Competent, but unpretudlced.

In the course of the year Parson
Whitaker received many calls to mar
ry, christen and bury in the villages
round Candy, so it often happened that
his services were required in families
of which he knew little more than the
name of the person on whose behalf
he was to officiate.
One day he was summoned to lone
ly farm to perform the burial service.
On arriving there after some vicissi-
tudes he was met by a forlorn looking
man who was evidently in charge of
affairs.
"Are there relatives left whom
should MENTION" the minister asked,
land is there any special point Of
which 1 should speak"
"NO, there weren't any real points
about Abner Saunders" said the man
slowly. Il guess I'm an unprejudiced
| judge, and l should say there weren't.
AS for relatives, there's no one left but
an aged brother. l guess you'd better
mention him. 'Twould kind of please
him. You might say that he's always
done his best and that twas a great
privilege for the deceased to have him
near by at the last"
Certainly l will do So" said Parson
Whitaker cordially. Il suppose from
what you say the aged brother has had
more or less trouble in the past"
Hes had his trials" said the mar
briefly.
When the service was over the min
lister stepped toward his informant.

said in q low tone. "Is he in the house
He might like to have me speak to hin

lorn man, holding out limp hand.

HRARING.oN LIQUOR BILLS BEFORE HOUSE
Senator Kenney Said the Liquor Laws Strong
Arm Should Hold 1t iu Check.

DOVER, Feb. 17.-The committee on
Temperance of the House held hear
ing last night in the House Chamber
on the different liquor bills now pend
ing in the Legislature. A number OF
persons were present. Ex-senator Il.
R. Kenney delivered a lengthy address
in behalf of Kent and Sussex Counties
and declared that the strong arm OF
the law should be used to hold the
business in check. He stated that
when a man wanted liquor in his home
or club he should be allowed to have
it. The ex-senator dwelt upon the rev.
enues that the State has received from
license fees. Representative Sewer
spoke for New Castle County and
urged that the bottle law be retained.
The Rev. Alfred Smith, temperance
evangelist of the Wilmington Confer
ence, asked that he be given an entire
evening in which to reply to the liquor
arguments and the committee decided
to meet again on next Wednesday ev-
ening.

An Irish gentleman had a splendid
looking COW, but she kicked so much
that it took a very long time and it
was almost impossible to milk her, so
he sent her to fair to be sold and told
his herdsman to be sure not to sell her
without letting the buyer know her
faults. He brought home a large price
which he had got for it. His master
was surprised and said, Are you sure
you told all about herr" "Bedad, did,
sir" said the herdsman. "He asked me
whether she was a good mixer. Be

GARDENING NOTIONS.
zome Reasons For Seeds Not Coming
Up as Expected.

so,,,a Reasons For Seeds Not Coming |
Up as Expected.
When seeds do not come up satisfac- |
+orilv the gardener is apt to lay it to |
moor quality in the seed, but even good |
seed may not turn out as well as it
might through unskillful handling. At
ony rate it is worth the inexperienced
gardeners while to bear in mind GER
tain little precautions, and these are
made clear in some statements of the
causes of the failure of seeds made by
leading eastern scotsman to prospec-
tive customers:
First.-That some cultivators, through
ignorance or forgetfulness of the fact
that the products of a garden are ma
tives of various soils and climates and
require peculiar management, SOW their
seeds at an improper season. The most
tender species should not be placed in
the open ground until settled warm
weather. The half hardy are subject to
risk if sOwn when frost prevails. The
early and most hardy species and vari-
eties should not be planted until the
ground can be-brought into good condi-
ton, as some species of plants that in
an advanced state of growth will stand
a hard winter are often cut off by
very slight frost while young, especial
ly if exposed to the heat Of the sun
after a frosty night To guard against
disappointment reserve some of the
seed for a later sowing.
SecOnd.-That some species of seeds,
such as beans, beets, cabbage, lettuce,
radishes, satisfy, turnips, etc, being
from their nature, apt to vegetate
quickly, are often liable to be devoured
by insects within forty y-eight hours
after they are sOwn and before plant
is seen above ground unless a suitable
remedy is applied in time to destroy
them.
Third--That some species, such as
carrots, celery, leeks, onions, parsley,
parsnips, spinach, etc, being naturally
of tardy growth, taking Gn unfavorable
seasons) from two to four weeks to
vegetate, are apt to perish through in
crustation of the soil or other circum-
stances which cannot always be con-
trolled
Fourth.-That failures often occur
through seeds being deposited too deep
in the ground or left too near the sur
face Sometimes, for want of suff
cient seed in a given spot, solitary
plants perish, lacking strength to opeT
Ae pores of the earth, and very Otter
injudicious management in manurins
and preparing the soil will cause fail
ures.
To insure a fair chance, plant you
seeds moderately thick, and thin Ou
the surplus plants while young. II
planting seeds in drills, which is th'
most desirable plan, the size of tn,
seed and strength of its germ should b,
considered. Large seeds, producin!
vigorous roots, require deeper planting
than diminutive seeds. producing deli
cate roots and slender stalks. Tn
smallest seeds should not be coveret
more than a quarter of an inch.

Child Pension In France.

At all times it has been an object
with French parents to teach a child
to be provident and economical. A child
of three can become a member of the
Mutualite by giving only 2 cents a
week. One cent will entitle it to get
ting 10 cents a day when it is i'll, and
the other goes toward getting a pension
when it is at a certain age. No one
knows how long a child can live, but
what does the contribution amount to-
There is hardly a child in the world
who does not spend that for candy
Now, boy of eighteen giving 34 cents
a month to the society will when he is
sixty have a pension of $72 year.

