q Nav York Nllllonaire Married to Cole
brated Virginia Beauty.

. wav York lQllllouaire Married to = Colo
brated Virginia beauty.
Berrovills, . pretty little Virginia vii
lace. nesting in tho valley of the Shenan-
doah. was the scene on Monday OF a
brilliant wedding. the contracting parties
being Mr.. John Stevens, of Castle Point,
Hoboken, tho eldest son of the late Com:
modore Edwin A. Stevens, the builder and
owner of the famous yatchts Julia and
America. and the no less famous iron
ram Dunderberg, and Miss Mary Marshall
Mcclure, the young and beautiful daugh-
ter of tho late d. b. MCGUIRE, of Clark
county, and ono of the most noted bellies
of the Old Dominion.
The engagement, when announced some
few months ago, created as much excite:
ment throughout the state as did any OF
the different forms of engagements that
have made the Shenandoah valley famous
in the annals of the war.
It was known that the bridegroom was
the possessor of great wealth, tho fortune
left him by his father being estimated "a an
the way from $40, 900, 600 to SIS, ,OOO, OOO,
and he being in addition part owner OF the
Hoboken ferry and chief heir to his
mothers property, who il, probably, next
to Mrs. AstOr and Mrs. Vanderbilt, the
richest woman in America.
Mr.. Stevens is twenty seven years old
and an exceedingly well-read and Quilt
vated young man having travelled exten-
sively. His life, however has been
shadowed by terrible nightmare, which
has made him an object of the greatest
solicitude to his friends and the attention
of all who have ever seen him. At an
early age he became victim to that dis
ease o prevalent among the mountains OF
Switzerland, but happily SO uncommon
here-the goitre. A mcmbraneous sac
formed on one side of his head and grad
ually increased in size notwithstanding
the efforts of the most skilled physicians,
until it hung down below his shoulders,
was fast exhausting his strength and bade
fair to end his life. He sailed for Europe
and there consulted the most eminent
physicians.
It is said that he offered 81 ,O00, 900 to
any one who would remove tho deformity
successfully, but the physicias agreed that
there was no possible chance of doing SO
and preserving his life.
Dispirited and discouraged, he sailed
for homo and visited DIR. Willard Parker.
The skilled surgeon gave it as his opinion
that the operation could be successfully
performed, and made good his word by
accomplishing it successfully to the JOY o
his patient, his relatives and friends. 1t
is said that $1O0, 900 was the amount OF
the check handed the surgeon for this new
lease of life, and the four years or more
since the day on which it was procured
have been q new existence to tho young
millionaire.

EvAPORATED FRUITS.

being IN our neighDOring town OF
Milan short time since, we made it
convenient to call upon Mr.. w. q.
Harrison, hrother.in>law TO our fell
low,citizen w. NJ. Mccall, ESQ.,, who
has been operating an Evaporation the
past season. In response to our in.
quiries Mr.. H. kindly gave us the
following facts, which we place before
the "Fruit and Farm" readers: Ordi.
nary apples make from six to eight
pounds of the evaporated product;
good apples from eight to eleven
pounds, worth at this time from Is to
164 cents wholesale, with an upward
tendency. Mr.. FL. paid for summer
apples from 25 cents to 80 cents, or
worked up the product one half for
the other. There is no waste about
the business, pairing and scraps are
used for jelly stock, cores for cider or
jelly. The apples are pared, cored
and sliced at one operation by the
apple peeler.
Two bushels of peaches make one
evaporated, and are worth Is to Is
cents unpeeled-2S to 80 cents peel
ed. MIR. HI. works six hands, using
about As bushels per day. He con-
templates running several evapora-
tors another season. We suggested
Gadsden, but he stated there were
few apple orchards around our BAN
nor fruit town. 1t would seem that
in fruit growing, as i'll other lines of
business, that communities are inclin-
ed to run into specialties. The evap
orator will be found valuable factor
in the development of our resources.
They are now made of all sizes and
prices, from the kitchen stove five
dollar sort to the large commercial
size, costing $1,000 to $4,000. In
conversation few days since with an
experienced and intelligent nursery
and fruit man from Rochester, New
York, we learned that he was inter-
ested in large evaporator being OPP
Grated in Michigan. This evspora-
tor consumed the surplus fruit of
several counties, great deal of
which was shipped to them by rail-
the parings, cores and seed paying
the expense of ira nsportationl This
gentleman was looking out location
to 60 largely into the growing of
fruits, expecting to evaporate the
products of his orchard entire. We
were informed that every species of
vegetable was now being evaporated,
from pumpkins up (pardon, from
pumpkins down, we mean). AS we
have predicted, the evaporator will
revolutionize the fruit growing indus>
tries of the country. The Tennessee
farmer who plants ten acres of his
farm in good varieties of apples, buys
a farm size evaporation, dries his fruit
as it ripens, will have steady and
paying home employment, easier,
nicer and far more profitable than
cotton growing. And if he plants
20 or more acres. all the better, just
so that he can handle his crop.
We lift our hat to the evaporation
and are glad that it is being introduce
ed into West Tennessee. Humboldt

