Few people know the original mean
Ing of the word picnic" 1t is to be
found set out in the London Times Of
a hundred years ago. "A picnic sup
per consists of variety OF dishes. The
subscribers to this entertainment have
a bill of fare presented to them, with
a number against each dish. The lot
which he draws obliges him to furnish
the dish marked against ii, which he
either takes with him i'm his carriage
or sends by servant. The proper
variety is preserved by the talents Of
the maitre dhotel, who forms the bill
of fare. AS the cookery is furnished by
so many people of fashion each strives
to excel, and thus a picnic supper not
only gives rise to much pleasant mirth,
but generally can boast of the refine
ment of the art"

The Maynard Plum.

One of the new Seeding plums from
the experiment grounds of Luther Bur-
bank which he deems valuable is
named Maynard in honor of Professor
S. T. Maynard of Massachusetts,, who
saw the original tree in bearing on the
Burbank place in California several
years ago. Mr.. Burbank sent me speci-
mems recently. He says that the size
Is one-third below the average owing
to heavy crop on small trees He also
says that the trees of this variety are
"a surprise in vigor and are early and
abundant bearers" The size of the
fruit is large enough and the color
dark purplish red. The flavor is rich
subacid, much like that of many of the
Japan type, TO which it belongs. 1t
would be pronounced good in quality.
The flesh is firm enough, quite juicy
and tinted with purple throughout

Fresh MIX For Butter.

Samuel Haugdahl, the prize winning
butter maker, claims no man can make
as good butter when milk is delivered
only once In two days as when it is
brought in daily. To give further en-
phasis to the argument he says the
best butter he ever made-the two Par
is packages, for instance-were pro-
duced from milk which he got hold of
hoItly after coming from the COW and
which was churned the same day. The
lnfrequent milk deliyerer has been en-
rouraged too much. To remedy the
evil he proposes that the patron who
sends his milk to the creamery every
day be paid cent more per pound of
butter fat than the ruling price, he who
delivers it every other day the ruling
price, and he who sends less frequently
cent below the ruling price. There is
good reason in these suggestions, and
the adoption of them would influence
benefcially the quality of butter

Lamb Gnnrd OF snmnrn.

In a book called THE Duke of Hol-
STEMS Travels Into Persia and Mus
covy," published in 1896, there is an
account OF curious vine product
called the "lamb gourd," which runs
as follows: "In the neighborhood Of
Samara, Russia. there grows a gourd
which closely resembles a lamb in all
its members. 1t changes place in grow
ing as far as the stalk will reach, and
wheresoever il turns the grass withers
and dies. This change of the gourd
plant the Muscovites call feeding
They further say that when it ripens
the stalk withers and that the out
ward rind of the gourd is then covered
with a sort OF wool, which they use
instead of fur"
Scaliger also makes mention of the
lamb gourd and says that il grows UNI
til the grass fails and that it then dies
for want OF nourishment. tIe also says
that the wolf is the only animal that
will feed upon it,

Market FOR American Fotntoep.
The new market for potatoes that Is
rapidly increasing i'm the tropics is not
yet half appreciated by potato grow
ers and dealers. Here Is Governor
Hunt reporting that during the past
twelve months Porto Rico alone Inn
ported 100000 worth of potatoes from
Spain. II is true that under the treaty
of Paris Spain has entry into the mar
kets of Porto Rico, Cuba and the Phil
ippines under the same conditions as
the United States until 1908. There
fore Spanish produce and manufac.
lures are entitled to free admission
into Porto I.ico and into the Philip
pines ut a reduction of % per cent from
the rates of duty prevailing in the
United States. But 1t goes without
saying that America can produce pc
tatoes more cheaply than.Spain or any
other country, and every bushel of po-
tatoes consumed In the tropics should
come from this country. A word to
the wise is sufiicient.-American Agri-

She Needed Plates.

