THE PRICE OF ORANGES.


Throughout the West and East,
the orange crop of Louisiana is he
ginning to attract marked attention.
A luxury heretofore beyond the
means of majority III the humber
walks of life, is rapidly becoming
familiar to all, and yet ten times our
present production would not over

case with scores of other .commodi
ties, a reduction in the profits oil the
'smiddle man" will rebound TO tue
advantage OF both prod"cer and con

vicinity of Hahnville is sud upon
the trees at an average price never
higher than ten dollars a thousand.
This sum, it is true, proves highly
remunpratve to the horticulturist,
but it is Obvious, could the fruit
reach its last purchaser at anything
approaching d fair margin of profit,
the consumption would be inmeas
urablS increased. OF the prices
actually paid the public are quite
familiar. Three cents and third

in New Orleaus considered low
prize. The sum involved may be
insignificant, but the dealer at these
rates makes two and one third times
more money, than the planter, who
has not only invested his capital, but
devoted IL years labor to the enter
prise. When the fruit reaches
'ssecond hands" who pays freight c

RIGHTED BY RUSSELL.
A Widow who Loved Not Wise
ly," ETC., Demanded Justice
and Got It.

Mrs. L. V. Adair is a widow and the
mother of four children. For some time
past she has managed to make living for
herself and children by keeping boarding
house. Among her boarders was man by
the name of William Russell. 1t seems
that Russell, although a man apparently
much younger than his landlady, formed
an attachment for her and on more than
one occasion made propositions of marriage
10 the buxOE widow. His advances were
only too kindly received by the lonely
woman, and as q result, she soon discovered
that she was about to add one more to her
brood of children. She made known her
condition to her lover, who at once prom
ised to make her his wife,
but he was little dilatory about fulfilling
his promise, end on last Sunday, Mrs.
Adair thought that from all indications
that Mr.. Russell was preparing to skip.
Accordingly she made all of the facts
known to a policeman, who, upon bearing
her story, felt justified in arresting Mr..
Russell, which he did and landed him in
the cooler, finding a revolver on the per-
son OF the gay deceiver, and stating him
for carrying concealed weapons.
On Sunday morning, Russell, entirely
ignorant Of the charge which had been
preferred against him, and also not being
sufficiently informed to know that the city
could not hold him on a charge of the ma
ture mentioned, agreed to marry
the victim of his lust. Accordingly the
officer procured license and the ceremony
was performed by Rev. DR.. Jackson Sum
day afternoon.
