PIE.
4 Few Seasonahle Statistics About a popu-
lar American Production.


lar American Production.
The consumption Of pies in this city. says
the New York Sun. is increasing steadily and
largely, but the increase is not quite so great
proportionately as the increase OF the popula-
ton. This is due to the fact that many of the
foreign-born residents are not pie consumers;
they are beginning to take to pie, however, and
the number OF those who eat them is increas-
ing. The native citizens taste ior pie appears
to remain about the same and the average
American consumption about keeps pace with
the increase OF that portion OF the population,
but its distribution is changed somewhat; the
home consumption is now less than formerly
ana the restaurant and lunch room consump-
ton more.
Forty years ago practically every family
had a pie for dinner; they expected to have
pie as much as they expected to set table.
In those DAYS Strawberries came in about the
first week in June, but they were not SO much
in demand for pies as cherries were, which
came from Staten Island and from Long Isl
and about the middle of June. Everybody
wanted cherry pie. and there was nothing
to take the place OF it. Now people so out of
the city for the Fourth of July; then people
came into the city. and for days and nights
before the bakers OF the city were kept busy
to get cherry pies enough baked to supply
the demand on the Fourth of july. That WIS
the end of the cherry pie season. Early in
July came huckleberries from Aew Jersey.
The huckleberry was also a pie that every
body ate; it may be said that many pleasant
memories cluster round the huckleberry pie.
The first of the green apples came in July.
before the huckleberries went: apples lasted
right along until the next Spring. Green
plums came in August, and in those days pies
were made of wild grapes.
Now the season OF pies made OF green fruits
is much extended. We begin to get good
Strawberries from the South as early Gs April;
we get good pineapples by the middle of May,
rhubarb and goosaberries by the 1st of June,
and huckleberries from North Carolina by the
middle of June; we get blackberries in July.
Cherries and apples are the same as before.
OF 100 pies made at the present time and sea-
son the proportions in kinds would be about
as follows.

The Coon Got His Nose in Front and Won
the Stake.
! NEW YORK, June 23.-The attendance was
very large at Sheepshead Bay to-day for the
weather and the card. In the Foam stakes
| Gutta Percha was odds-on favorite, but as
usual when she was a strong favorite she
could not win the Coon getting his nose in
| front at the critical period. Stonenell in the
| opening race won as he pleased from a poor
field. Melody looked a winner all over in the
third race, but Deception came fast in the
last eighth and nipped her on the post at good
! odds.
The Coney Island handicap was the me-
! dium OF much betting. Sirocco having a shade
| the better OF Armitage. Hurlingham and Prig,
| but they finished in that order, although Prig
| gave up badly in the last sixteenth. Roche
| had no difficulty whatever in winning his
race from Herald and Spread Eagle. although
the latter looked dangerous for minute.
The sixth race, for seling-platers, was an easy
| victory for Lord Harry.

Ordinances Engemann Refund Case.
Proposed boulevard.

The Commissioners yesterday appointed
Michael Thompson hostler at the Washington
| Asylum; also Ellen Smith and Mary Tyler
cooks at the same institution
Senator German has been requested by the
| Commissioners to add TO the District appro-
! pratlon bill the sum of $1,000 for widening
the embankments of Connecticut avenue ex-
| tended.
William B. Price, OF Baltimore. has applied
to the Commissioners for permit to exhibit
his patent street car fender.
The Commissioners have requested Congress
to pass a law legaiizing the ordinance OF the
late board OF health, land that the same powers
and duties vested in that board be given the
health oft6e.
The Commissioners. in answer to a concur
rent resolution Of Congress naming tine White
Lot Grand Army Place" suggested that
"Grand Army Lott or Grand Army Circle
is preferable to Grand Army Place"
George H. Engemann has applied to the
Commissioners for refund OF the license
money he paid December last for horse racing
at Ivy City. He paid 500 for the license,
but was only allowed to race three DAYS. be-
ing compelled by the authorities of the United
States to abandon the track and quit racing.
E. V. O'Brien, of No. 1O9 street north
west writes the Commissioners that a good
way to keep the city cool at night would be
to have the fire department flood the con-
creted streets every night, and thus subdue
the excessive heat that arises from the tar
pavemepts.
Engineer Commissioner Powell has COM
pleted the drawings of the proposed boule-
ward that will extend along the Piney Branch
and Spring roads, connecting the Zoo" and
Soldiers Home Park Along the Piney
Branch il will be go feet in width and on the
Spriug road it will be 160 feet wide Piney
Branch is followed along its course, and on
either side will be handsome driveways.
These drives will be lined with shade trees.
This boulevard is to form part of grand
driveway around the city and will be con-
nected with many of the proposed parks.
If completed miles of pleasure driving will
be given the citizens through the most de-
lightiul part of The District. This boulevard
forms part of the proposed city street exten-
sion, and is matter that Capt. Powell has
given much attention to.
For some time past the residents at the foot
of Second and Third streets southeast have
been making vigorous complaints about the
condition of the sewer IN that part of the city.
The stencil arising from 1t is simply unbeara-
bic. They want the attention of the autLori-
ties called to its condition before their Oh
factory nerves are completely shattered.

Ho Had Abundant Reason TO Be Suspi

There was a bright new fifty-cent piece Iy-
ing on the pavement, when a bow-backed
man with satchel came along from the de-
pot. He saw the coin while he was vet twenty
| feet away, and he made a sudden forward
rush to get it. The movement was almost in
stantly checked, however and he walked
| slowlyfcrward and backed to the curbstone
| and stood there and gazed at the coin with
| foxy look on his countenance. In about a
minute pedestrian came up, saw the coin,
and reached for it and put it in his pocket.
Observing the attitude of the old man at the
| same time he turned and queried:
1T didn't belong to you did it?'
"Wall. / swami" was the reply.
