Their New Pipe Organ.

The new pipe organ made by NJ.
p. Moller of Hagerstown, Md, for
the Presbyterian church was unload
ed from the cars last Monday and is
now in the church waiting to be set
up. An organ builder from the fac
tory is expected here daily to set up
the instrument.
The new organ is of quartered
lakewood and its ornamental pipes
are of annealed zinc with gray and
gold decorations. The organ is 13
feet wide across the front, 8 feet
deep and II feet high. 1t will have
1865 metal and 1862 wood pipes, with
five stops prepared for additional
pipes which can be added as wanted
Twenty-Five stops are prepared for
immediate use.
The setting up of this organ will
add greatly to the interior of the
church. The pulpit platform and
choir screen have been artistically
made ready for the reception of the
organ by Mr.. E. M. AlbrO after
drawings prepared by Mr.. S. J. Bar
stow, and while much room is taken
up there has been no curtailment of
the seating capacity of the church.
Mrs. j. j. Charles has been engage
ed as Organist, and as soon as the or
gan is in place it is her purpose to
give recital that all may see and
hear the new organ. Mrs. Charles
was for several years organist at a
leading Baptist church in Chicago,
and the Presbyterian church is in
deed fortunate ia securing an organ
list of such recognized ability.
The organ will cost, set up, about
81 800.

Some Holy Rollers.

Palatka has been harboring LOT
of g0-as-you-please holy rollers this
week and if reports are true more
than one good citizen has had his
neither limb extended for coin in the
name of religion.
The outfit is composed of one man,
several women and two or three
vealy youth, all of whom either
| pound drum or make an effort at
humping tambofine while they
sing "When the roll is called up
yonder, I'll be there" in such way
as to make you hope Providence
will not delay the roll call any longer
than necessary.
These "holy rollers" are simply a
gang of religious fakirs who tramp
from town to town playing upon the
re ligious sentiment of communities
to raise money for their own support.
They have no connection with any
religious association, but on the
contrary dress in such manner as to
be easily mistaken for members of
the Salvation Army, an impression
they do not try to correct-when
there's any money in sight.
An officer of the Salvation Army
who was in the city during the week
publicly denounced these rollers on
the streets the other night and oc-
cused them of taking money from
citizens who gave under the impress
sion that they were giving to the
Army.
The rollers denounce all the
churches as anti-Christ and of course
proclaim themselves as the only
real thing. They have also publicly
denounced the city authorities for
not caring for certain poor, sick
family who are in great need" when
as matter of fact the members of
the family in question are profess
sional mendicants, who will not
work other than to pull at every
known cord Of sympathy, and who
during the past several weeks have
not only received aid from q dozen
individuals and two churches, but
from the city council, the police de-
partment and the mayor. And yet
this band of ignorant tramps, be-
cause of the fact that they ply their
leg pulling occupation in the name
of religion God save the mark
must be allowed to stand on the
street and denounce a whole city.
1t is too bad that our vagrancy law
does not permit the police depart
ment to run this entire outfit into
the chain gang.
Palatka will stand for any amount
of honest religious effort, but it
should draw the line at tramps.

New York Orange Market.

The New York Packer of the l2tl
inst has the following concerning the
market for Florida oranges:
The market on Florida oranges thi.
week has ruled very strong. notwith
standing much of the stuff coming
shows the effects of the recent freeze
In the stores trade has been very ac.
| tive for fancy fruit and for stock
which shows no waste prices ranging
from $3.50 to So 90 have easily beer
obtained. The quality of wasted
fruit, however, is very large, much
larger than dealers anticipated last
week, and prices on this class OF
stuff show II wide range. Advices
indicate rather heavy shipments this
week and it is likely that the offer
ings next week will be very large.
Just what percentage of this stuff
will show up sound is the question
which is troubling dealers just now.
Conditions have favored the receiv-
ers of Florida oranges this week and
1t is likely that there will be a good
demand for Floridas for the next two
or three weeks, owing to the light
receipts of CALIFORNIA;. CALIFORNIA;
are not running over 10 cars day
now, which is very light for this
season, and the trade is forced to
take Floridas, which naturally have
an advantage in the East. particular
ly at this season.
Florida shippers will act wisely if
they withhold shipments of fruit
which show the effect of frost. There
is always question about this fruit
carrying and inasmuch as it has
been an impossibility, owing TO de-
lays in transit, to get real sound fruit
on the market in good shape this
winter it would seem to be a fool
hardy venture on the part of ship
pers to start frozen oranges to mar
ket. A shipper who selects his fruit
carefully and ships only sound, I'M
affected stuff, will not find his re-
turns disappointing.

