WHERE GREEN TURTLES COME FROM
How They Are Caught and How They Are
Taken Care of in Confinement.

How They Are Caught and How They Are
Taken Care of While in Confinement.
Aldermen may come and aldermen may
go-to Canada or over the range, but "the
song Of the TURTLE the glorious green tur-
tie, will still continue to 9be heard in the
land Its very name. suggests q long
table crowned with flowers, covered with
the choicest OF viands and surrounded
with festive men, each of whom weighs
$50 pounds. 1t suggests also witty toasts
and speeches, let off to the accompanl-
ment Of popping champagne corks, fra
grant cigars and the rousing chorus W.
won't go home till morning.
The main supply of that estimable ami
nal, the green turtle, comes from Florida,
the West Indies and the shores Of Central
America n the Spanish main, although
the latter regions furnish but few. Once
in q while they are caught in warm
weather as far north as the coast of Long
island. They range in weight all the way
from 500 to 200 pounds, but the average is
from eighty to ninety pounds. They are
amphibious creatures and like their arch
enemy, a must now and then have a
breath of fresh air, or they will die. From
5000 to 5000 are annually brought to this
city, and they average to sell throughout
the year at about Is cents per pound gross
weight.
MI. Middleton a dealer in green turtle
says they are taken in nets in the southern
waters by men who make q business OF
catching them, and they are also captured
on the beaches as they come up out OF the
water to deposit their eggs. This firm
keeps them through the winter in storage
rooms well warmed and fitted with
troughs filed with sea water. They are
fed with watermelon rinds, cabbage leaves
and other green stuff, and they grow fat
in the confinement They may be thus
kept as long as required.
They ara very sensitive to cold weather
and will freeze as quickly, il exposed, rs
would a man. The flesh in appearance
resembles beef. Steaks are cut from the
shoulders, but all the rest, even TO the
shell and fiippers, goes into the soup ket-
tie. They do not bite nor snap like their
congener the swapping turtle. The shells
are of no value for making combs or orna
mental shell work. Lying on their backs
with their Hippers tied, they will take no
food, and will live about six weeks, in
ordinarily warm weather with an occa.
sional bath.-NewY York Market Journal.

look the place or the plaudits which
should have greeted the party. The ladies
laughed irreverently. So did some Of their
escorts. Every one on the avenue Joined
in the laughter, which made the finish of
the Tantivy's first trip rather farcical.
Edward G. Gilmore, the manager Of
Niblo's garden and a notorius practical
joker, was at the bottom of the scheme
which made Fifth avenue roar, and led all
the dudes who had gathered at the Bruins
wick to look Upon him as little short of
sacrilegious.
Trotting behind the swell Tantiyy on its
course down the avenue were two mules
mules with extraordinary ears; mules
closely clipped and with shining coats;
mules meek and lowly, but arrayed in
heayily-plated harness, and hitched in the
most improved four-in-hand fashion to a
most thoroughly English break. Med"
Gilmore held the lines, and fourished a
most gorgeously decorated coachman's
whip. Two colored grooms had seats of
honor behind him, and Gilmore had as his
only passenger a Chicago man, who had
picked up the team of mules out in Penn
%sy1vania for a contractor, who is to use
them as a fancy team at his country resi-
dence this summer. Gilmore looked proud
as he drove, and the single passenger looked
as if he would rather be on the sidewalk.
Being a party to such a practical joke
didn't appear to be wholly to his taste.
Gilmore paid no attention to the by
ISLANDERS, but drove on, modesty accepting
the applause bestowed. He seemed at
home in his triumphal procession and per-
fectly happy. The Tantivy drove up to the
Brunswick at preciaely $50. Two grooms
| sprang out and led the horses in front of
the main entrance. An instant later four
mules halted in the rear, with their colored
grooms at their heads. The Anglomaniacs
wondered. The American contingent en-
joyed the barlesque immensely. The
coaching party sought the seclusion of the
Brunswick parlors as quick as they could
gracefully do SO. So did Gilmore and his
friends, but the parlor they found had a
long bar and a free lunch in it.
"The only thing | regret about my first
coaching trip this season" explained Gill
more as he wiped his lips, "is that it didn't
take place last week. If the season had
only opened then ! could have had a party
of chorus girls as passengers, and then I
could have knocked out anything on the
avenue for style.-New York Times.
