Of the bees, so persistent that drowsi-
ness came with it.. Also she saw the
low, spreading house, with it's p~illared

home, hers and-his. His. Her slow
mind stopped again. Hers and his for
all time-'till death do us part"-"for
better, for worse"-'in sickness or
health . . to love . and
honor . and cherish" Yes,
to cherish. So they had prom
ised-they two. standing alone
together, in all the solemnity Of
the marriage rites. But somehow the
sweetness had gone out of it all; the
love; or was 1t the comradeship? And
who to blame? Not he. No, not he.
Herself? She shook her head uncer-
tainly. Mostly it was duties" she
said. Oh, yes, all of ones duties to So
ciety-church duties; club duties; So
cial duties; and she shivered. Here
they all were, in pointed caps, with
little silver spurs en- their feet, with
which, when she Jagged, they prodded
her, with these and pointed tongues
of uncharitableness. Presently be-
hind them all she saw the figure of
her husband, his eyes upon her low
ingly; but ever and again they turned
sorrowfully upon the group about her,
and as often as he would approach
her, she was pushed back; he could
not reach her for the barrier of Du-
ties which stood between them.
The woman wept, she tried > brush
them all aside, for to her terror her
husband seemed to recede and recede
and she was unable to reach him. In
an agony Of emors and grief she
stretched out her arms. Then from
among the Easter lilies came a fairy
shape-a tiny child. A moment it
nestled on her breast, then it advanced
and as it advanced, the Shapes drew
away, grew fainter, and were gone;
and the tiny thing, leading the man by
one brown finger, brought him to her.
Was it only Cupid, the little god Of
love, or was it the spirit of the little
child which some day might come to
dwell with them? The woman held
out her arms and clasped them both
and held them to her.
When Mrs. Chester reused herself
from her swoon, or dream, or what
ever it was which held her bound,
it was to find her heart %throbbing
with a new hope and JOY and longing;
and she wondered whether or not she
had dreamed, or had been the priv
ileged listener to an Easter sermon
preached out Of doors by Nature, Ma
ture who was now in her most blessed
mood.
Through the open windows Of her
home came a low CHEEKY whistle. She
pressed the Easter lilies to her lips
in a passion of joy. In some way she
felt that she owed them something
a deliverance from something, and in
the depths of her religious soul she
cried: This is the resurrection and
the life," even as the bells had said
it-while her face was baptized with
tears.
1t was so that her husband found
her, on that most blessed Easter day,
when the sun stood high over the val.
leys, and spring brooded over the
foothill country.-Edna Head Mccoy, |
in Los Angeles Herald.

Plow in Early Winter.
Cotton Journal.l

Every. acre of land, clayey land in
the cotton belt, not yet plowed,
should be broken just as soon as
possible, especially il It is to be
planted to spring crops. To give
best results subsoiling should be
done before the heavy mid-winter
rains come. After the ground is
thoroughly soaked in the winter
subsoiling is going to do more harm
thar good. The surface to depth
CT eight or ten inches may give
every indication of being in condi-
ton for the plow. 1t may break cas-.
lily AMI pulyerize thoroughly while
the subsoil is entirely too wet. If
done while the under strata is
overcharged with water subsoiling
may press the grains together, thus
forming large clods, which are hard
er to crush than if near the surface.
The subsoil plow passing through the
wet strata leaves cavities, which fill
with finer earth very slowly, through
or across which capillary moisture

field Is to be subsoiled the sooner
the work Is done the better.
Fall plowing, rightly done. leaves
the soil in the best condition to
Withstand the eroding effects Of
hnovu rofnS nf O-i,,f
The deeper and wider the furrow,
other conditions being favorable, the
less is the danger from erosion. Ter
races and bitches should be strength
ened and given proper slope to
aid in disposing of surplus moisture
just as quickly as possible without
creating current enough to move soil
particles. ..
The sticky or tough clay soils are
improved more than any others by
fall Dlowing; such soils should be
left rough and as irregular in sur
face as possible. The frost then pen
atrates further and pulverizes the
clods more freely, thus doing much
which otherwise would call for extra
narrowing. Ten acres properly
plowed between this and the first Of
January, these we'll narrowed before
planting time, will be worth more
than fifteen acres prepared in the
ordinary way in the spring. The
cost Of preparing fall plowed land is
much less than for an equal area of
that not broken until spring. Ma
ture Is the farmers most reliable
and cheapest laborer. Prepare the
farm now, SO nature may be unhin-
dered in dong her work this winter.
! One other point which should be
, impressed at this time. The cost of

that this statement is applied within
preparing a given quantity OF soil
decreases as the size of the plow in
creases and the number of mules or

Increase the size of the plow, use
more mules to the driver and reduce
the cost Of making the crop.

