PLEA FOR FRUIT.

One form OF agricultural industry
for which the Delta Is particularly
we'll fitted, yet which has been sys-
tematically neglected, Is the growing
of fruit. The successive overfiows Of
the past have been undoubtedly the
cause Of this neglect, but now, with a
perfectly safe levee system, and prac.
tical immunity from floods, there is
no reason why the general recognition
Of various branches of hnsbandry
should not include fruit growing.
Fruit has never been shipped from
the Delta. Its value as an article of
sale has never been realized. With
our railroad facilities II could easily
be put on the Memphis, st. Louis and
Chicago markets even before the crops
from other portions of the South are
sent, 10 say nothing Of the home
market. II has been demonstrated,
by experience In private orchards,
that our peaches, aprlcots, strswber-
ries, rsspberries, figs, and certain va
rieties Of apples are OF excellent quail
ty, easily raised, and except from the
danger TO peaches Of Too early bloom
ing, very sure crops. Pears are sub
ject (as they are everywhere) to blight'
but the fruit Is of the finest, aud
grapes, apples, aud number of other
fruits have never been given fair
trial.
Central Mississippi has grown rich
on her orchards and market gardens,
and the Delta, with infinitely greater
advantages, and with the Memphis
marke. at her doors, has been idle In
this important branch of industry
with freedom from overflow assured,
the planters Of the Delta should make
ia broad level one great garden and
rransry for the Northern cities. The
present year, with It's abundant yield
from our scauiy orchards, will per-
hans omen tbe eyes OF property owners

From the above 1t will be seen that
the United States is the only one Of
the great commercial nations whose
per capita money In circulation is
greater than i,s per capita national
debt. The French people owe nearly
three times as much as they have got,
while the people Of the United States
have got nearly twice as much as they
owe. Considering that the other coun.
tries, with the exception OF Mexico
are all fully developed, 1t must be seen
that tho United States, with Its enor.
nous undeveloped resources, Is the
richest country In the world. As for
tho Asiatic countries, they have little
or no no credit In the markets of the
world, aud, as q consequence, they arc
not able to make large national debts,
and call for no consideration. They
are only mentioned by way Of con.

The Kangaroo at Bay.

When pursued, the kangaroo, if pos
sible, directs his flight toward the river
If he reaches it, he enters, and, thanks
to his great height, is able to go on foot
to depth where the dogs are obliged to
swim. There he plants himself on his
two hind legs and his tail, and, up to
his shoulders in the water, he awaits
the attack of the dogs. With his fore
paws he seizes by the head the first dog
that approaches him, and as he is more
solidly balanced than his assailants he
holds the dogs nose under water as long
az he can. Unless second dog speedily
comes to the rescue the first one Is sure
to be drowned. If companion arrives

Craze For Old Masters.

EACH GIRL WORE COURT PLASTER.

And So the Youth Couldn't Tell Which
Came Into His Room.
The young man who thinks he is 60

which girl of ordinary sharpness is in
volved is sure to find his mistake. 1t
happened some time ago in certain
college that the dormitories of both the
young lady and gentlemen students
opened into the same hall.
One evening near midnight one of the
girls, who had slipped out of her room
to enjoy q secret chat with one of the
other girls, was hurrying to her room,
and in the dark mistook the room, en-
tering the room Of one Of the boys by
mistake. He was standing by the gas
jet, having just turned out the light,
and when she had found the match which
she carried in her pocket and started to
light the gas she stumbled against him.
OF course sine screamed and started for
the door, hut he was too quick for her,
and holding her a moment actually bit
her cheek in order that he might iden-
tify the young lady when next they met.
and when she finally reached her room
she called al Indignation meeting of the
other girls and explained what the hor-
rid fellow had presumed to do. Sue
could never face him again and was not
going to chapel in the morning. But
then of course he would know who she
was, and she appealed to the girls to
help her out of the difficulty. They did.
The next morning when the girl stu
dents filed past the boys at devotional
exercises in the chapel one wicked youth
looked over the top of his testament only

on her left cheek. He has never yet dis
