From the Gazette, Champaign, Ill.

At the advanced age of eighty-fve years,
James McMillen, of liz West Washington ST.,
is of the most active men in Champaign,
Illinois. Mr. McMillen is pioneer citizen of
the city, and his form is as familiar on the
streets as that of any citizen of the town. All
his life Mr.. McMillen has followed the trade of
shoemaker and every day finds him at his
bench, bending over his work with apparently
the same vigor he commanded when he was
young man.
He has a little shop on North Wright ST.,
in the vicinity of the University of Illinois,
and he is the official shoemaker as it were, for
the students of that institution.
Abou year ago Mr.. McMilen was absent
from his bench for several weeks, and his ia
miar form was missed along the streets The
local newspapers announced that he was dan
gerously i'll. For months he was sufferer,
but finally he appeared again at his shop, and
has lost but very few days since then and
none, perhaps, account of sickness. His
friends surprised to see him out again,
and they were more surprised when he told
them the cause of his recovery.
There small amount of local interest
in his case, and a reporter visited him, to have
him relate the story.

Caution is Necessary.

Frost is not the only enemy OF the
orange. 1t is not the principal enemy.
Making an orange grove below the
frost line needs conditions of success
in location and soil, and cultivation
and fertilization, and guarding against
frequently initiate against success
that are more formidable than it's pro-
duction near the border frost line,
and people should be on their guard
against investing in enterprises or in
schemes that shall in ten years pro-
duce fabulous results, provided the
investor will risk $4OO to $500 an acre
with a company who will furnish the
land at $3.50 an acre Gin eight annual
payments $35 an acre for clearing
the land and planting, superintend-
ence, fertilizing, fencing, etc, in pro-
portion, in order to have a ma tured
grove to come on when they lay
down the burdens of business.
There is little sure in this world but
death and taxes, and out of the thOus-
ands who have made an investment in
having an orange grove made to their
hand, without their own supervision,
we will venture to say that not one
in ten ever got the return of their in
vestment, or even ate an orange from

where frost has not been the destruc-
tive enemy.
Where the water line or hard-pan
comes in contact with the tap root of
the growing orange tree, the chances
are that there will be little fruit, al
though the trees may flourish for
years and give promise of great
future, but the hopes Of the investors
will be in vain, and the promoters Of
enterprises for making orange groves
in such localities had better gain a
little more experience by observation.
See the results of all such orange Gull
ture by lake or ocean, river, glade or
hammock, with water line or hard
pan that shall be accessible to the
tap root The Bangor grove in Put
nam county that was abandoned after
it came to a bearing age is a case in
point.
No orange grower of a dozen years
constant experience will make an IN
vestment in orange grove enterprises
without his own costant supervision,

the plant to the maturity of the tree
and would it be wise to entrust your
capital to Spectator or colony

A small orange grove may be de-
light if it has your personal supervl

is more interesting than any other
branch of horticulture. But it is 6
work that cannot well be entrusted to

reporter. 81 wake up every morning

Gathering and Scattering.

Some years since one of the wealthiest
manufacturers of New England remark
ed upon the singular fact. which in
long life he had observed as holding In
the majority of cases, that wealth rarely
remained in large amount in family to
the third generation. The father starts
poor, but by industry and frugality ac-
uuires and accumulates wealth. Often
times he is so busy with business that
his children have little attention from
him. He has no skill to train them to
rightly use their riches. He has no dis
position to bind them to life OF such
toll and privation as he has led. They
are bred in luxury, which leads often to
dissipation. Never having learned self
control, they are incapable of managing
their property judiciously. Their own
extravaganza and the greed OF others
dissipate the fathers gatherings, and
the third generation is born to poverty
to renew the struggle. OF late years this
is changing somewhat. Children born to
wealth are being bred to work in caring
for property more than formerly. Sons
of rich men are not so often the ldlers
they We're in former years. The sense OF
responsibility and the absolute need OF
being fitted for their work is forcing
them to better life preparation

He Turned and Hurled Lead At His Per-
secutors.
A very hot fight occurred recently over
a game Of baseball in New Orleans during
which several negroes were shot and sew
eral beaten and cut. The firing Of the
shots created intense excitement In the
neighborhood, and for awhile the police
had their hands full.
The fight was over the stake money.
One nine was from the front OF the dis
trict and the others from the rear Dan
Watson was the umpire, and when he de-
cided who had won the stake money the
row began. There were words, then
blows and then the shooting. Henry
jackson welded baseball bat, and when
IL struck Albert Baptiste the latter cut
him. Then Albert Butler drew his pistol
and fred three shots, and one OF these balls
wounded Walter Williams, a shining light
in the back of town nine.
The umpire snatched the pistol from
Butler, and turning on him and his crowd
stampeded them, following them up, shoot
ing at them as they ran. One OF these
shots wounded boy named BLACK
well. The umpire was assisted by Willie
Jones, who also had u pistol and fired nve
shots at the flying nine. He was arrested
and charged with shooting and wounding.
Watson, the umpire, was captured ano
locked up on similar charge. Thoma:
Johnson, George Pollard, Leon Pollard and
Eztbes Lewis. who all carried marks Oh
having been in the war, were charged WIFI
