Secrets of the Tea Trade.


Americans and Europeans make a
great mistake in buying tea. said an edu-
Gated Chinese merchant They invaria-
bly, rely upon the name instead of juGg-
ing of the quality of the tea by its APP
pearance. The Chinese never do that, for
they are aware that no other people under
the sun are so adr it in the adulteration
of goods as their own nation. No depend
ence can be plae cd ON mere name in the
tea trade Chinese people judge of tea
just as Amer cans do of butter. by its
looks. To determine this is matter of
education in tha same way that Judging
of butter is. Tea of good qualify una
dulterated, is almost inodorOus and diff
fuses little aroma when placed in boiling
water The Chinese invariably use black
tea at home and almost exclusively here
also. This Is both from preeesenoo for
its trade and because 1t is considered
healthier.
THE best tea brought to this country is
the black, the finer grades of green tea be
ing all consumed in China. Green tea,
too, is subject to more forms of adultera-
ton, over 200 methods being employed to
that end Besides, it is cured in copper
pans and is always more or less impreg
mated with copper dust. These pans are
none too clean, either. as the growers care
nothing what kind of stuff they palm off
on people so unfortunate as to have been
born outside of the fowery kingdom
They term all other races 'barbarians.'
Green tea is dried in the sun; black by ar
tificial heat
"The best tea obtained in this country
is that imported by Chinese dealers. They
get it from some one they know in the old
country at less price than it will be sold
to foreigners. They can secure a better
grade than other buyers, because they
know what they are buying, and it is use
less for their countrymen to try to impose
upon them

Lob.tera searee and shrewder.
Kew York SUM-


This Is a bad season for lob5ters The
prolonged winter and the rough weather
have proved destructive to the expected
atch, and the supply in the market is
mall. poor. and watery. "In cold
weather expect no Holsters, is maxim
of the lobster fisherman that has been
amply verified this year. About 20
cents a pound for the poorest kind is the
price now.
"The rough, cold weather keeps them
in deep water, an old fisherman said.
They dare not come in, for fear of being
dashed on the rocks or left high and dry
on the beach Besides, it is warmer with
twenty or thirty feet of water above them
than in the shallow places. The few that
come in can find hardly anything to eat
They are living chiefly on oysters. They
lie on an oyster bed, and when an oyster
opens his mouth they just drop stone IN,
so that he can't close it again, Then they
sity has made them shrewder this season
than ever before.

Lord Justice Knight Bruce refused to
hear a barrister because he wore beard
1t is said that Cynoisius, the tyrant,
singed his beard off with hot walnut
shells.
Archbishop Tate forbade one of the

tache.
False hair was worn ages ago. 1t was
preached against by the fathers of the

tiLued more or less so ever since.
Red hair in general. was an aversion to

At Charleston. S. c., there is a method
of preparing tiles, which, it is claimed,
renders them suitable for paving road
ways subjected to the heaviest traffic. By
this process the bricks or tiles are first
heated in an oven, where they are Gov

plunged into melted asphaltum, and then
placed on racks, where the excess can flow
from the blocks.

"Mss Katie Putnam played again last night
before the largest audience which has as
sembled here this season. Flaws may be,
and often are, picked in the playing of the
most finished artists, but the best means,
after all, of the Judgment of the merits of an
actor or an actress, is by enquiring of the
public. An artist who touches the hearts of
the public, who satisfies Its desire for amuse-
ment, possesses merit. whether il can be
demonstrated by the value of criticism or
not. This faculty Miss Putnam possesses in
a degree far above the average and to an ex-
tent that entities her to rank among the
stars of the American stage. Applying this
rule to the performance of last night she Is
