CORRESPONDENCE
Evansville

Over in the town of Dunkirk when
newly married couples get home they
are charivaried with charges of dyna-
mite and other like pleasantries. Re-
suit destruction to considerable property
and SCATTERING of nerves.
Malcolm, the fifteen months old child
of Mr. and Mrs w } Clark, passed away
Thursday evening last after brief i'll
ness of only two days. The child was
taken i'll the day preceding it's death,
and all that could be done for recovery
was unavailing. The death being so
sudden was terrible blow to the par
ents and relatives.
Charles Connie passed quietly away
Friday afternoon, in his 10th year. For
over thirty years Mr. Connie has made
Evansville his home. Coming with his
wife from Sparta. he has identified him
self with the upbuilding of the city ever
since. About ten years ago his wife was
buried in Maple Hill cemetery, and since
her death he has made his home with
Ellis A Robinson and family.
CHLee has returned from his Texas
visit and has about concluded to spend
the greater portion of the winter there,
owing to the severity of the weather in
Wisconsin. While there recently he
states that he had green vegetables, and
that he picked them in the garden him
self so as to vouch for the reliability of
the vegetable.
A red fox is on exhibition at the meat
market of Cannon & Lee which was
caught by Willis Griffith the first of the
week on the Griffith farm near this city.
The fox was only about two-thirds grown
and possessed all the hereditary traits of
its species in the killing of sheep. The
animal is now dead but there are more
of it's kind who are lovers of mutton.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all it's stages, and that is
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure known to the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being constitutional
disease. requires constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surface of the system, there
by destroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assist
ing nature in doing its work. The pro-
prletors have so much faith in it's .cura-
tive powers, that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to cure.

A Quaint Oath.

The judicial oath in the Isle of Man

1t runs thus: by this book and the
holy contents thereof and by the Won

lousy wrought in heaven above and
in the earth beneath in six days and
seven nights / do swear that I will,
without respect of favor or friendship,
love or gain, consanguinity or affinity.

The Aleutfan Islands.

Until the time of Peter the Great the
Aleutian islands were unknown. The
famous Russian monarch, consumed
with curiosity as to the distance be
tween Asia and America, started, i1
1875, the first of the expeditions thai
at last revealed those haunts of the
bear, the beaver, the ermine and the
seal But Captain Cook told more
about the islands than did all the Rus
sian explorers before him.

If one sets ones heart on the ex-

his time seeking a short cut to these
things. There is no short cut Fol
anything worth having one must pay
the price, and the price is always work

His Name.

An unpopular man who was refused
membership in a certain aristocratic
club had the audacity to write to the
club secretary demanding the name of
the man who blackballed him. The sec
rotary could not resist the chance of
sending the following reply: '.Sir,
have received your letter demanding
the name OF the man who blackballed
you. His name is Legion"

worked early in the spring, and
the fertilizers can be applied
when making up the hill, If they
are made up two or three weeks
before the plants are set. During
the preparation Of the ridge, if
that is the system followed. the
fertilizers may be distributed and
well mixed with the soil. Some
times when the soils contain more
clay and humus, the mineral ele.
ments can be applied broadcast

Fertilizing Sweet Potatoes.
Cultivator.

Sou thern Cultivator.
The first thing to consider in
the growing of the sweet potato
is it's quality. 1t is even more
important with this crop than
with the white or Irish potato.
Uniformity IN size and appear
ance when placed on the market
are also entitled to attention.
The potato that brings the best
price in the different markets is
relatively small, and in shape
round, rather than oblong. When
cooked 1T should be dry and
mesly, and of good, rich taste.
Many-yes, all Of these require
ments can be secured if care is
exercised in selection of soils and
plant food, since the characteris-
tics of the crop are influenced
both by the character of the soil
and of the manure and fertilizers
applied.
