Mr. Atkinson Strong-ly Favors It and Urees a Movement to Be rude at Once. To the Editor of Th Journal I was much impressed with your editorial of a few weeks ago relative to our community having a hospital. My trip to Lookout Mountain and pressure of work since, has delayed my writing this communication, which I have had in mind for some time. 1 have been in small and large places which have hospitals, and the concensus of opinion has always been, "how have we gotten on so 1 long without this institution." I A most commendable effort has' been made by Drs.

Monroe and I Stewart in our community. Their hospital has been running now over, six weeks and ten patients have been treated. Four nurses have been kept busy in this hospital, and during this summer there has been some four nurses in our community. Now, I am one of those who believe in glorying more in good sanitation, good water and clean streets than always talking about medicines and sickness but when sickness arises, operations have to be performed, we should have a thoroughly equipped institution to meet this necessity and not let too many suffer before the object is accomplished; I have talked with several regarding the advisability of havirfg a county and city hospital here in Monroe, and they have been favorable in their remarks. The need all admit justifies such an institution.

Let us be done with talking, which is cheap, and get down to the accomplishing of the needed object. I offer the following suggestions, in all modesty, but at the same time realizing the responsibility of every man helping his brother in sickness 1. Let us have a hospital here in Monroe for the city and county where the doctors can treat their private patients, and also a charity ward for those who are not able to pay for medical treatment 2. Let this hospital be controlled by a board of lady managers from the several denominations thereby a united move. 3.

That the doctors would take it month about being on duty at the hospital, caring for the charity patients. 4. That the churches, private par ties, the secret organizations be in vited to help furnish this institution I am aware that it takes money to run a hospital, but it the proper leaders are enlisted in this move ment, I have no fears as to the success of our having a hospital. Of course, there will be objectors, but let us let them be an inspiration only to go forward and an amuse ment only to kick out of the way. I have not thus far said anything regarding our water; we all know its superb qualities and what it is doing for the health of our people.

Let me suggest, finally, that tbe Mayor of our city, as he is our highest officer, call a meeting of the doctors and citizens of our city, inviting representative men from the several townships, with the physicians in those townships, to meet in the court house at some not far distant date. As one who loves Monroe and will ing to help forward any enterprise that makes for the betterment of our community, I remain, Yours sincerely, Geo. II. Atkinson. Seedless Fruits.

Chrlatlu Worker and (vanxcllat. The common belief is that the seedless orange was originally a freak fruit that appeared in Southern California. The real truth is, however, that the world is indebted for it to tbe United States Department of Agriculture. United states Consul William F. Judson, at Bahia, Brazil, heard of seedless orange trees that grew short way from Bagai.

He obtained cuttings from the trees and sent them to the Agricultural Department at Washiugton. The department nurtured the sprouts carefully, and in time was able to send buds from them to several orange growers. The growers grafted the buds upon seedling tree stock. A Call- ornia fruit grower was the first to produce the seedless orange. From aim other grans were obtained tin at length the old seedling orange groves were eittber cut down or regratted with tbe seeaieas una.

Fruit growers wbo study their business scientifically know that seed produced in a fruit through fructification by the yellow pollen or flower dust that appears so abundantly upon the stamens of flowers. If the pollen could be kept away from tbe stigma of a fruit flower, might it not be that the fruit would still grow while the formation of seeds would be prevented! On that theory scientific apple, cherry grape and plum growers have been working patiently ana qmetiy. in India a woman farmer, Mrs. Mary E. Grosh of Noblesville, has been endeavoring to develop a seedless tomato and has at length succeeded.

The fruit is uncommonly fiue from these seedless tomato slips. In general it appears that where the strentrth of the plant nas not to go to the growing or tbe seed the unit is of superior quality. In Colorado, similarly, Mr. John F. Spencer, shortly after the seed less orange had come to stay, began working over the problem of bring ing out a seedless apple.

