May Be n Blessing.

Roanoke Leader.
 There are many acres of cotton all over this part of the country that have not been picked over one time. The scarcity Of labor is the cause. While this condition is temporarily in convenient we believe it will prove in the end to be "a blessing in disguise to the entire country It will final ly force large land owners to sell off into smaller farms. which means more homesteads. Then it will make the small farmer plant less acreage and make more cotton, or whatever else ne may desire to raise. One man can cultivate a few acres more easily than he can many acres, In our opinion. we are just merging into an area of farming In the South quite different in many respects from that which ehracterizes the nineteenth century.

 New York. Nov. l5.--Harry Kendall Thaw. in the Tombs. yesterday ordered three suits of clothes. presumably to wear them at his trial. which will probably begin before Recorder Golf on Monday. December ,.
 Recorder Golf becomes a member of the Supreme Court on January l, so that indications are that the Thaw trial will be much shorter than has been generally expected.
 The opinion of the District Attorneys office that the trial, for big murder trial, should not last so very long. The prosecution will not introduce any ex- traneous matter and District Attorney Jerome expects to conduct the case for the people with despatch,
 It Is expected the defense will be long. but Recorder Con Is not opposed to holding night sessions and it is expected this will be done should there be indications that the trial will last over Christmas.

Owners Prefer To Dispose of Boat To Expend Money in Repnirs--Ships Disabled tn September
 Hurricane.

Pensacola Fla. Nov. 15-(Speetal,l- l-- The Norwegian bark Lila one of the inc new foreign vessels to receive damage by the September hurricane was sold this morning at private sale for the sum of 5000. The bark, which was moored alongside Perdido wharf at the time of the blow, was left stranded on a quantity of piling, and suffered damage by a large hole being driven in the side and with water up to the water line. No effort was made to float the vessel, and the owners de- cided not to expend any money in that direction, but to sell the vessel as 1t stood.
 The bark is flron hull. and consid- cred a fine vessel in every respect. The purchasers, the Gulf Machine Works' will make repairs. and if they are suc- cessfuI in floating the ship. will have a vessel worth ten times the amount paid. The Lilla is of 1000 net tons, and arrived here only a week or two prior to the storm.

The coroner's jury empaneled to in- uuire into the death of the unknown white man by a physician more than week since, and to ascertain his name' if possible. made it's report this at . ternoon with the result that nothing more is now known of the identity of the man than before. The jury had before it as the principal witness. Maggie McCullam. the woman who came here with the man, and who was found in an unconscious condition with him.
 She stated that she did not knew his nome, and that she met him on the train, while she was en route :o Pensacola, at Bay Minette. He persua- ded her to go with him, after their arrival i'd Pensacola. and she entrus ted s15o 10 his care. She claims the man blew out the gas Tn the room. even after she warned him. The jury then returned the verdict that the man. name unknown, came to hi, death by accidental asphyxiation. Over $500 was found upon his per son, and the $15O claimed by the wo- man has not yet been surrendered td her. The body will probably be buried tomorrow.

STATE HORHCUL-
TURAL SOCIETY
Report OF Mr.. George BaIderson,
Vice-Presidenf For Cecil County

The Horticultural interests in this
county have not materially changed
since last report. at least | have not
seen or learned of any especial increase
in the acreage that is now devoted to
the production OF fruit or garden crops
that come especially under this head
ing. The canning industry is still an
important one but its operations have
been confined to corn and tomatoes
and at least one OF the corn Gamers
did not run his plan or have any plant
ed for his use because OF the unSatSiac-
tory prices obtained for the pack OF the
previous year.
The tomato crop was a fairly good
one and some growers realized salts
factory return, but this crop seems to
do better on some soils than others and
will not produce a uniform yield when
all other conditions seem equal.
| know of no general packing house
that begins on the earliest vegetables
and runs throughout the season, ending
with apples Our end of this county
is so blessed with perennial springs OF
running water and will grow such good
crops OF natural or cultivated grasses
for the use of cattle, that it makes our
locality prominently the home OF the
dairy.
There should be and is no insupcrable
obstacle between the care OF cattle and
poultry and ordinary horticultural pur
suits, but those OF us who have tried
it know that they must be kept in sep
arate and distinct enclosures and have
witnessed the disastrous results of a
brief incurSon OF even one favorite
family COW in the home garden, and
know how a flock of Plymouth Rocks
relish a breakfast, OF peas, cabbage, or
lettuce.
The dairy man enjoys the fruit and
the vegetables as much as anyone else,
when he can get them, out for the rea-
sons | have stated he does not always
have them where money getting is the
primary object but if any one Under
whose eve this may chance to come
wants a home free from malaria with a
spring OF soft water in every field OF
his farm, and who enjoys the prospect
OF seeing his herd OF Jerseys browsing
contcntcdly on his urccngrass pasture,
let him come to old Cecil and we can
accommodate him Or il he be manu-
faCturcr we vet have water power run
ming to waste and will in the near future
show him one second only to Niagara

The past has not Dccn a full fruit sea-
son with us. but beginning with the
strawberries there has been an ample
supply for home use We did have a
frost that caught the trees when Just

A Pat Reply.

President Mckinley once had an ap- plicant for the post of minister to Bra- gil who brought with him petition signed by 1000 Chicagoans. It seems that he was a picture framer, and as he went about canyassing for orders he was in the habit of collecting sigma lures to his petition. President Me- Kinley listened respectfully to the ap- plicant, questioned him as to his quail ifications and finally explained that be fore he could give the matter serious consideration he would have to confer with the senators and representatives from Illinois.
