A North Carolina story.
New York Post.


Forty-fve hundred dollars for a dozen
and a quarter of eggs, and old ones at that,
is rather a high price Included in that
figure, however, are the damage to the
clothing of one Henry r. Seawell, and the
greater wounding of his feelings. It is
comparatively old story In North Carolina,
but a new one here, and II has a recent
sequel. Seawell Is a politician. He was the
Populist nominee for attorney general in
1900, and in that capacity visited Shelby
to make q speech. On his arrival he was
politely but firmly told by his political OPP
ponents that the people of Shelby did not
care to hear his eloquence. Wisely he con-
cluded to postpone his engagement, but
unwisely he accompanied this declaration
by some remarks not complimentary to
the people of Shelby. AS a consequence
when he was about to board a train of
the Seaboard Airline Railway Company
he was pelted with ancient eggs, fifteen of
which struck him. The station agent aided
and abetted the egg throwers, and that is
why the railroad company has to pay Mr..
Seawell $500, the Supreme Court of the
State holding. in a decision just rendered,
that a common carrier or its agent is not
only bound not to assault and maltreat an
intended passenger, but after he has gone
upon the premises. of the common carrier
Ii has to protect him from the offer of in
dignity, assault and battery. On the whole
the affair was not a bad one for Mr. Sea-
well. He has probably forgotten his agony
of soul in the three years that have elapsed
while $500 ought to keep a Populist in
clothing for a hundred years.

on shipboard. This Is particularly true in
the West, where the messenger service is
an important department of banana service.
The banana messenger holds rather
unique position. His duty it is to take the
for the Western trade out of New Or
leans. ofttimes having as many as twenty
cars under his charge. These cars must be
dropped all along the road. from ST. Louis
to the Pacific coast, and they must reach
each town in the right condition. The ma
turing OF the fruit takes place on the cars
and depends upon the messengers skillful
manipulation of the ventilators. No arti-
fetal heat is supplied in winter. The cars
are heated with stoves before departure and
the stoves are then removed. After that
the great mass of moist bananas will gen.
crate even too much hea. if left entirely to
themselves There is a thermometer in
each car, and it is the messengers business
to keep the temperature regulated perfect
ly, so that the dealer in Indianapolis and
the dealer in far-off Tacoma, Wash. will
get his bananas just right Twenty-Five
banana messengers make their headquar-
tiers in New Orleans, but in the East the
distances are so much less that only about
eight or ten are kept busy at this peculiar
occupation.
Bananas for New York come from Jamai-
ca, Costa Rica, Cuba, Santo Domingo and
Santa Marta in South America, while those
for New Orleans come mostly from the
United States of Colombo and various other
sections of Central America AS Indian
apolis secures all of it's bananas from the
New Orleans markets Hoosiers eat fruit
from Central America altogether. The fruit
company which controls nearly all of the
Central American trade raises 60 per cent.
of the product which it handles on its own
plantations, where it cultivates the fruit,
although it will grow without cultivation
throughout tropical America. There are
just two kinds of bananas. the red and the
yellow, but the red one is seldom seen in
the local market. Red bananas are used
to some extent in New York by high-class
restaurants for cooking purposes, as they
are considered better than the yellow fruit
for salads and fancy dishes. The house
banana and in this form it is regarded as a
staple article OF food The reason that the
| red banana is seldom handled in the United
| States nowadays is because of it's poor
transporting qualities. However, a local
| dealer is expecting consignment of this
| sort of fruit soon and when it makes it's
appearance the market it is likely to
! find many ready purchasers. as this is a
| city of banana eaters and the good Indian
| apolitans will not allow bananas of any
kind to spoil on the fruit stands.

SALEM'S EXPENSIVE NOISE.
Massachusetts City Is Losing All It's
Desirable Residents.

Boston Herald
1t is stated that Salem in the past year
has lost half million dollars in taxable
personal property simply because the in
tolerable noise of steam whistles on the
railroad and from factories has made the
place residentially undesirable. Several
leading citizens have thus been driven to
live elsewhere. Strong efforts have been
made to secure the abatement of the null
sance, but without avail, and other prom
inent residents announce their intention Of
going to live in other parts. One gentleman
says that in order to sleep nights he has
to go over to Marblehead, there is such
continuous footing of locomotive whistles
in his neighborhood. Indulgence in the
noise nuisance is therefore proving an ex-
pensive luxury for Salem. Not only is there
a loss of personal property, but in giving
an undesirable character to first-class resi-
Dental property 1t must tend to depress
real estate values, and thus cause the city
the loss of much revenue 1t is so easy to
effect reform in this regard that it seems
strange that it should not be done. All that
is necessary is for the city government to
adopt an ordinance regulating the matter,
just as many other cities have done, and
as every civilized community should do.
The blowing Of locomotive whistles within
the municipal limits, except in case of
emergency, has long been forbidden in NAL
den, Waltham and other places where they
had become a public nuisance, and no in
convenience in the operation Of trains has
ensued.
1t might therefore be thought that the
railroad company would voluntarily discon-
tinue a practice that is making one>of the
most important places on its line resi-
dentially undesirable. AS to factory whis-
ties, there is no excuse for using them
In order to call the hands to work there
is no reason why the peace of a whole COM
munity should be disturbed 1t Is simply
the persistence of an old habit that in more
primitive times may have had its justifca-
ton. But in these days Of cheap watches
and alarm clock every employee has the
means Of knowing when working hours be-
gin.
1t is remarkable that Salem, of all places,
trary to all the traditions OF one of the
oldest and most cultivated communities in
the United States. Salem has long been
considered one of the pleasantest places Of
have been drawn to live there by its beau
tiful location, its pleasant streets, its fine
old houses, it's historic traditions. its scien-
tific and literary institutions and the
charming social conditions that these things
imply. To have these advantages sacrificed
simply because incompetent local authori-
ties fail to realize the desirability of retain
ing them would be a loss felt far outside
the community directly concerned. Salem
is one of the most attractive features of
historic New England, and all New Eng
land is concerned In having 1t remain So
indifference to everything distinctive that
has characterised the place is likely to
grow. Unnecessary noise Is one Of the
as detrimental to health as to peace and
comfort.
