WIKING UP,

Connecticut is discovering that she
has special interest in the suggestion
of free trade with our new possessions.
/ The tobacco growers of the State are
told by the executive committee of the
New England Tobacco Growers assoc-
alton that terrible danger threatens
the cigar leaf tobacco growing interests
of the United States, and especially in
New England, by the proposed free adj
mission of tobacco and cigars from
Puerto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines.
And as the association has vital need of
money with which to maintain a COM
mittee from the New England Tobacco
Growers association at washington to
look after the interests of it's members
an effort is to be made to increase the
membership of the association. Every
tobacco grower in New England and 9TH
ers interested in the industry are invited
to join in payment of one dollar for the
annual dues and it is hoped that there
will be at least five thousand members
by the time the annual meeting of the
association is held in Hartford, Janu-
airy Q.
Between sugar and tobacco there will
be lively times in Washington this win
ter.

! worth Of fruit. It Is estimated that
about 50 trees could be planted to en-
acre, or half as many as are contained
by those acres planted to oranges. This
would yield a gross return of $500 to
the acre. With 10 acres of these trees,
yielding $4,000 per annum, the ordinary
and modest American citizen would
have about all he wanted.
And yet this opportunity seemingly
lies open to any one The deglet noir
Will unquestionably grow luxur!antly on
the banks of the Colorado river in the
lower reaches of California and along
the line of Arizona, and land there can
be had for nothing There are hundreds
of tight, close valleys on desert peculiar
~ adapted to the growing Of the deglet
where land can be had for the taking.
In Palm Valley there are perhaps a
thousand palms growing upon soil that
is within 10 feet of water, which oozes
up in some place and has gained for a
part Of the area the name of Palm
springs 1t is in Inyo county. Cal, and
there is little settlement there where
persons with pulmonary affections find
benefit.
Prof Swingle states that so hot are
some of the sinks in which the deglet
grows that Arabs, accustomed to exist
ing in heated situations are sometimes
overcome. If the professor had in mind
that whole jungle tract which runs for
so miles along the Arizona bank of the
Colorado, and which has a width of
about a mile throughout its entire
length, he could not more perfectly
have described a condition. 1T might
seem harsh to recommend such place
to any one for purpose, but there is
no doubt that here would be the ideal
locality for the raising of the Bskra
date. The wooded growth is very small
and could be easily cut.
Suckers of the date can be had from
the state agricultural experimental
station at Phoenix. To this place Prof
Swingle has sent several consignments
of the trees from Algeria. They have
been planted and are growing success |
fully. Within a year 1t Is expected
cuttings can be furnished in limited
numbers to those who will give assur-
ances that they will be propagated.

his trees to be obtained for the asking, |

The effort to punish some of those
VINO told bear lies about Brooklyn
Rapid Transit hasn't been very sue
cessful so far. The grand jury was dis
charged by Judge Cowing yesterday af-
ternoon, after it had handed in a pre-
sentiment in the Brooklyn Rapid Tran
sit company investigation, in which 1t
found no Indictment. Five members Of
the jury put themselves on record as
opposed to the Investigation Thomas
j. Stead, secretary of the grand jury,
read the presentment, which is as fol-
lows: The grand jury has conducted
an inquiry into certain false rumors
secretly circulated affecting values of
stock and financial condition of certain
corporations. The matter of these re-
ports coming to us at the close of our
term, we have been unable to make
such a complete inquiry into the sub
ject as we believe it's importance war;
rants, and therefore recommend and
request that the court call the atten-
ton of the succeeding grand jury to
the case to the end that the law may be
vindicated and such crimes prevented"
Probably this will end the case, and
the company will save the $685. 900 it Of
fered for the discovery of the bear
liars. Perhaps the next grand jury
will be asked to pay some attention
to bull liars who have been very
plenty and very efficient.

NOT FOR A BIG ERMAN NAVY.

There are some Germans who do not
believe in the new naval policy which
the government favors. Herr Richter,
the Radical leader, is one of them, and
he made some lively and interesting
points in his recent speech in the Reich
stag in criticism of the government s
naval and colonial plans. Germany, he
said, with her limited coast line and in
land frontiers, was in a very different
position from England, the United
States or France, who had plausible rea-
sons for wanting great navy. BY de-
claring how many new ships they in
tended to build the government, he re-
marked, only gave notice to other Pow
ers, who of course, would correspond
ingly increase their own fleets, SO that
when the new naval programme had
been completed German inferiority at
sea would be as great as ever He dealt
very severely with the passage in Count
Won Bulow's speech which compared
the former position of Germans in the
world to that of humble domestic tutors
among naughty cavaliers He denied
that this had ever been correct meas
ure of the estimation in which Germans
were held abroad even before 1870. The

An employees aid fund with sur
plus earning over 100000 year in divi-
bends is unusual That is the condition
of the fund started at the organiza-
tion of the Calumet and Hecla Mining
Company, when the company required
single men to contribute fifty cents a
month and married men one dollar to
a benefit fund Medical attendance and
medicines were furnished out of this
fund, as also $500 to the family of any
employe whose death resulted from ac-
cident In addition to this, fine hos
initial was built. Nevertheless, the
money continued to accumulate and the
surplus was invested in the stock of the
company, until now the fund owns ATS
shares. the income from which is about
enough to pay expenses. The company
relieved the employees from the payment
of assessments in 1897, itself contribut-
ing the money. 1t has continued this
nolicy to date and recently announced
that it would be responsible for the as
easements in 1900.

FASHION MOTT y.


Graduated fringe is lovely TRIM
ming. A knotted heading ie shaped
into broad ended points, then the fringe
follows the edge Of the heading, hanging
long and short, Such fringe Is put to
all sorts of use. 1t IS beautiful on fluffy
material that needs a little weighing,
and is equally happy on heavy stuff
that needs little tightening, So one
sees it on the chiffon of the ball room
and on the velvet Of the carriage gown.
Then it is used on the ends of the silk
scarfs SO much in vogue for the hat Of
the moment. Fringed ends to neck
scarfs are sometimes one deep point, the
fringe in the middle of the end being
quarter of yard long and narrowing
