A Sacred Fruit.

One of the most curious species Of
known fruit is the holy or sacred cit
ron" of the Jews. Its virtues are lauded
to the skies, and it is celebrated in leg
end, romance. poetry and song, and
yet it appears that it is never eaten. 1t
is known in most all oriental countries,
but appears TO be most highly esteemed
by the Moorish Jews of Tunis and Mo-
rocco. On the streets of the last named
city it is sold at about s cents per fruit.
These fruits are generally purchased by
bands CT rowing pilgrims, the members
of religious professions and Jewish
priests.
When one of these sacred citrons falls
into the hands of a priest, he takes it to
the synagogue, where it is kept to be
used in some emblematic rite during the
time of the great feast of the tabernacles.
Not only in oriental countries are these
holy fruits known and esteemed, but in
Germany, Russia, France, Spain and in
England. They are probably used in
American Jewish synagogues to some x-
tent, but such use would be necessarily
limited. In England, SO I am informed,
good specimens of holy citrons bring as
much as so shillings each, there being
whole companies which make their i'm
portation a ''side line"
The useof this unique fruit is supposed
to be derived from the injunction con-
tanned in the tw~enty-third chapter of the
book Of Leviticus Exchange.

New Method of starting Street Cars.

new NAetnou OF starting street Cars
The latest method Of starting street
cars in Denver is said to result in q saw
ing of at least 80 per cent over the cost
of the ordinary system. The difficulty
of maintaining schedule time with q
large number of cars is well recognized,
and on many lines if the car be delayed
by an accident for a quarter of an hour
or 90 minutes the whole line will be so
demoralized that schedule time will not
be overtaken during the whole day. In
the city of Denver there are IA miles Of
electrical and 10 miles of cable tracks.
requiring 1903 trains in daily operation.
To obviate the Inconvenience which q
breakdown of any kind inevitably causes
a system of telephone circuits has been
arranged with various call points, all
communicating with the head Office. Ev-
cry conductor on arriving at the termi-
nus of the route Immediately reports the
number of his car to headquarters and
receives in reply his proper leaving time
and any instructions that may be neces-
sary. The dispatch clerk is in this way
advised of the whereabouts of each car
and is very often enabled TO fill up q
space of from 80 to 60minutes caused by
a parade" The saving Of starters at
the various termini is taken as a setof
against the expense of the telephones

Report That Cleveland Will Consult
New York Senators.
NEW YORK. June 3-An Albany spe-
cial to The Herald says: A surprising
political story was told In this city.
It is to the effect that President Cleve-
land has said thas the senator's from
New York state must be consulted in
matters of federal appointments IN
their respective localities.
Rumor has it that q certain Trojan
anti-snapper came to Albany and asked
Judge Herrick to help him capture the
Troy ~postoffice. He was told that tine
president had decided to recognize the
right of q United States senator to con-
sideration when appointments were to
be made in his home city.
None of the principals in the matter
will talk. and this Is held by the ma
chine men to be as significant az an
admission of the truth of tho rumor.
Ii the rumT is true 1t will account
for the unusual quiet which pervades
the machine camp in this city, but to
give Senator Hill control Of federal
appointments in Albany would be .
concession little Less than miraculous.
Senator Murphy might be favored in
Troy. but Senator Hill, although the
principle would be the same, could
hardly expect such consideration here.
Tt must be said, hOwevtr, that many
politicians affect to believe there. il

points the same results followed, and
not a dollars worth of goods can be
purchased OF credit at any Of these

Famous Figureheads.

William Rush's father was a shiL
carpenter, and from his youth the
son was fond of ships. Often when
a boy he would cut out miniature
vessels from blocks of wood and ex-
ercise his artistic talent in drawing
upon boards figures in chalk and
paints. When he commenced work
in this country, there was no demand
for the productions of native sculp-
tors consequently to make living
Rush was obliged to carve prowheads
for vessels, then in common use. By
1900 he had attained considerable rep
utation as a sculptor and carver in
wood and time matured his talents.
At an early date in his career his
figureheads began to be noticed in
foreign ports. The figure of an In
dian trader on the ship William Penn
was much admired in London.
The wood carvers there, it is re-
ported, would come in boats and lie
near the ship to sketch designs of the
figurehead. This was but a few years
after the Revolutionary war. An
other notable prowhead which Rush
carved was the figure of river god
for the ship Ganges. So well known
abroad did his work at last become
that the house of Nicklin & Griffeth
of Philadelphia received many orders
from England for figureheads to be
made by Rush to adorn ships built
on the other side of the Atlantic.
One of the most celebrated of these
carvings was a female figure of
Commerce. "-Lippincott's.

Cowboys and the slecp,r.

Two Texas cowboys recently had
the novel experience of travelling by
rail over the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas road. But they seemed to
feel uncomfortable from the time the
train pulled out from the point that
they got on out in the brush. When
they got in the Wagner sleeper, one
of them said TO the otaer:
"Bll, you'll have to take your
spurs offern your hoofs if you expect
to put boots on the top of that seat.
Bill did SO and then seemed panied
and surprised when the porter told
him that passengers were not ex-
pected to put their feet on the plush
covered seats. He toyed with his
gun until the porter retired. When
he rolled a cigarette and lit it, and
the conductor showed him where the
smoking receptacle of the vestibuled
train was, he seemed annoyed.
At supper time, when all of the
passengers on the buffet gave their
orders and the two cowboys gave
theirs, telling the porter to bring
them "all there was on the pro-
gramme and be sure to bring them
plenty of sardines," they handed the
porter a $5 bill and were surprised
when he asked them for 10 cents
more
Both of tlsem said: THAT settles
it. If we stay in this here concern,
that niger will have the whole roll
before we get to the next station.
No wonder the gang hold up the
trains, but [ am surprised at 'em goin
after the mail when they would have
such soft snap with this coon in the
high toned corral. If ever l was to
go into the train robbery business, 1
would go coon huntin first and get
the black scoundrel that wanted four
bits for slickin up our boots"
They quit the train at the next
wayside station. Atlanta Constitu-
ton.
