Planting time is near approaching and
most farmers are not done turning their
stnbblo and many of them huve not
hauled their guano, and bad weather
continues, so the prospect is we will soon

fine weather and get in extra time.

I notice that cotton is advancing in
price but it is too late to do the farmer
any good, for most Of it has been mar.
keted. Afraid tho low price and short
crop might reduce tho acreage this year,
they advance tho price now to induce
the planting of full crop. If every far
mer would plant five acres to the horse
in cotton and more oorn, make his own
molassea, SOW more wheat and make his
bacon, we would always get goodprice
for what cotton we make, Now, brother
farmers. while the supply is short, lot us
keep it short and that will always give
us q good PAIGE. We have always been
taking their price aud giving their back.
There ia no need of our merchants or
dering oars OF corn when we can grow il
all here If we will just plant it end work
1t about half as much as we do what cot
ton we plant.

GAMBLING.
We Have Been Requested To Reprint
The Following:

wv 10 RtpEIH(
The Following:
At Il mass meeting in tho Second
PresbYtian chuch, Portsmont, O.,
on recent Sabbath afternoon, out
in the presence Of over two hundred
men, a converted gambler and
ex-saloonkeeper made the follow
ing stetement, which has created
profound impression:
81 hevc been in the saloon busi-
ness, with a gamblingsrco o m attacbS
ed, for the last four years, and
claim to know something about
what l an now going to tell you.
| do not belive that the gambling
den Is nearly SO dangerous, nor
does it do anything like the same
amount Of harm as the social card
party in tho home, I give this as
my reason: In the gambling room
the windows are closed tight, tho
curtains arc pulled down; evory-
thing is secretly for fear Of detcc-
ton, and none but gamblers, as a
rule, enter there; while in the par
lOr all have access to the game,
children are permitted to watch it,
young people are invited to partake
in it. 1t is made attractive and
alluring by giving prizes, serving
refreshments and adding high So
cial enjoyment. For my part. I
never could sec the dinerene be
tween playing for peace Of silver
nodded III tho shape Of money and
silver nodded in the shape of a cup
or thimble. The principle is the
same, and whenever property
changes hands over the luck Of the
cards, no matter how small
is the value Of the prize, I believe
it is gambling. Have you over
thought of it? Who're do all these
gamblers come from. They are not
taught in the gamblers dens A
'greener,' unles he is fool, never
enters a gambling hell, because lie
knows that he will be heced out Of
every thing he possesses in less than
fifteen minutes. He has lealne
somewhere else before he gets in
side such a place. When he has
played in tho parlor, in tho social
game of the home, and has become
proficient enc ugh to win prizes
among his feienus, the next step
with him Is to scell out tho gamb-
ling room, for he has learned, and
now counts upon his proficiency to
hold his own The saloon men and
gamblers chuckle and smile whom
they read in the papers Of tho par
lor games given by the ladies, for
they know that after a while tn csc
same men will become the patrons
of their business. / say, then, the
parlor game is the college where
gamblers are Elado and educated
In the name Of COG, men, stop this
business in your homes"
After he had taken his Seat an-
othor converted eX-gambler, who led
the mems meeting IN the Second
Presbyterian church the following
Sabbath arose and said. "I endorse
every word which the brother before
mo has just uttered. was a gam
bier. | learned to play cards, not
in the saloon not in my own
homo but in tho home Of my young
friends who invited me to play
with them and taught mo how.'

 M-i-s-c-h-i-a.n-z-a is the only com. plnation of letters fitted to describe Co G's coming fete at the Citv hall rom April 21-26 despite the horticul- tural proverb about a rose by any otner names smelling as sweet. The aHalr will be absolutely unique in the entertainment world. As is the word M1schianza so will the created Mis- cnlanza be. The work of drawing and planning for it is going rapidly on. Scene painters, decorators, costumers. electricians have all been called upon to contribute of their several arts to make it marvellous and entertaining. Already the word Mischianza Is indel- ibly branded on the brains of q large number of the pupils of the public schools who have been racking those organs of their thoughts to find the meaning of the word and the popular novel in which it appears. The Bron- son library has been ransacked by them as but seldom for other subjects to illumine the mystery of the Mis- chianza. The cover will be taken off the mystery next week when the judges will report the names of the prize winners. The contest closed March 15. There were many entries. The prizes were offered for the best twenty-five word article on the mean ing of the word itself and the name of the popular novel in which it ap- pears. The pupils in all city schools were eligible to contest.

HallenbecE Murder Trial.

HUDSON, N Y, April 12.--New and important evidence was introduced by the state yesterday in the case of the Van Wormer brothers, charged with the murder of their uncle, ePeter A. HalIenbeck. Annie AIthauser testified to hearing Burton Van Wormer threat en to kill his uncle if he had chance, and Orviele Kellerhouse swore that Burton told him he would "get square" with Hallenbeck for foreclosing the mortgage on their farm. A number of witnesses were introduced to show that the three Van Wormer brothers and Harvey Bruce, their companion, also charged with the murder, but who has turned states evidence, were close to the scene of the tragedy on the night Hallenbeck was murdered, Dec. A, 1901. Harvey Bruce, it is understood, will be put on the stand by the state when the court opens again on Monday morning.

Entertainment Given by the Members
 of Training School.
 An entertainment for the benefit of art in the Waterbury Training school was given in the High school assembly hall last night. A large audience was present and thoroughly enjoyed the program which was varied and pleas ing enough to suit the most fastidious. The opening number, piano duet by the Misses Mary Kelley and Eulalia Madden, was well received. A select reading by Miss Delaney showed that this young lady possesses a fine voice which she uses well. The mandolin and guitar playing by the Misses Dodds was excellent. One of the most delightful numbers of the even ing was a vocal solo by Miss Rather inc Gloster A pantomime by nine young ladies was very good. The posing of the young ladies was pretty and graceful, while the reading by Miss Mary Kelley was marked with elearness of tone and accuracy or enunciation. Miss Cecilia Moriarty,s singing was heartily encored. Pro- lessor ]. J. Derwin rendered several banjo solos in his usually fine manner. A chorus by the pupil teachers of the Training school was marked for it's harmony and the perfect blending of the different voices. A reading by Miss Lillian Bowe showed that that young lady is an elocutionist of no mean ability. Miss Elizabeth Law lor's singing was beautiful. The real hit of the evening was made by Miss Winifred Ward. who delivered several recitations. Miss Ward is a favorite wherever she appears. The future has much in store for her. The clos ing number was a military drill, .An Echo From Camp" by the pupil teachers of the Training school. The figures executed were neat and pretty and the young ladies went through them with q facility and gracefulness which elicited continuous applause. The young ladies were drilled by Ser geant Thomas F. Lawlor of Company C.

A New York Race Riot.

NEW YORK, April 12.--West Thirty seventh street was convulsed by race riot last night. Before the police of the West Thirty-seventh street station could restore order more than dozen negroes had been beaten and cuffed by white men. The trouble was precipi- tated by a negro who says he is Holmes Esley, nineteen years old, of 249 West Thirty street.
