PRKSIDHNT'S SONS.
Ten Out of Twenty Have Won Unu
sual Distinction.
.....I.?...- ....i.
Strictly ?pvMMiB, ami bwuu rv
Presidents' sons, concerning whom
there are available records, have
grown to manhood, says the Ohio
Magazine.
Six Presidents-Washington, Mad
ison, Jackson, Polk, Buchanan, (a
bachelor), and McKinley-loft no
children
Two-Jefferson and Monroe-left
daughtors only. President Johnson
had only two sons, both died before
ho was President, and so do not
count.
The sons of thirteen Presidents
John Adams, John Quincy Adams,
Van Buron, William Henry Harrison,
Tyler, Taylor, Fillmore, Lincoln,
Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Arthur and
Ben jami.? Harrison-ha\e lived to
man's estate Tue HUHS of Cleveland
and Roosevelt are still boys. ,
Of tho twenty-one Presidents' sons
who have reached manhood, nine
have bulked large in the pi Mic eye
on their own account, and all but ono
or two have been solid, substantial
citizens.
The prominent nine are John
Quincy Adama, President, diplomat
ist and representative; Charles Fran
cis A (innis, publicist and statesman;
Robert Tyler, register of the Confed
erate Treasury, Richard Taylor, who
served with distinguished gallantry
on the Confederate side of the civil
war; John Van Buren, prominent In
State politics and just entering na
tional politics wheu he died; Robert
Todd Lincoln, cabinet minister, dip
lomatist and president of <a world
famous corporation; Frederick Dent
Grant, diplomatist and general in thc
army; Henry A. Garfield, lawyer,
banker and professor of politics in a
great university, and James R. Gar
field, .State Senator, United States
Civil Service Commissioner, Commis
sioner of Corporations In the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor, and
now In the Cabinet as Secretary of
the Inter!.r.
Besides the nine who have climb
ed so high, there is John Scott Harri
son, who had the unique distinction
of being the son of one President
and tho father of another. He was a
man of force and of great influence
In his own State, though he was not
a prominent figure in a national
sense. Counting him in--aud he
surely "made good," as the saying is
-ten, or less than half of tho Pre
sidents' BOSS who have roached man
hood aro entitled to bo named on the
roll of honor.
Practically all of the Presidents'
sons who have grown to man's estate
have been good citizens; their lives
have been clean, wholesome, and a
credit alike to their parentage and
their country, while ten of the twen
ty havo won unusual distinction.
lt would be hard to lind any othor
class of prominent citizens whose
sons have doue as well as those of
the Presidents.

HOW THE "INDIANS" DO IT.
Down in Indian Territory it is Also
Hatching thc Frosh Eggs.
Washington, August ?to.-Hart
Momsen, chief of tho Agricultural
Division of the Census Office, ls lu
Indian Territory assisting in taking
tho census, He reports unofficially:
"James Miller has a cornfield where
he raises choice popcorn.
tSo int'usc has b en tho heat of
tho sun that the kernels have ex
ploded on the cob Into fluffy white
Hakes.
"When the sun creeps up 'pop,
pop, pop,' is heard all through the
corn patch
"Miller ls now eating popcorn off
the cob. An ear of ti e. corn may bo
seen in a ?dore window here.
"Desidos popping corn thc sun is
hatching chickens out of crates of
fresh eggs."

