There's Where You Make a Mistake.

Some folks think they are awfully clever,
And that all other people are fools;,
Some people will often endeavor
To make other people their tools.
Some people will boast of their knowledge
And fancy they're well wide awakei
That none are 30 deep or 30 cute as them
selves,
But that's where they make mistake.
Some people say our advertisements are
untrue, t &

We cannot exist and sell clothing ss we do

+. THE ORANGE MARKET.

Orange growers are in luck and no
mistake. The market is booming at
food tide, and looks as if it might be
a tidal wave. Seedlings are getting up
close to $l.50 box, and the top is not
reached yet. The beauty of it is that
the crop is mostly in the hands of the
growers still, and the country is swarm
ing with buyers, all grabbing for
everything IN sight.
Here is a simple story. A. B. Chap
man, Esq.,, of San Gabriel valley, re-
fused to sell his crop during the early
part OF the season. He began shipping
on his own account, and is reported to
have shipped off about 5000 boxes. This
week he closed out the crop on the trees
for lump sum of $25, 900, excepting his
Tangerine oranges, and all his
lemons. He has large crop of
lemons and good many Tan
gerine oranges. The HERALD's S informant
In this matter is an agent for shipper,
and he estimates that the Chapman
crop will net total OF nearly $40, 900.
Three years ago this orchard was almost
given over as destroyed by the white
scale bug, which now turns off $40, ,000
worth of fruit. The sum is very
handsome one for any farmer to bank
for his crop.
Lemons are likely to be good property
to have this year. The crop is short
IL oil Aietrioto xxrh e,
grow. A dealer informs the HERALD
that it will not more than suffice for the
needs OF the sick.
The railroads are doing great work
in moving the orange crop. Not less
than forty cars day are now moving
out of here, or $50 week. This
must be kept up for weeks
to come. To move the crop now here
will call for $500 cars, or perhaps 500
more. The cars now going out full, will
scarcely get back to load again, yet no
famine of cars is apprehended.
1t takes great deal of money to move
this crop OF oranges. Every carload
shipped from here at present rates rep
resents not less than $3.50 to $1,000, with
about $3.50 added for freight. There is
money in the business for all concerned
From now on big stories will be told ol
how growers make $500 to $4,000 an acre
The dealers probably double their
money year like this; and surely al
$3.50 car, or about $4,000 train load
the railroads make something handsome.

live the Caucasian today that does not
regard his race as superior to that of the
African. Indeed, it is we'll these "col-

LOST HIS BRIDE.
The Young Lady Says Her Intended HUI

The Young Lady Says Her Intended Hus-
band Swore at Her.
People in the neighborhood of Crosse
Pointe are wondering why the Baker Hues-
ton wedding did not occur. They know that
the cards were out to favored dozen, that
it was common talk among the gossips and
that the minister was called and was seen
by several reliable people to drive up to the
residence of the groom But they know
also, for some mysterious reason. the we'd
ding did no. come off, for the bride returned
to her home and the presents have all been
sent back.
Miss Clara Hueston, daughter of the late
Minister to Uru quay. was to be married to
Fred r. Baker, who lives in Crosse POinte.
Miss Clara's mother had died when she was
quite young, and since her fathers death
she has lived with her aunt, Mrs. George
Talbot, who was bitterly opposed to The
marriage. She would not even consent that
the ceremony should take place in her
house.
She thought she could put stop to the
proceedings in this manner, but here she
made mistake. The course of true love
was never turned aside just because mamma
or papa or aunt was opposed to the match.
Arrangements were made to have the cara
mony IN the Baker mansion.
Last Sunday was to have witnessed the
two made one. Rev. j. w. Halsted of Sar-
mia, Miss Clara's home, was called. and he
arrived at about o'clock in the afternoon.
The select party was also there on time. So
was the groom.
But where was the bride? Ten, twenty.
thirty minutes they waited, but no bride nut
in an appearance. She was staying at the
house of friend across the road from the
Baker residence. They were Just about to
send for her when she appeared, gorgeous
in the attire of bride, with ''rings on her
fingers and bells on her toes"
The groom met her at the door and thew
went up to the improvised altar together.
The ceremony proceeded till the minister
asked: "Will you take this man to be YOUR
welded husband 2" The bride answered
No" in a firm tone of voice, and then
broke away and ran out of the house.
Nothing could induce her to give an ex-
PLANTATION of her strange conduct
She was seen by reporter at the resi-
dence of her friend.
why did you refuse to marry Mr.
Baker?"
Because he swOre at me and treated me
shamefully. When he met me at the door
he said something awful and jerked my
arm"
What 1t was that Mr.. Baker said could not
be learned, but it is pretty certain that he
swOre. He wouldn't say word when seen.
The wedding has been indefinitely post

