The threatened harmonious bicycle
has come to pass. but, fortunately.it is
at present confined to Germany. The
musical monstrosity is fixed to the
handle-bar, and by an ingenious ar
rangement is worked by the front
wheel. 1t viii play for an. hour at a
speed of ten miles an, hour, and if the
rider has not been driven mad by that
time he has only to touch spring and
the machine starts off again as gayly
as ever. If it should find a home in this
country, which the fates forfend, we
shall expect nonmusical cyclists to agi'

VERY MUCH MIXED SOCIETY.

Gentlemanly Burglar Welcome
Visitor in Englis,, Society.
There has been some complaint in
aristocratic circles in England that il.
great country houses there is now
found much mixed society.
This has, however, always been the
case. A well-known actor passed three
days at an historical mansion without
knowing either hest or hostess; he
knew that the marquis and his wife did
Lot speak to one another, and that each
would think he was the guest Of the
other
Al records or the kind have been
surpassed by what has recently taken
place in France. A fascinating person
has been recently making round OF
visits at certain chateaux. He was
well known in society,"" which means
that be was gladly received in it, though
nobody knew anything aoout him.
He lived, when not in town among
his friends, in a very luxurious fash
ion. But all that he seems to have pos
, sessed Of his own was q set of scientific
instruments of burglary. In his pos
session was also fcund portfolio with

NUTS FOR THE HOLIDAYS.
The Demand Prcnaises to Be Greater
Than Ever This Year.


Than Ever This Year.
'The demand for nuts promises to be
greater this year than ever before,
said wholesale dealer in such prod
uce in New York to writer for the
Star. ''Sales are at present very large,
and heavy shipments Of from 10000 to
$4,000 bags or cases of nuts from all
parts of the world are arriving in this
city nearly every day. Nowadays nuts
constitute just as prominent part in
the Christmas festivities in America as
they do in Scotland On Halloween. The
most important item in the nut busi-
ness is the walnut, and many claim they
are the sweetest nut grown. Formerly
these nuts came almost entirely from
Bordeaux, but the French nut is now
apt to be a. very poor article. When
opened the kernel is likely to be found
shrunken in the shell and the meat is
dry and of an inferior quality. The
finest walnuts come from Naples. They
are the cleanest, and the kernels are
full. fresh and of a fine flavor. New
York imports from $4,000 to $4,000 bags
of French nuts and from 10000 to 12.-
COO cases of the italian product an
nually.
''The California walnuts, particularly
those from the Los Nietas district. rank
next. They are reliable and have son,e
Of the favor of those imported from
Naples. They are brought to New York
N sacks by the, car load and are sold to
dealers who display them Il stores or
on stands in every city Of the union.
"The Brazil nut, which greatly resem-
bles the Teat Of the cccoanut. but is
very much finer. is ore Ct the. most
popular and best selling nuts in the
market. All of these nuts conne from
Rio Janeiro. The number consumed in
this country yearly is about 10000
sacks.
Years ago the Christmas dessert was
composed chiefly of almonds, raisins.
FIGS and flberts. which the French
called the farm beggars,' because TO
adult would touch them.
"To young Americans, however.
almon ard raisins are dear as ever
and probably to young French people
also.
"The great rival of California is Spain.
and the almonds Of Tarraeora are i'm
'Dorted to New York in vast quantities.
The common stelied almonds come di-
rect from Italy and through London
from the valley of the Jordan. TIE
exporters in Palestine. however. have
not acquired the art which the Califor-
mans have picked up from the Snan-
iards of making their boxes beautiful
with gaudily-colored Autographs. and
their boxes are merely plain. substan-
tial notwithstanding more.
"The hazel nuts. of which every boy
and girl is so fcnd. are grown large
7y throughout the United States. Not
withstanding the fact. most of these
nuts we eat are imported from BARGE
Iona and England. During the past
year 100000 bushels were imported
from the former place.
Nearly all the dried figs that are
put up in small boxes and displayed
everywhere fer sale in the United States
and Great Britain are exported from
Turkey and sanaria. Fresh-ripened
