THE CRESCENT Cry News,

Hon. James r. Howe of Brooklyn,
N. Y, arrived last week and is at
Grove Hall for brief sojourn much
to the pleasure of Crescent City peo-
pie, who always enjoy his annual
visits. Mr.. Howe represented a New
York district in congress two terms
and was afterwards register of Kings
county. This latter office, under the
fee system, gave the register an an
nual income of fully $4,000. During
his incumbency of the office Mr..
Howe pushed bill through the as
sembly making the Office salaried
one with the salary fixed at $4,000.
From the proceeds Of the office dur
ing his incumbency he donated to
the city of Brooklyn an equestrian
statue of Washington. Mr.. Howe is
not now in public life. He says he
has had enough. He has a large de-
partment store in Brooklyn and is q
man of wealth and influence which

Successful Meetings.

The gospel meetings which have
been conducted by Rev. and Mrs. l..
S. Chafer at the Presbyterian church
during the past two weeks came to
an end on Thurday night. During
the past week meetings have been
held twice a day and the deep in
terest of the people was evinced by
the crowded condition of the church
at each and every service. The visit
of Mr.. and Mrs. Chafer will long re-
main in the memory of the people as
possibly the most important event in
the moral and religious history of the
place, while many will in after years
refer to it as the turning point in
their lives. 1t is rare that an evan
gelist is given so general u hearing
as was accorded Mr.. Chafer. and the
result will prove quickening of
spiritual life in the churches. There
were a number of conversions. Mr..
and Mrs. Chafer go from here to
Tampa.

ing of Irish potatoes, sugar cane
beans, peas and other garden truck.
Strawberries which received q set
back in the last frost are again ripen-
ing very fast. Early peach trees
have donned their spring dress of
brilliant green and we find, notwith-
standing the heavy frost when they
were in full bloom that in some of
the orchards as much fruit has set
as is profitable for our young trees to
bear. The frost merely did the thin
ming out that would have taken
many days of hard work to accom-
plish. Late peaches are now nicely
in bloom also some early varieties
of the plum, the excelsior a marked
example.
Several acres of Irish potatoes are
put in on the prairie this spring, Mr.
Knight and Mr.. PuritOn being the
largest planters thus far.
Quite an increased acreage of su-
gar cane is also planted. In order
to get more information regarding
