Cleveland Wedding.
The pearl of the White House we'd
dings came next. This was the mar
riage of a President, Grover Cleve-
land, in the Executive Mansion. On
the evening of June 2, 1886, the East
Room resented a magnificent ap-
pearaHCe; the mantelpieces, mirrors,
chandeliers and columns were roses,
orchids and the national colors. A
distinguished company of fifty guests
stood in a semi-circle as the Presi-
dent and Miss Folsom of Buffalo, a
lovely girl who won the affection of
the American people, entered. A
great gun doomed from the arsenal
and every church bell and whistle in
the city sounded their gladness.
The bride was tall, graceful, blue
eyed and fair clad in a gown of ivory
satin trimmed with Indian silk, ar
ranged in Grecial folds over the front
of her corsage and fastened in folds
of satin at the side. She carried no
flowers and wore no jewels save her
engagement ring. Her train would
have reached from the spot where her
vows were pledged to the corridor had
she not deftly whisked it into glis-
tening, billowy pile at her feet.
The most recent White House wed
ding was that of Alice Roosevelt and
Nicholas LOngworth, in 1906. The
ceremony took place in front of a win
dow Of the East room which had been
draped in cloth of gold There was d

on a slightly raised platform with Mr..
Longworth. her gown of heavy cream
satin, princess style, giving her mag
nificent appearance. More than a
thousand invitations had been issued
and the array of wedding presents at
tracted much attention.

mended in preliminary report issued
by the commission on pensions of the
Episcopal church, of which Bishop
Lawrence of Massachusetts, is chair
man.
The pension plan, which has been
framed by Mcneil Sayre, an expert of
the Carnegie Foundation, after an ex-
haustive investigation by the commits
sion of every pension system in the
world, embraces in its scope the en-
tire body of $500 clergymen employ

A fund of 100000 would be neces-

purchase until he owned 1863 acres.
Mccall began working with such
portions of his land as were tillable,
and grew cotton and corn, the crops
common to that section. After work
ing along this line for fifteen years he
arrived at the conclusion that a man
with a limited equipment, who was
doing practically all his own work,
could obtain better results by concen.
trating his efforts on a smaller area of
land.
Accordingly, he selected two acres
OF land near his cabin, and for the last
twenty-one years has devoted his time
and energies to increasing the pro-
ductive capacity of this small area.
These two acres were in a little high
er state of fertility than the other till
able portion of his land, producing on
an average from one-third to two-fifths
of bale of cotton to the acre under
favorable conditions.
Improvement was begun by in
treasing the organic content Of the
soil At first this was accomplished
by blowing under leaves and other
decaying vegetable matter secured
from the nearby woodland, but this
practice was later discontinued. Corn
stalks, cotton stalks and all weeds
from the fence corners we're plowed
under, but never burned, as is a COM
mon practice in many portions of the
south. Practically everything but the
lint cotton and a portion of the seed

Jackson, Miss, Aug 7.-Mississippfs
cotton crop approaches the mid-August
period with no reports of serious de-
terioration In any section of the state.
There has been no marked increase
in the ravages of the boil weevil, the
farmers believe that if they can sue
cessfully keep up the fight for ten days
longer they will have won their first
signal victory over this pest.
Plenty of sunshine has helped the
staple and hurt the weevil. The tenn
perature has ranged high over the
state for the past three days, aiding
the work of destroying weevil eggs
in punctured squares, while the final
round of cultivation has knocked off
millions of weevil into the hot dusty
rows, where they quickly perish.
Reports from the delta state that
the staple is opening rapidly, and the
crop in the Greenville territory will be
the best for several years. The same
is true. in the Clarksdale territory.
Open bolls are being reported from all
sections of the state, and the first bale
may be expected within the next ten
days, probably sooner.
While Mississippi will not raise a
bumper crop this year, the yield prom
ises to be better than the farmers
had right to expect at the beginning
of the season. However, this is the
critical period. The crop will be made
or marred within the next two or
three weeks. Too much rain would
play havoc withprospects, for, above

FERTILITY PROBLEM SOLVED BY,
A NEGRO IN AN INNOCENT WAY

From Columbia, CTenn.) Heraid)
Perhaps no man of his time has
created more interest in matters per-
tanning to soil fertility than has Sam
Mccall, an ex-slave now living in VIII
cox county, Alabama. So remarkable
has been the record made by this ne
gro in his unpretentious way that he
has attracted the attention of the Uni
ted States government and the agri-
cultural department has issued a bulle-
tin of half dozen pages or more set
ting out the facts in connection with
McCalls farming, and the reclamation
of improbable lands.
The old negro can neither read nor
write, nor has he ever heard of any
theory on soil fertility. He however,
used some fertilizer on his land, but
only as an experiment, and this after
his soil had reached its maximum of
richness.
Inc experience OF this old negro is
to be the proving of theory Of Soil
vindication. That is, that rotation o.
crops and proper productiveness of
the soil to it's maximum, and that the
land will wear out The words of the
bulletin follows
Sam Mccall is an ex-slave and is
now over bevehty.ASe years of age.
At the time of gaining his freedom he
decided to remain as a tenant on the
plantation Of his former owner. He
was soon able to make a payment on
forty acres of land and to start farm
ing for himself, Later he added to his