DIAMOND MAKER MISSING
His Famous Formula Proves Fan
tastIc Farce.

Paris, June 1S.--The Lemoine dia-
mond case came to a sensational end
ing with an unexpected climax. Le-
moine has fled and his famous formula
for the manufacture of diamonds is a
fantastic farce.
Henry Lemoine was taken into Gus
tody few months ago on the charge
of having secured money from Julius
Wernher, the English diamond mer-
chant, on false pretences. Lemoine
declared he could manufacture dia-
monds and 1t is alleged that on this
representation he secured large sum
of money from Mr. Wernher. Le-
moine was released to give him an
opportunity to vindicate himself by
exhibiting stones of his own manu-
facture. When the case was called in
court Lemoine did not appear and 1t
was announced that he had fed.
In the presence of Mr.. Wernher the
court then opened the envelope said
to contain Lemoine's formula. The
paper inside was read, but 1t con-
tanned only tumble of fantastic and
senseless phrases.

The latest indictment found charges
that Morse and Curtis made false en-
tries in twenty-one reports TO the

years 1906 and 1907 and accuses
them of the willful misapplication of
the moneys, funds and credits of the

CAMPING IN THE PARKS.
Steerage Passengers Unable to Get
Aboard Outgoing Vessel

New York, June 1S.-More than a
thousand persons holding steerage
tickets for European ports were left
behind by the steamer Potsdam when
she sailed with her steerage quarters
filled to the capacity of 1000. The
thousand who were unable to find ac-
commodations in the ship were as
sured that they would be taken on the
next outgoing steamer, but many of
them made determined efforts to get
on board the Potsdam. They were
held in check, however, by large
force of policemen who had been sum-
moned to the pier.
Many of the prospective passengers
have little or no money beyond what
will be required to get them to their
homes and 1t Is likely that they will
remain In one of Hoboken's parks,
where they are now camped. until the
next steamer sails.

Knox and La Toilette. The galleries
were troublesome during much of the
time and Chairman Lodge finally
threatened to have them cleared un-
less the disorder ceased.
The names of the various "favorite
sons" were cheered as presented, but
the Taft demonstration outclassed all
the others, the cheering continuing
for twenty-five minutes, many delega-
tions seizing their standards and
marching around the hall.
Cannon Nominated First.
When the roll was called for the
nomination of candidates for presi-
dent the clerk ran rapidly down the
list of states and there was no re-
sponse until Illinois was reached.
Then Representative Boutell of Illi-
nois swept TO the platform to nom-
mate Speaker Cannon. The enthusi-
astic cheers were quickly hushed as
Mr.. Boutell held up his hand for at
tention and began his address.
address Chairman Lodge yielded the
gavel to Senator Hepburn of Idaho.
The mention of the name of Presi-
dent Roosevelt by the speaker called
out burst of cheers, which, soon,
however, died away.
The mention of the name of Cannon
was the signal for an uprising of the
Illinois delegation. They mounted
their chairs for few seconds, cheered
and sat down. Here and there through
out the hall a flag or handkerchief
was raised, six or seven of the New
York delegation joining in. Illinois
cheered In royal fashion, but its fol-
lowing was scant and the entire dem
onstration was over in almost exactly
two minutes.
While Mr.. Boutell was in the most
impassioned periods of his speech the
Taft and Fairbanks men, who occupied
seats almost at his feet. were busy in
preparing for their turn. They brought

them throughout their own delega

agree tC wave them at the critical
time.
Illinois was up again as Speaker
Cannon was formally placed in nom
ination and Ohio and a few delegates
from New York paid to Illinois the
tribute OF cheers and the waving OF
their flags. The explosion of enthu
siasm, however, lasted only about 9
minute.

Speaker Discusses the Platform al
Finally Adopted.


Chicago, June 19-Speaker Cannon
was seen at the Union League club
and asked for his views on the plat
form. He said:
II think the committee on esolu-
tions has worked out a very commend
able expression as to the position of
the Republican party on the two points
over which there was SO much contro-
yersy. The court procedure plank ex-
pressed in unequivocal language the
traditional confidence of the Repub-
lican party in the integrity of the
courts and insists that their powers
to enforce their processes and pro.
tect life and property must be pre-
served inviolate. The resolution fur
ther commends the courts by recon-
mending that what has been and Is
their practice in issuing injunctions
shall be expressly declared in the stat
utes. | approve the plank.
II also approve the plank as report
ed touching an amendment to the
Sherman antitrust act The commit
tee struck out of the tentative draft
of that plank the language which
seemed to endorse class legislation. /
think all Republicans can unite in the
endorsement of these two planks over
which there has been much contro-
versy.

harmony with the resolution adopted
by the Republican convention of the
Eighteenth congressional district OF
