Thinning of fruit will be necessary .-: this year, but in others, no ddtibt, more fruit has set than the trees or vines ought to carry, lt is hardly possible to thin apples where one has a large orchard, though in some cases it is done; but one may thin the fruit ont pear, peach, and cherry trees, and grape vines. It is said by many thal; ??T WH?; and especially by those who have but a few trees, and wish to raise good fruit. There will, of course, be fewer specimens Rafter a part are picked off, but there will be as much in weight and measure as though nono had been taken off, and those that remain will be larger, fairer, better flavored, and if sold will bring more money than the whole would if they had been left to grow. There are other advantages, for good fruit will find a market when poor, small fruit cannot be sold. If the whole is left, the tree or vine may be seriously injured, if not ruined, in its attempts to carry too large a crop. We have known novices in fruit growing to leave three or four times as many bunches of grapes on advine as it ought to carry, because, as they said, "it seemed too bad to destroy them," with the result of not getting a single ripe grape, and also of nearly or quite ruining their vines. Perhaps no fruit-bearing plant suffers more from an over crop than the grape. The thinning of all fruit should be done in good season-as early AS possible after the fruit has reached some size, so as to be able to tell which it is better to leave and which to take off. Such a course will eave the tree or vino somewhat, and the fruit that is left will be all the better. No exact rule can be laid down for the doing of his work ; it must be a matter of judgment. If the tree or vine ii young, perhaps bearing ?for the first time, though it may {iot set very mnch fruit, yet it may set a good deal more than it ought to be allowed to ripen. Better have one good pear or bunch of grapes than three or four none of which are eatable. Too much work I Yes, it is a good deal of work ; but what of that if it only pays? If any one has any doubts ou this latter point, lot him try it for himself and note results. We knew a careful cultivator of the pear who not only thinned his fruit, but thinned his trees and kept the new wood pinched back - as it came oat, as carefully as he did his gape vines, so right brances with spurs all up and down upon which he allowed only a proper number of the fairest specimens to grow. He alway obtained a very high price, for his fruit, and always found a ready market. While all may not be able to do as this man did, it shows what may be done with eare.

Governor, Tillman Has Givei South Carolina One Like, it at Anderson. In an extremely picturesque oh town in Eastern. Mississippi,, ie i new and progressive college, thi first of its kind in the Un i tee States. The Industrial Institute: ft.nc College on Washington . Armut in the town of Columbus! - Wei does this school deserve :iti connection with two sud illustrious names, for as Columbui discovered a new geographical world, Washington a new political so I believe the Industrial Institute and College is destined to open to woman a new educational world. The interest, love, anc pride of the Mississippians centei in this great enterprise, and fe? strangers ever visit Columbus without making a tour of inspection through the college. Let us follow such a party ol visitors, thus gaining a glimpse of this great school. Ii-is a bright December morning, and as wc approch the building the first object to become visible is the college clock in dormitory towel which is now striking half past eight. A square or two furthei brings to our view an imposing scene. Facing the broad avenue are two stately brick structures, with a smooth green lawn in front, a lovely flower garden to the back and stretching toward the east-a sylvan park of many acres. . The lawn and-flower garden are tastefully ornamented and kept in perfect. order by the -.patient efforts and untiring energy of th? matron, Mri; Edwards. Approaching the Main Building by a wide gravel walk, ' and entering the President's office neai the door, we are delivered into the charge, perhaps, of a member ol the senior class, Miss Rhoda Carr, a dignified, intelligent student who makes our visit to the College interesting and instructive. Soon after our entrance at 8:30 wo hear a whistle blown. At once the first chords of a march ? arc struck. Now long lines ol students, all dressed in navy blue file out of the lecture rooms ic perfect silence ; nothing is ., heard save the regular tramp of. mor,e than three hundred pairs of feet keeping time to the music. Thc presence of so many earnest girli cannot fail to arouse our. inter?s I at once ; we follow the ? advancing files to the Chapel which occupier the second and third stories oj the main building, and seats about fifteen hundred. The stained glass windows cast a dreamy light making the artistic interior of thc Chapel a delightfbl scene, but thc most beautiful sight of all is thc assemblage of three huadrec ea rnest, intelligent faces into which we look from our visitors' 'seat on the rostrum. We perceive even at the first glance that we arc not in au ordinary "girls' school'1 the oldest students of most auch schools are rarely more than six teen or seventeen, while here few are under sixteen, and the mern, bera of the senior class,, almost without exception, nineteen, twenty, or older. This fact is significant. Ai schools where the majority grad? uate at sixteen or seventeen, we know a thorough collegiate course is impossible. While we are will? ing to claim much for women we do not consider them auch prodi gies that they can acquire by six teen what their brothers cannot without earnest endeavor gain till they are twenty or more. But to return to our visit. If we are distinguished, one of our party will now be invited to address the students. If the speaker be a true champion of womankind, and speak true, manly words-or wo manly words, as the case may be -he will be repaid with responsive glances expressing enthusiasm, sympathy, and gratitude. If the words are dull and narrow, thc speaker will still be greeted with profound silence for these girls are taught to be good listener? even to dull speakers. I have often smiled over a speaker's satisfac? tion at eliciting auch attention when poor man, this was the re suit of eau BPS he did not ?ora] hend. After Chapel ,t exercises, ire conducted through the corri leading to the dormitory, the ot large brick building previon mentioned... We ? glance into i of the rooms and find it neat, cc fortably, though simply furnish and heated by steam, as are all College - buildings. ' We are n shown the immense dining- roe china closets, pantry and kitch Every thing is spotlessly" cle and the extensive cooking propa t ion? are carried onwi th unifron system- due. to the "excellent mi agement of Mrs.'Edwards.

