the reason that it would sweat and be

and answered the purpose of the local
trade. hut could not be exported. Our
manufacturers. however in due time sur
mounted the difficulty, whatever it was,
and our glace fruit is now equal 70 the
best in the world, as anyone can see for
himself by calling at the first confec-
tiOnery store he comes to. At the Ham
burg exposition California glace fruit
was on exhibition and samples were free

established a reputation for our product.

Incident in Lieut.. Pegram's Career.


An incident Of interest connected with
the work of the navy in China many
years ago was related Il few days ago by
Il shipmate of Lieut.. Robert Il. Pegram.
who, had he been an officer of any for
eign navy, would have been promoted.
aud il might have influenced him TO re-
main in the service of the Civil war in
stead of joining the Confederate navy.
The incident alluded TO occurred at the
time when the Chinese pirates were more
daring and murderous in their work than
they have been since. 1t was in 1877
when, IN connection with an English
commander, Pegram conceived a plan for
destroying the piratical fleet, and a boat
expedition was organized for that mr.
pose. Pegram, with about one hundred of
the American sailors, and the English
captain, with about sixty of his mon
made an advance in n harbor where IN,
pirates made their Headquarters. and
where were assembled large number nj

FROM THE DERELIcr.

Beyond the rim of waters vast
They saw her canvass CLEAN,
And then the apparition passed
Like an elusive dream.
She vanished ont of human ken;
She lost her name and fame;
But heaven alone knows where or when
Her desolation came.
Stunned by her kin and kind, though still
At heart as proud as they,
She bides her time to work her win
And holds her fate at bay.
While levin bolts forbear to strike,
As clouds above her frown,
She haunts abysses. phantom-like,
That wait to wash her down;
Until despairs appalling call,

Justice Harlan's dissent from the courts
opinion was based on the ground that as an
amount exceeding 5000 was not involved
the Circuit Court had no original jurisdic
ton Of this case, and that the Supreme
Court had no right where this want of
jurisdiction appeared to go into the merits
He said he agreed with Justice Brewer that
the courts were entitled to give relief in
such cases as this.
Justices Brewer and Brown, in dissent
ing opinion written by the former. held
that as there was constitutional question
involved the court should look beyond the
certificate of the lower court that the bill
had been dismissed for want of jurisdiction
and open the case for full inquiry. rhe dis
senting opinion added:
