A Quaint London custom.

1t is curious how few persons have
noticed the ancient and quaint custom
which is observed every evening dur
ing term in the walks of the Middle
Temple of sounding the call that warns
members of the inn that 1t is time to
dress for dinner in the hall at six. The
custom is as old as the Middle Temple
itself. where it alone exists.
At about tive-thirty p. m. thewarder
on duty energies from a side door of
the hall with an old-fashiOned cow
horn, richly ornamented with silver.
and commencing in Fountain court,
blows sustained blast on it, which he
repeats in New court, Essex court.
Brick court, Pump court, Elm court
and at the entrance to Crown Office
row. The whole operation lasts about
ten minutes, and when it is over the
warder, who is a kind of beadle in
plain livery, returns the horn TO the
buffers pantry.
Nobody seems to take any notice of
the horn blowing except small boys
and ticket porters, who occasionally
chaff the warder while he is engaged
in his musical efforts.

Tobacco is raised as an article of COM
merce in but four of the six provinces
of Cuba, Pinar del Rio, Habana, Santa
Clara and Santiago de Cuba, although
there is no question but that it could be
advantageOusly raised in the other two.
One of the industries which is now
practically dead, but which was form
erly the source of wealth and fame to
the island. is coffee raising. 1t is one
of the industries for which a great fu-
ture is promised. since it is known that
for richness, flavor and the productive
capacity of the trees the coffee Of Cuba
is not surpassed by that of any other
West India island or by South America.
History of Coffee Production.
In the years 1913 and 1916 violent
hurricanes visited Cuba and seriously
damaged the coffee crop. Owing to
these disasters the increased coffee
trade of the East Indies and South
America and the larger and more GER
tain profits of sugar cultivation. the
coffee industry Of Cuba rapidly de-
tllueQ anu ny loDp the amount export
ed was but 192,O6O arrobas The cot
fee plantations were converted to other
uses and the trade in coffee practically
disappeared. The worlds estimated
coffee crop of 1900 is 15,2S5.OOO bags of
134A pounds each. OF this amount
Cuba is credited with 100000 bags. not
enough for home consumption. A CON
sideration of these facts may result in
the revival of this important industry,
which. under free institutions. it is be-
lieved will regain its former position
among the agricultural resources OF
Cuba.
The raising of stock. which used to
be enc of the important resources Of the
country, Is no longer of any Importance.
excessive taxes having driven the land
owners into other branches of farm
production. There are, however, few
better countries for stOck-raislng than
Cuba and future promises are bright
for those who again undertake It.

QUEER PHILIPPINE PRODUCT.

The Doeriau Assai1s the NostriIs Vio-
Iently but Enchants the Palate.
The doerian is a fruit What it looks
like would be impossible to convey to
the thought, except by tinted pictures.
Its appearance is of slight moment
here, for even if the Philippines are
annexed the fruit will never be seen in
the American markets. 1t will not
bear transportation, and If that diff
Guilty could be obviated no quarantine
officer would dare to allow a cargo of
doerian to enter any port, its signs
of dire contagiOn are so manifest. The
unimpOrtant question of what it most
resembles may be passed over by say
ing that it never looks ripe and never
looks fit to eat.
The first dOerian which a newcomer
encounters in Luzon. and, above all,
at Iloilo, where they abound, does not
long occupy the eye, for the nose is
more violently assailed. When a doer-
ian Is in its best stage of ripeness its
odor is such as to demonstrate how
poverty-stricken the language is in
terms descriptive of foul odors. How
man ever discovered that this nauseat-
ing odor covers the most delicious Of
all fruits is a dense mystery. There is
but one way to eat ones first doerian.
Have simple faith and the utmost con-
fdence in the integrity Of the person
who proffers the revolving delicacy.
Then stand at distance to windward
while some immune breaks the fruit
open for eating. Holding a tight grip
upon the nostrils, rush upon the fruit,
and pop a segment into the mouth. The
moment the creamy pulp melts up on
the tongue and finds its way back to
the palate there is the victory won;
the Philippines have peacefully con
auered the invader No fruit can rival
its rich flavor as of strawberries and
raspberries mixed with violets and deli

A PSYCHIC PHENOMENON.
In This Case No Heed Was Paid to
the Warnings.