He now announces that he has attained his object Tbe seedless apple has at the end opposite the stem a slight hard formation somewhat like that In a naval orange, but no seeds. Oddly enough, or perhaps it might have been expected, the seedless upple tree does not have petaled blossoms. Tbe apples grow out from 1 use bnds like the ciuyx of a Clo Eut it wonld be a pity if arris bio '-m suould be done afl A California grower, Ln'her Eur- Saturday and recommended an as sessment of ten cents on tbe $100 insurance to be sent out September 1st.

Pauline Brooks, wife of Dr. J. R. Brooks, died in Louisburg Friday night Mrs. Brooks lived in Monroe for a short while when Dr.

Brooks was the presiding elder of this district, and has many warm friends and admirers here. The Raleigh Post says: "She was the daughter of the lateMaj. D. Hill of Louisburg, and was a christian woman of the sweetest purest char acter. For many years she has been a leading spirit in every good work among the Methodist women of North Carolina.

Her husband has been a cousecrated and faithful member of the North Carolina Con ferenoe aud she has nobly upheld bis bands. She leaves no children, but three brothers. Dr. Cbas. Hill, Mr.

Jones, who is one of the instructors at the summer school for tbe teachers of the couu ty, is one of the general organizers of the clubs of the woman's associ ation for the betterment of school houses and grounds.

The associa tion has already done fine work in some sections of the State. Miss Jones desires to organize a few clubs in this county while here, and will be ready to do this work next week. She desires clubs at least in Monroe, Marshville, Win- gate and Waxbaw, and that these clubs may then organize others over the county. Any community can have an association that wants it The sole object is the improvement of school houses and grounds. Mr.

The fire was put to an unused back room, after oil bad been poured both in side and out When Mr. Long awoke he ran to the well for a tub of water which Baton the curb, and the others came with buckets and the fire thus put out Mr. Long has no idea why any one should want to do such a crime against Dr. J.

Some kind frieuds have seen proper to suggest me as a suitable person to represent this county in the next General Assembly of North Carolina. Others want to know if I would accept the nomination if tendered to me. I write candidly when I make the following state ment: Under no circumstances will I enter into a scramble for this po sition, nor will I solicit any votes, but if a majority of my fellow Democrats, of their own accord, wish me as one of tbe representatives from this county, and so express their wish at our primary on the 20th, I will accept the nomination with appreciation. i i j.

The New Chairman. StalMTlU Landmark. At the meeting of the Democratic nationall committee in New York city Tuesday Thos. Taggart, of In diana, was unanimously elected chairman. Mr.

Taggert says the Baltimore Sun, is a politician with a very interesting history. In the first place, he is a self made man in every sense of the term. His parents came to the United States from Ireland when he was a mere chit of a boy. He was scarcely old enough to wear long breeches when he went to work for himself. He had a stout heart a cheery way, and in the course of time he had advanced trom tbe po sition of waiter in a restaurant to the proprietorship of a modest little es tablishment wherein he played the part of Boniface to his patrons' satisfaction.

He entered politics in Indianapolis as the leader of a forlorn hope and was elected to the best pay ing omce in that city, aow be is a nrosperous man. the owner of valua ble property and a force in Indiana politics. Those who know him well gav that he has not been spoiled by prosperity, but is the same genial and likeable man that he was in the days when he was hustling for a liv ing. led Icel Icel We are handling Ice and want MOREHDEAD CITY, N.

Mr. Burbank believes that he will be able after a while to get plums that are all pulp. Progress has been achieved also in the direction of stoneless grape growing, notab ly in Ohio. As fast as the growers develop anything new they report it to the penological department at Washington. Mr.

Spencer has sent a number of his seedless apples there. The best news of all, however, will probably be that a seedless Georgia watermellon has been brought on as the result of long and patient effort. A Southern watermelon without seeds would be the perfection of fruits. As far as they have progressed the melon experimenters have obtained a fruit containing only a few seeds. It seems only a question of time when we shall buy in the markets all these fruits in a seedless state.
