COFFEE IN THIS STATE.
Colonel Crocker Has Brought Plants
From Central America for Trial.

Colonel Charles f. Crocker is going to
start coffee plantation down in the
San Joaquin Valley, and if his expert
ment proves successful the fertile
ranches thereabout will have a boom
that will be without precedent. The
Pacific Mail Company's steamer San
Juan, which arrived last Sunday,
brought from Central America LOO
yearling plants with which Colonel
Croker will commence his interesting
venture. The plants were carefully Sc
lected by Samuel Howe, Colonel Crock
er's agent, who died on board the
steamer December LIST, but the object
for which he made the trip has been
accomplished, and the collection of
plants, which perhaps cost him his life,
was landed here safely yesterday and
will be taken in charge by Colonel
Crocker's gardener.
The coffee plants which Colonel
Croker has secured for his experiment
al ranch are of the hardy Arabian va
riety, which produce the bulk of the
coffee of commerce. They are mere
slips now, and are completely boxed in
such a manner that they do not take up
much space and might be overlooked
by the casual observer. But every
precaution has been taken to protect
their roots from the chill atmosphere,
and they are as good and fresh appar-
emily as when taken from their native
soil. Just where in the valley Colonel
Crocker proposes to locate his planta-
ton it is not now known. The Colonel
is out of town and left no word. The
plants will be set out this fall most like
ly, but six years must elapse before
they will be old enough to bear berries,
and not until that time will the success
or failure of the experiment be known.
Scientists who have studied the soil
and climate of the San Joaquin Valley
are somewhat doubtful as to whether
coffee plants will thrive there. The
coffee plant not only requires fertile
soil and plenty of sunlight, but GER
tain amount of moisture, and that is
where the rub comes in California. The
soil is rich enough and the heat sutfi-
cient, but there is a scarcity of the
other requisite. But time will tell, and,
as Colonel Crocker is abundantly able,
from a financial point of view, to sus-
tain a failure, his experiment will be
watched with a great deal of interest

Miss Louise Kissam, daughter of the
well-known banker, and niece Of Mrs.
Vanderbilt is an expert at both billiards
and pool. Most of her pool playing was
done at Arverne, where she spent one
summer aud she was there regarded as
the best player among the girls at the

father and brother preferred the more
scientific game of billiards, it is seldom
used for any other purpose.
Miss Georgia Finlay was close second
to Miss Kissam at Arverne. Pool is Miss
Finlay's speciality, and there were very
few of the young men who could equal
her.
Miss Beard was also at the Arverne

Beard did not play quite as strong a
