KING OF FRUITS.
To Eat a DURAN You Must First Over
come Your Sense Of Smell.

To Eat DURAN You Must First Over
come Your Sense Of Smell.
The east furnishes in the DURAN one
of the strangest of fruits. II has been
called 1.-THE king Of fruits. as the or
ange is the queen" but there are many
who entertain no liking for it.
There is this difficulty about the du.
rian. Its consumption presents the
same obstacle TO enjoyment as a ripe
cheese. To eat DURAN one must first
overcome ones sense Of smell. The
odor OF the DURAN suggests limburger
cheese. onion sauce. brown sherry and
other incongruities. 1t has also been
compared TO the smell of limekiln In
full operation.
The Malays are excessively fond OF
the fruit. and those Europeans whose
sense of smell is not oyerdelicate con
tend that the DURAN is like rich but
terry custard favored with almonds.
A British officer at Penang once
dined member of parliament about
to leave for home. Among other deli
cacies an overripe DURAN was placed
upon the table The guest, on being
pressed to partake of II, declined, with
this remark:
at may have been very good last
season. but If you will excuse me /
would rather not venture on It now"
The DURAN is as large as a mans
head and is covered with sharp spines.
1t grows upon large tree, somewhat
similar to the walnut When ripe 1t
falls, and II 1t should strike any one
the chances are that It would inflict
damage. The natives. knowing the
danger of blow from falling DURAN.
stretch nets under the trees in popu
lous places so that the fruit may be
caught as it falls.-New York Sun.

OPENING COURT IN LONDON.
Picturesque Ceremony That Accom-
panies a Criminal Trial.

The setting of criminal trial in. Lon
don is in striking contrast with that of
any similar scene In an American court
room. The opening of court in the
morning and after luncheon is curl
Gus ceremony, according TO T. Lean
ing's "a Philadelphia Lawyer In the
London Courts" The bar and audi
ence rise and through door CORE
spending to the one by which the Wis
tOr has reached the dias enter the
two sheriffs, gowned in flowing dark
blue robes trimmed with fur.
Then comes the undersheriff. in very
smart black velvet knee breeches.
white rufiled shirt. white stockings, sill
yer buckled shoes. cooked hat under
arm and sword at side. The sheriffs
bow in ushering to his seat the judge,
who is arrayed in wig and robe. which,
in the case of the lord chief justice or
one of the judges Of the high court, Is
of brilliant scarlet. with dark blue
sash over one shoulder. or In the case
of the common sergeant is Of somber
black.
The judge having seated himself in a
charlse cumbersome as to require a
little track to roll 1t forward sufficient
" close to the desk-the sherlffs dis
pose themselves in the seats not occu-
pied by the judge or his guest, and
later they quietly withdraw. They
have no part in the proceedings. Their
only function is to usher the judges In
and out and TO entertain them at lunch
con. for the judges are by custom their
guests.
At luncheon time the sheriffs escort
the judges from their seats. and all the
judges. sherffs and undersheriffs and
any guests they may invite assemble
in the dining room of the courthouse
for an excellent substantial luncheon
served by butler and footman in blue
liveries with brass buttons, knee
breeches and white stockings.
The luncheon table looks odd with
the varied costumes, the rich blues. the
bright scarlets and the wigs Of the
party. who. no longer on duty. relax
into jolly sociability. Indeed, the Wis
itor cannot escape the impression that
be has in some way joined a group of
''supes" from the opera who are snatch
ing a light supper between the cho-
ruses.
