A Novel Social Entertainment.

Another novelty in the line of social
entertainment is what might be called
the reminiscent lecture. 1t was invented,
| believe. by q lady of excellent family,
advanced in years and impoverished by
financial m~isfortunes, but whose social
position is beyond assault. She has
added considerably to her income by de-
nvering drawing room talks upon her re-
collections of american society In the past,
to subscribers, at $40 a course, out Of the
ranks Of the society of the present. Now
and then, when she stops to take a breath,
a pianist plays an air adapted to the oc-
casion- This performer Is her only ex-
pense. and as pianlsts are cheap Just now,
he cannot cut deeply into thu lecturers
profits. At any rate, her gains during
the past winter seem to have been tempt
ing enough TO induce others to enter the
lists, and several are mentioned who will,
during the season to come, inform us
what the antecedents of Mr.. McAllister's
select clan used to say and do In the good
old times before the war. To Judge from
the couple of lectures that / listented to
last winter. society in the past was neither
as lively nor as interesting as that Of to-
day. though 1t was certainly dull enough
TO be more respectable .-Alfred Trumbls

1t is probable that the cultivation Of
the cocoanut for profit -ili always. in

Keys and mainland south Of the Caloosa-
hatchie river. though the palm will con-
tinue to be grown for its great beauty, or

eve as far north as the latitude of Tampa
and Cape Canaveral. The c~ocoanuts pro-
duced in Florida arc q trife smaller than
those of the tropics, and are not con-
sidered so valuable for seed, hence most
OF those used for planting are procured
from Central America, more especially
from the Bay Islands (Utilla. Bonaco and
Ruatan) and mainland of Honduras.
The nuts that have not sprouted on the
voyage are sometimes planted in nursery
beds and transplanted when a year or
eighteen months old. Only q small per
cent. fails to terminate, though some
times the sprouts are a year or more in
appearing. The distance apart ut which
they are planted varies from fifteen to
twenty-five feet; twenty feet is the usual
distance. The only cultivation given on
the Keys is the occasional cutting of tho
weeds and underground in spring and
fall. There is a popular saying that a
bearing cocoa palm viii produce one nut
for each day throughout the year. but
this is a little overdrawn, the best trees
producing about 200 nuts per year

The holiday business this year promises
to be quite large and most of the city
merchants are making displays remark
able for variety and richness. A great
many people have already selected their
presents and had them stored away for
presentation when the proper time comes.
The bulk of these packages alone indi-
cate the extent of business which has
already been done The harvest for the
merchants, however, will occur during
this entire week and the early part of
next. Those having anything special to
offer tho public should not tail to do so at
once through the medium of the news
papers. The time remaining in which to
dispose Of the holiday goods is
now limited and the very most
should be made OF it. II you
have goods to sell don't be afraid to let
the public know the fact and il they are
cheaper and better than your neighbor
can show ell the better for you.

SIX new states are to be added to the
thirty eight already in the Union, says
the Chicago Times. Dakota comes 10 as
two, Montana, Washington, Utah aud
New Mexico as one each. One of the
Dakota states, Montana aud New Mexico,
will probably be Democratic, and the
other three Republican. This is a fair
political adjustment of the problem, and
if the Republicans inl that they have
been to some extent ~outwitted they must
put their chaznn on ice. If an effort is
made to include Wyoming the chances
are that the entire matter will have to lay
over until next session.

RATES OF spyERTIsING.
FINISH TIE JOB.

Shall the water works system be com
plcted or not this season? is the question
which will come up for settlement in the
city council this evening. We have now
secured en- abundant and permanent sup
ply of good water, but, as under the old
scheme. it is still conducted into the big
storage reservoirs north OF the city. ln
winter this circumstance makes compare
lively little difference, although the sup,
ply is not as pure as it would be under a
different and better system. In summer
il makes a good deal Of difference.
Vegetable matter grows in abundance
along the edges of the reservoirs and the
water soon becomes im~preguated with
vegetable mater rendering it deleterious
10 health and altogether useless for many
domestic purposes,
To complete the new scheme and give
il the greatest possible utility it is nov
proposed to make direct connection be-
tween the city water mains and the main
which connects with the city dam five
miles north Of the city. In this manner
the water will flow in all its purity directly
IN tue city without passing through the
lnke at all This will obviate the neces
>ity Of buy ing artesIan water for drinking
aud other purposes during the summer
months.
City Engineer Miller estimates that this
proposed work will cost the city Sl2, 900.
No doubt when il is finished, like all such
undertakings, it will cost more han the
estimate. aud, in the light Of the fact that
this increased expense will place the city
taxes at about the same rate next year as
they were this, the whole question be-
comes one IF whether the people are will
ing to bear the burthen in consideration of
receiving good water.
The LEADER IS emphaticaliy in favor OF
having this work done as speedily and
economically as possible. For the past
lew years the difficulty of securing a pure
and ample water supply has been the
bane of the town. 1t was first thought
that the expense attending this undertake
ing would be simply enormous, but a
plan was hit upon by which the city Sc
cures an abundant supply of pure water
at a cost that IS comparatively %trifing.
Until direct connections are made the
peosIc Of this town will never completely
realize the benefits of the system. The
work is nov in a half completed state and
Tor all practical purposes We are in The
same position that we have been for sew
cral years.
We do not believe that this is a time
for hesitancy on The part OF the city
council aud the work should be com
menced at once and pushed to compile
ton as speedily, and at the same time as
economically as possible. The cost to the
individual taxpayer will be less than what
he now pays for a~rtesian water, the gen.
cral health of the city will be improved,
If that be possible, and visitors to the
city will have another reason to be pleased
with what ,hev4fnd here.

We offer no apology for devoting so much time
and attention TO this much neglected class of
diseases, believing that no condition of human
ity is too wretched to merit the sympathy and
best services OF the profession to which we be-
long, as many are innocent sufferers, and that
the physician who devotes himself
them from worse than death, is no less a
philanthrophist and a beneiactor to his race
than the surgeon or physician who by close ap-
fession. And, fortunately for humanity ,theday
is dawning when the false philanthrophy that
condemned the victims OF folly or crime, like
the lepers under the Jewish law to die uncared
for, has passed away.
