NC TRACE OF THE GOLD.
@uch mystcry Over Gold Robbery on Steamer
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse.

BreiucrhaVen. April 1o.-It is officially
announced that two bars Of gold were
stolen during the voyage Of the North
German Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm
der Crosse. which left Now York. April
2. and arrived at ChCrbourg. April 9. Tn'
company has offered a rcword of 1900
marks for their res tituticn or for the dis
poSure of the thieves.
1t was announced in d dispatch frC II
bars worth about S3oT0 had beer stolen
during the voyage of the Kaiser VIII
helm der Crosse from New York The
stolen bars were part Of i shipment OF
$500 600 in gold made by the National
City Bank of New York.
Bremen. April l0-Thc directors Of the
North German Iiovd Steamship CO. have
apparently learned nothing definite as to
when or where the theft Of thc gold bars
took place. Captain Engclbart of the
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse. is of the
opinion that the gold was stolen at either
New York or Southampton. The police
here, result of their inquiries. think
the robbery was probably committed in
New York.
Paris. April 1o-Ncithcr ihr Chcrbourg
nor Paris police hav" found any trace of
the missing gold bars or OF the thieves.
They are confident that The bars were
not landed in France and think they arc
still aboard the Kaiser Wilhelm dor
Crosse. The only suspicious incident on
board the steamer was Il fight between
two members Of the crew on tho eve Of
her arrival in ChcrboGrg, during which
both men were stabbed with knives. \
iitt!c later the robbery was discovered.
These particulars have been tciCGTaphc,l !

BlANKET1Nc ORANGE GROVES.
0OW the Young TPess Are Protected sssaA the Frost h tho
 1OutE.

Who ever heard of an orange tree be- ing rolled up in blanket at night7 They never heard of such a thing in Florida until the year of the blizzard when the temperature dropped from s5 above zero to 20 iu one night and thousands of orchards full of fruit were turned black and bare. Now orange growers have blankets for their trees and when there is danger of a frost tents are stretched around them. and very likely big kerosene lamps or small stoves are lit inside the tent to keep the fingers and toes of valuable trees from being nipped. Only 30 seconds are need- cd to put up some of these tents which are already in place attached to poles beside the trees and operated.by means Of rings and strings. in an hour a who.e orchard can be made to look like an army camping ground. Some young orchards of many acres are osed in sat houses which can be opened and closed ike window shutters. Still an- other way is to inc.ose the orchard in board fence. as high as the trees. On frosty nights roof is formed by strips of muslin stretched CD wires from one side of the fled to the other. In all of these inclosures artificial heat of some kind is kept up and every thing is used from hand lamps to big sheet iron "sa.a. manders" and miles of stovepipe to distribute the heat to ell parts of the orcharda

VIRTUES OF THE ONION.

Itis with the onion as with the lemon. Its devotees regard it as panacea for . good many ills and as & preventive of many of the disorders to which flesh is heir.
 Tho onion is really . very ordinary vegetable. but there is one point which distinguishes it. and thnt is the some. what high percentage of sulphur it contains. Possibly the virtues nscribed to 1t depend on the presence of this element.
 Like the lemon, the onion may lay claim to antiscorbutic properties that is. to qualities which render it preventive of scurvy. It's mineral constituents include proportion of potash salts, and probably it's anti scorbutic qualities depend upon these latter compounds.
 The onion is doubtless . healthful enough vegetable, hut it's supposed sleep-producing powers are said to be mythical. The virtue of orion juice as remedy for the stiugs and wasp at- tncks Is conceded. In the cottager's repertoire of "Rrst-aid" expeGients, onion juice, rubbed on the sting, rep resents the ammonia of more g! vanced stage of domestic medicine

"What do you think of her?" asked the man, as he and the gir. locke to- gether at drawing in one of the H. frustrated magazines, according 10 the New York Sun. For answer the young woman took up pencil and wrote across the top of the page: "She is very distinctly lavender"
 What do you mean?' said the man. '~rhe drawing looks to me very much as though i. were done In back and white"
 "Of course" said the young woman. but I mean the real girl of who that is the picture. always sum mp people in terms of color.

THIS COUITRY'S ARID AREA.
1t 10 S.a rger Than the Donna in of Ssme el the NatioAA of the
 Earth. ..

The arid region of this country Is larger than the entire area of some of the nations of the earth. says n writer in the Saturday Evening Post. IL in e.udes portions of Montana. Wyoming. Co.orado. Utah. Nevada. Arizuna and New Mexico. and smaller portions of Worth and South Dakota. Nevada, Kansas. Texas, hundreds of thou sands of acres fn Ca,ifornis. two.thirds of Oregon. one-third of Washington. and almost all or Idaho altogether total of over 100000 square miles. enough. in fact. 10 accommodate oue-haif the people of the United States when the land is made productive.
 To allow all this splendid country to go to waste wond be contrary 10 the spirit of a practical nation.
 All this arid land neeEs is Irrigation. Already large part of it has been con- verted 10 fertility by the artificial sup ply Of water. Gradually and strongly the experts of the government have .urged upon congress policy of assist ance which will convert many of these acres into fertile fields. In this way the suggestion has come that to the river and harbor bill there shall be added provision for storage reser- voirs in the far west. If it should be done land that is now of no practical value would be worth $lO or SEQ an acre. and thus it happens that far western influences are openly in favor of the proposition. Something like ss.00o.oo0 is the first suggestion in the war of the new deDarture
