Courtesy to pomonn,s Statue.

A few months ago the venerable 0.
II. Kelley of Florida. one Of the seven
founders of the Order. was visiting the
annual session of a state grange. The
old gentleman's eyesight is not as good
as it used to be, and on being escorted
to the platform, whereon had been ar
ranged wax statue Of the goddess
Pomona, the old gentleman made a
most polite bow and extended his hand
to the statue In friendly greeting. This
was sufficient to excite the laughter
and applause of the audience; but, not
to be outdone and having discovered
his mistake, he turned the joke very
gallantly by giving the model an af-
fectionate embrace.

Hard on Oregon.

Mrs. II. T. West of this city has
i'm her possession a letter written to
her father. Rodney Sandford, by
Congressman G. n. Brastow Of New
York state, sevetny-two years ago.
1t is a response to an inquiry by
Mr.. Sandford on behalf of one Rev.
John Sears, a Baptist minister who
was anxious to 90 to Oregon in the
wear 1882 to do missionary work.
The congressman discourages the
idea in his letter, as the United
States government does not look
upon the region west OF the Rocky
mountains as good for settlement at
that time. Mr.. Barstow adds, that
If is possible. though that there Will
ultimately be established a stage
line from the Atlantic to the
Pacific oceans, in which case the
country may become fit for settle
ment, That was rather hard knock
ON a country that will next summer
hold worlds fair of its own.

CAN WIN PRIZES
Little Girls Wanted to Write
Doll Stories

Here is something that every little
girl in Greeley and vicinity should
be interested in, as it will give her
an opportunity to test her real abil-
ity as an essay writer, and may earn
her nice round silver dollar besides.
To the little girl under twelve
years of age who can write the best
doll story, about herself and her own
dolls, The Tribune will give 81; for
the second best story 50-cents will be
paid; and for the third best, % cents.
There is absolutely no trick about
it. Just sit down and think Of what
you know of interest about your doll
family; consult them if you want
to, and write it in the very best
language that you know. You can
not tell, yours may be the best story,
and if it is you will find many dol
lars worth of satisfaction in the
work, besides the nice doll buggy
you can buy with the dollar you re-
ceive.
When your story is completed,
place it inside an envelope, without
signing your name to it. Also put
in this envelope another envelope,
with a card or slip of paper inside
of it with your name and address
written on this. Then seal the last
named envelope and write the name
of your story on the outside of this
envlope, enclose the whole thing in
the outside envelope and send it to
The Tribune office by mail.
BY following this rule, the editors
and judges will not know whose
story it is until after the three best
stories have been selected. Then
the envelopes with the names OF the
stories corresponding to the names OF
tue three stories selected for prizes
will be opened and the little girls
discovered. The three prize win
ming stories will then be published
in the New Years number of The

contest must be in this office not
later than Friday morning, Decem-
her %. The earlier he better.

NEWS FROM BOYDS.

BOYDS. Nd. FEB. 9.-The death Of
DR.. George Was nington Taylor Wright.
at kensington. a. removed from that
community an old minister, who was at
one time prominent in the settlement of
some Of the towns and localities of Min
nesOta. His death at KensingtOn was
preceded by an illness OF more than
year.
DR.. Wright came Of distinguished
family OF Hardin county, Ky, where
ne was born in 1881, and after leaving
there, at the age of twenty-four. he
vent West and entered the Methodist
Episcopal ministry. After his return

Many citizens living along the Fred

anxious that the saloons along that line
be removed. and they have petitioned
the Frederick and Montgomery county
delegations at Annapolis 10 have them
removed by passing a local option bill 10

the annoyance from drunkenness has
been terrible for some years, and eacn

go through. The counter petition sent

the Eastern countries where tea is

ferent grades of tea upon the market
The tea-picking season lasts only dur
ing a brief portion Of the year: and
every leaf that can be picked in that
time must be used. The young leaves
are cured Immediately. and the older
ones are held for time when there
IS more leisure.

For many years the caravan tea" of
the Russians was thought to be the best
tea to be had outside tea-grOWing COuu-

been exploded. and now il Is known that
Russian tea Is not better than that
drunk In England or America. The
Russians get their tea from China.
while the English get theirs from Cey-
Ion and India. and Americans theirs
from Japan, Formosa, and CeylOn.
After all IL is the brewing OF the TEA

there is no danger in the tea habit un-

place. declare those who know. tea
should never be boiled. The leaves
should not even be allowed TO stand in

over them and the, beverage extracted
from the leaves should be allowed 10

less.
III one wishes two cups Of tea he
should not take them from the same
brew. say the connoisseurs, for. by the
time he has drunk the first cup the tea
which was drawn with II has stood too
long. and another brew should be made.
II this is carefully attended to one may
eniey tea much more and may drink IL
with impunity and have no fear Of dan,

According TO tea merchants whose eN-
perienCe is of value and whose knOwl-
edge Of tea has been gained from prac-
tically a lifetime study of IL in i'm
porting houses and upon tea plaEta-
lions in China. Japan. Formosa, India,
and Ceylon, there are more fallocies
concerning that plant and the beverage
it produces engrafted upon the minds
of the general run OF tea consumers
tnan would fill an ordinary book.
Every now and then we see something
new about tea. Now ii is that the tea
drunk in Europe and America is so
different from that drunk in the lands
where tea is grown. owing to the effect
the salt air has upon that which Is
transported by sea. that IL is difficult

the same plant; that the tannin in tea
Is a slow poison and sure TO ruin the
systems Of tea drinkers in a compare

that Russian tea is the best in the
world. the reason Of which is that it is
carried across the Continent by cara
van. and does not become ruined by
salt air.
All these stories are myths, say those
who know. In the first place, half the
brewing OF course, there are many
grades of tea, but the variety in tea
plants is not so great as the uninitiated
would think. One tea plant will furnish
several grades, the difference between
which is the difference in the age of
the leaves when gathered. The best
tea is made from the young leaves, ana
the different grades down to those
which sell lowest. are determined by
the age Of the leave and the quality Of
the plant.
Then there is the curing. AS soon AS
the leaves are gathered they are sub
jected to certain processes, the idea II
which is TO preserve the flavor. AS a
rule these processes involve the apph-
cation OF hot water to the leaves. This
hardens the outer surface, the result Of
which is the prevention Of the escape
of the aromatic flavor. After this the
leaves are subjected to other processes
in order that they may be properly col
oreo for all tea, emphatic statements
