Dry Land Alfalfa Thrives.

George r. Roberts has just brought
to his offices on Court street roots
of dry land alfalfa one year old
which measure 81 inches in length
with foliage about 10 inches in length
The alfalfa was planted by Mr.. Rob-
erts on the highest point on his farm
one mile northwest of the city and Is
thriving well. It will produce at least
one ton per acre and is well set. He

In q few moments he requested Mr..
Bright to hand him his violin. and he
played with little hesitation the beau

moments later he had jotted down the
notes for the different parts and the
chorus.

A NAVAL REBUKE.


Two Admzrals. Captain and q Feel
In Manila bay.
When Dewey's feet was at Manila
the late Admiral Chichester was then
q captain. On one occasion Admiral
Diedrichs, the German, sent out the
Irene on an unreyealed errand and
without the customary notification to
the commander of the blockading feet.
Admiral Dewey had suffered, he
thought, sufficiently from that sort OF
thing. and so the admiral sent vessel
across the Irene's bows and notified
her captain that she would not be per-
naitted to depart without a statement
as to her destination. 1t was not Ad-
mirnl DfedTfcfas' mission to quarrel
with both the American and the Eng
lish feets on this critical occasion. so
he seught TO find out Captain Chiches-
ter's purpose In case Of a collision. Co
ing on board Ghichester's ship, he an
griiy exclaimed. "Did you see what
Dewey did to my shipy'
YES" replied Chichester.
'sWhaf would you have done IL 1t had
been an English shsp?''
Well" said Chichester, convenient
ly assuming that the Trene,s captain
had sailed without orders from Die
drichs, I'd have put my captain in ar
rest and then I'd have gone on board
the Olympia and apologized to Admiral
Dewey for having such fool in COM
