sides nobody could or ought TO lore
see that the Factory would begin as a
failure. What a contrast between the
promises to be read in a series of COM
municated articles in this paper in
1875 and the later sad reality The
deficiency of the factory in the begin
ming caused very considerable loss to
others; a large quantity of cane vas
lost because the Factory had been
looked to for receiving it and in
consequence no other provision had
been made for taking them off, when
unexpectedly the Factory failed in
working.
1t, was quite natural that St. Croix
people from the beginning did con
slider the Factory a public affair con-
corning them, in fact, a thing started
for their sake, but the Factory main
tained-perhaps at first in conSe-
quence Of some irritation caused by
the first failures-the reverse opinion,
and in these circumstances we find the
ground for the incordiality, which,
especially in the beginning, existed
between the Factory on the one side,
and those with whom they had to do
on the other. With brighter days
this became somewhat better, as
the Berlingske Tidendo has i, "the
relations between planters and the
factory have become more CONSOLIDATE
ed" Yes, because, since the Factory
has come in proper working order and
been able to take off the crop offered,
the advantages of the Factory princi-
pie have become more obvious to
planters. 1t enables them to get off
even a large crop and to make their
preparations for the next crop in pro-
per time, which they could not other
wise under the existing scarcity of la
bour be able to. Besides, the megass
which under the old SYSTEM was burnt
is now saved for manuring the soil.
Both labour and manure is saved.
Still, it must be admitted that it is
questionable whether, if there was a
greater labor force in the island, the
Factory would then get as good a sup
ply OF canes as now,
The st. Cr0ir Api8 has always advo.
Gated the necessity of supporting the
Fnc'oryi if we would not be lett behind
in the great strides elsewhere made in
sugar production, and we are therefore
happy to see that the Factory is gain
ing ground in The island; it has now
fouryearly contracts for cane delivery
with a good number of e%st,tes, il ex.
tends its sphere OF action even as far as
Mt. Pleasant PlesSens, II Danish miles
from Christiansted, which estate TO-.
gether with others are connected with
Fair Plain station by a tramway. This
last station was not in action last year
but will have a good supply Of cane
this year. The Factory has made ii
possible for the small owners or lease
holders of a few acres of land to cult
vate the sugar cane, and this c%ultIva-
tion by the small proprietor or lease,
holder has especially spread in the
vicinity of Christiansted, IF we are
not mistaken the Factory from this
class ofpeople principally including
those termed squatters) expect to
receive canes representing 3-400
hogsheads of sugar, The nearest

y. Thus they advance that the cul
'%ivation of small areas Of lard by
squatters diminishes the already small
labour force onthe estates, and tEatthe
increase of acreage cultivated by squat
ters will more than correspond 10 Il de-
trease ofcultiva tedacrea9eont the estates.
And principally the planters are gen.
orally of opinion that the compensa-
ton they receive from the Factory di-
recIly and indirectly is not a fair
equivalent to the loss of the value of
their rum and molasses. If the ac-
counts were exhibited planters would
be able to judge for themselves on
this last point.
The exhibition of the accounts
would, as honorable member of the
Council Willard said, create a bet
Ter feeling and more confidence in
the Factory.
The value of "better feeling" and
confidence" cannot Of course be er-
pressed in dollars and cents, but never
theless theyare OF real and great value,
and it has not been to the profit OF
the Factory that this value has hither-
to to "a great ertent been overlooked.

A Fireman's Act Of Daring.
ortland Dispatch in the Boston Globe.

itd DlsputCu Ill lle Boston GlOD0,
The fire last night destroyed a block
owned by A. L. E. Clapp. In the
midst of the fire some men went into an
upper room and removed a Ike, of pow
der, carrying it through the flames and
preventing IN explosion. 1.-THE credit
of taking the powder out of the burning
building does not belong to me-" said
Samuel Thurston, fireman, to-day.
THAT was the act of Elisha &. Peter
SON" Samuel Thurston was within
three feet Of the powder OF the time
and kept his place at the pipe" said a
fireman. "Wllen Peterson went by Sam

Said Sam sGetit out my place is here

close by the key. The room was full Of
fire, and it was dropping down from
overhead at the moment when Peterson
performed his heroic act. Had that
powder exploded it is simply impossible,
to say how great the loss of life might
have been"
Mr.. Peterson is about 40. He said:

Ruslin's Eccentricities.

Mr.. Ruskin is a curiosity. He is sell
dom to be seen anywhere. Even in his
own beloved lake district he takes his
walks in the gray of the morning or the
dusk or the evening. He seldom goes
into society. He loves the theater, and
goes when he feels he can indulge him
self with such recreation. Perhaps not
fifty of these well-known people have
everseen Mr.. Ruskin before. He comes
into the room in the midst of a half
dozen gentlemen, not i'll the usual SEEM
l.y fashion of the English procession on
such occasions. l saw him when he en-
tered the room, but who was before him,
behind him or beside him / could
not now say, for they all came together
and the distinguished scholar and critic
was like the master in the great picture
of Veronesi, 1.-The marriage of Cana"
He was Sin the midst thereof" Ruskin
is just 65 years old, and he looks and
acts like q man of 40. He is not more
than five feet five inches in hight. In
deed he is petit. His complexion orig
inally, I should Judge of what remains
OF a complexion, was fair, though now
his face nearly UP to his eyes is covered
with an iron gray beard; the abundant
hair is unconventionally long, and
though he was personally neat and
trim" his hair seemed to have had no
recent speaking acquaintance with a
brush. The forehead is low and re-

Agricultural Items.

Nh. Nimmo's recent conclusions are
especially cited as "a damper upon tho
trichinosis shriekers":
"He inquired of the Health Depart
ments of the large cities, and the reports
cover not less than five years in any
case, and some of them run back to
1884, and in all the vast aggregate OF
deaths in all this time in all the sections
only about ten have died Of trichinosis.
If trichinn cannot do worse than this, it
deserves no more censure than hunks of
beefsteak that have choked men to
death"
The common practice of breeding only
from second brood turkeys, and those
that are not fit to kill at New
Years, is a very short sighted policy.
In nothing will q good selection pay
better than in breeding this noble bird.
In the wild state, where the s'survival
of the fttest" is the rule, gobblers
weighing forty pounds are not infre-
quent, and some are upon record weigh
ing ever fifty pounds. The prevailing
custom of breeding from the smallest
and cheapest, keeps marlQts full oil
birds that do not weigh moro then eight
or ten pounds, dressed.

The handsomest girl in Sylvania
county, GA, became engaged nearly 40
years ago, to John Gross. the son of q
wealthy planter. Shortly after the en-
gagement was announced Gross went
to New Orleans on business, forgot his
lady love, settled in Texas, and did not
return home until two years later.
Though the lady had not heard n word
from him in all that time, she was still
true. They renewed the engagement,
then quarreled, and Gross went off
again. He renamed away until a few

homestead to celebrate his Goth birth
day. He found his fiancee still waiting
and promptly married her. She had
refused many offers of marriage during
his absence. Three men whom she
had refused became respectively a con-
gressmen, q senator and a governor.
