COMPARATIVE MERITS OF OUR HOME
SUGAR 'CANE-THE STRIPED
AND THE PURPLE.

From DR.. w. G. Stubs Bulletin No. 2G.
Audubon Park Sugar Experiment S%tatior.)
In Bulletin No. II, page 81, the origin of
our red or purple ribbon cane is given. Quot
ing from Mr.. j. b. Avequin, it is pronounced a
native of Java and was introduced from Bata-
via to the West India Islands about the mid
die of the last century Mr.. King, Of Savan-
nah, GA, brought q schooner load of it from
the island Of st. Eustatius and planted it on
st. SiIuon's Island, near the mouth of the
Savannah River, in 1914. Mr.. John J..
Coiron brought a dozen or moro stalks from
Savannah III 1877 and planted them in his
garden at Terre aux B9ufs. He followed
this small importation with Il Sloop load in
1926 and planted them Gu the st. Sophie
plantation below New Orleans. This Is the
origin of our striped cane.
The violet, or purple, is said to be a de-
generate variety of the striped. This asSer-
ton, strongly combated by some. rests ppon
fairly good testimony. Old planters assert
that a plantation started with striped canes
will ultimately contain only purple. IN the
northern confines Of the cane sugar district
only purple canes are found. Fields planted
only with striped canes will show i'll a few
wears and sometimes the first year both purple
and white canes, evidencing a lack of per-
manency in this striped cane-a property COM
mon to all striped varieties. The station has
studied this transformation with intense inter
est and has found occasionally white stalks
with the purple stripe SO family delineated as
to escape casual observation, and simultaneous

It is related that a man went into a drug
store one day and exclaimed to the proprietor:
'Look here, man! You gave me morphine
this morning instead of quinine!' The Gus
toner was greatly excited, but the druggist
retained his elf-possession. Is that SOP"
he asked. "Why, then you W me twenty

Everybody stared, but the lady of the house

''What is the matter?' demanded his
mistress.

CHURCH Money.

1t is said that the people of New Zealand
look down upon copper coins and will never
use them if they can help it. An English
clergyman who had one dayeaken the place
of another preacher in Auckland says sohat in
the collection of something over light pounds
there were two hundred and fifty-six three
penny pieces and only four copperS.
1t is SO well understood that these smaller
silver coins will be usedin church collections,
that the %threepenny pieces have received q
name.
One day a young lady wanted some small
change from q Chinaman, who was the
family grocer, and he drew out q handful Of
coppers.

ginated four new canes, to which the names
'Soniat," Bird "Nicholls' and "Garig''
were given. See Bulletin No. II, page 379,
for detailed statement. These canes have
been selected carefully now for four years
and yet the striped varieties show no Perma-
nency of type.
A few years since the Mexican Striped was
imported from Mexico, the Batavian Striped
from Java and the Red Ribbon from Jamaica.
They were found after cultivation to be
identical with our home "striped." The
cultivation of the Batavian and Red Ribbon
has, however, been continued with every
effort to keep them separate and pure. They
are fine canes, giving large stalks, and are
very attractive to the eye, but transforma-
tions similar to those described above are
already noticeable, and purple stalks are
occasionally found sometimes in the middle

family portrayed, and both mixed with the
pure striped canes, with every proportion Of
the two colors. This evolution Of the strip
ed cane gives two offsprings, the one white
with a much more delicate nature, the
other purple, far more hardy.
Indeed, in the differentiation to suit its
environments the striped cane seems to have
adopted the purple color as one %"fttest to
survive" The word color is used because.
as will presently be shown, its superiority in
sucrose content, tonnage. ETC., can hard y

