SAM JONES' HOT SHOT.

Rev, Sam Jones, the Georei,
evangelist, who was one Of tn,
speakers at the Bloomington Chsu
tauqua, was asked while there
what, in his opinion, was respon
sible for the race wars in the
North, particularly the Danville
and Evansville riots. He said
in response:
IL have lived among negroes all
my life, and know them pretty
well, and in my mind there is not
much in this excitement among
them. Now this lyuching bust
ness is no anarchy. If a mad dog
or wild beast runs through the
streets and bites some one, the
thing to do is to kill it, and kill it
before it before it does any more
harm. There is not much differ
ence between a wild beast and a
negro who will attack white wo-
men. Why, in the South the re-
spectacle blacks help the whites

There may be a thousand bad

THE AGILE OSPREY.
A Hungry Bird and Tragedy of "a
Trout Stream.

A big brown and white bird came
sailing up the trout stream, his long
wings stretched far out to right and
left. He flew slowly, for he was look
ing for something something that he
wanted very much. He was doing his
family marketing. Up in the top of
big pine tree mile away his wife was
sitting on a nest full Of eggs, and it
was both his duty and his pleasure to
find a supper for her. Suddenly he
stopped short. He had caught sight of
the thing for which he was searching
a dusky, shadowy sEaTo With an out
line like that of a ST u le torpedo
boat, lying moveless II ear water
For just an instant n 81, 4ed to hang
poised in the air. but it was only long
enough to change the direction of his
motion: then down he went with a
rush and a swoop.
The brook trout saw him coming and
tried to dart away, but it was too late.
With a mighty splash the osprey
struck the stream and went clear I'M
der and out of sight, while the water
boiled and surged over him. He could
not see for the commotion about him,
but his aim had been true, and his out
stretched feet touched q slippery,
Shiny, wriggling body that was just
beginning to gather Roadway.
Quicker than wink his toes closed
about it and his sharp talons sank
deep into the trout's flesh. Then up he
came, rising out Of the stream like
some tabled monster of old and shak-
ing the water from his feathers in
shower of flying drops. Every thread
of muscle in his wings and breast was
working with all it's might to lift that
heavy trout. Up went the birds great
pinions till they were straight above
him; then down they came, flashing the
air like whips Up again and down, up
and down, up and down, harder and
faster and fiercer, and little by little
he and his victim rose from the stream
till at last they were clear of the tree
tops, then straight away to the nest
in the old pine, where the wife was
waiting to make them both welcome

The Russian Amsterdam.

st. Petersburg is one of the few great
cities which have been made and not
born. During his residence in Holland
Peter the Great was so impressed by
Amsterdam, perched upon the waters,
that he determined to abandon Moscow
and build a new capital which should
have canals for streets. In his cam
paign against Sweden in 1902 he noted
an island situated in the midstream of
the Neva. Here is my Russian AM
sterdamr' lie exclaimed and immedi-
ately began the building of city there.
The site was a marsh in summer and
a frozen morass in winter. Two mis-
cradle huts were the only buildings.
The erection of the citadel, a great fort
in the shape of hexagon, with tow
er $50 feet high, on the north bank Of
the Neva, was his first care. The cot
tage in which Peter lived while laying
out the city still exists.

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.

The northern slope of hillside is
the best location for an apple orchard.
The pear will come as near bearing
a crop of fruit every year as any other
kind of fruit.
If the currant worm makes its ap-

dew is on with white hellebore.
In transplanting plants from pots in
vert the pot and rap the bottom of it
sharply, and the plant will come out.
An overloaded grapevine will not
mature it's fruit. If it bears more
than it ought it will ripen its fruit

Air slaked lime sprinkled on rose
bushes when the dew is on will de-
stroy insects without injuring the

Rose plants should have plenty of
light and heat. Nothing will blight
their buds sooner than shade and
moisture.
Nearly all cultivated fruits are liable
to overbear. This is always injurious
and should be prevented. One of the
best preventiyes is thinning.
One of the best places to use coal
ashes is around the base Of the fruit
trees. Put a mound of them around
each tree. Borers will not be so apt to
trouble them.

To make peppermint drops take a

moistened with boiling water; then boil
five minutes; take from the fire and
add cream of tartar the size of a pea !;
mix we'll and add half teaspoonful of
essence of peppermint; beat briskly
until mixture whitens, then drop quick
ly upon white paper; have cream of
tartar and essence of peppermint meas
ured while the sugar is boiling; if it
sugars before it is all dropped add a
little water and boil minute or two.
Wintergreen drops are made the same
way by using half teaspoonful of
essence of wintergreen.

The Trxxela of a Jewel.

Fanny Kemble when in the United

attentions Of wealthy lunatic. When
finally rejected by her he flung pack
age upon the table, exclaiming, well

The parcel proved to contain very
beautiful jewel. The actress was not
long permitted to retain 1t. She saw
no more of her prosecutor, but did not
remain under any sense Of obligation
to him. The gem was stolen from her
before she quilted the United States.
She forgot all about it in the course of
the years that followed. A very long
time afterward she was in Italy. A
peddler displayed the contents Of his
pack before her at Sorrento. There lay
the long lost jewel. Through whose
hands it had passed there was nothing
to show.
