CaldW ~ IL Growing.

Neither hen, nor n.sid, sunshine nor
clouds appear to effect the growth of
the inhabitants of Caldwell. 1t is no
no use specializing further, Caldwell
is bound to be a big city. On Friday
of last week pair of twin girls ar
rived at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Chauncy Strickland. Their weight
was Z and one half and pounds re-
spectively. Chauncy himself will not
pull the scales at over 81 and one
half pounds, but then it must be re-
membered that they were born in
Caldwell.

DIR. Pearsons the Philanthropist.

E. A. Bishop, Principal of the Mont
pelier Seminary, where DIR. D. X.
Pearsons attended nearly 70 years
ago and boarded himself at an ex-
pense of 40 cents a week, has this
to say of the Doctor and his methods:
For nearly two decades DR.. Pear
sons has been known as one OF our
greatest and most practical philan-
thropists. He has given of his wealth
freely and largely, but never layishly,
Whenever an institution has been
brought to his attention its claims
have been carefully. and wisely con-
sidered. Hence his offer of help has
in almost every case marked the be-
ginnings of larger success and pros
perity. Who can estimate the good
his millions have done, and will con-
tinue to do, in the development OIL
the Christian character in the thous-
ands of young men and young women
in these colleges? What can be more
insniring than his example of ardu
GUS work at 81 years Of age for ,n'
welfare and Christian training OF th'
young people of the landY
Moreover, DR.. Pearsons has taugh
men of wealth how to help withou
hindering: how to build up withou
tearing down; how to give withou
pauperizing. Two fundamental prin
cin,es of his benevolence other me-
OF wealth are adopting, First, n
proposes TO be his own executor Thu
he makes sure that his money WI
go where he intends and withou
fees or court charges. In this wor
he is one OF the happiest of men.
Second, he makes his gifts in sue
n way as to enlist the interest
others. Thus he enlarges, sometime
creates. a constituency for the inst
tution. The institution he helps b.
come great educational centers, abo'
which gather each year larger nun
Der of students. and TO which stream
of wealth continue to flow"

The trout that was never caught.
Hark! Don't you hear the coyotes
barking?
Ghee! but they do make a noise!
Must have got somewhat excited
When they saw those Caldwell
boys,
Ralph and Bill.
Two Caldwell sports went fishing,
For some trout they never got;
Dan told them where they'd catch
some,
But his advice they needed not.
They fished for hours without a bite,
When they struck nice shady
spot
They cast their lines into the stream,
But trout they never caught.
Ralph and Bill are dead game sports
You will note that by their fate
And as they went back to camp one
night
They decided to change their bait
Next morning bright and early,
Both men they started out
And they fished all day like troopers
But they never caught a trout
They both cut quite a dash
But the fish they brought home will
them,
They bought with their hard cash
Town Pump.

PREACHER ATE BAIT"
WILL OUT FISHING
Too Good to Give to the
Fishes.

A good story is told in Americas
on one of the preachers attending the
recent conference in Brunswick, evil
dencing the innocence of the good
brother as well as the proverbial
fondness of the cloth for the good
things of life. During a hull in the
church proceedings two of the visit
ing brothers chartered a row boat
and went out upon the sad, sad sea.
Fishers of men they were, but this
time they went after the real article
with the fins and scales. The boat
man had provided the usual bait used
there, a bucket of shrimp, which re-
posed between the knees of brother
Jones in his end of the boat, while
brother Brown f1shed from the PROV
Soon the latter had occasion to bait
his hook and called to brother Jones
for the bait bucket. Imagine his
surprise when the good brother from
the hills sheepishly admitted that he
had cleaned up the bucket, thinking
it a tempting lunch presented them
by the big-hearted boatman

GEORGIA LANDED STRONG.

Georgia cotton growers have play
ed lucky this year, as shown by the
ginners report issued by the census
bureau on Monday. While the larg-
est producing State-Texas-sh showed
a falling off as compared to the fig
ures for the same time last season
of 1,410,O7S bales, Georgia had ginned
126,97S bales more than at the same
time last year.
But this does not tell the whole
story by any means. At this time last
year prices in Americas were more
than a cent lower than now This
coupled with the increase in yield
has placed Georgia,-the second cot
ton producing State-in most envi-
able position. Every other cotton
producing State of Importance, with
the exception of Oklahoma and South
Carolina, have sustained a loss in
the amount ginned to Dec. /.
In a word, Georgia has made a
gain of nearly 10 per cent in the
size of the crop, with prices at the
same time 10 per cent higher. The
fortunate part is that nature smiled
SO benignly on Georgia in year
when the crop was very much re-
stricted in other parts of the belt. It's
a case of big crop and good price
for the Empire State
Last season Georgia had a smaller
crop, but the weight of the enormous
yield in Texas and the Territories
forced the price so low that Georgia
farmers were confronted in many
cases with an actual loss for the sea-
son. Had this years yield of the
State been made last season values
would have been depressed still fur
Their But Georgia guessed which cup
the ball was under and landed at
the opportune moment with a yield
crop which has commanded good
prices.
Fortified by such a supply of so
valuable a commodity, it will be i'm
possible for South Georgia to exper-
fence a scarcity of the needful. In
fact, most farmers have been able to
lay aside something for a rainy day.
Another season may see conditions
reversed, but for this one year South
Georgia is the favored child Of for
tune.

ACTRESS VISITED
SCENES OF PLAY
Miss CrOzier to Appear in
LENA Rivers.

When c. II. Packard decided to put
out a production of Lena Rivers
dramatized from Mrs. Mary j. Hol-
mes novel, they Immediately engag-
ed Miss Blanch Crozier, the actress
most fitted for the part of Lena.
Miss Crozier made careful study of
the play and then decided to visit
the scenes of the book, as the story
is a true one in great many res
poets. Believing that she could get
so much better conception of the
part by actually knowing the 10
Gale" of the play and seeing the
class of people which the story is
written around, she spent one-half
her summer at the little village of
Slocumville, Mass, and the balance
near Frankfort, Kentucky, where
Lena grew up and spent the balance
of her life after leaving Slocumville.
Although conditions had changed
soemwhat in the years since the book
was written, there was a great many
of the characteristics of each place
that were still unchanged. A number
of the people whom Mrs. Holmes took
as models were to be found in each
place and were very much fattered
by the interest that they aroused.
After a weeks visit among these
people Miss Crozier made the same
| journey that Granny and Lena made
so many years before, and at the old
Livingston home near Frankfort, KY,
studied the home of Lena and Dur
ward and all the other friends.
Miss Crozier seems now to play her
part with almost reverence, and the
fact that she so thoroughly under
stands her character is the cause of
much favorable criticism.
The play will be seen at Glover's
Opera House tomorrow night and
matinee.