In This Case No Heed Was Paid to
- the Warnings.
Speaking of superstitions and
strange warnings that come to people"
said veteran Washington correspond
ent. Il had an experience once that l
hardly know how to account for. l
may say in advance that l don't believe
in any of the business that cannot be
demonstrated scientifically. One day,
not great while after the present ele-
yator TO the House press gallery had
been put in, my mother sent for me to
stop at her house on my way down
town, as she had something particular
TO see me about. l went, and she asked
me if there wasn't new elevator to the
press gallery. 1 told her one had been
put in three or four months before that.
She said that was it, and that ] must
not ride in it, for she had dreamed the
night before that l had been crushed
TO death in it. l laughed at her, of
course, and went on my way. Down
on + street l met an aunt who told me
she had something odd to tell me. She
said she had been the day before, with
a niece of her husband, to see for
tune teller as the niece had taken a
fancy to see one of those fakirs. The
fortune teller, however, instead of tell
ing the niece anything, had directed her
remarks to her (my aunt and had told
her that she had a relative, a young
man. whom she should warn, as he
would be crushed to death in an eleva-
tor. That was rather a jar to me, as |
was her only young man relative, and
as l had so shortly before been warned
by my mother. However, laughed at
her also and went on my way to the
Capitol.
II went about the committee rooms
awhile, and at last, quite fOrgetful of
my late warnings, went to the elevator
to go up to the gallery. The elevator
man, an old fellow whom l had known
for some time was in the cage when
l got there, and before opening it he
talked to me through the bars.
~ don't know, said he, whether
ought to let you come in here or not
"'Why notT inquired, laughing.
Because said he. as serious as
could be, L dreamed last night that
had run the elevator up too high and
that as you started to get in you slipped
some way under it, and when l got
down to you at the bottom of the shaft
YOU were smashed to DEATH
This looked like the fatal three
warnings and l confess l had a few
doubts myself, but l had some perve

left, and l jollied him on his notion
and got in. On my way up told him
what my mother and my aunt had told
me, and the old fellow was so scared
that he hardly knew what to do, but l
got through all right, and up to date
l have not been crushed in that eleva-
tor or any other, but, of course, that's
no sign l won't be, and if 1 ever am,
the cranks will be sure to hold me up
as frightful example. l suppose there
are some people who wouldn't ride in
that elevator for all kinds of money,
and still they may fall down stairs at
any moment and break their necks. -

INDUSTRIES OF CUBA.
AGRICULTURAL HISTORY OF THE
ISLAND REVIEWED.
Land Owners, Formerly Cattle Graz
ers, Are Now Successful Planters
Fruits and Vegetables Are Fine
Sugar and Tobacco.

Agriculture, which is the main Indus
try Of Cuba, has been given the most
careful attention in the United States
census report, which has but recently
been issued There are several chap
tiers in the bulky volume when have
been devoted to the subject Of agricul-
ture with interesting and valuable re-
suits. Special schedules were prepared
for the taking of census statistics from
the plantations. Even so the greatest
difficulty was experienced in procuring
accurate statements, since the majority
of the farms had been abandoned
throughout the war and were still TN
settled. Travelling over miles Of rough
country the census enumerators found
everywhere devastation and ruined
homes, still deserted and uncared for.
Tending to complicate matters also was
the fact that many Of the plantations
had been divided into small patches of
ground in order to avoid the taxes
levied even on the smallest subdivision
of ground at the rate of So. The ma
jority of the tenants resulting were
but of temporary residence and were
able to give almost no information con-
corning the land and its productive
ness. The schedules which were after
much work returned therefore are
somewhat defective. Previous to the
last war there were in Cuba 10000
plantations, farms, orchards and cattle
ranges, which were valued at 100000
900 pesos. or about S20O.OOO,OOO. The
only manufactures were those produc-

cate rose leaves. OF all the products
of nature it is the most delicious. The
first mouthful is all that is needed; the
nauseating odor is passed and done
forever; years may elapse between the
eating of two doerians, but the disgust
ing stencil will never again be perceiv-
ed. The plant, though now abundant
in the Philippines. is believed to be in
digenOus to Sumatra. There at least
they endOw it with magic power to call
the wanderer home, for the islanders
often repeat the proverb, who has
eaten dOerian will eat doerian."

ing raw sugar, molasses and rum.
Cattle Raising Formerly General.
In the early days of the island cattle
raising was the principal industry, ag-
riculture being very generally disre-
garded. The land was held in great
open ranges, privately owned but I'M
fenced and almost unguarded, like one
great wild country. The chief agricul-
tural products of Cuba are now tobacco
and sugar, with some fruit-raising,
which of late years has deprecated ow-
ing to the almost universal fruit-grow-
ing Of California. At present there is
scarcely more coffee raised than is re-

As compared with the whole amount it
is seen that 1924 pounds Of cereals and
vegetables were consumed, while but
900 pounds of meats, poultry and hsh
were eaten the nuts. fruits, eggs and
milk not being considered. as they were
regarded on the menu as but secondary
foods. The proportion of vegetables and
cereals may be regarded by some fami-
lies as being excessive. There are, in
fact, large number of families who
consider their tables well provided for
that do not consume half this proportion
Of vegetables and cereals. The proper
ton, however, is regarded by statisticians
as a normal one. and is classed thus by
the man who kept the statistics, as at no
time during the year was the proportion
of vegetable foods on the table regarded
as out Of the ordinary.
