"The history of the fruit trade in
Philadelphia for the last 25 years
bristles with facts that sustain the
theory of the survival of the fittest,"
said a Wholesale dealer in fruits on
Delaware avenue. mot many years
ago there were several varieties of
grapes, each struggling to become the
savorite of the public. To-day the
trade is chiefly in the Concord and
Delaware varieties. Early in the '60s
yellow bananas could not compete
with the red to-day the latter have
been driven out of the market, though
very many still perfer them. There
used to be a dozen varieties of pears
competing with an almost equal de
mand. Now the Bartlett and Seekel
Eule supreme. Apples and berries, ia
less degree, have undergone the
same process of natural selection, and
there are one or two new varieties o.
early apples that promise to supersede
all the rest ~

Corruption in New York.

The raid against vice commenced by
DR.. Parkhurst, in the city of New
York, year or two ago. has led to the
exposure of a great deal of corruption
through the Luxow Committee, and
as result the condemnation which
first greeted Parkhnrst has been turned
into appreciation. Not only patrol
men and lieutenaEts but captains have
been found gailty and dismissed for
taking bribes from those who wished
to keep disreputable houses and uu-
licensed bars, and the the good work is
still going on. What Tammany is go
ing to do about it remains to be seen.
Between these exposures and the con.
viction Of McKane and his crew of re.
peaters, with Bat Shea and variou:
ballot suffers, they will soon be re-
duced to desperate straits.

The new building, while fully equipped
and ready to 90 on with its work ia good

be by January l.
The old building is entirely robbed of its
chief attractions, such as the library and
gymnasium, both having been put up and
made part OF the equipment of the new
building.
1t is tie rather proud boast of the men,
bers of the San Francisco Y. NJ. c. A.
that they owned the second building
within the association in the United
States. The association was first organ
lZed IN 1858, its first location being over the
Postoffice IN the plaza. the monthly meet
lngS being held in the little German church
on Dupont street, between California and
Pine. Early In 1856 it moved TO the fourth
story OF the armory building. Sacramento
and Montgomery streets. After several
other moves little two-story building was
secured at 522 California street. which was
fitted up at cost of S21OO, and the lower
floor leased for twice the ground rent. so
that the association considered itself very
well off.
Ground was broken for the Suffer. street
building in January. 1868. 1t was dedi-
Gated in November, 1869.
On November %, 1886. a committee was
appointed TO consider the new building
project. The location on Ellis and Mason
streets was secured. Messrs. Balfour.
Guthrie d Co., George W. Gibbs & Co..
and Charles W. Goodall advancing the
money. $4,000. TO hold it. There was a
mortgage of $4,000 on it. which was dis
posed of by the sale of fifty feet of the
original purchase. A building costing
S2O3,OOO.. and equipped at sos, 200, is the
result OF subsequent labors and donations.
The sale Of the old building. it is hoped,
will effect the freedom of the new from
debt, and the San Francisco association
Will then own the finest Y. NJ. G. A. build

His Young Wife,

Mariana's doleful refrain He Cometh

young woman at 10 Lynch street who was
married seven months ago to Matthew
Gennan. a conductor on the Cali fornia-
street railroad. Their religious creeds
were not the same. but that made no dif-
ference until after the wedding, when
they began to quarrel over their divergent
creeds.
The day came last Thursday. Glennan

she returned to the house on Lynch street
be was not there, but there was a note on
the table telling her that he had gone for

In some unaccOuntable manner, the
West Virginia Senators, and especially
Senator CAMDEN, have been picked out
by the press and the public as Obstruc-
tiOllstS and protectionists. The New
York World which has made some
grievous errors in this line has been
forced to admit taat it has been mistak
en- in denounclng Senator CAMDEN as a
prOtectiouiSt and obstructionist. The
stories which have in some manner got
ten into circulation that he has demand
ed OF even asked for the retention OF a
duty On coal are pronounced By those in
a position TO know as untrue. Both
the West Virginia Senators have
held themselves in readiness at all
times to vote for any Democratic tariff
measure which could be agreed upon
and neither Of them has ever uttered
word which could be construed as indi-
eating any effort or willingness on their
part to delay 'he bill. When the Min
nesota Democratic Association classed
Senator CAMDEN among the obstruc-
tionlsts they did him an injustice which
even the New York World, which had
treated him as sush, was compelled 10
admit in the following language:
The World has no reason 70 believe that
Senators Camden, Morgan and Pugh are
TO be counted among thu conservatives"
alias McKinleyites. With these exceptions
it is perfectly true tiat the Senators
named are willing 70 bsray their party If
they dare, and prefer thai Mckinley taxes
should continue.
Both the West Virginia Senators
have the interests of Their country too
much at heart to obstruct, even though
they wished TO. the progress Of the
tariff bill, and may be relied upon to ad-
vance its progress as much as it is pos
sible for them TO do.
