Nothing is now more universally &C
cep,-d than the fact that the peach is
an improved variety of the almond. The
almond has a thin shell around the
stone. which splits open and shows the
stone when mature. This outer skin has
simply become feshy in the peach, so
that it is all that gives it its specific
character. 1t seems now clear from in
v~estigation in the history of ancient
Babylon that in their gardens, near
ly 4.Go years ago.. the peach was
cultivated then as il now is. 1t must
have been many years before this that
the peach was improved from the al
mond, and this fact goes to show the
great antiquity of the fruit. Possibly
gardening in some respects. at least so
far as it relates to many of our cult
waited fruits, was as far advanced 500
or 5000 or perhaps 1900 years back as
1t is to-day.
Phoenicians, many thousands of years
ago. as is proved by the records. had in
their gardens almonds, apricots, ba
nanas, %citrons. figs, grapes, olives,
peaches, pomegranates. and even sugar
cane was in extensive cultivation. Ger
tainly this shows how far advanced
these nations were in garden culture
many years ago.

Postal Facilities in Harlem.

when getting of a car and attempting to cross
the other track.
The Company, 1t is said. has experimental with

The match came about in a curious
way. The colts nave never met in u
race. As a t~wo-year-old Tammany was
started only a few times. Lamplighter
was "a sluggish youngster and was not
uttered in many stakes. As three-year-
ids the plans OF the owners of the colts
again kept them from meeting. Matt
Byrnes devoted his attention to winning
the three-year-old stakes, while Lamp
lighter vas thrown into all Kinds Of
races.
Both were successful at their respec-
tive games. Tammany was sick last
FAN, but on his recovery he had several
chances to meet L~amplighter. Byrnes,
however, did not care TO risk defeat,
and the cry arose that he was lodging
the issue. This accusation hurt Byrnes,
and he never forgot 1t.
This year IammanY went lame. and
II was not until "A few weeks Z that
Byrnes succeeded in getting him to the
post, His race was so good that Byrnes
cried eXultantly:
Now let them bring out their Lamp
lighter. IN show them that l am not
dodging."
Judge Newton. the matchmaker Of the
Coney Island Athletic Club, at once set
to work to bring about the much-de-
sired meeting. There was considerable
backing and filling on both sides. but
the match was finally made.
Botn horses are how at Gutenberg.
Tammany made the journey safely to-
tay, and is installed in Jimmy McCor-
mick's stable. Lamplighter is in W.

The records OF the tive horses prove
nothing, They have been made under

An expensive fad has just been re-

washing these is to make a strong

water with a spoonful OF ammonia.
Wash the gloves thoroughly, rubbing

PEsTEN BY TIE MlCHIpE

Senator Charles r. McClelland. Of
Westminster, has been a useful legisla-
tor at Albany and one whose integrity
has never been questioned. He has been
a steady and unfinching Democrat. but
has acted Independently OF machine
politics whenever he has considered tina
the interests Of the State demanded in
dependent action.
Last year he was opposed to the cleo
ton of Edward Murphy, jr., as United
States Senator and voted against him in
the Democratic caucus. as he had a per
feet right to do.
taking power from one set of Democrats
In Buffalo who had been elected by the
people and transferring 1t to another set
OF Democrats who had been defeated by
the pee pie.
For these Independent acts he was
turned down by the rarity leaders.
and another Democrat was nominated
in his place. Westminster County is
controlled by the New York organiza-
ton.
When asked by The World' II he
contemplated running as an independent
candidate. Senator McClelland replied
that he had nc such intention, adding
that he was a Democrat who voted for
the party's nominees.
1t Is to be regretted that the power OF
the machine should be used to deprive
the State of the services OF a capable,
honest and experienced legislator.

call attetion to the answer filed
by Supt. Brockway in a suit
brought against him in the Supreme
Court, in this city, for damages by on,
OF his former victims N the Reforma-
tory.
The plaintiff was subjected to a
course Of padding which nearly caused
his death, and has permanently de
stroyed his health. He claims damages
because the padding was an inhumau
torture. contrary to law.
Brockway in his answer pleads that
any act of his towards he plaintiff was
Cone by him in his official capacity As
Superintendent, and 'in accordance with
the rules and regulations made by III,
Board Of Managers FOR the government
OF the institution"
ThuB BroCiiway claims that the illega!
and brutal acts for which he is now on

for him by them, and which as their
subordinate he was bound to follow.

There is nothing so tempting, yet at
the same time so rude, as the desire
to ak about your fellow-companions
in public places. AS many a person has
been deservedly snubbed for such im-
politeness, a couple OF girls resolved to
escape any danger in that direction
and at the same time enjoy talking
about their %neighbors to their hearts
content. This is the way they obviated
the difficulty
"A, b. c, d, +, +, G-D!d you ever
see such a fright OF a woman? H, l. J,
X, l., NJ, n"
ar, s, T, [, N-Isn't she perfectly
AWFUL? ", y, y, L."
In this way they argue that no one
can tell from the motion OF their lips
that they are talking about any one. and
certainly the style Is sufficiently mis-
leading 10 confuse even themselves, we
should imagine.
