WHERE PALMS COME FROM.
A Curious Industry That Has Come
TO Notice in This Country
of Late.

The man who is said 10 be The big
gest dealer ii palm trees in this city
is authority for the statement that
between 1000. 900 and G.00O.00O palms
have been distributed throughout this
country for use in churches to-day,
Palm sunday says the New York sun.
The man in question is Thomas ID.
Egan, whose Office at ~ Barclay street
has been filled the last few days with
persons waiting to give him orders for
palms.
IT may seem strange 10 one who
hasn't kept track of this sort of BUSH
ness" said Mr.. Egan, ito learn that
real palms have been used at all gem
orally In churches in this country only
about % years or even less. Before
1876 the churches here used sprigs of
cedar, hemlock or pine. The Sunday
before Easter that year happened to
be in a church at Charleston, 5. C., and
while there | saw for the first time
real palm leaves in profusion as the
decorations for the altar. Large
branches of the palm were blessed and
distributed to the people.
after the service | learned that the
leaves came from trees which grow in
profusion on the South Carolina is
lands | thought that If churches in
South Carolina could have real palm
leaves New York ought to be able to
have something better than substi-
tutes. The next year began Import
ing the palm leaves to this part Of the
country. That year was able 70 ship
only 1000 Of them. The demand for
them surprised me.
"Since that time the shipping Of the
leaves has become a real industry. |
The leaves are cut in January aud |
February, before they have opened up. |
and the trick Of preparing Them and
them from rot IS one which |
is not easy 10 learn. In seasoning |
them The leaves must be kept from the
light and in dry air II properly cared
Tor the leaves viii be clean and sweet
when they are used on Palm Sunday"

NEW WAY OF HIRING sUPEs.
Spectators Are Mad. 10 Pay for the
Privilege of Helping on
the show.

Two athletic youths with more en-
thusiasm than money went recently
to one Of the eity's cheap theaters to
see a prize fighter then starring and
sparring for % cents admission. The
next day they were half rueful. half
amused expressions which called for
an explanation, says the New York
Tribune.
"Well,' admitted one Of them. I'VE
had the funniest trick PLAYED on us
we ever struck. We saw the PLAY, and.
of course, we clapped as hard as we
could at the boxing part. Then one of
the ushers came up and said confiden-
TALLY that by paying ten cents extra
we could so round to the back and
see some more boxing. We jumped at
the chance. and went round behind the
scenes. No sooner had we cot there
than some one called out: More
supes. More supes for the street
scene!' and man rushed up and said:
You go on and supe for the scene
and wei refund your monevS We

so on we went. After the scene there
was an awful confusion. and we were
hustled out somehow. We tried to get
our money. but they were too sprv for
us. We just paid ten cents apiece to
60 around and supe for those people,"
