ADVICE TO THE Young WRITER.
BE Brief. TIL You Have Made Reputation,
Says the Literary Agent.

"If you have good incident about which
to group story" said one OF the literary
agents who undertake the job of selling
the young writer's copy, that incident
is worth a certain amount of narrative.
1t may be equal to 800 words or it may
be strong and intense enough to make
5000 possible. Young writers over-elabo-
rate. One came yesterday with a story
more than 5000 words long / told the
author that the central idea was good
and the story readily marketable if he
reduced it to 1 500 words. OF course. he
was furious and will send around the story
10 the magazines. After it has been re-
fused by all of them he will condense il to
800 words and bring il back 10 me.
And how he will criticse the tastes of
the magazine readers which compel him
to condense his story, He will say that
he is not allowed 10 put in character, OBJ
servation, wit or anything but the skeleton
of his plot.
THAT il unfortunately true so far as
the beginner is concerned. In his case
the editors want a story quickly told.
After he has acquired a reputation it may
be possible for him TO digress from the
facts of his plot. But he must stick to
business until he is well enough known
to make people read whatever he writes,
whether il IS interesting or not.

watched the capitalist as he glided from
painting to painting, taking careful note
OF the frames as though estimating their
cost.
"Jabez was astonished at the amount

was wrong. He was also impressed by

robber bent on carrying OF his treasures,
and he determined to get rid Of his caller.
when Jlbez turned, the artist stood
close beside him.

would-be patron, putting his hands in his
pockets and balancing himself on his heels.

AN EVENT IN TIE ora NOE IRA DE
The fastening of Porto Rico Fruit May
Drive Out Jamaica Oranges.

Y The arrival last Monday of Porto Rico
oranges of this years crop five weeks
earlier than the first receipts last year
was an event of more than usual interest
to local fruit importers. Owing to the
damage to the Jamaica crop by the recent
hurricane and 10 the lateness of that crop
because of insufficient sunshine, the i'm
porters of the Porto Rico article believe
that the latter fruit will come into increased
favor this season and compete more
seriously than heretofore with Jamaica
and even with Florida, oranges.
The trade in Porto Rico oranges ST art ed
only two seasons ago, following the re-
moval of the duty. As there is duty Of
about rs cents barrel on Jamaica oranges,
the importers Of the Porto Rico fruit say
il is only Il question Of time before the
latter will virtually drive the Jamaica
oranges out of the market.
Only a few scattering boxes Of oranges
which come from Porto Rico in the course
Of a season are cultivated fruit, pract icalv
all the oranges growing wild, They are
gathered by the natives in the interior
and sold to the shippers for few dollars
a thousand. Within the last few years,
however. many groves have been set out +,
and, beginning with next season, cultivat ed
fruit is expected to come here in const antly
increasing quantities,

JUST 4 STRONG MAN NEEDED.
One Case Where Good Riceps Were More
Useful Than Much Ingenuity.


man and a woman in an automobile
we're stuck in Chambers street just west of
Broadway the other afternoon. 1t was n
small machine, evidently come from New
Jersey by way of the Erie ferry. Along
side each of tho car tracks in Chambers
street is a deep rut The wheels Of tho
aut omobile Just fitted in these ruts, and,
as it had been raining, the ground was very
slippery.
The automobile followed the track for
the cars going toward the ferry, and had
almost got to Broadway when car came
along and blocked the way. The man
running the automobile worked the steer
ing gear to get the machine out of the way,
hut the wheels just slid along the rails and
refused to leave the track, When the auto
mobile was almost touching the noses of
the car horses he turned off the power.
Then he reversed, went back fifty feet
and tried it again with the same result.
Still another attempt 10 get Off the track
failed and by that time the usual crowd
had collected Persons made humorous
suggestions az TO how best TO get the ma
chine off the track The man who was run
ming the machine took it good naturally
enough. But the machine stayed where
il was.
The car conductor got a long strip of
wood and placed it over one rail with the
idea Of using it for wedge. That didn't
work. The automobile simply pushed the
wedge aside. The conductor was sure the
auto could be moved that way and tried
agan-aI in vain.
Meantime, big man dressed like long
shoreman stood on the curb, seemingly
greatly Interested. When every scheme to
get the aut omolJile Off the track had failed,
he stepped over, lifted the front of tho
machine Off the track and SGT it straight
before the woman in the automobile even
had a chance to scream.

This is only the cost of sailin: and build
