A SEVERE ACCIDENT

Mr.. William Johns, one of the contrac-
tors building the Bragdon residence,
while driving stake on Friday morning
with broadax was severely cut on the
right instep by the slipping of the ak ont
OF bis hand. That sharp instrument,
fortunately only struck glancing blow;
had it been otherwise, much mores erious
injury would have resulted, probably one
Iaming him for life. It was, however, bad
enough, for the Ak opened the anterior
tibial artery, and before the Office Of DR..
Ritchie could be reached Mr.. Johns had
suffered SO great loss Of blood, that as
DR.. Steinhilber informs The TRANSCRIPT
his patient come near swooning.
The Doctor who promptly closed the
artery, and treated the wound aseptically,
says that Mr.. Johns will probably. be able
to get around again in few days, thanks
to the clear cut character Of the wound
and its profuse bleeding which lessen the
perils of septic infection .,and favor a
quick union by drst intention OF she
surfaces.
John Wesley used to tell the story of o
deyout sailor who fell from the topmast
to the vessels deck, and shattered one Of
his arms in dreadful fashion, but who
nevertheless got up thanking God Upon
being called q fool by the profane cap
tain, he replied 81 am thanking God that
it wasn't my neck that was broken"
So MIR. Johns can apply the same logic
or pisty to his accident, for it might we'll
have been worse.

up of this old industry under new aus

CROP RETURNs
For Delaware Very BOuntiful
This Year

Delaware bids fair to have bumper"
crop year all around this 1910 Of grace.
The early fruits in Sussex and Kent did
unusually we'll. 100000 baskets Of
strawberries breaking the record, and
through the kindness of the weatherman.
who kept things cool aud well sprinkled,
90 slowly ripened ss to avoid the usual
gIut which breaks prices; so this big crop
of berries brought good returns financially.
The wheat crop is the finest in many
years with the prospect of e good price by
reason of large shortage, it is believed,
in the great Northwest belt of mo. !
hard" at least $l.00 plus per bushel.
Here are a few Of the earlv threshings:
Mr.. Julius Cleaver has gotten % bushels
to the acre on 143 acres; Mr.. W. P. Biggs
got "a bushels to the acre on go acres; Mr..
James Carpenter 25 bushels on 80 acres;
Mr.. John Bignear on the Williams farm,
reports 1000 bushels on so acres, an aver.
age of 80 bushels to the acre; Mr.. James
Mullin got 25 bushels per acre on q
tillage of about 125 acres; while Mr.
Walter Schriver tells Of getting S6 bushels
to the acre on his stock ground of 35 acres.
The reports as to the experimental wheat
given out by Mr.. s. M. Rosenberg, are
little mixed-as they say the wheat itself
was-but they generally show big yields.
The hay crop is very fine, and the
plentiful rains have made fine grazing for
the farmers stock, while the outlook for
corn is exceptionally good.
The blackberry, huckleberry and small
fruit sellers have also done well. The
peach and apple crop is yet to come, with
good prospects for the first, and very fine
ones for the second. Take it altogether,
the Delaware farmer has no agricultural
kick coming for the bountiful returns
past, present and prospective of the year
1910.

ON THE CoLoRED MINISTRY

Nothing in all the remarkable career Of
DIR. Booker 7. Washington is more credit
able to him than his courageous arraign.
ment of the Ignorant and immoral clergy
of his own race in the early days in the
South. While editing the Christian Union
about 1892, DR.. Lyman Abbott asked him
to write letter for the paper giving his
opinion of the condition, mental and
moral of the colored ministers in the South
as based upon bis own observations.
To quote his own words: 1.-THE picture
I painted was a rather black one. Il
could not be otherwise race but with q
few years out of slavery without time or
opportunity to produce competent minis
try" His criticisms drew upon him for
one year an avalanche of condemnation.
every association and every conference or
religious body of any kind Of my race that
met did not fail before adiourning to pass
resolution condemning me or calling
upon me to retract or modify what I had
said-But during the whole time of the
excitement and through all the criticism
I did not utter word of explanation or
retraction. / knew that l was right and
that time and the sober second thought of
the people would vindicate me-"
He was right. The bishops and church
bodies themselves soon began an investi.
cation, and discovered that he had stated
the case far too mildly, and they set about
reforming the great evil; and:Booker has
to-day his reward in seeing a purified
ministry arisen largely in consequences of
the severe, but useful structures he had
made. Mr.. Washington in his address at
Middletown spoke in strong condemnation
of unfit teachers and ministers and un-
fortunately misunderstanding some re-
sponse from one OF his colored audience
to question asked by him, made severe
but mistaken local application of his
words. However true this might have
been here number ofyears ago, it is only
justice to the two estimabIe gentlemen
now serving the two colored churches in
this place to say that in scholarship, eff
cheney as preachers above all in personal
integrity, they leave nothing to be de.
sired. Abiding to the ambition among
many of his early students to get an edu-
cation so that they would not have to
work any longer with their hands, Booker
in his autobiography, up From Slavery"
says: "This is illustrated by a story told
of colorsd man in Alabama, who one hot
day in July while he was at work in 8
cotton field, suddenly stopped, and look
ing toward the skies, said, % Lawd, de
cotton am SO grassy, de work am so hard,
and de sun am so hot dat I b'lieve dis
darkey am called to opreach.'"
