An Onion Story.

Daddy" Clark of Claraville. came
to the Advance shop Tuesday, with 10
onions which weighed over seven
pounds. He stated that he had grown
them on his farm and plenty OF them,
that he cultivated them by the Camp
bell system and his yield per acre was
big enough to convince him that they
are the best paying crop he could raise.
He put stress on the fact that he kept
the cultivator going in dry weather
performing its duty.
W. X. ID. Smith, living l2 miles south
east Of town, was present at the time
and said that he had plenty at home
As large as the ones shown by Mr. Clark.
That he expected to have 100 bushels
from patch OF about three-fourths of
an acre We don't know whether this
is big onion story or not, but we do
know that the gentlemen convinced us
that Beaver county will grow onions OF
quality and size.
We expect almost anything though
as all crops are surprisers this year

Of FAMOUS
NAVAL FAMILY DEAD

Mrs. Robert E. Bradley of Washing
ton, D. c., died peacefully at her home,
1880 end street, on March IA. She was
| the OUNCES daughter of the late Rear
| Admiral Thomas Holdup Stevens, L. S.
N. who also died in hat city. He was
the son Of Commodore Thomas Holdup
| stevens. who died n command Of the
Washington navy yard in IS41. Her
brothers were Rear Admiral Thomas
Holdup Stevens, L. s. y. now on the
retired list; Captain Pierre Christie
stevens, Payniaster, L. S. A; Raymond
Rodgers Stevens, Captain Esd Z. S. In
fantry; and the late Rowan Stevens, a
poet and former secretary to his god
father, the late Vice Admiral Stephen
c. Rowan. Her husbands oldest
brother was the late distinguished
Andrew c. Bradley, Associate Justice
of the Supreme Court of the District Of
Columbia, and her sister was the late
beautiful Mrs. stephen Vail of New
York.
Her father was closely identified with
the early history of Honolulu, and she
accompanied him in his flagship, the
Pensacola, when he visited the islands
in 1881.
It may be remembered that her
brother, when executive officer Of Ad-
miral Miller's flagship, the Philadel-
phia. commanded the combined forces
of bluejackets, marines and the Nation
al Guard OF Hawaii, upon the memoir
able occasion of hauling down the Ha-
waiian flag and substituting that of the
Tn tee states. The coincidence was a
singular one, as he was the only officer
of the Z. S. Navy born in Honolulu.

pursuit of health, a for several years
