The bulk of the entire coffee prod
uct comes from Brazil, which has a
peculiarity of its own. These coffees
are harsh and rank, as compared with
the milder kinds 1t was estimated that
Brazil once furnished 50 per cent. of the
entire coffee product Of the world. There
have been of late years one or two
partial failures of the crop in Brazil,
which accounts for the high price of cof-
fee here. You win probably remember
that coffee was very low from "a to 81;
in fact the prices were so very low that
Brazilian planters did not have the ber-
ries picked it bringing them in debt. In
consequence, they allowed their planta-
tions to run down, which in part ac-
counts for the present shortage. .-Chica-

Grandma's Idea of a 81 900 Salary.

E. w. Winter, general manager of the
Omaha railway, enjoys a good story as
much as any man l know, particularly
if 1t be ON himself. He tells the follow
ing tale with great gusto: "My grand
mother is dear, innocent lady, who
lives up in Vermont. She was telling a
visitor all about the family, one day, and
when my turn came she said, Now,
there's Erne, he's doing right well, and
her voice sank impressively. They do
say he's getting as much as a thousand
dollars year, though don'ts see how he
can earn all that money honestly. -

There is a dog in Chester, Pa, which
will never walk when there is a chance
to jump on a street car and ride. He is
black Newfoundland. Much of his
time is spent at the stables. Although
his home is only two squares away he
never walks to it, but waits for a car 60
ing that way, on which he jumps. He
often goes off on a pleasure trip, riding
to the different sections Of the city on
different cars, always sitting on the
curbstone until the car he wants comes
along, showing remarkable intelligence
in allowing to pass him those cars which
branch off in directions contrary to the
one he wishes to take.-Pittsburg Dis

A novel arrangement for securing an
abundance of soft light together with
perfect ventilation has been installed in
an opera house in Chicago. The device
is, in form, similar to a large parasol,
eighteen feet in diameter, the perfora-
tions in the cover permitting the escape
of the vitiated atmosphere. The rod
and handle are formed to permit the use
of gas jets if necessary, while from the
tips of each rib incandescent bulbs hang,
giving IL perfect and powerful circle of
light Another feature is the use of in
candescent bulbs, arranged in wire net,
to indicate the name of the company
playing. Chicago Letter.

A colored man named Joseph Saun-
ders was employed to dig a well for a
farmer near Augusta, Me. The farmer
beat him down to half wages, but after
going ten feet down the digger struck a
jug with $3.50 in gold in it and took a
skip. The farmer then dug twenty-five
feet more, nearly broke his back, and
didn't hit anything but stones. Detroit

The scoring of the bores of modern

The scoring of the bores of modern
cannon by the new powders in use is
claimed to be due to the fact that upon
ignition all of the powder is not turned
to gas, some of it remaining in a fluid
state. 1t is this latter which does the
scoring by being thrown with such force
against the metal Of the gun that the re-
sulting action is very similar to that of a
sand blast for cutting glass.

there was going to be frost to kill his

he built log heaps about his field and
kept them burning during the night, and
next morning his potatoes were untoucb-

Mrs. Louise M. Berkley, the

Olive Berkeley, is an actress of high
standing in America. She created
for the Australian public the role of
Minna in Little Lord FauDtleroy,
and so great was her success that
her performance was cIassed with
Mr.. Henry Edwards. Many press
notices gave to Mr.. Berkeley the
palm, and pronounced her perform.
ance the most artistic and best play
ed part in the piece, except the title
role.
Mrs. Berkley has appeared with
all the best stars of the present time.
Mr.. Henry Edwards, Miss Winthrop,
little Olive, and Mrs. Berkley went
out to Australia over a year ago.
Among the many souvenirs given
the little girl upon her travels, she
mostly prizes a handsome watch
presented her on the Mariposa by
Mr.. Alexander Young, in behalf of
the Honolulu passengers. The
watch bears this inscription, "Pre-

ternoon at the league grounds.
Everybody seems to have become
interested in the result of the pre-
sent game and there is hardly a
doubt large audience will fill the
grand stand. The ladies of Homo
lulu are also taking much interest in
the American national game and as
usual large attendance of the fair
sex may be expected.
Both clubs have been actively en-
gagged in practice during the past
week and close contest is an
nounced by the "knowing Ones"
The grounds are in excellent condi-
ton and the management will ar
range every possible convenience
for public comfort. The doors of
the grand stand will be opened at 2
