FRUIT RIPE, But
NOT LUSCIOUS.
Explanation as to Why Some
Fruits in Recent Years
ARE DR. AND TAsTELEss.
New York Writer Explains That the De-
mands OF the City Markets Force
Growers to Raise Firm Fruits
That Look Well.

Market buyers everywhere have been
| complaining the past summer or two
of the comparative tastelessness Of
much Of the fruit now sold in the city
markets. The larger the city, the more
marked these complaints have been;
| and even in the smaller towns there has
been the same cry from lovers Of Juicy,
thoroughly ripe fruit. Men have lately
risen to remark that fruits must be
| eaten near where they are grown to
have their excellence properly appre-
eiated.
But the New York Sun in a recent is
sue quotes the fruit growers as saying
that these men have not arrived at the
| real explanation Of the matter.
According to the Sun the fruit
growers point out that the city
patrons demand Of fruiterers not
only fruit that is perfectly sound,
but that also looks well. To
supply the city demand fruit must be
shipped here from considerable dts
| tances. The prime requisite, therefore.
Is for fruit that win stand transporta-
tfon and reach the city market sound
| and in a shape attractive to the eye.
The effort Of growers, therefore, has
been to produce fruit of good keeping
qualities. This has necessitated get
ting fruit Of firmness of texture and
firmness of skin. These qualities have
been cultivated, with the result of the
production Of fruit Of somewhat
/ coarse pulp and thick coating. In
peaches this is the more readily notice.
able, but 1t is true also of apples and
pears. Strawberries as raised for the
city markets have suffered in the same
way. AS love-apples, tomatoes might
be classed with the fruits, and no vege-
table has suffered as tomatoes have
suffered from the same causes as those
that have produced the all but tasteless
peach. Many farmers in the garden belt
of New York, not large fruit growers
but the men who used to send the pro.
duce of their orchards to town, no long.
er make an effort to sell their fruit Il
buyers for the city, since they canno
get good prices for fruits, which though
superior In flavor will not keep in con
dition long enough to meet the demands
of the city marketmen. 1t is the frui
Of good keeping qualities that the cit!
markets demand. The city purveyor,
are not willing. and probably It is tru,
that they are not commercially able t
OF the delicate varieties Of fruit whicl
are so quickly perishable.
Such is the explanation advanced b.
some growers of fruit, at any rate, TO
the DISAPPEARANCE Of "the fruit that ha,
. taste" from the markets of New
York city.

Washington. Feb. 2.-Presdent Nc
kinley will soon annouh nee the appoint
ment of civil commission, TO be
charged with the establishment of civil
government in the Philippines. There
will be five members of the commission.

Worcester also a member of the Phil

member of the new body. 1t has been
determined that there is no necessity

an important circular, which was coun-

the effect of reducing the high prices
of commodities in the Manila market,

DEMOCRAT IN DERBY.
American Horse May Win the Great
English Race.
Horxemen and Lovers OF Sport in
This Country Hope That the
Yankee Geldin9 May he
Allowed to Run.

Democrat, the horse who by long
odds is the American favorite for the
coming English Derby, is certainly one
of the most promising youngsters that
have yet been entered for the classic
turf event. Not only has he already
hao d sensational career, having been
generally recognized as the best two
year-old of last year, but to-day there
are many good English sporting men
who believe that he stands as good a
chance as Forfarshire, the other favor
lite, to carry off the honors in the blue
ribbon events of the English racing
world.
An examination of the record of Dem
ocrat's performances last year, says the
Chicago Democrat, will prove beyond
dispute that he was clearly entitled to
the credit of being regarded as one Of
the best, if not the very best, two-year-
Odds of 1899. Those who have followed
his work know that he was not himself
in the early part of the season. AS the
result, he made but an ordinary ap-
pearance at his first three starts;
whereas, later in the season he easily
defeated such horses as Emerson and
O'Donovan Rosa, all of whom had
bested him at the earlier events.
In fact, it was actually not until the
Ascot meeting that Democrat began to
be himself, but at the Coventry stakes
he commenced that series of victories
that was broken only once before the
close of the season, this occasion being
his defeat by Forfarshire. Among his
great victories We're the Hurst Park
Foal plates at six furlongs, the Ma
tional Breeders stakes at five furlongs,
the Champagne stakes at five furlongs
and 152 yards, the Rous memorial at
five furlongs, the Middle Park plate a,
