LOSSES AT MONTE CARLO.
Not at the Gaming Tables, but From
Thieves and Piokpockets.

Not at the Gaming Tables, but From
Thieves and Pickpockets.
The extent to which pickpockets car
nv on their calling at Monte Carlo Is
shown by the experiences of an Eng
lishwoman, the wife Of prominent
member of the British colony in Paris.
While playing at the gaming tables IN
the casino she found suddenly that
somebody had opened her bag and
stolen her purse, which contained sew
eral hundred dollars. In letter to
her husband she writes:
at was about 5 o'clock when they
entered my complaint and a descrip'
ton of the purse in the ledger. re
turned after Z o'clock, and the clerk
had TO turn back three pages to find
the entry. =,
Surely said, these are not all
losses that have occurred since ! was
here two hours agoF -,
ayes, madame. they are he replied
and it's the same every day."
The writer thinks that "losses" Is
scarcely the right word to use. She
relates the case of another Englishwo
man who was robbed Of $1,000 in the
same way as herself. The victim ac
tually caught woman's hand in bel
bag and she held on until some detec
tiyes arrived, but the thief had alread!
passed the notes to an accomplice, ant
she was allowed to go.-Cor. New Yorl

ned the cart and inquired peremptorily
what on 'arth are them men dom

"They are trying to find out how

tended meeting in Tampa last week of

shippers OF the state. The object of the
meeting was TO interest the growers in
arranging for cooperation in the hand
ling of the Florida crop-the prevention
OF green fruit shipments, secure honest
labels, better freight rates, and the proper
advertising of Florida fruit with the view
of increasing the demand. Committees
were appointed in each county to gel
the sentiment of all Independent grow
erS and report at a second meeting to be
held in Tampa next month. Mr.. VIII.
liamS was made chairman of the COM
mittee for Putnam county. The organi-
zation will not interfere in the market
ing of fruit, except to advise independ,
ent shippers of dishonest brokers and
aid in the dissemination of knowledge
concerning the best methods of putting
up fruit with the view of giving the
Florida product better standing in the
markets of the country.

EXPERT FRUIT HANDLERS
From U. S. Dept. of Agricul-
ture, Here Next Monday.

Experts in the matter of handling
citrus fruits for shipping, sent out by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture and
who are speaking at all the leading
citrus fruit centerS, will address the
growers of Crescent City at the Audito-
rum next Monday afternoon, April Sd,
at o'clock.
These experts are making the same
campaign in Florida as was made in
California where the organized fruit
growers adopted the plans of the de-
partment, with the result that the per-
centage of decay on fruit delivered was
cut from IS to less than per cent.
These experts came to Florida on the
invitation of the Florida Citrus Exchange
and have been making a lecturing tour
of the state, everywhere being received
by large audiences.
Every fruit grower in Crescent City is
interested in the delivery of sound fruit
and there is no doubt but these experts
can show how large part of the decay
in transit can be avoided.
Hon. ]. II. Harp, who has been in
strumental in getting these government
experts to visit Crescent City, states thai
they will arrive here at noon; that the
meeting will be held promptly at z p
m. so that the gentlemen can leave or
the late afternoon train south.
The News is sure the growers o.
Crescent City generally will give these
gentleman from the Department o
Agriculture a hearing.

A Kings Hobby.

The late king of Siam had an extraor. dlnary hobby-that of collecting empty matchboxes of all nations. In this connection an interesting story is re- lated. During one of his visits to Eng land the king while passing down Bond street one afternoon, accompanied by two members of his suit. espied an empty matchbox which had been dis carded by its owner and thrown away Into the middle of the thoroughfare. Without a moments thought the mon arch dashed into the middle of the crowded traffic, grasped the much GOV eted treasure and was nearly run over by passing cab. The fact. however, that he was able to add new speci- men to his collection gathered under such circumstances more than com pensated him for the risk which he had run.-L.ondon News.

MOSCOW CATHEDRAL.
Fantastic Looking Edifee Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.

One of the most extraordinary and fantastic Christian places of worship in the world Is the Cathedral of Mos COW, known as Nasili Blajenni. strange not only in outline and conception, buf even stranger in it's history. No one knows the architects name. but tue story goes that the cZar ordered hi eyes to be put out directly the church was completed, so that be should ncvs CT be able to surpass his work The idea of the building was inspired by the wickedest and maddest monarch who ever sat on throne-Ivan the Terrible, cZar of Muscovy.
 The architecture is in every respect extravagant and barbaric. and the col. bring is garish in the extreme It has nine chapels. roofed by nine cupolas, each different and each stranger than the other. One resembles a pineapple. another melon. third Is said to ape a hedgehog in it's appearance, and the rest are more or less grotesque. Some are gilt; others are painted in brilliant hues. Indeed the only description is that 1t Is nightmare of a church. the fitting legacy of ruler who griled his counselors in frying pans and clothed his subjects in bearskins in order that trained dogs might worry and tear them to pieces.-Strand Maga- zine

Gothic Architecture.

Gothic architecture began about the ninth century after Christ and soon began to spread all over Europe. It's great feature is the pointed arch. and 1t was at first called the pointed style" Most of the glorious old world cathedrals are in the Gothic. and 1t Is generally conceded that for religious purposes no other style of architecture Is so perfectly suited. It has been said that the first idea of the Gothic was suggested by the interlacing boughs and trunks of the great woods in which German Christianity was formed: hence the name Gothic.-New York American.

 Tho excitement may be imagined therefore. when the word ran through Marpignon that large barbel-a tough and gamy fish-had been Senn in the stream. The Intrepid Fishers turned out and, having aseertaincd that there was indeed a barbel in the stream, Immediately stepped the wa ter some little distance above and bn- low him with aratihzs so that he could not get away.

Then the Intrepid Fishers counted up the notches that they had made on their fish poles, and the man who had caught the balbel the most times WAS declared the champion fisherman of Narpignon and received great honors
