I'VE find the premises as a whole in

of drinking Half century ago 1t was a standard tipple. Its admirers will tell you that it has every quality to endear itself to man.
 Old rum drinkers will put themselves in evidence to prove that 1t is whole some drink when used with discretion They will also tell you that there is something about 1t which appeals to the palate and satisfies as no other liquor does.
 Why, then, has rum drinking passed away so largely? First. the civil war gave 1t a blow by imposing tax which increased it's price enormously. Then came the rapid rise of whisky. This was followed by the still greater bloom in beer. Between the two rum was good deal crowded out of fashion. for there are fashions in drinking as in other things.
 Rum drinking is somewhat of an ac- uuired taste. The old rum drinkers who appreciated the liquors good qualities continued to drink 1t: but the younger generation took to beer and whisky
 Then the evil reputation attached to the name of rum however undeserved, undoubtedly hurt 1t. Rum was at the height of its popularity when the tenn perance movement began to be vigorous. Being the most conspicuous liquor 1t re- ceived the brunt of the attack.
 The rum demon and the rum shop and rum itself have been made synonyms of intemperance and all its evils. Natur- ally enough the man who wants to drink and does not want to ruin himself hv drinking lights shy of rum and thinks nrudently to compromise by sticking to beer or whisky. That is another reason why rum drinking has ceased.
 Yet old rum drinkers declare that if a

 The high quality of the Santa Cruz sour has been mentioned. Its delicious flavor is due to the property possessed hy this rum above all others of harmon izing with and setting off the flavor Of fruits. It is this same quality which makes strawberry omelet with Santa Cruz rum seem to its admirers the very apotheoss of the strawberry.

 Other rum may be bought for as little as 30 cents a gallon in bond, Add the Government tax of N.10 a gallon and the price is brought up to $1 70. This is rum to be avoided. IL is fierv and harsh, In 1t are riot, arson and sudden death. It Is the rum sent to the heathen-

THE D1sAPPEARANCE OF RUM.
Queer Fate of ripple Whose Qual- ities are Often Praised.

New York Sun.
 Many a sensible old fellow who enjoys life will tell you that a Santa Cruz sour is the. finest of all summer drinks; but he is apt to add with a sigh:
 But where are you going to find any genuine old Santa Cruz rum nowadays?'
 Perhaps, by way of tantallZIng you, he will make refeFehces to some acquaint- ance who stip has jug of the nectar hidden away somewhere and who deals il out to his favored friends on red-hot days.
 In truth, Santa Cruz rum. like rum generally, seems on the surface Of things to be far along on the road to extinction. In most barrooms the stun served to the few customers who still call for 1t may be almost anything ex- cept genuine Santa Cruz. There is in- deed. a legend that they don't make any more rum on the island.
 As a matter of fact. fl IS asserted by those who should know that about as much rum as ever Is produced on the Santa Cruz sugar plantations, and con- noisseurs. for Santa Cruz rum rises to the dignity of having connoisseurs, de- clare that It's quality s as high as of old. The esteem in which if is held by ita remaining friends may be judged from inc fact that the best brings in this city as much as $1O or SIP a gallon at retail Now pretty good whiskey may be bought for half that price.

 For week ending Monday. Sept. sth. 1902:
 Temperatures averaged about normal with very general and, in some places. heavy rains; in fact, the long protracted drought has been generally broken in all portions of the State. The rains, while favorable for minor crops and some late corn. were too late for cotton and the sreater portion of the corn crop Cotton, as whole. continues in very poor con- dition. the greater portion of 1t has stop ped fruiting, with the bulk of the crop open and no prospect for a top crop; damage by rust and shedding has dimin- ished considerably; picking. which is be- ing pushed in all sections, was retarded by the rains, which also damaged much open cotton and caused some sprouting in bolls: in a few localities. the bulk of the crop has been picked, and the pres ent indications are that this will be the earliest and lightest crop made in this section fin many years. Very late corn has been improved by rains in some northern and q few southern counties. but the corn outlook Is also poor; much of the crop has been cut. and consider able housed, with a generally very light yield. Early sweet potatoes are be- ing marketed in fair condition with . lieh' yield; late potatoes. psas. peanuts, cane, and sorghum have improved stead- fly since the rains set in, though they will all make generally poor to fair yield only, except in a few favored localitie-, where such crops are quite promising; in some localities, potatoes are practically . failure; pastures are reviving, and there may yet be some late hay made; fo66er pulling is progressing rapidly, with much of this forage saved in good condition.
