Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1893-02-09

Amyatt's little friend did write to
him again, a letter full OF glee caused
by his. Then Amyatt answered that,
for he couldn't leave the poor little
woman's pretty words unanswered,
don't you know; and so, before long,
quite a brisk correspondence passed
to and fro between them
He still kept up his nom de plume,
though for no particular reason other
than that he wished to avoid the
trouble OF an explanation, and it
was all the same to her; and long let
ters filled with accounts ..ot her child's
life or with her opinions OF his char
acters came to HIM regularly,
and was as regularly answered.
Sometimes ne would send her a
book, and often she would send him
q little box of flowers, which
adorned his buttonhole.
"Rather new departure for you,
Ell, old chap" Trevor limited.
Better late than never" returned
the major, cheerfully.
II always thought Amvatt would
take it badly If he did take it," con-
fded the senior captain to Arlington.
"Ah, but you didn't think he ever
would take it," Arlington said by way
of reminder.
"Well, that's true" Trevor admit
ted.
Amyatt, however, knew nothing of
the gossip in the regiment concerning
him other than what Trevor had act
ually said to him; for, in spite of his
great popularity, there was certain
something about him which effectual-
lY prevented even that familiarity

GEN. sT.sCLAlR AGAIN.

Very few persons who sat at tho
banquet table at the dinner given
to President Palmer by the Nation
al Commission mt the Auditorium
realized how near there came to
being bloodshed over the making
mp Of the toast card.
General st Clair, OF tho Council
of Administration, was to have been
morksman, and some OF the com.
mittce on the banquet werc to have
been the ones TO meet an untimcIy
end. There could have been M
mistake about the result, for Con.
st. Clair is known to be brave
man and good shooter, 30 that
when his southern blood is heated
he is apt to FIJI few graves for past
time. 1t appears that III making
up the toast card somo Of tho COM
mittee wanted to put General st,
Glars name down for speech.
II Is limited that others thought as
Jadgo Massey, one OF the Adminis-
tration Council, was TO preside, it
would be Sufficiently we'll represen-
ted. When the toast card came
from the hands of the printer, il
was found that the name of General
st. Clair had been left off.
About the same time the warrior,
who was thought to be in Washing
ton. also appeared on the scene,
and ii is said that great streaks of
blue vapor were seen to issue from
his vicinity. He swore that he
would get up a banquet himself and
charge it to the Com mission, and
made whole lot Of other threats,
which sent cold chiIls running
down the backs of the banquet
committee. A bssty consultation
was held, and 1t was decided that
the only hope for the committee lay
in the fact that death or accident
might remove one speaker.
One Of the morning papers con-
tains this statement "J. Sterling
Morton, Secretary Of Agriculture,
who was to have responded TO the
toast, The President of the United
States bad been called to Wash.
ington, and j. w. St. Clair, Com
missioner from West Virginia, was
pressed into service at the eleventh
honr to take Mr.. Morton's place."
Further comment is unnecessary.

It would never do to let her off scot

himself up to his full height, looked
down at her for proper length Of

While all of the Senators and
Representatives are doubtless glad
OF the opportunity to go home for
few days before the beginning Of
the regular session, there are quite
a number Of prominent Democrats
who expressed the opinion that it
would have been better TO have let
the extra session run right along
until the time for beginning the
regular session. The majority,
however, thcught that no time
would be sayed by remaining IN
session, and the majority rules,
usually, in the Democratic party.

Tn. california Orange Crop.

The orange market of southern Cali
fornia Is in a peculiar condition. The
largest crop on record is on the trees
awaiting shipment, amounting probably
10 $500 carloads, against $500 last year
and 800 for the previous season. Only
n few hundred carloads have been shipped
no far.
IL has been reported that there is a
combine among southern California
orange growers 10 hold their crop for 50
box. This is only true TO limited ex-
tent. There is no general combination
among growers. Local unions have been
formed In several localities 10 maintain
prices and facilitate shipments, but these
only represent portion Of the crop and
do not work In unison. The most i'm
portant Of these unions is that of River
side, which represents seven-eighths Of
the crop OF that place, or about 200
boxes. The rest Of the crop controlled by
local organizations will probably bring
up the aggregate 80 held to about $500
boxes, or less than half the total crop.
Buyers are holding off, being unwill-
ing TO consign while the eastern pur-
chasers are not inclined 10 risk buying.
The weather In the east has been very
cold. and there is still large quantity
Of good Florida fruit to be shipped;
hence there is at present sort Of dead
lock. Local firms are offering for choic-
est Riverside navels &3 per box at the
shipping point and lower, according to
quality, and for ordinary San Gabriel
valley navels $i.75 is about the best
price obtainable, which does not satisfy
the growers. Cor San Francisco Chron-
