A Question Of Names.

On one occasion a bishop who
prided himself on never forgetting
either the name or face of any cler-
gyman in his diocese happened to
be travelling somewhere by rail when
at certain station clergyman got
into the same carriage in which the
bishop was.
The bishop recognized the mans
face, but could not remember his
name, and, not wishing to acknowl-
edge his forgetfulness, leaned for
ward and, with charming smile,
said:
Excuse me for forgetting, but
how do you spell your name p
"J-o-n-e-s, my lord" was the re-

A YOUTHFUL HERO.
How Major croshan Won Fame In The
War Of 1912,

How Major Croshan Won Fams In the
War Of 1912.
Only few names escape oblivion,
but Aug. 2, 1918, insured lasting
fame for Major George Croghan.
Ninety-three years later, on Aug. 2,
1906, the remains of this youthful
hero were reinterred on the site OF
his great victory.
During the war of 1912 Croghan,
a handsome, spirited Kentuckian.
was sent by General Harrison to
take command of poor little stock.
ade, Fort Stephenson, at Lower
Sandusky, now Fremont, o. The
place was important only because
it guarded the approach to Harri-
sons headquarters and stores up
the Sandusky river.
On the morning Of Aug. l Cen
eral Proctor, the British COM
mander, with 500 regulars, veteran
troops who had served under We'll
lington on the peninsula, sailed up
the river in gunboats of Commodore
Barclays fleet and landed cannon
and howitzers, with which they be-
gan to lombard the fort. Mean
while Tecumseh, with 700 Indians,
swarmed through the woods and be-
gan the attack from the opposite
side. To one of a less sanguine
temperament or of less courage than
the young commander the situation
must have seemed hopeless. But
Croghan not only showed confidence
himself, but inspired it in those un-
der him.
Croghan had 16O men and one
small cannon, which he moved
about from place to place to induce
the belief that he had several guns.
Late in the afternoon of the I'd the
enemy made a united assault. So
valiantly and effectively was it re-
pulsed that the whole British and
Indian force made precipitate re-
treat into Canada.
"It will not be the least of Gen
eral Proctor's notifications" wrote
Harrison, "to know that he has been
baffled by youth who has just pass
ed his twenty-first year. He is,
however, hero worthy of his gal
liant uncle, General George Rogers
Clark"
Croghan himself wrote just be-
fore the battle: "The enemy are not
far distant. l expect an attack. l
will defend this post to the last ex
tremity. l have just sent away the
women and children with the sick
of the garrison, that l may be able
to act without incumbrance. Be
satisfied l shall, l hope, do my duty.
The example set me by my Revolu-
tionary kindred is before me. Let
me die rather than prove unworthy
of their name"
The battle of Fort Stephenson
was the first really brilliant effort
of the war of 1912. General Sher-
man said it was "the necessary pre-
cursor to Perry's victory on the lake
and Harrison's triumphant victory
at the Thames, which assured to
our immediate ancestors the mas
terry of the great west, and from
that day to this the west has been
the bulwark of the nation"
For his exploit Croghan was bre-
vetted lieutenant colonel by the
president of the United States, and
congress awarded him gold medal.

farm from unrestrained life on the New York streets. to be drilled enough to make them acceptable farm hands in the West and South. they are rather mystified by the strange bearing of this permanent comrades
 At first. they may resent a little hia ways of authority and observauee of tradition, but they soon como to undar- stand and instead of plaEuing the old man treat him very kindly. For hia strange affiictton seems to gain for him the immunity from pranks which insanity gained for its sufferers ak the hands of Indiana.
 But the little boys at the farm. the small chaps who have been abandoned by their parents, or have been taken away from bad surroundings and are being cared for until 6 foster home can be found for them, soon learn to love the old man, who, half-child him. self, Is very kind to the little folks.
 Long ago the farm authorities ceased to wonder what they could do for their life student. They have accepted the inevitable. and he will probably be there and continue to have his daily paper one day late until that time when he leaves the school for good and perhaps wakes in another sphere.

Success in Growing Cora. nronviIle Journal.


 MT. ". s. Bowden brought to the Journal offiee Monday afternoon two stalks of corn taken from hte neld or markabia in several respects. TAe ears. roastdhE sar stage. are located at q dis- tance Of alnA and fourteen tnfAss. re- spsctavslx geena the rootas or X ne see- that the silks would touch the ground The extrerna height of the stalk. tas- sel Included would not exceed i've and a half feet. We supposed that the corn was new variety which Mir. Bow en had procured as a novelty from some seedman, but he informed us that the variety had been grown in the family since 1S4s, his father having gotten hold of 1t that year. Mir. Bowaen says the corn will shell from one buahel and d peck to one and one-half bnshels per barrel and usually yields ss to 70 bush. ? MT. Bowden cultivated the crop this year after the Williamson method. that Is to say, by retardtng the growth. . The corn was planted March 10 wtthot the use of fertilizer. this being applied on May l3 and May 25 as the crop was cultivated about 450 pounds Of cotton seed meal per acre was used in the two applications. The fruitinE was thus delayed until the stalks had attained full growth, hence the nitrogen supplied was taken up almost entirely in ma turing the ears. Mir. Bowden regards this Variety of corn and the method of cultivation followed as decidedly the best of this section.

REPUBS ARE WORRIED
THE PROBABLE INCREASE OF
 RAILROAD RATES.
Judge Clenaents Says The Comhin atson Being Formed To Advance Rates Is Violation o1 Anti-
 LA Trust Lawn


 Washington. D. C., July ts--(sps- ciaL)--The tendency on the part of the railroads to substantially Increase trapsportation rates on or about Sep tember l. is said to be giving Repub- ncan campaign managers consider able worry.
 This proposition Is being opposed vig- orously by some of the industrial or ganizations. and to sustain the latter. Judge Clements. of the Interstate Com merce Commission, comes out with a statement to the effect that the comb nation being forced to advance rates is in violation of the anti-trugt laws Several very prominent railroad ofa- eials have stated here to high govern. ment officials that 1t is q case of raise course is resorted to. 1t will probably precipitate strikes. which if started, may become general: and altogether 1t Is worrying question for Republican campaign managers, who have for years been boasting of general pros. perity while their party is in power.
 It is understood that the Census Bu- reau will on Monday send out circu- lara to gather information in regard to municipal and other bonds. This ia done by direction of the Treasury, and the talk here is that the administration Is getting ready to put into effect. if the necessity arises. some of the lead ing features of the emergency cur rency bill enacted at the recent sea- sion of Congress. The claim is made that if c stringency occurs as that which overlook the country last fall. . panic can be averted by assuring the people that the government is in . position to weather any storm that naay arise . sS