MR. BRISTOW'S SUCCESSOR.
No One Chosen for Fourth Assistant
PostmsS Ster General

Postmaster General Cortelyou said today
that man for the office of fourth assistant
postmaster general had not been yet de-
cided upon. 1t appears that w. G. Edens,
who aspired to the place, has been super
seded by some one with a stronger claim
on the favors of the administration, but
who that person is has not yet been made
clear. -.e ...s-. H-.-. -. s1,i
There is a paucty of applications for the
place, presumably because the incumbent
has been already selected by the Postmaster
General from material with which he is ia
miliar through work already done for the
service or services performed for the re-
publican party. But Mr.. Cortelyou makes
assurances that the man has not been Sc
lected to fill the shoes of the recent Mr..
BriStow.
1t is understood quite broadly that Jerry
Matthew'S the secretary of the Vice Presi-
dent, has declined the office, and the de-
parture from the city today of Mr. Edens
iliclines to the inference that he is out of
the game, even though it was understood
that he had a strong lever in Senator Gull
lom. There is plenty of available material
for the office, but it is quite possible that
the material which the general public might
class as available would not meet with the
requirements according to the views of the
Postmaster General the President
Charles A. Conrard, for a long time the
chief clerk to Mr.. Brstow, is still acting
as fourth assistant, and has been perform
ing his duties in manner which has won
the appreciation of the officials of the de-
partment. But Mr.. Conrard is a practical
ly unknown quantity in national politics,
and the man who assumes the reins of
power in that Office must be man who has
made mark for himself and who has been
of use to the party. 1t is a valuable office
and must be filled by a tried laborer in the
cause of the party. few days may deter
mine the selection, and it may be a yet
more considerable time before the right
man shall have been found. 1t depends
entirely upon Postmaster General Cortel-
you and the approval of the President. and
1t may be that a dark horse will enter the
race and cross the wire ahead Of all COM

REPUBLICANS SPLIT.
Situation in Denver, Col, This Morn
ing

ing.
DENVER, Colo. March 9.-When the
general assembly met today to consider the
gubernatorial contest, the republican ma
jority apparently was hopelessly split over
the proposition to make former Governor
Peabody's fight a party measure and to
seat Peabody in place of Governor Adams.
The Peabody leaders early in the day an
nounced their intention of forcing the is
sue to final vote today. Should the re-
port Of Senator Alexander, declaring the
election Of governor to be null and void and
declaring that Lieutenant Governor McDon-
aid should succeed to that Office be voted
on first and defeated, the anti-Peabody re-
publicans will endeavor to defeat the three
other reports from the contest committee.
If this plan should succeed, a deadlock
would be created and Alya Adams would
remain as governor. 4.
When the joint session of the general as
sembly met today Representative B. j.
Connell, a democratic member of the COM
mittee appointed to investigate bribery
charges, protested against the dilatory and
secret manner in which the committee is
proceeding.
He moved that the committee be instruct
ed to pursue the investigation at once and
to hold open sessions. Senator Cornfroth,
chairman of the committee, defended the
policy of secret sessions On the ground that
in secret session members of the general
assembly would moro readily give testi-
mony regarding attempts to bribe them.
lie said he would not serve as chairman of
a committee unless hearings could be held
privately.

LIEUT.. MOHN'S CASE.
Judge Advocate General Davis Re
viewing the Records.

The record of the case of Second Lieu
tenant Albert j. Mohn, 4th Cavalry. has
been received at the War Department and
is being reviewed by Judge Advocate Cen
eral Davis prior to its submission to the
President for final action. Lieutenant
Mohn recently tried by court-mar-
tial at St. Louis on various charges result
ing from his allegations to President Roose
welt that certain officers had conspired to
force him from the army, and that it was
impossible for him to obtain justice in the
Department of the Missouri. to which he
is attached. The officer declined to make
any defense to the charges against him
because of the refusal of the court to per-
nit him to subpoena witnesses from Rome.
Italy and other distant points outside of
Missouri, unless he would state what he
expected to prove by them. Lieutenant
Mohn refused to do that. and said that
he could not have all the witnesses he
desired he would not call any of them.
The findings and sentence of the court
will not be made public until the President
has acted on the case. The court was
ordered by the President, and therefore its
report goes to him regardless of the re-
suit of tie trial. Ordinarily court-martiai
cases are not referred to the President for
action unless they involve the dismissal of
the accused.

CHARGES AGAINST KIRKMAN.
Secretary Taft Declines to Accept the
Officers Resignation.

Secretary Taft has declined to accept the
resignation of Captain George w. Kirk
man. 25th Infantry. now under trial by
court-martial at Fort Niobrara Neb., on
charges of scandalous conduct. The court
has taken a recess until May 10 to await
the arrival ofsccertain evidence from the
Philippines. Additional charges of a seri-
Gus character have been recently filed at
the department against Captain Krkman,
and these WILDE referred to the present
court for consideration in connection with
the original charges.
1t was strongly intimated. by Secretary
Taft today that Captain Krkman's mis-
deeds were OF too serious a character to
justify his escape from any punishment
whatever, as would be the result of the
acceptance of his resisnat ation, and he said
that it had therefore been decided to press
the charges against him with a view in
case of his conviction, to the infiction of
punishment commensurate with his alleged
offenses.
