FRUIT GROWERS FEDERATI0N.

sent by many who were unable to be
present were all in favor of the move
immediate action.
This first year the federation does not
plan TO attempt more than two or three
things, and, as they accomplish these
and feel their strength they will under
take more. They will at once take up
the matter of securing better transporta-
ton service and will make complete ar
engagements so as to be able each day
during the shipping season to furnish
all members with a correct report as to
crop and market conditions With this
information at hand growers will be able
to act intelligently in the matter of ship
ping or selling their fruit from day to
day. The federation is also committed
to the work of passing law compelling
every closed package of fruit to bear the
name and address of the packer. 1t is
confidently believed that such a law, en-
forced, will GO far in raising the stand
ard of Michigan packing and thus create
an increased demand for Michigan fruit,
to the financial advantage of the grow

Sergeant Anderson: Anderson was
the sole assistant to Faraday and Of
course was utterly uneducated in scien-

his rooms and coming down directly
afterward to work in the laboratory
during the evening. For some reason
he was prevented from coming down

down the next morning he found An
derson still stirring the pot, having
been at it the whole night and thus car

William j. Bryan is at home again
after his tour of foreign countries,
and he was welcomed home in a
royal name ty his fellow townsmen
at Lincoln. While touching the
high spots across the country frcm
the east to the west, Mr.. Bryan
spent a day in Chicago and delivered
an address. on which occasion he
embraced the opportunity to hold
Roger Sullivan up to the gaze of
Chicagoans from his own standpoint.
Mr.. Bryan reiterated what he said in
his open letter in demanding the
removal of Sullivan from the demo-
cratic national committee, and added
something more. Some Of demo-
Gratis of Illinois stood aghast at the
speech in attacking Sullivan in it his
home town. and they thought de-
cidedly unwise for the break to s.have
been made. Unfortunately Mr..
Sullivan was not at home, not hav-
ing returned from New York, where
he was one of the welcoming COM
mittee on the return OF Mr.. Bryan.
Sullivan heard of what MIR. Bryan
said about him in Chicago, and
declared that as soon as he got back
to the windy city, there would be
something emanate from his head
quarters which would cause MI.
Bryan to sit up and take notice
1t IS quite an interesting fight be-
tween the two democrats, with Sui
livan quite a long ways ahead, ow-
ing to the fact that the democrats
endorsed sullivan for two years long

also endorsed Mr.. Bryan's candidacy,
when that gentleman requested

Somewhat Startling.


San Salvador is built on q volcano.

an earthquake, but the people are be-
coming accustomed to such excitement
now. Earthquakes are pretty frequent,
and, while II is naturally nervous
there Is really little danger to life.
The shocks have been known to come
as frequently as eighty times in an
hour.
The effects are quite peculiar. In the
city is a brick column, nine feet high
and three feet square, which was re-
moved a hundred feet without losing
its perpendicular or cracking the NOR
tar.
The ground under the city is full of
caverns Of unknown depth. A man
was digging a well there. The last
stroke he gave with his pick the bot
tom fell out, and he and his pick and
all fell through, nobody knows where.
There is a volcano not far from San
Salvador that some years ago dis
charged lava yer a forest. The wood
all caught fire, Of course, but the lava,
being light and easily cooled. formed
and hardened into long arcades through
which It was possible to walk. Even
now the imprint of the trunks and
branches Of the trees q be seen.

Wilful Will. Makers.

The eccentricities of will-m makers are
never-ending. A few weeks back the
death was announced Of the famous
General Wistar, who had for years suf-
fered from ankylosis (immobility Of
the joint of the right arm, owning to
a gunshot wound. 1t was found that
he had left the damaged limb to the
Wistar Institute of Anatomy and Biol
ogy. which he founded. He also be-
queathed to the same institution his
brain and above 100000 in cash.
Even more curious was the will of
that other veteran warrior, Colonel
Sanbom. He left G1,0O0 to the cele-
brated Swiss scientist. Professor Agas-
siz, on condition that that gentleman
had his (the testator's) skin convert
ed into two drumheads and his shin
bones made into drumsticks. The resi-
due OF his estate went to a friend
named Simpson, who was instructed to
beat upon this gruesome instrument
on each recurring anniversary of GER
tain date which the gallant colonel
had desired to be kept in remembrance.
Dying some three years back, Herr
Duchatscheck, Of Dusseldorf, left In
structions by will that his only daugh-
ter was to have. on her marriage. a
dowry equal to her weight in silver.
Recently the young lady attained her
twenty first birthday, and was welded
the same morning. Immediately after
the conclusion of the ceremony she was
solemnly weighed in the presence Of
the assembled guests. She was found
to turn the scale at lost and to be
worth ESQ. One cannot help wonder
ing whether or no the bride had
previously made any effort to fatten
herself up for the occasion. 1t would,
ope would think, have been almost
worth her while.
