TELL REPORTERS THE TRUTH.

Advises Absolute
FranknesH with Newspaper Men.
In his address at the New Orleans
Press club recently, reports the Balti-
more Sun, Cardinal Gibbons said:
"If had n piece of advice to give
a public man more than another it is,
be frank with the reporter. 1t has
been my privilege and pleasure to come
in contact with and to know n great
number Of reporters. ! have ~steadfast-
ly adopted n policy of absolute frank
ness with them, and I have yet to have
a confidence betrayed. They have
never proved themselves unworthy Of
the estimate I placed on them as gentle
men. 1t is the public man who con
ceals, whose very act of concealment
is perceived by the reporters (for in
the very nature of their business they
must be quick to perceive), 1t is this
very ~concealment which induces the re-
porter to further conduct his invcstiga-
tons and often to get wrong what. had
he been in the condolences of the man
whose manner provoked investigation,
he would have understood and written
intelligently about. And it is in this
very manner that much Of the COM
plant against the reporter originates.
Tell the reporters the absolute truth.
Never deceive them" 81 NJ

Baptist House of Worship Built Be-
fore 17SO I'm Virginia.
South of Mason and Dixon's line the
Oldest and probably the most fomous
church is the Providence Baptist, in
Clark county, KY, seven miles south Of
Winchester. 1t was organized at q
different place from where the congre-
CATION now meets. Virginia was the
church's birthplace, but previous to
1880 it moved to Kentucky, Daniel
Boone being included among the con-
~gregation. It has in it's history occu-
pied three buildings, one of log, one
of stone and the present one,a modern
frame.
Not only is this the oldest church in
the south, but it is the pioneer church
organization in the state and is q part
Of the very interesting unpublished his
tory of Kentucky. The pastor of the
church, Robert Elkins, has held his DO
sition for 40 years. The present clerk
has filled his own place for 43 years.
The early day stone sanctuary has
stood the test Of time, the lot
showing a crack to-day, having stood rs
firm as the church organization itself.
The building is over 100 years DID,. Near
this old church is the more modern and
commodious house of worship built by
the present congregation. No services
are held in the old stone structure. but
it stands n monument to the thorough
ness and careful work of Kentucky's
early Baptists.

some reason unknown to the scientific

IN INTERESTS OF CITIES
second Annual Meeting of the League
of American Municipalities
nt Detroit, Mich.

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 2.-The mayors
convention assembled here Monday
with 200 delegates present. Gov. Pin
gree and Mayor Maybury delivered ad-
dresses of welcome.
The president, Mayor John MacVic-
ar, of Des Moines, Ia, after short re-
sponse, delivered his annual address.
After adoption OF some amendments
to the leagues constitution, providing
that dues be payable to the treasurer
direct, instead of through the score
tary, the convention adjourned un-
til two o'clock.
At the opening of the afternoon ses-
sion Gov. Pingree welcomed the con-
vention and characterized it as the
most important which had met in De-
troit, because its object was study of
the great problems of municipal af-
fairs.
About 500 municipal officials had
arrived and reported when the evening
session began. The principal feature
was an address by James A. Lavery, of
Poughkeepsie, president of the New
York state branch of the Federation
of Labor, on relation of municipalities
TO organized labor. He argued for
fuller recognition of the rights of labor
and condemned all favoring of monopo-
lies, especially by those holding public
offices, legislative or administra tive.

Melon Vine. in Rows.

Most people are so used to planting
melons in hills that they deem this the
only way. But very successful melon
growers think that making very
slight ridge and planting the seed in
a row pretty closely together is bet
ter way. So soon as the vines begin
to run their tendrils clasp others, and
this keeps them from being blown
about by winds. BY making the ridges
eight or more feet apart the cultivator
can be kept running through them un-
til the vines spread out and occupy
the whole of the vacant space, which
they will surely do before the sum-
mer is ended. If the vines appear to be
too close together in the row the poor
est may be cut out without leaving a
vacancy. as would be the case If they
were planted in hills.

wEELBARRow ROLLER.

stovepipe, a split oak sapling and q
small two-inch board nailed across the
split just behind the roller. The pipe
was well riveted with wrought nails;
short apple tree limb, with old bolts
driven in either end. was put in the
pipe and packed solidly in gravel and
sand, and an inch board was sawed out
to fit the ends, and nailed in, after
tamping the sand and gravel. Auger
holes bored in either side of the split
handle made that fit nicely, and to
strengthen it wire nails were driven
through and bent on both sides. A
support to hold the tongue or handle
off the ground was made by mailing
an eight-inch peg in an auger hole at
the point where the split stopped. The
roller could be pushed or pulled back
and forth, over and across, and did
most effective work.
The small roller proving inadequate
as clod crusher and leveler, where the
soil was rough and uneven, made
larger, stronger and more durable tool
after the fashion of a wheelbarrow.
In this l used the six-inch stovepipe
filled with sand and gravel, and iron
spikes driven in a center square block
for an axle. The frame was made of
two by four-inch scantling, with boards
nailed across for bottom, and a dash
board of eight-inch plank nailed to up
right standards just behind the roller.
This made q platform for weighting
the roller. by giving the children ride
or putting in some rocks. The legs
may be left off, if desirable, and the
roller can be made of wood to suit
the circumstances. In this roller, how
ever, where much weight is needed, the
stovepipe is hardly heavy enough, and
a round block of wood, even one foot
in diameter, is preferable. This roller
can be used in the same manner as
wheelbarrow. and is a very handy, in
expensive tool that more than pays for
its manufacture in one season, and will
last great many years if properly
handled.-Joel Shoemaker, in Farm and
Fireside.