HIGHER INTEREST

NEW YORK, Aug. 22-Owing to the
present stringency in the money mar
ket, the city of New York was obliged
today to raise the rate of interest on
bonds it now has for sale from A to Az
per cent. In addition the Mayor is
sued an order to the heads OF all city
departments, requesting them to limit
the expenditures of their respective
departments to the lowest possible
point consistent with efficient admin
istration.
The action increasing the rate OF in
terest was taken by a meeting OF the
Sinking Fund Commission today. The
bonds affected are those known as cor
porate stock of the city OF New York

This is the first time in twenty
years that the city has been compelled
to pay more than 4 per cent.

JEFFERSON DAVIS DAUGHTER
PROTESTED TO GENERAL
PALMER AT FEDERAL
REUNION.
Against Exhibiting the Reward Of
fered for Her Fathers Arrest.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Aug.
26.-When Mrs. Margaret Howell JEFF
ferSon Davis Hayes, daughter of the
president of the confederacy, learned
that a member of the fighting fifteenth
Pennsylvania cavalry attending the
reunion here had hung upon the walls
of the Antlers Hotel copy of the old
proclamation offering a reward OF
100000 for the arrest of her father
and other confederate leaders for al
legged conspiracy in the assassination
of President Lincoln, she Immediately
raised a protest to Gen. William ].
Palmer, the host of the reunion.
Before her protest had been re-
ceived, however, Gen. Palmer had
heard of the proclamation and ordered
it be taken down out of Difference to
Mrs. Hayes, who is the wife of j. A.
Hayes, a banker in Colorado Springs.
Il was a small child at the time"
Mrs. Hayes wrote, and like most
southern children, l looked upon Lin
coin as the arch enemy of my coun-
try. As the servants and guards
around us were thoughtlessly rejoic-
ing, ran to my father with what /
supposed would be good news to him.
He gravely and gently took me in his
arms and explained to me that this
terrible deed was done by crazy man,
who, no doubt, thought he was the
savior of the south, but was really
her worst enemy.
Always remember, my little
no wrong can ever make a
right he said. The south does not
wish her rights to come through das-
tardly murders but through fair fights
Then he sighed heavily and said:
This is the bitterest blow that
could have been dealt to the southern
cause. Lincoln was a just man, and
would have been fair and generous in
his treatment of the southern people
His successor is a man we can ex-
pect nothing from"

WHAT SHALL WE DO
WITH THE DOLLAR?
UNCLE SAM HAS ONE FROM FIRE.
MONT, S. c., FOR SOMETHING
HE HASN'T GOT.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Treasury
Department officials are at loss to
know what disposition to make of the
sum of 81 received through the mails
from Fremont, S. G. The money was
accompanied by a written statement
unsigned, stating simply that the 81
was in payment of watermelons and
that the writer hoped the Treasury Of
ficials would fix everything all right
with the Government.
AS the Government neither grows
nor deals in watermelons the Treasury
officials are at loss to know how the
Government can be concerned in the
transaction. One explanation has
been advanced by one of the officials,
who is wise enough to be connected
with the Secret Service, but who is
not
He says that the conscience-stricken
person is probably negro, who mas
been making free with some planters
watermelon patch, and having got re-
ligion at some camp-meeting has tried
to square his accounts by returning
the price of the melons to the officials
of the Government, hoping thereby to
have free road to the pearly gates.

FAYETTEVILLE
OVER $4,000 WORTH OF SHEEP
HANDLED DURING THE
PRESENT SEASON.

FAYETTEVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 20
The sheep industry in Lincoln County
has reached wonderful proportions
During the present season something
like 1000 head, worth over $5O,OOO,
were handled throughout the Fayette-
vile stockyards alone. 1t is esti-
mated that 10000 head Of sheep have
been shipped into the country. These
sheep have been sold by the dealers
to the farmers of the various sections
of the county. Encouraged by the
present dog law the farmers have
turned their attention to sheep rails
ing. There are many dogs in the
county that have not been registered,
but one sheep-killing dog and enc
charge to the grand jury by Judge Hig
gins, it is thought, will make the sheep
raisers hopeful. Great results are ex-
pected for the efforts that are being
put forth by the sheep raisers.
