et Dinner speech.
The genial old philanthropist Horace
Greeley, went to New Orleans after the
south had taken him TO her heart In
grateful recognition of his action in go-
Ing ON the JEFF Davis bail bond, and the
people were anxious To show him every
attention In their power.
A dinner seemed to be the proper
thing, and the markets Of New Orleans,
than which there are few better In the
world, were ransacl1ed to make the oc-
casion as notable for it's viands as for
the distinction of the guest and the din
ers Judge Walker, the veteran editor
of The Picayune, presided. He was q
great gormand, and after the manner
Of gormands wished none Of the fine
points Of the dinner 90 be lost 20 the
guest for lack of commentary.
''Mr. Greeley, = said be, these oys-
ters are the best that come to our mar
ket, and we think they Vie with those
OF Norfolk. observe that you are not
eating them. =
"Well, no. !" replied Greeley. .1The
truth IL I never could abide shell6sh. |"
And he passed.
Then came sorn6, delicious green tur-
tie soup. which Judge Walker explain

tle the Florida bays could afford

The pompano, imperial hsh that it L.
and fresh from the gnlf, was open TO

Mr.. Greeley barely tasted the accompa-
nying Partisan dainty and shock his
head ruefully at the idea that anybody
would impair his digestion by eating
cucumbers Shrimp salad. another New
Orleans delicacy, proved no more to1npt-
ing. Shrimps No said. looked 30 much
like worms that they always give him
the creeps.
"Ah, here is something you viii like
IA homely dish in name, said Judge
Walker, '.but fit fer the gods. Tt is o
Galicia ham. And then he went ON
to tell how the hogs from which thesa
hams were obtained were fed only ON
chestnuts, making the flesh luscious and
delicious.
Perhaps so, very interesting in
deed" observed Greeley, "but do you
know, Judge, that there is SO much talk
of trichina nowadays that wouldn't
dare taste bit of pork.
The judge gave up in despair. The
only things in all the array of dainties
which had been provided which Mr..
Greeley would eat were bread, potatoes
and caulifiower, and he feared that he
might be overlooking his stomach at
that. But when it came to the speak
ing, although he had drunk nothing but
cold water, he spoke as one inspired and
with fervor, eloquence and tender
ness that nobody at the table could ever
forget. - Chicago Inter Ocean.

About a year ago NJ Girard created
great interest in agricultural circles
BY his strenuous advocacy of tree
leaves as cattle food tie held that

other folders. showed a high nourish-

that certain tree leaves are not sur
passed as fodder by the products of
natural prairies or pasture lands
European farmers. among whom the
French have taken the lead, have been
systematically testing NJ. Girard's
ideas by placing their cattle on a tree
leaf diet The results are said TO be
most encouraging. The leaves after
being picked are spread on the barn
floor TO the depth Of 3 or inches, and
are turned once day. The process of
drying takes from three to five days.
according TO the weather, and when
dried the leaves are piled up ready for
