in Chicago, butchers would not pay any
advance and drovers were compelled toac-
cept last Mondays prices, except for the
medium grades, which generally brought

mainly to the large shipments of dressed
beef from Chicago, which at current low
prices displaces the local supply and thus
influences a very dull market for cattle

price, but when the fruit is putup at auction, the
buyers are compelled to bid against each other,
and the price is regulated by the actual market
demand for the fruit. The sales in the different
cities will be conducted by the stockholders OF the
company, and shipments from Florida will be
governed by the advces from the different distrib
uting points.
The finances OF the company are to be conduct
ed in manner that will return to stockholders
interest of per cent. the capital invested; /;
and to reimburse the investors for the risk they
run per cent. OF the gross sales is to be paid to
them. After deducting all of the expenses OF
handling the fruit and managing the business, the
remaining funds are to be divided per capita
among the producers OF the fruit.
THE GROWERS PROFITS.
Thus the grower will be assured a net price Of
81 per box for the crop on the trees and will
stand chance of realizing dividend in addition
if the season is prosperous one. Dealers claim
that under thepresent methods the net returns to
the growers average less than ST. per box. SO that
the scheme will be to their advantage.
Several fruit merchants who were called upon
by a Mail and Express reporter professed COM
pleteignorance of the whole scheme but Mr. E. L.
Goodsell. a Park Place fruit merchant who
handles large portion OF the Florida crop, ad-
mltted that the subject OF a comDlne Is Delng aG-
tated. He said that only the leading fruit men OF
half dozen of the largest cities were to be let n
and that the intention is not so much to make
money for the members Of the combination rs to
conduct the business in uniform manner, SO
that growers, shippers and handlers could realize
a fair profit. He denied that the affair was any
thing like the Sugar Trust, and added that the
production is not to be restricted, butencouraged
and that although the entire crop is to be
bought, it is not for the purpose of cornering the
fruit, butto sell it to the better advantage OF the
grower.

FoR THE FLORIDA AGRIcULTUR1sT.
The Florida Beggar Weed as Forage
and Fertilizer.

The columns of the FLORIDA AGRICULT-
URIsT have borne testimony to the Florida
beggar weed as food for beast and plant,
and l desire to rise and state my expert
ence with the weed during the years 1887
and 1888. While residing in Palatka in
the year 1886 man from the southern
part of Georgia said to me: 'sThe people
of South Florida ought to get the seed OF
the Florida heggar lice (that is what he
called it) and SOW it in all of their groves.
for it is the best fertilizer that grows out
of the soil in Southern Georgia and
Western Florida, and cattle and horses
are so fond of it that they will leave
everything else to eat it," This state
ment led me to make further inquiry in
regard to the weed, and every person
that was thus enquired of, who was
familiar with the weed, bore similar
testimony. procured one bushel of the
seed and had it sown over fourteen acres
of grove land in the month of January,
1887. l let the weeds that grew in the
middle go to seed, and in the year 1888
had fine crop of beggar weed on the
most OF my grove.
l fed my muleth beggar weed for four
months last summer, during which time |

oats or hay In the middle OF October /
fertilized a small orange tree (two feet
high) by digging trench around it. and
burying green beggar weeds in the trench.
In three weeks it began to put on a new
growth, and the first of February, 1889,
measured over five feet of wood that had
grown in a little over three months, and
that in the late fall and early winter,
when the orange tree does, usually, but
little growing. At the same time l fer
tilted two small peach trees and both of
them put on a new growth.
The result of this experiment is so en-
couraging intend next July to fertilize
with the beggar weed my entire grove. I
am also sofavorably impressed with the
value of the Florida beggar weed that /

ARCHITECT.

ARCHlTEcT.
Nothing has changed more rapidly in
the western country than the character
Of buildings being erected from year to
year. The old haphazard manner Of
erecting buildings regardless Of style,
durability or kind Of material employed
has given place TO buildings erected ac-
cording to latest and best designs. This
change has been brought about BY ex-
perienced architects who have come from
eastern cities and located at points il
the west where the building operations
were sufficiently active to insure renum-
erative employment. A number Of fine
buildings in any city is always matter
Of pride to her citizens, and in this res
pect Livingston is the possessor Of g
number that would be credit to city
ten times it's size. OF these the largest
and finest have been designed by, and
erected under the supervision Of, Liv
ingston's architect, I. j. Galbraith, the
character Of whose work is rapidly build
ing an enviable name for him in his pro
fession throughout the northwest.