Superstition and the belief III the
incantations of witches are not en-
tirely dead, as the following tale will
prove:
One day a gypsy stopped at a house,
and, pointing to child, said, He is
sick"
''Yes, he's suffering from rheEma-
tisa," said the woman.
YES, and can cure him, lady. If
you will let me have six fancy plates,
but you must be sure they are nice"
'Oh, anything to get him WE'LL" said
the woman. I'm willing to do any
thing" and she fetched a half dozen
fine china plates that had been her
pride.
The gypsy set them out in a row, one
after the other placed her hands on
the four center ones, mumbled some
words over them and said:
Now. if you will let me take these
plates away with me to destroy them
your boy will be cured of rheumatism.
No more aches and pains for him, lady;
nothing but good health, lady. Let me
take them, lady, and cure him.
And the curious part of it is the wo-
man did give the gypsy those plates.

The Love of Mothers.

Among the lower animals the moth
ers love for her offspring lasts only
until the offspring is able to shift
for itself. The hen will fret and
fight for her downy chicks, but when
they become feathered and commence
to do their own foraging the mother
hen becomes Indifferent to them and
thinks only of Matching another brood.
The mare loves her foal and the COW
her calf only during the sucking pc
riod. Canine dams cease to show af-
fection to their progeny after the pup
by age, says the San Francisco Bulle-
tin. SO through the entire animal
kingdom below the human species the
maternal instinct endures only while
the young ones are helpless and ceases
when they have grown up.
How different is the love of human
mother for he, ldren! That love
never dies ana zee. to grow more in

TIE LAWS DELAYS.

Referring to protracted delays in the
strange case of Roland B. Molineux,
the New York World says: when
will the bench and bar of New York
unite to make these miscarriages of
the criminal law impossible? The
way is easy. There are no second
trials for murder in England Excep-
tions to the ruling of a presiding En-
glish judge are laid at once before
associate judges and by them decided
and there is no appeal. Why not
90 the same thing in New York;"
The question has been asked many
times when long delays in criminal
cases have called attention to the con-
trast between American and English
methods of dispensing justice. 1t will
probably be many times repeated be-
fore our ways in that particular are
mended. The question is of size and
interest enough for the people of the
Territories, who are about to make con-
sttitutions for their States, to take up
and consider. 1t is certain that under
our laws and court rules persons in
dicted for capital crimes are allowed
to postpone final action on their cases
beyond the requirements of justice,
and often to the defeat of justice
While we do not believe that poverty
deprives a defendant of fair trial, we
are sure that wealth, the ability to pay
for the services of the best criminal
lawyers, frequently secures a. defend
ant inexcusable delays.
We are not sure that the English
system is on the whole, preferable to
ours. But the contrast between the
two is we'll worth the consideration of
the men who will soon be summoned to
make a constitution for the State of
Arizona. Each Is an extreme. If
under our indulgent customs the guilty
sometimes escape, it is equally prob
able that under English law the inno-
cent are occasionally convicted While
the necessity for some change that will
render the extreme dilly-dallying of
the Molineux case impossible is appar-
ent, we think it would be going too
far to cut off the right of appeal

VOTE THE STRAIGHT TICKET.

The ticket named by the Democrats
of Pima county is entitled to the conf
dence and support Of the people. The
men named are well known to the
community, and many of them have
been tried heretofore with good re-
suits.
Frank Murphy has made record for
efficiency and economy in the Office of
sheriff He is model public officer.
He plays no favorites, but treats all
with fairness and courtesy. Charles
Blenman is possessed of ability and
character. He has had the trial of
important cases committed to him,
and has sized up to the standard of the
best lawyers in the Territory.
It would be difficult to find two men
so competent and SO deserving and SO
familiar with the wants of the county
as Harry Drachman and Fred Ron
stadt. They are taxpayers. They
are interested in the wel1-being and
progress of the community. They de-
serve the support of all prudent citi-
zens for the Office of supervisor.
The entire ticket is good. 1t is ad-
mitted that Judge Purcell makes a
most efficient, honest and obliging
probate judge. He is conspicuous for
his close attention to his duties. The
people who have come into contact
with Nat Hawke as city recorder will
be apt to cast their votes for him for
county treasurer, for he has been
faithful to duty, and obliging.
The whole ticket is good, from top
to bottom, and there is no reason why
every Democrat should not vote it
straight.
