small private garden established here
by the director of gunpowder fac
tory. \ few years later it was formal
ly attached to the royal museum and
the burden of its support transferred to
the national treasury. No wonder Bra
zllians are so proud of their ''Jardin

days may be in town and the streets
and fever breeding cutters steam and

DEMOCRATS AND PENSIONS,

The Democratic Constitution Club of
New York City, composed largely of
lawyers who are personal friends of
Parker, have issued in pamphlet form
an attack on President Roosevelt for
his pension order of March last, declar-
ing that order Unconstitutional, law
less and most reprehensible." Yet on
the day that order was published, March
IS, 1904, ex-President Cleveland I'M
equivocally approved of it, as the sub
Joined item in the newspapers of the
following day attests:
Princeton, n. j., March IS. This
was eX-President Grover Cleveland's
sixty. seventh birthday. When he was
asked tonight for his opinion on the
recent pension regulations he said:
81 have noticed that the commission
ers have merely construed the law so as
to make the change. SO far as l can
see, the change is in keeping with the
law
That is final evidence that Mr.. Cleve-
land did not think President Roose-
velt's act different in principal from
his similar act in 1898, when he issued
an order placing the age of physical
disability at seventy-fve. 1t follows
then that Roosevelt's act was no more
| Unconstitutional or ''lawless" than
, Clevelands was. OF course it is of far
more value to the veterans of the war,
and for this reason the Democrats OBJ
ject to it. The Parker newspapers in
New York city, including the Times
and the Evening Post" go to Con.
gresham John Sharp Williams of Mis-
sissippi for arguments against the
place for them to 60 for ammunition if
they wish to attack Union soldiers.
Like every other Southern statesman,
Williams is against pensions for the
men who put down the rebellion.-Wa-

PARKER ON PENSIONS.

AS foreseen, the passage in Judge
Parker's letter of acceptance which at
tracts the most attention is the one in
relation to the age pension order.
Some of the Democratic papers glide
over this with few general remarks
as a courageous acceptance of the
Presidents challenge, but none of them
seem quite ready to accept and praise
the proposed policy. Several of the
prominent Parker journals in fact ex=
press dissent. eve are bound to say"
is the comment of the New York Post,
shat we do not like such an approach
to the promise of a service pension"
The Springfield Republican says Judge
Parker's words commit him to a service
pension, but cit may be doubted
whether this will win over many
soldier votes where bird in hand will
be regarded as better than one in the
bush." That seems to amount to the
acceptance of the idea that it was a
bid for the soldier vote.
On the other hand the New York
Tribune pronounces the passage "as-
founding and Indecent" 1t says
that latter insinuating that the Presi-
dents pension order, with its trifling
addition to the pension expenditures,
was Old Tor votes, ana promising II
elected to revoke it, Judge Parker pro
ceeds to make higher bid. What will
be said of it," the Tribune asks, "by
Judge Parker's friends who have long
been complaining of excessive pension
expenditures" What is said by some
Of them we have seen, but others make
wry face and say nothing. The New
York Sun puts its comment in the in
terrogative form and asks whether it
is ''solicitude for the maintenance in
violate of the constitutional bounda-
ries, or merely an ordinary attempt to
outbid for the so-called veteran vote"
The bid idea appears to prevail.-Bos-
ton Journal.

the two forming gigantic cross. About
midway down the avenue is fountain,
and here other avenues, scarcely less
splendid, branch off at right angles,
lined on both sides by old mango trees
(Manguevias), whose long arms, gnarled
trunks and dense, interlocking foliage
would alone distinguish this garden
above any other. But after the avenue
of palms everything else appears tame
and one is hardly prepared to do justice
to what is probably the finest collection
of tropical flora in the world. There are
groves of cinnamon and Glove trees,
acres of tea shrubs from China and
Japan, myrtle trees and naples, pines
and camphor trees, cocoa, bread-fruit,

fruit of the jaca that looks like the
stuffed club of the theater, and rare
exotics from the tiniest parasite to the
loftiest monarchs of the Amazonian
forests. Many trees from tropical Asia
and Africa, as well as from other parts
Of the world, have found a home in
Brazil through the fundamentally of
this wonderful garden. To the left of
the royal palms is magnificent grove
of bamboos, which is a favorite resort
for picnic parties. There are ponds and
pools, grottoes, cascades and hundred
winding paths leading to new surprises.
The garden lies near the sea shore, di-
rectly at the base of spur of the Sierra
da Carioca, and forms part of an expert

LEWIS c. ATWOOD.
A Winterport Man Who is Very Much in
Business in EastpOrt.

