Money In Flowers.

In the south of France there are peo-
pie who derive enormous incomes from
the culture and sale OF flowers. The
district surrounding the Riviera is most
notable for it's marketable blossoms.
Charming Cannes and the delightful
districts of Grasse and Nice are almost
exclusively devoted to flower culture.
Grasse is celebrated for it's orange blos-
SONS and jasmine Nice produces a
plenitude OF lovely lilies and violets,
while Cannes is renowned for it's roses.
incredible though IL may appear. more
than 1000, 900 pounds of flowers are ex-
ported from these districts during each
season. IL is stated that the violet crop
last year from the flower fields of the
Riviera realized the collective amount
OF 10000.

Epitapll For
A Duchess.

Perhaps the most successrul match
maker of her time, and assurcdly ono
of the greatest of her kind the world
has known. was Jane, duchess OF Corr
don, ancestress OF the present Duke OF
Richmond. Gordon and Lenox. In other
ways also was Matchmaking JEANNE"
as she was nicknamcd remarkable for
10 hcr ability as rocruiter England
owes that fine regiment, the Gordon
highlandcrs.
Matchmaking Jcannic" was born AZ
Monrclth, in WigtoHn. The daughter of
country LAIRD named Maxwell of long
descent, but scanty natrimony and
shortly aftc. hcr birth I'm 1850, her
mother ana father separated The for
mcr settling down n rather poor lodg-
ings eff the High street OF Edinburgh.
Edinburgh life WAS somewhat primitive
in those days, and the tradition still OH
tains that JcanAic Maxwell the future
duchess. was wont TO gallon up and
down the High street on the back OF a
fat pig. to TIC great delight OF her
neighbors.
The lucky marriage of her elder sister
TO lawyer OF prominence i'm 1857 gave
Jeannie Maxwell her chance. and she
did not neglect il. Deity she cast ~
matrimonial net. and rich was the pr =
she caught-no less a husband In fact,
than the Duke OF Gordon, one of the
greatest peers in all Scotland and chief
of the great Gordon clan
The duchess had five daughters md
marvellous was the manner In which
she won husbands for them. Her "cam-
paigns, as they were Justly called.
could only be adequately described by
Thackeray or EalZac. But in no case
was she worsted in these campaigns.
All her daughters married well thanks
To their mothers skill and tact. The
eldest Lady Charlotte. became Duchess
of Richmond; the second Susan. mar
ricd the Duke of Manchester: another
was Marchioness of CORVALLIS: anoth-
er captured the greatest prize OF all,
the enormously wealthy Duke Of Bed
ford. Only one of the five married a
commoner and her husband owned a
haronetcy and was at the head OF an
ancient family.
In li9i the duchess set about raising
a regiment TO serve against the French.
She pranced about the highlands dress
cd i'm tartan and feathered bonnet"
and every man who listed had the
privilege Ol claiming KISS from the
great lady's lips i'm lieu Of the CUSTOM
AIRY shilling. Within four weeks this
extraordinary woman had enrolled fully
500 men. and a month later the aew
regiment was formally recognized a.
the "One Hundredth Gordon high
landars." a designation which it still
proudly bears.
The duchess died In London April ~.
1872. and her body was borne, amid
highland honors and followed by vast
crowds To the Gordon burial place at
Kinrara. ON her deathbed she declared
that she wanted no other epitaph than
this: Here lies Jane of Gordon, by
some styled Matchmaking JEANNE. she
raised a regiment for her king and
country. and among her sons and sons
in-law were four dukes, one marquis
and a baronet"

Married at Long Range.

Bride and bridegroom 5000 miles apart
when married was the unique expert
ence of Mr. and Mrs. Manuel Cana
cho. who have just taken up their abode
i'm Montclair. ". j. The husband is
Spanish translator and notary for n
large importing house in New York
city. He and Inez Carreno had known
each other as children in Granada
Spain. and when Manuel came to this
country Is months ago their troth was
plighted. The young man speedily OBJ
tanned a good position and early in the
summer wrote asking his ladylove To
join him i'm the United States.
Mr.. Caweno, father of IneZ, would not
consent until the pair had been we'd
ded, SO a marriage 10y yproxywas arrang-
ed and solemnized July 26, an uncle OF
the bride acting in place of the groom.
Then Mrs. Camacho sailed for New
York. AS the steamer drew up TO the
dock she recognized her husband among
the waiting crowd. Then there was a
fusillade at long range OF kisses that
did not hit and an exchange of glances
that did. BY this means nearly every
body aboard the ship knew that there
was bride aboard
The officers Of the steamer decided to
give her the first chance to get ashore.
The ardent bridegroom was at the foot
of the gangplank waiting for her. AS
she tripped down the incline toward
him he advanced To meet her. She Is
petite and when she few into his arms
she was lifted clear off her feet by the
momentum of her rush and the eager
embrace Of her husband. But she did
not mind IL. Then there was some sure
enough kissing at very close range.
They say they will not be married
again. as the Spanish ana American law
both recognize the validity of that un-
ion by proxy. The announcement that
the ceremony would take place I'm the
manner il did was made i'm the Catholic
churches at Granada and Montclair.
There was a civil as well as n religious
ceremony at Granada. Mr.. Camacho is
20 years old.
After the bride and bridegroom ar.
rived at Montclair they went TO the res
idence of Rev. Father j. NJ. Mendl.
pastor of the Church of the lmmacu-
late Conception. who gave them his
blessing.
