VANDERBILT MAKES
THE AMENDE HONORABLE,

William X. Vanderbilt. Jr.. played the
part of the good Samaritan yesterday
at Newport. Having run down a little
child the previous day and bruised her

his automobile. the young millionaire
made the amende honorable.
He called at the humble home where

kissed the child, thereby, winning the
hearts Of the parents.
You must let me pay the Doctors

and luxuries for your little one"
With this he laid some crisp bank
notes on the table. which quite took
away the breath of the parents.

Perhaps lobster meat is not an ideal
food for children, but every child
should be allowed little occasionally
in order that he may say when he is
old and there are no more Holsters he
remembers how delicious was the ma
vor OF II. Lobsters are becoming few
er and fewer with remarkable steadi-
ness. Persons not yet old can remcm-
ber how cheap good Holsters once
were, how they are becoming a luxury
and some day they will be worth their
weight In terrapins, says the Boston
Herald.
The trouble with Holsters is that men
have not yet learned how TO nurture
them artificlally. II is not difficult TO
get plentiful supply otSobster babies:
the difficulty comes In preserving their
lives until they grow mt for human
food. In their infancy and tender
youth almost every creature I'm the sea

been discovered how to keep these del
icacies alive under conditions OF pro-
lection. The question for which no ade-

This very destructive pest. which Is
Sound feeding upon the roots of cab
bage radishes and turnips from early
May to August. may readily be held in
check by careful use OF the following
remedial measures: For radishes and
young cabbage plants in the seed bed
an emulsion of crude carbolic acid will
be found TO be very effective in reduc-
Ing the damage caused by this sftest
The treatment should be commenced a
few days after the plants are up and
repeated three or four times at inter-
walls OF week or 10 days.
The following formula will be found
satisfactory: One pound of hard soap
dissolved in one gallon of boiling wa
ter. into which one pint OF crude car
boic acid is poured and the whole mass
agitated into an emulsion. For use
take one pound of this standard emul-
sion and dilute with thirty parts of
water. 1t is best applied with syringe
or force pump near the base of the
plants. although good results have been
obtained by simply pouring the solution
along the rows of plants.
For cabbage after the plants are set
in the field. the best method of combat
ing this pest seems to be by means of
tarred paper pads placed about the
fly from laying its eggs on or near the
stem of the plant. The best form for
these cards Is that of a hexagon with a
cut extending from one angle to near
the centre. where "a star-shaped cut is
made. which enables the pad to be
closely fitted about the stem of the
plant. In placing these cards I'm posi-
tion. care should be taken 10 have them
In close contact with the soil so that
the flies cannot crawl beneath them.
Care should also be taken to prevent
the soil from covering the pads. as
when this occurs the eggs are often laid
upon the top Of the pads and the young
,maggots are thus enabled to reach the
Stems of the plants.
During the past three years when
these two remedies have been carefully
used upon our crops. there has resulted
a saving of % per cent. OF our crops
while without their use IL has been inn
possible to mature more than 25 pen
cent of the early and mid-season crops
Of cabbage.

THOUGHT As A FORCE.
HARRIET v. BRADBURY


a new force has been discovered. or
rather there has been a new discovery
of an old force one that has been active
in the world ever since man became
living soul. Ii Is the force OF human
thought. This Is the most striking dis
coyeryrq2nhe prese4f age, and bids fair
century The breadth of It's scope Is seen
In the fact that IL can be investigated
from as many points OF view as there
are thinkers TO investigate. No line OF
research could be more interesting TO the
psychologist. while none opens TO the
biologist more fascinating prospects OF
discovery. The philosopher the states

discovery may hold for them OF practical

manners and morals, I'm turn, have given

more or less healthful and beautiful, ac-
cording TO Its habits, and suited 10

The News takes the following ex-

In the very centre OF the shoe manu-

less to say that the politics OF the Ga
zette Is Republican:
THE two puzzles OF the hour are
how TO minimize the evil Of trusts and
combines. and what TO do with the
tariff which shields the men now Joined
together in a common conspiracy TO
degrade American labor. Under the
circumstances the hackneyed lines OF
the average political writer or orator
OF four years ago must give way 10
the popular demand for a closer ac-
Quaintance with the needs and social
aims OF the wage earners without ref
erence to the peculiar circumstances OF
the classes receiving benefit from the
thrift and provident management of
the working force of the country.
Hence IT is impossible TO overestimate
the effect OF the diffusion of the facts
and laws Of modern capital consolida-
tion as exemplified by Mr.. Bryan.
among the people. Certainly he is
changing thousands who were enemies
TO himself and cause four years ago.
Indeed. he is wonderfully moulding
public opinion In the direction OF ma
tional issues by merging his iS to
theory into complex argument ia

where the two precious metals. gold
and silver. win be taken as standards
OF currency
THE Republican party will. there
fore. enter upon campaign of de-
fence. when old measures and prnci-
pies must be set aside in the interest
OF the live economic issues which will
be supplied from the Canadian border
to the water-washed rocks OF Cedar
Keys by organized labor. There is not
a compact labor centre in the union

1T Is 20 be regretted that the only
black spot in the otherwise brilliant
prospects OF the Republican party ad-

at this juncture be used to bolster the
pretentious action OF a party which in
all its history has been identified with

the two leading officers OF the societies;
but these officers did not get the money
which the General Assembly voted.
They received only 5000 Somebody else
got s5ls of the peoples money. Now
how was that done. and who was the
