The apparently contradictory reports
from the peach orchards of Delaware
every spring are easily reconcilable.
The p%eninsular peach region covers a
small area, perhaps less than $500
square miles, but 1t is a region with
considerable variety of climate and
with varying susceptibility to frost. A
single cold night may destroy half the
peach buds in the interior of the PENN
sula and leave uninjured orchards
growing near the two bays. Orchards
close beside water courses escape
frosts that seriously damage trees on
neighboring tracts; orchards on light
soils are less subject to damage than
those on clays. A report of serious
damage to the peach crop often refers
to a small area bearing only a few
thousand trees, while the number of
peach trees in the whole peniRsular
peach region runs up into the millions.

came in while the president was deliv-

to restrain his enthusiasm until it was
concluded. When the president had
finished, the servants of the mansion
came forward with their con-
gratulations, and to one of
them, colored man from Vir-
ginia,he said jocularly: "Now, Joy. you
be sure to find 'possum for me as soon
as the frost falls" The president then
excused himself and the visitors left the
house. Mrs. Harrison, who has been an
invalid for weeks, was kept in ignorance
of the exciting events of the past week.
Now that there was no longer any
doubt as to the nomination of the presi-
dent, it was concluded that the news
would do her no harm. The president
himself impaired the information and
the result justified his Judgment. 1t
told on her like a tonic, and she was
brighter and more cheerful than she

dent afterwards went out for drive

children had spent the day, and he
brought them home with him.

a Tribute TO the Irish Girl.

Chicago News.
Do you know how very pretty a
pretty Irish girl is? She is like
glass of fine, clear chablis. She hasn't
the champagne sparkle of the Amer
lean girl. the beery tranquility of the
German Fraulein, nor the vermouth
suggestiveness of m'selle, our French
cousin.
She does not intoxicate, neither does
she sooth. nor yet inspire, but she al
lures you.
There IS something enduring yet
evanescent and tieeting, and it draws
you on and on. She is like draught
of pure, sparkling spring water that re-
freshes and never pals. She is tall,
slender and round.
Crisp little black curls lie against her
white neck. There is nothing creamy
or peachy about her skin; it is clear red
and white. Her teeth are as white as
the driven SNOW. Her lips are as rubies
and her smile captivates and entrances.

a Lost Secret.

New England newspapers are telling
a strange story of the life near Stock
bridge, Mass, of peculiar character
named George Clifton Crosby. He has
lately lost his mind and been taken to
an insane asylum. From his early youth
Crosby manifested wonderful mechan-
ical genius, and worked at trade until
thirty-five years ago disappointment in
love drove him to his solitary life. He
worked at gun mending and making,
and made for himself some guns which
were wonders in their way 1t was
discovered that they were twist-bore
guns, and how TO make a twisi-bore gun
the government wanted to know, and
many times tried to get his secret from
him in vain. Crosby said his secret
should die with him, and it probably
will.
