Decision of Interest to Odd Fellows

A decision has been rendered by
New York Judge that will inter-
est members of secret benevolent
societies. Action was brought
against q lodge Of Odd Fellows by
enc of its mem bers to recover 'sick
bene fits,n to which he claimed to
be entitled. The plaintiff had
joined the lodge years ago when its
bylaws provided that in case OF
sickness every member should re-
ceive specified sum weekly "dur-
ing his sickness or disability. An
other section empowered the lodge
to alter or amend the bylaws
whenever deemed expedient. At
ter the plaintiff had been taken
sick and while he was 10 receipt of
the weekly sum allowed him, a by
law was passed reducing the
amount of the payments from four
dollars to one q week. The Judge
decided that the lodge 10 bound to
continue paying the plaintiff the
full amount to which he was enti-
tied when he became sick. The
right of the lodge to change its by
laws Is not denied. But the Court
decides that whatever sum any
member Is entitled to when he Is
taken sick must be treated as q
fixed amount, which cannot cub.
sequentIy be reduced during the
continuance of the sickness.

AN "ORANGE WRAPPING.'
The Florida Substitute for Yankee
"Apple Bee."
FLORIDA letter.

FLORIDA letter.
Last night our party of tourists
went to an "orange wrapping" A
large warehouse belonging to the
Wilkinson place was lighted up
with candles placed along the
walls, and all the "help" of the
neighborhood was gathered. In
one corner of the room there were
huge boxes filed with oranges.
They Were rugged with handles at
each end, and it took two men to
bring one of them in. On the op-
posite side Of the room were long
tables, behind which sat the
wrappers. The fruit was sup.
piled to them by boys, who carried
1t in bread trays, putting tray to
every three men. Before each
man was package of tissue paper.
By a dexterous movement, an or
angs was developed in u leaf of
paper by one movement. AS the
fruit was wrapped, IL was dropped
into another tray, which was car.
ried to the packers" who stood
before pile of empty crates. Each
orange was placed in the crate sep
arstely, being packed in close rows.
A crate holds from 100 to 40 Or
abges, and sells here for about SO
The oranges are not brought direct
from the grove to the packing
house, but rest day or two in the
drying house. There they are
spread over lattice shelves, where
they 60 through o "sweatipgn pro-
cess before they are ready for ship
ment.
The scene in tho wrapping
hoase was q pretty one. The gold
en- fruit, piled In rich profusion,
the men and boys laughing as they
handled 1t 30 rapidly, the orderly
crates with their tempting con.
tents, q hesp of pineapples In an
odd corner, filling the room with
their exquisite flavor, huge
lunches of bananas with just q
fleck of yellow here and there
amid the green, clean-looking
lemons almost rs large as the or
angss, hsaped off to themselves,
great citrons with their royal gold
color, groups of boatmen and

THERE is q good deal of discus
sion in Los Angeles about the va.
rylng reports from the several rain
gauges. As a general thing the
gauge of the United States signal
station registers much less than
those of the Messrs. Ducemmun
and Bliss, the two latter agreeing
very closely in nearly every in
stance. AS we have no doubt the
signal officer attends to his duty
carefully, and makes an honest
record of what he finds, and as we
believe the same of the other gen.
tlemen named, the probability is
that the high altitude at which the
official gauge is set has something
to do with the discrepancy. II
would be q great convenience Il
the Signal Service Department
should make provision for taking
the rainfall at the present great
height and near the ground also
In the absence of such facility
however, the probability is thai
the best way of getting at the true
rainfall in Los Angeles would bt
to take the several reports from
the United States, Duoommun an(
Bliss gauges and divide them by
three. Such process would give
about six inches as the rainfall O.
the present season up to date. w,
would welcome any suggestions al
to the best way of securing som'
degree of uniformity between th'
different gauges.

gave O casual accompaniment, the
ladies watching curiously and

these were some of the elements
that made up the scene-the whole
being enlivened with the haste

the fruit ready to 60 out with the

CRY CLERK's OFFICE,
ST.. PAUL, Mimi, October 10, 1882. !

WHEREAS petition has been fled in this
office, as provided by law, by order of the Com
mon Council Of the City Of st. Paul, asking for
the vacation of the strip Of land forming
the entrance to Maiden Lane, in block II. OF
Dayton & Iryines addition to st. l'snl. and
described as follows: Commencing at a point
on the northerly line OF Lot 2e, in Block II. of
Dayton Irvine's addition to st. Paul, twenty-
four feet westerly from the northeasterly corner
OF said lot; thence running soEthwesterly along
tie southerly line of Maiden Lane 1915 feet to
the northeasterly of Lot Is, in said block;
thence running northerly at right angles to Selby
Avenue, to the southerly line of said avenue;
thence running easterly to the place
OF beginning. The petitioners state that
they are the owners of ma
jorlty OF all the property owned on the line of
said Maiden Lane, ard on the line of property
asked to be vacated, and the facts and reasons
for such vacation are as follows: That said
Maiden Lane, as row laid out, intersects Selhy
avenue at an obtuse angle, making it, If SO used,
lncOnvenient of access and difficult to drive
through the entrance, that the portion of land
forming the entrance to said lane has never been
used as driveway, but entrance to Selby ave-
nue. has been made through piece of ground
lying Immediately west of the entrance to said
lane, which land the owner thereof proposes TO
deed to the city s'as public highway ard as an
entrance Of said Maiden Lane to Selby avenues
should the vacation asked for be made.

4 Defense of Cigarettes.
London Tobacco

The time was, in the early days of cigar
ette-smoking in England, when owing to
the inferiority of the paper used for the
used, and the contact of the saliva with
both the paper and the tobacco, cigarette
smoking might have been injurious to the
system. Of recenl years the consumption
OF cigarettes has grown enormously, and
the competition of manufacturers has re-
suited in great improvement in the
quality of the tobacco, the lighter grades
of tobacco, in which the percentage Of
nicotine is low, being in general use, and
the public is gradually being weaned
from its taste for the darker Virginia to-
baccos, in which large proportion of mic
otine is present. The paper now used
by all leading manufacturers may be said
to be perfect, and the ''amber tips" as the
moisture-proof mouthpieces are styled,
effectually guard the saliva from contact
with either the paper or the tobacco. Be-
sides this, cigarette comes to the mouth
clean and fresh, and must be better for the
health than the pipe, which gets fouler
with nicotine after every use, until (as is
often SEEM the smoker has to hold it up
every now and again to let the nicotine
drain out of the stem. Cheap cigars
may also be giving place to the
cigaretts. but this can hardly be change
for the worse; and the few that can smoke
high priced Havana are not the greatest
consumers of cigaretts. 1t is the transpo-
sition of the cigaretts for the pipe which is
largely taking place. 1t is now not un-
common to see carter or lbaorer putting
a cigarett in place of what was once the
eternal" pipe. There is every sign that
the consumption of cigaretts will not be
confined to the upper-middle and middle
classes, but will in few years beco me
general among the common people, We
think it would be more sensible to encour-
age the smoking of cigaretts as a lesser evil
than pips-smoking, and prac tice which,
to the non-smoker, must be the least OBJ
iectiOnable of the two
