an account of ii, Mr. Hammond in his
exordium stated that mis- mission was 10
educate his countrymen concerning the
politics of the Transvaal, and naturally
he wishes to reach as large an audience
as possible.
He stated what has already been known
to the public, that the Outlanders were
taxed without representation; that they
were tried by Jurors composed of Beers
and mat the franchise was practically for
hidden fruit to an allen.
He anwered many questions that were
asked him and he soon convinced his au-
dience that the position of the Beers was
untenabe. In answer to a question, he
explained that if an alien wished TO be-
come a citizen, he had TO forsweer his
allegiance wait fourteen years and then
if Mr. Kruger thought him fit for citizen
ship, ne was given the franchise, and that
during the fourteen years, he was obliged
to serve in the army
Mr. Hammond was condemned to death
by q judge imported from outside the
country TO condemn the revolutionists His
sentence was commu4ed after the char
acteristic cable, from Secretary O.ney 10
Mr.. Kruger. "Of course you do not intend
to carry out any such sentence" He and
his fellow prisoners were each fined sl25,-
O00 The plan of revolution was to over
throw the present government and not the
flag and to force the reforms so justly de
manded, and IL might have succeeded, had
not Dr. Jameson refused to obey the ur-
gent request of the reVOlutiOnists not to
attack but to be in readiness to give as
sistance If il was called for by the aliens
Of the TransVaal. The government Is "A
corrupt oligarchy, and while in 1881 1t was
bankrupt now, by the efforts of the Out
landers, who pay nlne-tenths of the taxes,
1t is ia a flourishing condition.
I am told that Mr. Hammond is a most
interesting talker and as humorous as an
Irishman.
In one of the departments of govern
ment, ] cannot remember the Dutch name,
composed of twenty-five members, he says
that on one occasion twenty-fhree accept
ed brides. and the other two, probably
would have done So had they been pres

asked the question: Mr.. Hammond, how

your previous statement that the Beers

There is in Wilmington, Del, a
young man who is tired of his
face, and is willing to expend $3.50
and undergo any necessary amount
of pain in order to secure new
one. There isn't anything the
matter with the face except that
it bears resemblance to another
person who is intensely disliked
by the owner of it and his mother.
The face, according to its owner,
Is close counterpart of the face
of his mothers stepfather, who
cruelty mistreated her when she
was little girl. Every time his
mother looks at him she is re-
minded of the cruel stepfather,
and every time the young man
himself looks into a mirror he
feels strong resentment toward
the face that looks back at him.
He went to Philadelphia the other
day and endeavored to persuade a
surgeon to remodel the face fol

he will soon have changed face.

THE PEACH LEAF-CURL
1T Is PARTICULARLY BAD IN THE
NORTH GEORGIA ORCH
ARDS THIS SEASON.
PRESENT CROP THREATENED
In Some Localities It May Be Par
TALLY Observation-Disclosures
Show It Can BE Controlled.

lBY w. NJ. SCOTT, STATE ENToMoLoGIsT. +
For the past several years this disease,
popularity known as ''leaf curl" and
technically known as exoascus deform-
ans, has been quite prevalent in the
peach orchards of north Georgia. 1t is
particularly bad this season, and in some
localities threaten the partial destruction
of the present fruit crop.
The symptoms of the disease are very
characteristic and any ordinary observer
can readily detect it. The disease most
commonly develops in the leaves, but it
also attacks the tissues of the twigs. The
mycelial growth of the fungus in the
leaf increases the size and number of
the cells, causing the formation of q Sc
ries of irregular transverse folds. The
leaf is also greatly enlarged, both trans
versely and longitudinally; and one side
is usually strongly convexed, so much
so that frequently the bullying along the
midrib pushes the margins of the leaf
! toward each other on the other side, Civ
ing it an inflated appearance. The It's
sues of the distorted parts thicken and
| the leaf looses it's green color, changing
to pale, with yellowish tints.
The disease appears in early spring as
soon as the leaves are out and develops
very rapidly. The function of the leaves
(the breathing apparatus of the tree) is
entirely destroyed by this fungus, hence
the vigor of the tree and the develop
! ment of the fruit are materially i'm
paired, frequently causing the fruit to
shed and decreasing the longevity of the
tree.
All affected leaves are shed in the
early part of the summer, and if the
trees are well cultivated and fertilized a
new set of healthy leaves will come out,
and nothing more will be seen of the
disease until the following spring.
The mycelium or vegetative part of
this fungus is perennial and passes the
late summer, autumn and winter in the
b1ooubS VI thC iGfll anu DuLS, HTOWlllg
out with the developing leaf in the fol
ing spring.
REMEDY.
Until recently very little was known
concerning the treatment of the leaf
curl. On Jan. 16 Of this year, the writer
began a series of experiments in the or
chard Of Judge George f. Gober at Ma
rietta. Ga, looking to the control Of this
disease, both as to the substance to be
used and the time of applying it, The
results of these experiments are all that
could be desired. While the work is not
yet completed sufficient results have
been obtained to show that the disease
can be easily and cheaply controlled.
The plan of the experiment is given in
brief below, but full details and ex.

ticle. Several thousand trees were in.
cluded in the experiment and each row
represents from so to 300 trees. The or.

The ancients believed that rheuma-
tism was the work of demon within a
man. Any one who has had an attack
of sciatic or inhammatory rheumatism
will agree that the infliction is demo-
MAC enough to warrant the belief. 1t
has never been claimed that Chamber
lain's Pain Balm would cast out de-
mons, but it will cure rheumatism, and
hundreds bear testimony to the truth

which it affords is alone worth many
