Twelve full grown coffee trees have
been imported from Coatapec Mexico,
for exhibition at the Pan American
Exposition at Buffalo. They average
about six feet in height and are con-
sdcred fine specimens. The leaves
resemble those Of peach tree and
here and there green oblong berries
varying from one to three-quarters of
an inch in length grow in clusters on
the branches about midway between
the trunk and the end of the limb.
When ripe these berries turn to a dull
red and the bean inside is then ready
to be cured. Coffee trees begin to bear
in the third season and remain fruited
for about six years.

in Eastern Pennsylvania. Scranton Is
the most desirable place. to them, and
If they can secure a satisfactory site
they will locate here. The building
will cost at least 100000, it Is said.
The Passionists comprise a self-sup-
porting organization and do not rely
on local aid.

The passionists are a missionary
body. They recruit and educate young
men for missionary work. Their Ho-
boken monastery is one Of the finest
religious houses in America. 1t was
recently improved and beautified at an
expense of $4,000. The order derives
it's revenues from large endowments
made to it from time to time and from
conducting missions in parishes.
