouths Companion.

GENERAL WARNER ON DAVIS.

The Comment That Made a Southern
Editor Threaten TO Slap His Face.
Since the publication some time since of
the vituperative remarks called out by
General Willard Warmers memorial day
address at Marietta, Ca, on the part of
the editor of the Atlanta Commercial, who
expressed a desire to slap the generals
face, copy of the address has been re-
celved says the New York Tribune The
portion that especially aroused the chivaI-
ric rage of the Atlanta editor was that in
which General Warner referred to Jeffer-
son Davis, as follows:
Mistaken, misguided and at fault, as
were Lee and Jackson and Johnson and
Stephens, they were great men and of pure
character, and they will not be forgotten
of history. Jefferson Davis was a conspir-
ator against his country He coDspired
with few others to precipitate his coun-
trymen into war by 'sprinkling blood in
their faces He became the head of the
Confederate Government, but was a failure
as President and as military director.
He sought to prolong the war when all
hope OF success was lost by Lees surren-
der, and he was complainingly disloyal to
the day of his death, and died without
having done one act or said one word to
heal the wounds OF a war which he was
largely instrumental in bringing on, or to
promote the peace and welfare of his
country.
Lee, with the greatness of soul which
characterized him, wrote to President
Johnson, June 49, 1865, as follows:
Being excluded from the provisions of
amnesty and pardon contained in the proc
lamation Of the Goth ult., hereby apply for
the benefit and full restoration Of all rights
and privileges extended to those included
in its terms, remarking at the time to his
son, General G. W. G. Lee, it was but right
Tor him to set an example by making
formal submission to the civil authorities,
and that he thought by so doing he might
possibly be in a better position to be of use
to the Confederates who were not protected
by military parole, especially for Mr..
Davis.
"No such patriotic purpose, no such
kindly thought for the men who had
served him and suffered for him, seems
ever to have entered the breast of Davis.
Morose, sullen, unreconciled and unsub-
missive to the last, no kindly words OF
peace and goodwill fell from his lips OF
pen, and to the new era of peace and
fraternity to the New South, with its
present greatness and glorious promise. he
contributed no part, and in it he has NO
share.
"For Lee, and Jackson, and Johnson,
and Longstreet and the whole body of Con.
federate soldiers, / have profound respect
and sympathy, but see nothing in the life
and character of Jefferson Davis after 1856
to command ,,

A STORY OF EoKELs.
He Remembered With Gratitude the
Man Who Was Kind to Him.

"Cast thy bread upon the waters and it
shall return to thee after many days" It
would appear in what follows that the
bread returned in time for the second gen.
Grafton. Many years ago, as related to
writer for the Star, Comptroller Eckels was
a small boy in Illinois. at this early age
he had taste for trade. His father was
well-to-do, but the coming Comptroller had
a strong notion of making money for him
self. The easiest avenue of commerce
which opened to his young feet was the
apple trade. He was but eight years old
at the time, and it was his won't to occa-
sionally wend his way to farmer of the
neighborhood, who had an unusually fine
brand of apples and buy basketful and
then sell them at ripe advance over orig
inal cost.
In this way the young Eckels amassed
boyish fortune. There was one thing

showed signals today. She was boarded
by Captain Doane and crew. They

suffered dreadfully with the bitter cold,
and all are frostbitten. The wind blew
the sails to ribbons, land when off Boone
island the vessel became unmanageble.
and became solid mass of ice. Finally
we made a lee under the Cape. aftsr

then worked up under Chatham and an

This afternoon the Celina was assisted
in getting under way, and started south

And Floating on Piece of Wreckage-The
Captain and Mate Leave Families IN
RockIand.
Vineyard Haven, February There
is no doubt but that the portion OF
wreck which drifted ashore at Lambert
Cove. on the north side of this island
last night, is what is left of the schoon-
er II. P Dixon of Rockland, Me-, Captain
Boswick, which left New York February
Sd, for Rockland. The wreckage con-
sists of only the vessels deck, broken
off Just aft the foremost, and the yes
sel's cabin. The hull of the vessel is
gone. Attached to and lying alongside
the wreck is a mast and main boom
with furled and close reefed mainsail
attached. The bodies of three men and
dog were on top OF the cabin. Inc
men were encased in ice, their legs
hanging down the cabin skylight. which
was open. The log book OF the schooner
L. P. Dixon was found floating about the
cabin. When the bodies W ere landed on
the beach at Lambert's Cove, one OF
them was Immediately identified by the
New England Associated Press Name
correspondent as Captain Joseph ii. Bos-
wick of the Dixon. Afterward, at the
undertaker's, Captain Wall, of the
schooner Adelia T. Carleton, and Cap
tain GreenIaw, of the schooner Ella May
of Rockport, identified the body. An
other body was that of the mate. Both
resided in Rockland and leave families.
The other body was not identified, but
it is thought it is that of the cook. The
Lodies are in charge of An underaker at
VI fHhn Of the hnr-
ri BILE accident will probably always re-
main mystery. 1t is considered most
likely that the vessel struck on some
ledge at the entrance to Vineyard Sound
during the gale yesterday, and was
dashed to pieces.
