A BAD OPINION OF BERMUDA.

10 Grows Nothing but Onions to Perr"c-
tion. and Its Fish Are Not Good.
Bermuda brings to the minds of most
people a vision Of tropical luxuriance.
II is not a tropical island at all; il is
only s~emi-tropical. The tropical trees
and plants here, with the exception of
the banana, live Just as long as they
are cherished and watched with care
full culture. There is nothing spon.
taneous in their growth, and they never
spread to much extent, even under the
aiding process.
There are a limited number of palm
trees of the different varieties, and a
few handsome ones are among them.
The palmetto and pawpaw are seen.
The India rubber and the calabasll tree
are represented by. a few specimens,
! and the former in one or two cases has
grown to great size. But none Of these
trees looks as if it belonged in Bermuda.
Their appearance is very much as If
they were set out in one of our own
gardens in the summer season. ]
scarcely saw an orange or lemon tree
on the islands. In fact there is but one
tree that seems indigenous to the soil
of Bermuda. 1t is the cedar. This
grows to a considerable size, and 1t
grows spontaneously. II there is any
other tree that does it escaped my OBJ.
servation.
The soil everywhere is thin, composed
of a red loan, and is not fertile. In
stead of the luxuriant richness / expect
ed, ! find the islands barren. They grow
nothing in abundance but the onion.
Not even grass is raised to any extent.
The tomato comes to useful maturity
and a limited number of potatoes are
raised, of which white and sweet are
both good. but the islands import every.
thing else. Aside from the banana,
which Is smaller In size than that to
which we are accustomed, there is no
fruit here which has not been imported.
l have not seen a Bermuda orange OF
lemon, to say nothing of figs or pome'
granates.
An islander would almost have to in.
quire what a strawberry was If he saw
it; the peach, the apple, the plum are
here only by importation. You see
everything in air and climate to suggest
fertility, and the soil denies it all. Der
muda is far beyond Boston in the pos
session of fruits, vegetables, meats and
game for the table, except always the
all pervading onion. They do not even
keep cows enough to supply the PEG.
pie, and for their eggs and poultry they
send very largely to the continent. ]

p~ensation. Here, too. was disappoint.

like as good in Bermuda S either

Bismarck's Presence Of Mind.

nssuA1fC8 HrcsSnco " Ahuus
One of the stories now going the
rounds tells of Bismarck's clever ruse
to ave a friend from death. It seems
that Bismarck and this friend were out
hunting one day, and the friend incau.
tiously walked of into a morass from
which he could not extricate himself.
Feeling himself gradually sinking, the
unfortunate fellow cried out to Bis.
marck: For Gods sake come to my
help, or ] shall be lost in this quick.
sand" Bismarck saw that the danger
was great, but he retained his presence
of mind. NO" cried Bismarck, II
will not venture into the morass, for
then ] should be lost, too. IL is evi.
deaf that your end is inevitable; there
fore, to relieve you from the cruel
agony Of slow death. ! will shoot YOU
Therefore Bismarck coolly leveled
his rifle at his laundering friend.
Keep quiet" cried Bismarck; Il
cannot take correct aim. Remember
that in order to put you at once out OF
misery l must shoot you through the
head
The shocking brutality Of this sug.
gestion drove all fear of the morass out
Of the friends mind; the unlucky chap
thought only of lodging Bisinarck's
bnllet. and with this in mind he strug.
gled 20 violently that finally, by al.
most superhuman efforts, he succeeded
in laying hold Of the root of an old
tree and thereby he rescued himself.
1T was your presence of mind that
saved me-" he confessed TO Bismarck

Compressed Air Chiscl.

The compressed air chisel was first
brought into use in this country. An
improved form Is now being used In Eu-

metal workers. The economy Of labor
compared with the hand chisel is four

face cut by the compressed air chisel is
cleaner and smoother than is possible
with the hand chisel. This is especially
