According to the Rochester Republican a New Jersey preacher is endeavoring to prove by the Bible that there are no women and never will be, because women In oldea times were not considered immortal aid are not now. -He says "man was made for the glorification of God and woman for the glorification of man." The Republicaa says that if there are no ladies with whom men can walk the gol len streets in the New Jerusalem arm in arm, the City of Godjwilljh've^no special attraction for its male in habitants.

There has bren a theatrical 'company organized in Greenfield. 'They will play "The Old Homestead" which is a fine play and should be well attend by the people "of Graenflrdd, the receipts of whi*.h go to the building of the new Christian church. There are about 30 actors in all and they rehearse three times a week and wi'l have the play before the public in three we*»ks. The actors are under^the management of Mr. CnyW who was an a^tor for many years Hivlh.s had muih experience in this jine.

The boy who has the freedom of the streets after nightfall, without business or permission of his parents, is cultivating a dangerous habit. Any place where a boy has no business is a dangerous place for him, be it on the streets, in the stores or livery barns. A boy that is all right will prefer his home, friends, books and newspapers to the low class found upon the streets. Business men of all kinds look upon boy loafers as the "dead beats" of the future. Boys, if you will adopt the right habit while boys, you will in manhood be useful to the world, will be a source of comfort to your parents and then you will have the satisfaction of looking back upon a well spent life.—Exchange.

Riches and Poverty.

Some paople think it a sin to be rich. There will be many rich men in heaven as well as many in hell. There will be many poor people in heaven as well as in hell. The question is how did you get your riches and how did you get your poverty, -and what are you doing with it?—Rev. Dr. Stuart.

THE PAN HANDLE NURSERIES

AHE MUCH LARGER THAN MOST PEOPLE IMAGINE THEY ARE.

J. K. Henby, After Devotlug Eis'Iit \esirs Work to This Nursery, Has Made It One ot Tlie Uest Iu Indiana.

A reporter of the REPUBLICAN went down to the Pan Handle nursery of J. K. Henby this morning, and was taken all over the farm by Mr. Henby. The nursery is located about mile Sout heast of this city and contains a little more than 76 acres.

Mr. Henby bought this farm about eight years ago, and when he commenced putting out fruit, the groundj'was in a very bad state of cultivation. Mr. Henby paid out lots of money in getting the ground in the proper condition. He now has the place in flue repair, both as to cultivating and also in the way of improvments. At the present time he has a large lorco of fruit tree agents packing goods for their fall delivery, and it is astonishing to see the number of trees that are ready for shipment. The large number of trees taken out leave a big hole in his first-class trees for this year, but he has many thousand tree3 and vines that will be first-chus for next year. He has several blocks of apple trees that contain more than 15,000 trees that will be ready for delivery next year. Besides this he has thousands of peach, apple, pear, cherry and shade trees. It would be impossible for us to enumerate the different varieties of trees he has. He also has a great number of raspberries, blackberries, strawberries, currants, gooseberries, etc., which he has tried and found to be first-cla3s in every particu iar. The 70 acres is laid out in such a manner that Air. Henby knows where every variety and kind is located. In fact it is a model nursery, and it will well pay anyone to visit it, for it is a place one don't see very often.

As we have said, Mr. Heaby has put lots of money iu the place. For five years he manured and tended the pluce while he was living in this city on Walnut street. About three years ago he built a beautiful house on the place and has since resided there. He now uses a gas pump to furnish water for his farm, and afterwards uses the same gas for heating purposes. He has lately added an office to his residence so that it will be more convenient for his agents aud patrons. Taking the nursery altogether, it is one that would do credit to a much larger city thau Greenfield. Mr. Henby is to be congratulated on his venture as a fruit tree grower/for he has certainly achieved a great success. His son Elijah, is now associated wiuh him in this business, and we predict for the firm of Henby & Son a brilliant future. The REPUBLICAN will do all iu its power to promote this enterprise—an enterprise which is a great credit to the county.

Should you ever be in need of fruit or shade trees of any kind, we believe it will pay you to call on Mr. Henby & Son.

NURAFLT TRIAL P&OVI-'-ONED.

Another Week Will ire Devoted tc Ti'rlag Testimony. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. IS.—The trial of Theodore Duraut for the murder of anche Laniont did not go on yesterflay. So many of the jurors are business men, and it beiny collection day. tlie court adjourned. lc- is list-iy tiiac the court will take a lurcher adjournment. Attorney Denprey, the counsel for the defense, is conlined to his bed with rheumatism anu his associates #'ill base this as a reason for continual^' for several days. Ail hough the court is known to be opposed to de-

lays in tills trial, it is believed, how- 1 ..

ever, that he will grant the continu-

In the meantime, Theodore Durant

remains in his cell, never leaving it for the customary exercising in the corridors. It is icl that he is becoming exceedingly irritable. Since he finished his testimony in Judge Murphy's court, the defendant lias lost considerable vivacity, and instead of being careless and indifferent, he i3 serious and troubled. For the iirst time since his arrest, the iiieilieal student seemed impressed with the proper idea of his terrible position. Ac last it has dawned on him that he may be convicted aud as lie realizes the chain of circumstantial evkk:nce against iiiui he has become much depressed.

Attorney Dickinson, for Dnrant, remarked that he thought, the defense wouid be able to put in the balance of its testimony in t\vo days or less. Thou the piouecution will put its witnesses in rebuttal. District Attorney Barnes says he will handle them rapidlj', but Di-k-inson is preparing to cross-question the witnesses at length, and on that account it need create no surprise if another week is devoted to tiio work of taking testimony.

Although Captain of Detectives Lees is busily engaged in the trial of Durant for the murder of Blanche Lament, he is not overlooking the Minnie Williams case, but is still gathering evidence to be used when the trial of that case is begun. Many think that in the event the prisoner is convicted of the killing of Blanche Laniont he will noc be put on trial for the murder of Minnie Williams. Captain Lees and tiie district attorney have made up their minds, I however, to press both cases. Just how soon the second trial will begin has not been determined, as a date for the healing has not been set.

STARVED TO DEATH.

Mrs. John A. Grover Took No Nourishment J'or Over Two 3Iontl!a. CHRYEXNB, Wy., Oct. 15.—Mrs. John A. Grover, who died at Laramie yesterday of starvation, had taken no nourishment, except a glass of miik, for over two months. From 200 pounds in weight she wasted away to 75 pounds. An extraordinary circumstance is that the alimentary canal failed absolutely to perform its office for 10 weeks prior to death.

Local phys4c4a.is offer as a possible explanation the theory that some brain disorder interfered with the natural processes of the body in such a way as to prevent physical wasting away. She lost the power of speech two weeks ago and made lierseif understood by signs. She apparently sullered no pain. She was a half-sister of the world-known Sarah Althea Hill Sharon,
