place.
The program was pleasantly varied
by the boys glee club, which sang

the audience delightfully."- while the
iudpes were rendering their decision,
by a vocal solo.

EeIIs Spoke First.
The first speaker was w. Z. Eels'
."The Curse of Africa" was the sub1ect
of his Grafton. In an enthusiastic
manner he portrayed the horrors OF
the system of slavery now existing
in central Africa under the control OF
King Leopold of Belgium and ex-
borted Americans to step in and put
an end to such a state of affairs.
In a sweet and earnest manner Miss
Nav Worthington told of the life
of Francis E. Willard under the title
1.-The White Ribbon Queen"
The next speaker was Walter T.
Penthouse, who gave a talk on the
solution of the negro problem, putting
aside as impracticable the deporta-
ton of the colored man, as impossi-
BILE his amalgamation and holding ul
industrial education as the only way
out of the difficulty.
1.-Two Significant Reforms was the
title of an Grafton by r. V. Perringer
which came next. Perringer showed
the parallelism of the evils of slav-
cry and the liquor question and plead
for the rise of such a leader as
Wendell Phillips to sting the con-
science of the nation on the modern
question.
i Cox Good Speaker.
Howard Cox was one Of the easiest
and most winning speakers of the eve
ming. Unsuccessful emf en- en- cmfW
was the topic upon which he drew
lessons from the life and martyrdom OF
the Florentine Monk Savanorola.
"a patriot of Athens" was the next

which had ruled the intellectual world
and held up to admiration the pa

DEG |.

The divorce case of Ida a. Law
son against Lewis g. Lawson was de-
eided at Morgantown Friday morn
ing and the. final decree handed
down by Judge John ". Mason, in
fayortof Mrs. Lawson.
The case assumed considerable
notoriety, because of the fact that.
there was a race between Texas and
West Virginia courts in the matter.
lawson obtained a divorce IN Texas,
fraudulently,s It is alleged, and the
wife had it set aside on these
grounds. She then instituted a.
suit at 1Iorgantown, where she re-
sides. and about the same time he
also brought suit in Texas Attor-
neys appeared before Judge Mason
in his behalf to make it appear that
the Texas suit had priority, but
Judge Mason overruled them and
set time the early part of the
present month for heariAg of Mrs
Iawson's suit beforeghim.
Resulting from that hearing
Judge Mason Friday morning
granted her a divorce, and alimony
amounting to about $4,000. The
full text of the decree has not been
learned. but sufficient is known to
the statement that it was a
legal victory for her attorneys.
The Lawson's formerly resided
here and Mr.. Lawson was well
known and successful attorney at
the time. He now resides in Texas.

"I am greatly impressed with the

Improvement are to be seen in all
sections of the city and they are OF
a permanent character. 1t is not
surprising, however, as Asheville and
this surrounding section of attrac-
tive country have everything to make
residence here most desirable. The
character of the mountain lands
suggest great possibilities in stock
raising, and it will not be long be-
fore breeders will locate here to
push their industry. The blue rib

Plant Fruit Trees I'm Chicken Runs.
Fruit trees make the very best
kind of shade trees for the chicken
runs. l know the fowls are very
fond of ripe fruit, and that they will
eat or destroy all that falls or that
they can reach. But if they get it
all, you are no worse off than if you
put another kind of shade tree that
bore no fruit. The fruit is good for
them, and more insects come about
fruit trees than about other trees,
and all the fruit you do get from the
trees is usually very good, the result
of continued cultivation by, the hens
Any kind of fruit trees will do, but
peach and plums are best, because
they do not grow so tall, and can
be trimmed close to the ground,
making good shade and not taxing
so much room. Nor are they so
likely to be blown down by storm
upon your houses or fences. Plant
some flower seed in every corner,
and around your yard fences out
side; they are good for shade, and
the shade and the seed are both of
benefit.
Soft-Sheued Eggs and Summer Care of
Poultry.
The laying of soft-shelled eggs
sometimes results from overfeed-
ing, sometimes from deficiency of
shell-maturing material The nee
essary lime may be supplied in sew
eral ways. Crushed oyster shells or
bone meal can generally be had !;
in their absence keep a supply of old
mortar where the hens may help
themselves. The egg-eating habit is
often formed by a hens finding a
soft-shelled egg, and very soon the
hardest shelled one is none too hard
for her to break. 1t is we'll there
fore to have plenty of shell-forming
material where the hens can have
free access to it.
Sick chickens generally mean dead
chickens. So watch out these hot
days, and see that everything is kept
clean about the chicken runs. Scat
ter air-slacked lime all about the
runs and houses. Use the white
wash brush early and often. Give
fresh water three times a day al
least. Watch for storms and drive
the young chickens to shelter on the
approach of rain. Grease the chicks
twice a month at least with carbolat-
ed vaseline, and dust the old hen as
often, for if you don't, you will have
no pin money from the sale of fry
ers to spend when the President Wis,
its the State Fair in October.

lv been asked by IAOSe lnGeresIeu III
r,,ro bred poultry, "What was the
b;gbest price ever paid for single
snecimen or collection~
pecord-Breaking Poultry Prices.
Until a year ago $500 was the
biohest price for a single bird, but
Since that time there has been a
record-breaking sale made by the
leading breeder of rose-comb Black
Vinorcas; a New York man, who sold
nineteen Black Minorcas for $3,400.
The sale includes the highest price
ever paid for a single cock; s., 900; ;
the highest price ever paid for q
breeding pen, $1,000; and the high
est price ever paid for a single hen,
5000. These birds were bought by a
Mr.. Won Schultzenstein of Germany,
and we're shipped to Berlin, March
"A. 1904, for use, I believe, by the
German government. After the
birds were shipped Mr.. Won Schult-
zenstein came to this country, and
stayed three weeks with the breeder
in vain effort to get him to part
with some more of his black beau
ties, but as the breeder was selling
eggs for Matching at $40 per set
ting of thirteen, and had orders one
year ahead. he refused to sell.
While, of course, We cannot all do
this well, and some of us don't ex-
pect it, yet the sale shows the posi-
bilities of the business. We all
have an equal chance with this
breeder. He had to start and work
up his birds and business like the
rest of us. At New York, Chicago
and Boston poultry shows during
the winter each year, sales are made
of single birds for breeding purposes
at from $50 to $500, and "no ques-
tions asked" To be a fancier on
the top roost one must have the
grit, and nocket-book also, to expect
to win at such places as Boston, Chi
cago and New York.
Opportunities for Southern Poultrymen.
The fanciers of the South have
Just as good birds, and there are
some among our farmers as well
which if "spruced up" and taken to
these shows, would put some of the
city lot fanciers in the shade. Time
will soon come when the South, as
she has done in other lines, will make
herself felt in the poultry world of
the North and West. We have the
right stripe" here; all they lack is
the confidence in themselves to go
forth and conquer. Join your near
est poultry association-or better
still, the State show. Write Mr.. j.
5. Jefreys. A. 81 M. College, Ra-
leigh, n. c., and let him put "you
wise" on the subject. Then after
you have exhibited your stock at
home, send to the Hagerstown, Md,
show. And from that to New York
and Boston is only fguratively a
step, and when you win at these
shows the battle for the top rung
OF the ladder is within your grasp
Il you know how to profit by it.
Eternal Vigilance the Price of Success.
But don't let it turn your head
and think because you have won
once, you can do it again. The 9th
ef fellow Is Just as sharp as you are.
and will profit by what he has learn
