Accident at Bines Bros.' Mill. Elnstoa Free Press, Srd. v There came near being a serlons acci dent at Hlnes Bros.' lumber mills yester day afternoon about 8.45 o'clock.

Mr. Jack Dixon la his successor. Should any person need a salesman or a clerk in an office, they would be wise In wri ting to Mr. Windley. Addres, T. A. Windley, care writer of Journal, Tren ton, N. 0. : The poles of the telephone are being put up Iu town today. We are glad to see the good work going on. We saw iu the Cove Hems that it was the first time the people of Trenton could ssy "Hello." The writer was sadly mistaken. The pegple have been elsewhere to say "Hello," and especially to the "grand city" of Cove. . . . As 1902 has dawned on us let It be a thing of the present and future, and as 1901 has passed away let It be a thing of the past, and what has happened during the past year let It be gone from our memories, that we may look at 1803 as a year of peace aad prosperity, and if God will lead us we will certainly have both. While, however, we keep in mind our defects and shortcomings, we must not so remember them as to paralyze our fu ture attempts at holy and upright living. There is a sense in which we must "for get the things that are behind," and "reach forth to those things that are be fore." It Is our duty and our wisdom to say with the Apostle Peter; "The time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles." Hereafter let us walk soberly, righteous ly, and godly In the midst of this present evil world. The Inspired admonition oomes to each of us, "Whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all In the name of the Lord Joeus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." The defeats that overtake us must not cause us to lose heart and hope. At the opening of each hew day, let us pluck cp courage and go forward. By the help of God we shall overcome all our enemies, and stand entire at last. In a universe that Is under the role of Imflnlte Love there Is slwsys hope, "Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees, and make straight paths for your, feet lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but le. it rather be healed." e Wo have not wings, we cannot soar; But we have feet to scale and climb, By slow degrees, by more end more.

The committee of the Bute Literary and HIstorial Society . which baa in charge the arrangement for the celebra tion on Roanoke Island next July has prepared the following petition to the Congress of the United States, to com memorate oa Roanoke Island the birth of the first English child and the plant ing of the first English colony In Ameri cas On August 15, 1887, the first child of the Anglo-Saxon race to be born In the Western Hemisphere was given birth on Roanoke Island by Eleanor Dare, mem ber of the colony which Sir Walter Ral eigh had sent across the sess "to plant an English nation In America. The colonies of Raleigh, all planted on Roanoke Island, were the first deliberate and systematic efforts for English colon ization. They were the real beginning f the struggle by the Anglo-Saxon race for possession of the new world. Their failure waa dae not to lack of courage, or patriotism, or fortitude, but to the Ufe-and-death battle then waging In En glish waters between Spaniard and Sax on. The ships snd heroes that would have brought salvation to the English colonies on Roanoke Island were de tained at home for the destruction of the Spanish Armada. Roanoke Island was sacrificed that England might be saved. BntRaleigh's efforts at colonization were not in vain; he sowed the seed whose lm medlste harvest was Jamestown and Plymouth, whose latest fruits are San tiago and Manila. He was the Father of Anglo-Saxon expansion, planting In the new world not only English men but English law and English liberty. His letters patent from the crown secured for the first English colony In America, rights and privileges, whose denial two centuries later brought on the American Revolution; "all the privileges of free denizens and person native of England, in such ample manner as if they were born snd personally resident in Eng land" and especially the right to be governed by such laws as they might make for themselves. Soldier and sailor statesman and philosopher; poet and his torian; patriot and martyr; greatest hero in the greatest age of the world, the name of Italelgh stands feremost among all who sought to "plant an English na tion in America." The long struggle with Spain for the possession of the American continent Is at last ended. The Spanish flag floats nowhere In the Western World. Liber ty and law are today the heritage of every child born In America. ' The tree that Raleigh planted on Roanoke Island has grown until now H covers a conti nent. Its branches are spreading across Balboa's ocean. Beneath its shadow sits the oldest empire In the world, crying for help to the youngest republic. Its power has shifted the center of gravity of the universe, and shaken the founda tions of Injustice and oppression even to I the ends of the earth. The "Wilds of America" are become today the center of the world's activities. The Infant wall of Virginia Dare is grown into the voice of a mighty nation that now de cides the destinies of humanity. Fitly to celebrate the beianlng of these great events, honorably to com memorate the life and character of htm who deserves to be called the Father of English colonization, reverently to see the band of Qod upon the desert shore and hear His voice in the wave that breaks upon the sand where the first born American came to life, were alike the sacred duty and the glorious privi lege ol the people of the United States Wherefore your petitioners humbly pray that suitable provision may be made by your honorable body for the celebration on Roanoke Island, during tbe months of July and August 1902, of the birth of the first English child and the planting of the first English colony in America. A Prominent Woman Speaks. Prof. Roxa Tyler, of Chicago, Vice- President Illinois Woman's Alliance, In speaking of Chamberlain's Cough Reme dy, says: "I suffered with a severe cold this winter which threatened to run in to pneumonia. I tried different remedies but I seemed to grow worse and the medicine upset my stomach. A frftld advised me to try Chamberlain's Cougb Remedy and I found it was pleasant to take and It relieved me at once. I am now entirely recovered, saved a doctor's bill, time and suffering, and I will never be without this splendid medicine again.' For sale by F 8 Duffy & Co.

