are mourning the loss of three of their chill
dren, one son and two daughters, as though
they were dead. The boy and the two girls
committed the objectionable sin of marry
ing without the consent of their parents, and
as result the old folks have forbidden their
children to ever enter their home again,
says Philadelphia dispatch to the st.
Louis Gl0be-Demoerat. Charles Jr. set the
example Tor the girls. Some few years ago
ne was secretly married in Camden, and it
was not until more than five months after
ward that his father found it out. Then he
was told to go and work for himself and
keep his wife
bed AT the usual hour She is 16 years old,
rather pretty, well: developed for her age,
and inclined to have her own way. The
next morning she was not in her room. She
had disappeared In the night. Her father
and mother worried for a day or two and
then they learned that Emma had eloped
with Henry GreDle.Gnd had been married in
Camden. Butcher: Franz went to Camden
searched the marriage records and found
out that his daughter had actually been
married. Then he resolved that he would
never recognize her again. He and his wife
were Just getting oyer the establishment at
Emma's eiopement when Wilhelmina, their
pretty and willful fifteen-year-old daughter,
took it into her head to follow her sisters
example. She left home on last Sunday
week, saying she was going to church.
When she did not come home to dinner her
folks thought it strange, but when she did
not come to supper they became positively
alarmed. Her elder sister went out to look
for her. Nobody knew where she had gone.
Mrs. Franz began Co suspect the truth, be-
cause she had been told that a former en-
ploye, Antoine Sol:ach, loved her Nina"
and had frequently been seen with her On
the following Monday Butcher Franz made
another visit to Camden and again searched
the marriage records. He was rewarded by
finding that Wlhelmina had elop1d with
Soltach.
MI Franz has record in the back Of his
eash-Dook of the days on which his children
left his house. He said Yesterday. as he
turned over the leaves Of the book: "The
day Will come when they will he sorry for
what they have done. They have left nv
house without cause. and they can never
come back again. Emmas husband lost his
hand and arm few days after they were
married. That was the beginning Of their
bad luck. I'll never forgive them"
They can never come back" said Mrs.
Franz, as she paced the store with a child in
her arms, unless they go down on their
knees and pray for pardon"

while pulling leisurely toward the break

A moment later lie saw the head and eyes
of the strange object. AS the head pro

appeared to be long fippers The head of
the marine animal was covered with pro-
truding horns
The monster came toward the boat. and
apparently meditaied an attack. when the
captain hit at 1t with an oar. 1t paid no at
tentl0n to this assault, but ran its head
against the boat with force that caused the

2oo pounds, and managed to keep the boat
right side up. Then the fight became fierce
The tide was carrying the contestants
toward the breakwater. One after the
other the oars were broken by the captain
by striking on the hard back of the mon

himself, the captain managed to throw a
Moose over projecting rock on the break
water, and SO pulled himself ashore.
The monster continued its attacks on the

THE CHERIMOYA.
Curious Fruit Being introduced in
Southern California.

A Curious Fruit Being introduced in
Southern California.
We have of late heard a good of a wonder
full fruit Which has borne the name "Cher!-
mnya' with IA variety of ways Of spelling
We have also heard the profoundly satisfied
expressions of those who have been for
tunate enough to taste this dainty. Clio
Lloyd wrote this paper that he had served
up The Cherimuya to the guests at the
orange carnival at Chicago.
We have the pleasure of giving the
readers Of the Independent some little in
formation OF this wondrOus fruit which was
kindly furnished US by DR.. G. Lorenzo
Yates, vino, III his careful manner, has been
devOtIng some time TO its study.
Ii belongs TO the family of Anona, which
embraces seven children. II was undouDt-
eddy introduced from Peru, its home. Mex
leo has some varieties growing in different
parts oil her domain, and now the beautiful
garden Of the world, Santa Barbara, has
! begun its cultivation.
The Peruvlans esteem this fruit above all
others, believing it in no sense Inferior to
them Individually and fully their equal col
lectlvely. Undoubtedly the fruit was known
TO them long before the time of the con-
quest. 1t has been known to botanists
since the year 1890, when it was introduced
TO the world as food fruit, Later it was
introduced into Mexico aud varieties are
found in Brazil.
II is also called incorrectly the custard-
apple. In Mr.. Gallaher's place 10 Monte
cito we find tree five years old that bore
one fruit last year. This year it bore over
fifty. TINS particular tree came from the
Packard vineyard, the original of which
| came from Mexico. Joseph Sexton has
some OF this variety, the fruit of which he
| sent to Chicago.
Mrs. Piper introduced some of the Guate-
mala variety about five years ago. kintUn
| Stevens MOntpcitO has nf tha A
| squamOsa Sweet sop and the Anona mur-
cata (sour sop. The pulp of the anona
cherlmoya Is white, slightly tinted with yell
! low. 1t IS smooth and eau De iikened to cOrn-
| starch pudding A lady alter testing it says:
| " The first tasted like vanilla ice-cream,
| the next like Iipe pineappes. followed
| by bananas topped off with ripe strawber-
| RES" After eating the fruit one cannot ad-
| equately put into words a description of
| the sensation. Ii seems rs if all the nice
| things of earth, perfectly blended, had been
| eaten.
This fruit we believe will be the fruit of
| the future. 1t is so deicat. that every one
| will enjoy it. 1t can be transported TO the
| East and must command ready high price.
| 1t Will. IN our minds, make most lucrative
| business to those who engage in its cultiva-
| ton.
| For this section of the world the tree
| seem to need only the ordinary good garden
| soil which here abouDds. The trees must
| be sheltered from sharp winds. They do
not seem 10 require high tropical heat but
