A Long way from the Finish.

The Cape-to-Cairo railway would be
S,TOO miles long in a direct line be-
tween Cape Town and Cairo. At the
present time the rails are laid to With
IN 200 miles Of the Zambesi, or about
1900 miles from Cape Town, and there
"a now q railway from Cairo to the
junction Of the blue and white Nile,
or 1,40O miles from Cairo. It is thus
seen that 9 line 1850 miles long must
vet be built to connect these terminal
Systems. The Uganda railway is
built, connecting the port Of Mom-
hasa, on the Pacific ocean, with Port
Florence, on Lake Nyanza; the length
Of the line is 500 miles. The Bulawayo-
Beira railway connects the system
with the ocean at the last mentioned
port At Bulawayo the line is 4,46o
leet above sea level

The Ceta Picnic.

Saturday News reporter in
company with Judge Henson
went to the Sunday School pic
mic at Ceta. 1t was held at the
school house and our reporter
was Informed that "nearly ev-
erybody' was there. There
was a full house anyway,
The entertainment began
about 10 a. IN. and consisted of
bible talks by the superinten-
dent and other adults, recita-
tons by the children and in
cluded two excellent sermons
on the Sunday School and its
mission by Rev. Gipson and
Rev. L. Il. Cole of Fanchon.
The program was a good one
and was carried out nicely; the
music was fine and the singing
was equal to anything the News
man has heard since his advent
on the Plains. This reporter
has attended hundreds of Sun
day school picpics but never
one before which called up such
vivid memories of Eye olden'
puritan Gays-all religion and
no fun whatever. The exercises
were all had in the school house
and lasted until the time of part
ing, which was we'll up in the

evening. There was dinner
of course, a regular "blue room
repast, one that should have
satisfied that celebrated Roman
general and epicure, Lucellus,
had he been present to enjoy it.
But he was not there, unless as
strongly limited by the Judge,
he, or some other noted epicur-
can spirit occupied the earthly
tabernacle of the News repre-
sentative during the refresh
ment hour. Be this as itTnav,
our reporter admits here and
now that he did ample justice
to the spread and he takes this
occasion to thank the good peo-
pie of Ceta not only for this
the physical feast without, but
for the spiritual food so well
served within the school house.
1t seemed to be day of enjoy
ment for all.
A direct result of the trip to
the News was the addition of
the following subscribers: j.
NJ. Evans, w. J. Sluder, W. B.
Walters and A. N. Woodland.
Many others who were handed
sample copies stated that they
would subscribe in the near flu
ture.
The News is under obligations
to several Ceta citizens for
courtesies extended and espec-
tally so to that staunch citizen
John Rowan. Truly, there is a
good country and a splendid
class of people about Ceta.

rested Friday evening, charged &itA the
usurder Of Joseph Gray on the railroad
track at Long Run Thursday night. The
accused Is . son Of Anantas Davis, re-
siding ut Long Run.
Gray was employed in the OIL fields.
and the company owed him pay for one
and one-half months. BE had been TO
Salem TO draw 1t. BE drew the money
for one month, and then wanted to draw
the residue, but the superintendent did
not give 1t to him. Instead, he told him
to come back and he would give him n
check for. part of it. He left the money
he drew with his sister, except s., which
he took back to Salem with him. Upon
his second visit the paymaster gave him
check for $lO50, and he had this and
the So when he was murdered. Davis
got the check and money, it Is claimed.
1t is stated that Davis knew that he
had drawn his pay and TINT ne ambush
ed himself until Gray came along and
then engaged him in quarrel and shot
him twice, once in the hend and the other
time in the stomach.
According to the best information OBJ
tainablc, Gray recognized Davis and told
his people about it before he died, but
they Thought it best not to tell the pub
lie until an arrest could be made.
Davis was taken by the officers max
ing the arrest to the jail at Vest Union,
where he viii be kept for preliminary
hearing and doubtless VIII be held with
ont bond for the grand jury.

Easy Way of Raising Potatoes.

The method of potato culture which
| shall describe is, | think, quite unus.
ual, and it saved much work and gave
good results, as practiced on our farm
last year, The field was in sod and
we plowed it last spring, using rever
sible pillow with coulter so each furrow
could be cut and turned evenly. After
turning one furrow on one side of the
field, commercial fertilizer, containing
large percentage of potash and low
nitrogen. was scattered along the fur
row at the rate Of I 800 pounds per acre.
Then the seed was dropped in the fur
row about foot apart and close to the
side of the furrow, so the line of seed
would be just where the furrow would
lap, and the plants would thus come
up between the burrows instead of
through the sod. In this way the seed
was dropped in every third furrow. A
ew days after planting the field was
inely narrowed ) or I inches deep.
The narrowing was continued until the
plants were several inches high, after
which a one-horse cultivator was used.
The frequent cultivation kept the soil
mellow and the weeds down, and sat
'factory crop was produced at the
mallest cost Of any crop we ever
rev.
