Oven Canning.

A simple way of putting up fruit is
the oven canning Cover the bottom
of the oven with sheet of thick as
bestos. or set in it dripping pan
with little warm water and a cloth
on the bottom to set the jars on; fill
sterilized jars with fruit, packing COM
pactly and covering with the syrup;
do not have the rubbers on the cans,
not yet the regular can tops; a tin lid
may be put on temporarily If desired;
the heat of the oven should be moder-
ate; cook about ten minutes, remove
boiling syrup to make full, put on
rubbers and tops and seal.
Pineapples may be canned in their
own juices without cooking; cut in
small slices, measure and allow
pound of sugar to pound of fruit;
place in layers in a stone crock, and
leave over night, in the morning trans
fer to glass jars and fill the jars to
the top with the juice drawn over
night; dip the rubbers in warm water
before adjusting, and have the tops
of the jars sterilized; cover and seal
air tight; keep in a dark place; a
dessertspoonful of brandy added to
each quart jar before sealing give a
delicious flavor, and adds to the GER
tainty of the fruits keeping we'll.

H. H. REYNOLDS.

Mr.. Reynolds is too well known
in this community where he was
born, reared and married for his
many good traits Of character
and his business success and cap
acity. for US to attempt to say
anything that would promote his
interest along that line.
However, we will say that it is
most gratifying to us all to OBJ
serve one in d community who,
from his bovhood. has made many
step towards enterprise and pro-
gress. he has every interest of
our enterprising and progressive
city at heart aud could in every
respect be fully entrusted to his
keeping,
For one of his years he has
had large experience in business
affairs and proved success, such
men as people do not doubt and
hesitate about.
We will further mention that
Mr.. H. H. Reynolds is a candi-
date for Alderman at Large and
you will find his name duly an
uounced in the columns of the
News this week.
We are of the opinion, most
clearly, that if elected, he will
make a safe official in every re-
spect and no regrets to be enter
tanned from any reason.
He asks that you consider his
candidacy and for your votes, if
consistent, promising to serve
you and all interests faithfully to
the very best of his ability. and
takes occasion to thank one and
all in advance for considerations
There can be nothing fairer OF
more reasonable than this decla-
ration.

If we secure the proper seasons
more corn will be made than for

Dear Sir: How did you get

we got ours. You sell shoes. We

had, he's gone ID forgotten.
We should have been gone and
forgotten, if we hadn't made good
paint and friends.
You buy your shoes; you have
an advantage in that; if you make
mistake. you can stop it quick;
if you make hit, you can push
it quick. We've had to go slow;
it's hard to pick-out ones own
mistakes, and nothing but fun to
correct the mistakes of others.
You know waere TO go for lea

ones customers comfortable.

''unwritten law to save him from the
just consequences of his rash act. 1t
is cowardly. a ghoulish performance
to thus seek to blacken the fair fame of
man whom the red hand of murder
has put beyond the power Of speaking
for himself. and it powerfully illus
trates the unchivalrous qualities of the
''unwritten law
Inc whole code is work of the Dark
Ages, disgrace to Southern society,
and reflection upon the courts If that
section. The offence of Judge Favrot
is a peculiarly dastard!y one, corning
as 1t does from a judge upon the bench,
VINO OF all men should have been the
last to have discredited the courts of
his state, and to have violated the laws
he was sworn to uphold. The very
fact that he occupied such a position.
and carried such responsibilities should
mitigate against rather than fo: him
at the trial. The law-and above all
that which protects human life-should
never, under any circumstances, be a
respecter CT persons. Before TIE tri-
bunal of justice every citizen should
stand upon an absolute equality
We presume that Judge Fav-
rot will never be punished for
this brutal murder. The chances
are that he will be tried and triumph
antly acquitted. But what about the
woman he has made a widow and the
children he has orphaned? What sym
pathy will be shown them in their ter
rible bereavement? Now that the shell
ter of the "unwrtten law" has been in
voked for the assassin, we imagine that
outside of the family and immediate
relatives and friends their great sor-
row will receive soant attention. Even
so strong a paper as the Picayune
in it's editorial on THE Unwritten Law
does not hesitate to indulge in a very
thinly yelled defense of Judge Favrot's
crime. 1t says in conclusion that:
While regarding as most deplOrable any
conditions that can call for such v:o-
lence, it is difficult not to sympathiZe
with the inmates Of a broken household
and a ruined home"
If Judge Favrot had committed this
deliberate open and premeditated
crime in any Northern state, outside
Of Maine and Kansas, where capital
punishment is not in vogue. there is
little doubt but what he would be tried
convicted, and executed. but there is
small chance of any such justice pre-
vaIling in the state of Louisiana. As
we have said. he will probably go out
Of the courthouse amid the plaudits of
the people, and it would not be sur
prising if, with the mark of Cain upon
his forehead, he were permitted to re-
sumo his place upon the bench.
