DESTROY HIS TO.
BACCO PLANTS.

Hopkinsville, Ky, May 23-The
plant bed OF L. L. Lesvill, near Penn
broke, the most pertinent man in
Christian county who does not hold
mem bership in the Tobacco Assertion,
were last night scraped of and des-
royed by parties who went to the beds
in two rubber-tired buggies. About
45O yards were destroyed enough to
plant twenty to twenty-five acres of
tobacco About half of these beds
were destroyed. the others being in
another field NJ. Lesvill has offered
$500 reward for the apprehension Of the
guilty parties, and E. q. Armstrong,
OF this city, has gone with blood
hounds to track those who did it..
This Is the first instance of lawlessness
reported IN this county growing out
the TOBACCO question.

Vegetable Renuets.

Those who would like to make cheese
on a very small scale are often trou-
bled to get proper rennet to produce
coagulation Of the milk. A scientist
says that If the leaves of the common
butterwort are placed in strainer and
the milk fresh from the COW is poured
over it the milk will soon become thick
and has a most delicious flavor. The
yellow bedstraw also possesses the
properties of curdling milk, and the
natives of Cheshire prefer it as a rem
net to all other sorts. The leaves and
flowers are put in the strainer, and the
milk is slowly poured over them. The
flower heads of the garden artichoke
also possess the property of coagulat-
ing milk. In view of the carelessness
sometimes noted in people who prepare
rennet in the ordinary fashion this
vegetable rennet Is worthy Of atten-
ton. The leaves, properly cleaned and
prepared, would be very much safer
and more hygienic than animal sub
stances which may go through chem
lcal changes that unfit them for food.
The Breckenridge news., 1906-05-30
where Christianity Began.

The hills of Bethlehem are full Of
hves, natural and artificial, and
many of them have historic signifi-
cance. There Is the milk grotto. In
which Joseph and Mary are said to
have concealed themselves before their
fight into Egypt to escape the evil de-
signs Of Herod. The snowy whiteness
of the soft chalk out of which 1t Is
hewn is ascribed to the spilling Of a
few drops of the Virgins milk when she
nursed the infant Jesus. Another grot-
to is pointed out as that in which st.

Herodotus makes Solon tell Croesus
Of several men happier than he. Two
brothers, Cleobis and Biton Of Argos,
he said, when oxen were lacking to
draw their mother, the priestess Of
Hera, to the temple several miles dis
tant, harnessed themselves to the cart.
When the mother, proud of her sons
and moved by the plaudits Of the
crowd, had prayed to Hera that her
sons might receive the best gifts the
gods had to bestow, they lay down in
the shade of the temple and never
walked. Herodotus says that their
statues were sent to Delphi. Homolle
found at Delphi two statues practically
Identical, of finest archaic work, made
early in the sixth century B. G. Since
one of them bore the signature of an
Arglve sculptor, Polymedes, in archaic
letters, we may believe that the story
of Herodotus is based on fact and that
we have before US today the identical
statues.-Chautauquan.
