ANOTHER BLOW AT ANANIAs.
A Plan to Produce Strawberries and
Cream from Same Plant.

Cream from Same Plant.
A MOrristown, n. j., dispatch to the
New York Tribune says; The cold
weather of yesterday morning found
it's way into Alonzo Murphy's kitchen
at Mount Freedom and killed spec
linen of the vegetable kingdom that
for months had been the pride of Mr..
Murphy's heart and with which he ex-
pected to revOlutiOnize dairying and
strawberry culture.
1t has long been cherished idea of
Mr.. Murphy that by judiciOus cross
ing Of the milkweed and strawberry it
would be possible to produce straw
berries and cream from the same
plant. Last fall he grated several
strawberry plants on plants OF the
milkweed. One grew sturdily close by
Mr.. Murphy's kitchen range and was IN
full fruitage when it succumbed to the
cold that entered the room when the
fire in the range by accident went out.
That the experiment was entirely
successful is shown by the fact that
each strawberry when examined was
found to contain a quantity OF cream,
varying from a few drops to a tea
spoonful, depending on the size OF the
berry. Mr.. Murphy is not discour-
aged by his iii luck, and promises to
repeat the experiment next summer.

best thing of the kind ever seen

ways been conservative in giving
sanction to performances of this
kind, but we wish TO urge the
many Journal readers residing in

will be worth their while to see

"There r some things in
whose moral character the public
naturally has a right to be inter-
ested. Prominent among these
stands the travelling amusement
organizations. There is every
chance in the world for a bad
show to do moral injury to the
people who patronize it. Peo-
pie have a right, therefore, TO
insist on knowing the moral color
of a show before they partake of
its entertainment.
ut is c pretty well established
fact that people must have a GER
tain amount Of amusement.
There is a place, therefore a
large and legitimate for
an amusement enterprise which
insists upon clean attractions and
which tolerates nothing Of un-
questionable character. When

1t is conceded generally by
those conversant with the career

organization of the kind has ever
received at the hands of the press
and public. Without exception,
every city visited has been pro-
fuse in the expression of its APP
proval and support.

such support when once people
realize its true character.

the Press wants to say a word
about Parker's White City. now
in Norfolk, not a a favor to the
White City, but because it wants
the people of this community to
know the character of this or
ganization. They are a clean
bunch of people, who put up a

Wherever they have gone they
have met the approval of the
highest class of citizens. They
have made good in Norfolk. 1t

He paid high tribute TO the Demo
cratic candidate for mayor, j. w,
Stockard. as one of the most progres-
sive men in Roswell or the entire
Southwest man who has attracted
the attention of the nation and the
whole wide world, and given Roswell
some of the best advertising she ever
received by establishing the first sue
cessful automobile mail route in the
United States-starting a movement
carrying of mails on Star routes. His
name will be written in the history
of the nation as the father of auto
mobile transportation of mails. 1t is
a proud honor for the city of Roswell
to have such a man at the head of
her city government man who on
his own initiative builds a hundred

brings Roswell twenty-four hours

He pronounced it libel TO refer to the
"Citizens" ticket as Republican. If it
had been Republican, he was sure
that Ed Cahoon could have gotten up
a ticket to peat it all to thunder. He
referred f~eelingly to his ten years
personal friendship for J. w. Stock
ard, patted City Clerk Beck on the
back. and again insisted that it was
unfair to load the Republican party
with the odium of responsibility for
the Independent ticket. He left the
impression. though he did not say so
positively, that he would vote the
