A small crowd of Italians and wharf
spectators hustled over the side Of the
bark Anunciation Fomento as soon as
she was made fast, and in five minutes
an unearthly chattering began between
monkeys, parrots, buyers, and sellers.
There were only few monkeys, but
plenty Of parrots, which were sold at
prices of from ST. 80 to 81 each. The
largest parrot, which brought the top
price Of "a, was beauty of nearly twice
the ordinary size, and his observations
in Spanish created a great deal Of
amusement among the sailors, who had
evidently been teaching him their par
lance. The monkeys went at prices
from 81 to 81. The sale lasted twenty
minutes or SO, at the end of which a
queer procession of swarthy Italians, a
dozen in number, who had been fortu-
nate enough to purchase, came over the
side of the vessel with their chattering
and squirming possessions, and vanished
ere the blue coated inspector had begun
his work. Brooklyn Eagle.

A Million Pairs OF Stockings . Day
was told to-day by one of the promi
nent hosiery merchants that the produc-
ton az seamless hose in this country was
about 100. 900 dozen pairs daily. This
seems incredible, and yet my informant
i a man Of wide and accurate knowl-
edge Of the trade. 4 daily production
of / 200, 900 pairs Of stockings would
mean z 600, 900 pairs each working week
or $50. 000, 900 pairs a year, an average OF
five pairs TO each man. woman, child,
bedridden invalid, and pickaninny in thu
land. And this covers only one class OF
stockings, though probably the most
numerous one. OF course, the bulk ls
of the cheapest qualities, those that sell
in the trade for so cents dozen and
thereabout. But how are they used,
and where do they go? 1t is almost as
deep q problem as the death and the
future life Of the pin. These statistics
throw a strong light on the gigantic di.
mansions of the clothing trades. We
scarcely put hosiery and underwear
among the important divisions Of dry
goods, and yet the transactions are be
yond the scope of an ordinary imagina'
ton. A few weeks ago a company Of
dealers representing the importing side
of the trade alone gathered to confer or
how best to protect their interests before
Congress, and a rough computation Of
the capital represented by the houses
that then Joined in action gave the stu
pendous total of 5000, 600, 900. - New

ABOUT PEARLINE.

Everyone knows about Pearline, almost
every one uses Pearline, but we wonder II
all the house-keepers who use 1t know hal
that can be done with 1t. We wonder If
they all know what some of the bright ones
have discovered, that those mountains OF
dish-washing-th greasy pan and kettle
may be reduced TO mole hills Of the smallest
size by the judicious use of Pearlne. Fill
the roasting pan rs soon rs the gravy is
poured from 1t. with cold water, shake In q
little Pearlino and set on the stove. BY the
time the rest of the dishes are washed, all
the grease Is dissolved and the pan can be
washed MS easily us n plate. Treat the ket-
tic IN which anything greasy has been
boiled In the same way, and besides clean
utensils you will have a clean sink, the use
OF the Pearline rendering 1t safe to pour
such dishwater into 1t. Sinks regularly
treated to'a bath Of Pearline and scalding
water will seldom need the services of a
plumber.

Cabbage ana Marriage.

Eighteen months ago, says the San
Francisco Chronicle, according to tho
unquestionable statement OF a grain
merchant, there stood in front of the
door of one Of San Francisco's real
estate dealers cabbage weighing 92
pounds, and said to be the largest ever
raised. While this production OF Cali
fornia's greatness was on exhibition
the Oregon express landed from En-
gland two Britons. so fresh from their
native soil that they walked along the
dry and dusty streets with surtouts
down to their ankles and their trous-
ers rolled up to meet their coats. They
were both bound for Australia. Pass
ing along they espied the wonderful
cabbage. Both men stopped short.
Up went two single eyeglasses.
by Jove. old boy. but that's a
doosedly large cabbage, doncher-
know"
"Doosedly large" replied the Sec
ond surprised son of Albion, and then
they both went in and inquired OF the
real estate man where it was grown.
Both men were wealthy. Both men
were cousins, and while unknown to
them the busy hand offate was now at
work, 1t only seemed to the curiosity
seekers that life would be misspert
unless they saw the land upon which
this cabbage grew. they were obeying
the idle within OF idle gentlemen on go
ing to the original homo OF that cab
bage to do so. And so they went.
Englishmen, rs rule. are not gar
rulous, and these two friends were no
exceptions. They were directed to
the farm where the cabbage grew.
They remained two weeks. At the
end OF that time one OF them said to
the rancher:
II want so much OF your land in
certain section. How much is 1t
WORTH"
-Four hundred thou sand dollars"
