He was unable to place this pa per in the hands of Plus x. or in the hands of his secretary. He could not approach the holy father and entrance to the apartments of Monsignore del Val was prohibited.
 He then devised a scheme He learned that the cardinal had gone to bathe in Lake Bracciano, some dis tance from Rome. At the moment when the papal secretary reappeared on the surface of the water, after plunge. the bailiff was before the min lSterlal olncer 10 place the paper uH- der the nose of his eminence. But the cardinal, who is an excellent swim mer, made dive, disappeared, and next took refuge in bathhouse, closing the door behind him.
 A half hour later his eminence was breakfasting at a restaurant. The re- past ended, he asked for his bill. The garcon brought it to him and upon the same plate the cardinal found the official paper The garcon was no other than the bailiff His last trick had succeeded. The paper was served.

TRIBUTE TO OLD-TIME NEGRO.

TRIBUTE TO OLD-TIME NEGRO.
 Germina Crowley died September 21, 1909. The place of her birth and the exact date are not known to the write, but she was nearly 80 years old. She had outlived most of her peo- pie and her later years were lonely. Aunt Nina was genuine old-time southern negro, a type that IS fast passing away. Her life was one of honest, loving, faithful, unremitting service for others.
 How well remembered is the bright ening of her kind old face and dim eyes as she voiced her favorite max inns: "Yes'm, b'heves in live and let live" and ives, ma am, right is right and right don't hurt nobody There is no doubt that she found a place pre- pared for her.

ARMSTRONG BEARING
THE WHEAT MARKET
So Say the Farmers of This Region
Some of Whom, 1t Is Alleged,
Say He Is Working for
Grain Buyers.

Referring to the recent report of
Grain Inspector Armstrong who stat
ed crop condition for the entire state
as he saw them, Patrick Dunnigan,
we'll known wheat grover of this
section, says that the figures are not
correct and that the result is very
misleading. Mr.. Dunnigan, who has
! 3,0CO acres of lard soWn in Franklin
| county, says that he can state pos
itively that the yield VII not average
Inearly as high as reported by Mr..
Armstrong. and will not even come up
to last years crop.
1.-The report is misleading" said Mr..
f, Dunnigan. and gives people wrong
Franklin county and l know that his
report is wrong fer that section, and
| 1 can also say that it is wrong for
the state. Driving along the road, a
person is led to believe that the grain
! is there. but under close inspection,
| it does not show UP we'll | am safe
| in saying that the crop will not av-
/ erage as high as that of last year,
and everyone knows that it was
nothing marvellous. Mr.. Armstrong
probably meant well, but his report is
wrong and shows that he is not yet
| familiar with the yield conditions OF
this state"
Although no definite action has yet
been taken in the matter, it is rumor-
ed that members Of the Farmers Ed
lucational and Cooperative union will
investigate this report in question
with the view of establishing a cor
rect impression of the prospective crop
of this section of the country. 1t has
been said by several people intimately
connected with this order that the re
mort of Mr. Armstrong was Furnished

nerve than his Royal Highness. Mr.
Moore is now filling an engagement in

wholly successful during the past few
months in making thrilling ascensions
in the America"
Balloon ascensions at county fairs in
years past have been quite common,
but Walla Wallans have never been

siders himself and the fair manage