J. W. Bell,
SENATORS NOT GENTLEMEN.
Such is thc Itulm:; of President Akin,
of,GeorgIu-Thc Ruling Stands.
(Atlanta Georgian, August 15.)
When is a niau not a gentleman?
When he becomes a member of the
Georgia Senate.
At least this ls President John W.
Akin's ruling, and up to the present
there has been no appeal from the
ruling of the chair on the point.
Unmistakably and without equivo
cation President Akin has ruled that
w'ien a man roachos the Georgia Sen
ate he is no longer a "gentleman,"
regardless of his past standing in
that respect, and that he 1? only "Sen
ator."
Issue arose Tuesday morning when
Senator Hardman was under fire
while discussing his bill for the regis
tration of trained n.urses. Senator
Camp and Knight had offered an
amendment which provided that
"nothing in this act shall be con
strued to prohibit the author of this
bill, Dr. Hardman, from having two
nurses, trained or in process of train
ing, to attend him when necessary."
Senator Knight was In a disputa
tious mood. He launched his shafts
nt tho head of Senator Hardman
adroitly. But he slipped. Not once
did he refer to 1 ii n as "the Senator
from tho Thlrt.v l nlrd," but always
ns "tho gentleman."
Up rose Presider.t Akin and. gavel
ing the body to decorum, sternly pro
mulgated:
"I regret exceedingly to call any
member of this body to task,but when
there ls open violation of tho rules of
this body and of the principles of par
liamentary uses, lt ls my duty to do
EO. I have observed a disposition on
the part of some of the Senators, and
particularly of the Senator from thc
Sixth, to address their remarks to a
member ot this body as 'the gentle
man.' There are no gentlemen in
this Senate. When one ls elected to
(his body and comes upon this floor,
he is no longer 'a gentleman,' und, ;
the rules, hut 'a Senator.' Please ob
serve the proprieties in the future-"
He came mighty near using the ta
booed word, but after a hesitation of
u breath, concluded-'Senators.' "
"Yes, slr," said Senator Knight,
weakly, and sank into his seat with
a look of bewilderment In his eyes.
.INSECTS THAT CAUSE
Enormous Loss to thc Farmers-Do
Not Allow Insects to Multiply.
The potato bug Is estimated to
have cost the farmers of the United
States last year $8,000,000; the array
worm cost $15,000,000; the boll wee
vil $20,000,000; tho San Jose scale
$10,000,000; tho coddling moth and
the grasshopper $50,000,000. Now
here ls an annual loss of $123,000,
000, besides what other Insect pests
have done, and the situation ls grow
ing worse. It will cost a lot of money
to organize the force and knowledge
of science and wage a war of exter
mination on these foes of the farmer.
But it will cost more not to fight.
Some farmers are terribly wrought
up at times at the cost of public sor
vlce In their behalf and to hear them
talk one would conclude they thought
lt would be cheaper to die than to
live. Nevertheless most people pre
fer to live and make the insects die.
The editor of the Southern Cultiva
tor, commenting on the above, says:
Our individual farmer is not pre
pared to lake in the enormous loss
annually caused to our farming in
terests In the I'nlted States from In
sect pests. We aro up against lt. and
lt becomes us to prepare, both by
having the knowledge of the methods
best adapted for their destruction;
and also to equip ourselves with the
necessary spraying apparatus. We
ure confident these figures of the gov
ernment are not over-drawn. And lt
has reached a point that If we would
thrive, these Insects must die. It Is
a wise policy to declare warfare upon
them to extermination if possible. Do
not allow any of these injurious in
sects to multiply upon your farm.
Kill all the potato bugs, harlequin
bugs and coddling moths you can be
fore they multi|iiy in such quantities
as to destroy your crops. Tue fruit
rn?4U should watch for the first ap
pearance of the San Jose scale. In
fact, lt is better to spray to prevent
the seale from getting a start.
Restocking Luke Toxnway.
Lake Toxaway, N. C. August 21).
Over 45,000 rainbow trout were de
posited in Lake Toxaway Friday af
ternoon by the Bureau of Fisheries
of the United States government.
The fish were brought from Johnson,
Tenn., and their average length was
about three and one-half Inches.
I.ak?* Toxaway has been alive with
fish this season and tho lovers of tho
rod and roel have had the sport of
their lives pulling thebeautlfulmoun
tain trout from tho waters of Lake
Toxaway. Several large catche.i have
been made recently, and, taking lt al
together, the fishing this season has
been bettor than ever known before.

SPECIAL J UDOR NAMED.
Hun. Ceo. Johnstone Will Sit at Fall
Terms in Fifth Circuit.
Columbia, August 29.-Governor
Ansel to-day announced the appoint
ment of Hon. George Johnstone, of
Newberry, as special Judge to hold
all fall terms of court In the Fifth
Circuit. In place of Judge James Ald
rich, who is disqualified by reasou of
illness. The selection of Mr. John
stone was made by the Chief Justice,
who, under the law, in such cases,
recommends to the Governor a "per
son learned in the law" to preside as
special judge where another circuit
judge cannot preside in the place of
the judge who is disqualified. The
appointment of Mr. Johnstone takes
effect on the first Monday of Septem
ber and will hold until the first Mon
day In December, and he will preside
at all terms of Common Pleas and
General Sessions Court In this Circuit
during that time.
Th? flr<?t term is that in Richland
county, which opens next Monday,
September 2.
Col. Johnstone, who ls well known
throughout the State as an eloquent
and learned lawyer, ls closely related
to tho Chief Justice by marriage, but
as tho Chief Justice does not actually
make the appointment, merely mak
ing the recommendation, the case ap
parently does not strictly come with
in the provisions of the State Stat
ute, Section 604, of the Civil Code,
which says:
"It shall be unlawful for any per
son at thc head of any department of
this government to appoint to office
or position of trust or emolument,
under his control or management any
person related or connected with him
by consanguinity or affinity within
the sixth degree." While the Chief
Justice does not In such cases make
the appointment the selection of the
special judge by him is binding on
the Governor.
CANDIDATE FOR SOLwITOR.
Something of the History of M. C.
i nn;;, of Anderson.
(A rom tho Anderson Intelligencer.)
It appears that the political pot, so
far as the race for Solicitor of the
Tenth Judicial Circuit is concerned, ls
beginning to boll rather prematurely.
Howevor, If ihe boys prefer a mlle
heat instead of a half milo, it is up to
their wind and i ot ours.
So far, ovly on candidate from our
county has declared himself. Our
friend and townsman, M. C. Long, as
pires to the otice. Naturally, we
would wish him success, because he
is ours. And when we are informed,
when a mere boy, the care of a fam
ily, that of a widowed step-mother
and a half-brother and sister were
thrust, upon him by the death of his
father, whom ho has not only sus
tained comfortably, but educated, ris
ing MfQMlf from a plowboy to that of
Court Stenographer and admitted to
the practice of law, there ls some
thing commendable in him, and we
predict there will bo something doing
ere this and vote counting time.
He was law clerk for three years
In the office of Hunt, Huat & Hunter,
of Newberry, S. C., one of the lead
ing law Arms of upper Carolina, un
der whom he read law, before his ap
pointment to the office of Court Ste
nographer of this circuit, succeeding
the Hon. Wyatt Aiken. He has since
efficiently discharged the duties of
that office.
His knowledge gathered from his
observation as stenographer, and tho
actual working of the Sessions Court
will avail him much In the discharge
of the office of Solicitor, If elected.

