The AlIi1ator,s Nest.

Alligators' nests resemble haycocks more
than anything else to which they can be
compared. They average about feet IN
hight and about feet IN diameter, and are
constructed of grasses and heritage. First
the mother gator deposits one layer of eggs
on a floor of mortar, and having covered
this with a stratum of mud and heritage
about eight inches thick, lays another set OF
eggs upon that, and so on to the top, there
being commonly from 100 to 200 eggs in a
nest. With their tails they then beat down
the tall grass and the weeds, to
prevent the approach of unseen enemies
The female watches her eggs until they are
Matched by the heat Of the sun, and then
takes her brood under her own care, defend
ing then and providing for their subsist-
ence. DR.. Lutzemburg of New Orleans
once packed one of these nests for shipment
to st. Petersburg, but they Matched out BE-
fore they were started on the long voyage,
and were kept around the doctors premises,
running all over the house, up aud down
stairs, whining like young puppies.

Inspector Desvergers of the Citizens San
ftarv Association reports average quality OF
food produce in the Savannah market for
the week ending last night as follows
Dressed beef, mutton, pork, venison. dressed
and live poultry, picked beef, picket
trlpe, picked pigs feet, fresh and smoked
sausage, meat buildings, oysters and clans
of good quality.
Cold storage meats from Kansas City
arrived in excellent condition, the inspector
says, and were of particularly good quality.
He says that there we're in the market yes
terday a considerable quantity of other
cold storage meats, which did not present a
very inviting appearance, although its con-
diuon was not sufficiently objectionable to
warrant condemnation. Game is reported
good, but scarce; and fish excellent and
plentiful.
OF fruits and vegetables the inspector re-
ports green vegetables also excellent and
plentiful, dried vegetables good, green
fruits good, particularly bananas, which
| were also plentiful.
The inspector says that there is remissness
! of late in the use of water on the upper floor
| Of the market house, and the stalls thereon,
/ and that bad odors are again emanatlng
! from the cess poolopenings.

Why This Discrimination

Editor Morning NelUs: A little over
two years ago, the writer was approached
by a representative of the city, and told
that he must lay a sidewalk in front of his
unimproved lot The writer said that be
was going to erect a dwelling, in about
three months and asked that the matter be
postponed, as the sidewalk, in the first
place. would be ruined and would be of no
service TO the public, while the building
was going On. The official said, however,
that the Sidewalk must be laid at once, and
ordered a contractor to lay it. The paving
was commenced and the writer made to
nav for work that was of no benefit to any
one. for he began to build il short time,
and the work on the pavement was neces-
sarily stopped After the building was
completed the pavement was ordered to be
laid. ana has been finished over eighteen
months. If this was law for the writer,
why is 1t not equally law for
other similarly situated citizenss
This question is asked, because in
the writer's immediate vicinity, certain IN
improved lots commonly known as the
'.Old Jail lots" on Hall, Barnard, Howard
and Whitaker streets, are still without
pavements III front of them, to the lncon-
yenience of all having to pass there.
Is the paving ordinance Applicable to all
alike. or are some of our citizens above and
beyond its reach, and II 50, WHY!

FREEHOLD, N. J., April 25.-As the result of dispute between Dr. R. E. Stanwood and Ed. Lockwood, a long g-distance race took place yesterday between Gen. Charles Knights chestnut sorrel King, with a record of 2:2S14, and Old Virginny, the property of Frank Hives, d cousin of Amelie Rives

Pessimism and Optimisrn.

Pessimism may be briefly defined as des- spair endowed with personality, says 8 clergyman in the New York Tribune. In the soul of the pessimist no sun of gladness ever arises, and in his life no star of hope is visible. Pure pessimism is not only hostile to religion, but it is the very negation of all that religion stands for. Nor is cynicism much better. A cynic, it seems to me, is a man who tries to make himself out to be much worse than he is, in order to give him. self an excuse to thlnk that he is much better than he is. He is the incarnation of that dippant disbelief in goodness which utterly destroys all the enthusiasm and ideals of religion. Optimism, on the other hand, may be defined sunshine. The optimist re- gards the ills and evils of existence as tenn porary episodes. and looks upon sorrow and pain as the minor chords in the majestic diapason of life. All optimists are not neces- sarly religious, but all religious men are necessarily optimists.

FORESTERS AT WASHINGTON.
They Ask the President to Establish .
 Sound Policy for the Country.


 Sound Policy for the Country.
 WAsHINGToN, D. C., April 24.-A delega- ton of the American Forestry congress, composed of gentlemen from all parts of the country, headed by Governor Beaver of Pennsylvania, who is president of the congress, waited upon the President for the purpose of engaging his attention in be half of sound forest policy for the United States. Senator Hawley accompanied the delegation and earnestly commended the objects of the memorial presented.
 The points urged by the delegation in presenting the memorial, which were em phasiZed by Governor Beaver as all import ant, were briefly stated as follows: There are three principal reasons for enacting Legislation in behalf of the public timber domain.
 First, the moral obligation of the Govern ment to give settlers an opportunity to sat- isfy in a legitimate manner their necessities for lumber;
 Second, the desirability of saving to the nation an annual material loss of from ten to twenty millions of dollars occasioned by fire and theft from the public domain;
 Third, the broader consideration, that by the denuding of the Western mountain slopes on which this national property is situated, favorable waterfow and soil con ditions are endangered, thus iniu1ing the agricultural prospects of the land at the foot of the mountain ranges.
 The President listened with interest to the remarks of the visitors.

The amount of scrap iron paid for and not re- ceived amounted to 1,493, ,O15 pounds. The fraud has been oarried on since 1866.

Fellow Fever Opens the Season of 1889
 at Sanford. Fla.
 JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April 25-Dr. Daniel, president of the State Board of Health, states that Mrs Demont, of Sanford, died of yellow fever. It was Q sporadic case, not of virulent or infectious type. Mrs. Demont had been in poor health for a month, and had been really ill two weeks There are no other cases in the family. The house is isolated, and all precautions have been taken.
 Sanford has voluntarily embargoed it's people from leaving town for fifteen days, and has prohibited traffic from D. n. to 7:30 a. III. There are no fears of an epidemic.
 The new State health law provides for a most effective system of reports and visita- hons in all parts of the State, and there are ample funds for carrying it out. All that can be done by the most eminent medical experts, clothed with despotic power, will be done this season to prevent any appear. ance of yellow fever epidemic.

A CREDIT TO HIS COUNTRY.
Jesse Hartshorn Pays the Government an
 Uncollectable Tax.


 BOSTON, April 25.-Collector J John E. Fitz. gerald was taken aback this morning when Jesse Hartshorn walked into his office and insisted upon paying to the Government 5000, which sum he had learned should have been paid twenty one years ago by his father.
 It happehed in this way: Upon the death of his father MT. Hartshorn, who was one of the legatees, endeavored to settle up the estate and it was not until within a few days that the property was divided. He found that there were goods in the estate upon which a tax of 5000 should have been paio as far back as twenty-one years ago, and he immediately made arrangements to pay over that sum to the Government Col lector Fitzgerald could find no record, and was of the opinion that no person knew that the property had escaped taxation.
