ODD FRUITS OF JAVA.
The Most Common One, the DI<Sia an,
IL the StranYest Of All.

IL the StranGcst of All.
''The fruits of Java" writes CORE
spondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch,
form an interesting study in them
selves, there are so many and Of such
strange varieties. The most common
is the strangest of all. 1t is called the
DURAN and grows like huge eXcres-
cence from the trunk Of a tree some
what similar to our pear tree. The
fruit, which is pear shaped, grows to a
great size, often several feet in length,
and has a yellow skin, rough like a
pineapple. The most remarkable thing
about the durian, however, is its odor.
To say you can smell it block off is
putting it mildly. A combination of
aged eggs and the ripest cheese could
not be compared with it. When you
break open the hull to find what can
be the cause of all this disturbance to
your olfactory nerves and find a great
cluster Of snow white kernels which
taste like some strangely delicious GUS
tard, your amazement is greater still.
Another strange fruit is the serpent
fruit, so called from the fact that its
skin is the exact counterpart Of that of
a snake. There are the pomoloe, like
great orange; the potato fruit, which
resembles that vegetable in all but its
fine flavor; the custard apple, with a
yellow custardlike pulp, having rath-
er decided taste Of turpentine; the pop
pe, like a melon growing on a tree; the
great jack fruit, of rather coarse fla
vor; a small yellow fruit, with an un-
pronounceable native name, incased in
a great bur like chestnut, and hun
dred other varieties, with none but ma
tive and scientific names some good,
some Indifferent and some entirely un-
palatable to any but native. The or
ange is rather a scarce fruit, but the
pineapple and banana are abundant
and delicious, especially the former.
There are more than twenty different
varieties OF bananas native to Java"

WALTERBoRo, June Jim Black was
lvnched at New Road last night for the
murder of Mrs. J. n. Jones Il mouth ago
The information is that jim Black
was carried from Savannah, where he
had been apprehended, to Ravenel for Il
hearing before Magistrate Behling. AS
soon as he had been identified as the one
seen near the place at the time of the
crime he offered to tell them all about 1t
if they would not burn him. They
promised. He then said that he himself
had killed Mrs. Jones and threw her in
the goat house, while Cain Ford, Ned
Pryor and negro whose name could not
be learned watched; that the purpose Of
the killing was for robbery, he having
been told by one of the hands that Mr..
Jones had money in the house. He also
told of number of other robberies that
had been committed and number they
had planned.
Particulars are meagre as to how
Black was killed, but he was probably
shot to, death, after which they hung his
body to a telegraph pole by mailing his
hands with railroad spike. A placard
was then placed on his body, but l
haven't been able to ascertain what 1t
was.
Cain Ford is here in Jail Med Pryor was
killed some time ago while attempting to
escape. There are two reports as to the
other negro implicated: one is that he
was found dead in the swamp about two
weeks ago and the other is that he lives
several miles from Ravenel and that the

The negro was arrested near Savannah
and carried to Ravenel yesterday for ex-
animation. He was committed to the
county Jail to stand trial at the approach
ing term of the court at Walterboro. 1t
was while he was being taken from
MAGISTRATE Behling's office to Walterboro,
by Constable Fields, that Black was
taken from the constable by a mob OF
about So men and lynched. Black was
taken to the scene of the killing and there
he confessed to the horrible crime. He
implicated negro named Pryor, who is
now being hunted. They both had part
in the removal of her body, after the

Virulent Cancer Cured.

Startling proof of wonderful advance
in medicine is given by druggist G. W.
Roberts of Elizabeth, W. Va. An old man
there had long suffered with what good
doctors pronounced incurable cancer.
They believed his case hopeless till he
used Electric Bitters and applied Buck
lens Arnica Salve, which treatment COM
pletely cured him. When Electric Bitters
are used to expel bilious, kidney and mi
crobe poisons at the same time this salve
exerts it's matchless healing power, blood

YARNS FROM ERIN.

The Absurdities That Are Born Of
Irish Simplicity.
Here are q few samples Of the abb
surdities arising out Of the extreme
simplicity Of some Irish folk:
A young man came to confess to an
Irish priest in London whose expert
ences Of the humors Of his fellow coun-
trymen would fill a book. "Well, my
man." said the priest, land how do you
earn your livlngT "Tm an acrowbat,
your riverence" The priest was non
plused. "I'll show ye what I mean in
a brace of shakes" said the penitent,
and in a moment was turning himself
inside out in the most approved aero
batic fashion in and out of the pews.
An old woman who had followed him
to confession looked on horrified.
"When it comes to my turn, father"
she gasped, "for the love OF God don't
put a penance on me like that. 1t 'ud
be the death Of me-"
/ think it was the same good father
who, observing the regular attendance
at Lent mission had done nothing to
reform one Of his parishioners, told him
so and asked hir1 the reason OF 1t.
"Ah, father" he replied, 81 can man.
age the faith right enough, but the NOR
ais bate me-"
On another occasion this priest was
called upon to marry man of whom
he knew nothing to girl Of his congre-
CATION. On investigation he found the
would be bridegroom's knowledge of
the Catholic faith very limited.
Have you ever been baptized? ne
asked. "Well, father, can't trust me
memory to that" "Are your parents
living?" 1.-The mother is" Lets have
her address," This was given and
telegram dispatched to the old lady on
the spot, reply paid. The answer came
in due course, "Vaccinated, but not
baptized."-A Kerry Man in London

Lord Rosebery is the alleged subject.
On one occasion he went into large

on the same errand and mistook the earl
for one of the shop assistants. Have
you hat like this ?" he asked, showing
his own extraordinary headgear. Lord
Rosebery took it from him and examined
it critically before he answered: "No,"
he replied at len 9Th; II haven't got hat
like that, and if had wouldn't wear it %