THE FA It M EUS PICNIC
At Oakway, in Oconee, mid Oakdale,
in Anderson.
Tokeena, August 23-Special: As
this is the season of picnics and gath
rings of various kinds will give your
many readers a sketch of the most
prom ent ones I have attended this
summer, namely: Oakws.y and Oak
dale, in Anderson County. Oakway
was represented from all portions of
the county and many from anderson
county. We noticed many of the
prominent business men of 'the coun
ty mixing and mingling with the most
important factors of our great coun
ty-the farmers. We were glad to
see it. and hope that they will stand
hand in hand till this great fight that
ls now on will be won. As to the
numbers here I would say there were
near two thousand. We had sp? oches
from Harper, Brackett, Stribling and
Harris, and they were good on all
lines discussed.
The dinner Was all that could be
expected at a bas'ret dinner. The af
ternoon was enjoyed by the young
people at the base ball game. Don't
know how lt ended, as we don't know
the beginning from the ending.
At Oakdale.
Now for the one in Anderson county.
On the morning of the 23d we were
on our way early and arrived at Oak
dale by 9 a. m. Church and school
house are beautifully located among
the sturdy oaks, with a splendid well
of water In the conter, around which
the ladles had a stand to sell ice
cream for tho Improvement of thc
schoolhouse. The stand for the
speakers was decorated with field
crops and flowers appropriate to the
occasion, for lt was strictly a farm
ers* meeting held by the Oakdale
Union. The worthy president, James
Broyles, acted as manager of the
occasion, and lt was an admirable
affair. I have never seen a better
arranged program and more cordial
Invitation extended to all to come
and partake of the bounties of the
land which were placed on the table,
3 x 100 feet, laden from end to end
with the best of the land. v
The Program
on this occasion was as follows, and
was carried out to the letter:
Prayer by Rev. J. R. Earle.
Speech by T. L. Wakefleld.of An
derson. Subject, "The Farmers' i
Union."
Speech by J. E. Boggs, of Plckeus,
after which dinner was served, T. C.
Llgon returning thanks.
After dinner song by five farmers,
Wakefield leading hymn, "Hold the
Fort," after which Hon. J. B. Wat
son took the stand and gave a moBt
eloquent address.
All of the addresses were of the
finest.
After the closing address the table
was filled with watermelons of the
lin est kind and all of the eating! J
nover saw the like. Think of 1,500
persons eating melons at the same
time.
This ended one of the most enjoy
able picnics I have ever attended.

Dear Slr: Here's honesty for you!
North Dakota has a pure paint law.
Prof. Ladd, the State chemist, anal
yzes a certain paint labeled "contains
only lead and zinc and is strictly
pure," and Ands it no lead at all, a
resinous oil, and benzine. It ls, how
ever, full measure and contains no
water.
That's like the man on trial for
killing his grandmother; proved that
ho didn't sot fire to the house.
No lead, but zinc and barytes,resin
ous oil, and ber.zl.ie-"strictly pure
lead and zinc paint!"
Pure paint ls lead-zlnc-and-oll; but
that Isn't all; there is such a thing
as proportion and make. The strong
est paint is Devoe.
North Dakota ls doing a handsome
thing in holding these confidence peo
ple to scorn. She gives their names
as \. ll as their works.
Yours truly,

Giving Awny Young Trees.
(Prom Arboriculture.)
About ten years ago I was in Vir
ginia during the apple-gathering sea
son. Barrels were scarce in the re
gion, every cooper shop and every J???
cooper wa? working night and day to^H
supply the demand for barrels, whlje
men were scouring the mountains
for hickory poles with which to make
hoops. Nearly ail these barrels were
then hooped with hickory poles.
Commission men buying apples
sent to other States and barrels were
hurried Into the apple region In vast
numbers. I saw an entire train of
foriy cars arrive upon one occasion
whl'h was entirely laden with hick
ory-hooped ?lack barrels-320 to
each car, and ten hoops on every bar
rel. Here at one time were seen 12,
800 barrels,for which there had been
sacrificed 64,000 living hickory trees.
In a few years' time these trees
would have been capable of supply
ing 25,000,000 carriage spokes, the
price of which now, *3.. a thousand,
would realize $75.000.
The farmers who permitted this
sacrilege of cutting out the young
hickory which had made rapid strides
toward salable lumber trees received
for this train load of their trees less
than $400.
