Though half the world may intervene,

For His strong love Is everywhere.

Farewell the euerdon OF the years
Bring 10 thee fair good morrow;
And DER LIES s0rroW aud its tears,

How 10 Pack Grapes for Mar


When grapes are fully ripe the
punches should be cut from the vines
with pair of hand shears, always
taking hold Of the stem when moving
the bunch. This precaution is neces-
sarv, o that the "bloom mry MT berub
bed off by handling ths. berries. The
prapes are then carried from the vine
ward to cellar or packing house All
green berries should be removed from
the lunches before packing. This
can be rapidly done by holding up
each bunch by the stem aud cutting
ont al the unripe berries with pair
al long, pointed shears. Grapes bring
higher prices in New York market
when packed in small boxes, holding
not more than five pounds each
These boxes are now manufactured

NOT SATISFIED WITH THE REPORT

Tie annual meeting Of the American Institute
was held last evening at Cooper Union. Nathan {.
Eiy the president of the board of trustees acted
chairman The annual report of the officers was
adopted despite a very loud protest from number
of members who made claim to be in the majority
after which the meeting adjourned amid great
confusion and direct charges of sharp practice"
ON tLe part of the officers by several dis
cnntented members X. II. Shannon called
the disconnected members TO order, and d. j.
Whitney then read statement alleging that the
report made by the officers of the Institute was
crooked and false lie asserted that while
the annual fair had resulted in loss, it appeared
on the report as having earned $3.50 "a, and
tLe report showed that it had been Using. This
result said he was obtained by mixing the
items III the two schedules and otherwise
'doctoring' it," Chauncey Shafer SAID
that deception had been practised in making the
report a valuable library had been SACRIFICED, and
management of the affairs of the Institute had been
disreputabe. He ADDED chat no doubt many of the
officers had taken the word of few and signed the
report in ignorance.
