sanction every ill-gotten-up Islander
against them, before we know whether
it be true or not. However, circum-
stances cannot righteously aid Mr..
Main in either instance, for if his
assertions be true, he is as guilty AS
the commissioners, and should they
not be SO, then he has testified to a
falsehood against three honest men
which would ruin them, and would be
equally ui just. Let us not be hasty
in accusing the commissioners on the
testimony of one man, when they have
never before given us cause for so do
ing. Rather wait and all will come
right in due time. Accusations of the
same stamp were also made against
our present tax collector, but since the
Grand Jury has thoroughly investi-
gated the matter and found that such
charges were totally false, we are glad
to say that, tits only the guilty that
are always crying aloud that "there
Is fraud" aud they generally find it
right AT home.
The severity Of this winter has great
ly injured all of the early fruit. Rasp-
berries are completely frozen, while
numbers of of pear and apple buds are
dead. About p per cent. of the straw
berries are frozen. Mr.. Levi Wolfe,
our extensive peach grower, claims
that at least 70 per cent. of the peaches
are frozen and even some of the trees
are dead. The loss of the fruit crop
will cause a scarcity of goods for eau
ming this season, which our people
must strive to replace with their pro-
duce of the summer.

Sousa and his Peerless Band.

As announced in last weeks issue,
the coming concert by John Philip
Sousa and his peerless band of solosts,
on this Saturday night, will be the
greatest musical event this city las
witnessed for some years. Who has
not heard of Sousa? What band or or
chestra repotoire is complete without
one or more of his compositions?
What company of men can play them
like Sousa can, aud who would fail to
be present to hear the great March
King" direct his magnificent baud?
If you love music you will be present
If you do not, you will come through
curiosity to see the man whom every
one is talking of in all parts of the
globe. Already four hundred seats
have been marked off at the box Of
fice-nearly the entire ground floor
but the management states that few
can yet be purchased. The program
will be cosmopolitan and can be ap-
preciated by all. Those in the coun-
try wishing to hear the concert can do so
and arrive home at Il seasonable hour.
Tickets are only Sl.00, 70 and 80 cents.

| iOuS pleasant environments. NOW lor
the remedy. There is in my opinion
one, and only one remedy, that should
be put in practice at once. AT an early
age the minds of the youth should be
implanted with the rudiments OF
knowledge and, when at proper pc
Rod of understanding, the true and
proper methods of conducting the farm
and its numerous side issues should be
fully and carefully explained. He
should be informed what are the best
crops to raise; how to cultivate them;
the qualities of good land and It's prop
er value; how to take care of stock
the proper usage of fertilizers, etc, etc.
and above all teach him thrifty habits.
If you do not possess them naturally
borrow them. Teach him the neces-
sity of keeping everything in order and
in its proper place. Let him help
you as a companion and co-partner,
not as slave and mental. Here is the
great trouble which exists In so many
household and business relations to-
| day. Put some dependence IN your
boys, they will appreciate it and show
ample gratitude. Try to make
home bright and cheerful for the boys
when at work or leisure. Be COM
panion to them and assist them In
their little troubles; when they become
old enough, let them have something
to work upon for themselves, out OF
which by proper management they
NAV make a few dollars, and keep this
up until in every particular your sons
are as fully capable of taking care OF
the farm as their father. Every
young man aspires to q position of im-
portance, and II you give 1t to him on
the farm he will not seek 1t elsewhere,