On the second.and third' flo t lie re is li tt lo i n tere* t u B, but reaching the fourth Misa- C proudly shows us ihe'bright pre 11 furnished Young Woman's Chi tian Association Hall and 1 Society Hall.. We are now told the wonderful good done by t Y. W. C. A., how 'girls are h< changed from thoughtless a dents, to earnest Christian worke how, in this college, tho Christi life is developed vhand in ha with the intellectual. But Mi Carr is too; modest' to tell us tl she is the faithful President the Association. We pais? on to fbe^ociety H? What a source of pride is this the students !

Tl is the joint property of the Peyt and Callaway-Orr ' Literary ? cietios* The former : is named i Mrs. Peyton, whbm all love ai reverence for her great a: unselfish efforts.to'secure the ci lege for the girls.

We now enter Miss Orr's roo where we find the,sophomore cia reciting Anglo-Saxon. We a gratified to find here a genuh English course which trains tl student to use accurate and e: . press ive language, acquaints hi with the great masters of En gi ii Literature, and gives a historic) knowledge of the structure an growth of language.. W. happe to be present on a lecture day ac indeed have a feast. As we liste to the beautiful language of tl leeture expressing such depth au originality of thought, such know edge and each noble sentiment we do not wonder at the student enthusiastic. admiration of Mit Orr. We now enter the Chemici lecture room and Laborator which are well equipped and affoi opportunities of gaining a pract cal knowledge of this Science n< to be had at any other bouther College for girls. Under the efl cient guidance of Miss H. M. Ir niche, this department also is r< markably thorough and accurate From there we are led to the Lati department in charge of Miss Mir nie Pasley, a graduate of the Inst tution and an honor to ber aim mater. She is sucha fine Lat in ii that under her instruction pupil see a new beauty and meaning i this important study. The next room is that of mei tal and moral Philosophy. Hei we were introduced to Mrs. Peytoi the lady so loved and honored b i Mississippi girls; we are e i charmed with her gentle bear in i and appearance that we could nc doubt Miss Carr's judgment, eve , if we were so inclined, when sh . tells what a power for good are th . precepts of Moral Philosoyhy a taught by this Christian womai , whoso life enforces her words.

Cotto's body stiffened and the straps made deep impressions in the skin. The current was j tamed oft" and on four times. At the first shock the current was turned off in thirty-two eec o nd s. Ciptto slowly opened his eyes and looked at Father Mito, with what s?eruod a reproachful expression. His handk moved, and there was no doubt in the minds of the wit nesses that he was not only alive, but conscious. The signal, was again giveu by den Browne, and once more body stiffened up and strained e ?trapsV The current was on about twelve, seconds, fi it was turned off a, second % Cotto's body settled down e chair, limp, and at first ap intly lifeless.

J time, Dr. Irving applied the steth oscope to the heart, and Dr. Abbott, who had been keeping the official time, felt the pulse. They shook their heads aud stepped back. The fingers began to move again, and there waa plenty of evidence that Cotto was still alive. For the fourth time the warden gave the signal, and for the fourth time the current was turned off until-the face of the man has turned a purplish black, and the exposed part of the right leg was of the same color. This time the current com pie ted its work, for when c it waa,: turned off the physicians found no signs ?f life. Dr. Irving in answer to a question of the representative of the United Press, admitted there were Indications of life after the third shock. The1 official time shows ?that the current was first turned on at 10:45.20 and that the last shock waa given at 10:48.03, or, in other, words, it required about three minutes to kill the man. When life had been declared extinct, two of the keepers linstrapped the body. It was placed on an autopsy table, which had been brought in from the adjoin ing room. The autopsy was performed by Drs. Irving and Abbott. Very few witnesses remained for the autopsy ; most of them took early trains - for their homes. v Cotto's body waa not claimed by his relatives. It will be buried in quicklime this afternoon. Cotto's brother and cousin were here Saturday, but they said they did not want the body. Their only anxiety was about $54 which Cotto had went he was captured by the police. Electrician Davie says the voltage at the first contact was 1,780. After that it varied from 1,600 to 1,700.

