BonilIa Insists on Occupying Puerto

General Bonilla declares that he will accept the armistice only on condition that he is permitted to occupy Puerto Cortez. Puerto Cortez is the most inn portant port on the northern coast of Honduras and as the federal forces abandoned it because the revolutionary army intended to capture it. it seems that the leader of the revolution is un- willing to lose the advantages which would be gained by it's occupation.

Belair, Md, Aug. 17.-Prof. A. B.
Cron, of the Bureau of Plant Indus
try of the Department of Agriculture
at Washington, was in town today
and addressed a large audience of
farmers at the Courthouse on the
raising alfalfa.
He stated that the three requisites
for the successful raising of alfalfa
are lime, drainage and incubation.
incubation, he said, can best be OBJ
tanned by sowing inoculated soil from
a successful field in the proportion
of not less than 200 pounds to the
acre. Too much cannot be used.
This should be applied on a cloudy
day, or at least in the evening, and
thoroughly narrowed in. When pre-
results coul dbe obtained by the use
of not over two tons of caustic lime
to the acre, but said that the best
results could be obtained by the use
of ground limestone, which should be
applied twice as heavily. For fer
tilizer he recommended 600 to 1000
pounds of acid phosphate and 200
pounds of muriate of potash to the
acre.
According to the speakers expert
ence, alfalfa should be cut when about
One-tenth of it is in bloom and there
after about every 80 or 35 days, or
whenever the new shoots begin to ap-
pear at the roots. He was of the
opinion that alfalfa was a much
more desirable crop for this section
Of the country than clovers, as Glow
srs yield for one and, under ex-
ceptional circumstances, two years
while good field of alfalfa will last
five years and give a much larger
yield each year than the clover.

Wheels OF O. JUSTICE
REV0LVED WRONG Way
How Negro Sent Up For Eighteen
Months Served Double Term

Speaking of the wheels of Justice,
that was a bum joke told by mem
Der of the Virginia Clerks Associa-
ton, during their recent session here:
At least it is doubtful if the butt Of
it ever succeeded in finding wherein
lay the humor.
Clerks are naturally. wound up in
a maize of technicalities which make
it ,inexplicable to the ordinary mind
how they ever know when they are
complying with the law and when they
are violating it. The case at hand
is simple enough, when reviewed,
even though it proved rather incon-
venient to negro restrained from
enjoying the freedom to which he
was legally. entitled.
The story came out on mention OF
the simple form now sent to the
prison superintendent as notifica-
ton in the case of prisoners SEN
fenced to his establishment. The
form itself takes the place of more
cumbersome legal instrument used
heretofore. That some of the clerks
knew nothing of the new blank is
typical of the need of uniformity in
such matters-but that is another
story.
That particular clerks story was
something like this: .o
"a negro in my county had been
tried for a crime and sentenced to
serve two years in the penitentiary.
One of my deputies made out the
little slip, required by. the prison
superintendent, telling briefly of his
offence and the two years sentence.
Before the guard took the negro to
Richmond, a motion for new trial
was heard with the result that his
sentence, on re-trial, was reduced
from two years to eighteen months.
My deputy then made out another
report to the prison superintendent,
intended to correct the farmer- one
containing the same information only
setting forth his sentence asefghs
teen months.
"The result was that the negro
served both terms for the crime for
which, on re-trial, he had been SEN
fenced to one of only eighteen
months. At the end of his year-and-
a-half term, he applied to the pris-
on authorities for dismissal but they
would not listen to hir!. 1t was no
unusual thing for Prisoners to plead
that they shoul:i BE released, that
their detention vas unjust, so NO
attention wes paid to his claim
Didn't the have the record? 1t
wasn't worth investigating"
"What happened when he was
finally released?" some one asked
1--WE had an awful time" was the
reply. "He brought suit for $4,000
but by hard work it was finally com.
promised for $3.50. He was noccc
with bad record and I believe, has
his case gone to court, he would Very
probabl? have lost it on that &c
count. The fact remains, howey CT
he served two years longer than Ii.
sentence called for, due to a sim PIX
mistake such as clerks have to con
stantly guard against. The impor
lance of the ci-.ce is at once mani
