has always maintained a ferry service
between the battery and Governors
Island. For many years the ferryboat
Hancock served as the means of
communication, but finally it became
so dilapidated that a new boat, the
Gen. Otis, was placed into service. The
Otis was designed by the experts" in
the Qartermaster Generals Depart
ment of the army and it was expected
that it would be a model for craft of
its kind. Results proved however, that
the Gen. Otis did not come up to ex-
pectations. The boat displayed a re-
markable tendency TO ship water, no
matter how calm the water in the bay
might be and its wheel worked so
hard that it took two strudy pilots to
handle it. Many of the officers and
their wives received drenchings while
crossing in the boat and several times
the steering apparatus became so un-
manageable that the boat, instead Of
landing at the battery, swerved over
to the Brooklyn shore. Now the old
Hancock is to be patched up and put
into service again, while the Gen.
Otis, which cost $4,000, is to be re-
modelled.
Soon there will be no excuse for the
aristocratic patrons of the Waldorf
Astoria hotel to neglect their religious
duties on Sunday. The management
of the hotel is installing a fine large
pipe organ in the magnificent ball
room and in the future services will
be held in the large hall on Sunday
mornings. Conservative church men,
bers do not altogether approve of the
idea to hold religious services on
Sunday in the same hall which, on
other days is devoted to the rather
frivolous use OF dancing and feasting,
but others rather favor the plan which
promises to bring to church many
persons who would otherwise not go
to church at all.
The judge, the officials and lawyers
and all the rest of the people in the
Tombs Court were greatly alarmed
the other day during the hearing of
the case against a prisoner. charged
with grand larceny. The alarm was not
due to the explosion of a bomb or in
fernal machine, but by the fact that
one of the officers dropped a package
containing twelve alarm clocks, the
alarms of which were set going by the
shock. The frantic efforts of the Off
Gals to open the package and to
stop the individual alarms from ring
ing caused considerable merriment in
court for some time.
An old blind man, led by a bright
faced lad of thirteen, both showing
signs OF extreme poverty came to the
Children's Bureau Of the Charities
Department the other day and told an
unusually pathetic story in a straight
forward manner. The old man, blind
since his early childhood meagerlv
supported himself by soliciting? aims
on the streets. Several months ago the
boy showed kindness to him by help
ing MIN to cross the street and when
the Old man heard that the little fellow
was an orphan and homeless, he be-
Irlended the boy and shared his berth
IN the lodging house and his FRUGAL
meals with him. But finding THAI he
eoulo not make enough to support
ooth, he asked the authorities to take
care OF his little friend. The boy was
sent TO the Brace Farm School. at
VaIhaila, N. Y, and for the old man a
place will be found in one of the
homes for the blind.

VATICAN Is DISPLEASED.
Papal NunciO at Madrid Will Prob
ably be Recalled as Result of
Spain's Action.

Rome, July 91.-The Papal nuncio
at Madrid, Mgr Vice, has not been
recalled by the Vatican, which is
awaiting the official announcement
of the recall by the Spanish govern
ment of Marquis de Ojeda, ambassa-
dor to the Vatican.
The Vatican is greatly offended at
the methods adopted by Premier
Canslejas in the recall of the Span
ish ambassador as the announcement
was made through the press and
neither the Papal nuncio at Madrid
nor the Vatican was notified directly.
AS a consequence the Papal Secre-
tary of State, Cardinal Merry del Val
has not been able to take any meas
ure of retaliation, but it is believed
that Mgr. Vice will be instructed to
leave Madrid Immediately after the
onicial announcement of Marquis de
oJeda' recall is received here.

the production of very large crops Of
this valuable fruit, especially in the
eastern provinces of the Dominion,
where Strawberries have come into
very general use. The ease with
which new varieties of this fruit are
produced from seed has resulted i'll
the introduction during the past few
years of a large number of new sorts.
The Buster, originated by G. G.

the best varieties 1t is roundish,

lowing communication and endorse its
sentiments. Lyon county is fortunate
in having two such good men as d. w.
Melarkey and Chas. Mcleod to choose
from for the Office OF Clerk and Treas
urer. Both have the respect and conf
dence of the people who have known
them for years. The communication
follows:
YERINGToN, NEv., Oct. 5, 1910.
To the Editor of THE TIMES,
Dear Sir: ! wish TO say a few words
in commentator of ID. w. Melarkey,
candidate for the Office of Clerk and
Treasurer of Lyon county. He is the
present incumbent and his conduct of
the Office is such that only praise can be
heard from his numerous friends of
whatever political faith. He has seen
Lyon county advance rapidly in the past
six or eight years, and with its con
stantly increasing duties of his Office, he
has met the situation and handled it in
most satisfactory way, as is attested by
every one.
Everything is done to the moment,
and even on his busiest days there is
the same pleasant and accommodating
manner to be found with him. This
one of our public servants has surely
met the requirements as a capable, hon
est and efficient man, and his sober and
industrious mode of living has gained
for him the lasting respect of all.

FARMERS BOYS AND GIRLS.
Clubs to Interest Them In Work Re-
cent Development.


Within recent years new method
of agricultural educa ton has been de
vised in the form of boys and girls
clubs. Such clubs have various OBJ
jecls. but usually they provide for
prize contests among the members
Corn growing contests are probably
the most common among the boys,
although many other crops have been
tried. while the girls compete in bread
making or sewing or even test their
skill against that Of the boys in gar
dening.
The United States department of
agriculture has information of 800
counties in twenty-eight states in
which such clubs are organized, with
a total membership of about 144,00O
New York has about 10000 members.
Nebraska $4,000 and other states
smaller numbers. One county in
Pennsylvania has 1000 members. In
most cases these clubs are organized
under the auspices of some state au-
thority. but in many cases the county
superintendent takes the initiative,
while in many other cases the rural
teachers arrange contests among their
own pupils.
The United States department of
agriculture also gives assistance
through the Office of experiment sta
tions by furnishing advice and sug-
gestions. A new farmers bulletin on
boys and girls agricultural clubs
tells how to organize the clubs, how
to conduct the contests and what pub
ications will be useful to the boys
