KING OF FRUITS.
To Eat DURAN You Must First Over
come Your Sense of Smell. y

To Eat Durian You Must First Over
come Your Sense of Smell.
The east furnishes in the DURAN one
Of the strangest of fruits. 1t has been
called "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-
r1an. It's consumption presents the
same obstacle to enjoyment as ripe
cheese. To eat durian one must first
overcome ones sense of smell. The
odor Of the durian suggests imburger
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 overdelicate 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 durian was placed
upon the table. The guest, on being
pressed to partake Of it. declined, with
this remark: "
ut may have been very good last
season, but if you will excuse me I
would rather not venture on it now"
The DURAN is as large as a mans
head and is covered with sharp spines
It grows upon a large tree. somewhat
similar to the walnut. When ripe it
falls, and if it should strike any one
the chances are that it would int1ict
damage. The natives. knowing the
danger of blow from falling durian,
stretch nets under the trees in pOpu-
lous places SO that the fruit may be
caught as it falls.-New York Sun.

Hope Is Expressed in the Official
Quarters That War Will Not
Be Outcome of Tanqle.

Belgrade, Servia.-War prepara-
tions are being carried on with fever
ish haste. General mobilization of the
Servian army has been ordered and,
it is expected, will be well under way
in twenty-four hours. The publication
of news of militarv movements is for
bidden
According to newspaper reports, the
Servian Minister to Turkey. DR.. Nena-
dovitch has left Constantinople for
Belgrade.
Belgrade is seething with excite
ment. The streets are full of uni
formed reservists, and the railway
stations are crowded with men on
their way to join the colors.
The mobilization of the Bulgarian
army simultaneously with that of Ser
via has added enthusiasm to the occa-
sion.
Athens-The Greek government, in
agreement with other Balkan states,
ordered the mobilization of her forces
by sea and by land. The reason given
for this step is apprehension on the
part of the Balkan states that
The mobilization of the Turkish army
and the disquieting internal condition
# Turkey might induce the Porte to
seek way out of the difficulties in
war
Alexandria, Egypt.-The officers OF
the Greek army reserve here have re-
eeived telegraphic orders to join the
colors Immediately. A Constantinople
dispatch says that all Greek vessels
here have received orders to leave
Turkish waters.
Constantinople.-Th Servian min
lister handed notice to the Porte and
the manner of it's presentation and
the nature of it's text practically
amount to an ultimatum from the
Serb country Servia asks Turkey to
decide within forty-eight hours
whether to allow the detained war

France
London.-The situation in the Bal
kans has assumed most menacing
aspect, and in diplomatic quarters in
London it is regarded as extremely
serious.

Carlo Tresca, of Pittsburgh, Pa, an
editor, who is an organizer of the In

custody, but gained his freedom a
minute or two later. Persons who
saw Tresca's arrest said he was res

smile, said that the loliec let him go.
The clash between the mill workers

STEAM CHEST BLOWS OUT
Men Go Down in Steam Filled Engine

officer Had Just Been Official
ly Commended for Bravery.

Newport, r. 1.-The explosion OF the
forward end of the port turbine, to-
gether with the steam chest on the
torpedo-boat destroyer Wake on
Brenton's Reef Lightship instantly
killed Lieut. Donald P. Morrison. the
chief engineer officer, and wounded
eight others, two of whom, j. W..
Rumpf and H. l.. Wilder, both ma
chinists' mates of the first class, died
on board the hospital ship Solace.
T. B. Crawford, gunner's mate OF
the destroyer Patterson, one OF che
umpires named to watch the speed
tests of the Wake, and John Delaney,
a first-class fireman of the Wake,
were fatally injured.
BY a coincidence, Admiral Andrews,
Acting Secretary of the Navy, had
forwarded to Lieut.. Morrison letter
commencing him for bravery in saw
ing the life of seaman Sept. 22 last.
The missive was received after the
officers death.
Others injured are: Lieut. Robert

The accident, the only one OF its
kind on record, occurred as the
Wake was starting on her second
quarterly trial and up to this time
naval officers have been unable to FIX
the cause. At the moment of the ex
plosion the umpires named to watch
the test and fully a dozen men were
in the vicinity and that any escaped
with their lives is considered remark
able.
The discipline of the crew is SAID
to have been perfect and their con
duct in leaping down into the steam
filled engine room to carry out their
wounded comrades brought the high
est praise from their superiors.
Lieut.. Charles R. Train, the com
manding officer, who was on the bridge
at the time of the explosion, handled
the situation in a way to gain him per
sonal commendation from Rear-Ad
miral Hugo Osterhaus, commander oi
the Atlantic feet, who boarded the de
stroyer later.

TWO JERSEY CONVENTIONS.
Republicans and Democrats Meet at
Trenton simultaneously.

Trenton, N. J.-Republican and
Democratic state conventions at
which Presidential electors were
nominated and state platforms adopt
ed were held in Trenton the same af'
ternoon without creating even stir
of excitement in the political atmos-
phere.
Representatives of the woman suf-
frage movement appeared at both
conventions and asked for recogni-
tion The Republicans inserted a
plank in ther platform declaring for
woman suffrage The Democrats
omitted such a plank on the ground
that the calling of a constitut' onal
convention, which their platform ad-
vocated, would sufficiently cover the
situation.
The Hudson delegation in the Re
publican. convention refused to sub
scribe to the planks indorsing Presi-
dent Taft and his administration. The
vote stood 81 to in favor of the Taft
proposition.
Governor Wilson told the delegates
at the Democratic convention that the
very crux and heart of the campaign
is the fight which that party is max
ing against monopolies. He urged
that this be made the theme of cam
paigners from now on.
The Democratic platform pledges
the party to retain the fundamental
principle of the Geran law. favors in
vestigation of the method of incor-
poration pursued in this state and
advocates the enactment of laws that
will "effectually tend to prevent
monopolies."
The Republican platform favors the
adoption of the proposed amendment
| to the federal constitution for popu-
lar election of United States Senators
and advocates submitting to the peo-
pie constitutional amendments pro-
viding for woman suffrage and bien-
| nial sessions Of the legislature.
Senator Walter E. Edge of Atlantic
City was chairman of the Republican
convention and Senator James F
| Fielder of Jersey City presided at the
Democratic convention.
