RADISHES IN CONNECTICUT
JUST GROW LIKE ALL FORTY
BRANFORD. t'ON'N'., July 16. W A.
Bryant's red radishes grew so fast that
one burst open with a noise that mtfde
the guests of the Montomore house
think one of the aeroplanes from the
Branford River hangars had struck the
roof. Vice President H. J. Horne, of
the New Haven road, was so startled
in his adjacent cottage that he jumped
out of bed, thinking his fast motor
boat had exploded. He landed with
both bare feet on a large sheet of fly
paper and rolled heels over head down
the stalls and over the descending
lawn into Long Island sound, up to
his neck, before he could tear loose.
The soil In this section is said to
excel even that of Winsted, and the
radishes hereabouts grow high stems so
rapidly that they fall over and smother
the poultry.
Up and Down
Peachtree
Prayer Too Much For
Bad Bill Trimble.
Dr. S. R. Belk, of the Park Street
Methodist church, likes a good story
as well as any man. and tells one
well, too. He sprang this one a day or
two ago, explaining carefully that he
was not the hero of the tale:
"This long-limbed, double-jointed
fellow I’m speaking of had a call to
ths ministry,"said Dr. Belk. “He lived
,ip in the mountains, and while he
didn't have much education he was well
informed on the sins of his neighbors
and din't mind telling about them in'
public. The day he preached his first
sermon he fairly ripped the hide off al
most every family in the county. Oh,
he was eloquent, and interesting, too.
“When the sermon was over, Big Bill
Trimbit', the bad man of the neighbor
hood, aproached the new preacher.
" Brother .Teems,’ he said, 'l'm goin’
to lick you to a frazzle just as soon as
you git out'n this church house.’
"Brother .Teems was a little bit wor
ried, but he didn't show it. He just
asked time for the congregation to
leave, so there wouldn't be any disturb
, ance.
"When everybody was gone but Big
Bill and the preacher, the latter turned
round and said:
" Brother Trimble, 1 11 have to ask you
to wait just a leetle bit longer, while I
offer a short prayer.’
"Bill sat down by the door and the
parson began to pray.
"'Oh, Lord,' he said, I hopes You’ll
take kier of your servant and watch
over his wife and little ehillun. I've
got to tight a battle—Oh. Lord. Big
Rill Trimble has fo’ced hit on mo, and
I hit may be I'll hev to kill him. iso
| watch over my folks if I hev to go to
jail. Amen.’
"Then the parson got up and came
down the aisle. But Big Bill's seat was
empty and Bill was half a mile down
the big road and still going.
"All of w hich goes to show the power
of prayer."
