CUBAN LEADERS MEET.
Possibility of Recognition by President
Cleveland Discussed.

Possibility of Recognition by President
Cleveland Discussed.
New YORK, April s.-An informal
meeting of Cuban leaders was held at
the Hotel America last night. The pos
sibility of Cuban beIligerency being act
ually recognized in the near future by
President Cleveland was discussed at
length. All seemed to be sanguine of
the disposition of congress to pass JOINT
resolution W hich would insure action on
the part of President Cleveland.
"Mr. Cleveland" said Mr.. Portuon-
do, sis the great political conundrum of
the present time. We can only pursue
our unequal struggle on the island and
continue to hope. We have done that
from the beginning and have much in
the shape of the result to encourage US.
''The plan of sending commission of
investigation to the island, sometimes
attributed to Mr.. Cleveland, would prove
an absolute failure for the purpose in
tended. Such a commission, even If
tolerated by Spain, could accomplish
nothing of value, simply because Span
ish officials, when under the eye of a
commission from civilized country,
would naturally be on their best be-
havior. The same might, of course, be
said of our own armies, and yet we have
always welcomed correspondents in the
field and have and do court Inveatiga-
tion.
General Gomez's conduct of the cam
paign has been from the first, and will
continue to be, one of humanity, justice

connected editorially with the American
press, should waste breath occasionally
by speaking of autonomy as condition
which Spain should be induced 10 grant
to Cuba.
''The day for Cuban autonomy" said
Mr.. De Armas, sis irrevocably past.',
Mr.. Joaquin Castillo, in speaking of an
impression which seemed to prevail in
official circles that the rainy season now
setting in, in Cuba, would be season of
inactivity, said:
"General Gomez, it is true, passed the
rainy season of last summer in apparent
inactivity, but the world will soon see
that the coming season will be anything
but period of inactivity"

THE IVORY INDUSTRY.
1t Means Death to Seventy-FIve Thousand
Elephants Annually.

1t Means Death to Seventy-Five Thousand
Elephants Annually.
One-f1fth of the worlds commerce in
ivory comes to Great Britain, and it will
astonish most people, says Answers,
to learn that $4,000 elephants have to be
killed every year to keep our markets
supplied with the precious substance.
Altogether, to keep the whole world in
ivory-apart from fossil tusks-75, ,o0o
elephants are slaughtered annually.
Africa is the great ivory country; and
in the Congo basin, the best hunting
ground, there are supposed to be about
100000 elephants, worth altogether
about 6 100000. The average weight
of ivory obtained from a single ele-
phant is about so pounds. Tusks
weighing about 100 pounds each have
been procured, but this is very rare.
The most expensive tusks are those
used in the manufacture of billiard
balls; they. cost, as a rule, e 11o a 100
weight.
Ivory dust and shavings are used by
confectioners to stiffen the more e1-
pensive kinds of jellies. The scrapings
are often burnt and made into paint
known as ivory black" worth about
6 20 ton.
The hardest of all ivory is that OBJ
tanned from the hippopotamus. twill
emit sparks like piece of flint when
struck with steel, and is principally
used in making artificial teeth.

The attention of the road members is
urgently asked to the west side walk on
Union street, between Third and Fourth.
In all probability some one will have to
pay for broken leg before many dark
nights will have passed. Soon after the
repairs made on that piece of walk was
made few months since, one of the
pieces of decayed board, with which the
width was pieced out, gave way entirely.
Piece No. has been good to walk on
till now. It has followed the example
of No. 1, and both are gone. 1t would
be an act of wisdom, on the part of who
ever will have to pay for damages, if this
discreditable work would receive imme-
diate attention.

TIE GOING NORTH HABIT.

This is just the time of year that the
'going north" fever strikes a certain class
of Floridians. Now if these people had
'money to burn" and were able to indulge
in the luxury of trip to the north, or in
fact anywhere else. we would have not a
word to say against the habit that has cost
the state of Florida millions. Unfortu-
nately however, large percentage of the
people who feel that they must make an an
nual journey to their old homes in the
north are financially unable to crafty their
whim. We have known struggling orange
growers who were just getting their proper
ties in nice condition to mortgage their
groves in order to get the wherewithal for
this trip north.
We do not contend that it is not pleas
ant thing to visit the old home, nor that
such visit might not be beneficial to the
health and well-being Of some, still we
think that in a majority of cases these
visits are not at all necessary. and we know
that they have kept the finances of many
of our people drained down to the lowest
ebb.
Our contention is that Florida is quite
pleasant place to spend the summer. and
if we once break ourselves of the expensive

where and our pocketbooks will be much

More attention should be given by our
people to the matter of home comforts dur
ing the summer months in Florida.
large portion OF our population comprises
northern people who. when they made
their homes in Florida were unfamiliar
with the peculiarities of our climate. and
for this reason many errors were made in
the construction of their houses. and in
numerous details that go to make up
pleasant and comfortable dwelling in a
semi-tropic country. Of course these mis-
takes are now plainly in evidence to these
people. and if they had the home making
business to 60 over again they would make
many Improvements and changes. Those
who are contemplating the making of
homes in Florida, now should confer with
and consult their predecessors in the busl-
ness, and we think they will be given
much good advice.
Those who have already made their
homes should remodel them after the more
correct plan of southern houses, which
their residence here for many years will
doubtless suggest. and we think that if
their money usually expended in the trips
north was used for this purpose the ulti-
mate result would be more satisfactory

For the Florida Agriculturist.
-:..- Peavine Hay.

An article in the last AGRICULTURIsT,
on curing "Peavine Hay", gives me
courage to give the method l have fol.
lowed successfully for two seasons.
cut posts, like fence posts, only they
can be smaller, but eight feet long.
These set in the ground two feet, and
then nail on two feet from the ground,
two strips 1x3 inches feet long, for
arms, one above the other, at right
angles. Then cut the vines at the proper
time for good hay, then fork it on to
to these arms, and around the post,
so as to have it off the ground, and
when two feet of this is put on, nail on.
two more strips like the first, feet
from the ground, and then pile around
the post on these arms, as high as the
post will hold them, topping out the stack
so as to shed water, like hay.cock.
The vines can be put up this way as
soon as cut, without any time for cure
ing, and will keep there till wanted in
tie winter, or even till spring. set
these posts right in the lot where the
vines grew and there was no need of
hauling the vines for they can be gath
cred up with a fork, and the posts set
thick enough in the rows to hold the
crop.
For large crop it takes good many
posts, but usually they can be cut in the
pine woods cheaply, and when the vines
are hauled from them, and put out,
they should be pulled up and stood up
in heaps out of the way, till needed
again, and will last for good many
crops. Peavines will cure out in this
way perfectly, and these punches will
be founder at least mine were-to be
fresh and green colored, except just the
outside of the bunch which will of
course be little weather beaten.
Taking into account the great trouble
of curing peavines for hay, so as to put
them into barn, or stack, especially IN
the rainy season, found this method
much the cheapest and the hay much
better than any other way. The air Cir
culates we'll through the little stack, and
the leaves are all saved. If there should
be crab grass amongst them when cut,
that will cure out as we'll.
In fact put up one year, clear crab
grass, in the same way, and it cured out
and made the very best of hay. *~*
