COCHINEAE INDUSTRY.
Ii Has Been the Controlling One of
the Canary Islands.

One OF the most curious agricultural pro-
ducts known, If it can be placed In such
category. is cochineal, the chief seat of
which industry has for many years been the
Canary Islands, says Chambers Journal
The story of the establishment of
ccchlneal culture in the islands is a curious
one. In 1855 a native gentleman became
acquainted with the methods pursued for
producing this dye in Honduras and brought
with him from that place specimens OF the
ccchineal insect, and the cactus upon which
1t thrtves. At that time the wine growers
at the Canarics We're Furnishing, and no
other kind of industry was believed In.
The culture Of the cochineal was regarded
as mad freak, and It's introducer met with
opposition on all sides Then the dreaded
phyi!oxera made Its appearance In the vine
yards and ruin faced the wine growers.
They were glad, Indeed, to take up the de-
spised coch!neal and the old vineyards were
given up to the new industry with such
success that In a year the value Of the ex-
ported dye reached not far short Of 6. 600
600. The Introduction Of aniIine dyes
changed all thRI AID 1t L. feared that the
cochlneal industry can never regain Its
former position in the Canary Islands.

THE BIBLE BY HEART.
A Preacher Who Can Recite Every
Line of 1t Except the Psalms.

Preacher Who Can Recite Every
Line of 1t Except the Psalms.
The Rev. William Cuban Hicks is con-
Quoting series Of religious services In Co
lUnbia. the capital of Adair county, Ken
A:cky, and Is creating something Of a SEN
eetion IN church circles, not only on ac-
souat of his phenomenal familiarity with
The Scriptures. but also because of his
unique and sIngularly forcIble style of
preaching. says correspondent of the Chi
cago Tribune. Immense crowds flock to
hear him, and no building In the town Is
large enough to contain his congregations.
Mr.. Hicks is only twenty-eight years OF
age. having been horn on December 22, 1861
but he has had n varied experience for one
of his years. He was born in the hills OF
Pulaski county, KY, Of humble parents
both full-blooded Irish. and In his early
youth he received only meager educational
advantages. Hicks has always been of a
Religious turn OF mind. and while attending
o prOtrdcted meeting at Rock Lick Mission
airy Baptist Church, In the backwoods Of
Pulaski county, years ago. he became Com
Verted and connected himself with that
congregation. He then commenced the close
and intense study Of the Bible which has
resulted IN his extraordinary requirements
In that particular
Mr.. Hicks claims. and can satisfy any ona
OF the tTuthfulness of the allegations that
he can repeat absolutely every chapter In
the New Testament, and all of the Old Tes-
lament with the exception of the Psalms.
lie can begin at the first chapter and go
through with every one of the hooks in
correct consecutive order, or can commence
at the last chapter and repeat them back
ward without missing 4 single sentence,
skipping the Psalms, or he can commence
In the middle of the book and go either wav.
he Is willing at all time to give exhibitions
OF his capabilities In this line, and has been
put TO test so often that he has about salts
al ha Ill
lumhia and throughout Adeir county Ask
him TO recite any chapter, simply giving
him the book ard the number of the chapter.
ana h goes to work upon it at once, with
out halting or hesitating, and completes It,,
word for word. His performance is amaZ.
