THE ooRECERR LIME FRUIT.
The Poor Mans Medicine, the Rich
Mans ConserVe.

Mans Conserve.
Mr.. Gugie Bourquin has sent to the fruit
bureau of the MOANING NEWS a sample of
this seasons growth of Ogeechee lines
gathered from one OF his plantations on the
Ogeechee road. The fruit, although quite
sour, is considered the most desirable for
preserving, and commands good prices in
the market. They are brought to the local
market during September by the colored
people from along the Georgia coast
The fruit of the Ogeechee lime tree is,
when ripe, of a red color. but it is best for
preserves just about the time it begins to
turn. The colored people eat them in the
raw state, as they say the fruit has virtues
OF an anti-malarious character, which
physicians corroborate, and during the
month of September, when the malaria
rises from the rank vegetation OF the
swamp regions, it looks as if the Ogeechee
lime fruit is one of the wise provisions of
nature 30 ward Off malarious attacks.
The Ogeechee lime tree ~ cdpitdtd) is a
species of the tupelo, aud found only near
the Georgia and Florida coast. Its sterile
flowers are capitate, or in a head, and the
solitary fertile ones are succeeded by the
fruit, which grows to the length of an inch
or slightly more. A lemon is sweet by
comparison with the OEeechee lime

Safety from a Presidential scourage.

Safety from Presidential Scourage.
Protection from the disease, not a medicinal
agent which merely checks the paroxysms, is
the grand desideratum wherever the endemic
scourge OF malaria prevails. Quinine does not
afford this protection. The chief reason why
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has won such i'm
nense popularity is. that 1t prepares the sys-
tenn to re sist the malarial pest. This it does bv

digestion on a sound basis. Not only is fever
and ague prevented, but the worst types of the
disease are conquered by it. Such is the only
conclusion to be drawn from the Overwhelming
evidences in it's favor 1t is equally ef1icacious

TEE GEORGIA TERRAPIN.
Fifteen Hundred Dozen Shipped An
nuelly For Northern Epicures-

Fifteen Hundred Dozen Shipped An
nually For Northern Epicures
One of the important Industries Of the
Georgia coast is the shipment Of the famed
saltwater or chicken terrspin, which is In
such great demand among epicures In the
north who can afford such a costly diet
The saltwater terrapin is a habitant or
the rivers, creeks and estuaries OF the sea,
and are found in tidewater only. where they
are caught with seines. The catch
ing season usually begins about
July 25, and continues until
late in the winter. Shippers vary IN their
estimate Of the annual shipment OF the
Georgia terrapin, but it is safe to say that
there are shipped from this port annually
between 200 and 500 dozen terrapins, in
what may be termed extra seasons. The
average price received is from s. to 80 per
dozen. They are shipped in barrels and
boxes in a live state, and as many as seven
to eight dozen are piled IN a barrel, and can
stand transportation without any apparent
injury.
Those who are engaged in terrapin catch
ing and shipping have inclosed pens
In which the terrapins are placed, and
they are fed upon shrimp aud crabs, given
tidewateT 20 drink and grow fat like hogs
in a pen. The floor of a terrapin pen is
bare ground, and water and food are given
them in shallow wooden troughs. When
terrapin is placed Ia a pen he is restles, and
uneasy. and for some days he takes no
nourishment, but finally ne becomes salts
fed with his environments and takes bis
lunch as regularly as If he were in
his native element. The terrapin shipping
season begins about Sept. l, but so far this
season comparatively few have gone for
ward. Terrapin shippers say that the
weather has been too warm for both catch
ing and shipping.
The salt water terrapin lives on tidewater
and salt marshes, where it hibernates 1t
is shy. swims rapidly and is quick runner.
1t is said that il terrapin be taken inland
aud given Sits liberty, no matter which
way his head may be pointed, il leaves
rapidly in the direction of the salt water
from which it was taken.
The principal market for the Georgia ter
rapin is New York although small shipments
are made to Boston, Philadelphia and Bal
timore. From New York the terrapin is
distributed to Washington City and to the
larger cities of the north and west, where
they are served at swell dinners and on
state occasions. The great restaurants, like
Delmonico's, keep terrapin in season. and
large prices are charged for them when
served.
The larger terrapin pens are at Thunder
bolt, but there are quite number OF per-
sons along the Georgia coast who catch
terrapin and ship them direct to customers
in the north. There is more than one
advantage in penning the terrapin, the
principal one being that they do not have
to be buried to a weak market, but when
sent forward they com nand good prices.

Denis ]. Murphy, who took quite an in
terest in securing the establishment of the
southeastern Plaster Company in this city,
has been appointed sales agent for the ada
mant wall plaster, which the new factory on
River street is now manufacturing. While
it is comparatively new here, having been
introduced only in the last few weeks. it has
been in general use in the north and west
for the last five years, and is fast taking
the place of the old time plaster. Churches,
railway buildings, theaters hospitals,
hotels, large manufactures and private
residences in all the principal cities of the
north and west in recent years have been
plastered with the adamant wall plaster
1t is said that this adamant is now being
manufactured by twenty companies, located
in thirty states of the union, and has been
applied on thousands of buildings, both pub
lie and private, to the satisfaction Of archi-
tects, owners and builders. 1t is said
MIR. Murphy is to be congratulated that he

IN AND ABOUT THE CITY
AN EYE ON TIE PosroFFroE.
Night Visit of Two Government In
sDecCOrA


Night Visit OF Two Government In
spectors-
Postoffice Inspectors F. d. Peer and J. w.
Bulla of the Chattanooga district. which
includes the states of Georgia, South Caro-
lima, Alabama, Florida and Tennessee. have
been inspecting the postofice in this city
and left last night for Atlanta.
To MORNING NEWS reporter the In
spectors said that they were here upon their
regular business, that there was nothing
special In regard 20 the office, and thar it
was against the rules 70 give information
concerning their work.
1t is learned, however, from other sources
that the visit of the inspectors this week was
not the first one Of the kind. but they were
in Savannah about three weeks ago, quietly
looking after the conduct OF the Office, hav-
ing been called here as a result OF COM
plains which had been lodged against the
administration Of the Office. Last Tuesday
night the inspectors visited the office after
all the force had left the building but the
porter, and il is said that they made a very
searching inspection of the office, aud, as
result OF their inspection while here, it Is
reported that they said that they found
lack of system in the management of
the office, and fragmentary parts
of letters which should either have been
returned to the writers or sent TO the dead
letter office. They also stated. it is said,
that the general internal condition Of the
office was not as cleanly as it should be. 1t
is also said the clerical force were required to
make statements under oath relative to the
conduct of the Office. 1t is understood that
the postmaster and attaches Of the Office
denied the correctness Of the charges made
by the inspectors.
The Investigation. IL is thought, has for
its object an excuse for removing Post
master Lamar before his term of Office
expires TO make room for a republican, as
the republicans are clamoring for change,
no less than three applicants for postmaster
having filed their papers at the postoffice
department at Washington.

guilty man. In view Of the conflicting
evidence and the length Of time consumed

James N. Marshall of Gambler, Fla,
who read the fruit special in Mondays

bureau specimens of lemons grown in his
grove, which upon examination are found
to be free from pith, which is the principal

at is only in especially favored spots in
Florida that such fruit eau be grown.
These lemons were grown on natural ham
mock land, sandy loan. The growers of
