Without Benefit of Whisliers.

DR.. j. ID. LANDRUM OF Columbia. South
Carolinian Of tho oldest school and of the
finest eighteenth-century manners. has just
arrived In Oklahoma, bearing with him his
commission as n Special Agent OF the
Treasury. The expedient by which he
wrung this commission from Mr. CLEyE-
LAND was rich in the simplicity of genius.
We take this history from the Washington
correspondence OF our esteemed contempo-
rary. tho Atlanta Constitution.
When Or. r.LANDRUM arrived in Washington
aweek or two ago he wore an Old Testament
beard OF n driven-snow color. 1t Is said to
have been beautiful, and there Is evidence
that the owner priced 1t highly. Flo had
heard that Mr.. CLEVELAND favored the
GRESHAM rather than the HoKE SMITH order
\ offacial architecture. Careful observers had
told the South Carolinian that "it was gener-
ally understood that the President admres
whiskers." and had dilated to him upon tho
ardor with which young applicants for
Consulships or Legation Secretaryships
gazed at the glass every morning. cursing
the tardy upshooting of the beard. for
which they longed with all the pathos of
beardless young gentlemen just out OF the
Medical School. These things to hear did
DIR. LANDRUM seriously incline, and on the
day which was to crown or crush his hopes
ut tho White House. he went thither con-
fdently. rejoicing In his wide and fiossy
whiskers as the most emphatic of creden-
tials. To DO sure. they didn't match his
hair. which is described as dark. by nature
let us hope. and not by art Still. before
President who looks kindly upon whskers
1t is well to be provided with a fine. grow
ing crop Of the same. Full Of cheerful an
ticipation. DIR. LANDRUM was introduced to
Mr.. CLEVELAND. to whom be offered his
modest petition. The austerity OF history
requires us to produce an original docu-
ment Mt this point:
"The President eyed the aged applicant for mo
ment Then. turning TO him In qaiet but firm way,
which WAS Intended TO END the Interview. sAidi
"'Ia very sorry Doctor but Icannot give you what
you want DsmisSng the applicant with polite
bow. he turned to others who were waiting"

garniture. they are carried from farm to
railway sta u in light wagons specially
constructed for the purpose and arranged
TO mold adouble deck Of peach baskets. The
driver is a negro, and the team is pair of
horses or mules
Time is everything with the peach farm
er, so the team is driven at a rapid gait
There are someillusions touching the peach
that n truthful historian must dispel A
peach orchard in fun bloom is not "a beauti-
ful sight. because all trees planted for com.
merclal purposes are grated, ana the bios
som of the grated tree is not the brilliant
and beautiful flower that one sees on the
volunteer tree that has sprung up alone
from peach seed carelessly dropped.
Neither is the ripe fruit as it hangs upon
the tree a specially beautiful sight, save at
close quarters, because in the case of per
fectly healthy trees that are not laden be-
yond their own good the thick green leaves
hide the fruit from an observer standing at
little distance. But a peach that really
ripens on the tree and is eaten in the or
chard is a beautiful and luscious thing.
And when the crop is large, as this year,
peachgrOwer does not offer his guest "a sim
gle peach or a dozen peaches but sets him
down to a whole basket and bids him eat
When the peach season has fairly set IN,
all other interests become insipnifcaut
Everybody talks about the price and dual
ity of peaches, and every idle man may work
If he will. The very air about the railway
stations and along the roads cdgiu- the or
chards is redolent Of the peach aroma, and
the dusk is melolious with the songs OF
negroes driving homeward from orchard or
landing
The peach season throughout the peuin-
sula sets in between the middle and the last
of July, continues to increase i'm activity
until the last week Of August, is brisk well
through September and ends late in Octo
ber Everybody here knows the varieties
of the peach by name. The Troth, Early
Horks and Mountain Rose come in July,
Reeves Fayorite, Crawford s EARLY, Moore's
Old Nixon, Crawford's Late, Stump of the
World, Silver Medal Prize and Susuue-
hanna come in August, the Smock in Sep
tember and the Algiers Winter i'm October.
The peninsula peach was never better than
it now is, and the fuvoritcs of 20 years ago
are still in demand. A few special varieties
such as the Heath, white cling peach, sell
dom reach the ordinary consumer but are
brought up for canning, and thus preserved
fetch high price
There are many ways of selling peaches
Sometimes the peachgrower sends his fruit
from day to day to commission merchants

Huu I,uaai.
The office Of Justice Bailey, on West LLOYD
street. was the scene of very animated law
sIit last evening Adam Kabold. who now
runs butcher shop in Dougherty's property
ON West Coal Get, dealt choice cuts Tor some
time in the property of Anthony Tobak, on
the same street. Anthony ordered Kabold to
quit the premises. which he did, and then
Io6ak sued for rent in arrears and damages
to the property. This was the cause of last
nights litigation. Both parties were repre-
scented by counsel, TObak by Lawyer Beddal.
and habold by NJ. N, Burke, Esq. Kabold
won hrst blood by having the claim for dam
ages set aside and Juen Tobak looked mysti
ned and talked in very higa German. The
real fun was over the rent. Iobak could NOT
produce his lease, or book accounts, or auy
dates OF paymeu, Or any evidence es
ta0lishing ms claim Mr.. Burke refused to
allow hls client to testify, alleging that the
plalnIih had made out nothing hat should or
need be replied to. Then the ATTORNEYS
merged into wordy war and the Venerable
Justice sought relief by continuing the case 20
Monday evening. West Lloyd street residents
were out en- 0'asse to witness the fun.

Will Soon be Shipping Steel.

The new LIano BeSSemer Development
company, recently organized here, will
commence operations Immediately and
has already made its arrangements to
commence mining the BeSSemer steel ore.
Capt. A. {. Schryver, who is one of the
directors, believes that within less than
three weeks they will be shipping this ore
to Velasco, where it will find ready
market.
1t is superior to the Cuban BeSsemer
ore. which is imported to this country at
the rate of over 100000 tons per annum,
and has not only the advantage of Su-
periority in quality, but can be mined
cheaper and has no duty on it, so it is des-
timed to supercede the Cuban product.
The reduction and blast furnaces and
smelterS contemplated are soon to be con-
Structed near LlanO, and within very
short time the metallic and mineral ship
ment will be enormous.
