Roach EXterminatOr

The Fucker Manufacturing Company,
San Francisco. Cal, Gentlemen:
We, the undersigned, chief and as
sistant engineers of the Southern Pa
cifc company's steamer ..Amador, =
with which we have been connected for
Il number of years, certify to the effic-
iency OF the Fucker Medcol egg in ex-
terminating cockroache5. These pests
have been q great source of annoyance
on board the vessel and nearly every
known remedy has been tried with
little or no effect. Several weeks ago
we obtained about half dozen of the
above eggs and placed them in the
worst infested part of the vessel. I'm
mediately the insects commenced to
disappear and now these places are
entirely freed from them. We believe
that by using more of the eggs the
insects would be eXterminated from
every part of the vessel

The Rev. NJ. X. Fallen breaches on an ln-
teresting subject IN 81. Pauls Church.
The Rev. M. X. Fallon preached in
st. Paul's Church Sunday evening
on Pentecost and the Christian Sun /
day. On Sunday was celebrated as
Whitesunday and is called in the
Catholic Church the birthday of Chris
tlanity. Ii is called Pentecost (Which is
Greek for SOY because it was so da, g
after the resurrection of Christ from
the tomb. 1t is the anniversary of the
PRONUNCIATION of the new law and the
abrogation of the old law.
In speaking OF the Catholic Sunday
he said that all Catholic theologians
teach that there are three kinds of
works:
]. Common work or recreations and
these belong to all creations.
2. The mental or liberal work.
3. The servile work--called work for
bire or wages.
4. The Catholic who is amenable or
bound by the Churcb's law, must wit
ness the passion Of Christ every Sun
DAY and abstain from servile work un.
less the work servile is necessary for
our neighbours good, comfort or con.
venience. This witnessing the passion
of Christ means hearing mass seriously
and devouIly. This done the common
and liberal work may go on though the
-a'ass Aiay haVe. lastea emily 2S or 30
minutes. The teacher may go to her
problems. the gunner to tbs game and
the bather to the sea. Such is the
difference between the non Catholic and
Catholic Sunday.

The scntfold is not being built to suit
the murderer. lie cannot see the car

with his face pressed against the bars,
Gordy called out: "Say, Mr.. Hatfield,
wont you build it over here in the
northwest corner OF the yard. | want
to see the thing through and want to
see all your work. ~
Hatfield and his assistant paid no
attention TO Gordy's yelling and kept
on preparing the boards fo- The scaffuld.
The total height will be IA feet. The
foor will be five feet from the ground,
which will allow drop of that dis.
tance. A
The platform on which Gordy will
stand will be 6x12 feet. The hook from
which the rope on the scaffold will slim
is an old rusty one, which has laid
around the county Jail for % years.
Ex- Sheriff Truxton went to Philadel-
pnia to-day to buy rope 40 feet long
which will be used in the execution.
Gordy was visited by his brother this

An old Chnrnl,.

Laurel, June G. Two thousand people
gathered at Old Christ Church, Broad
Creek, this afternoon. it being the
annual meeting of the Episcopalians
OF lower Delaware. This church was
built in 1879 and the interior is The
same to-day as whom the church was
6rat erected, with boxed pews with
high pulpit 10 the centre. No paint
brush has ever touched the ediiice and
the timber inside and out is built of
Sussex heart pins and is as sound to
day as when it was first erected. No
nails were used in the interior, wooden
pegs supplying their place. Outside
the nails. used were all hand forged and
they and the iron braces we're made at
the famous old Hastings Forge, which
the British captured and destroyed
during the revolution. Bishop Cole
man preached to-day and the records
show that servica has been held in the
church every Wbitsunday since its
erection.

Tortured by Rebels Because the Spanish
Troops Practiced Crueities Upon Insur-

sympathy With the Insurgent Cause.

Vancouver. B. c.. jane s. Further
interviews with officers Of the steamer
Hupeh, now in port. elicit the fact
that 20 Catholic monks we're roasted
by The rebels In tho Philippine Islanfls.
and not by Spanish troops, as pre-
viously reported. The information was
furnished by prominent resident of
llo.llo, in the group OF islands, and
corroborated by forsign consul. In
consequence of cruelties practiced by
the Spanish troops on the rebels, or
those suspected Of being in SYMPATHY
with the rebel cause, the rebels per.
petrated acts of cruelty on the hapless
monks who came in their clutches.
The customary mode of roasting suck.
ing pigs in the islands is by thrusting
a bamboo through the pig. and then
fastening it to an iron and roasting it
over a slow fire. This was done to ths
monks. the bamboo being thrust
through them while they we're alive
Previous to the voyage to this port
the Hupeh made trip from Hong
Kong to llo-Ilo, and it was just pre-.
vious to this voyage that the acts re-
ported occurred.

PEACHES Dooh En-.
Are Being stune by Insects, and Are Fall
ing From the Trees,

Are btibs stunE Dy insects, ana Are rail-
ing From the Trees.
Special Correspondence of Gazette and journal
Bridgeville, June Z. Two weeks ago
the peach trees in lower Delaware con-
tanned two -ffths of a crop of fruit; to-
day most of the fruit is on tho ground.
This condition is the result Of an in
sect's sting. A month ago farmers
stated that ap insect was stinging the
peaches, and many growers Immediately
predicted that the peach crop would be
further decreased. Their predictions
are being verified; Delaware will have
very few peaches. The June drop is
on. and the ground under the trees is
nearly covered with peaches. Many Of
them have been stung in six or eight
places
Farmers who have been in the peach
growing business for 20 years, and who
are authority on the subject, say
that the destructive insect ia bred in
the peach that is permitted to rot on
the tree.
Charles G. Brown is gathering as
many of the insects as possible. and
thus hopes to save some of his fruit.
He puts sheets under trees, shakes the
trees and the insects fall upon the
sheets, after which the insects are de-
stroyed. Already Mr.. Brown has taken
1000 insects from so trees.
The rose bug is also injuring the
peaches.
Many farmers, whose orchards con-
tain 1000 trees each, declare that they
will not raise peaches sufficient for
their own use.

srURG Eoy SEASON.
Has Been Faiiure-The Fishermen Re-

Penn's Grove, N. j.. June 7.--Most
of the sturgeon fishermen from this
section OF New Jersey are home from
the fishing grounds at Bay Side. broken
in spirit aud pocket over the poor
seasor--if not the poorest season-
perenced for years. During the past
weeks the firms who have remained on
the fishing grounds had little or nc
luck at all, and, in the language of an
old fisherman, 'were only waiting for
fair wind to sal home.''
Capt. George ID. Shannon, one of the
leading spirits in the Sturgeon Fisher
mems Protective Association, refers to
the season from financial point OF
view as failure. He says: "Some few

seen standing around, wondering on
which side of the ship to cast their
nets. SO as TO try and come out Of the
woods whole. -
The same news comes from Cape
Shore, as we'll as from the Delaware
side OF the bay, that the season has
been failure from the start.
These discouragements, however, are
to an extent courteracted by the in
tercst tho fishermen have awakened
among the United States Fish Com
