by about five hundred persons, engaged chiefly in the cocoanut trade, while the little island contains about five thou. sand acres and has only a keeper. These islands are now controlled by Nicaragua, through a resident gover- nor, with a dozen bare-footed and rag ged soldiers, but the Colombian govern ment claim them, as well as the Mos quito reserve, Until last year the is- land paid tribute to the Mosquito gov ernment, and for being excessively ac- tive in harboring refugees from Blue fields during the trouble last year, the man who had for many years owned and nominally controlled the small is- land was banished, and Is now in the English colony of Jamaica, seeking to have the British government take up his case. Upon gaining possession the Nicaraguan government leased the small island to a firm of American citi- zens, Orr & Lauberheimer, of Mobile, for a period of fifteen years, with terms of renewal at a nominal figure. This firm has line of Norwegian ships in the banana trade. The west side of the  island contains a commodious harbor for safe anchorage, and 1t was here that this time last summer the United States warship Marblehead and Her Majestv's ship Mohawk anchored for some week. and established a temporary coaling station. An effort Is now being made to induce the American congress to es- tablish permanent coaling station at this point on account of it's proximity to the Atlantic end of the canal, and the fact that they have none in the Ca ri'bbean Sea- Our large iron ship an- chored close to the land in water of transparent brilliancy, with a white sand bottom. The island is most beau- tiful, with it's fine beach and luxuriant tropical vegetation. In its center, with a pleasant elevation, a savannah fur- nishes feed for droves of wild hogs and goats. A cocoanut grove extends around the island All the luscious tropical fruits are indigenous, the woods are full of the melody of birds. The noise of the macaw and other vari- cites of parrots Is an evidence of their existence, while the famed orchids are lavishly abundant.

4 FRAGRANT FESTIVAL.
The Annual Battle of the Flowers at Sam

tn Barbara, California.
 rFrom the Overland Monthly.l
 I had been told in detail what to ex- pect, yet was taken wholly by sur prise. The enthusiasm of the place got possession of me long before 1t was time to begin the "Bataille des Fleurs," and emptied my bushels of flowers on
 the heads of the passing carriages, horsemen, bicycles and floats. Within half an hour from the time when the grand marshal, In coat of golden
 buttercups, hat of "baby-eyes'' and
 trousers of violets, rode gayly by men land horses were knee-deep in roses that
 in the east would have been worth a
 kings ransom. The air was full of fly ing papa gontiers, jacquiminot and
 great American beauties as Ia carriage
 passed that was lost beneath its great dEchesse roses. Not a bit of leather or wood was left uncovered, only the sweet face and brilliant dark of it's occupant refused the pink livery of the "duch-
 esse." The driver, standing erect, was a handsome Mexican, dressed like a lady in pink silk. His charming Span |ish costume and hat were decorated with pearls. He drove four coal black stallions, whose harness and reins were covered with pink silk. Two outriders in the holiday attire of the Mexican va quero guided with silk ribbons the plunging horses, while two more fol- lowed close behind. Over a thousand dollars had been spent on the decora- tiens and costume of this equipage llalone.
 Two handsome girls followed (they were all handsome, so why repeat?) in victoria trimmed with scarlet carna- tions and geraniums. They were dressed in red, with big green hats. Another was covered with gray moss and wild lupin, another with wild mus
 tard, another with marigolds and a sixth with sweet peas-pampas plumes, bodiaca, La Marque roses, with cos tune and harness to match-and so on Luntil all the flowers and all the pretty girls in Santa Barbara were exhausted. Then there were fioats--a Venetian
 gondola, covered with seventy-five | thousand white roses and eighteen l thousand stems of lupin, each, bearing from fifty to seventy-fv blossoms, and | ten thousand punches of wisterin. Blue flowers were the canal on which the boat foated. Two gondoliers piled | their oars, while sweet strains from the guitar and the mandolin in the hands of the gay party within the boat greet ed trlbunes and on-lookers Another bore the Queen of Flowers on a dowery i throne and protected by four swans

 Summers fancy for showy black hats promises to be carried along till late into the autumn, and the picturesque ness of the newest headgear of this sort is quite up to the earlier standards.

4 CHANGE.

Six months have made an astonishing and a pleasing change in some parts of the West. Nebraska, for instance. Last winter many of the people of that State were starving. Their crops had failed and they were obliged to appeal to the East for help They were help ed. Now they are in a position to help others. The other day at Loup City, Nebraska, there was an interest ing event. The managers of one of the railroads travereing that State con- cluded that now was a good time to get people to go there and buy the thou sands of farms that their original own CTS have abandoned. They therefore got together a large party of real estate dealers, and carried them to many parts of the State After travelling over HOO miles of Nebraska territory, they stop ped on the third day at Loup City, and there enjoyed a feast composed en- tirely of Nebraska products. This was spread in the very room which only last winter was used by the committee that distributed the supplies sent from East and South, on which all the people of the immediate territory subsisted dur ing the winter and early spring months. The hosts of the occasion warmly ex- pressed their gratitude for the splen- did lffberality that had saved them from perishing and enabled them to make this seasons crop, and pointing to the field products with which the room was decorated, they assured their guests that Nebraska could feed the world for the next twelve months, and the land agents knew this was no idle boast
 During their two days on the cars they had seen only evidences of abundance luxuriant corn fields, stacks of hay, wheat and oats, pastures dotted with herds, orchards bending with their bur den of fruit. It has indeed been a fat year for Nebraska. The estimates are
 that its grain crop will not be less than 225,0OO,O0O bushels, of which 15,OOO,O ,OOC will be of wheat, 3O,OOOOOO of oats, and 1S0, 100000 of corn. In much the same abundance are the lesser crops of alfal-
