Romanists in Butfalo Sui round Church and
Threw B.ick Bats Through Windows.
Bpff ilo, April 15 An immense
meeting, addressed by the Rev. A.
E. Barnet; u Philadelphia, was
disturbed ? ni practically broken
up by a mob of Roman Catholics
last night in Grace M. E church.
The mob fcllowed the speaker,
aftwf the meeting, crying ' kill

eluded hem, escaping to his ho
tel and from the city while the
mob filled the tre)ts howling like
a pack of hungry wolves and de
manding his life.
- While the hoodlums or the out'
side were throwing bricks through
the windows, a Knight of Colum
bus, named McOrnr.ck, demand
ed a paper in the possession of the
speaker and abvanoed to the pul
pit in a disturbing and threaten
ing way. Someone got hold of
him and hurtled him out when
hundred of his kind in the back
of the church rose and rushed to
the front.
Those on the platform drew tc-Z-
ther, and, with the aid of four
p. linemen, repelled the attack,
the meeting being dismissed short
ly after, since the mob outside
made it impossible to proceed.
The speaker escaped the waiting
mob and started away under es
cort, but was soon followed to the
post ffioe which s-emed to be the
only safe place to go. The sher

Stockholders to Ratify 120,000,003
Bond Issue for Sucti tfoik June 2.
One of the most important
announcements made by the
directing heads of the South
ern Railway is that of its pur
pose to extend its double
track from Charlotte south to
Armour, Ga . a distance of
263 miles, just as soon as the
necessary bends, which are to
be issued within the next 30
days, are sold. A meeting of
the stockholders of the Atlan
ta & Charlotte Air Line Rail
way, one of .tha; constituent
properties of the Southern
Railway system, has been
called for June 2 at which
time the proposition will be
presented of approving a sup
plemental agreement with the
Southern and also to ratify a
proposed issue of 820 000,000
of bonds at not more than 5
per cent interest the proceeds
thereof 1 3 be mainly used as
required in- the double-tracking
of its main line from
Charlotte to Armour, Ga.
This double-tracking is sim
ply an extension of the dour-ble-trackiug
that has been in
progress for the past several
years between Washington
and Charlotte, all of this
main line being double track
ed except a few short sr.reches
in Virginia and also a gap of
a few miles length between
Coucori and Harrisburg,
where Rocky River crosses
the line. Just as soon as the
line can be double tracked to
Armour, this will give the
entire main line the proper
equipment for any traffic de
mauds 5n the future between
Washington and Atlanta.
The factis well known that
this main line is the heaviest
traffic road in the South and
when it is double tracked it
will provide the greatest con
venience imaginable.
Lightning Burns Church af Cleveland Row

Salisbury, May 8. During
a severe electiic storm which
swept over this section of the
State early this mirning
lighting set fire to the Baptist
Church at Cleveland, Rowan
County. The blaze was dis
covered about daylight and
created quite a spectacular
fire in the quiet little town.
There being no fire company
and no public water supply
the citizens were powerless to
save the building which burn
ed rapidly.
It was a frame structure
and the loss amounts to about
82,000. No other buildings
were damaged.
Crimson Clover in Corn
A correspondent who does
not sign his name nor say
where he lives, and hence is
not entitled to a reply, wants
to know if crimso'u clover can
be grown successfully by sow
ing among corn at last work
ing.
Now there are some parts
of this country where it is
thus grown with success, but
iu most of the South that will
be early, and you had better
sow peas in the corn and cut
and shock the corn at matur
ity, ani then disk down Hhe
peas and so-". the clover in
September. If any one wants
an intelligent reply he should
sign his natim "to his letter
and tell where he lives, for
it is evident to all that I use
no one's name in the paper.

