The settlement of the Mt. Airy
case on a money basis was due
in a measure to the fact that thft
young woman vho was shot wa.
an orphan and has othe-s de
pendent on her for support
This beirtj so it was contender,
that it would be better for he"
to get ?2,50O damages, which
would be a great help to her;
that to punish the yo.ng men
by seudmg them to the peniten
tiary or the chain gang would b,
of no personal benefit to her; and
in addition the payment of the
damages, the fines and costs,
which amount to about $5,00,
will bo some punishment to the
guilty. We appreciate thu force
of this reasoning and idi: prob-
ably best to settle the case that
way. But whenever mn of in
fluence and wealth escape pun
ishment for a serious offence by
the mere payment of money, we
cannot but feel that a wrong lias

We hail thee.blesscd Christmas tide,
And shout thy praises far and wide,
Than day of joy and mirth!
Than beantitul, blessed holiday
That bids us cast each care awav,
And hail a Savior's birth.
The children sport arouiid the fire,
And Chistnias joys never tire,
Or seem to be abated.
The ring of laHghter, glee, and mirth
Sends forth the peal heard round the

With childhood's joys freighted.
Children, use these pleasures well
Enjoy each sounding Christmas bell
For age will mar your glee
When Santa Claus is real no more,
And festivals are all but a bore;
Then you will say with me:
Oh! give me bai;k thoe happy days
Ot Lnnsimas stories, lays and plays.
Those days of ignorant joys. '

With a beardy face and a stately poise,

To the crack ot the whip and Santvs

A Cotton Tree.
According to a letter from J.
R. Spence, at "Wellas, India, a
cotton tree has been discovered
and he is sure the new discovery
will revolutionize the cotton in
dustry. He states he hed the
good fortune to discover that
there exists a tree, practically
indigenous, at present growing
in various parts of the Bombay
and Madras presedencies, which
produces a cotton infinitely su
perior both in classification and
staple to American cotton, and in
every way equal to Egyptian cot
ton. Up to the time of discovery
of this new tree, nothing of any
value had been done with the new
product except to use it for mak
ing lamp wicks and stuffing beds ' net afford io lei. Judia gut juch
grown from four to five and a
half feet, full of buds and bolls,
and bearing cotton after being
planted only six months.
The quality oi the "new crop,"
in 1906 cotton of this tree is su
perior both in class'tication and '
staple to that of the parent tree.
The estimate to that first year at
a minimum of four ounces per
tree, or about 600 pounds to an
acre. The second ( year's crop
should double the first and the
third's crop double the second,
and it is well known that trees
after three will yield as much as
5 to 10 pounds per tree, and the
known life of the tree is twenty
years.
It will thus be seen, said Mr.
Spence, that if 1-3 of the India
cotton growing area were planted
With this "tree, and it will be,
that after the third year the cot
ton production, of India would,
more than greater the amount of
India and the United States com
bined. American experts are
said to claim the same.
Well gentlemen, if that be the
case it would be a good and wise
thing for our cotton growers to
experiment with this' tree also, it
would be little trouble to get both
the seed and plant, but should
we find it some what difficult, no-
doubt in time your labor would
more than be repaid. You can