st. Paul, Minnesota, in 1871 as wholesale
dealers in liquors and cigars. They con-
tinued business in that city until the
spring Of 1879 when they opened the
Miles City establishment, removing
thereto permanently in 1880. In the
autumn Of 1882 this firm opened a branch
store on Clarke street in this city. In
1883, finding their business had increased
to such an extent that new quarters
were necessary, they erected their pres
emit brick building on Park street, which
they have since occupied as a retail
clothing and wholesale liquor house.
The business Of this firm has, however,
increased to such an extent of late years
that even their present commodious
quarters are altogether too small, hence

SHE STOLE HER OWN CHILD.
A SENSATIONAL KIDNAPPING CASE.
Mrs. Celia Thatcher Bushes Into Crowded
Chicago school Room and Forcibly
Carries on Her TweIve-Year-Old
Daughter and Escapes.

CHICAGO. June 27.--The Hayes public school
was the scene of q sensational case OF kidnap.
ing yesterday afternoon. Hattie, the twelve
year-old daughter of John and Celia Thatcher,
was stolen by her own mother. The Thatchers
were married in Chicago thirteen years ago
Three years after the marriage Mr.. Thatcher
gained suit for divorce, and the court awarded
him the custody OF the child, Hattie. then two
years OF age. Mr. Thatcher gave the little girl
into her grandmother's care. At the close OF
the public school term one year ago Mrs.
Thatcher, who had made many efforts TO obtain
possession of the child, endeavored TO abduot
her from the school yard. The attempt
unsuccessful, as the child was afraid Of her
mother and refused TO 60 with her.
Yesterday afternoon, shortly before school
closed, a carriage was driven up to the Hayes
school and a woman alighted. She entered
the school building and went directly to room
No. g The teacher responded to her knock,
and the woman said she was Mrs Thatcher
and asked to see her daughter Hattie, but tbs
girl refused to 60 to the door. Mrs. Thatcher
then apparently went away About five min
utes later the door opened and Mrs. Thatcher
dashed into the room. She seized the little
girl around the waist and started for the door
Miss Harmon interrupted her at the door, and
made determined resistance. Mrs Thatcher
was much larger and more powerful than
the teacher, and succeeded in getting
the door partially open. Then Miss
Harmon called for the pupils To
assist her and they came in a BODY. Just at
this moment young man wearing a heavy
mustache entered the room, and, throwing Miss
Harmon and the children 10 side, took the
struggling child from its mothers arms and
rushed down the stairway, followed BY ths
mother. The man choked the child so she
could not scream The cabman stood with the
door of the vehicle open and they entered hur-

NOT ALL PLEASURE.
Visit of Platt and AIger to Alaska-They
Want the Seal Fisheries Contract.

Visit of PIatt and AIger to Alaska-They
Want the Seal Fisheries Contract.
NEW YORK, July 1.-The World says: "Poli-
tics and pleasure is SAID TO have inspired the
Platt-Alger excursion to Alaska. Shrewd OBJ
servers have found another reason-that of
hard, practical business Upon reflection
the latter explanation appears to be
the most reasonable. There is good
authority for the statement that
Messrs. Alger and Platt have their eyes wide
open for the contract covering the seal fisheries
in Behring sea, which has been granted the
Alaska commercial company. The contract
between the government and the Alaska COM
mercial company will expire in May, 1890.
This is the last year the Commercial company
will have the right to take seals in the Behring
sea unless their contract is renewed. The seals
are taken in the spring and in the fall. 1t will
take a new company several months to get into
shape to continue the work Of taking the seals,
so an early decision on the part of the govern
ment in this matter Is anticipated. Under the
existing laws the letting of the contract is lett
entirely to the discretion of the secretary OF
the treasury Mr. Window will probably make
known his decision before Jan. l.
Why, it may be asked, should Messrs. Platt
and Alger take the trouble to 60 TO Alaska
when the man who has the power to give them
the contract resides in Washington? One
answer given is that they wish to investigate
the extent of the seal industry before engaging
in it. 1t is not probable that the government
will re-let the contract the same favorable
terms as were granted in 1870, and Mr.. Platt and
Mr.. Alger will be able TO bid more intelligently
after having looked over the field. Il is not
likely that the seals will be exterminated for
great many years to come, but ordinary busi-
ness prudence would induce Platt and Alger TO
look into the matter very thoroughly before
embarking in it.
at is known that the Alaska commercial
company is making strenuous efforts to obtain
a renewal of the contract. The plum is such
a rich one that there are already dozen or
more applicants in the field. Whether Secy.
Window viii advertise for proposals is not
known.
"Millions have been realized out of the
Alaska seals and there are millions yet in sight.
The question is, who will get the plum? The
return of Alger and Platt will be awaited with
interest"