Santa Barbara, Cal. , May9.
S. W Post, multi million
aire cereal food manufacturer
of Battle Creok, Mich., com
mitted suicide in a bed room
at his residence here today by
shooting himself through the
head with a rifle. Post was
sixty years old. His wealth
ises timated at more than $100
000,000. For many years he
had suffered from neuras
henia, but only yesterday
ne was pronounced by nis
doctors to be in good condi
tion. It is thought he was
temporarily deranged when
he fired the fatal shot.
Post secured a 40.72 rifle
from a closet during the tem
porary absence oi Mrs. irost
and the nurse and lying on
his bed he placed the rifle di
rectly over his right eye. It
is thought he palled the trig
ger with his toe. The
bullet tore eff the top of his
head, plunged straight
throughtthe bed and through
the wall of the adjoiuing
room.
Post had returned to Santa
Barbara three weeks ago to
day from a race with death
which he had made to Roch
ester, Minn. There he had
undergoue a critical intestine
operation by the famous Mayo
brothers, tie had - rushed
here in a special train accom
panied by a staff physician.
Applying Lime to Growing Crops
A reader wishes to know if
he 4 may apply ground lime
stone to growing clover, new-
y sowed oats and clover and
rape and oats, the land on
which the rape and oats are
growing to be sowed to alfalfa
this fall "
The place for lime or lime
stone is in the soil, hot on it;
but since these crops are on
the land thev will riotr be in
jured by the grouncl lime
stone and will probably be
benefited, or at least some of
them will by scattering it
over the surface.
This limestone should have
been applied last fall before
sowing any of these crops.
As soon as the rape and oats
are grazed off, the limestone
should be well worked into
the top soil a month or two
before sowing the alfalfa.

Some Valuable Hints to Those Interested
Id Raising Vegetables for tha Home,
Are you going to have a garden
this year and all the time till this
time next year, or are you going
to plant a truck patch for early
crops and then run to weeds and
breed cat worms and nut-grass in
the fall?
Every now and then some one
writes that he has a garden fall
of nut-prasB and wants to know
how to destroy it. The only way
I know is to keep the soil so busy
growing good things that nut
grass nor any other weed has any
chance, The way to get rid of
weeds of any sort is simply not to
allow them to grow and seed.
The man, then, who plants a
garden in the spring and does not
follow up the early orops atonce
with succession crops, but leaves
his garden in the late summer and
fall with a rank growth of weeds,
dead tomato vines and dry oorn
stalks, will have weeds in abun
dance, nut-grass included, and
will have his early plants next
spring eaten down by cat- worms,
for the eggs that produoe these
are laid-in the grasB and weeds and
hatched out in spring as the oropa
are planted.
Five years ago when I bought
the land on which my garden is,
it had been lying out and growing
weeds for years, and the first
spring I attempted to make a gar
den, I had s regular battle with
out-worms and the nut-grass.
But that summer the garden :
was kept absolutely clean, and
the next spring there were few
cut-worms and nut-grasa was
oaore scanty. Again the nut-grasa
was chopped off daily and the
whole garden kept constantly at
work growing something useful,
and sines then I have hardly
found a cutwtr, nd nut-giasa
is the scarcest weed in the garden.
On the east side of the garden,
around which I have a oaiokeu
netting wire fence to keep out the
neighbors chickens, there is a
stretch of vacant lots held by a
realty company for sale, and all
down the outside of that fence I
have to cultivate a large strip to
keep the rank weeds from blowing
their seeds on my garden, and
running their roots under the
fence and taking the munaure I
give the garden, for before I did
this I found that there was a strip
three or four feet wide outside,
where the weeds grew as high as
my fence and were evidently feed
ing on my manure with their rob
ber roots . This year I propose to
plant something lw and useful
on that outside strip, a row or two
of blackeye peas for instance if
the chickens will let me, for on
the other side of the fenoe I want
to set tomato plants or something
else that I can train on the fenoe
and I do not want the rank weeds
to shut out the sunshine from the
east. The owners of the land do
not oare how much of it I culti
vate, and it would be well if all
these vacant lots were cultivated
by someone instead of letting
them breed weeds for the neigh
borhood W. F. Massey, in The

- Health a Factor In Success.

well when they are constipated.