The preceding table needs some explanation
to show why, with decreasing school attend
ance sineei1 SS5, there has been steady increase
OF teachers and salaries.
In 1887 and 1888 the existing schedule OF sal.
aries went into effect. The salary OF assistant
teachers in the primary and grammar grades es
being $50 a month"; or 5000 year, for the first
year OF teaching S53 Tor the second year, 500
for the third year, and so on regularly up 10
maximum salary OF $50 per month, or $3.50 per
year. There are now 3l4 assistants that have
reached the maximum of $50 per month. Ihere
remain between 800 and 400 below Inc maxi
mum, so That If no additional teachers whatever
we've elected during The next four years, the
amount paid for salaries would be increased be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 year over each
preceding year.
The fact that the school attendance has re-
manned about stationary during the past seven
years Is owing mainly TO the organization ana
development Of parochtal and church schools.
In these schools there are at least 1000 or oooo
pupils.
during the same period may be traced 10 several
causes. The main cause has been the reduction
OF the average number OF pupils 10 a teacheI %
standard below that OF any other city IN Inc
United States.
The large number of principals of small schools
exempt from teaching class also swells Inc
number Of teachers. The number OF SUBSTITUTE
teachers has been Increased by about twenty
Another cause is Tie Increasing number OF
Hlgh- chool classes In which the number oil
pupils per teacner is small, as in The COgswel
Mission High School, where eleven teachers are
required TO teach less than 200 pupils. III Is
fact that in 1885 The lower primary grades
were oYercroWded, often running up 10 slAty or
seyenty-hve pupils TO 4 class. There never ought
10 be a return TO such numbers.
But there are now many very small classes III
very small rooms aud som skeleton classes, aEd
too many classes that number only from forty TO
TO ty.hye pupils. SOME consolidation has already
been effected.
1he Chairman OF the Committee on Classifca
ton has been dey0ting his whole time since the
schools reopened to consolidating classes In the
thin schools south of Market street and north Of
Bush. and has succeeded in reducing the number
OF teachers by fifteen. Tie practicable conSOl
datOn VIII not exceed twenty. But nearly ali OF
those fifteen teachers have been required 10 take
charge OF new classes N the southern and west
ern parts of the city, where The population Is
rapidly increasing.
For the purl oss of general information, sub
nit the following statistics, made M from the
latest school reports 10 be found in this office.

TO REDUCE EXPENSES.
The Board of Health Looking
Over Its Salary List.

With view to best decrease the present
indebtedness of the city. incurred BY the
''Solid Nine" of the late Board Of Super
yisors. OF. if no decrease could be had. at
least to prevent further increase. the FL
nance Committee of the Board of Super
visors now In office has been casting about
for ways and means TO effect such desir-
able end.
Among the various municipal departments
the committee looked over the bills for
salaries paid the employees of the Board of
Health, and at the request of Supervisors
Ebert and Aver Of the Finance Committee
the board issued a call for joint confer
ence of the heads of the various DEPART
ments under its control.
This conference was set for last night,
and at s o'clock the following named were
present: Mayor Sanderson. Drs. LIE Tour
neuX, McQuesten, Fiske and Secretary
Hoesch, Health Officer DR.. Keeney. DR..
Healy of the City and County Hospital,
cian Or. Yeamans, Almshouse Superinten-
dent Weaver and DR.. Bunker. Supervisors
Ebert and Ayers were not present, and
their absence rendered any definite action
impossible.
A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION.
DR.. LIE Tourneux stated to the heads of
the various departments that the Finance
audit any bill for even one cent over tie
legal amount allotted to each branch, he de-
sired to hear from it in what possible way
the present salary expenditures could be
brought within the limit. No action could
then be taken, and all he desired was an in
formal discussion.
DIR, Healy of the City and County Hospi-
tai stated that under the new system
adopted by the board to have training
school for nurses at the hospital, he could
keep we'll within the $1,000 monthly salary
ailowance-indeed, he thought he could re-
duce 1t perhaps $500 month by discharging
some OF the present nurses hired at $40
month, and giving their work to the nurses
In training.
THE RECEIVING HOSPITAL.
City Physician Yeamans said the Re-
ceiving Hospital could not be run on the
present $4,000 appropriation. Something
might be saved on minor salaries at the hos
pital, and perhaps the offices of hospital and
prison matron could be consolidated at
lesser salary, or at least the same figure
now being paid TO one of the matrOns.
1t Is impossible TO run the Pesthouse on
less than $3.50 monthly, as the salaries now
amount TO S1I5 Tor the five necessary en-
ployes there, leaving margin OF only S75
for the subsistence of patients
The meeting, which was in session from
o'clock until almost II, then adjourned to
convene again at some future time.
