Almost every family has one or more
brooms in the house. and very few have
any idea where the broom corn comes
from. or how 1t came to be grown here.
We may have told before, but it will
bear to be repeated that Benjamin
Franklin picked the first seed that
were ever planted here from an import
ed broom, and sent them to lady
friend to be planted. In 1899 the State
of Illinois had 95,137 acres in broom
corn, and produced G0,665,520 pounds,
valued at S2357 ,06G in the hands of the
growers. Kansas had 34,3S3 acres, and
the product was 11.S13,3l0 pounds,
worth $45S,4S1. Oklahoma had 1896
acres and crop of 3,41S,490 pounds,
worth $129,S13, and Missouri with 10,-
210 acres had 3,693.93 pounds. worth
$159.990. 1t will be seen that the larg-
est acreage does not always produce
the largest crop or the most money.
Texas had 3,743 acres and crop of L.
G3S. 150 pounds, worth $G0,313:. Arkan.
sas $40 acres, producing 3O4.6O9, worth

with 147,O2O pounds. worth $7,O1s.
There are amounts grown in other
States that bring the total crop up to
90,947 $40 pounds in 1899. and that was
thought n short year. though the yield
was probably less in 1900. California,
Iowa, Nebraska and Tennessee are
among the other States producing
broom corn. The value of the broom
corn crop averages about $50 per ton.

MEMORIAL SERVICES.
Bishop Capers Breaches Sermon on
 Life of Bishop Barnwell.

The memorial services in honor of the late Bishop Barnwell at St. Johns Epis. coral Church last evening were largely atte nded by the clergy and lay delegates who remained after the adjournment of the council to participate in this impres. sive occasion.
 The order of evening prayer was con. ducted by Rev. J. G. Murray, Rev. Stew. art Mcqueen and Rev. F. F. Cobbs.
 The memorial sermon was preached by the Right Rev. Ellison Capers. D. D. Bishop of South Carolina. and was a grand trib 1te to the beloved and depart ed prelate. He dwelt with fervor on his noble character as a man and his infiu- ence and power as a priest and Bishor and the wonderful good wrought through his ministraticns. It was such a discourse as is rarely heard and will long live in the memory of those listening to it.
 As had been previously announced, the amounts contributed by the various To- calities of the State were brought here by the clergy and laymen to be deposited on the aims basin at this service, the purpose being a memorial to the late Bishop Barrwell in the shape of home for his widow and children. The amount thus realized and laid on the aims basin last night was about $4,6OO, which will probably be increased to 5000. The home will be purchased in Selma. where the family has so long resided.
 The members of the council are pro- foundly grateful to Bishop Capers foI this visit and his tender and masterfu utterances on this occasions, so sadly sig nificant to every communicant of the church in this State.

 A platoon of mounted police acted as an escort for the President As the party swept into the broad avenue tremendous cheer went up and the side walks and stands were white with f1ut- tering handkerchiefs. The President acknowledged the demonstration by lift ing his hat and lowing right and left. In front of the reviewing stand the Presi- dents carriage was halted until the Citi- zens Committee and escort of General lorrence, the commander-in-chief, had passed.
 The journey down the avenue was made to the right of the veterans, the demon- stration swelling in volume as it proceed ed. Veterans and spectators alike cheer ed the appearance of the Chief Executive. The return Journey from the Peace monu- ment was made on the other side Of the avenue and at more rapid pace.

 When he returned to the White House Mrs. Roosevelt joined him and together they started out on drive through the northwest section of the city, returning through Rock Creek and Geological parks, but kept clear of the crowds. Several thousand people waiting outside the White House cheered their return.
 The Presidents ride down Pennsylvania Avenue along the line of march of the parade was an ovation for him and was a scource of great pleasure to the thou sands of marching veterans and the hun dreds of thousands of people packed in the streets and stands. The delightful weather eased the minds of his physicians as to the propriety of the President leav- ing the room in which he has been con- fined since his return from Indianapolis The arrangements for the ride to the Peace monument which was the eastern limit of the Presidents journey were most carefully arranged by the physicians and Secretary Cortelyou The physicians saw him during the morning and satisfied themselves that he could safely make the trip. He was in excellent spirits and looking forward to the ride with intense pleasure. The martial spirit within him was aroused by the prospect of seeing and greeting the heroes of the great war.

REFUSED TO MERGE.
Irrigation Congress Will Not Join
 With Trans Mississippi.


 Colorado Springs, Colo, Oct. S.-Th' National Irrigation Congress will retain its identity as an independent organza ton at least for another year. This wal decided at 10 o'clock tonight after a fierce parliamentary battle over the re- port of the Committee on Permanent Or ganixation recommending that the Con- gress merge with the Trans-Mississipp Congress.
 Col. Thomas Holland, National Coloni- zation Secretary of the Salvation Army, read a paper during the day prepared by Commander Booth Tucker. After refer ing to the success of the efforts of the Salvation Army in removing worthy but poor families, furnishing them with the necessary capital and settling them as home owners upon the land. the com mander said:
 "The fact that the present Irrigation Congress has included in its deliberations this great question of colonization will undoubtedly place the subject in an en- tirely new light before the country. Thus colonization, as the handmaid of irriga- tion, will bring within the reach of tho latter new confidence and possibilities and irrigation will prepare for colonization new realms of possi bility. while these combined sciences will open before the WorKlnR classes or tnlS country new Vt5- tas of help and home, will re-create that bulwark of national prosperity, the small farmer and will provide an immense home market for our productions.
 And what is more. the political party which will assist by legislation the twin bi others. irrigation and colonization, will surely intrench itself deeply in the affec- tions of the people, to whom it would prove itself so true a behefactor. It would not only be A full dinner pail to- day, but tomorrow and the day after. Such a policy it seems to be. breathes the very essence o! Christianity"
