A great many well-known men and women have been fond of different scents, as is historically known. tut it is hard to say how far their characters fit in with this new idea. For instance, Nero loved the scent of roses, whether distilled or from the freshly cut flow CTS; Louis KY. delighted in the per fume of orange flowers; while Rich elieu liked different scent in each Of the rooms; the Empress Josephine soaked her things in musk; and Ma poleon is said to have emptied whole bottle of eau-de-Gologne over his clothes when he was dressed; Victor Hugo rejoieed in wild flowers; Alex nnder Dumas loved the Towering myr- tie, and Charles Dickens adored white jasmine.

FtME COFFEE CROP.
Peculiar Way in Which the Natives
 Prepare the Bean.


 Prepare the Bean.
 Coffee is exported from Puerto Rico in larger quantities than is any other native product, and while but little of it finds it's way into the American mar ket under the brand Puerto Rican, an immense quantity, according to Gen. Roy Stone, is sold here as genuine Mocha and Java. The average Puerto Rican countryman, even though his children have neither shoes for their feet, nor clothing for their backs, owns his private coffee patch, from which by occasional piekings, he secures enough of the little round berries to keep the family supplied. The exporting, how ever, is done by large growers--men who have plantations which cover hun dreds of acres, mostly upon the we'll drained mountain sides. The plants, ar trees" as they are sometimes call ed, are grown at intervals of from six 10 eight feet, and after reaching a night of about five feet are trimmed off that no strength may be wasted in surplus foliage. The flowers, which are pure white in color have rich fra grance. Each berry contains two seeds, or beans, and as these are gathered before fully ripened, they are dried in the sun. It is common sight to see coffee drying on burlaps, or mats, iD the city streets. The average Puerto Riean has little or no use for coffee mill. He bakes his coffee until it is black, and then grinds it to a powder in a huge mortar When ready for use it closely resembles gunpowder, the beverage made from it looking very much like ink. Some of the natives since the close of the Spanish regime, have learned to prepare cup of coffee on the American plan, but these belong to a very small minority of the popula- tion.-Leslie's Weekly.

FAvORS THE SLOT MACHINES
Justice AIStndt Holds that Mechnn-
isms Played for Beer Checks
Are Not Gambling Devices.

Richard Berlin and T. H. Healy were tried
in Justice Altstadt's court Saturday on a
charge OF running a gambling device in con-
nection with their saloon in South Omaha.
The device is known as a trade slot machine,
in which playing cards are displayed upon
FIVE revolving discs. After a hearing which
lasted the greater part of the afternoon the
defendants were discharged.
As his reason for dlscharging them Judge
Altstadt set forth the following:
The state has not shown in any way by
law or witnesses that any gambling went on
in the defendants places of business. l
hold that this machine where you play for
checks for beer or cigars is not a gambling
device. Therefore l shall discharge the de-
PENDANTS. No proof is established that the
defendants are the proprietors or owners of
the machines"
A few minutes after the handing down OF
this opinion the cases OF George Guthord,
Fred Nelson and Nels Swanson, against
whom similar charges were pending in JUS
tice Crawford's court, were transferred to
the Altstadt tribunal on a change OF venue.
There were seventeen of these cases origin
ally, all from South Omaha. The remaining
twelve are still on Justice Crawford's docket.

New system of Arc Lighting Throws
the Ground Circuits Seriously
Out of .salancc.

The new system of arc lighting now being
installed under the direction OF City Elec-
trician Schurig is causing considerable an
nOyance to the officials of the Nebraska
Telephone company, which is working night
and day to restore the balance of it's ground
circuits. The ground circuit telephones, es-
pecially in the residence districts, are in a
serious condition, giving forth a humming
sound that often completely browns the
human voice. The metallic circuits are not
affected.
The new Hartford system of arc lights
carries a much higher voltage than that
formerly used, " said General Manager Lane
OF the telephone company; the old circuits
We're of about 900 volts, whereas the Hart
ford lamp requires about $500. As a conse-
netic field interferes with the action of tho
outlying telephones. Those in the down,
town district, fortunately, are not inter
fered with to any extent.
1T Is the intention OF the company to sub
stitute the metallic circuit for the ground
circuit as rapidly as possible. and there are
now more than 600 of the new phones in
place out of a total OF $3.50. We have
a large number of solicitors in the city in
ducing patrons TO change to the new plan,
which is cheaper, both for them and for our
selves. Many of course, object to having
three other phones on The same circuit
There is no doubt that the good points more
than make up for this, however. the price
being lower and the long distance receivers
much more satisfactory

FAREWELL TO W. 8. WALLWORK
Goes to Kansas City to Become the
Buyer for Cudahy's New
Packing House.

After twenty years with the Omaha Pack
ing company and its predecessor, the Anglo
American Provision company, w. B. Wall
work has resigned his position to become
buyer for the Cudahy Packing company at
the new Kansas City house. His friends
and associates with the Omaha Packing
company took advantage Of the occasion to
tender him a farewell banquet at the Hen
shaw last evening and at the same time
present him with a ~estimonia of their
esteem in the form OF a heavy gold watch
charm set with diamonds. Ii was a jolly
party of men, who, as heads and managers
of the various departments of the packing
industry, have been largely responsible for
the marvellous growth OF that business at
South Omaha. Among the number seated
at the table were: C. X. Urquhart, w. B.
Wallwork, P. T. McGrath, NJ. R. Murphy,
John Wallwork, N. c.. Taliaferro, Van
1aliaferro, Martin Cullerton, Colonel C. c.
Abbel, NJ. Sweeney. Louis Clarke. S. c.
Spencer, f. B. Towle, G. Towle, Sam Mort,
ID. f. Tracy and Harry Hunton. Mr.. Urqu-
hart acted in the capacity OF POSTMASTER
and wit and humor were not wanting to
make the occasion a most enjoyable one for
all participants.
Mr.. Wallwork came to Omaha as buyer
for the Anglo-American Provision company
in November, 1886, when South Omaha was
little more than a corniield. At that time
the Hammond Packing company had a house
there and Sir Thomas Upton, better known
as England's foremost yachtsman, was just
opening a small house. The Anglo-Ameri-
can company had the big house Of that day
and when it commenced operations South
Omaha began that marvellous growth which
has never slackened and which the coming
OF Cudahy, swift and Armour helped To
maintain.
In February. 1888, the Anglo-American
Provision company became the Omaha
Packing company. The old Upton house is
now a part Of the Cudahy plant. In ad-
ditIon 10 their South Omaha plant the
Cudahys have a house n Sioux City and
about May ! will open q model packing house
at Kansas City, for which Mr.. Wallwork
