FARMERS ARE CAUGHT
BY HEALTH INSPECTOR

Inspector John T. Kerr, Of the
health department, this morning pre-
vented four farmers at the public mar
ket, New Brunswick avenue and Fay
cite street from dispensing fruit and
vegetables and ruled one Of them out
of the market permanently. All -four
the inspector charges, were selling un-
ripe and deeayed fruit, covered for the
purpose of deception, with sound fruit.
The action of the inspector was taken
following a complaint concerning one
Of the farmers. He was told that the
farmer had sold several barrels of
peafs, sound fruit on top but rotten
underneath. The farmer was told not
to appear at the market again. In max
ing an inspection, three similar cases
were found. Kerr will hereafter make
frequent visits to the market.

1t was decided at a meeting Of the

ing the first week of each month. The
grade teachers will divide themselves

vene on one of the four afternoons al
lotted in the first week of each month.
The eason for the change is the in.

sible.

The King and the Beggar

There are few more democratic mon
archs alive today than King Victor of
Italy. He is very fond of going out
chamois hunting quite unattended, and
one day he met with an amusing eX-
perience. He had shot a chamois and
a peasant boy. who had seen the animal
fail, offered to so and fetch it. The
king thanked him, but the lad in
quired what was to be his reward.
well. what do you want?" asked
King Victor.
"A franc and half your luncheon"
was the reply
The bargain was struck and the peas
ant went off and brought the dead
chamois The king handed him a franc
and proceeded TO divide his luncheon
into two equal portions. But the peas
ant turned away in contempt, for the
royal luncheon consisted only of black
bread and a large raw onion.
"Bahw exclaimed the boy dsdain-
fully, II thought you were a real gem
tleman, sfgnor; but ] see you are only
a poor beggar like myself after all"

The Making of a Businessman

So many panes of glass in old Mr..
Viner's greenhouse had been broken
that he had at last offered a reward of
10 shillings to any one who should give
information as to the identity of the
latest offender. The bait soon drew.
A youngster called on Mr., Viner and
informed him that a lad named Archie
Thompson was the guilty party. He
received his reward, went away re-
joicing and the old gentleman forth
with wrote TO the local schoolmaster,
demanding the production of the said
Archie Thompson, TO make good the
damage he had done 10 his windows.
Next day the informer called again.
"rhe schoolmaster sent me-" he
said briskly. I've seen glazier and
he'll put your glass right for 3 shill-
ings. Here it is, and"
mot so fast, my lad" said Mr. VI

SHORT BARKS FROM ALONZO

Little Bo Peep had lost her sheep,
And couldn't tell where to find them.
All through the fields and woods she looked
Wherever she used to mind them.
Sadly at last, she gave it up,
And sat herself down, despairing;
Then came Alonzo, sheep and all,
And each his own tail was wearing.

BY KATHARINE nEAAs

wv the origin of the clover, it is
certain that the ancients held it
in great favor. Hope is represented
holding out clover blossoms. Summer
is also holding clover, as a promise. of
future good. The Greeks used it ex-
tensively. for garlands, and in decora-
tions for their festivals. 1t was in
troduced in Greece, so says Pliny, from
Media, during the reign of Darius, the
Persian. The Druids, an ancient order
of the Celtic priests. whose name is
derived from a word meaning tree re-
garded it as one of their sacred plants
and held 1t in veneration second only
to the mistletoe.
The name clover is from clava, a
club, and the little three part leaf is
supposed to have been given it's name
from it's resemb bIance to the three
headed club of the great Hercules.
The generic name of the plant is tri-
folium, meaning one leaf with three
parts, and the latest authorities give
800 varieties.
IRELAND'S FLORAL EMBLEM
But interest in the clover centers
chiefly in the fact that it is the floral
emblem of the Emerald Isle. In the
early days of the mission of the great
st. Patrick he was preaching one day
In the neighborhood of Meath, and was
endeavoring to explain the doctrine of
the hinity to an audience who found
1T difficult to comprehend.
How, asked one of the chiefs, "can
there be three in one?'
The saint stopped and picked from
the sod at his feet clover leaf, and
hnfA -
hold in this trifoliate leaf how three
persons in the Godhead can exist, and
yet be one"
The illustration was so~simple. and
yet so forcible, that the chief and his
whole clan accepted the Christian
faith
From this tradition in all probabilitv
came the adoption in later years of the
shamrock as the national emblem.
There has been some conflict as to
whether the wood sorrel or the white
clover was the shamrock of Ireland:
but decision has been generally In
favor of the clover.
OTHER INTERPRETATIONS
AS the trefoil is the emblem of the
Trinity, it is used in decoration for
Trinity Sunday.
Another significance given to the leaf
by the early Christians was that the
stem represented the path of life the
right hand leaf purgatory, the left
hand leaf hades, and the center leaf
paradise Still another Interpretation
was that the threefold leaf was an en-
blem of faith, hope and love. the three
great elements in Christian life.
The trefoil has been introduced as a
feature Of ecclesiastical architecture.
The extremities of crosses and church
windows, as well as interior and ex-
terror decorations, are often made in
the form of the three leaves"
The clover is one of the plants that
undergoes a radical change in the
nighttime. AS evening comes on the
side leaves fold together and the CEN
ter left bends over them in a prayerful
attitude. tn transformation was, no
doubt, an additional reason for the rev.
erence with which the plant was cher
ished and accounted for the idea which
prevailed that it was antagonistic to

Hardwick Creates Sensation.

Hardwick created a sensation by
reading letter from Congressman
Charles H. Burke, of South Dakota,
chairman of the McMurray investigat-
ing committee, in which he charged
that Watson, in the summer of 1900,
conferred with him and other promi-
nent Republicans of South Dakota, at
the Palmer House in Chicago, with
reference to aiding the Republican
party for financial consideration.
The Burke letter concludes:
watson was in Chicago at the
time and was there for the purpose
of negotiation. He undoubtedly did
have an arrangement with Senator
Hanna by which he contributed to
the success of the Republican cause
in the campaign for financial con-
sideration. The amount paid Watson
by Hanna is said to have been $780,
0OO"
Referring to the charges made
against MIN Dy watson, HdruWlck
said: "If Mr.. Watson will swear to
those charges l will put stripes on his
back, shackles on his legs and put
him on the road of McDuffie county,
where he belongs"
Watson says it will be his political
death if Hardwick is renominated.
| The indications are that Hardwick
will sweep the district.

HARDWICk HURLS
Def AT WATSON
Special to The NeaDS.


Thomson, Ca, Aug. S.-Congress-
man Thomas Hardwick and Thomas
E. Watson hurled invectives at each
other Saturday from opposite sides of
town, while. scores of special officers
kept watch to see that there was no
breach of the peace.
Watson wants Hardwick defeated
for the nomination and the former
Populist bitterly resented the pres
ence of the Congressman here at his
home. Watson had made threats that
there would be bloodshed if Hardwick
came and denounced him, but there
was no trouble.
Watson spoke to about 400 people
at the court house, while Hardwick
addressed a crowd of nearly 5000
about half-mile away. Watson's
speech was simply in denunciation
and he seemed to be depressed by the
fact that Hardwick had come.
