One of the greatest foes with which
every family has to contend is our
changeable climate. To protect the
family from colds and coughs is always
serious problem, and often impossible.
Sooner or later it is the inevitable fate
of every one to catch cold. Care in
avoiding exposure and the use of proper
clothing will protect from the frequency
and perhaps the severity of colds, but
with the greatest Of precautions they
will come. This is settled fact Of
human experience.
Especially is this true during the
stormy Snd unsettled weather of early
winter. Everybody must expect to be
caught somewhere or somehow.
Perhaps it will be wet feet, or cold
drsught, or damp clothes, or may be too

The Summit County Horticultural
Society met Wednesday. the 18th, for
the March meeting, at the home of
Rev. and Mrs. Chas. Cutler, of Tall
madge.
In this hospitable home. the members
of the horticultural society and their
friends have been entertained many
times, during the past years since
the organization of the society.
A bountiful dinner was served to
about fifty members, and at the usual
time the meeting was called to order
by President C. n, Gaylord.
Rev., Mr.. scott, of Tallmadge, sang
one of his fine solos. which was great
ly enjoyed Mrs. Clark gave a fine
eading. We hope to hear from her
again.
The fine collection of ferns and be-
gonias belonging to the hostess. was
very much admired Mrs. Scott ex-
hibited pot of fine red and white tu-
lips.
1t was reported that there is pros
pect for a good crop of apples the
coming season. The subject of spray
ing fruit trees was discussed to some
length. The best authorities recon-
mend spraying before the buds begin
to swell. Trees should be sprayed a
second time. just after the buds begin
to open, and third time Just after
the falling of the bloom.
MIR. G. Z. Barnes. who is an extern
siye grape grower recommends the
use of Fostite, for spraying purposes.
This remedy is in the form of n very
| fine DUST, and is more easily handled
| than any of the various liquids used
for this purpose. The dust sprayed on
rose bushes will prevent mildew
Mr.. Stephen Baldwin gave very in
structive talk on entomology. Salt.
| lime and sulphur was recommended
| for the San Jose scale, which is MAX
ing its appearance in this state Care
must be taken in using this prepara-
tion. as salt is injurious to foliage
Mr.. G. n. Gaylord then gave the an
nual address of the president, subject:
Memories of the Summit County Hor-
ticultural Society" The excellence of
this paper was attested by the discus
sion which followed its reading.
Mr.. NJ Crawford. of Cuyahoga Falls,
the retiring president, who has so
faithfully sustained the society during
the past two years, and who is one of
| rho hptnfIil -
very instructive talk on the subject of
Grape Culture" Grapes are the east
est of all fruits to raise. They will
grow where nothing else will live.
They want plenty Of sunshine but
very little ran, if any. A warm dry
season, while so disastrous to many
fruits, is the very best for the grape.
The grape, although natural climber
should be kept closely pruned, as lar
ger and finer fruits can be produced.
A lengthy discussion followed this
talk.
Mr.. @. II. Barnes says grapes can
be kept till late in the winter If prop.
erly packed. A good sized box should
be used and covered on the bottom
with paper. On this layer of grapes
should be placed. This in turn should
be covered with Stats to prevent crush
ing, and when the box is full it should
be tightly covered, and kept in colo
room.
At o'clock the Society adjourned

ALMOST LIKE FICTION.
The Case of Truesdell the Old
York County Negro.

In regard to the case of the
negro Truesdell recently brought
back to the penitentiary after so
long period of freedom, as told
at that time, the Fort Mill Times
says:
"Hollis Truesdell, colored, the
escaped convict who was taken
to the penitentiary on Tuesday of
last week, made a clear confess
sion to Officer Nivens while en-
route, admitting that he was the
man wanted, told of his crime,
and related the circumstances
under which he escaped 80 years
ago. Truesdell said that he, with
q crowd Of other convicts, was at
york on the State farm, and be-
ing a trusty, was sent tu a spring
some distance away. He had no
intention Of running away when
ordered to 60 after water, but OH
reaching the spring a sudden de,
sire for freedom overcame him,
and he walked off unmolested
During the 80 years that have
elapsed since his escape he has
lived either in CASTOR county, n
c., or adjoining sections of South
Carolina. Truesdell stated that
if the authorities ever made any
effort to capture him he was not
aware Of it.
"Ofticer Nivens says that on
account of the old negro's ad
vanced age and his good charac-
ter during his two years stay in
Fort Mill township, he recon-
mended him to the authorities at
Columbia, all Of whom were
strangers to Truesdell, and sue
ceeded in having him put to
work again as a truSty. Officer
Nivens thinks that if a petition
was properly signed and present
ed to the governor there would
be no trouble in obtaining par
don for the old man.

SERGEANT sHER1DAN's SKILL
A New Yorker Who Has Wondrous
 Memory for Criminals.

