The Fight on the Tin Soldier.

The advocates of universal peace,
disarmament. arbitration and the 9th
er fads which So many good people
are nowadays taking up, are rapidly
making themselves ridiculous. All
though they do mot profess to be So
cialists, they nevertheless adopt one
OF the fundamental principles of mod
ern Socialism, namely. the breaking
down of all National lines, the eHmi-
nation of war and patriotism and the
establishing of the universal brother
hood OF men, The latest tad Is against
the tim soldier of childhood.
These good people appeal TO par
ents not % permit their little boys to
imbibe dangerous notions about the
glory of war and the profession OF
arms through playing with tin sol
dlers. There is not q man i'm the CoUn-
try who cannot recall the thrill of
pleasure and pride with which, as a
boy, he received his first gift OF tim or
Ieaden soldiers. With what 10Y he
marshaled them I'm battle array and
trained his toy artillery on their ser
ried ranks All this pleasurable boy
ish amusement is now TO be destroyed
IL the peace advocates have their way.

1t is always encouraging to read
in the local news that a big bunch
of negroes has been rounded up and
taken in hand by the police charged
with playing craps, for this is assure
sign that the law will get itself in
operation and that something def
mite is going to happen. There is no
trouble about cOnvicting them, for a
negro is always guilty Of playing
craps. 1t Is a sure thing. 1t is all
right for anybody to tear up a hun
dred and thirty five thousand dol
lars worth Of sidewalks; for wagons
to appropriate sidewalks to the in
convenience of pedestrians: for the
latter TO be put in fear of their lives
by recklessly driven vehicles along
the streets, or for hundreds Of other
things to be done that are violations
of law Of much more Importance to
the public than crap-shOoting. with
out any official attention being paid
to it, but a negro is always pulled
for playing craps. The public doesn t
object to seeing its property destroy
edit has no use for it. 1t can Dor
row more money and build the side
walks over again; and although the
people are paying for the sidewalks
every year, they don't know it, and
it doesn't matter. And a good way
to keep from being run over in the
street by rapidly moving team, is
to get out of the way Inasmuch
as all such police regulations as these
go unenforced, as if there were no
law, it is really cheering to see a big
bunch of crap-shooting negroes in
tow, for this is a good sign that law
is not dead. Crap-shooting is a
great and useful game-Meridian

Seed Corn on the Cob.

Suppose a new leaf Is turned over
this year, and seed corn is selected
or bought on the cob. This will
give opportunity to study the kind
of ear the seed comes from. Some
ears ought to be rejected on account
Of their not being well covered with
grains or of their having grains that
30 not fill all the space around the
cob. Maybe there are vacant places
down close TO the cob or ut the butt
Of the grains. Such ears do not
have enough grain to be good seed .
If planter will buy his seed on
the cob, he can, in addition to look
ing over the ear well, take out FIVE
grains from each cob and sprout
them. BY this means he will get
an idea of the terminating ability
of each ear. The ears from which
seed sprout poorly should not be
planted. If one Is going to have a
patch to raise seed in, he certainly
should not fail to buy seed on the
cob. Two ears may germinate
equally well, but one may produce
grain at the rate of 50 bushels more
an acre than the other. If the
grains from each cob are planted in
separate rows, one will then know
what rows or the progeny from
what ears To use in the breeding
patch the following year. Stark

LIFE SAVED BY A PLUG OF
TOBACCO.
How Hicks, the Entombed Miner, was
Able to Endure the Horrors Of His
Fifteen Days Imprisonment.

The whole country was intensely
interested a few days ago, in the eff
forts made to rescue Linsey B. Hicks,
a miner who was entombed for fifteen
days. sixty feet under ground, as the
result of cave-in at Bakersfield Cal.
He heard around him the despairing
cries of his companions, who were
crushed to thesdeath by the falling
rocks and died before they could be
released.
During the -long.PeriOd Of. hist con-
finement Hicks never lost heart. He
could hear the workmen digging away
the debris and approaching nearer
and nearer each day. When at last
he was rescued and brought to the
surface of the ground, it was found
than had been expected. When ques-
toned as to the secret of his cndur-
ance, he said;
During the first few days I existed
on a plug of tobacco That tobacco
did as much for me as any other
thing / was able TO keep my mouth
moist with it, and although / wanted
water, that tobacco juice performed
the service. / certainly made it last,
too. Every piece I chewed I chewed
until / could get no more juice out of
it, and then swallowed it. If it had
not been for that tobacco 1 believe I
would not have been able to endure
the agony Of my long confinement"
Two days before Hicks was taken
out of the mine food was passed down
to him through pipe. The first thing
he asked for when communication
was opened was chew of tobacco.
One Of the workmen who had a plug
of Star tobacco in his pocket pushed
it forward through the pipe to the inn
prisoned miner. When the latter re
ceived it he cried out, Take your
time, boys, I'm all right now, and can
wait" He afterward said that the
tobacco gave him new life and vital
ity.
