THE HERALD received very
pleasant call Saturday afternoon
from {. +. Ruth, of Houston, who
is prospecting in the Brownsville
country. Mr.. Ruth is an exper-
fenced orange grower, having been
engaged in that branch of horticul-
ture both in Florida and Georgia.
He thinks this section will prove
superior to either of the localities
mentioned for citrus fruits, and
wants TO buy a tract of land and
put out an orange grove. Mr..
Ruth says if he can secure a tract
of land located according to his
desires, he will put out an orange
orchard and has no fear the trees
or fruit will ever be injured by
such cold as visits this section. He
is an intelligent and interesting
talker, being a man who has had
actual experience in sections less
favored than this, and feels sure
orange growing here would be a
very profitable business. THE
HERALD hopes the gentleman may
be induced to locate with us and |
set the pace for orange culture i'll

CITY COURT CASES.

Mrs. Mary Moriarity of Barclay street, whose maintenance in the lock- up occasioned @ slight controversy be- tween the police and board of charities department, was before the city court yesterday morning charged with breach of the peace, and her actions and state ments left no doubt in the minds of those present of her insanity. Dr. Slattery and Dr. Butler testified that she was suffering from illusions and should be confined. She was committed to Middletown.

A REVERE.

There are times in the life of every thoughtful man when he becomes deep ly contemplative. Some little incident may cause him to ruminate and ponder and dream. He may be isolated and insulated or, on the grand promenade, among the 'nladdening crowd" He hears something or sees something, and like a flash thoughts and ideas possess him and hold him captive. The foregoing was prompted by the ex- perience of man who was walking on Chapel street yesterday and whose at- tention was at once riveted on the fruit display in the windows and store of John B. Judson, at the famous Mirror Stores And the display was certainly a choice one. Fruit in all varieties ana most tempting, brought from far and near and all of it of the highest grade of excellence, met the eyes and charm ed the senses of the beho1der. The man who gazed in admiration at the sight first thought that he never viewed any thing like it before in the way of fruit. And, as he noticed some fine apples in the collection, he said, ''No wonder Eve yielded to temptation" But still pom dering over the Eve episode, he won- dered what would have happened if all of the luscious varieties of fruits cul- tivated as they have been and brought to their present state of perfection, had been within Sight and reach" of our dear primal mother and father. Would they have chosen the, apple when the loveliest peaches and pears and grapes, such as Judson keeps, not to speak of other toothsome things, could be had. We in these enlightened days know that, fruit is not only a luxury, but also a necessity, and they who use 1t daily and freely are fortifying themselves against disease and adding much to their comfort and enjoyment. Follow ing are 6 few of the good things at Judson's: Native peaches, large and attractive, California Bartlett pears, native pears, English hot house grapes, Malaga and seedless grapes; also Con cords, Niagaras, Delawares. etc; Cali fornia plurns, very choice Florida pine apples, fine NewtoWn apples, California grape fruit, extra fine Watermelons and muskmelons, and many other delicious fruits which space forbids enumerating. The above citation conveys but a faint idea of what you can see If you go to the Mirror Store, The goods are ther.e'' and when you see them you will say that the choicest and best from many clifnes are gathered together in a most attractive and inviting array.
 Fancy baskets filled with a variety of fruit arranged in a strikingly ar tistic manner is one of the features at Judson's. Many baskets are ordered daily by patrons who appreciate the style in which the selection is made, as we'll as the quality of the fruit used. MT. Judson's trade is not by any means confined to this city. Orders are being continually filled for people in all ot the neighboring towns, and It IS not an lin- common thing to box and ship goods to Massachusetts, and other remote places.

GERMAN DRESS REFORM.
So We'll Established It Has Large Following of women Artists as De

So We'll Established It Has Large
 Following of Women Artists as De-
 signers F. n. -##5@s,.~.
 German reform dress for women has been attracting the attention of the world for some years, and has reach ed a quite incredible degree of pop ularity. The reform dress is met at every turn in Germany, at theatres an concerts, in society, and in the streets. A German town will scarcely to found says Else Oppler -Legbaud in an arti- cle in The Independent. without one or two sartorial artists devoting them selves solely to making the reform dress. There is even studio of ar tistic dress in one of the department stores in Berlin, with Mrs Oppier-Ie baud, who is a we'll known artist, in charge. @.*
 The reform dress movement, in Ger many has gone through two distinct stages, The first attempts were made along hygienic lines only. Several so- cieties for the promotion of the de- sired reform were formed in the Iline~ ties and a number of prominent phy- sicians joined the movement. The re- suits were not satisfactory owing to the lack of consideration for beauty. and many friends were lost o he cause Then he ariss came 0 he rescue, and he movement took new lease of life.
 As one of those whose work contri- buted to this end, Mrs. Oppler-Leg- baud says that she has aimed to ef- feet sensible compromise between fashion reform and the hyginic and practical requirements of the sex. This she found to be a difficult task, | owing to the absence of traditions to build upon. Paris dressmakers have no new problems to solve, but dress re- formers must begin at the foundation. They are also haInpered by the lack of | dressmakers able to compete with the conventional artists Yet all these difficulties have been sufficiently oyer- come to make the reform dress popu- l lar, .s
 "Men and women formerly opposed to our reform movement are gladly learn ing," says Mrs. Oppler- -Legbaud, ito appreciate the female form as nature has fashioned it, and are beginning to comprehend that the natural lines of nature lines of nature evidenced in the reform dress as opposed to the de- forming corsets form the very baste conditions of dress reform. To attain this happy aim when the eye rests and feasts with unalloyed delights on the Soft and yielding form of the fe-
 male body and it's beautiful and un. trammelled mobility is our hope"
 A practical street dress has been the greatest stumbling block of the re- formers. They did not wish to go to the extreme of promenading boomers, but have been successful in introduc- ing the skirt of ankle length. As dresses worn with shirt waist meet with most favor for street wear, they are made to distribute the weight of the material on shoulders and hips
