PINEAPPLEs FROM BAHAMAS.
Schooner Arrives at Baltimore With
First Load of Season.

Laden with 1000 dozen pineapples from
the Bahamas, the schooner j. Edwin kir-
wan has arrived at Baltimore with the
first load of pines to be brought there
this season. 1t is probable that the
kirwan win be the only vessel employed
in the pineapple trade this season. A
considerable portion of her cargo, it lie
said. will be brought to this CITY,.
Until a few years ago, when a duty was
imposed on the Bahama pineapples the
business of importing the fruit was an
important one to Baltimore packers. 1t
was not uncommon for a fleet of thirty
or more fast schooners to engage in the
trade. some making as many as three
trips during the season.
Officers of the Kirwan say there is a
large crop of pines on the island this
year, but owing to the dry season they
are small. There is one feature about
the Bahama pineapples that cannot be
excelled. and that is the flavor. While
pineapples are grown in Cuba, Florida
and in the Hawaiian Islands. they do not
compare in quality and favor with the
Bahama pines. say experts.

pices of the College Club of the school.
Il am glad to see that in a business
school you are interested in something

out art would be a failure 1T is right
that you should mix in a little art with
business; you will appreciate business
BETTER he said.

responsible in large measure for the pres
ent system of high schools which this
city has. and which he said ARE unequal
ed in this country and are unexcelled in
the entire world"

of which he was one, went to the ap-
preparations committee Of Congress, and
as pupils of the high school asked that
a high school be erected on the site of
the present Central High School, The
senators declared they were much i'm
pressed, he said, and soon after an ap-
preparation was made to build the present
high school.
The old high school which l attended,
said Mr.. Hanford. was a two-room
building with only principal and his as
sistant as teachers. We had an occa-
sional visit from the drawing or music
teacher. So you can see how you have
progressed"
Mr.. Hanford recited several selections
from Shakespeare, including one from the
Merchant of Venice" W. A Miller, a
teacher Of the school, presided.
