Giving Sailors Away.

The men that deal in sailors are signing
for a return Of the old days OF blood money
and would be satisfied II time would
roll back to the day of moderately profitable
commissions and there stop. The talk OF
huge profits in this traffic in mariners has
attracted an unusual number OF operators and
the competition has grown keener from day
TO day. There are many sailors now in port.
quite n number Of ships going elsewhere to
seek charters and fairly brisk demand for
crews. The men that supply these crews have
divided into hostile camps and cut-rate
war is n0~ being waged to the almost total
wiping cat Of profits. In former days, not
counting the pslmy periods of generous blood
money. the boarding master received $50 for
each man supplied and out of this he paid
a commission OF $50 to the runner who found
the man The boarding master under con-
citions as they prevail to-day receives only
S17 80 per man. That is gross and out OF
it comes Jacks board and the runners COM
mission.
The business is on the rocks" said one
sailor dealer yesterday We're giving sailors
away and still fighting each other. The old

have the Calimyrna fig produced In this

The Horticultural Convention.

Every man who owns a garden
OF. an orchard should have attend
ed this gathering of experts and
experienced fruit and vegetable
growers. We regret that while it
was the writer's pleasure to attend,
lack of space precludes the posi-.
bility Of full account of lis pro
ceedings. Experts, who have
made scientific and experiment.
al study of irnit, nurserymen OF
large experience, ard practical,
successful fruit growers were there,
all contributing of their, store of
information to the edificatlon Of
those assembled. Col. r. b. Wat
son, the pioneer fruit grower of the
Ridge, stated that he knew OK one
orchard of four acres that would
net $400 and another of 16 acres
that would net its owner $1,000
this year. He also stated that in
his experience Of thirty two years
he had only two total failures.
This is proof positive that fruit
growing for the market is practi-
cable and profitable. No other crop
will pay so we'll. 1t was urged
that greater quantities of small
fruits, such as grapes and straw
berries, be grown. Upon the whole
this was very interesting and
profitable convention.

Frem His Former Master.

&dr Editor: Please allow me
space in your columns to mention
the death of that faithful old color
cd man-Tartar ,Sheppard-who
hreathed his last in his house ON
tfe premises Of his young master,
nns'the night of the 9th of thi>
month. l ieel it to be a duty. aS
well as pleasure. to give pubic
expression to my sincere apprecia,
ton Of his character, and his hum
bic and faithful life.
He had tho entire respect ana
confidence of all the white people
who knew him; he was always pc.
Its, always humair, and always in
his place.
My father bought Urvie Tartar
when the writer was quite Il small
boy and he has been almost with
out interruption, with oGr family
ever since-the last twelve years of
his life being spent in house in
my yard.
1t will be Impossible for the gen
eral public 20 realize how my Gami-
ly wiltsniss him; he WAS always III
his place, always ready to wait up
on us, day or night made no differ
ence with him. Indeed, to me and
my family he WAS more than du
titul servant-hC was Il faithful
friend.
And now that he has gone, il is
a source of great pleasure and graf
ification to us, that we always free
ly and cheerfully gave him just
what he wanted, nothing that could
contribute To his happiness nr to his
pleasure was withheld from him.
Whenever | had to leave home
/ was always satisfied that no harm
would come to my wife and daught.
ers, as Uncle Tartar was in thu
yard, Whenever L hId to leave
home | would say - him: Now
take care of everything Until | get
back" he would smile and say
addressing me in the respectful
manner he always did: eyes, Sir,
will take care of every thing
don't sleep much when you ar!
gone"
IT. is a source of great comfort t,
me to believe that my old fricnt
was not only faithful in the per
formance Of his duty to man, bu
was equally faithful to his God, ant
/ honestly believe that he is now
really and truly at rest. lfhiS rX
! ample shuu!d lie emuiated by more
of his race, there would be nothing
heard Of trouble between the whi:r:
and blacks. / commend his exam
pie and his life to his colGrpd friends
My old friend was faithful before
the war, faithful during the war
and faithful to the last, Such lif'
is worthy of public notice, and /
gives me sincere pleasure To recofC
this short. Lut truthful tribute Il
his memory. 0, SHEPPARD.