Brooklyn Eagle.
 One of the strongest faculties ever be- slowed upon a man is possessed by Ser geant William P. Sheridan, who is in charge of the Identification Bureau-the Bertillon Bureau, they call it-of the New York Police Department He can Identify any man he has once seen, and in addition can remember his name, his occupation, his age and nationality, as well as any other peculiarities which may have appeared at the time of the first meeting.
 Dsguises give absolutely no protection against recognition by Sergeant Sheri- dan. Again and again criminals, detec- tives and his personal friends have tried to deceive him. It has always been in vain. The man has never been known to make mistake in Identification. Daily at police headquarters, he identifies crim- inals whom he has not seen for ten years; often, too. he recognizes them from photographs, having never before seen the original of the plcture.
 At a rough estimate Sergeant Sheridan knows 5O,O00 criminals. This does not mean that he merely knows their names and their records. 1t means that he knows them as well as man knows his wife; it means that Sergeant Sheridan knows the facial and bodily peculiaritles or edcn one, that ne remembers tnslr names and aliases. the date upon which they were arrested, the charge mada against them. the name of the police man who made the arrest, the date and extent of the sentence and in what prison it was served. In other words he remembers every fact that may be writ ten down on the back of the criminals photograph in the Rogues' Gallery. and often enough he is able to recall the number of the picture in the gallery No criminal with a record has ever succeeded in getting past Sergeant Sher- idan, So well is this fact known by the dishonest fraternity that the old time men never think of trying 1t. As soon as they are brought before Sheridan they confess their identity.
 When it Is said that Sergeant Sheridan has never made a mistake in the idcnt- itcation of criminal the statement must be taken in it's absolutely literal sense However remarkable it may seem that man who has been in the Police De- partment for nearly thirty years should never have made an error in this, the most difficult of tasks the fact is as it has been written. It is a thing admit ed by criminals and attested by every off cial~and man of standing in the Police Department. It seems miraculous, but 1t Is true.

were shipped over ahead and though black disaster was the sum of the adven- turers' reward, the Croker horses re- mained in England, Dobbins, the best of the establishment, and one of the few that ever won in England, later being placed at the head of the breeding farm established by Mir. Croker at Vantage.
 Mir Dwyer, on the other hand, admitted defeat by returning to America with the remnant of his once powerful stable, af- ter having lost the best of his horses and great sum in bets. A failure thus was the beginning of the Croker racing venture abroad. but, failure or otherwise, MT. Croker has clung to English racing with rare tenacity and in spite of all re- verses. His first years experience with American trainers and jockeys in Eng land determined him to try his fortune with native talent, and the Vantage farm was rented and transformed into train ing quarters.
 MT. Croker was none too familiar with racing then, and was almost wholly ig- norant of English methods and one re- suit of this knOwl edge was that when ha returned to Am e,i3a, leaving his hors 5 in England, he took it for granted that the English groom, who had been pro- noted to be his trainer, would care for the horses as would an American public trainer. The employe, however, had no authority to act as MT. Croker's agent. and as no provision for the purchase of food for the horses or for the natural expenses of training had been made the Croker horses almost starved to death before the omission could be repaired.
 Mr. CrOFer in the meantime had be- come impressed with the idea that the American horses were superior to the English. and on his next visit to the tinted States added to his stable in Eng land by paying a great price for the horse Rev Del Carreres, later called America. and by leasing the horse Roy el santa Anita. Both of these animals proved failures however, and swelled the h 'ses of MT. Croker by about S500o This f.jlure induced him to try another experiment in buying the English horse Little Saint and ser ding him to America Little Sant making another failure.
 Two years ago Mir. Croker, having been unable to win races in England, returned to his first method in racing. and by puT- chase acquired tried and proved race horses in America, and established small American stable to race on the New York tracks. In this establishment the most conspicuous horses were Beau Gal lant and Bellario, the two having cost him about $35, GOO Like all the other CrO- kcr purchases, these horses failed so ut them sold at the end of the first season, and since that time, year ago, he has had no interest in horses in this country, his racing being confined entirely to the establishment at Vantage, which, eXpen- siVe as 1t was at the beginning, is grow ing in size and cost with each season.
 The actual cost of training his horses aside from the first cost of the horses themselves. and the huge sum that must be required to engage them in stakes and pay forfeits. cannot be less in England than in America, where the expense is estimated at about $l 900 a head per year for training. Added to that cost the for

quarters, in Mulberry Street, Manhat- tan, there are, in the old and new gall leries, more than 5000 portraits of crim- inals. You can pick out dozen of the pictures at ranlon, shuttle them as much as you please. Then let Sergeant Sher- idan see the face of any one of the lot, without touching the picture, and he will tell you whose portrait it is. the mans criminal history and aliases. and in ad- dition he Is quite likely to be able to give you a list of the scars. tattooings and other marks which are noted at the foot of the written record on the back of the portrait.
 It is because of this extraordinary gift that Sergeant Sheridan is so greatly feared and hated by the criminals of the United States. He is the final court of appeals in doubtful cases. When some country police off .er is lucky enough to catch a man who has attempted to break into the local bank he knows pretty we'll that the prisoner is not telling the truth when he says that his name is Henry James" and denies that he h1s ever been arrested before. The country policeman thinks it Is quite likely that he has caught a man who is very well known as a criminal and for whose arrest large rewards are offered. Wishing to identify his prisoner he has a photograph taken of him, and. if he Is wise, he sends it to Sergeant Sheridan.
