southern Fruit Business.

The following editorial from the Cincin-
natl Daily Enquirer, of March 18th, is of in
terest to our friends who grow fruit: Z" The
shipment of southern fruit and vegetables
from the south last year to northern markets
did not yield to the grower as handsomely as
In former years, and in consequence orchards
and strawberry patches are to some extent
for sale, while, In not few instances, berry
patches have been converted into fields for
the production of more lucrative crop. The
cause OF this is to great degree due to the
fact that large bulks of fruit-much of it in
dltferent-were shipped daily by fast freight
or fruit trains. In former years, when the
business was so profitable to the regular
frult-grower, the transportation was confined
only to passenger trains IN charge of mes
senger of the express companies. The linn
tied facilities thus afforded, together with the
fact that the tariff was necessarily somewhat
higher, admitted only the regular grower,
who produced fine fruits to the trade, and
his shipments, being carried to the various
mark in the shortest possible time IN cars
well ventilated and arranged by the mes
senRer in charge, arrived IN fresh, sound and
marketable condition, and brought good
prices. On the introduction last year of fast
freight, or fruit trains for this business, every
farmer who had few fruit trees or a small
berry patch for his own consumption, was lu-
duced by the cheap rates of transportation on
the freight trains to gather and box his fruit
and ship it north, no matter whether it was
good, bad or indifferent, and the consequent
large quantities shipped 'glutted or over
stocked the markets, and tumbled prices
to non paying basis. A portion of this
fruit, from being much longer IN transporta-
ton, and with little or no ventilation or ar
| rangement while en- route, arrived in sickly,
perishable condition, and was not, in many
ms tances, sold for even the cost of cheap
transportation. The experience of last sum-
mer very clearly demonstrates that ii is only
| choice fruit, well and eIpeditiously handled,
and in quantities not too large to overstock
the markets, that will yield a profit to the
grower"

THAT BABY OF MINE
Was One OF Mrs. divers Grievances
upon which She Urged Old Simon
to Tote Fair''-A Dirty story
OF Dirty Deeds.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The Oliver
Cameron breach-of-promise suit was contln-
ued to-day, and the cross-examination of
Mrs. Oliver by General Butler resumed. A
number of letters written by Mrs. Oliver
were produced, read, and acknowledged by
the witness as hers. An effort will be made
by the defense to chow that the handwriting
OF those letters is identical with that of the
letters purporting to have been written by
Senator Cameron to Mrs. Oliver. The letters
read were generally of a threatening charac-
ter, demanding a money consideration IN set
Element. Among them was one stating that
she would bring suit for fifty thousand dol
lars, but was willing to compromise for ten
thousand dollars To this letter was added
a postscript. saying: ~ am gong before the
court next week to swear to the truth that
you are the father Of this baby, so that it
will not come into the world unproVlded
for" The witness stated that there was no
child, but she believed herself in that condi
ton at the time she wrote the letter. Others
judged 90 and she had 10 leave the treasury
department on that account. Senator Cam
eron forced her to take medicine. She be-
ieved at the time that it was done to destroy
her. She afterward had a miscarriage. She
went into Riddles Office in state of preg
nancy, and later returned and said the child
was born, ana wanted him to 90 after Sena-
tor Cameron to get money.

THE MEAT QUESTION,
AS Been Through Statistics OF the sea

Cities, as Furnished TOr Gin
cinnati StatistIcians.

CINCINNATI. March I9-The Price Cur
rent of tomorrow will publish returns of the
winter pork packing at the leading western
cities, Cincinnati, Chicago, st. Louis, Indian
POOLS, Milwaukee and Louisville. The Price
current assumes that the returns embrace
over l00,0 hogs belonging TO the October
account The aggregate at these places Is
$500, I42 hogs, against 4, 564, 693 hogs last
year. The average net weight Is 2l9 45-lOO
pounds, a decrease OF ~ pounds net, or 9s8
pounds gross, compared with last year, The
average yield of lard per hog is 40 80 100
pounds, against B 9I-lO0 last year. The
amount OF pork made Is 1876, coo barrels,
against 523, 600 last year. The proddction
of mess pork was $4,000 barrels,
against $4,000 last year. Returns
thus far received from interior places
indicate about the same falling off IN weight
IN the country as at the large cities, the call
culations being based on the reports from
places representing nine-tenths OF the ln-
terror packing. The same paper contains re-
ports from two hundred and twenty-five
places in regard TO the prospective supply
and the time of marketing spEIng and sum
mer hogs. and arrives at the CONCLUSION that
IN Ohio, Kentucky aud Indiana there wiii be
a marked decrease, possibly a small decrease
IN Illinois, little If auy decrease IN Iowa,
probably as mary IN Missouri, end more IN
Kansas and Nebraska. The most liberal
runs are expected IN May aud June, and the
latter part of the season. The total packing
last summer was about $4,000 hogs, and
1t is regarded as likely there will be a de-
crease Of twenty TO twenty-five per cent. this
season.

