communicated
King George C., H.. Aug. =, 1901.
To TuE FREE LANCE:
Your Greene county correspondent, in
a letter published in your issue OF the I'd
inst. has furnished us with a riddle the
attempted solving of which has given
rise to controversy in this neighbor-
hood which threatened to reach alarm
ing proportions.
In his very pretty and interesting ac-
count of the wedding of Miss Estes and
Mr.. Harlow he speaks of the groom as
being the eldest Of lot OF four younger
BOYS" This is the sentence that has
split quiet neighborhood into warning
in irreconcilable factions
We strenuously maintain that eldest
of a lot of four" clearly indicates that
the groom is included and that there are
only four brothers TO us nothingcould
be clearer. On the other hand, the be-
nighted people who were once ourfriends
steadily and perversely declare that 'eld-
est of a lot of four younger" means that
there are four younger" than the groom
and that he makes the fifth. So we stand
drawn mp in threatening and hostile ar
ray. but we have declared truce until we
can hear from your correspondent in the
hope that he will hasten to declare that
we are right and so destroy the casus
belli. relieve the strained relations and
restore the "statu quo ante

ALL COFFEE CONSUMED
In the United States Can be Raised in Our
Possessions.

New York, May 10.-That all the
coffee consumed in the United States
can be grown in the islands which
have been acquired since the out
break of the Spanish war is the con-
clusion reached by the bureau of sta
tistics of the treasury department at
Washington after a careful study Of
the coffee producing capabilities of the
new possessions.
The islands in which coffee can be
successfully grown are Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines. Porto
Rican coffee,i in the markets where it is
well known, is regarded as the best in
the world, and it is the conclusion Of
the bureau of statistics that when col
fee plantations have been developed in
the Philippines and Hawaii all of the
| $l,OOO,OOO or more which the United
coffee can be expended among the in
| habitants of our own island The
Porto Rican coffee has long command
ed high prices in European markets
though it has been comparatively lit
tie known in the United States.
