Hartwell Sun: Fred Wiebens dropped
into the Sun office Tuesday, and gave us a
drink from a bottle containing water from
the river Jordan and from one containing
water from the Dead sea. The Jordan
water was sweet and clear, hoviDg been
distilled to keep it from becoming impure.
Mr. Wiebens says it was muddy before dis
tilled. The Dead sea was acrid with salt.
The bottles were the same size a :d con
tained the same quantity, but the Dead sea
water weighs two or three times as much
as the Jordan water. He showed us some
some Sodom apples, from the vicinity of
the Dead sea, which are about the
size of a crabapple and of yellow color.
They contain no seed, aud when they decay
the inside becomes an ashy powder. He
also showed us a small bottle of pure olive
oil made in Jerusalem. It has a pleasant
taste and a greenish hue, and occupies a
prominent place in the cuisine of the east.
Henderson, of the agricultural de
.returQed to Atlanta Saturday
in cJinUi to °- H- Cochran’s plantation
la Campbell county, The purpose of Mr.
Henderson's visit was to see a pbeno nenal
acre of cotton. He says that what he saw
fully repaid him for the journey. At the
beginning of the season Mr. Cochran put
aside one acre of very ordinary land to try
an experiment. He divided 300 pounds of
commercial fertilizer into two parts. With
rone part he covered the ground and the
other he mixed with the seed when planting
if. Great care was also taken in preparing
the land. Asa result of his labor Mr.
Cochran has gathered two full bales an l
has enough cotton still on tne acre un
picked to make another bale. This was
done in spite of the fact that he only ob
tained three-fourths of a stand, and the
caterpillars also did great damage. Mr.
Henderson said that in his judgment four
full bales would have been made but for
the drawbacks mentioned. Mr. Cochran
has .500 acres in his plantation, which are
probably more perfectly cultivated than
any in the state.

While on their way from the English
colony to Gainesville, Wednesday morning,
Mr. Gilmour and daughter narrowly escaped
serious injury by being thrown from their
buggy. They had driven within the city
limits, and were coming up University
street, when the horse became frightened
and began to run. He ran up on the side
walk on the east side of the street, running
into and tearing up the fence and demolish
ing the buggv. He ran but a short distance
before Mr. Gilmour was thrown out, from
which he was pretty badly shaken up and
bruised, though not seri usly. Miss Gil
mour stayed in quite a time after her father
had been thrown out, struggling bravely to
stop the horse, which, however, she was un
able to do, and was finally thrown out of
the vehicle, but was not hurt. The buggy
was smashed to pieces, but the horse was
soon caught.
Mrs. Lola Hunter, who was arrested at
Fort Myers two weeks ago, charged with
the murder of George Milman of Fort
Meade, was once employed in Mr. Leßaron’g
office in Jacksonville. Suspicion rested
upon her, owing to sereral imprudent re
marks which she had made. She was Mr.
Miltnan’s nearest neighbor, and he boarded
with her, and was said to ba her betrothed.
Mrs. Hunter was a Miss Lula Falana, of
Greek and Spanish descent. Her father is
the lighthouse keeper at Lake George,
and she nas numerous relatives in that
vicinity and at Alayport. She was sepa
rated from her husband, Sam Hunter,
some years ago and his whereabouts are
unknown. When last heard of he was in
Key West. She has three interesting chil
dren. The oldest, a girl of perhaps 11
years, is staying with her grandparents and
the two younger ones are with the mother.
Mrs. Hunter is a rather prepossessing woman
of about 30 year*. She is very dark, and of
medium hight; she is high-tempered and
passionate, but to her friends she was
goodness personified. It is hardly possible
that she committed the orime, and it is
believed that other parties were more in
terested In Milman’s destruction than she
could possibly have been.
THE BUSY ANTB.
How They Live and Worlt and Build
Their Dwellings.
Freni the American Agriculturist.
Many of our boys and girls have, no
doubt, often wondered why the ants are
such rapid and continuous travelers, always
on the go, and always going, seemingly, for
a purpose. So they do. Let ns watch them.
Here th ey are, on the rose basket. What
tori Their breakfast, perhaps. Just watch
them. See how they tickle the aphides, or
green fly, with the antennae, in order to
make them yield a saccharine liquid of
which ants are very fond. This is a sys
tematic work with them. They farm out
insects of various kinds to feed upon,
aud as systematically as a farmer does
liis stock. Iu the green house they take the
young scale insects—-a most troublesome
green house pest—and plant them out regu
larly on the leaves, always choosing such
leaves as are the most difficult to clean;and
when the insects are of full size, the ants
extract a juice from them with as much
regularity as a farmer milks his cows. It
is very interesting to watch them at their
work, as one can easily do in the garden,
where nearly every plant has some insect
enemv, which, in its turn, hag an enemy
that destroys.
The ant is proverbial for its industry; its
ingenuity is quite as remarkable, aud its
habits most singular. Did you ever examine
an ant hill—a subterranean city closely
populated * In this little city three classes
of ants dwell—the females, the males, and
the common people, which have no sex.
These do all the work of the community;
the males and females perform no labor.
The homes of the ant are constructed
with much art; little galleries terminate, at
intervals, in more extensive ones, supported
by pillars. All this is done with earth and
a slime which they secrete, by means of
which the working ants make a mortar.
When the female ants are ready to de
posit their eggs they wander about through
their palace and let fall at hazzard their
little eggs; the worxers pick them up and
gather them together iu heaps in the
places which separate the galleries. The
larvue are rnon hatched, and are not long
before they spin themselves little cocoons.
When the moment comes for their issuing
from their confinement the workers tear the
cocoons and thus facilitate the operation;
then they carefully extend and smooth the
wings of the males and females. From
these eggs are born, in fact, not only ants
of both sexes, but the workers also, which
have no wings. During several days food
is brought to the newly born, and then they
are allowed to go out to oommeuce life’s
work for themselves.
