ponderous jaws, which when fully
ajar would admit an ordinary,

pouches, that could be opened and closed

PEACH BASKET INDUSTRY.
New Jersey Has the biggest Factory in
the World

Special to the Sunday Morning Netcs.
CLINTON. May O. 1891 Probably the
largest peach basket factory in Northern
New Jersey has just been started up at
Pattenburg, near here, by James Ham.
The factory is situated In the centre of
the peach producing district. and has a
capacity of turning out 1900 full COM
pleted baskets every day. At present
only 1900 baskets are being made
a day, but as soon as the peach
crop is an assured fact the factory
will be run to its fullest capaciJy. Mr..
Hann's sons have made new method for
cutting DISTRIBUTIONS. It will cut 600
bottoms in an hour and 4, 900 in day.
One man operates it, and it is said the
machine is the most n,plete and rapid
of its kind in the world. The Hams have
also invented new machine for cutting
basket hoops that is now being used for
the frst time. A child can operate it,
and 10000 finely-turned hoops are turned
out every day. These patents, and the
convenient location of the f.,ctory, will
make baskets much cheaper, and In the
end will make the peaches cost much less
to the consumer.

NEWARK. May 2, 1891. The Heinz Pub

and Otto Heinz are the chief stock hold
ers. have bought the plant of the defunct
EUentng Press The title to the property
was taken yesterday morning.
Frank NJ. McDermit, counsel for the
Sunday Standard. said today that it is
the purpose OF the purchasers to start a
daily morning Democratic newspaper on
the ruins OF the Press but that there is
question whether the newspaper will be
a daily edition of the Standard under the
same name or not If enough money be
subscribed, and liberal quantity is said
to have been promised. tue new paper
will be the Daily Standard.
A lease for IA month of the building for
which the Press WAS issued, and the re-
fusal of it thereafter has been secured by
by the Heinz Company. 1t is not yet de-
termined, however, whether the new
paper will occupy that building or be
taken under the Standards roof.

Pictures are now frequently hung with

designed for the young mistress of beau

The summer girl" is now before the
public. One paper raves over her creamy
skin and ripping waves of golden hair,
her ruffles, laces and coquettish ways.
Another writer plaintively says: "Girls,
don't fiirt," and does not tell why they
mustn't hirt.
Little do these people understand the
summer girl For two months she has
been preparing for her summer campaign.
She has attained her creamy skin by care
fully rubbing various cold creams and To-
tions upon it at night and sleeping in old
kid gloves TO whiten her hands. Don't
flirt Why, she has had q seamstress in
the house and has been running to the
dressmaker's and milliner's for months,
and they have put their heads together
and planned and plotted dainty combiLa-
tiOns of muslin, silk, and lace with spe-
cial idea to rendering the wearer attract
i've in the eyes of the opposite sex. She
chooses picturesque shoes and slippers,
and lets her fancy run riot in hosiery be-
cause she expects to swing back and forth
in a hammock and her pretty feet and
lace-trimmed skirts will show to a good
advantage.
Any one who believes that women dress
for women's eyes should spend about
three weeks at some fashionable resort.
The young men who stay at the place dur
ing the week do not amount to much, as a
general thing. In the mornings you will
hear the girls say: There are no men
around today" and they will don plain
seersucker dresses, old hats and thick, SEN
sible gloves and take their ease. When
the evening train brings the men the
same girls are out on the piazzas or at the
station, and 10! the transformation. You
won d not recognize them in their be-
witching costumes, and as for not flirting
watch them and see. They have come
to have fun and they are going to have it,.
The modern girl, as a general thing, knows
what she is about, and when the modern
young man whispers AIRY nothing" 10
her she replies In the same strain, and
while the men get together at midnight
and recount their cOnQuests the girls are
going through the same delightful process
in some girls room. As for breaking the
young mans heart, the summer young
man is not bothered by any such old-fash-
toned article.

WHAT A soUIHERNER SAYS.
The Girls of Dixie Are Dependent, Con
hding and HeIpless

The Girls of Dixie Are Dependent, Con-
fiding and Helpless.
Kentuckian, speaking of the northern
fashion OF letting woman hustle for her.
sell in public places, says that this is en-
tirely due to the demeanor of the north
ern woman herself When he is South
he always resigns his seat in q public
vehicle to a woman, and makes it his bus
mess to secure her comfort whenever
possible, regarding the welfare of every
woman as the special care of every man.
In the South the women are dependent
cOnfiding and helpless.
In the North they know what they want
and they 90 and get it with a rapidity that
startles the average man. The northern
woman buys her own car tickets, checks
her baggage, gets aboard, buys a news
paper. looks around for a seat and waits
her turn for one with all the independence
and courage of any man that can be
produced. She wants no favors and
she asks for none. This is so plainly
apparent that, as the Kentuckian says,
he is afraid to offer her any favors
for fear she may resent his interior
ence; aud even when he is sure that she
will not, and when she looks at him
longingly, he himself is half provoked at
the general swing of the sex here in the
North and would not offer her a seat any
way.
When she Is north she must hustle as
northern women hustle. And when he is
north he will do as northern men do.
Not the slightest grain OF softness is found
in his makeup for the northern woman
unaccompanied by her escort. Not the
slightest grain of sternness is felt for the
southern woman when he sees her alone.
The former may do the best she can. The
latter may revel in all the luxury which
the chance man may be able to provide
for her.
All the girls are going in for health and
athletics They must not--they simply
must not-appear sick. They must have
