better and prices stesdier. Gooseberries con-
tinue quite scarce.
The dried fruit market offers little food for

The vegetable market was fairly active, but
prices were also lower, owing to abundant sup

The Union PrInters' Home.

awakened other bodies TO its benefits and
advantages to the extent that the union
printers of England have taken steps 10
build like home at Swanage. which will
be known as the Caxton Home. Other
organizations have in view the opening and
maintaining of homes for the care OF their
members who have TO be retired.
During the session of the International
Union held in the city OF Pittsburg. Pa, in
1886. George w. Childs, who has always
been recognized as q firm friend Of the
printers, and Anthony j. Drexel. the
weli-known banker of Philadelphia, WHO
likewise has endeared himself to the men
and women who set type, made an uncondi-
tional gift OF $1,000 each to the union. This
formed the nucleus of fund which the
union subsequently decided should be
known as the "Childs- Drexel Fund" to be
added to until a sufficient amount had aceu-
mulated to warrant the building of a home
for printers. Various ways were devised TO
increase this fund, and as result of many
deliberations il was decided that on the an
niyersary of the birth Of Mr. Chids each
printer working in Offices east of the Mis-
slssippi should contribute the price of one
thousand ems OF composition toward the
fund. and that on the 18th of September of
each year, the anniversary OF the birth OF
MIR. Drexel, the c0mpostors at work in
offices west Of the river named should make
like contribution TO the fund.- The fund
""o pidSeu III tuo udUdS Vi special trustees,
and in course of time it grew to such an ex-
tent that they felt warranted in the building
OF the home. When the union was In an
nual session at Denver. Colo. three years
ago, +. l.. Martin and A. A. McGovney of
Colorado Springs made an offer to donate
so acres of land about mile east of the
city upon which to build the proposed
home, II the union would guarantee that
building not to cost less than 500. 900 should
be erected on the site. The offer was ac-
cepted and the work was commenced with
out unnecessary delay. The home, which
is now almost completed, is pleasantly stu-
ated on an eminence overlooking the city,
locality that Is easy of access by a good
road by those who favor walking, while
those who prefer to ride can reach il by an
electric line of cars. On the emnence that
1T occupies the home has the benefit of the
glorious sun and the ;nvigorating breezes
for which Colorado is noted. The view
from the home Is one Of the most picturesque
Imaginable, and 1t is said by those who are
competent TO judge that there is no point i'm
the far distant and world renowned Alps
from which grander view can be obtained.

house officers. The facts are that last No
vember we imported IS bales of Sumatra to-
baccO. This was appraised by the Custom
house officers, who claimed that it was leaf
tobacco for wrappers, on which duty of 50
per pound is demanded. We claimed that
it was not wrapper tobacco. and was entitled
to be admitted upon payment of 50 cents per
pound. We could not agree, so we took an
appeal to the General Board Of Appraisers
at New York. This board rendered de-
clsion On the 1st Of last month, in which
they say, we find from expert testimony
and examination that eight bales do not con-
tain any tobacco for cigar wrappers. and
that the 70 bales remaining do contain to-
bacc0 suitable for cigar-wrappeIS. The
claim OF the importers is substantiated as
TO eight bales as specified, and the cost of
duty imposed by the Collector is hereby
affirmed as to the remainder OF the mer-
chandise.' We are not satisfied, and have
simply appealed from this to the Circuit
Court Of Appeals. When the decision is
rendered we can either pay the duty i'm
posed or return the merchandise. That is
all there is in the matter"
