ITo RE Continued
The Tulip Craze.

About the middle of the seventeenth
century the tulip became known in
Germany, and scientist named Ges.
uer gives the first description Of this
flower. First only the yellow variety
was known. and then other colors were
produced by crossing. The Dutch, par
ticularly the citizens of Harlem, pro
duced the most wonderful varieties of
this flower and obtained enormous
prices for them.
In 1894 the trade In tulips assumed n
peculiar turn. 1t dcgcncrated into a
sort Of game of chance. so that In
1873 the authorities felt called upon to
interfere and TO issue cdicts against
extravaganza in tulips. rs they former
~ had against trains and laces. This
Interference would seem to be justified
If one reads that in 1900 n single flower
Of this sort, called the Niccori, was
paid for with two carGocs of wheat.
four cargocs of rye. four fat oxen.
eight fat hogs, u fat sheep, two casks
OF wine, four barrels of beer. two tons
Of butter, l,OO0 pounds Of cheese. a
complete bed a suit of clothing and a
silver tankard.
Another bulb, the SCmper Augustus,
was paid for with 1900 gold guilders
and a coach with double team Of
horses. In Haarlcm the tulip craze
reached It's height in the decade from
1880 to 1910, when a price of l2.0Oo
gold guldcrs (about $1,000 American
money! is recorded for n single bulb.

Late Hours In st, Petersburg.

Personally know of no other town
where such late hours are the vogue
as in st. Petersburg. But your ST.
Pctersburger does not get up early In
the morning. At st. Petersburg the
music halls, which it is the fashionable
thing to attend after the theater-a
drive to them taking half an hour in
swift sleigh-do not practically begin
till II. Through the Neva at o'clock
In the morning you have to literally
push your way, and the favorite trains
for travellers are those starting about
s o'clock in the morning. These trains
save the Russian the trouble of getting
up early. He wishes his friends good

comfortably after supper without put

Wreck of the Maine.


1t will be pleasing to the whole
country to hear that the wreck of
the United States battleship Maine
is to be raised from it's resting
place en- the bottom of Havana
harbor. Acting under the direc-
ton of Gen. Leonard Wood, Mill
tsry Governor of Cuba, Lieuten-
ant Commander Lucien Young of
the United States Navy, and now
serving as captain of the port of
Havana, has advertised for sealed
bids for the work of raising the
wreck, which will be publicly
opened in Havana on the 18th of
December next. During his re-
cent visit to Washington General
Wood submitted the matter to the
Navy Department and received
the permission of Secretary Long
to undertake the raising the re-
mains of the famous vessel.
The special stipulation of the
contract is that explosives shall
not be used in the work; that the
vessel must be raised in manner
that will settle the question as to
whether or not the explosion which
sent the Maine to the bottom of
the harbor was. from the interior
or the exterior of the warship. As
will be remembered, that point
was never definitely determined.
The experts were apparently una
bic to agree as to whether the ex-
plosion was due to an accident on
board the vessel itself or whether
it was accomplished by the design
of those who had some Interior
purpose in blowing it up.
Inasmuch as the destruction of
the Maine was the immediate
cause of our war with Spain, the
decision of this matter will be of
much Importance not only to this
country, but also of universal in
terest It will be the clearing up
OF a great mystery. Of course, it
may transpire when the wreckers
do raise the Maine that the havoc
wrought on the ships bottom was
such as to make q decision on this
mooted point impossible.

Judge Foster Means Business

The rumor has been current
here that the Dugas trial which
took place at New Iberia last week
would result in an acquittal or in
a mistrial, possibly SONS one was
slipped in the jury who was look
ed upon as being doubtful, but
Judge Foster will not allow mis-
trials as easily as they have been
in the past, and has ordered that
the jury be locked until they come
to some agreement, as will be seen
from the following which We take
from the Times Democrat:
New Iberia, Nov. "a, midnight.
Judge Foster is determined to
put an end to mistrials. He has
taken the unusual step of adjourn
ing court for q week and leav-
ing town, and the Dugas murder
jury is locked up until next Fri
day.
The case was given into their
hands yesterday afternoon at $40
o'clock, and at q late hour tonight
they had not yet reached q YER
dict Upon the foreman of the
jury so reporting to the court to-
night Judge Foster said: "Gen-
The weekly messenger. [volume] (St. Martinsville [i.e. St. Martinville] La.) 1886-1948, 1900-12-01

tlemen, SO far as it lies in my
power to Do SO, the disposition to
tie up juries must lie broken up.
You must reach verdict. l will
give you until next Friday morn
ing to reach an agreement as to
the guilt or innocence of the &C
cused. The clerk will adjourn
court until next Friday morning,
Nov. 30, at $50 o'clock"
Accordingly, court was adjourn
ed until next Friday, and the jury
looked up until then. No provi-
sion was made by Judge Foster
for sealed verdict, and the jury
must, therefore, remain in the ju-
~ room another week, even
though a verdict be reached long
before next Friday.
In obedience to q summons by
the Supreme Court, Judge Foster
must be in st. Charles parish
Monday morning on judicial bust
ness, and he leaves for st. Charles
to-day. A verdict could not be
received on Sunday, so that it was
necessary for him to adjourn court
until he should return to this pa
IRISH, which will not be until the
night of the 29th. He therefore
adjourned court until the morning
of the Both, and, because he would
not accept a mistrial, ordered the
jury locked up.
The evidence in the Dugas case
has created very general impress
sion that the two principles, who
had disagreed about the terms of
drainage privileges through a
ditch upon the property of the
nephew, agreed, in the heat of
passion, to get their guns and to
meet in the public road and settle
the matter between themselves.
The uncle was the first there.
When the nephew emerged from
his gate, with his gun in hand, the
shooting began. With or without
warning is a point not clear from
the evidence adduced on the trial.
The nephew did not fire his gun.
He was assisted home by his bro
ther, and died six days later from
the effects of his wounds.
After the shooting the uncle re-
turned to his home, deposited his
gun, then came to this place and
surrendered to the sheriff, &C.
knowledging that he. had shot his
nephew. Both men had families.
They had been neighbors for some
time.
During the progress of the trial
Morinas Dugas has had three cpl
leptic fits in the courtroom.
