Bolen has made a successfu experiment of raising tobacco th ii season on good cotton land. Mr. Bolen tried half an acr< and it will yield 500 pouuds ol tobacco which will bring from 20-ti 50 cents per pound.

Several of Mr. Bolen 's neighbor have decided to try tobacco'am plant less cotton' and our Georgi farmers would do well to pay mor attention to this mouey makinj crop.

Refuge Heartlessly Refused Two Hundred Women and Child ren, Suffering: from Hun ger, Exposure and Ex haustion. FIRE ISLAND, N. Y., Sept, 12. The people here appear to have lost all sense of humanity. They have been appealed to, in the name of God, to permit the oldest woman and the youngest children to be taken to the hotel for the night, that their liveB might be saved, and have refused with brutal jeers. Events since, nightfall display a degree of cruelty well nigh incon ceivable. After the Cepheus came to anchor, two police officers rowed to the landing and asked that a letter be taken to Dr. Wright. The mob refused to allow the letter to come ashore, and drove the police officers off with threats. As it was getting dark and no satisfactory answer had arrived from the first boat a second boat put off from the steamer, rowed by two police. In the stern stood a tall gray-haired man, Robert Thompson. As he approached the knding the mob gathed threaten ingly. He asked to be heard in behalf of the 200 women and children on the steamer, who were suffering from hunger, exposure and exhaustion. After several minutes of insult ing retorts by the mob, he was al lowed to speak. He said the men on the steamer did not ask toland. The young women would remain, if necessary but the old women, some of them grandmothers, and tho children, suffering not for com forts, but for decent care, should be allowed to land. They would be returned to the steamer after a night's rest and one meal. HEARTLESS LAWYER REID. Attorney W. P. Reid answered that if the captain of the steamer would come ashore, the people for whom he spoke would consider the request. Mr. Thompson returned to the; steamer afterward, saying he would attempt to bring the captain back with him. It was dark, except the stars, when the boat was seen pull ing back to the landing, a tall, spare figure was Been, standing in the bow. "It is Senator McPherson, pf New Jeidey," called out Mr. Thomp son, who was Btill in the stern. Senator McPherson stood silent for some moments, lookine at the mob. "Citizens," said the Senator at last, "the captain declines to come ashore. If you will give me your injunction papers I give you my word of honor I will give them to him, and he will accept them as legally served." Attorney Reid simply replied: "The captain must come ashore." "If we can bring him ashore, will you agree to let these suffer ing, innocent, helpless people land?" "They cannot land !" yelled the mob. The Senator turned his face up to the mob, and in an impressive voice said : "I appeal to you, men, IN THE NAME OF GOD, not to be longer led into heartless cruelty by this attorney, but to give your consent that these women and children can be taken from this boat-where they have noth ing to eat, no place to sleep ; where the common decencies of life can not be longer observed; where their surroundings are foul from sea sickness. Wait before you an swer. Think what you will be do ing. Remember your own wives and children. Be manly. Do not bring an everlasting disgrace upon your names. Be men." "THEY CANNOT LAND." It did not seem as if human beings, capable of understanding the language in which they were being addressed, could withstand the appeal ; but the crowd stood ther?, sullen and silent, while the lawyer said : "They cannot land, If we permit them we will give away our case." "They cannot land," the mob chimed in. Senator McPherson sank down in the boat, overcome. When the boat waB rowed back to the steamer, the newspaper men who had listened to this at once went to every member of the Islip health board who was present, and begged that this horrible crime be not committed. At 8:30 o'clock a meeting of the board was held and a resolution wat passed that if Dr. Vought would go with Lawyer Reid to the stearne] and see that the injunction papere were served, the board would allo^v food and blankets to, be taken aboard. Dr. Vought was made tc promise that if this was allowee no attempt would be made to lane passengers. The excitement did not abate ir the slightest degree after the Cepheus had withdrawn to th? stream. The crowd remained or the dock, uttering threats anc swearing that the people on th< excusi?n vessel could not beforf they would be allowed to land.. AN ORDER FROM THE GOVERNOR. This dispatch was received a about 10:30 tonight : Albert M. Darling, Sheriff o Suffolk County-Guard the pro perty of the State, and see that tb hotel furnishes food to the passen gers on the Cepheus. Summon al good citizens to aid you. Thos passengers are in want of food There is no danger from cholers The only danger is that they may be driven to distraction. Appeal to the manhood of the people. I know they will aid you. Tfcey are human. Plenty of relief will arrive tomorrow. [Signed] ROSWELL P. FLOWERS. Condition of Cotton. WASHINGTON, September 10. The cotton report of the depart ment of agriculture indicates a lower condition of the crop than in any September since 1883 : The average is 76-8., against 82.7 last year, and 85.5 in 1890. The decline since August 1st exceeds five points. The state averages are: Virginia, 75: North Carolina, 76 ; South Carolina, 77 ; Georgia. 79"; Florida, 66; Alabama, 72: Mississippi, 72; Louisiana, 76; Texas, 81 ; Arkansas, 79 ; Tennes see, 79. On the Atlantic coast the rain fall of the season has not been excessive, but it has been unequally distributed. Heavy rains in the early season, followed by a drought lator, have caused the shedding of forms and leaves. Premature ripening and rotting of the bolls, delayed planting, slow germination and obstructed cultivation were the results of a season of excessive precipitation, making the crop universally late. On the gulf coast the rainfall has been above the normal except in Texas and Arkansas, and the condition is consequently wofst east of the Mississippi. In August local droughts were injurious on portions of the Atlantic coast dreath, in some districts of Arkansas and in Texas, rust, the natural result of these conditions, is reported quite generally in the districts of heavy and irregular rainfall.' Considerable complaint is made of insect depredations. The boll worm has infested gulf coast region and is seen in Georgia, but it is little known in the more northern belt. The caterpillar is noted in Texas and at a few points in the other states. Some complaint is made of grasshoppers and of hemipterous insects, popularly knowu as sharpshosters. A little girl was sitting in a room where her grandfather was having a nap. Presently he woke up, and rubbed the arm upon which his head had rested, saying jokingly that his arm had been sleeping as loudly as he had. Then the little girl looked up and said, "Oor arm, may be, was asleep, but oor nose was very awake," Jess : I thought you hated Jack and yet you have accepted him Bess : I did hate him, but he pro posed under an umbrella, and said if I refused him he would let the raindrop on my new hat.
