TIE NEW VEGETABLE !:
:. - II II 4. II m . II II u II :; ::

A news dispatch from Oregon re-
ports a large crop Of the new vege-
cable, the "beetatoe," combination
Of the beet and potato. This latest
addition to human foods is said to
De very prolific and of delicious fla
vor.
1t is not long since Burbank found
way to make the cactus edible.
The cactus is a desert plant. 1t need
not surprise us if in some such way
man should discover the kinds of food
of which he was deprived when Adam
and Eve were expelled from the gar
den. The record is Gen. 3:22) that
if man could have had access to
lhose foods he would have been able
to put forth his hand and eat and
live forever" In disfavor with God
it has been a blessing that man could
not do this, |or he was created to
live in harmony with his creator and
could not be truly happy under any
other conditions.
These wonderful food discoveries,
together with modern irrigation works
remind us of the prophesy of Joel
2:21, %, Fear not, o land, be glad
and rejoice, for the Lord will do
great things. Be not afraid, ye
beasts of the field, for the pastures
of the wilderness do spring, for the
tree beareth her fruit, the fig
and the vine do yield their strength.
They also remind us of the great
Messianic prophesy of lisa. 35, THE
desert shall rejoice and blossom as
the rose. The glory of (the forests
of Lebanon shall be given unto It,,
the eXcellency of (the fruitful hill
sides of Carmel and (of the vale of
Sharon. Say to them that are OF
fearful heart Chose losing faith
in God and thus losing all hope in
life) be strong, fear not. Behold your
God will come and save you
(out of your troubles, even including
poverty and death.) Then the eyes
of the blind shall be opened the ears
of the death shall be unstopped. Then
shall the lame man leap as an hart
and the tongue of the dumb sing, -
THE WANDERING JEW.

FUNERAL Of
HARRY G.. ST0NG
MAN WHO ROSE IN LIFE BY HIS
OWN ExERTlONS. A HAPPY
FAMILY BROKEN.

The remains of Harry G.. Stong
were laid to rest in Rose Hill ceme-
terry Thursday Afternoon. The odd
Fellows, of which he had served as
noble grand had charge of the funeral.
DR.. Weith of the Presbyterian church
officiated. The funeral was very
largely attended, the pail brearers
were selected from among the ole
and well known citizens of the town
who for years had been close friencs
of the deceased. The floral offerings
are said to have been among the
most profuse ever seen at a funeral
IN the city. He was surrounded by
his wife and children when the end
came and the funeral was attended
by three of his brothers, who reside
in Tennessee.
Mr.. Stong had led an active life.
His father passed away when he was
a young man and he devoted his youta
to assisting his mother in caring Tor
the family. He worked at different
industrial pursuits when young nan
until he heard the call of the wet.
Four years were spent in mining and
ranch life in Montana and oregon ana
upon returning to Tennessee he was
placed in the government service by
appointment from President HarrNs-
on. He was in the internal revenue
service when President Cleveland was
inaugurated but so clean record did
he have that he continued to serve
under a president whose ideas OF
politics differed from his own. He
also served as deputy United States
marshal in Tennessee where moon
shining was carried on extensively
and where every violator OF the law
hated the federal officer and here he
did valuable and faithful service.
Coming to Indian Territory in ls'3
he became real estate owner Wltnln
three days after he landed here and
from that time up to his death he IN
vested in real estate from time TO
time and his fortune grew. His es-
tate owns ap retty home in the most
beautiful portion of the city as well as
one of the best business houses on
Main street. Other property in dlt-
ferent sections of the city belong TO
the estate.
In 1896 he was married to MISS
Retta Small, who with three child
rem survives him. In his marriage
he was very fortunate, having chosen
for his wife sweet, home-loVln9
devoted woman who helped her nus
band in all the ways in whlch d
good wife may be useful. His child
rem have been brought up with the
post Advantages that could be hau
for th2m and one of the happiest
families in the city have been proN-
en- teCause of his death.