The Ear and Law Library of Memphis,
as seen by an Appeal COmnissIOner


The Memphis bar aud law library, at tne
court house, is well worth a visit. The
Iibrarv-,'oom is large and ccmmodious, sur
rounded with everything necessary to accom-
MEDIATE and aid lawyers desiring to hunt up
authorities or get up briefs. over I've thou
sand volumes Of reports and textbooks are on
the shelves, and the room Is adorned with
portraits and photographs OF the different
officers of the association and It's members.
The property in books, etc, belonging to the
association is valued at some twenty thou
sand dollars. The reports are largely AmeTl-
can, while the English reports and United
States statutes and digests sum up many
hundreds Of Volumes. Besides, there Is re-
ceIved a large number Of law periodicals and
journals. The library renders II unnecessary
for a lawyer to make any particular outlay for
law books. II illustrates the we'll known ad -
vantage Of the efforts Of body Of men over
the efforts OF an individual. By the payment
OF forty-four dollars year, a lawyer secures
the free use Of all the books and other
property Of the library; without this
the lawyer would have to expend annually
several hundred dollars for reports and text
books in order to keep NJ bis private library

Present Outlook of n Various

Mr.. Jerry Malone writes to the SENTINEL
under date of the 9th, and says / paid a
visit to the tunnel Of the English Compa-
ny a few days ago, and found the face Of
the drift, which is being run to prospect
the Eberhardt mine, looking very favora-
Bile that is, judging from the indications
ON the hill, That have formerly led to ore,
and l am under the impression that the
day is not far distant when you will record
& Aurora mine. which is now being worked
on tribute by Messrs. Green, Snider and
others, and is looking well. The ore is Of
a very high grade, but the casing Of the
ledge is 50 hard that it is almost impossi-
BILE to break it in any great quantities /;
still, the boys are in big hopes Of making
a stake this winter.
Mr.. Robertson, Of the Badly Sour mine,
put in an appearance here last week. and
has let q contract to run so feet OF a drift
flom the bottom of the shaft, which has
been taken by Messrs. Whealan and Ken
ney.
The Stafford Company are prospecting
their mine, and are opening a fine body of
ore. Tim Shine say that he has a streak
of ore from two to three inches thick, and
if it will open out he will have the biggest
thing of any man in White Pine.
John Dick is prospecting his mine, work

Last EycninS,s social.

Notwithstanding the committee OF ar
rangements desired those who proposed at
tending the social last evening to be on
hand early, the SESTISEL's representative
was about the only one present at s o'clock.
Half an hour later the hall WAS comfort
ably filed, and the usual exercises COM
menced. Several ladies OF musical pro-
c~livities had sent word OF their inability to
attend, but there was certainly no lack of
music. Miss Crawford led off with Beau
tiful Danube variations, and the skillful
ann in which she fingered the keys told
OF careful training aud constant practice.
She was followed by Mrs. Hasten, who did
herself credit, and Mrs. C~hamblin. who
possesses one OF the sweetest aud best
modulated voices to which il has ever been
our fortune to listen. A duet by Mrs.
Brooks and Master Butler followed.
The formers reputation as a musician is
so well established as to need no
comment, but we were surprised at Master
Buffers proficiency. Mrs. II. M. Beatty
sang Brock Me to Sleep, Mother" with q
pathos that rendered that favorite ballad
doubly sweet. Mrs. johnson and Mr..
Ranson's rendition of 'When the Swallows
Homeward Fly" wal received with mani
fest delight, as was also the performance Of
the Misses Kobe and Wethered. Professor
Wideles, lately Of the Josh Hart troupe,
added greatly to the evenings entertain
ment, and the overtures of Mrs. Brooks,
Mr.. Ransom, Mr.. Wolfe and Otto Kaufman
completed the musical portion Of the pro-
gramme, and about half-past 0 O'Clock
dancing commenced, which was kept up
until midnight, when the party dispersed.
The Committee are untiring in their efforts
to add to the comfort Of their guests, and
both they and the order they represent are
entitled TO the thanks Of Eureka society
for the series Of charming reunions which
they have introduced.
