A CAULIFLOWER TRUST.
One Organized by Long Island Farm
ers Is Reported to lie Doing
Good business

Some Long Island farmers estab-
come to be known as the caulitlower
trust, with headquarters at River
head. It's first annual meeting was
held recently at the Riverhead court
house, reports the New York Sun.
The association has prospered, for
when it was started only 25 farmers
attended the meeting, while at the
recent meeting there were 300 farm
ers present. Reports showed that 450
members, representing an acreage of
1.4OO, shipped last season 100000 pack
ages of cnIlihower, the total freight
rate rebates upon which were $4,-
j70.33, and out of this the expenses
of the association were paid.
The demand for and the supply of
caulihower do not always correspond,
and usually the supply from Long
Island farms exceeds the demand in
New York markets. The plan of the
trust to obviate this difficulty is to
build picking houses with cold stor-
age plants, and three of these build
ings will be erected in year.
When the market becomes glutted
with caulifower the farmer will send
his caulifiower to the sailing houses
When the demand is greater than the
supply there will be no sailing done
This one source of loss in raising
caulihower will be done away with.

Man Who Mis- tr listed
Banks Dies Rich.
After His Death a Hoard of
$1,000 Found in a Barn.
BURIED In A MANGER.
Mostly $40 Gold Pieces Packed
in Glass Fruit Jars.
Left Other Wealth in Real Es-
tate to Wife and Children.

Ottawa, Kan, Dec. 29.-The unearthing
of $500 in gold and greenbacks in Otta-
wa a few days ago has been announced,
following the death of Charles w. Rob
inson, who buried the money.
Robinson was an eccentric man and
practiced rigid economy. His neighbors
suspected that he had treasure buried, as
he had often said he would not trust the
bank. The money was found in the bot
tom of a manager in the Robinson barn by
friends of Robinson, after he had given
them instructions.
Robinson was assured by his physician
that he must die of consumption and di-
vulged his secret. The moIfey was packed
in glass fruit jars and was mostly in
gold $40 pieces.
The disposition of the Robinson estate,
which. including the cash unearthed and
the real estate and securities, will prob
ably reach so, coo. has been fixed by a
will, which Colonel J. w. Deford drew at
the time the money was dug up. Previous
to this time Robinson had made numer-
Gus wills, it is said. and successfully de-
stroyed them. He leaves three sons and
two daughters besides his wife.

GENERAL ALGER'S GIFT.
Gives Detroit Newsboys' Association
Check for $3.50.

Detroit. Mich. Dec. 29.-Following his
usual custom, Gen. Russell A. Alger for
warded to the officers of the newsboys'
association a check for the sum of $3.50
to be expended by the officers for the
benefit of the boys as they deem best.
In some former seasons General AlgeY
gave large quantities of clothes to the
youngsters, but for the past three years
he had been in the habit of making a
cash contribution. The money thus re-
ceived by the boys has heretofore been
made the basis of a bank account of 81
which in some instances creeps into sub
stantial amounts and may possibly be
the foundation Of large fortunes in some
future day. This plan was followed
again this year, and $50 more boys were
given a book in one of the banks.
