Fruit Culture in Mobile.

Much has been said of the development of lands in this section of Alabama, but nothing has ben said of Mobile County as regards the development of the fruit industry. It is only recently that fruit culture has reached this immediate sec- tion and so far, experiments have demon strated that Mobile County's so-called arid pine lands will produce as fine fruit as any in the South.
 At Cottage Hill, a settlement seven miles west of the city. on Government Street way, c. Augustus Muths last year set out thirty-two acres of hillside in Alberta" and "Slappy" peaches, the intervening spaces between the trees being set out with grape vines. On the thirty-two acres he planted $40 trees. Notwith- standing the fact that it cost considerable money to make the experiment, MT. Muths gave his full attention to the peach and grape settings and his faithfulness bids fair to be we'll rewarded. He will gather some peaches from his yearling peach trees and great quantities of grapes from his vines. So well pleased is he that he will put in seventy addi- tional acres this fall. and he will include figs in the planting. He is encouraged as to this latter industry. because of hav- ing 800 fig trees in full bearing at his home place just beyond the corporate limits on Government, Street. He ex- poets to plant 1000 fig tres on this land.
 This is' but one Of many instances of successful fruit culture in this and ad- joining counties in Alabama and the pre- diction is a safe one that within five years South Alabama will rival West Georgia in this particular.

Religious Services at Park.

Monroe Park Theatre which witnesses the presentation of light opera six nights of the week, is to be devoted to another purpose on the remaining seventh. By invitation of the management. the clergy of the city will hold evening services there every Sunday night at o'clock during the remainder of the summer
 There will be a short form of evening prayer and address by some clergyman or layman. and 1t is believed that these services will reach a large class of people who are deterred from attending the hot churches of the city. At all events. 1t Is an experiment that deserves to succeed.

To hark back to the strenuous Fourth and it's varied celebrations, 1t is unani- mously agreed that the Country Club carried off the honors of the day.

There were speeches. of course, and music. refreshments. too. from ices, cakes and punch, to more com monplace beer and cheese sandwiches to say nothing of an overfioweing fsun- tain of high balls. The Hunter cup han dlcap was the leading event of the day, and a number of contestants, qualified and qut up good games MT. Frank Ruse went them one better. however, and now has the proud distinction of carving his name upon the cup of fame. The surprise of the day was sprung upon Mir. Robert Hunter. the father of golf in Mobile, and rattling good player any where. A half dozen gentlemen. appre- ciating his efforts in behalf of the club and the development of interest in the game, clubbed together and purchased a very handsome pair of cut-glass whiskey jugs with half dozen glasses to match, and this was presented MT.

PORCUPINE LAW is "N. Co.

So Says Com. Ring After Visiting
Washington and Hancock Counties.
Forestry Commissioner Ring has re-
turned from trip through Hancock and
Washington counties, where be has been
in conference with tire wardens and own
ers OF wild lands.
He says that the land owners all speak
in the highest terms OF the new warden
system, and say that without doubt it
saved the two counties many thousands of
acres OF valuable timber land. The good
results, so they told Mr.. Ring, which re-
suit from the system were much greater
than they had expected, and proved to
them what good idea II was.
What gave Mr.. Ring the most surprise
during his trip was the universal condem-
nation OF the porcupine bounty by the
land owners.
They attribute" said Mr.. Ring, "a
third Of the fires which ragged in Hancock
and Washington counties to the men who
were out hunting these snima's.
"Resuits such as these cannot fall to
surprise one. That the porcupine does
iniure the forests no one will deny, but
one hre, started by those who pursue him
in the hope OF gain, will do more dam
age than will all the porcupinss in Maine
for the next hundred years. But The men
who urged the law did not think OF this
possibility when they advocated the bill.
Another thing which makes the por-
cupine law bad one is that 1t permits
any man to hunt them at all times. 1t
allows any man to be in the woods with
be there, so long as he is hunting porcu-
pines. But l am convinced that these
men Kill great amount OF game illegally.
IL Is poor law, and should be repealed as
quickly as possible"

uAyoR BEAL CRITICISED
-, Rev. S. l.. Hanscom in Letter
to the Bangor News.

~ Rev. S. l.. Hanscom In a Letter
to the Bangor News.
Ina recent letter to the Bangor NetDs
o., 6. l.. Hanscom, Hancock county's
.ronld. be prohibition sheriff severely
a.,,ic,ses Mayor Beal for letting the Ban
ror saloons and Kitchen bars remain open
,,,,bout moleststion from him. Follow
,no ia Mr.. Hanscom's letter:
Editor Bangor Daily Neios:
s1R.-If Mayor Beal Is correctly reported in
.Ourissue of this date, be certainly ought to re.
s,gu his office at once.
The last republican State convention adopted
nlattorm containing this plank: Every pro.
r,sion upou our statute books for the promo.
Atom OF temperance, was put there by the repub-
ucan party, which has always stood for So
br,ety and thrift among the people of our State.
yve favor the continuance of all such statutes,
and demand their faithful and impartial en-.
,o,cement by the officers Of the law"
This plank was not "put 10 at the last minute,
and then, after most Of the delegates had left
,he hall. read by some one with thin, squeaky
voice that could not be heard ten feet, as the
MAYOR says is generally the case. 1t was put
IN. and read distinctly In the presence of the
delegates, and adopted without opposition on the
convention floor. The republican party de.
mands of Mayor Beal that he faithfully and i'm.
partially enforce the prohibitory law in Bangor.
Instead of doing so he raves at the law
smtes the court for doing Its duty, impeaches
the honor of "the legislature that enacted the
Imprisonment clause, and says: al would not
support an officer of the police force In raidng
or closing up a respectable saloon"
He also says: "Ali the kitchen groggeries
and disrepntable places running In full blast
even Sundays. I know this, for have OBJ.
served 1t myself"
The mayor need not add 81 am not republi
can"
But worse tn IN this, has he not, by his own
confession. betrayed his trust. and violated his
oath Of office? II Is not competent for an exec
utiye officer to make or unmase law. or to ain
gle out certain laws to be enforced and others
to be nulliaed. or to pass Judgment on the
merits or dement's OF any laws.
The laws are made for him. and his whole
business, as an officer, is to administer them
faithfully and In partially. The mayor has no
more right TO say that he would not support an
officers of the police force In raiding or closing
up respectable saloon, than he has to say that
he would not support an officer In arresting a
respectable thief.
II the citizens of Bangor, silently and with.
out protest. allow their mayor To place their city
In the attitude of official rebellion against the
constitution and laws of our State, the odium
must be theirs. S. l.. HAssCoM
