COOLERS BY The BUSHEL.
THE CITY OF MEMPHIS TAKES
HER ANNUAL LOAD TO
ST. LOUIS.

Yesterdays st. Louis Globe Dem
orat ssys: THE City of Memphis
steamed into the harbor Of st. Louis
yesterday with an unusual cargo, a
great shipment Of peanuts from the
fields Of Tennessee, over 5000 bags Of
the COOLERS, occupying nearly every
inch Of space she had devoted to
freight II would certainly have
given the small boy sad case Of
strabismus to have gazed on that load
Of peanuts, and doubtless there are
many Of the youthful levee habitues
suffering from the same physical CON
dition as the boy who tackled the
green apples, for the nuts were raw
and unedible, yet the levee rats ate all
they could get hold Of What panRs
they afterward suffered must be left to
the imagination.
Only about once year does such a
huge consignment Of peanuts reach
st. Louis, and this was one Of the
largest that has ever been landed here.
There were approximately 500,
pounds of the edible nuts in the
cargo, and its value is somewhere
near S25, 900. This shipment was due
to the almost unprecedented demand
for peanuts on the local market, de.
mand greater than has been known for
many years, but with this reinforce
ment will doubtless be able to keep
pace with the strain caused by the
heavy orders.

There is supposed to be a calculus

II was the close of the season when

stands again a solid structure. Had it
not been unusually well built, it could
never have stood as well as 1t did its
utter neglect and the ravages of time.
The foundation of Woodlawn Mansion is
a firm one There are two solid brick
walls extending from the attic to the cell
lar and they are as strong and compact
as they were when they were first built
ninety-seven years ago. The outside of
the house remains unchanged. But the
Registers found it absolutely necessary to
restore the whole of the interior through
out the main part of the house before
it was habitahlc.
The house is a perfectly straight front
brick building, four stories, including the
cellar and the attic. with no attempt at
ornamental design save for the addition
of the two straight wings TO the right
and left of the main portion Of the build
ing The wing OF the right contained
Major Lewis study; the one on the left
consisted of pantry and kitchen. Both
of these wings are still in such state
of decay as to make them unsafe and un-
inhabitable. They will be restored in a
very short time. There are two small
piazzas in the front, the upper one sup
ported by four solid round stone pillars
which rest on the lower one. To the

You won't find any caterer on America
who can put things together to taste like
that little woman's cookery. We are
going to leave her here with Mrs. Hayes.
They are both named Lucy and | hope
they'll get along together
Mrs. Grant is the best woman l ever
knew said Lucy ''lf all the women in
the world were as honest and reliable as
Mrs Grant Kingdom Come would be right
here. She was handsome, too. and never
saw such little hand and foot on a
woman of her size. She wears miss
glove and n No. 1 shoe. And such neck
and shoulders, Some time when she was
dressed for a party you would have
thought it was baby's skin instead of
woman's with grown children.
The general, you know. was fond of
telling what a great soldier Mrs. Grant
was once she took the children down to
see him during the campaign. He enjoyed
the visit but hurried them on board the
ship. telling them that they must go
back Immediately as skirmish was ex-
pected every moment. Mrs. Grant stood
her ground bravely and refused to depart.

right of the house is the quaint old dairy
with its rounding roof Very near the
kitchen is the smokehouse. which is much
like the dairy in design
The spacious cellar is larger than many
of the easements in modern houses. Here
there are several rooms and a sort Of
hallway. The ceilings and floors have been
recently cemented. In a rafter of the CELL
ing in one of the cellar rooms is a long
row Of wooden pegs put there for the pur-
pose of hanging up meat. There are large
fireplaccs in these rooms, as well as
throughout the rest of the house.
Secret Hiding Place.
At the top of the cellar stairs is Sc
cret hiding place. II is 4 dungeon-like
retreat, one in which few, not already
knowing the whereabouts of, could ever
find "lace OF refuge. In the attic there
is another hiding place. reached through
a trapdoor. This possibly could be found
with slightly less difficulty than the one
in the cellar. For what specific purpose
these hiding places were designed is not
known by the present owners of Wood
lawn. Possibly the dangers of the Revo-
luton had not been sufficiently forgotten
to justify a perfect feeling of security
even in ones own house. Or mayhap
