The interest taken by the members of this
progressive lodge In the advancement OF the
cause OF temperance and the efficiency OF the
lodge was demonstrated on last evening In
manner most thorough. Timms Hall having
become too small TO accommodate the con.

Shortly after the lodge was opened for blsi.

At the close OF the ceremonies OF Initiation

such as TO carry conviction to the most scep

to the highest degree without any other slim

solicitude for each others welfare, comfort
and happiness and desire TO strengthen each
other in good resolves so abnndantly Afforded.
An elegant and bountiful collation. was served
by the ladies OF the lodge, 10 which all did full
justice. During short business session some
important matters were promptly disposed OF,
after which the lodge was highly enter

mxsterious Disapnearance.

A well known East Washington gentle-
man, named Professor Benjamin H. Benton,
has mysteriously disappeared from his
home, No. 500 Eleventh street southeast,
and his family and friends are much
alarmed for his safety. The reports that
he has probably committed suicide arc not
believed by those who know him best. One
of his most intimate friends said to a
CRITIC reporter to-day, II do not think the
Professor has suicided. He had been on a
protracted spree, and think he has gone
off quietly to straighten up"
Professor Benton is over sixty-three
years ofage, five feet, ten inches high, with
full gray beard and mnstache. He was
attired in dark suit and carried an ebony
cane with his initials engraved upon it.

RUSSIAN FkUI1s.-Mr. Charles Gibb
states that the names Of fruits in Russia
are hopelessly confounded, so that it is
very difficult to pe certain IS to the va
riety by the name given to it in different
parts Of the country. He says that the
leading apple of the Volga is the Aus,
which is highly priced and very largely
grown. 1t seems to be capable of en-
during climate of 58 degrees below
zero, that in latitude 65 there are twelve
villages where the peasant proprietors
engage entirely Ill apple growing, and
that the product of these villages in n
good season amounts to fifty Thousand
dollars. This is the coolest orchard
region known, and the ADis Is their
hardest tree. This Anis apple seems
to comprise number Of varieties, one
spoken Ct as the pink colored variety,
another as the Blue Anis. Tie leading
apple Of tho Russian Steppes is Anton
ov&a. In the climate of TouIa latitude
81, some 480 miles further north than
the city of Quebec it is considered their
hardest apple as woll as the most pro-
duotlve. 1t certainly Is most produc-
tive tree, sometimes yielding nearly half
q ton of fruit.
sufficiently hardy to endure the climate
of latitude 81 Oh tho Volga. He found
cherries of II hardy variety that were
grown i'll great abundance; that in tho
cherry district Of Vladimer there are
many orchards comprising $4,000 trees
each, and that entire trains of cars are
sometimes loaded with the fruit and
sent to the markets; that indeed tho
chief industry of this section is cherry
culture. The trees are bush form, and
when they become too old to bear pro-
titabIy, the old pats are cut away and
the sprouts allowed to take their plnces.
When ripe the flesh of the cherry Is y
pulplish red, the skin reddish black,
and the flavor II rich mingling of sweet
and acid. Mr.. Gibb sees 10 reason
why these cherries may uot be pre- ita-
bly, grown i'll the Province OF Quebec
lie also found plums in Central Russia,
chiefly of tho pruno family. These
plum trees, like tho cherry. arc very
dwarfish i'll habit, moro like bushes
than trees. They arc usually grown
from suckers.
