Wife Murderer’s Pray ers Annoy Prisoners in Atlanta Jail Thoroughly repentant, of his bloody deed, uml with his spirits in a pronounced state of gloom and despondency, F. M. Alains, the Nownuti wife slayer, w ho is held prisoner in the Tower for sate keeping, constantly pleads for Di vine forgiveness, and declares, in despairing tones, when he is for given he wants to die. The prisoner has requested Jail er Fain to remove him from the other prisoners and place him in solitary confinement that lie may 1 letter atone for his crime. He believes he will receive forgive ness quicker if permitted to en velop himself in perfect solitude. This has not boon done, however, as it is feared that, in his present condition, Alums might do harm to himself in a moment of despair and frenzy. Alains spends practically the whole of hiH time in reading the Bible and in prayer. He prays aloud, giving vent to his feelings of remorse in long and continued supplications for mercy from on high. This praying is said to have reached such an extent ns to annoy the other prisoners, con fined in the vicinity of Alums’ cell, and formal complaint bus been registered with the jail :ui- thorit ies.—Atlanta News.

The writer of this article is the origi nator of the cabbage growing industry on the Carolina Coast. I grew my first cabbage for market iu the year 1H68. From a beginning of one-half acre, the bnsiness has increased nntil at the pfea- ont time there are over 4,000 acres of cabbage grown eacli season in this ter ritory. To grow a successful crop the first and most iin[>orttiut thing is to se- core plants that are grown from high grade send, as no amouut of care, ferti lizer or cultivation can make a good crop, if the plants used are grown from inferior seed. You cannot judge from i the apiiearanoe of the plant, as all young cabbage plants look the same. The bet ter class of seed growers select their stock very carefully, removing from the field all heads of cabbage ttiat are not perfect. Some seasons they have to cut out two-thirds of their plants and do not save their seed from more than one- third. Seed selected in this way will cost from $2.50 to $3.00 per pound. Oth er seed-growers allow their entire crop of cabbage to make seed, do not use any care in the selection of seed grown. These seed will cost you from 40 to 80 cents per pound. The oost of the seed is two-thirds of the cost of growing cab bage plants, so you can readily under stand why a plant grower who pays $2.r>0 to $3.00 for his Heed cannot sell yon plants ns oheap as the grower who buys inferior seed at 40 to 00 cents per pound. My thirty-sis years experience has proven to me that it would pay me better to use high grade seed at n cost of $10.00 jht pound, than to use inferior seed if I could get them free. Those who do not mnke a regular business of growing cabbage have Inien iu the habit of setting out their plants in the months of February and March, thinking that the plants do not live if set earlier in the winter. This is a mistake as a plant set in December or .January under the prop er conditions will live just ns well and head much earlier. The following in structions will give the proper method of setting. The Houtli Carolina sea coast, on ac count of locality and climatic condi tions is admirably adapted to the grow ing of hardy open air plants. The plant growers sow their seed iu the open fields in the lute fall from October 20tli to November 13th. These seed germinate quickly and make a very rapid growth for a couple of weeks; by this time the nights start to get cold. The growth of the plants is cliecked, and usually about December 1st to 10th our freezing weather begins, when the plants stop growing entirely. The cold weather lias caused It to become tough and hard, it Is now iu a dormant condition and will remain iu this condition until the latter i>art of February or uutil the spring weather opens up. While iu this condition these plants will stand cold without injury. I have seen my plants covered with ioe and sleet for several days, with the thermometer down to 18 and not be injured at all, while the same plants if they had beeu in a thirifty growing condition aud full of sap would have beeu killed by a heavy freeze or a slight frost. To avoid the dauger of losing your plants you want to buy them while they are dormant,the soouar you do this after December 15th the better. If you have it, select a piece ot aark, medium low, well drained laud, break it up as thoroughly as yon can, then pulverize well with a good clod breaker or harrow. Lay off your rows east aud west, 30 inches apart,with a bull-tongue plow. Make up your bed by throwing two furrows together with a single horse turn plow. Take your plants mid set them 20 inches apart on the south side of the bed, fur enough down, that the top of the bed will be above tlie plant, tliis is done to keep the north and northwest winds from twisting and breaking the small plants. Be sure to set the plants welt down iu the soil, aud see that the entire stem up to the first leaves is iu tlie groond. Tlie earth should be well packed around the plant, it should be packed so firm, that if you take your plant by tlie leaf aud pull the leaves would break off before the plant would pull out. It is understood that you have used plants that are in a dor mant condition. These plants should not lie fertilized at all, until abont two weeks before the regular spring weather opens up. The top of the plants will not grow duriug the winter, but the roots will be growing all the time, About tlifc middle or last of February— or say two weeks before your regular spring weather starts, take a turn plow, or half shovel, aud throw a furrow away from the plants in each alternate row, run tlie furrow close to tlie plant, sow in this farrow fertilizer at the rate of 1,000 pounds to the acre, this fertilizer should a analyze 8 per cent, phosphoric acid. 7 per cent, ammonia, and 5 per We Risk It Druggists Who Sell Dr. Miles' Nervine Agree, If It Fails, To Refund Cost.

Bryan and Parker. Alton B. Parker and William Jen- niugs Bryan met Wednesday for the first time, but this meeting of the two distinguished defeated candidates does not seem to have been regarded as hav ing any political significance. When Mr. Bryau calls at the White j House his conversation with Mr. Roose-j velt is considered of much importance ] politically. When lie meets Judge Parker the affair is treated as a social happening of no general public con sequence. Yet it was not so long ago that Jndge Parker was commonly looked upon as the new Moses who was to lead the Democratic party out of the wilderness, even if he were defeated. He was to be the party leader. Nothing has been heard from the Jndge politically since election, but Mr. Bryan has been voluble and omnipres ent. He is makiug speeches, delivering lectures, writiug editorials, adviaiug the Democratic Congressmen, conferring with the President and helping to ehape legislation generally. Judge Parker is peggiug away at the law, apparently unconscious of rate bills, or rebates, or tariff schedules, or navy appropriations, or fiscal protec torates. Mi. Bryan, after two defeats, is still in politics up to his chin. Judge Parker, after one defeat, seems to be satiated with statecraft.

After you have put down the fertilizer, throw the furrow hack, with the same plow, being sure to work tlie dirt well up around the plant. About two weeks after this fertilizing, go into the furrow that was not worked before and do the same thing, then keep the alleys well cultivated, using for this purpose a cultivator or diamond toothed harrow. You want to keep the land from tins time on, well oulrivnted and us well open os possible, so that the sun and air can get in and warm up the soil. The cabbage roots that have been grow ing all winter are now strong and will tnko Up the fertilizer rapidly, and the plants will grow much faster, and make you a head of cubbage two to three weeks sooner than if you had set the plants in February or March. This ar ticle applies to the growing of cabbage in Virginia, North and Month Carolina, Georgia aud all of tlie Gulf States. Afraid of Strong Medicines.
