The Bible In Civil Government

An address delivered at the

Convention in Louisa, Kentucky

the request OF the Convcntionl.
The oracle that speaks on this
subject should give no uncertain
sound. When Jehovah gave man
a form Of Civil Government, il was
a Theocracy-that is, God was to

His Word its Magma Charta, and
His Law it, Code. Hence the I
foundation of all Government is

As the Pilgrim Fathers came to
America seeking Religious I4iber-

nized God and the Bible. The
same idea entered into the Decla-

caught in a squall. The boat was
overturned and the occupants thrown
out. Miss Corkran was the only one
in the party who could not swim. She

state she was unable to pull herself

HEAVY PEACH SHIPMENTS
HOLD GROWERS At TTENTION
MANY GROWERS IN THIS VICINITY WILL
REALIZE SPLENDID PROFITS.
Steamer G. F. Brady and the Delaware Railroad
Doing Rushing Business Heaviest Ship
per Here is Miss Agnes Cummins.

The peach is king. The season Is
now at it's height and the growers of
this vicinity, as we'll as in other parts
of Delaware, are hard at work in their |
orchards preparing the luscious fruit /
for shipment. Those in II s vicinity |
who are fortunate enough to have
peaches have gotten good prices and
some growers will realize handsomely
from their crops. There has been
little over half crop in this immedi-
ate vicinity, but they have brought from
80 centsto ST. % a basket, and some have
even gotten more. The marketthi morn
ing Is fancy peaches, 80 cents to $l.OO
basket; good peaches from 70 cents
to so cents a basket. Grapes, which
are also shipped in large quantities
from this vicinity, are bringing from
rs cents to so cents a carrier.
The daily line of Steamer G. F.
Brady has been rushed to its capacity
to get the Smyrna fruit to market, and
, despite the many contingencies that
naturally arise, the boat has not missed
, market this season. The fruit has
been handled nicely, early markets
, have been reached and the highest
. market prices have been realized. The
daily line, however, will not be con
tinued after this month. Beginning
:. with September the first, Steamer
Brady will make trl-weekly trips, al
will be seen by the September tim'

LIGHTNING STRIKES CRAWFORD FARM
Heavy Storm Passes Over This Locality and
Marks the Pretty Farm of J. r. Jefferson.

Despite the cool weather that has
prevailed, an electric storm of unusual
severity came up Sunday afternoon
accompanied with heavy rein. Lightn-
ing flashes were very vivid. On the
Crawford Farm" wet Of Clayton,
owned ry Mr.. Joseph r. Jefferson and
tenanted by Mr.. Harry c. Walker,
considerable damage was done. A
bolt of lightning struck the stable
burning it to the ground, the granary
adjoining and cow-shed and hay
barrack. Fortunately the stock was
saved. All of Mr.. Walkers seed wheat
bread wheat, and several loads of hay
including other contents of the build
ings were burned, entailing loss of
about 800. The damaged property is
partially covered by insurance.
