Mari Hanna. Pineapnle Patch.

Marx Hanna is growing pineapples
This statement will come m somewhat
Of a shock to those who think Of Mark
Hanna only rs n political engineer.
Although he Is city man, he loves
the little pineapple patch that grows
green aud spiney out OF the white sand
Of Dade county, Fla. Twice within
the last eighteen months has he turned
his footsteps from the north to the
south. Several times has. Mark Hanna
slept IN the palmetto-thaiched shack
that stands shaded by whispering pine
trees ON the eastern edge of Mark
Hanna's pineapple patch.
1t was about two years ago that the
pineapple fever broke out IN Florida
and became SO virulently epidemic
that pine aud fiatwoods lands, which
before had not been worth Sl.25 an
acre, were suddenly held at $50 an
acre uncleared, and to clear an acre
costs about $40. Mr.. Hanna was
boarding at Palm Beach, where the
hotels charge So day during three
months of the year, and 81 a week
during the other nine. Well, Mr..
Hanna was boarding there during the
S6-a-day season. The germ OF the
pineapple contagion entered his blood,
and he bought an acre of pine land
from Representative Linton of Michi-
gan, who owns a big tract of muck
and pine lands along the Bicayne Bay
canal. Washington Star.

The AerOlite of JimeHeZ.

AT the town OF JImenez, pronounced
not 'Jimminy," but "Hemaynez, in
central northern Mexico, there is an
immense aerolite. 1t lies SO near to
the railroad track that passengers can
walk to 1t in a few moments, as many
do. 1t is estimated that this mysteri-
GUS visitor weighs about 20 tons. On
the outside the aerolita looks like cop

like steel and appears to be pure

Strange ways OF Praying

There nre many ways of praying,
some OF which are quite ludicrous.
Certain African tribes scribble their
prayers on paper or bits OF bark and
then chew the written prayers. The
resulting pulp is elected from the
mouth on to the idol, and if it adheres
the result of the prayer can hardly be
questioned. The Japanese enter their
temples, ring bell to announce to
the gods that they are needed, prattle
their prayers as simply as children
and then clap their hands to announce
that the gods can go about their bust
ness. The Chinese write their prayers
on bits of paper and then scatter them
broadcast. When they wish to be
particularly civil they use silt and
silver paper, New York World.

The Chicago of Mexico.

No city in Mexico is improving
more rapidly than San Luis Potosi. 1t
is the fourth city in the republic, and a
very busy and tlourishing place. Its
rapid growth and the display of enter

called "the Chicago of Mexico" One
of the most recent buildings erected
in San Luis PotosI is the tentro de la

can boast of finer theatres than this.

INDUSTRY HUNS.
Good Times Once More Prevalent
in the United States.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17--Bradstreet's says:
The volume of business improves slowly in
nearly all lines. The most active demand is
among jobbers in dry goods, clothing, mlli-
merry, shoes, leather and hardware, and
in leading industrial lines, nearly 200
mills, factories and foundries having
started up this week. one-half of them
in iron, steel machinery, tools car
riages, lumber, glass, woolens and cotton
goods lines. About 1870 other industrial es-
adjustments have increased working hours,
or both, among them 10 iron and steel es-
adjustments, 10 glass works and four fac
tories, making lamps, clocks, wooden goods
and cotton.
A partial record of the number of men
given employment in industrial lines since
Nov. shows an aggregate of more than
80, 900.
