Florida Oranges.

The state of the orange trade. which is
mind is peculiar The trade in that fruit
is at a disadvantage in one respect es-
pecially when the crop is heavy and fine
i is SO because the oranges can only be
distributed by ventilated cars among the
large towns and railroad centres. and are
not-at present, certainly--in use as a
general and popular article Of food, but
rather as ornaments on the tables Of the
we'll TODD But the main trouble is apart
from this. 1t is that when what is known
as ..thc boom in Florida was in progress,
in 49,, to 1876, the bulk Of tile land that
WAS for sale was in the form Of land grants
to railways. land company tracts, and the
sections taken upon homestead rights by
persons who came to Florida simply to
get land for nothing. and who afterward
wanted less Of it. and some cash for what
they could sell. The land thus at hand to
meet the boom was nearly all pine land
All Florida was interested in saying that
this pine land was the best orange land in
the Worltl. 1t is d fact that oranges can
be forced to groM on that land. though
this is often done only at great cost
and when the object is attained the fruit
brings prices that, 70 say the least leave
no profit for the planter. Thus it came
about that ninety nin" one hundledths of
the groves in Florida We're established
where they would not produce returns on
the first Investment: III all probability the
M, joli1y will not pay the second owners.
They are not Oh orange land. On the other
hand a few slrewd investors came ia Flor
ida, and went about the Srate studying the
characteristics and pecu7iarities Of the
business. They noted what sort Of land
and locations promised success, observing
that the lands which produced the best
fruit were confined to certain sorts, and
that the best protection against frost was
water to the noTthwafd or norlWeStward.
These deliberate and observing men find
no fault with their Investments. They
have not only produced what are rated as
the best oranges in the world, but they
have obtained extra, even fancy prices for
their yields, and have made handsome
profits. Halifax and Indian river fruit
for instance, usually grown on high Shell
hammock land or heavy mari hammock
land, is quoted regularly at a dollar above
the market This account of the history
of the trade, concurred in by the shrewd
est planters | met, explains why Florida
oranges differ as they do in quality. The
perfect Florida orange is thin coated,
heavy, full Of sugar and yet with sutfi-
cient sub-acid to give it sprightliness-
like something richer than rich lemon
AIDE. The groves that produce this fruit
will remain and continue to make profits.
Many of the other sort must be abandon
ed, and many of the intermediate value
must be sold for little money to new own
ers. From sour Own Riviera by Julian
Ralph, in Harper's Magazine for March.

reviews, AS Il ulStlncl American pilDlfa-
ton, completed its second year Its rise to
prominence and influence in SO short "a
period is fully admitted in New Y ork pub
LEGATION circles, as well as by experienced
observers throughout the country to be
altogether without precedent To many
minds the relationship between the Eng
fish and American Review of Reviews is
something of Il mystery. 1t is not strange
that the public should imperfectly under
stand an arrangement so entirely unique.
The truth is that the American Review of
Reviews is a distinct periodical, edited
absolutely by Dr. Shaw, and owned by Il
company OF which DR.. Shaw is the presi-
dent as well as the chief stock holder. But
the VIE president of this company and the
next largest stakeholder in il. is Mr. W. L.
Stead nf London. who founded the Eng
lish Review Of Reviews and who edits and
entirely owns that brilliant and faltamed
London periodical. Under the terihs Of
the perfectly intimate relationship exist
ing between the English and American Re
view Of Reviews each periodical has full
access to duplicate copies and advance
proofs Of all the articles prepared for the
other, and each is entitled to a duplicate
set OF all the illustrations devised by the
art department ot its trans-At lantic col
league. DIR. Shaw has the fullest and
freest liberty to use in any way he pleases,
with curtailment or amplitication, the ma
terals supplied by Mr.. Stead, and Mr..
Stead has ON the other hand the same lib
erty as regards the materials prepared for
the American Review of Reviews. The
American magazine has been, upon the
average, some twenty or thirty pages
larger than its English contemporary, and
has, therefore, been enabled to make very
extensive use of the English and foreign
materials. Though differing somewhat in
method, the two periodicals are harmoni
Gus in their general spirit Each is adapt
ed to circulation in its own country.

THE FIGHTING MooRs.


=
MADRID, Nov. 1.-The steamship Africa,
from Melilla, arrived at Malaga. Accord
ing to information brought by her the
Spaniards have made another sortie from
Melilla, and General Ortega Mt the head OF
a column of infantry and body OF cavalry
has succeeded In relieving the garrisons of
the detached forts Rostrogordo and Cabre-
rizas, which have been for some time sur
rounded by Moors. General Ortega also
succeeded in replacing the garrisons of
the forts with fresh troops. The Moors
continue to make desultory attacks upon
the Spanish lines, and lately fred upon
the ship which landed General Marcias,
the new commander of the Spanish forces,
at Melilla.
The news that the Moors murdered and
mutilated the Spanish wounded, and that
the shrieks of the latter could be heard in
the night by their comrades in the forts,
has caused tremendous indignation here
and further increased the war fever
The reports read today confirm the
statement that most serious fighting oc-

batalions Of finfantrysupported by three six
pound guns were required to make way for

Ortega was compelled to push forward In
order to relieve the forts. Seven hours
hard fighting followed, during which the
Arabs are said to have lost a large num-
Der of men.
A special dispatch just received here
from Melilla asserts that at least 100 Span
iards are killed, more than 800 wounded
and over 100 captured, while others are re-
ported missing The fate of the wounded,
captured and missing is said to be too hor-
rible to contemplate, in view of the shock
