In each tent will be oil lamp. for heating.
When the orange growers are warned of an ap-
preaching cold wave these lamps will be light
ed and the door of the tent closed. and there will
be warmth within, however chill the winds
may be.
One of the Governments devices to give warn
ing of an approaching cold wave is particularly
ingenious. Mails travel slowly in some of the
less thickly populated districts, the engineers
of express trains required to blow their
whistles six times in every three miles. to give
notice of the coming of bad weather.
But, in spite of all these precautions, the pros
poets for a good crop of oranges and no frost
bright. There is also an opening field in the
expectation of Florida cuttings to Cuba and
Porto Rico. The oranges of these islands, while
growing under great advantages of soil and
climate, suffer from lack of cultivation, and
would be much better for a little American sci
ence and enterprise.
New-York tribune., 1900-09-23

cal career been known by the sobriquet Of
Fighting joe it seems only right and proper
that he should be placed at the head of the War
Department Of Great Britain, where a strong
hand is sorely needed for the purpose of insti-
tuting those radical reforms which the public
demand in order to bring up this red tape tied
department to the requirements of modern war
fare. 1t is universally admitted that what Is
needed at the head of the War Department,
above everything else, is a business man who
will decline to be bound by precedent and who
will wave aside all obstacles that may be raised
in the way of his reforms by officials intent only
on maintaining the traditions of the Depart
ment II speaks well for the honesty, well
for the amenity, of public life in England
that Joseph Chamberlain should be summoned
by the voice of the people to take charge of
this important department in spite of the fact
that his brother is at the head of what is the
greatest war material business in the United
Kingdom a business which has colossal con-
tracts with the Government. These contracts
embrace millions upon millions of dollars, yet
no attempt has ever been made by any response
influence has been exercised by Joseph Cham
Joseph Chamberlain is a warm friend of Lord
Wolseley, and it was mainly through the as
sistance Of the present Secretary of State for
the Colonies that Lord WOlseley was able to
bring about reforms save for which the out
break of war in South Africa would have found
England from a military point Of view, in pre-
ciseIy the same position it was when the
Crimean War took place. forty y-seyen years ago.

GENERAL cox QUELLED 4 MUTINY.
from The Chicago Inter-Ocean.

From The Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Cox was a good discipnarian. but ne never
clustered, and was never severe On Oc-
casOn several officers called at his headquar-
terS and stated to him that they would not
promise to march their men up the narrow river
valley. He sent them to their quarters and
said nothing of their impertinence until after
the war. While in camp at Gauley Bridge, his
quartermaster-g general shot a private in the
I'd Kentucky Infantry. The men of the regi-
ment escaped the control of the officers and
made rush to kill the quartermaster, who had
been taken to CoX's headquarters Cox saw the
men coming but instead of ordering the guards
fire them he toward them alone
bareheaded and unarmed. He reached a gap in
a stone wall ahead of the 500 600 furious
armed men and stopped them. He explained
that they might kill him, but they could not
pass.
Strengthening to his full height he said
firmly: Your General. unarmed as you see
orders you to return to your quarters, and he
expects you to remember that you are soldiers
and obey" Much to the surprise of the score
of anxious officers watching the parley, the men
returned to their camp. Cox sent for a company
from another regiment. which guarded the
prisoner to the lower camp. No charge of mu-
tiny ever appeared against that regiment. which
afterward, under Nelson and Palmer, made a
splendid reputation for drill, discipline and hard
fighting.

WHY THEY ARE CAUGHT.
MEANS OF DETECTION THAT GENTEEL
SMUGGLERS LITTLE DREAM OLE.

SMUCiGLERS LITTLE DREAM OF.
For the last few weeks all the ocean liners
sailing from European ports for New. York hare
been crowded, and many people who negii-
gent about securing return passage have been
compelled to change their plans by receiving the
/ information that the ship of their choice
"all full" The majority of the passengers on
| ocean steamers combined shopping with sight
seeing while abroad, and the problem of how
to get the purchases past the Custom House Of
ficials without paying duty on them keeps many
passengers thinking for days on the homeward
trip.
Custom House officers say that many men
and women who would resent any insnuation
as to their honesty look upon smuggling as "al
right and think that declaration under oath
that they have nothing dutiable in their trunks
need not be positively true so long as only the
Government loses in consequence. Despite the
schemes and plans of the dishonest passengers
who bring perjury permeated presents from
| Paris, many seizures have been made this sea
| son, and more goods have been confscated
than in former summers. In many instances
| the detected smuggler blames himself for having
looked guilty. or for having concealed the Iaces
OF diamonds in the wrong place, and then rs
members how Mrs. Smith brought whole wets-
ding outfit through for her daughter or how Mrs
Brown landed a lot of furs Just because she
was smart
In nine cases out of ten the collapse of t:le
smuggling scheme due neither to the guilty
look of the passenger and his failure to pack the
stuff properly, nor to the vigilance of the
toms officers, but to the desire on the part of a
shOpkeeper in Europe to get even"

When an American woman appears on the scene

| the storekeeper must grin and bear it. Blu:
when he finds out that Mrs. American has made
! her purchases at a rival establishment, and they
all have means for gaining that information, NJ
goes further and finds out when the woman will
sail Then he gives the Customs authorities =
| tip Tips of that kind forwarded to Wash
| ingtOn and placed in the hands of special men.
| Lots of gowns. furs, jewery and other goods
| have been stopped at the steamer piers which
would undoubtedly have slipped through but for
| the aid received from these disgruntIed Euro
pean merchants and dreSsmakers. The Govern
ment sometimes receives tips from other sources
also, but the object is usually revenge and the

ORANGES UNDER TENTS IN FLORIDA.

A NEW DEVICE TO PREVENT THE BLIGHT OF

while 1t keeps out frosty winds on the other.
