CHICAGO GOT THERE.
How Sharp Dealers Smashed the Georgia
Watermelon Trust.

A statement was published some weeks ago
that trust had been formed on the Georgia
watermelon crop. The melons were shipped TO
accredited agents in all OF the large northern
cities, to be sold wholesale by auction. The
plan did not suit the ideas OF the local dealers
in Chicago and they quietly formed a counter
combination. Accordingly when the frst
Georgia melons were put up for sale there was
only one bid-a wickedly low one-for the en-
tire lot, and the melons had to go at that. Til, n
the purchaser divided up the shipment with h
fellow conspirators and sley charged full prizes
TO the small dealers and the public. thereby
making immense profits. The plan was adopt,
elsewhere, resulting in the smashing OF the
melon trust. Georgia melons ale now on tree
market, with two weeks to run.

DIED OF STARVATION,
Scarcity Of Food at Labrador as De.
scribed by q Missionary.

The Church OF England missionary at Cart
wright, Labrador, writes, under date of June 6,
as follows: 'Snow piled in heaps as heavy as at
any time in winter and ice as solid. In conse-
quence there will be long and extremely
severe winter. Many settlers along the
coast are reduced to the verge of starvation and
have been living on sculpins. mussels, &c, for a
long time.
"a party of twenty-three Esquimaux left
that neighborhOod i'll January IN search of
deer and, having found none, the whole party
died of starvation"
The letter concludes as follows: ''Passed
through trying winter and bad fall The
fishery was followed by scarcity of fur and
seals, with intense cold. In some places it has
been one OF suffering and want. but i'll no case
that have heard of so far has it ended in starva-
ton. In my own immediate neighborhood
many are existing on mussels alone. The ice was
reported to have broken up in June. and a
steamer from Newfoundland has likely landed

A Modern American Trait,

The high-pressure life of the present day and
generation is breeder Of carelessness in end

stretched and strained to the danger limit, and
until well enough" is not well at all, but very
Ill. Young America il inclined to deride that
good Old thing known as caution, and to class
1t among the traits of old fogyism, and as such
unworthy the serious attention Of wide-awake,
pushing, progressive minds So it 10 that the
demon carelessness in diverse FORMS yet of
common parentage, rides with the locomotive
engineer, hovers near the helmsman of the
ocean racer, Is close to the builder of bridges
and OF buildings, and bears the miner close
company In the depths OF the earth. Man's
mad race for wealth, his selfshness and disre-
gard for the rights and welfare of others are
the influences that result in this prevalence of
carsiessness and In the never-failing crop
OF mishap and misery which springs
tnerefrom. 1t ID . trait in human nature which
can be reached only by going to the very be-
ginning OF things, by Installing into the mind
OF the child the supreme value Of thoughtful
care In all he does The careless child becomes
the reckless, unreliable man. And there are 10
many men OF that kind that the influence of
inc careful; exact, cautious man is dominated,
overpowered, lost sight Of. But % all streams

cafeiessness which nils the land with human

liability in all he does or says- such child
wall. in after life, do something to stem the de-
stroying tide OF carelessness. A hundred sueb
children will, when they become men and

The Choctaw Lottery.

The projectors Of the Choctaw Lottery Com
pany have by no means abandoned the
scheme, and say that the announcement Of In
dian Agent Bennett that be would prevent any
drawing does not brighten them. They hold
that the United States government has
no legal right TO interfere with them, their
charter was obtained from the Choctsw council
at a regular session, and that Il was granted in
the interest of the orphans OF the Choctaw
nation. At any rate they propose 10 test the
right Of the government TO interfere with the
local affairs of the Indians. Some of the man.
ayers and owners Of the concern live in the
territory and some OF them else where
