AT present the airship is expensive be-
cause it has to be built to order to suit
its route and the people who want it, just
as if a special parior car had to be built
for each person who wanted to go on a
tourney. There is neither danger nor
difficulty attending them except that of
striking an adverse current and being UNI
abe to land, a difficulty which l have now
obviated
There are a great many so-called air
ships more or less practicable, but the
one that is actually in operation now at
the Tennessee Centennial is the latest and
best invention of air ships. 1t is the sky
cycle. My solution of the many mystic
rious airships spied here and there is that
many people are trying to fly. l can say
also that my own skycycie viewed from
different positions, looks like a different
machine, and no two people can see ii
alike
The skycycle, being a new type of air
craft, has a new name, coined by its in
Ventor to identify it. as had the telephone
and monograph when they appeared.
My first skycycle machine was built
by me at the Remington works in the
adjoining village OF Inion, and it has now
been in constant experimental use every
season since, to test its qualities and

OBJECTED TO AN ORGAN.
Caused a Deacon TO Leave the Church
at His Sisters Funeral.

Shelbyville, Ind, Dee. 7.-Some time
ago the members of the FairvieW Bap-
tist church, in the northern part of. this
county, took a vote as to whether they
should purchase an organ. The organ
had its enemies, one of the most pro-
nounced being Deacon Enos Cobble,
who stated before the vote was taken
that he would prefer seeing the space
which would be occupied by the organ
taken up by a dealer licensed to sell
whisky, saying that the humping O6
the glasses of the bartender would fall
more gently on his ears and would be
nearer his version of the Christian re-
lgion
So strong was his argument that for
the time being the friends of the organ
were routed, the vote being postponed.
The friends of the instrument at an
other meeting called the project up, and
vote being taken, carried their point
by a narrow margin. The organ was
purchased, but the church lost a mem
ber, as Deacon CObble has withdrawn.
Several days ago his sister, Rev. Mrs.
James Hughes, was taken i'll and died,
her last request being that the choir of
the church sing at her funeral, Nearer
My God, To Thee" with the organ ac-
compartment. The brother made an
effort to prevent the request from being
carried out, and to pacify him he was
partly promised that it would not be
fulfilled.
The remains We're taken to the little
country church, and the mOurners and
friends of the family We're no more
than seated than the choir and organist
began singing and playing the favOrite
song of the deceased.
This was too much for EnOs, who
arose from his seat and, to the surprise
of all, walked out of the house and to
the cemetery, near by.
There he remained until the funeral
procession arrived.

JUSTICES COURT FEES.
An Editor Makes Some Suggestions
on the Subject.
70 the Editor of The State Journal.

To the Editor of The State Journal
have just read your article on JUS
tices Courts in last Thursdays issue.
The difficulty lies in trying to apply the
same laws to cities and country dis
tricts, and in our state constitution re-
quiring two justices to each township,
when one is enough, and two do not
petent man to bother with it. The
reasons you give for substituting one
or more city courts for justices courts
are good, and change from fee to salary
is always in the interest of justice and
economy. The man who amended the
fee bills of justices last winter evident
ly thought only Of city justices, for the
fees were not too high for the country
justices who have but one or two cases
a week, yet must have an office, fuel
lights furniture, etc. A trial often lasts
the entire day and sometimes late into
the night, yet the justice received but
so cents under the old law and but %
cents under the new law, which in cold
weather will not pay for the fuel he
must furnish, while the constable who
is at no expense, receives one dollar for
criminal examination and so cents for
attending on jury Constable's mileage
was left at 10 cents when five was am
nor constable fees were too high They
are paid less for the work done than
any other public officer, and I doubt if
competent men can afford to hold the
office of justice in small towns or coun-
try neighbOrhoOdS under the new law.
Room rent and other necessary expen-
ses will be in excess of the income of
the office in towns of 1000 or less

DUCKED ICE WATER.
Regulators at Waldron Drive Charles
Knox from the Village

Kankakee, Ill, Dec. 7.-Charles Knox of
Waldron was thrice ducked in the ice
cold water of the mill race in that village
and then kicked out of town by commits
tee of regulators.
The regulators claim that Knox and
Ida Ward were not desirable residents.
Knox had been notified to cease his at
tentions to the young girl take the con-
sequences, but paid no attention to the
warning. The regulators called at the
house where Knox and the Ward girl
were living. and, calling the former to the
door. seized him and carried him to the
mill race where he was immersed. He
promised to leave the village and never
return.
The night was very cold, ami before
Knox could reach shelter he was nearly
exhausted. He laid the matter before the
states attorney and threatens to prose-
cute the regulators, whom he claims to
have recognized.

According to The National Stockman
theoretically the use of the subsoil
should pay in most soils. The settling
OF the ground, the tramping of teams in
the bottom of burrows and the absence
Of much organic matter tend to exclude
the air from the subsoil. A thorough
stirring of this soil, loosening the whole
mass to depth of six or eight inches
below the surface soil, commends itself
10 ones judgment Granting this, it ia
a somewhat remarkable fact that very
few subsoil plows are ever worn out. A
progressive farmer will buy such q
pillow, use 1t one season, and then foui
times out of five cast it aside. His ex.
perience does not inspire him with
There are exceptions to this rule, but
comparatively few farmers practice sub
soiling, Notwithstanding the antiquity
Of the idea
The idleness of the plows all over the
country is no slight evidence of lack OF
faith in their use. The difficulty seems
to be that subsoil that easily packs
and becomes hard is of such texture that
few soaking rains will compact it aft
er being stirred by the subsoil pillow.
Deep blowing is more effective, as II
puts sods and other vegetable matter be.
low to hold the clayey PARTICLES apart.
Mere stirring of the clay beneath, with.
out the addition of material to hold il

The importance of clover as soil
renovator is beginning to be appreciated
in New Hampshire, according to New
England Homestead correspondent, who
writes as follows
When seeding a grsssfield, mix a
little clover with the timothy seed. II
oats are being sown at the same time,
put on a very light seeding of grain, OF
if hay crop is desired the first season
do not use oats at all as nurse crop,
but SOW the clover seed alone on plowed
ground and cover as deeply as oats. The
crop will catch more readily and not be
liable to winter kill If heavy growth
of oats is on the ground, the clover
may get little start, but will be over
Swallowed and so weakly when the oats
are removed that great injury will be
done by the sudden exposure to the sun.
