Raising Cotton in New Jersey.

An attempt at cotton raising is being
made at Summit, N. j., by Mr.. G. Il.
Williams. Heretofore it has been re-
garded as impossible to grow cotton as
far north as New Jersey, but Mr..
Williams believes there is no reason
why it should not be grown there, and
has set about to demonstrate the cor
rectness of his theory. He planted
his seed in May, and says that he has
now a fine stand of cotton in blossom
and with bottom fruit maturing.
Should there be no frost before late
September be says he will harvest a
crop of good staple.

NOTED CIRCUS MAN DYING.
Peter Sells a Minister'S Son and
Fluent Writer.

Peter Sells, one of the best known
circus men in the country, is dying as
a result of stroke of a paralysis at
his home in Baltimore. He is barely
able to recognize members of his fam
lily.
Mr.. Sells is one of the four members
of the firm owning the Adam Fore
paugh & Sells Bros. shows. He is the
youngest OF four brothers who became
famous as showmen in the United
States, Canada and Australia. Their
father, Peter Sells, Sr., was PENN
sylvania "Duichman," and divided his
time between small farming and act
ing as local preacher in the Metho-
dist Episcopal church. He went to
Cleveland, o F., early ia life, where his
family OF four sons and three daugh'
tiers were born. Their beginning was
very small, but they pros pered and
grew rapidly, and it was only a very
short time before they took rank
among the largest three or four
amusement enterprises in the country.
At one time they had accumulated so
much show property that they could
not carry il all, and they sent out a
second show called the S. H. Barrett
Show, named after their brother.in-
law.
From its first season until 1898 Peter
Sells was always the general agent OF
the show, and bad charge of the ad-
vance work. He quit work of every
kind when de discovered domestic con-
ditioDs which eliminated in a famous
divorce, in which ne obtained the de-
cree, together with a voluntary state.
ment from the court that never had
man been so viciously assaulted, and
never man came forth from such
trial with honor so untaruished and
honor so unsullied. His only child,
now grown-up daughter, has never
left his side. The shock of his discOY-
cry and the strain of the trial left him
almost physical wreck.
Sells has long held the reputation
of being perhaps the most scholarly of
all shOwmen. A fluent conversations
alist and writer upon great variety
of topics, he is a most unusual type Of
circus man.

II falls to the lot of few men to- pass
through more thrilling experiences
than are encountered by those ra'l-
readers whose place is at the throttle
of freight and passenger engines
A locomotive engineer never knows
when the unusual or the hair'raislng
will arise. His calling teaches him
that eternal vigilance is the price of
his own safety and the safety OF the
lives and property temporarily entrust-
ed to his care, aud in course OF time be
comes to look upon constant danger as
a matter of course, and faces it with
indifference.
IL is always interesting to sit among
a crowd of railroad men and hear
them relate their more exciting or
otherwise interesting experiences
Railroad employees are apt TO be good
story-tellers, whether they be engl-
peers, fremen, conductors, yard men
or car wipers, and they can entertain
an audience very effectively, no matter
what the occasion.
One of the engineers in the employ
of the Central of Georgia, whose run
ia between Albany and Macon, has re-
Gently been telling his friends OF the
most thrilling experience of his entire
railroad life. 1t occurred only snort
time ago near one of the small towns
about midway between this place and
the Central City while the engineer
who tells the story was coming south
with freight train of forty loaded
cars, drawn by one of those big lack
enaines-the kind that has four drlv-
ers on side.
just before the train reached the
small town referred TO the engineer
noticed, several hundred yards ahead
and right n the middle of the track,
what appeared TO be newspaper. Inc
man at the throttle watched 1t careful
ly for a few moments, and to him the
motion made by the white OBJECT
seemed to be such as a gentle breeze
would impart to the loose page OF
newspaper. The train bore steadily
down OF the white thing, and when
the big locomotive was n few rods
of it the engineer was hOrrlhed to dis
cover that the object which had at
tracted his attention, instead of being
a newspaper, was toddling baby boy
in a white trock.
1t was the work of few frantic Sec
onds to reverse the lever of the big
locomotive and apply the full power OF
the air brakes, but the momentum OF
the long, heavy train was not to be
speedily arrested, and the engine bore
down on the child at a distressing rate
of speed.
The engineer relates that in these
few seconds he lived an age. Groans
burst through his compressed lips and
his brain fairly reeled with the awful
prospect of the tragedy which ne
seemed powerless to avert. The train
was steadily slackening its speed, but
when the pilot finally passed over the
little form and bore it down and out OF
sight the train was still moving. The
locomotive and two freight cars passed
over the child before the wheels final

WHERE IS THE MAYFLOWER.
Pertinent Inquiry as to the Localit
of the Presidents Yacht.

Emperor William likes Mr.. Roose-
welt sincerely for his imperial ways.
He likes him for his taking care of
his own pleasures. 1t tickles his I'M
perial Majesty that Theodore Roosevelt
has a yacht, the Mayfiower, most lux
uriously appointed, which is somewhere
ensconced in Mediterranean waters.
The yacht is somewhere about the
the waters of the earth. The Govern
ment Is paying a sun for it-that is,
the people are paying the cost. So
remarkable has been the display of lux
ury aboup this American republics i'm
perial boat that it has attracted the
attention Of every enterprising news
paper man in the country, ever includ-
ing the pictorial artists. Yet a p~hotogra-
pher of the Navy Department has been
ordered to destroy all the plates and
pictures representative of the interior
of the craft. What is the fear about
this boat?. Is it not n fact that the
Administration knows that this sort of
thing is inconsistent with a republican
form of government? And is it not
a patent proposition that it is best to
conceal all that can De hidden about
this imperial boat? There is an ex-
pensiye naval and military encourage
about this Government which is con
stantly growing in extent and ex-
pense. 1t goes along with colonial ex-
pansion and all that sort of rotten
thing, which is contrary to a republican
form of government.

TEDDY IS HIMSELF AGAIN

Booted, spurred and sombreroed,
with teeth cleaning defiance and bat
tie, after an unwonted period Of silence
and quietude, Theodore Roosevelt has
promulgated Il letter of acceptance Of
the nomination for President, which is
a burning challenge TO Democrats and
other citizens who have questioned
the wisdom of his administration. He
proclaims himself infallible when even
many Of those of his own party have
openly admitted he made mistakes.
The large, respectable element of in-
dependent voters who have criticised
his acts are told to go to the devil, for
all he cares. AS for the Democrats
themselves, they have prOvocation
enough to rally to the battle of beat
ing this unsparing critic of famous
predecessors in office. They will not
forget his defamation of Jefferson,
Jackson and Polk, nor will they forget
when he was nominated for Nice-Presi-
dent his violent abuse of all Democrats
