Pretty Lively Eating.

When one grows weary of the eternal
ices, blancmanges, charlottes and pud-
dings served to us year in and year on t
for dessert, it is pleasant to hear of an
innovation. A Travelled American re.
marked that she once had the felicity
of sitting down to a japanese dinner at
which were served such dainties as
melons. ices, fruits and sea frogs. There
was in addition to these sweets COW
cred dish, into which, at the beginning
of the dinner. bottle of wine had been
poured.
When the sea frogs and other dainties
had been discussed, the cover of this
dish was removed, and number Of
sandhoppers, hilariously intoxicated and
jumping about in the widest manner,
were presented to the gaze of the aston.
ished American guests The lively des.
cert, so the fair traveller says, was
caught by the japanese with little
bamboo sticks and eaten with great

mistake that amateurs make is to apply
this wax too generously. An expert in
this matter says that n pound of wax

the wax is applied and rubbed in with u

In the words of his granddaughter he is

He wears wool undergarments the
year round and lately new supply was
needed. His favorite granddaughter
went downtown and bought some.
Grace said the recipient a day
later, rather deprecatingly, "I think
maybe 1 am fussy, but these under
clothes don't feel good, Can you
change them?''
Grace cheerfully went back with the
garments and hunted for some others,
softer and finer. Her grandfather was
grateful and said nothing. When she
asked him if they were all right he re-
piled hurriedly that they We're excel

Grace stole up to his room the after
noon of the third day and opened the
door softly. There at the window with
the shade pulled high sat grandfather.
Patiently he was bending over one of
the new wool undergarments and with
pair of tweezers he was painstakingly
pulling out the minute whiskers which
make wool clothing an abomination to

New in Orange Raising.

Il am just now hard at work. said
a New Orleans promoter, ION one of
the biggest, brightest and most spec
tacular enterprises of the present day.
1t originates with an extensive orange
grower of the lower coast. He suffered
severely by the freeze of last season.
unlimited resource, and he has thought
up scheme to wrest the spoils of win
ter from the clutch of nature. No, that
isn't quotation from the prospectus;
it's a simple, modest statement of fact.
His proposition is to take a number of
bearing orange trees and transplant
them in cars specially prepared for
their reception, making up special
trains of, say, twenty cars apiece,
which, averaging six trees each, to give
them plenty of room, will make 120
trees to the train. While history does
not record succession of such severe
winters as the last, still, to be abso-
on the safe side, the intention is
to keep the cars moving Floridaward
to the extreme southern point, and by
staying always in the warm zone, posi-
lively insure the life and productive
ness of the plant. Trees thus treated
yield double the usual quantity But
that is not all. AS soon as the crop
has reached maturity the trains will
be run north and the fruit sold direct
from the trees. How is that for a large,
meaty idea? Isn't 1t a loo loo? Our
Yankee friends who have never seen
oranges growing on anything except
Christmas tree will have fits of joy
and fall over each other to pluck the
golden fruit at 80 cents per pluck. 1t
will become fashion, a fad, a rage!
Oranges will enjoy the biggest boom
they ever had since Nell Gwynne ped
died them in the stalls! We will make
coolies, barrels, small hogsheads of
money! We will become rich beyond
the dreams of avarice! We will wrest
the spoils of winter from-no, I believe
I said that before. Anyhow, without
kidding, it's great scheme Well, so

Since I went. away two and a half

The office of which I was the head was

And now, my fellow citizens, come

His Incumbency.

DETROIT, Aug. 2.-Whatever may
have been the feelings of the late Sec
rotary of, War, General Russell A. AL
ger, concerning the recent incidents Of
his official career, all sentiments save
those of genuine happiness were very
evidently banished this afternoon and
evening by the magnificent welcome
rendered him by the people of his own
city State From o'clock, when
the welcoming committee crowded into
his. private car at Toledo, until 8
O'Clock, when the General ceased grasp
ing outstretched hands, the scene was
constant and spontaneous ovation.
Smiles and tears repeatedly struggled
for the mastery over the Secretary's
bronzed countenance, as he gaZed into
the eager faces of the multitudes who
loudly and convincingly insisted that
Ayers all right and no dissenting
voice was heard. Darkness fell dur
ing the speeches from the reviewing
stand in front of the City Hall, giving
opportunity for throwing a searchlight
upon the features of General Alger
drawn in crayon on a canvas, hung on
the City Hall and surrounded by pa
triotic decorations. A great crush at
feature.
The special train which met General
Alger at Toledo consisted of six
coaches. 1t carried 400 members of
the Reception Committee. When the
Pennsylvania train arrived the Cen
erals car was besieged by his friends
General Algers was escorted through
the reception train and greeted by all.
A hoIIt g00 or nd 1 4G0
marchers escorted General Alger from
the Michigan Central station by a cir
cuitous course leading past the Gener-
ais home to the reviewing stand. Mil
itary and veterans of the civil war,
including Fairbanks Post G.. A r., of
which the General is a member, COM
pany of Spanish war veterans and
scores of marchers in secret society
uniforms, filed past. Fairbanks Post
carried two great banners, stretching
halfway across the street which de-
clared there is only one Alger.'
When General Alger appeared upon
the reviewing stand there was a roar
of applause from the dense crowd
which blocked all traffic across the
campus Martius. The ex-Secretary
reviewed the parade, and returned the
salutations of many marchers, espec-
tally those of veteran G. A. r. COM
rades.
Mayor Maybury, after calling the
meeting to order, said: General AL

to voice the heartiness of this welcome

TALLAHASSEE (Fla), Aug. 2.-The
town of Carabelle, on the Gulf OF
Mexico, southwest of this city, is re-

quantities of naval stores.
At Lanark the lighthouses, pavilion
and boats have been destroyed.

The storm was one of the hardest

hours the wind was terrific, and the
rain fell in torrents.
The city of Appalachicola, at the
mouth of the Chattahoochee River is
entirely cut off from communication.
and nothing can be learned from there.
A new trestle over the Ochiockno
River at Mcintyre was blown away.
The wrecking train which went to-

says that every town along the line
is desolated. Hotels, houses, churches,
sawmills, wharves and pavilions were
in many places blown from the posi-

There was just moments hesita-
ton before they kissed, and then
George was in the house meeting them
all. He had surprised them, but he
had long wanted to come, and the
cheap rates afforded him the oppor-
tunity. He talked much of what he
was doing away out in California, men
toned a few absent members of the
family Familiarity, and then hurried
down town to see if he could find his
baggage, which, as he expressed it, had
been mislaid somewhere in the shuttle.
George was not back till evening. He
had not recovered his baggage, but
was assured he would have it the next
day. Uncle Harry gladly cashed a $50
check for him, and showed him to the
best room in the house, after they had
taken a social smoke together Next