The purple color seems to bestow upon it a

sATOLLI AND CORRIGAN,
Comment Regarding Their Recon

Comment Regarding Their Recent
Meeting I'm This City.
NEW YORK. October 3O.-The mystery
which surrounded the recent annual meet
ing of Catholic archbishops at Philadelphia,
and the subsequent gathering here, is still
unbroken. But from events subsequent to
the meeting the conclusion is drawn that
an important step was taken toward the
unifcation of the principal Catholic ecclesi-
astes in the United States, in the termina-
ton of the antagonisms which have arisen
over Mgr.Satollis presence In this coun-
try. and in more complete support and 10y
atty to the papal delegate In the future
Whether the archbishops took formal action
on the subject Is not known. Immediately
following the meeting Archbishop Corrigan
of New York paid visit to Mgr Satolli at
the latter's residence In Washington. The
two ecclesiastics were together three hours,
and the result is believed to have been of a
gratifying character to the ALLOCATE and
archbishop.
Only one cause of irritation remains, and
that results from an article written by
Bishop Spalding In the North American Re
view. in which he attributed the A. p. A.
movement to the presence Of Mgr Satolli In
this country 1t Is believed that the bishop
has made amends and explanations for the
,hisapprehension created by his article. and
that this matter has been smoothed over in
part at least.
Mgr. Satolli was seen today at his residence
concerning the above dispatch. He said tine
archbishop had called on him about two
weeks ago. soon after the meeting of the
archbfshops. and conference lasting sew
eral hours had been held. The ablegate
would not discuss the nature of the confer
ence or the reported unity in recognizing
the delegates authority.

Beef From Germany.
BERLIN, October 30.-The prohibition
against the landing of American cattle and
American dressed meat, announced by q
decree of the Hamburg senate en- Saturday
last, as exclusively cabled to the Associated
Press. was extended today to every port of
Germany.
Interviews which the correspondent of the
Associated Press has had with the officials
of the interior department of the Prussian
husbandry department and the German for
eign Office would seem to show that the
prohibition is of a preventive nature and
the action of Individual German states.
The foreign office officials, for instance,
state that the prohibition is no affair Of
theirs, as the measures adopted are purely
administrative and sanitary, and that they
strictly belong to each German state. The
empire, as such, these officials add, hae
not taken any steps to prohibit the landing
of American cattle or American meat
The officials of the interior department
say that the importation of cattle from
America suffering from Texas fever has
been clearly proved, and that the measures
taken are purely of preventive nature
such as each German state Is entitled TO
exercise through its police authority within
its own territory.

sIxTEEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL
Taken to q Disrcputable House by q
Married Woman.

This morning. about 80 o'clock. the IN
mates of house No. 30s 18th street. in the
DIVISION were aroused by the appearance
OF Police Sergeant Shilling and Officers VIII
Jams and Boyce and compelled to leave their
comfortable quarters and go to the police
station. Among those found in the house
was May Earl the woman who went to New
York with one Of the men accused of the
theft Of postage stamps from the bureau OF
engraving and printing.
At the door of the house the officers found
young woman from South Washington
who was about to leave the gay and festive
scenes Of the fashionable resort and return
to her modest home and perhaps unsuspect
ing husband She was under the influence o.
liquor when the officers saw her. and theii
appearance angered her to the extent that
she used language calculated to cause
trouble. 1t did cause her trouble, for the
ofncers arrested her and charged her wifi
being common vagrant. The young woman
who Is fairly good looking, was dressed ir
an evening gown, which is probably fur
nished persons of her class who merely gr
to such places for the evening.
There had been no special disorder In the
house, nor had there been any thefts, but
the officers had another and better reason
for making the raid. They had been APP
peaied to by a reputable citizen, whose
daughter, child of only sixteen years, hae
been taken there by the woman arrested,
who had given her name as Julia Ridgeway
Ii developed In the evidence In the Police
Court this morning that for several years
Julia had been an inmate of houses of ILL.,
fame, but desire to change her course OF
life resulted In her marriage and removal to
South Washington. There she soon became
acquainted with her neighbors, and there
was nothing about her appearance to indi-
cate that she was anything but the proper
kind of person with whom to associate.
Thus she had gained the confidence of at
least one family and upon the statement
that her husband had gone down the river
the sxteen-year-old girl mentioned was
permitted to go home with her for the
night, in order that she might have CON-
pany. Instead of remaining at her own
home she went to this disreputable house
and tCok the child with her.
There was no defense of her conduc'
made when the case was heard by Judge
Kimball, and he denounced her action a.
most serious one and said IL was the
worst charge that could be brought agains'
her.
The officer explained that Julia's husband
had made complaint to him last night
He had called at the house of i'll fame
which has been permitted to run in open
violation of law, and had been refused q
chance to see the woman supposed to be
his better half.
Judge Kimball put the condemnation Of
the court on such proceedings by requiring
the young woman to give $500 real estate
security or go down for six months.
Cor. Porter, the alleged prbprietess of
the place, demanded jury trial, and the
case went over for few days
