What the Digger Thinks About
 Strawberries.

am not q strawberry grower, but l am interested in the grow ing of strawberries as much a> any body Tor l make more money during the picking season than any other family l know of l have been Investigating the way they have been grown and the way they have been handled and disposed of for the last four years and l have recognized some weak points in the growing and dis posing of them. So l will pro- eeed to tell the readers of The News where 1 think an improve ment could, and l think should, be made both in producing and disposing of them. In tile first place each grower should not at tempt to grow more than he can give the very best cultivation, and always mulch the middles either with straw or corn stalks late in the fall. Plant only such varieties as will be In demand on the market. Never plant more than two varieties together and then only such varieties as ripen at the same time. Never plant an early and late variety together because the pickers will pick enough soft carly ones to injure the sale of the late ones. Then it makes bad picking all the sea- son, and the late ones are more or less injured before they begin to ripen. Ii yon want lady Thompson and Crescent berries they will do to plant together. So will Klondike and late Aroma. Be sure to get them on broad bed with clean middles well mulched with straw or corn stalks, then you may expect good crop of fine berries that.will bring fancy prices.

tory, in the early part of The Key to the Twentieth Century is thoughtful, cleau-cut and a brilliant bit ot oratory. The same is equally true of his delin- cation of the critical periods of history. which follows. Indeed these two themes which form the introduction 10 the lecture, are not only the most brilliant. but Dr Green gives them as much time as the lecture itself. After this oratorical introduction, the speaker, when l heard him, gave an interesting but brief review of the importance of America in the world Of history, and spent most of the remaining time telling of physical greatness of America. :
 ''On the whole, Dr. Green has much to commend him and little to diseredit him with any audi ence that wants lecture that k quite worth while. For here is man who wins with his flow of eloqueuee, his comprehensive grasp of important questions. and his charming manner. He stands for the best in the Lyeeum. and 1t is to be hoped that he will continue to give all his time to the platform.

Dr. Thomas E Green, the minister and lecturer on subjects of the day, was born in Harris vile Pa, in 1857. 4 graduate of Mckendree College in 1875, he pursued post graduate work at Princeton, graduating from tie Theological Seminary there i'll 1878. He was pastor of churches in Mt.

From there lie was removed to Cedar Rapids, where he remained for fifteen years. Then feeling himself called to still larger field of activity, he went upon the lyeeum platform with one of the biggest guarantees ever of fered to any lecturer.

Committed Suicide.

Wednesday the remains of E. r. Walker were taken from the river near Combs. MT. Walker was 52 years old and has been mentally unbalanced for more than three months. His home is near Cinelnnatti, this county. He has a wife and d l6 year old daughter. His wife and daugh- ter sent him to his brothers home, at Montague, Texas, sey- eral weeks ago, thinking that If he could be with his brother whom he had not seen for 2S years he would get better, but he grew worse. The brother thinking that if he would bring him back and take him to their old child hood home near Thompson his mind would get normal. The two brothers went 10 Thompson and Thursday, May 10, when MT. Walker awakened he found that his brother was gone. For SIX days the country was search ed but the remains of the unfort- unate man were not found until Wednesday, liking one day of being week since he disappear ed. The poor demented man fas- tened fifteen pound rock to his neck with a twine string and jumped into the river. All his belongings were found except a purse which contained five dol lars. The remains were so de- composed that they were buried at once near Combs. NIT. J. H. Walker left this morning for his home in Texas. Fayetteville Sentinel.

Dr. Thomas E. Green.

Talent" " a magazine of the Lyeeum, recently printed the fol- towing criticism of the work of Dr. Thomas E. Green, lecturer on ,.Left-handed Men, Civic Baeterlologya anG other timely subjects:
 1t may be doubted whether in the history of the Lyceum there has been a lecturer who came so quickly to be ranked as one of our best platform men as Thomas E. Green. Almost the first the Lyceum world heard of Dr. Green was the announcement that the Redpath Bureau had given M nptract that guar anteel lres a year. Then as uncloN1lenus says, De neX' news yo' know everybody was talking about Dr. Greens lect- ures. He had a number of Chau- tauqua engagements in the sum- naer of 1902, and at all the assem- plies madea favorable impression. I notice from the programs print ed in the Lyceum journals that are often recalled-a good 1ndl- cation that he is able to do what the bureau promised.
 There is no mistaking the fact that Dr. Green makes favorable impression. His appearance ant manner are pleasing. He has a striking personality, which IS heightened by the clerical garb he wears. He looks and acts like polished gentleman, an ap pearanee too rare on the lecture platform. And then Dr. Greer has the oratorical temperament.
 s.He uses few stories to hold his audience; this result IS achieved by the beauty of his language, the force of his discussion and the charm of his personality. His delivery is dramatic, polished and pleasing. His voice is rich, we'll modulated and sympathetic. doubt if there is on the plat form man who brings to his work more of the qualities which make a pleasing and successful lecturer.

A Great Grafton.

Dr. Thomas E. Green, was once asked what he considered the most remarkable piece of or atory to which he ever listened He said:
 In regard to far-reaching ef- fects, W. ]. Bryan's Cross of Gold speech in the national Dem ocratic Convention of 1890 was the most remarkable speech 1 have ever heard. l was chap lain of that convention and sat within a few feet of Mr. Bryan during its delivery. It was q wonderful effort-ehanged the front of the Democratic party, and made Mr. Bryan its candi- date for President that year.
 But l think the most wonder fu1 bit of oratory in itself, that
  ever heard was was given in the National Democratic Convention of 1S92, of which l was also chaplain. Grover Cleveland was to be nominated. and William C. Whitney. chairman of National Democratic Committee, knew just where the 61715 votes were coming from.
 New York State was opposing Mr. Cleveland, and led by Gov. Flower, Gen. Sickles and men of that sort, presented a formidable front. We'll, at 200 in the morn ing after a continuous session since 500 p. m., the time came for nomination of President. The delegates and the vast crowd were ready. So was MT. Whit nev. New York tried to secure an adjournment. They were shouted down. Then Bourke Cochran got the chairman's eye, and rose in his place to plead for delay. He said he had some things to say for New York-the mother of Democracy.
 But the convention would not tolerate delay, and so Cochran came to the platform to make a plea against Grover Cleveland. Facing 10000 people, practically all hostile to him, i'll five minutes he had them listening, in ten minutes be had them cheering, for forty minutes he mastered the crowd absolutely, andit seemed a> If Cleveland'S doom was sealed. When he finished he was given an ovation; then the machine sci its wheels in motion; the orator was ground between them, and just as daylight broke Grover Cleveland received o17K votes and was nominated for President of the United States.
