Acres of Pies.

The Grand Army boys without doubt
were feted to their hearts content, ana
p New England feast is incomplete
without pie.
Two hundred thousand visitors swoop-
ed down upon US and all ate pie-no,
not all, but let us say $50, 900 tested its
dainty merits. That means at the least
estimate 100000 pies day, for while
some revel in their delights at every
meal more rest content with a tooth
some triangle at but one gastronomic
round. The bakers of the city were
alive to their opportunity. They felt
that the credit of the city and their own
future well being were at stake. Two
centuries and a half of an unbroken line
of pie eaters looked down upon them.
The figures are amazing. Four apples
make pie. About pound of other in
gradients, as -four, sugar, lard, spices
and elbow grease, complete the struct-
ure. A good 70 per cent. of all the pies
consumed were apple pies, and right on
them rests the goodly spectacle in its
full sublimity. For $4,000 pies day,
or $50, 900 for the week, $500 barrels of
apples were required.
All the boys in Boston could hardly
steal the apples in one day, even if the
old man was away at camp meeting and
the dog was dead. A barrel of flour
furnishes crust enough for 300 pies. OF
flour alone 1900 barrels were required.
A days product of one of our largest re-
fneries was used to sweeten the vast ag-
gregation. This on the apple pies alone.
There is another way to look at it. Pies
are about a foot in diameter Every one
knows that this is little less than three
quarters of square foot. The next OBJ
vious step in the figuring leads to $685.
$50 square feet. Nearly 800 feet square,
or about one-third again as large as
either of the ball gronnds-au "srneted
with pie

A BARRED WIRE SAVED HIM.
Startling Experience of a Man Look
Ing for Land in Washington.

NALLA WALLA, WASH, Sept. ID met
an ola farmer from eastern Iowa today
who is out on tour of inspection for
location. He crossed the plains in a
wagon train "way back in the fifties,"
but, not finding what he wanted, he
wandered back again and settled down
in eastern Iowa. After the lapse of
thirty years he has concluded that he is
not in the right place, and now, at the
age of go, is hunting home where he
can grow up with the country.
He has an old chum who crossed the
plains with him when both were young
Iii HiS.az .-e.AA.i44oa and bsea.aao
a sheep grower in northeast Oregon,
and he has amassed fortune on sheep
and wool.
He lives thirty miles from Pendleton,
Ore, beyond the Umatilla reservation.
The ''prospector" had come to look at the
Indian land soon to be thrown open to
settlement. But he says the Indians are
keeping all the best of the land. He
reached Pendleton quite recently, and
expected to meet his old time chum.
But the latter had not called for his mail
for a month, and was not on hand.
The prospector inquired at the livery
stables to find team from the settlement,
without success. But he did succeed in
attracting attention to himself as stran-
ger looking for a place to settle, and
some moneyless, or at least conscience
less, man Swallowed him around the city.
He was on the outskirts of the place, and
discovered an old, unoccupied house on
the river bank. He walked into the yard
and passed around the building, when
he was startled to hear sound in the
house, and looked around just in time to
See rough looking man in amask jump
from an open window toward him.
1t seems the fellow had followed him
unobserved, and when he went around
the old house the robber had rushed in
through the half open door to spring
upon his intended victim in the back
yard. His plan would no doubt have
carried but for the presence of an old
barbed wire fence in the weeds. The
fellow did not observe the tangled wires,
and made a mad rush at his victim. But
his feet tripped on the wire with such
force as to dislodge it at one end.
and it coiled up and entangled the would
be robber. 1t was only the work of a
moment. The Iowan took in the situa-
ton and made ten foot strides toward
the city. He looked back after reaching
the settled street, and saw his adversary
disappear down the river bank.
He told me he had been in UNPLEASANT
quarters before, but had never had so
close call, to his knowledge.
He went to stable, hired broncho,
mounted, and set off on the trail that
led to his friends ranch. He took to
saddle at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and
never drew rein until he had galloped
twenty-eight miles over the sands, and
dismounted at the cabin door of his
friend Hc says he will look further be-
fore he settles down to farming, and VIII
keep away from empty shanties.

H,s OPINION OF THE DRESS.
a Leaf from the "reminiscences Of
Managing Editor.


New YORK, Sept. 15.-Ten or twelve
years ago 1t was much more difficult to
get society news than it is now. There
were very few, if any, trained female
reporters, and the men who were will
ing to do such work were generally n
very poor lot At one time we had a
curiously ignorant fellow of unbounded
industry and most admirable impudence
to assist In this work. He got facts in
an almost embarrassing quantity, and
these were written up for him after he
returned to the office. He walked up
and down Fifth and Madison ave-
nues every afternoon during the enter
tanning season, and wherever there was
an awning over the sidewalk he would
go In, and by hook or by crook learn all
that there was to be learned He did
not in the least look like a reporter
that is, like the popular idea of report
Grand he could with entire gravity as
sumo any character that for the moment
would suit his purpose. His object was
to see the mistress Of the house. Then
he assumed his character of reporter.
If she objected to giving him any facts
he would argue the point with her until
she saw the matter in the proper light,
and came to the conclusion that if any,
thing were to be said it were better that
it should be accurately said.
When Gen. Garfield was to be in
augurated as president this man was
sent to Washington to assist in the prep
aration of the account of the inaugural
ball The telegraph at that time was
not used as extensively as it now is, and
an effort was usually made to get as
much of the material by mail in ad-
vance as possible This society reporter
was asked to get descriptions of the
dresses which ladies of prominence
would wear at the ball As soon as
Gen. and Mrs. Garfield reached Wash
ington our reporter called on the presi-
dent elect, and said he wanted to get a
description of the dress Mrs. Garfield
was to wear at the ball The general
said the dresses were not unpacked The
reporter departed and called again The
dresses were yet unpacked Again and
again he called, always to be put off.
Atlength he caught the general and said
to him in his breezy way:
"See here, general, you are busy and
am busy; it would save time for both of
rs If you would let me see that dress
now"
Gen. Garfield evidently recognized the
truth of this, and took the reporter at
once to Mrs. Garheld's apartments, where
the dress was displayed and the reporter
dismissed. A few moments later he en-
tered the Washington Office of his news
paper wearing an expression of great dis
gust. The correspondent knew of the
frequent visits to Gen. Garield's hotel,
and said with smile:
"Well, you have not seen Mrs. Gar
fields dress YETI"
"Oh, yes, have" said our reporter
in contemptuous tone, land it amt
nothing but $50 dress, nohow."
