To Open the Lyon Mansion.

Among the arrivals by Saturday IS
steamer were Mrs. Cornelia Lyon
and Miss Lyon, of Crosse Isle, Mich
igan. The ladies went direct to
Grove Hall where they will remain
several days and until their hand
some home on South Park street can
be put in shape for occupancy.
Mrs. Lyon is one of the pioneers OF
modern Crescent City. She came
here with her husband in the palmy
days of the Potter House, back in
SOS. 1t was then that the big house
on Park street was erected. Besides
this Mrs. Lyon and her daughter own
much other town property. They
have not been here in two years and
the big house had begun to take on a
lonesome look, and its great roof
lookout was becoming a roosting
place for buzzards.
Crescent City people are not only
glad to have Mrs. Lyon and her
charming daughter with them again,
but they are delighted at the pros
pect of seeing the big house put on
some signs of life.
1t is one of the handsomest homes
in Putnam county.

The Saunders Bros, of this place
are among the most successful trap
pers in the state. During the winter
they trap a great many offers and
other fur bearing animals, the skins
of which they usually ship to- the
Chicago market. Last year in sea-
son lasting only three months they
sold over $400 worth of peIts, and
since Christmas last they have for
warded over 500 worth to market.
1t is hard business, but the Messrs.
Saunders seem to enjoy it.
Friends here have received cards
announcing the approaching mar
riage of Mr.. George S. Goodale and
Miss Frances Mayme Henwood.. The
ceremony is scheduled to occur at
Hancock, Michigan, on Wednesday,
January 22d inst. and the young cou-
pie will be at home after March lst.
The prospective groom is an old Cres-
cent City boy, and son of Mr.. and
Mrs. 5. w. GoOdale. He is a gradu-
ate in mining engineering, and holds
Il responsible position in his profess
sion in the big copper mining dis
trict of the upper peninsula of Mich
igan.
Mr.. and Mrs. c. A. Pratt arrived
from their home in the Green Noun
tain state on Saturday and stopped
at Crescent Inn for a day or two
pending the opening of their winter
cottage. Miss Pratt will not come
down this winter, and this announce
ment will carry much disappoint-
ment to our people, who had come to
depend on her for the injection of II
little life into our social entertain
ments for the winter. Mr.. Pratt is
a great worker for Crescent City
and has persuaded many people to
come here on the theory that
what has pleased me will please
others.' Both Mr.. and Mrs. Pratt
are very fond of Crescent City, and
are popular with our people,
There is a jolly crowd of "Yanks"
at Crescent Inn. In fact they sail
under the name of the Jolly Four."
The quartette is composed of H. c..
Gates, a poet, l.. n. Gates, Il ventril-
oquist, G. L. David, a parson, and
A. T. Swartz, of the judiciary. The
first two are from Cleveland-on-the-
Cuyahoga, and the last two from
Cambridge Springs, Pennsylvania
on-the-Dutch. All are men who are
extracting all the good they can out
of life. They like fish and will try
and catch all they eat. They like
music, and neighbors in the vicinity
of the hotel say they try to make it.
Any way they all like Crescent City,
and they are the kind of people who
will easily make themselves liked in
return. The News hopes they will
wade in fun and sport up to their
necks and get so stuck on the va
riety which has been going to seed
in Crescent City for the lack of their
kind of people that they will want to
come again and again. They will
make their home at the Inn for the
winter, and not being of the shy va
riety will probably know every body
before the new year gets its first
tooth

Faulty Packing,

Mr.. John Mccormick, head of the
New York fruit commission house of
| Mccormick, Hubbs q Co. and proba-
bly, the largest grove owner in Put
nam county, was in Crescent City
from Saturday until Tuesday, a guest
at Grove Hall. Mr.. Mccormick IS
orange and peach groves, covering
about 20 acres, are situated in the
outskirts of town. He looked over
the properties thoroughly while here
and to the News expressed himself
as well pleased with the progress
made in the growth of the trees since
his last visit, though he confessed to
some disappointment over the small
quantity of fruit yielded, a condition
he is unable to account for.
Mr.. Mccormick stated that his
firm had handled very little Crescent
City fruit this season owing to the
condition of the New York mark ct.
Growers have been enabled to get
better prices in Boston. Such fruit
as he had received from Florida,
however, had been good, and he eX-
pressed the belief that the Florida
orange would not suffer in future by
reason of it's long absence from the
market.
"There is one Improvement, how
ever" said he ''that will have to be
made by Florida growers, and that
is in the packing. Florida oranges us
rule are poorly packed, and it is a
rare thing to find box of them that
does not contain some spoiled fruit.
This should not be and can easily be
no -, 4
damp some of it is sure to spoil, and
the discovery of one spoiled orange
hurts the sale of the box. | believe
that an orange should never be pick
ed before 10 O'Clock in the morning.
By that hour the dew has evapor-
ated. 1t would not hurt then to lie
several days in packing house. At
any rate they should be thoroughly
dried before packing and shipment.
California is way ahead of us in this
respect. We never lose a California
orange by decay, and in my early ex-
perience in the fruit business, when
we handled Mediterranean oranges
principally, we never lost any from
that cause, though most of it was
from 60 to 80 days in transit"
Mr.. Mccormick believes that Cres-
cent City is on the eve of another
season of prosperity, but thinks that
all growers shOld pay more attention
to the little details of the packing
business in order to secure the lar
gest measure of success. He ex-
pressed himself as always pleased
with a visit to Crescent City, and
like many others is at loss to ac-
count for the great interest he feels
in the place and people. He left on
Tuesday for a trip down fine east
coast and to Nassau. From there he
will go on short trip to Cuba, after,
which he will return to Crescent
City for a ten days stop before re-
turning to New York.

New Peach Orchard.

Mr.. Kirk NJ. White is engaged in
setting out new ten acre peach or
chard on the property directly west
Of North Park. He will have the
earlier varieties-peaches that ripen
the latter part of May and June.
Those who have had peaches for the
market two weeks ahead of the
Georgia crop have heretofore made
easy money, and the News predicts
that it will not be long ere this Sec
ton becomes as famous for it's peach
es as it has for the excellence of its
oranges.
Mr.. Blaine SILVER also contem-
plates setting out good sized peach
orchard this winter.
