MATE.
Not Of Chess, but OF Tea.

From the Garden and Forest.
At the Paris Exposition many of the South
American republics show specimens of the
product known locally as Yerba Mate or Pa.
raguayan tea, and derived from the terrified
leaves and stalks of different species of ilex.
It is exhibited In packets and in original
bales of green hide. This is the dietetic bev-
erage of about 20, ,000, 900 in South America,
and its popularity is shown by the exhibits
in the various pavilions of the Argentine Re-
public, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Chilli, Boz
livia, &c. 1t is difficult to get at any relia-
BILE returns as to the entire traffic of this COM
modify, the production of which is carried
on in such desultory and wide manner. and
extends over SO vast an area of wild country,
where the holly trees flourish.
In the Argentine Republic the consump-
tion is over 81, ,000, 900 pounds, against &, ,00O-
duction of mate is about 5000, 900 pounds,
from Brazil there is an export of 60. 900. 900
pounds to neighbofing States, while the local
consumption is about half as much This Is
singular in the great coffee producing centre
of the world, which sends into commerce an
nually more than half the entire production
of coffee. Strong efforts are being made to
open trade with 1t IN Europe, especially IN
France, where shops advertize and recon-
mend it. Whether this succeeds remains to
be seen, looking at the increased production
of tea and the enormous increase in its sale
in Europe.
Approaching in its chemical composition
to coffee and tea, it is asserted that it does
not cause wakefulness or prevent sleep. In
the rural districts as well as in the smaller
towns, this beverage is considered regular
form Of diet, and not, like tea, mere &C
compartment to the breakfast table. 1t is
sweetened with sugar until it almost becomes
q syrup. It is sold at I'd. to Id. per pound,
and one pound will produce twenty quarts of
infusion. 1t is sometimes favored with ein-
namon, orange peel or lemon juice.

COMMUNICATIONS.

The marett Be4uest to She City.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
1t is unscrutable to nae that any question
should arise about the accepting of this
noble, and generous gift Of my friend Mar.
cit.
It's intention is plain. What does il
meant
It means one Thousand tons of coal each
year, and much more besides for the warmth,
comfort, and relief of many worthy, and
aged persons, who find the winter especially,
time Of struggle and need. It offers $780,
003 to the City Of New Haven in trust, for
the worthy favor of the city, and the city
seems to hesitate.
Prof. s. e. Baldwin, representative of the
Marett family, came before the committee
with eogent words to urge upon the city this
magnificent gift. How strange that this
should be necessary. We would think those
who represent the city would gladly and
eagerly assume and feel the full obligation
involved, and also gladly meet any expense
necessary to secure the full income intact,
year by year, for those to whom It Is be-
queathed, no legal technioality, no fear Of
assuming burden should, for one moment,
obstruct the action of the city. Judge
Blake, trustee, suggested at the committee
meeting that something beside sentiment
should be considered, referring to legal
points. Let our city fathers consider we'll,
not sentiment, but reality, namely, the
worthy INDECENT ones in need Of fuel, food,

An Adventure of Archibala Forbes

An Adventure of Archibald Forbes.
Writing with reference to the Antwerp dis
aster, Mr.. Archibald Forbes relates, in Lon
don newspaper, one of his experience sillus-
strative of the harmlessness In an explosive
sense of bulk of cartridges in state of ig-
milton. He says:
"When the headquarters of Gen. Tcher-
naieff's Servian Army occupied the entrench-
ed camp of Deligrad in the summer of 1876,
a quantity Of rifle ammunition, with several
barrels of blasting powder, was stored in a
hut, or rather wigwam, with walls of waffle
and roof of leafy branches: standing in the
center of small open space in mid-camp,
surrounded By barrack- huts. hospitals, cook"
ing-places, etc. Ono evening towards dusk
the cry suddenly rose that the roof of this
primitive magazine was on fire, and there
was q temporary scare. Prompt sction on
somebody's part appeared eminently necessa-
ry, in view of the powder-barrels and the ad-
jacent hospitals, where lay immobile wound

Frederic Villiers, of the Graphic, engaged
with some Russian officers in forming buck

and concentrated my energies In throwing
off it the blazing branches.

AN INTERFERING PRoRLEM

AN INTERESTING PROBLEM.
1t is astonishing that the natural gas fields
in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and eastern
Ohio have held out as long and abundantly
as they have, and it is not surprising that
there is fear that failure Of the supply is
near. The great Pittsburg company is now
supplying nearly fifty million cubic feet a
day more than it was year ago. But at the
same time alarming reports have been COM
ing of the diminished pressure and the lss-
sened supply in many districts, where till
recently there has been the greatest abund-
ance. A few small companies in small towns
complain Of a scarcity, and have notified
their customers to return to coal. Yet even
in some Of these cases this action ia consid-
cred to be scheme to defeat municipal Leg
islatioa fixing the price of gas. In the city
of Pittsburg itself there is said to be dimi-
nished pressure, but natural explanation of
1t is found In the vastly increased corsunp-i
ton, without a corresponding increase in the
capacity of the gas mains. There is trouble,
too, in the esse of several firms, who, as a
protest against the charges of the leading
company, supplying the gas, built lines of
their own to other fields, and have since been
unable to secure a sufficient supply. The
difficulty in the case of the smaller concerns
is affirmed to be the endeavor to obtain their
supply of gas from too small an area of gas
land. These explanations are advanced by
those most interested as sufficiently account
ing for the stories of already impending
exhaustion of the gas in the natural reser.
voirs.
It will be interesting to see what happens
later. Much depends upon the continuanc.
Of the cheap fuel and light which the natura
gas companies furnish, for they are in gene
raj use. It is limited that the Pittsburg Ga
company has process in reserve to manu-
facture gas that will take the place of tn
natural product in cheapness as we'll as In al
tho uses to which the latter has been applied
while several others have devices for the us
of oil as fuel, and for the manufacture Of fue
gas from petroleum.
