a Georgia editor who is building a
railroad says he viii soon be able to fur
nish his brethren with free passes. But
as the road will only cover distance of
ten miles, and it is far removed from
many Of them, it will take them six
months steady walking to get to it.

Henry a. Elbert, Il veteran peach
grower OF Delaware, says that the real
cause of the peach failure is that in
Delaware as well as in most of the other
peach growing states, the soil has abso-
lutely exhausted itself for peach pro-
duction. That is really the secret, and
the reason why the peach crop, especially
of Delaware, has been growing less and
less in proportion to the amount Of work
expended upon it during the last ten
years. Peach growers as general thing
in America nave made considerable
money. and have made it easily.
The care Of their trees, once they reach
the bearing stages, costs but little, and
the conservative old fellows sat down in
their farm hoa5as quietly and just let
the price of the rich fruit drop into their
laps. They starved the soil. and they
are now reaping the consequences. They
are beginning to dnl ont that the soil Of
d peach orchard requires fertilizers just
as much as the wheat farm does, and
until such aids to fruit growing have
been properly used the peach crop can
not be expected to be as generous . one
as it has been for several years past -

The bids for city undertaking, which
were opened in the health Office. show
considerable anxiety on the part of the
undertakers OBSCURE the contract. There
We're only two bidders, August Lehfert
and Henry Snyder, but the low figures
which they quoted leave little room for
other bids, August Letfert offered to
furnish coSfns and bury all paupcrs or
other persons ordered to be buried by
the city at $3.50 for children under l2
years Of age and $3.50 for adults.
Henry Snyder's bid was even lower.
He offered to bury all paupers in the city

children and eighty-6ye cents for adults.
Samples for the proposed collins to be
used were sent up for inspection They
are Of pine, stained black, with metal
handles. These bids include taking

A Chicago Lunch.

The little, round, fat man, with the
gurgling laugh, answered to roll call yes
terday, and said he had new story, says
the Chicago Herald. 1t was on a friend
who boards with him. This friend Is not
exactly slender, but composite picture of
him and the little fat man would look
like lemonade with straw in it. The
other night his friend, the boarder, came
home at rather late hour, and as is his
wont, searched the larder for delicacies.
He knew his ground perfectly and did not
think it necessary to light the gas. In the
pantry he discovered some delicious
chicken patties, and these he devoured in
short order. Still his appetite asserted
itself. Probing further into the mysteries
of the larder, he found some more of the
patties, and these he devoured with great
gusto, though he thought at the time that
they did not taste as well as the others.
Then he went to bed, and was soon the
proprietor of snore which sounded like a
man tearing canvas. In the morning,
when the little fat man came down to
breakfast, his wife, who had preceded him,
said: James, | cannot imagine what has
become of the sausage balls which the
cook made up last night" Neither could
james. The boarder slumbered on, and
his aggressive snore bored holes in the
atmosphere. An idea occurred to the lit
tie fat man. maybe Arthur ate the sau-
sage" he said. "You'd better go up, then,
and see if he is alive" said his wife, He
was alive, and when taxed about the sau-
sage acknowledged the pork. Then the
fat man said: 81 have my opinion of
man who can't tell the difference between
sausage and chicken patties at A. NJ. 1t
is either reflection on the sausage meat
or an indication that you were too far gone
to know what was passing your palate"

NO USE FOR A JOKER.
An Editor Who Had No Sense of HUI
NOR.
From the Macon, Ca, Telegraph. ]

from the Macon, Ga, Telegraph
The late Edwin Cowles. editor and pro-
prietor of the Cleveland Leader, was one of
the most successful newspaper men in the
United States, and always published re-
markably good paper. Strange to say,
however, he had no sense of humor, a
faculty which is usually strongly developed
in newspaper men. Years ago Opie P.
Reed, now editor of the Arkansas Irareler,
was paragrapher on the Leader, and Mr.
Cowles used to call him to account nearly
every day for writing things that seemed
to him to be destitute of sense or point,
though the whole city of Cleveland was
chuckling over them. These interviews
always made Mr.. Reed very unhappy, but
he did not despair until he awoke one
morning to find that humorous sketch
on which he had expended great care had
been cut half in two, breaking off in print
in the most provoking way. On demand
ing an explanation from the foreman. Mr..
Reed was informed that when the proof
was submitted to Mr.. Cowles he took his
shears and cut off half the proof sheet, re-
marking that the portion handed back to
the foreman occupied as much space as
ought to be given to any joke. When Mr.
Reed heard this he walked into Mr..
Cowles' Office, wrote out his resignation
and walked out of the Leader office, never
to return.