Let the Good Work Go On. MR. EDITOR: Please allow me space in your valuable paper for a few thoughts from Sophia. First, the anti-Tillman menjhave found the right name for their lit tle crowd when they call them pelvea "Straightouts." I heard one say that he was one of the "Straightouts," and the thought struck me at once that ho had found the right name at last, for they are straightout of the Demo cratic party, and have gone clear over, clean out of sight of their old friends and neighbors. I claim to be a Tillman man from the tip of my toe to the top of ray head, and it gets my dander up when I gee the Straightouts writing so many things that have not a par ticle of truth in them. I have been watching the Governors for ten years, and B. R. Tillman is the only one who has ever done anything that I ever heard of, ex cept to pardon one or two old ne groes out of thepenitentiary. All men who are willing to tell the truth must say that the present governor has done many things that are good for tue Stale, but these Straightouts and antis won't admit it. But they had just as well give up the ghost. They may talk and they may tattle, but Till man has the rope and I'd like to see any of them help themselves. It waa very funny to me when I heard that the twelve delegates met on the 5th of March in the court house to try to get the run ning start on the present admin istration. Ha, ha, ha! It makes Tue laugh now to think about it. No wonder Stan Ryan sang "Ham burg ladies, your cakes all dough." It is all dough, too.

We look eagerly forward to the coming of Friday as it is on that day, we are greeted with the dear old ADVERTISER. It seems that the matrimonial fever is raging in our vicinity now. Two marriages have taken place within a week, and more are likely to follow soon. On Tues day last at 1 o'clock Mr. Freeman Taylor of this neigborhood, and Mrs. Alice Seekinger, a charming young widow of Augusta, were happily united in the holy bonds of wedlock, the Rev. Lansing Burrows officiating. Refresh ments having been served they left immediately for his home near Morgana, where they were given a nice reception at his mother's. The next night a party of boys gave them a grand serenade with tin pans, plow hoes, bugles and bells. Now, Mr. Editor, don't you know they made a racket?

In case of the ordinary nervous headache, from which women suffer so much, says an authority, remove the dress waist, knot the hair high up on the head, out of the way, and while leaning over the basin, place a sponge soaked in hot water, as hot as can ;be borne, on the back of the neck. Repeat this many times, also applying the sponge behind the ears, and, if the assertion of the writer is not a mistaken one, in many cases the strained muscles and nenes that have eaused so much misery will be felt to relax and smooth themselves out deliciously, and very frequently the pain promptly vanishes in consequence. Every women knows the aching face and neck generally brought home from a hard day's shopping, or from a long round of calls and afternoon teas. She regards with intense dissatisfaction the heavy lines drawn around her eyes and mouth by the long strain on the facial muscles, and when she must carry that worn countenance to some dinner party or evening's amusement, it robB her of all the pleasure to be had in it. Cosmetics are not the cure, nor bromides, or the many nerye sedatives to be had at the drug shop, Here, again, the sponge and hot water are advised by the writer quoted, bathing the face in water as hot --- " .ui ni .iiiwaaaBMrL.

The "Smudge** System. which saved the wheat from 1 damage by August frosts in the Red river valley last year. His account of it will show what may be done in Georgia. "They have frosts in Minnesota at the time when wheat is in the . dough," said he "and the damage to the crop is often very great. I got the idea of protecting grain in conversation with an old Swedish farmer, who told me that crops had been saved in his country in this way. The frost warnings were sent out from Washington, and I got the railroad companies to have the telegram sent to all the stations in the Red river valley, which is twenty to twenty-five miles wide and extends two-thirds the length of Minnesota, through part of North Dakota and up into Manitoba. The country is as level as a floor and very suitable to the use of smudges. "A smudge is a smothered fire. At the bottom, in the centre, some dry, combustible material is placed and set on fire. This is covered with two or three wagon loads of dampened straw, or some material tfiat will make the fire burn slowly and emit a great volume of smoke. "Four smudges on a quarter section of 1G0 acres wer.5 sufficient to keep the country covered with smoke and ward off the frost. The smoke acts like a cloud in reflecting back to the earth the heat lots by radiation. So the temperature is kept up and frost prevented. "Th?3 plan might be pursued in the case of fruit, where the area to be protected is much smaller. Pina straw is one of the best things you could use in making smudges, and the cost would be trilling. With the frost warnings Mr. Morrill will send out, there will be little trouble in protecting fruit, unless there should ba some such freeze as we had last week." Wemyss is pronounced Weems.
