STILL CALL FOR MORE LABOR

From many parts of the country
comes a report that there is a
shortage of hands to gather the
fruit and wheat crops. 1t is a
matter to be realty regretted that
the generous fruits of the earth
should be subject to a waste of
this nature, and economists ought
to give it more attention. In the
month of May over 100000 immi
grants landed in New York alone,
and it may well be asked, what
becomes of the more than 1,000,-
900 foreigners year who have re-
Gently been coming to the United
States. Such a vast army of Ia
borers ought to bring relief at
least to the extent of saving the
crops, which are the basis of pub
lie Well-being and prosperity.
Something seems to be out of joint
in farm labor when an emergency
of this sort recurs yearly. The
causes should be carefully sought
out. Farm labor is vital matter
especially here in the cotton fields,
and as it is one of the most health
full of pursuits, the question of
why it is avoided is urgent.

BRUNSWICK STEW.
A GastrOnOmic Triumph With a Ma
ffOnaI RanufaHSan

A GastrOnOmic Triumph With a Ma
tiOnaI Reputation.
This celebrated stew originated in
Brunswick county, Va, from which it
takes it's name-a county most famous
in antebellum days for its perfect
cuisine and astronomical predilec-
tons. The originator was either Mr..
Haskins or Mr.. Stith, each claiming
during q long life the distinction of
having made the first stew and dying
without proper adjustment of the con-
| troversy While made everywhere in
the habitable globe, it is seldom made
properly. 1t was introduced in Paris
by Judge John I. Mason of Virginia
Only in Brunswick county is this stew
so appetizing, so piquant in the season
ing to be found in all it's perfection
To this remark of the writer made to
gentleman in the far south he re-
plies, THE egotism : Of a Virginian
suggests perfection in all things there,
and the slow pace of the state ample
time to arrive at it." The recipe is as
follows: One of three kinds of meat is
used-lamb. chicken or squirrel. If
chicken, tits first parboiled, cut up as
if to fry. the outer skin removed, then
put ON In hot water-a-plenty to cover
tia large onion cut fine, a large slice
of middling meat cut fine. black and
red pepper in abundance and salt
After cooking until the bones can be
extracted, and hot water added if not
enough, corn cut off the cob and to-
matoes chopped finc are added, with
half a pound of butter, more pepper
and salt. Before serving add stale
light breadcrumbs. Never add Irish
potatoes or butter beans or any vege-
table save corn and tomatoes. Serve
In a tureen. 1t should be the consist
ency of thick soup and very highly sea
soned. 1t is considered one Of the
finest of stews and has a national
renutation. Richmond Times

The seasons have been favok'able
to the farmer and gardenef in
Georgia this year, and boun| tiful
harvests and abundant cropsI are
promised. There has been good
fruit yield, corn promises well,
and the hayfelds and meadows are
smiling, while sugarcane cotton,
peanuts, etc., are in fine condi-
ton. The refreshing rains, the
golden sunshine, the gentle dew,
the soft breezes and the balmy air
contribute to the wealth and boun-
ty of Georgia fields and meadows
and pastures and gardens. The
green woods and clear streams add
to the picture of beauty and peace
and conteDtment. There is no
fairer State than old Georgia; none
more generous in its responses,
gifts, bounties and reward; none
more varied or charming beauty;
none with a nobier history or
brighter future; none with more
worthy population or a finer type
of men and women. It's noun
tains and its plateaus, it's hills and
it's valleys, its coves and dells, it's
woods and fields and streams are
good to look upon. In its bosom
is every form of wealth nature has
to bestow. 1t is rich in farm color.
1t has abundance of beauty and
wealth. The perfume and lowell
ness of it's flowers, the variety and
melody gifts birds and the music
of it's waters add beauty to the
scene and charm to the picture.
It's men and women are the salt of
the earth. There are no bluer
skies, there is no brighter sunshine
than ours.

ARE THEY IN OR OUT?
Old Question Regarding the Philip
pines Again Up for settlement.

Albany, n. Y, June 2S.-Deputy
Attorney General Graham appeared
before Justice Fits in the supreme
court today and asked the court to de-
termine whether the Philippine islands
were a part of the United States with
in the meaning of the insurance law of
the state of New York, which makes
it compulsory for foreign insurance
companies to make a deposit with the
state superintendent of insurance of
this state for the protection of their
poHcyholders in the United States.
The question has arisen through the
effort of the Baloise Insurance COM
pany of BazIe, Switzerland to with
draw its deposit of 100000 from this
state on the ground that it has ceased
to write insurance in the continental
United States. but superintendent KEEL
sey of the state insurance department
has refused TO permit such withdrawal
as the company is still doing business
in the Philippine islands and he wishes
the state courts to determine whether
the policyholders in that country are
included in the class for whose pro-
lection the fund is deposited.
The supreme court of the United
States held that it is a foreign country
within the meaning of certain of the
United States statutes and that it is
within the United States in certain
other provisions of law, but the courts
have not passed on this question as ap-
piled to the statutes of this state.

OFFERS SO PER CENT.
Compromise Refused and German OF
Peoria Quits the Coast.

San Francisco. June 2s.-The Ex-
aminer says:
The German Insurance company,
after sounding a number of creditors
on the subject of a SO per. cent com
promise, has closed its Pacific coast
agency, resigned from the underwrit-
ers' adjusting bureau and retired to
Peoria, III.
The German of Peoria was organized
under the laws of Illinois in 1873, with
a capital of 100000. Now that the
San Francisco conhagration has come
and gone the company has a loss of
over $1,000, 900 to face, with a capital
and surplus aggregating only $560,00o.
Charles Cremer, the secretary, came
here and announced that he and his
brother, B. Cremer, the company S
president, had arranged to put up suff1-
cient money to make a settlement on a
basis of so cents on the dollar.
The compromise proposition was not a
success so Secretary Crenner left for the
east and announced the Withdrawal of
his company from the coast. The Pacific
coast agent Duncan, said yesterday:
Il am no longer Pacific coast manager

ed to close up and withdraw from the un-

other hand, Topeka likes Lewinson' s
work. The real secret is that Good
man is a better umpire than Lewfnson
in many respects. The trouble is
that some of the teams Of this league
are unused to good, clean umpiring
and need the restraint Of the constant
threat of fning. If the baseball teams
were to accept Goodman for what he
is, an umpire with a sense of justice
and judgment and not rate him along
with Lewinson and others who would
never last an hour in a better league,
there would be more ball playing and
less Of this yellow work"
