The Old. Old story.

Hot. tired and dusty, the excursion
was returning from the seaside day
trip, aud Simkins, a little bald man
with big ears, overcome with his day
of happiness, dropped OF to sleep. In
the hatrack above another passenger
had deposited a ferocious crab in a
bucket, and when Simkins went to
sleep the crab woke up and, finding
things dull in the bucket, started ex-
ploring. By careful navigation Mr..
Crab reached the edge of the rack, but
the next moment down it fell, alight-
ing on Simkins' shoulder. Not feeling
quite safe. it grabbed the voluminous
ear of Simkins to steady itself, and
the passengers held their breath and
waited for developments. But Sim
kins only shook his head slightly.
LET go. Eliza he murmured. Il tell
you l have been at the office all the
evening. "-London -Me-Up.

Worlds Fsnest FRUITS.

An interesting discussion in the Brit
ish Royal Horticultural society few
years ago as to what was the finest
fruit in the world ended by giving the
palm to "a certain yellow nectarine
raised from. a peach by the late Fran
els Rivers. Next to this perhaps comes
a properly ripened greengage, one of
the best varieties of the plum. The
greengage came into Europe by way
of Italy and from Italy was brought
to France early In the sixteenth cen
fury by the wife of Francis L.. in
whose honor it received the name of
Refine Claude, by which it is still wide
~ known. Soon afterward it was in
troduced into England from Italy I'M
der the old italian name Verdoch and
about the same time from France.
The latter importation, however, came
with lost labels to a family of promi-
nent English amateur horticulturists
of that day named Gage, from whom
the fruit received its present name

NATIONAL LEGISLATURE
Synopsis Of the Proceedings in the
Senate and in the House of
REPRESENTATIVES,.

Washington, Jan. II. - The senate
calendar was cleared of nearly every
bill upon it and the bill to revise the
criminal laws of the United States was
taken up and discussed until adjourn
ment. which was taken at 4: 80 p. IN.
until Monday. An executive session
was held.
The house put in the whole day on
the bill to codify the criminal laws.
and there was great deal of debate
But little progress was made.
Washington, Jan. p. = Just before
the senate adjourned Aldrich received
a letter from Secretary CortelyOu ex-
planning the delay in replying to The
resolution calling on him for infOrm1-
tion concerning the recent Panama can
al bond issue. The explanation in brief
was that the information could not be
prepared instanter, and would be forth
coming as soon as it was possible to
do the work. The bill revising thu
criminal laws was pending at adjourn
ment
Unrestrained opportunity to expires
views on the immigration question was
afforded members of the house. AMI
the codification bill was sidetracke, /.
while the members discussed i'm.
migration. The end was the passag
of a bill appropriating $250.O0O for an
immigration station at Philadelphia.

That Story of a Plot to Blow Up
Part of the BattIeship
Fleet.
POSSIBILITY OF TT BEING TRUE
But Not Too Much Credence Is Given
to the Yarn.
Washington Heard 1t and Cabled 1t to
Rio-Its Origin and What
Was Discovered
Later.

Paris. Jan. 2;--Tne reports cableC
from Rio Janeiro that the Brazilian
authorities were warned from Paris
of a possible attempt to blow UP the
United States battleship fleet while i'll
the harbOr are true. Some time ago
certain suspicious indicating the exist
ence of plot to destroy the whole OK
a portion OF the fleet, either at III

were aroused here and naturally COM
municAte;l TO Rio and Washington. =

constructors to Rio JaneirO, arriy II =
there about the middle of DECEMBER.
and John Fedher. whose name is mel
tiOEed in the Rio dispatches, was one
of the men whose name was revealed
here rs implicated in the conspiracy.
Story Skepticaliy Received.
The alleged plot is supposed to haV"
some rather startling ramifications. bu
the evidence along this line is ia:
from conclusive and rests chiefly unol
the statement of an individual whose
record was subsequently proved to hc
anything but creditable. Consequently
the whole affair is regarded with much
skepticiSm. and indeed the presump
ton has been raised that it may have
been ii deliberately concocted scare.
Details of the Matter.
The story in brief, as given by those
responsible for it, is substantially as
follows: A young man of good family
residing here alleges that he overheard
SnatcheS of a telephone conversation
in which vague references were made
to the cruise of the United States
feet and of plans concerning the fleet
which were being Matched at certain
cafe. Being of 'SherlOck Holmes
disposition the young man commune
Gated his Information to United
States official in Paris, and also estab-
lished surveillance of the cafe. 1t is
alleged that the observations at the
cafe disclosed several suspicious char
acters holding mysterious meetings.
Their movements are said to have Eeen
traced and their plans in part learned
as to the shipment of explosives to
Brazil. When the suspicious parties
were surprised they are said to have
shown fight. and in scrimmage which
ensued theyOung mansays he snatched

were porting. containing the cabaiistic
words 'menaced destroy to
