The gallantry of Captain J. d. Cork

nized by the Treasury Department and
he will not have to pay the 500 fine i'm
posed on him by Customs Collector STRAIT

do not recognize guests" on board ship,
and the captain was fined 5000 for each
person brought from one domestic port

Treasury of the fine and made a state
ment of the fact, at the same time max
ing a strong plea for mercy,

The Russian Thistle.
Wetumpka. Ala, May 27. 1901.

Wetumpka, Ala, May 27. 1901. Editor The Advertiser:
 The Federal Government some years ago made a large appropriation for exterminating the Russian thistle which made it's appearance In the West. What promises to be as great nuisance in Alabama is the nut grass q do not know that 1t has attained to the dignity of a better name) which now covers large areas, and is pro- pagating itself with a vigor that is alarming. Every part of the plant is possessed with power of reproduce ton, and it's vitality is so great that 1t does not yield to native grasses which crowd and overshadow it. In sooth it has the persistence of Ban quos' ghost. What weEe the means employed by the government in deal ing with that thistle? Could they be used to advantage on nut grass. or would a powerful poison applied to the land be the only practical expedient for it's extermination? The great agricul- tural interests of our State Is being imperriled by this pest and I beseech you. if you know even how to check it's awful ravages, do not die with the secret in your bosom.