Tne phrase "castles In th air" has been attributed to Sir Philip Sydney, Bwift, Fielding, Churchill and Shen stone. It was first used more than 250 years ago byBobert Burton In his "Anatomy of Melancholy." We are AU Familiar" with the deep, hoarse bark, grimly called "a grave-yard cough." It Is the cry of the tortured lungs for mercy. Give them mercy in the form of Allen's Lung Bal sam, a remedy for pulmonary trouble, so highly esteemed that It is recommended even in the earlier stages ot consump tion. In the latter stages mortal skill Is unavailing. Nobody can afford to neg lect a oold. '; ?. A l - crssU 2iat you eat . HINTS FOR FARMERS I A Cheap InekikeiM, Any ooe having a small amount ol meat to amoks and not caring to de pend on tbe neighbors' smokehouse can build one himself without use of ham mer or nalla, says a correspondent ol New England Homestead. Simply takt an old hogshead and saw a bole neat the bottom for a stovepipe to enter. Get aa old cast Iron teakettle and cut B hole sear the bottom for draft Mow procure at least five lengths of stove pipe; better, ten; less than five will burn the meat Set your hogshead at least two feet above tbe level of tb kettle. Fill the latter with kindlings, including some hickory wood and cobs, and place the elbow o( the pipe ovei the top of the kettle. Start a fire and bang your hams in the hogshead. Th damper should be used when fuel it put In. This will do the work. I bavt used It for years and find It practical. Storing Cabbaces. To have cabbage good and fresh In the winter it is best to put it in the ground, says a New Jersey grower in American Agriculturist I open a dou ble furrow with the plow and put the cabbage In a single row with the heads down and the outside leaves drawn In under the head. I then plow two fur rows to them. The first furrow cov ers the cubbnge, aud the other I draw up over roots, smoothing along on top with a shovel so that It will shed the water. If I want to use the cabbage through the winter, then trash Is thrown over it to keep the ground from freezing to it I have been suc cessful In keeping cabbage this way and hav It to sell to my neighbors In the spring when theirs rotted by leav ing the roots uncovered. Giilnea Fowls on the Farm. Keep at least a pair f guineas on every farm as a hawk, rat, weasel and perhaps even a skunk preventive, says a Malno farmer In American Agricul turist In warm weather they will feed themselves, ns they are great for agers, but they are apt to lay out, so it is advisable to keep them within the coop till they lay, as often has to be done with geese. In many regions they can be bought cheaper than com mon hens, and chickens can be raised for table much cheaper. Their eggs are delicious. The average chicken thief will not brave coop or yard guard ed by guinea fowls, with their' discor dant voices and aggressive tempera. Forage Crops. A writer in the Ohio Farmer gives the following computations of four crops which he grew for fodder last season, computed from weighing the product of one square rod in each field, taking what he thought was the best part of the field, a method perhapB as fair for one as the other: Soy beans, medium greon, 0 tons green forage per acre; wliippoorwill cowpeas, 124 tons per acre green forage; Early Or ange sorghum, 18 tons green forage per acre, and red cob ensilage corn, 31 tons per acre of green forage. All had a moderate dressing ot stable manure per acre and each the same amount of commercial fertilizer. Covrpenn n a Soil Improver. The depleted, wornout lands of New England need some crop that will not only add plant food to the soli, but that will renovate these lands by re juvenating and adding lifo to them, says C. W. Burkctt in New England Homestead. The wornout soils of New England and the northern states are lacking In productivity primarily be cause they contain so little organic mntter. Cowpeas can be grown and left to die on the ground or be plowed under, which Is better, thus Improving the soil In a marked degree. Winter Care of Calves. Fall calves should be kept In a warm, dry, light stable and fed sklmmllk un til the following spring, says New Eng land Homestead. Sklmmllk, however, should not form the entire ration. Oil meal is needed in place of the butter fat removed and some crushed oats and w heat bran to make growth. Si lage, If you have it or sweet clover bay should be given dally in small quantities. Calves for beef may have some eornmeal. Two Plat Litters a Year. Why should a hog man be content with one litter of pigs a year when be can have two at no more cost? asks Form and Ranch. Encourage the two litter a year habit In sows, and they will live longer, do better and be pro ductive at a greater age than one litter a year sows. It is the opinion of many experienced hog men that sows will bring more pigs at a litter twice a year than once a year. Wheat Screenings For Sheep. 1 In some feed tests carried on at the Utah station with sheep to determine the comparative value of wheat, frost ed wheatand wheat screenings It was shown that it is more profitable to feed the screenings than cither good or frosted wheat cost considered. ' Feed For the Brood Sow. ' A brood bow should be fed a variety, such as bran, roots, etc. Corn is fat tening and should Dot bo fed In large 1 quantities. It promotes neither tbe growth of the sow uor tbe pigs. Some jgreen vegetable food should be given In winter. 1 ., . : ' Valnoaot Stable BlanVets. .

It Is a little gratifying to reflect that, however the man of today may com pare with his ancestors of bygone cen turies in physique and morals, his dress la much more moderatst and In expensive, even tf It Is leas pictur esque, than theirs. It Is true that here and there one may find some fooUsn young man whose taste in dress Is as extravagant as that of any "buck" of the days of tbe Georges. There la, for instance, a son of a well known peer who has the reputation of never wearing a suit twice. He has a wardrobe ot waist coats of all tbe colors of the rainbow, ranging ii uui a Aigut wu. .ywswu isi with sliver stars to a deep green satin"! with buttons of eighteen carat gold. each of which Is adorned with the painted face of a beautiful woman. Another wealthy aristocrat la credit ed with having as many suits and uni forms as there are days In the year and with spending on his tailor's bill a sum which would pay the yearly salary of a minor cabinet minister. But such men are modestly array ea compared with the dandles of many a past century. The easl of Northum berland who lived In the latter part of the fourteenth century boasted no few er than sixty suits of cloth of gold alone, and the btohob of Ely of that time had a change of raiment for ev ery day of the year. Much later, in Queen Mary's tune. tbe wardrobe of a bishop might have been the envy of Solomon for the va riety and costliness of its contents, and even a simple village pnest, accoraing to Fuller, wore "a vestment of crimson satin, a vestment of crimson velvet, a stole and fanon set with pearl, gowns faced with taffetas, etc." In the days of Chaucer fashionable men wore clothes as many colored as Joseph's coat so that "while one leg would be a blase of crimson the other would be tricked out in green or blue or yellow, without any regard to har mony or contrast" Even as late as tbe middle of the eighteenth century a dandy would deck himself In "a vtvld green coat a waist coat of scarlet yellow breeches and blue stockings." and tbe gentleman of a few years utter wore, among slml lar sartorial vagaries, "a coat of light green, with sleeves too small for the arms and buttons too big for tbe sleeves; a pair of Manchester fine stuff breeches, without money In their pock ets; clouded silk stockings, a club of hair behind larger than the bead that carries It a bat of the size of a six. Denco on a block not worth a far thing." At one fashionable epoch our ances tors, to quote the words of a quaint chronicler, "would weare clothes so tlghte to ye skin that it might weU be conceived they wore no clothes at all," and at another they would wear them "so voluminous that a single suite might well have afforded rayment for a whole famine, and so stuffed out with feathers that, of a verity, their wearers resembled nothing so much as walking sackes. At another period It was the gro tesque fashion to combine on one per son the dress of aU the countries of Europe the hat would be Spanish, the coat French, tbe trousers Turkish, and so on so that the wearer waa a "walk ing epitome of the dress of a conti nent" At one time shoes would be worn with square toes of such width that a royal proclamation was Issued limiting tbe width to six Inches, and these shoes were succeeded by others which came to the' finest of points at the toes. In Henry II.'s time shoes with points two feet long were worn by the fash ionables, and In tbe reign of Henry IV. these points bad grown to such an Inordinate length that In order to be able to walk at all it was necessary to attach the tips to the knees by chains, which were of gold or silver, while the tops of the shoes were carved with all kinds of fantastic designs. Ia the early part of the eighteenth century It was a common thing for a man of fashion to spend several hours a day with his valet among the many quaint operations being "the starching of the beard and the proper perfuming of garments, the painting' of the face and anointing with oils, tinctures, Quin tessences and pomatums." It Is even said that some ot the dandies ot the time bathed In wine and milk 'Tor the preservation of their complexions and the rejuvenation ot their energies." London Tit-Bits.
