SUGAR-BEET CULTURE.
Tariff Uncertainty Proving a Drawback
to 1t i'm Indiana.

Information is being received from diff
ferent parts of the State concerning the
cultivation of sugar beets which leads to
the conclusion that the tariff agitation and
the strong probability that the bounty on
sugar will be removed will very greatly
delay the investigation and experiments Of
Indiana farmers in the culture of sugar
beets. Experiments have been made in Wa
bash county, and, in fact, all along the Wa
bash valley, which proved very satisfac-
tory, and the industry was in a fair way
of being Engaged. 1t is thought by the most
prominent agriculture men of the State
that Indiana presents rich field for this
product. Seed was distributed among the
counties of the State three years ago, and
was beginning to create considerable inter-
est among farmers. The product resulting
from the experiment then made was ana
lyZed by specialist and proved to contain
large per cent. of saccharine matter
which was sufficient to warrant a further
investigation. Some days since the Board
of Trade as was mentioned i'm the Journal
had inquiry from the United Sugar Syndi-
cate, of New York city, advocating the be-
lief that Indiana was great field for the
growth of the sugar beet, and if, upon a
successful experiment, it would be found
that they would be justified, they intended
to erect factory at this or some other
point in the State for the manufacture of
the product. This matter also is in statu
quo, and must remain until something
definite is known.

AT THE BUM ROOM.
The Cold Night Brings Unfortunates to
the Police Station.

1t was the heaviest night of the season at
the bum room of the police station and
at 1 o'clock this morning there were all
sorts and conditions of snores disturbing the
silence. 1t was "30' on the register-not
the 800 of newspaper office, when all the
tired brain workers go home, but the ''30' of
the bum room-just the number OF tranps
it takes to cover the floor OF the room when
ALI of them sandwich together in army fash
ion. The bum room is strictly a winter
resort and the recent cold wave brought the
unfortunates to it's shelter.

if they have been here before; that's all.
Our object in doing this is TO prevent men

The men in the room last night ranged all

Flower Mission Cases.

Work done by the Flower Mission Wis
itors for the old and the very young awa<-
en- more sympathy than others. The rea-
son is probably because they much
more helpless. The mission is called upon
every week for assistance for elderly
people, and the visitor generally goes with
out any delay, and without instructions
from anyone The cases which have been
helped from week TO week vary. Some of
those who are helped grateful for what
the visitor does, and many others take
their offerings as matter of course. A
than seventy years of age came to the So
ciety day, and it given to
member. When she visited the place the
old woman was found to be all alone. She
had not a relative i'm the world, and could
call only two women in the city her friends.
She knitted for living, and supported
herself altogether. She used to go to mar
ket occasionally to sell what she had made.
IL can be imagined that woman OF her
age could not earn much i'm that way, but
she kept soul and body together till she
Iell Ill and was obliged to have assistance
from some source. When the visitor Ques-
toned her she found that she had been SUI
fering for some time. The woman had
three cancers and she had left them So
could be done. The visitor had her
moved 10 the hospital, where she was eX-
amined, and that was the word that the
physician gave her. The Flower Mission
had her taken 10 st. Vincents Hospital
and paid her board of $3.50 per week til
she died. Before she was taken from her
room she caught the visitor by the hand
and said, IF YOU leave me and do not come
again / will surely die Late I'm June the
visitor expected 10 go away for a month
and she went to the hospital TO say good

bye to the patient The old lady drew her
head down to the bed and put her arms
about her neck and kissed her, telling her
that she would never see her again and
she wanted to bless her and thank her for
what she had done. No matter how much
the visitor tried TO impress it on her that
It was not herself, but the mission, who
was caring for her, she did not seem to
be able to comprehend that and gave all
the credit and the gratitude to the visitor.
A case which has been cared for by the
mission for over four years is still receiv-
Ing attention. 1t is of street-car conduc-
tor, with a. wife and three children. The
pany, and was recommended for diligence
and honesty He became i'll with consump-

When the case was brought to the atten-
ton Of the mission they were living in a
house which was lower than the street,
and was SO damp that when the mating on
the floor was removed it was rotten and
full Of mildew. One of the first things the
visitor did was to secure dry quarters for
the family. Ever since that time they have
been cared for The Benevolent Society has
paid the rent and the mission has fed
warmed and dressed the whole family ever
since. One Of the children has died since
the mission took the case, but the man is
too ILL., the children too small and the moth
er too weak to do anything towards the
support Of any member of the family. They
Will probably be in the care Of the mission
for some time to come.

GATHERED THEM IN
Police Arrest the Principals i'm the
Recent Prize Fight.
1t Is the Intention to Also Apprehend
the Bottle-Holders, Reporters
and Spectators.

Chris Wrade and Charles Grimm. the
principals in the prize fight which
occurred on the canal banks near
Brighton Beach Tuesday night, were both
arrested yesterday and held for prize fight
ing. The night of the fight the police were
misled as to the place where it was to be-
had, and arrived upon the scene too late
to prevent the fight Later warrants were
sworn out for the arrest of the principals
and placed in the hands of detectives
Dougherty and McGuff to arrest them.
Wrade was found at the National card
works, at Gatling street and the Belt rail-
road, where he is employed. and brought to-
the police station. Anton Schmidt, a saloon
keeper near the Belt on Shelby street, and
ex-Councilman from the Fourteenth ward,
accompanied him to the police station and
became surety for his appearance in the
Police Court this morning. He has re-
tanned Arthur Brown, county attorney, to
defend him, and will make vigorous de-
fenSe.
About 7:30 o'clock last night the same
officers arrested Charles Grimm, and he
was lodged at the police station The sec
onds. referee, time keeper, reporters and
others who witnessed the fight will proba-
bly, be arrested If the police can find out

Pittshurg Disnatch.


Americans smoke with their eyes rather
than with their mouths" said Victor Mall
ga, the Key West cigar manufacturer, yes
terday. 'I mean by this. that in order To
make cigar sell well in America Ii must
look pretty An American will not buy
cigar, no matter how good material you
use, If its appearance is not pleasing to the
eye. Imagination plays great part in ths
selection of a cigar. 1 have seen people
come in a store and complain about tho
appearance of a cigar proffered by the
dealer. While the customer was not look
ing the dealer picked another cigar from
the same box and asked him how he liked
this. That's just what L want Now In
the future i want you to always give me
this cigar. 1t just suits me- Then other
customers have an idea that a light wrap
per indicates mild cigar. The wrapper
has little TO do in making a cigar either
mild or strong, the filler in a light cigar
might be stronger than that Of dark
cigar. 1t is a peculiar fact that a man
can't judge cigar in the dark. This shows
where imagination comes in. 1t is stated
that If it was not for the light a person
smoking in the dark would not know
whether his cigar was burning or not"

Notes of the Fair.

Gen. Lew Wallace was one of the visitors
to the fair last evening, and yesterday
afternoon General Harrison and Mrs. j. r.
Mckee and children were among those
present.
a large box of roses were sent to the
ladies of the flower booth yesterday by the
florist Frank Saak, and other donations
were made by some who have been con-
tributing through the week.
In the doll booth there is fine tailor
made gowned doll and the ladies have
named her Shirley Daley. She is an ar
tistically dressed article, and the child or
young girl who can have her for a Christ
mas gift will be happy indeed.
1t has been suggested that if the flowers
and the Erminie inhabitants and some of
the other beautifully costumed ladies had
some of their photographs in costume for
sale that an enormous amount OF money
would be taken. AS a whole they have
rever looked more attractive than they do
this year.
