called a convention of all the Beasts
and announced his intention Of abdi-

There was general JOY among the
Beasts. for the Lion had lorded it after
his own fashion. The Elephant was
squirting around. the Rhinoceros was
pushing his nose into the crowd. and
the Giraffe was doing a heap Of think

Lion continued:

will not only be kept in the family.
but the family will be kept in Office:
There being no further business before

s,aek Rot, It's Control and Cure.

IA. w. Barre, Professor of Botany
The black rot of sweet potatoes
seems to be widely distributed through
South Carolina and in many cases is
causing serious loss. This disease
where present is readily recognized in
the fall when the potatoes are dug.
At this time it occurs as black, mottled
areas over the surface of the potatoes.
The disease does not seem to cause
serious trouble in the fall, but when
potatoes affected with it are stored, in
banks or houses the disease becomes
more active and causes rotting of the
potatoes. In many instances We have
found whole banks of potatoes destroy
cd by this rot.
Il frequently happens that all of the
potatoes In bank are destroyed, In
such instances the ones that keep
through the winter and are not badly
rotted are used in the next crop. The
desease was carried back to the field
on these slips. It remains there, at.
tacks the potatoes when they form,
and is brought back again to the bank
after digging time. In this way it
continues from year to year.
Sirce this troublesome disease is
spread through the slips which grow
from diseased potatoes, it is very
necessary at this time of year that we
secure seed potatoes for bedding which
are free from disease, Where no such
seed potatoes are available, it is ad-
yisable to plant small portion If the
patch from the earliest slips you can
get and then as soon as these put out
vines, make cuttings from the vines
with which to finish the planting.
Black rot is root disease and vines
taken from diseased plants will pro-
duce other plants free from disease.
Where the disease is present, it is of
course necessary to practice rotation.
When you grow sweet potatoes free
from disease, you will find that it is an
easy matter to keep them.

Birmingham, Ala.-Recent cable
grams from Brussels setting forth the
escapades of the duke Of Orleans
and the duchess suit Cor separation re-
call an incident of his career in Rich
mOnd twenty years ago.
One bright spring morning in 1893
something of furore was created
among the passengers on the little
river steamer that piled between Nor.
folk and Richmond when they learned
the identity of three distinguished
personages aboard. They were trav-
cling incog., but some one recognized
them as the count Of Paris, his son,
the duke of Orleans, and his nephew,
Prince Henry of Orleans.
The elder had come over to revisit
battlefields along and near James
river, where he had figured in 1862,
when on the staff, with his brother,
of General Mcclellan of the Union
army. The count was revising his
book on the Civil war and desired a
fresh view of locale and atmosphere.
They had visited Yorktown and Will
liamsburg, in which battles he had
taken part, and the itinerary was to
take them to Gaines Mills and Fair
Oaks, where he had fought CALAMITY.
His son and his nephew were hand
some dnqNirr ,rn.tc fellows. who had
