Several days ago that talented at torney and accomplished orator, Hon. Sam M. Taylor, in prosecuting Nose Arrant and Jim Clayton. who were being tried for abducting two young eolored girls from the homes of their parents, made one of the best speeches of his life. In the height of his eloquence he made several quo- tations from the bible, and the beauty of his language and his inn passioned manner made a deep im- pression on ali of his hearers. At the conclusion of his speech, an old colored man, who had listened to the burning words of the lawyer with the closest attention, went up to him, and with outstretched hand, said: sMister Taylor; I wants to compliment you on your speech. 1 has heard Brother MiddlebrookH, Brother Robinson and Brother Rogers; yet, l must admit dat you is equal to any of them" The at torney with his usual suavity of manner and genial smile, thanked the old man for the compliment and hurried from the room to the street to get a breath of fresh and whole some mir

TO CURE TREES.
The Cause of Pear Blight and the Remedy

The Cause of Pear Blight and the Remedy
Through Hon. A. G. Hill State Agri-
cultural Commissioner Nesbitt requests
the publication of the following com nu-
nieation from the agricultural depart
mant at Washington. 1t will prove OF
interest to pear growers;
"Pear blight is caused by very NIL
mute microbe which enters the tree at the
blossom cluster, Or at the tip OF the ten
der growing shoot. 1t may destroy only
the blossom cluster, or a few inches OF
the twig. or it may run downward several
feet. killing large limbs OF even whole
trees. The same micrObe causes apple
twig blight and ounce blight. MOST OF
the damage from this blight is done dur
inc the first month of growth, beginning
at blossom time.
CATER running downward for few
;nobas or foot or more, the disease
usually comes to standstill. "hen lt
has stopped definite crack forms on the
bark. separating the live and dead por-
tions. When the diseased portion blends
off into the live part it shows that the
disease is still progressing.
"Below the blighted portion the tree
NAV be perfectly healthy, as the blight
kills only as far as it reaches. Healthy
thrifty, rapidly growing trees suffer more
whan attacked than those not so Vlgor-
orO In certain seasons the blight doesnot
SOD, but keeps on slowly growing IN Vhe
b,k till the close of the season. After
this such cases continue progressing
slowly. the new blight for each year com
inc from germs which lived over from
the preceding seasons cases.
"The remedy for pear blight IS TO e1-
terminate the microbes which cause tne
disease. This can de done by pruning
ont the old blight in the fall or WINTER
fms nreventing the microbes from living
over In uild attacks, where there is
Init little blight, and whenever practical
b,o + is hest to cut out the blight as
soon as discovered. Complete destruc-
tion of the blight should be carried out
-. tho fallt as soon as all late growth has
ceased It cutting out the blight care
obou,d he taken to cut on the SOUND
wood below the disease"
