Tho Eject Of Hills

A teacher Of the Delsarte method saws
that she has had her attention particu-
larry attracted by the bad carriage Of
women in all the towns that border on
the Hudson river. They are more in
clined to stoop, she thinks, than those
of any other part Of the east which she
has visited. She esne2ades that this
must be the result of the hills which
border the Hudson, and on which most
OF its towns are built. So much hill
climbing has led to prevailing round
shouldered condition. - Philadelphis

A Wary Old Stager, Hard to Catch, Ii the
Veteran Buck.
He is wary old stager, your veteran
solitaire, and even more difficult to dis
cover than he is to stalk. In the day
time he lies perdu in the shadow of
some overhanging rock, only emerging
in the early morning and evening to
feed. Like his human congener, the
elderly buck dimes late-at his club, I
was about to say, but at any rate in
some sequestered nook where the ladies
cannot bother him. Fortunately, too,
he has rooted and very proper aversion
to being disturbed at his meals, and if
You can only catch him at dinner time
he is SO preoccupied that, in my opin-
ion, he is then easier to approach than
are his lady friends.
As my favorite hunter, Jean Baptiste
Perruquet, justly observes-and PERU
Quet is no misogynist, but rather fer
vent admirer of the gentler sex-"C'est
toujours les femmes Qui sont les plus
mechantes! You old doe is always so
horribly suspicious. She cannot even
eat her dinner in peace, but between
the nibbles she must needs look around
and sniff the air to see if anybody is
coming. If pebble trickles down the
mountain side she pricks her ears,
cocks her head sideways and seems to
mutter to herself, Dear me, wonder
what that noise can be-" The most an.
noying creatures that I know are those
outlying doe sentinels of the herd, who
upset the best laid plans and convert
fair prospects Of successful stalks into
miserable failures.
Many a time, as you are stealthily
creeping along some narrow ledge, fond

congress Of Mexico h session.

The congress of Mexico assembled at the capital Monday.
 Among other matters in his open ing address President Dlaz stated the following;
 "The executive has for some time been endeayoring to obtain an agree ment for an extradItion treaty with the United States. The difficulties in the old agreement have attracted attention of both countries and the Mexican government has suggested througi the American legation here the deslrability of amending the old treaty"
 towing to the prevalence of yellow fever in San Salvador and Guatemala, it has become necessary to declare all Central American ports infected and to establish quarantine sta tions at convenient points along the Guatemalan frontier. Orders have been issued here to exercise strict sup eryision over all vessels arriving from said points and hospitals have been established on the Cordoba frontier, Tampico and Mazatlan for rigid isola- tion of sporadic ases to prevent the spread of the disease"
 "In regard to the finance department am happy to say that the economic development that commenced about a year ago is maintained, there being a vigorous improvement in all branches of our national wealth,as well as in the condition of the treasury. Both our exports and imports continue to in- crease at a remarkable rate, and the same can be said of the local trade of the country.
 During the fiscal year of June 30 last, the customs receipts amounted to over s2O,OO0, ,0OO, and those of the stamp office to sl5,5Oo,OO0. The in- crease that has been obtained in the first two months of the current fiscal year in the two sources 0frevenue men, tioned induces the government to be- lieye that the normal income on which the treasury can count will be suffi- ciently ample to cover all require ments of expenditures of the budget for the year, in spite of the reduction of 30 per cent in the postal rates"

FLoURIsHINa Triton.
A Fine Glass of Immigrants Are Max

Triton, Ga. Jan. clifton is receiving
her fun proportion of the good citizens
from the north, east and west.

Sions from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Hi
nois We're unusually large and almost
every one on either excursion bought
lands or Interested themselves in some or
4he various Inducements offered by this
section The January excursion Will reach
here tomorrow. 1t Is accompanied by
Mr. c. C. S. Baldridge. formerly of Pitts
burg Pa, who has done more, probably,
than any other one man to interest Penn
sylvanians in Georgia. telegram from
NIr Baldridge says he has sixty families
sn the party, who are coming to make
Triton their home.
Most of those who bought farms during
hhe fall are clearing lands and planting
fruit trees while those who bought a
year ago are charging their farms as fast
as possible At the present rate it is
only a mater of year or two before
Triton will be the center of a vast vine
yard and orchard.
Besides the dozens OF smaller farms,
containing from fifty to 200 acres each,
there are several large companies that
are interesting themselves here. Motto
able among these is the Ryals Orchard
Company. some miles west of Triton.
r The company is composed of Mr. John
j. Cunningham of Marietta, the father
of fruit culture in Georgia; Maj. G. NJ
sRyals, the well known fruit and vegetable
grower of Savannah, and Mr.. John a.
Sibley of Augusta. This company will
plant loo acres in peaches.
The Minnie Tyson Company will
also plant 500 acres.
But Triton is not going wild on fruits
and neglecting everything else. Its pro-
motors realize that a city cannot be built
on fruits alone, and though they are max
ing no special effort to boom the town, they
are rapidly locating industries that Will
furnish work to many people and are step
ping stones that will in a few years make a
fourishing city.
Among the enterprises started this
month are the wholesale firm of Sullivan,
Love & Buck, who commenced business
on Jan. /; the Triton Cigar Manufacture
ing Company; the Triton branch of the
Columbus barrel factory. and the Triton
marble works. The latter is an incorpo-
rated company with men of brain and
with plenty of money behind it.
