ABOUT SERVIA:
THE RECORD OF KING ALEX.
ANDER,
A Bit Of Servian History.

Kinston Free Press.
Servia has had a bloody history
The country is small one, about the
size of North Carolina, and has pop.
ulation Of some 1000 900 people.
The ancient Thracians who inhabIt
ed the country were conquered BY slayr
coming down from Russian territor,
beyond the Carpathian mountains
These new comers called tbemselvee
ssryians. They were ruled by chiefe
until about 144O, when one OF their
number became king.
The Servians were conquered by the
Turks, and for nearly two centuries
Servfa remained more or less under
Turkish rule.
Finally, during the last quarter Of
the 18th century, Kara (Black) George
came upon the scene. He rallied tho
Servians, and strove valiantiy for
national independence against the
TURK, but In vain.
About 1913 Milosh Obrenovltch. son
OF poor farmer Iaborer, and himself .
dealer in hogs, became a prominent
man in his community, led tic Ser
vians against the Turks, and freed
them entirely from Constantinople.
Intrigue followed intrigue, and as
sassinatfons we're not uncommon.
On August IA, 1876, was born Alex
ander, who was recently assassinated In
the palace. Succeeding to the throne
at tender age an uneventful career
awaited the young man.
In the last ten years the chief inter-
est that the world has had In Alexan-
der has been in following the rumors
OF his love affairs-unrequited though
they were in every case but one. These
rumors at one time or another con-
nected his name with every eligible
Princess in Europe. Directly and indi-
rectiy he paid his court-now through
his father, now through the Russian
representative in Belgrade. now by
personal correspondence.
It seems that in 1896 Alexander paid
a visit to his mother. There he had
seen Nine. Draga and had become
enamored of her. She was sixteen
years his senior and his mothers trav-
cling companion. When Alexander
returned to Belgrade. Nine. Draga
followed him. While it was now ad-
mitted in all quarters that this episode
forever precluded Alexander from seek
ing a matrimonial alliance with any
respectable continental royal house, 1t
was not supposed at the time that his
intentions in regard to Nine. Draga,
who was the divorced wife OF German
physician, were serious. They proved
to be 80, however. On August 5, 1900,
he married her.
This alliance proved so thoroughly
distasteful to the Servian people that
opposition sprang up on eyery hand.
There being no heir to the throne,
Draga endeavored to secure the sue
oession for brother, and this, added
to the atrocities Of the queen, incited
the populace to fury.
The world knows the outcome OF
that fury, when the army took 1t upon
itself to rid the nation of q worthless
king and worse than worthless queen.

Strawberry Fields After Fruitiug

Selected.
The most successful strawberry grow.
ers pillow up their fields as soon as the
berries are all gathered and SOW them
in cowpeas thus putting the land in
perfect tilth to reset in strawberries the
following fall, winter or spring as may
be most convenient. But the vast
majority of growers gather two and
sometimes three crops OF berries from
the same field.
How to do this successfully is the
object of this article. Bar off with o
turning plow the strawberry rows, leav
ing unplowed strip about foot wide
containing the plants. On this strip
chop ont the plants leaving them about
eighteen inches apart. Always leave
young Zone year old) plants instead OF
old ones when possible. In this chop
ping out also kill all weeds and grass
A week or ton days later sew cotton
seed meal at the rate of 800 to l zoo
pounds an acre in the furrow left on
each side of the row. Then split ou,
the middles, throwing the earth closely
around the plants, but not on them or
they will be smothered.
Whenever practicable, though with
a large acreage it is not usually practi-
cable, it pays to burn off the field CT
bed before barring off. To do this
NOW the foliage OF the plants as closely
as possible. Then loosen up the straw
used as mulch and on a dry breezy
day after the moved foliage has got
dry. set fire to the field along the bor-
der to windward. It there is fair
quantity of foliage or mulch the field
will burn quickly over leaving the soil
as clean as floor. Weeds, seed and
any insect pest that may chance to be
present will meet their judgment day,
and to a novice the strawberry plants
will seem to haye done so too. But
seeming will be all.
In week, or earlier If it rains, In
the fire blackened, Saharalike field a
magic transformation will take place.
Every strawberry plant will have put
forth leaves of the most, VIVID and
beautiful growth. The rows can the n
be barred off, chopped out, fertllized
and treated just as above directed.
Subsequent cultivation should be
the same as for young fields-shpllow
plowing with small tooth cultivator
and shallow hand. hoeing frequent
enough to kill all grass and weeds be-
fore they come and to keep the crust
on the soil broken. This is all impor-
tant, as in dry time 1t greatly lessons
evaporation and minimizes the effect
of draught. G. w. BLACKNALL,

MOORE REAL ESTATE AGENCY
Some Tempting Bargains Advertised
by this Old and Well Known .-
Firm.


Mr.. J. f. Moore, the old and we'll
known real estate agent, doubles the
size of his advertisements in The
Daily Progress, commencing with to-
days issue
By reterringssto the list of bargains
as shown in the advertisem ent, it will
be seen that some especially tempting
ones are offered.
For instance the lot 100x200 feet
within two blocks Of the public school
building-this piece of property
within a few years from now is more
than likely to double itself in the
value that Mr.. Moore now has placed
upon, and then all of the other pieces
that he offers, possess merit as profit
winners, and those anticipating the
purchase of property for investment
or otherwise, should lose no time in
seeing Mr.. Moore, as hls references
are gilt edge, and he will carry out
to the letter, any contract or deal he
makes. See advertisement.

thus far for the clerkship of the house
is Hon. L. Pink Smith, of Washing
ton, who has served in this capacity
for the past eight years, and who
will be difficult to defeaF. The same
may be said of Hon. John Y. Murray,
Jr., who has served under two admin
istrations as secretary of the senate,
and will doubtless be able to retain
the place if he desires it.
There are always an innumerable
host of candidates for doorkeepers,
sergeants- -at-srms, &C., and almost
every lawmaker has his candidate fol
page. In the new capital building il
will be necessary to increase these
forces considerably as the contingent
expenses of the coming session will
perhaps be double those of any session

UNIFORM TEXT BOOKS.
Bill for Adoption of This Measure
Will Be Presented in Next
Legislature.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress
Jackson, Sept. st is a foregone
conclu ion that a bill providing for
the adoption of a uniform system of
school books in Mississippi will be
offered at the coming session OF the
legislature, and that spirited fight
will be made thereon.
Uniform text books was one of the
secondary issues of the recent cam
paign, but it attracted but little at
tention among the people, owing 10
the overshadowing Importance of the
so-called race issue. The school book
problem comes before the legislature,
and not the people, for solution, and
the introduction of such a measure
will be the signal for renewal OF
the attacks that have been biennially
made for the past eight years, and
which in each instance resulted IL
the defeat of the school book bill. II
will be productive of the most thor
oughly organized lobby ever brough
into the capital. and it will not b
surprising If the fight is prolonge'
from the beginning almost TO the en'
of the session.
