A Brand New Trust.

NEW YORK, March 30.-The manufac-
turers OF parasols and umbrellas are
forming a combination to maintain
prices. They have been holding CON
ferencesOf late, and it is understood that
they have nearly completed their organ
izatiOn. The main idea is to control the
frame manufacturers, and through them
TO govern the smaller manufacturers, of
umbrellas and parasols. There are three
factories that, it is estimated, supply 30
per cent. OF the umbrella frames, and
negotiations have already been started
for the output of these factories. An
other arrangement desired is not to in
crease the output.

THE Supreme Court has decided that
the delivery of liquor 10y wagons in an
adjoining county is not violation of
the liquor law. The decision was rem
dered in the case of the Commonwealth
against Francis Hess, in which the find
ing Of the court Of Montgomery county
was reversed. Hess, who had bother :
license in Philadelphia, sold and deliv-
cred to Frank Cottman, who keeps a
hotel at Jenkintown, beer and porter
In his opinion, Justice Paxon said
that a wholesale dealer had right to sell
liquor, not only to consumers in Phila-
delphia, but throughout the state and
country at large, provided the sales are
made at his place of business. He said:
cit is not necessary that retail dealer
from an adjoining county should call at
the place of business Of the wholesale
dealer in Philadelphia in order to make
the purchase. He may order his goods
by mail, Is in other cases.

The New York Tribune in a special
dispatch states that news received there
from Washington indicates that the ad-
ministration is willing to pay to the rela-
tives of the men murdered by the New
Orleans mob, whose Italian citizenship
has been proved, the sum of 100, 900
francs indemnity. The payment Of this
sum, it is understood, is to be accom-
panied by a declaration which will make
it plain to the government of Italy that
this act on the part of the United States
is in no wise to be considered an ac-
acknowledgement of its obligation or LA
bility for the failure of the local author
tiles in New Orleans to protect the lives
of Italian citizens, but as an evidence
rBther of the good will and f.iendliness
of feeling which have always character
lied the relations of the United States
government with that of Italy.

WHEREVER in Pennsylvania, says the
P'ttsburg Post the people have been al
lowed to declare their will through coun-
ty conventions Cleveland delegates have
been chosen to the state convention.
In one or two counties anti-CIeveland
delegates have been chosen by county
committee setups, ostensibly for Pattison
but in reality for Hill. Pattison is not
candidate; he is for Cleveland and
against Hill. The use of his name Is a
subterfuge to fool the people, and in
most cases Is resorted to by those who
opposed Pattison's nomination in 1890.

ty, breaking the rope when at the third

ALL ABOUT TREES,

In the southern part of Europe SO, 900
oranges have been picked from one tree.
The hardest known wood is said to be
cocus wood. 1t turns the edge of any ak,
however well tempered, so it is claimed.
India rubber trees grow wild all over
Lee County, Florida. At Fort Myers
they are the chief shade and ornamental
trees.
In spite of its ice and severe cold, La
brador possesses 800 species of towering
plants. SO ferns, and over $50 species of
MOSES and lichens.
There is a tree in Jamaica known as the
life tree on account of its leaves growing
even after being severed from the plant.
Only by fire can it be entirely destroyed.
Horticulturists tell us that the orange
was originally pear-shaped fruit about
the size of common wild cherry. It's
evolution is due to ], 200 years of cuItiya-
ton.
Princeton has two trees which were
planted previous to the Declaration of In
dependence. The sycamores in the deans s
yard were planted in l767, by order of the
Trustees, to commorate the resistance of
the Stamp Act.
The points of the compass can be told
from trees by the following simple OBJ
servations: The side of a tree on which
most of the moss is found is the north, If
the tree is exposed to the sun, the heav-
lest and longest limbs will be on the
south side.
In Turkey if a man falls asleep in the
neighborhood of a poppy field and the
wind blows from the field toward him he
will become narcotized and would die if
the country people, who are well ac-
Quainted with the circumstance, did not
bring him to well or stream and empty
pitcher after pitcher of water on his lace
and body.
Twenty millions of acres of land in the
State of Washington are covered with q
growth of wood which will cut an aver
age of rs, 900 feet of mercantile lumber per
acre. Much of it in the vicinity of Port
Crescent will cut an average of 100, 900
feet and more to the acre, while single
trees are common that will cut 5000 feet.
The Falkland Islands produce no trees,
but they produce wood in a remarkable
shape. You Will see scattered here and
there singular blocks of what looks like
weather beaten, messy, gray stones of
various sizes. But if you attempt to roll
over one of these rounded powders you
will find yourself unable to accomplish
it. In fact, the stone is tied down to the
ground-tied down by the roots, or, in
other words, it is not stone, but block
of living wood.

Greenland's icy mountings, and the
whlstling wind blew the tree advertising
matter into heaps like snowdrifts, only to
catch it up again and whirl it about like
tiocks Of dappled pigeons. 1t was a
typlca1 San francisco day, and that needs
but little explanation-how the wind un-
settles your back hair and dislocates your
temper, creeps down your spinal column
ana permeates the seams and button
holes, and makes you think bad things.
In Philadelphia at that hour there was
the Hrst spat OF snow, and one caught
only its icy breath. Snow means sleigh
bells, and the thought of sleghing really
quite overcomes me. This will likely
prove one of those "exceptionar' win
ters, however, and we viii be plaving
tennis on Christmas Day in a linen
duster.
At 5 O'Clock the days festivities close.
ana black stream pours out at the wide
gate. 1t Is estimated that fully 10000
people are in attendance daily. The few
rods to the electric cars are lined with
apple women, waffle-maker ers, hot coffee
dealers, balloon and paper flower men.
"hump-backed and double-jointed pea
NUT venders, and, in short, every sort of
eataDIe trash and nonsense under the
SHINING sun. The mass of people scarcely
wait Tor the cars to make halt. but pile
In and fasten on like a swarm of bees
diounu Lnelr queen on HmD. Seven
coaches on the railroad run every half
hour from the city, and each trip are
oaded full-gospel measure.
The day closed with a Republican
speaking at the Courthouse and the first
parade of the Republican Club. the
"Plumed Knights" We hung up on the
curbstone for weary while in the sting
ing atmosphere all agog with patriotic
feelings, and had the satisfaction of see
ing the latter end of the procession disap-
pear several squares away from the route
published. I am mad. Very mad. Mad
at the whole party, and will do as heard
an Intelligent voter say he was going to
do-souelch every candidate on the ticket
by putting big, black ''X' at his name! !!
Revenge is sweet.
And now, suppose I turn a rule" at
this section and hang green flag on the
rear car, in order that the good-Iooking
compositor who puts it in type shall have
chance to sort up his cap ''1' box.