A Winterport Man Who is Very Much in
Business in EastpOrt.
Lewis C. Atwood, whose career as
the manager of the Quoddy Hotel at
PASSPORT was cut short by the fire which
destroyed the house last week, was
born in Winterport, a son of Lewis At
wood, the famous garden seed dealer,
and nephew of Hon. Fred Atwood OF
WinterpOrt, a former member of the
governors council and we'll known
throughout the State. Mr.. Atwood
went TO EastpOrt fifteen years ago and
engaged in the harness business for six
years, when he bought out the large
meat market of Corthell 4 Gardner on
Water street, which business he has
since conducted. He has a wholesale
and retail fish market in connection
with his meat and provision business
and employs seven in his large store.
Two years ago Mr.. Atwood bought
Treats island, about a mile south of
Passport, containing 80 acres, four of
which were planted with potatoes this
season. On Treats island he has
number Of sheep and cows, and besides
securing supply of cream, milk, ETC.,
has a fish curing stand there. Last
year he bought a large farm in the
western part of Eastport containing IS
acres, where he has % COWS and gives
considerable attention to the milk and
cream trade about the city. A modern
tie-up was recently constructed at the
farm, having concrete floors and a san
itary supply of milk and cream is de-
livered about the city by teams.
At the farm, which has an excellent
shore privilege, smoked herring and
drV fish are also nrana rod for ShiDmant
and the ice supply for his fish and meat
markets is also kept near.
Last month Mr.. Atwood bought a
milk and cream route and has large
list OF daily customers. He has been
very successful in all his business deal
lngs and with his meat, fish, provisions,
etc., necessary for hotel planned to
make success of the Quoddy, and
many will regret his stroke OF bad luck.

News Notes from Alamance County.
Editors Progressive Farmer


Since Thanksgiving this has been the most
uniformly cold winter since the years 1892, and
that was said to have been the coldest winter
since the Revolutionary War I heard my par
ents say that my grandparents in going to church
crossed Back Creek and Haw River on the ice
and the people rode their horses across the river
on the rice. AS yet, have had but little
snow.
Wheat and oats are faring badly; much of it
yet has not appeared above the ground. Labor is
very scarce and high priced. Industrious white
people either own their farms or have gone to the
cotton mills and wood factories, to the steel
bridge works at Burlington. No reason
ably blame them.
Very little interest in growing another tobacco
crop is yet manifested While the weather is
fine for burning plant BEDS do not know of one
being burned. Small pox is very prevelant about
the cotton mills and there probably more than
hundred cases in the county. Dr. Faucet who
so successfully stamped out the disease in this
county two years ago, appointed by the county
commissioners to vaccinate all of the people in the
infected districts that had not been vaccinated
while in the discharge of his duty at Haw River,
was assaulted and seriously injured. Otherwise,
the health of our county is very good.
Very respectfully,

Greensboro, n. O., JAN 21.-At four o'clock this
morning fire destroyed the four-story main brick
dormitory, kitchen, laundry and boiler buildings
at the State Normal College. The dormitory
occupied by three hundred young lady students,
but the alarm given in time for all of them
to get out uninjured, though there several
narrow escapes.
The fire discovered by the night watchman.
Mr.. Eugene Osborne, who saw the roof of the
kitchen in flames. With wonderful presence Of
mind, in that he placed a greater value on human
life than the buildings he rushed into the dormi-
tory and chasing up and down the halls on all the
four foors he walked up the sleeping students be-
fore giving the outside general alarm.
The fire alarm given exactly at four o'clock
and the volunteer fremen responded with their
usual promptness, but they handicapped
account of the fact that four-inch main out
in that section of the city and only small
stream of water could be kept the flames. The
fire spread so rapidly that only small quantity
of furniture was saved from the dormtory.
1t is estimated that the destruction of property
will aggregate $8O,OOO with insurance for prob
ably one-third of that amount. The insurance on
the entire college plant amounts to more than
100000.

Editor Progressive Farmer:
The Wilson County Alliance was held at Lu-
CANA, N. c., January 18th. A good many mem
bers attended the meetings. Nine Sub Alliances
were represented in the county meeting. Our AL
lance is progressing rapidly every day in this
county. The increase of members is hun
dred per cent for the last past year in this county
We had one of the best county meetings I ever
witnessed 1t enjoyed very much by every
one. Plenty of something good to eat; the frag
ments were gathered up and there were several
baskets full.
The time is at hand when something must be
done, brother farmers; it is high time to be up
and hustling. All classes of people have organized
except the farmers. 1t seems that most of the
people are pulling at the farmer; even farmers are
pulling at each other But glad to say the
farmers are coming together now, and they are
saying to each other: "Stick up thou good and
faithful servant, for we have been rulers over
something. We, the whole, will make thee rulers
over many things. Enter ye in Alliance and
be initiated in the name of a good Farmers All-
ance."
Brother farmers, it is time to begin thinking
about guano. Prices have advanced this year on
guano 1t seems to me that when we sell anything
for a good price, the next thing we hear of is
that the spectators have put on a little more
profit on their goods. We should quite planting
80 much money crops and plant corn, raise a
plenty of hogs, and feed to feed them with, SO we
wouldn't have to buy meat and corn. Just plant
little money crop. 1t wouldn't be long before
you would see the merchants riding over the coun-
try asking you if you didn't have so and so to
sell.
Yours fraternally,