HOTEL WALTERS.
Secrets of the Vocation Given Away by the
Former Maverick Chief

"what becomes of hotel walters when they
have grown old ?" asked LIGHT hired man of
Henri .Auvray, a late Dining Room Director at
the Hotel Maverick.
"All of them became stewards or proprie-
tors" said he. "Hotel waiting is good bust
ness, not here, maybe, but in the east. In
New York, at Coney island, at Long Branch, l
can always make my 800 or $3.50 a month 1t
is not the salary-that don't mind-but the
fees. When first entered the Delmonico l
had to pay Sl5 a month for three months.
After that was paid SIS month. The charge
against me was for broken glasses IL was sup

at the Continental hotel walters have to pay so

them on our arm as II trying to build pyra-
mid. / can carry 30 glasses on my left arm at
once don't suppose any of the men here can
carry 10. They can't attend to but two tables.
"During the Paris exhibition | had charge (
a restaurant on the exhibition grounds. The
rooms were beautifully furnished. There were
mirrors all around and could stand anywhere
and see nearly every action about me. There
were ~ cooks employed and Us girl walters.
The girls were very pretty and dressed neatly
in white bOnnpts and aprons and bright dresses.
They made about 81 week, which was cohsid-
cred good wages. When the proprietor and |
came home from market we would hear them
all singing together az they prepared the yege-
tables and sometimes we would join in with
them. They were all good girls, and several of
them spoke three or four languages.

than 10 cents In this country have received
from one man S25 more than once. At the
Delmonico $40 was not an unusual gift. Some
times poor men give money to head walters
who are rich and live luxuriously. That seems
droll, but il Is true"
"what do you think of the cooks here2 They
do very well, don't theyp There are three, all
negroes, not counting the baker. Here the
walters get served in turn. They go IN line and
nut down their trays one after another. But
in New York and Paris they shout out what
they want as fast as they can and the cooks
repeat the names of the dishes. Sometimes q
cook has to keep in his memory 200 orders al
once,

Traffic in Babies.

A coroner's inquest in New York, over the
body of baby supposed to have been pois-
oned, has led to some queer revelations. The
lady who had adopted the child told a curious
story OF the traffic in babies. Some time ago
she purchased an infant for SIS, but the child
sickened, and it was returned to its mother,
and an offer of $40 made for healthy female
baby. She got the infant and a receipt for it
from woman claiming to be its mother.
Some time after nurse was employed for
the infant, whom the adopted mother alleges
was in the employ of the woman from whom
she made the purchase, and whom she
charged with poisoning the little one. 1t is
said that several societies in New York give
out babies to be fed on the bottle, paying the
nurses by the month"; and that in some cases
the infants are sold by the nurses, who have
no difficulty in getting their pay from the So
cieties by presenting borrowed baby to the
agent on the first OF each month.
