young trees bear better than the old, and young gratis bear better than the branches of old trees. In most of the fig orchards they graft the trees every year.
 "When the fallen fruit is compara- lively dry, it is assorted and packed into bags weighing from POO to 400 pounds each. The figs are bought by the merchants and shippers and sent to the factories here they are emptied in long rows and carefully assorted by men, women and children, who sit cross legged with the fruit on one side and the baskets and boxes on the other. They sort the different qualities, and shape each fig in the oblong form so familiar to the New World. The boxes are cased in wooden forms, called skeletons, which weigh from 250 to $50 pounds net. Each skeleton contains from four to $50 boxes, according to the weight of the latter. The finest qualities are made into what are called layer figs !; those next in excellence are nodded into oblong shape, and are known as mar caroni.' The poorer sort are packed into boxes, crates and bags. Smyrna exports annually about 55, 900 skeletons, of which England takes 30 per cent, and the United States about 60."

 While Henry Wharton was getting into buggy in front of Hickey's bank yesterday morning, the horse took fright and started to run.

 Dr. Titus was yesterday served with a copy of the judgment in the Asylum case. His attorney, II. N. Alexander, tried to interpose some technicalities, but they came to naught.

 The jury in the case of William Kel- logg, charged with grand larceny, is still out. Yesterday they gave notice of their inability to arrive at verdict, but Judge Kibbey sternly sent them back. They have from time to time asked informa- tion as to the law and the charge. A short walk was taken yesterday after noon. Up to midnight they have been confined for thirty-one hours. A stranger to the facts might think the jury is weighing a matter of life or death, but it is not so. The trouble is all about the ownership of a six-dollar calf
 About 9 o'clock last night the ponsatr of the Capitol and Luke X Czarnowski's saloons were suddenly left in darkness by the failure of the electric lamps. The gas was lighted and the electric works notified. For fear of injury to the work men, the incandescent circuit was shut of over the entire town. Investigation then disclosed the fact that the connec- ton from the main line to the side wire that supplies that half block, had been burned through. The repairs were quickly made and the town once more glowed with the incandescent light.

About Figs. fn h..


 Such contradictory statements arc published regarding the fig that ont hardly knows what to accept as reliable copied by the New York Fruit Tradt Journal:
 "There is large amount of ignorance lying around loose among the American public respecting the chief import of my native land," sad leading fig importer from Smyrna, but at Alden, Tehailiss and Erbeili, far in the interior of Asia Minor. These districts lie from 25O to 600 miles away from the Mediterranean coast.
 This statement would seem to justify the claim of the Arizona people that portions of that country will ultimately stand at the head in fig growing, and that the interior portions of California are preferable to the coast.-ED.l
 "They are wonderfully rich and fertile and produce, if not the finest fruits Of all kinds, at least the finest figs in the world. Horticulturists have repeatedly taken up trees from the territory and transplanted them in various parts of Greece, Italy, France, England, Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Algiers, and Tunis, but in every case the resultant fruit was no better than the native article. Some of the results were very odd. In Italy the figs ran to aromatic woody fibre, and were roasted and used as an imitation coffee. In Morocco they grew into pulpy masses, and were used chiefly to make jellies and marmalades.
 "The fig tree is not cultivated like ordinary fruit trees. Fertilizing in- creases the size of the fruit but deteriorates the quality and it's flavor. Unlike most fruits the fig tree is not picked. Around the trunk of every tree a circle is built of stones and gravel on which the fruit falls when it is perfectly ripe. It is allowed to stay there until it is dried, when it is gathered and sent to the factories to be packed. The trees are grafted, sometimes annually. The

BAYONETS USED.
Troops Summoned to Qusll a Riot at
Southampton.

SOUTHAMPTON, Sept. 9.-The strikers
made riotous demonstration tonight and
were only dispersed at the point of the tayo-
net The trouble began with the dock la
borers preventing the departure of several
trains. Two companies of infantry arrived
and drove the mob away from the rails.
The dockmen made desperate attempts to
break the line formed by the troops. Some
of them took the horses from cabs and
charged furiously upon the soldiers. The
troops, however, stood firm and repeatedly
repulsed the strikers.
A number of horses were bayoneted and
some of the riders were seriously wounded.
Volley after volley OF stones were thro wn at
the troops and several soldiers were severely
injured. The Mayor read the riot act. This
only added to the fury of the mob, a section
of which stormed the Mayors business
premises and smashed every window in the
place.
The troops were now supplied with ball
cartridges and ordered to charge. For a
moment the rioters made resistance, but
seeing many of their number fall pierced by
the bayonets of the soldiers, the mob broke
and fled in wild disorder.
The excitement throughout the city to-
night is intense, and further trouble is
| feared.
No trains have passed into the docks eX-
| cept those carrying the mails. The strikers
| have telegraphed to Davitt, Cunningha
| and Graham asking assistance.
