Thu WAR OUTLOOK.

The era of rough language SO
long INDUCED in by Russia and
England appears to have passed
and now the two powers are pulling
off their coats a. if they really
meant fight. It is established be-
yond = doubt that the report Of the
Russian commander of the attack
on the Afghan forces was . tissue
of the most ingenious falsehsods.
If this fellow can 6ght IS he lies,
he could clean out all Europe. All
England is bristling with prepare
tions, the squadrons are forming,
the arsenals are crowded with work
men and the transports with troops
A feet has been ordered to the
Black Sea, and it is feet of such
magnitude that it can soon clean
the sea of Russian shipping.
In land campaign, England
may not fare so we'll with the Rus
sian troops, accustomed to the rig
orous climate.
The experience of Napoleon In
Russia is not a pleasant thing for
invading soldiers to contemplate.
The refusal of Spain to sell Eng
land her nen-o-war now being
manufactured in England, shows
how she stands, and now France is
showing her teeth at the British
also.
When the first roar of the guns
is borne across on the cable, the
way wheat will climb up the scale
will cause a broad agricultural grin
across the face of America, and
the iron and steel industries as
we'll as themeat packing interests,
will see better times than they
have for years.

There is lively cruaade in the
East against roller skating. and
even pulpits are attacking the
pastime on the grounds Of lmmor-
atty. The real animus Of the at
tack on the Kinks, lies in the fact
that the cheap and healthful
amusement is drawing large crowds
away from the regular theaters.
The crowds go to the rinks be-
cause they get good deal more
fun for their money. and combine
pleasure with healthful exercise.
The opening Of large, we'll man
aged skating ring in this city has
furnished an innocent reere-
alton for hundreds of people, and
we are yet to hear Of any elope-
ments springing from this full
mingling of the sexes. In the
East an attempt has also been
made to prove that it is unhealth
full, simply because few fools who
tried to skate thousand miles in
. week, and over-did the thing.
An attempt has also been made to
prevent the opposite sexes from
skating in the same rink. Of
course everybody knows that man
might as we'll waltz with another
man as skate without girl, and
the rising generation will be
pleased to note that such Puritan
ical bills did not become laws.
The best physicians agree that
roller skating tends to develop the
chest, and muscles of the legs. A
girl with thin calves will do we'll to
improve her anatomy by skating,
and a girl whose calves are full and
plump can keep them so by skating
IN hour every day. In q new
State like Nevada, where the
weather is wet and windy, the
necessity Of these physical i'm
provements need not be dwelt
anon here.

The Democrats feel so certain Of
success everywhere, since Cleve-
lands election that they now pro-
prose to take an active hand in
State, county and municipal cleo
tions and now boast that they have
enough Democrats registered to
carry the city election. They ar
que that the carrying Of this cleo
ton will create throughout the
county the Impression that every
body is going over to their ranks
and this will help them in the next
county election. Remember that
Carson City is the old standby Of
the Republican party, and it would

THE PINE APPLE TRADE.
Where the Shaggy Pines Come from and
Where They GO.


"The pine apple season has about
closed,' remarked a dealer in tropical
fruit TO a NEWS reporter yesterday.
There have been comparatively few pine
apples imported 10 Savannah from nassau
and other Bahama ports during the past
two years, though several cargOes are
usually sent from those ports b. Balti-
more. New York aud other Northern
points every season. The foreign fruit
has. however, found the Florida pines
formidable competitor for popular
favor during the past year or
two, the American-grOwn product
being freeher and in better condition
upon its arrival, and equally as large ana
as sweet as any that il imported. There
are comparatively few pine apples con-
sumed in savannah, hut great many are
sent from here 10 the interior cities OF
Georgia, and to other points inland. The
greater portion Of the Florida crop il
shipped through from hey West, TAMPA
and Cedar Key 10 Northern cities. The
demand is rapidly Increasing from year
to year. The fruit is grown in the
Southern portion of Florida, but
the choicer pines received
on the market during the past season
were grown near Key West. Manatee and

mand good price, the figures at the be-
ginning Of the season beng about S3 per
dozen, and later as low AS 70 cents. The
average price for the season is from 81 -

pines received from the neighb0r-
hood Of Tampa average about five pounds
in weight. There are a few which weigh
more, while many received on the market
are small, weighing about a pound. The
pine apple industry is getting TO be an eX-
tensive one in South Florida, the lands
and climate being especially adapted to the
plant. One OF the great drawbacks in the
way OF remunerative cultivation OF the
pines has been the lack of railway trans
portatiOn. The grower and shipper sent
his fruit to market by vessel, and as the
voyage was comparatively a long one, at
least for the fruit, it had to be picked
green. Hence the Northern markets
received little or none Of the fully matured
fruit. The extension of rail way lines by
the Plant system into South Florida
enables the grower to deliver the fruit at
Savannah several days earlier, whence it
is sent TO Western or Northern markets
in a few hours. The fruit early in the
season commands as much as 81 and IS
per barrel, while the freight from south
Florida is about 81 10 per barrelp
