AMERICAN TEA.
1 be Experiment to be fllade in Flori
da of RaUiBKJhePlaut.
Palladalphla Press. -
Tea culture has. attracted considera
ble attention in this country for ilw
past few jears, the late commissioner
of agriculiureGen. XieDuc, bavin sr suc
ceeded in starting 4 goyernaituat tea
farm, wbfcb. has been iu operation two
or tbree years. The new commissioner,
Dr. Loring, is not so much interested
in tea as Gen. LeDuc was, and in his
report to the President, just published,
he makes light of the whole matter.
John Jactson, a scoicnman, wno culti
vated tea in the east for, fifteen years,
and who was the superintendent of the
government farm, was in this city yes
terday. A Press representative asked
him about the pet project of theagri
cultural department.
'The government has about given up
the matter," said Mr. Jackson. "The
truth is, the climate in Summerville,
South Carolina, where the tea farm was
located, is too cold for tea culture. The
frost which is sure to come weakens
the tea."
'Does it hurt the plants?"
"O, no. The only effect is to take
away the strength of the tea, and as
mild tea is not remarkable in this coun
try, I think it would be impracticable
to continue the experiment in a lati
tude so far north."
"Do you think tea can be grown
profitably in the United States any
where?" "I certainly do. I have had a tea
farm of my own . in Liberty county,
Georgia, about thirty-five miles from
Savannah, and have cultivated it for
two years. I find it a little top cold
there, the frosts being too severe. As
Un South Carolina the plants are not
i. it 1 M - X I 1 ? - AJ
in j urea, out me ieai is. x ueneve tue
best location to experiment in. tea cul
ture is in Florida, below the frost line
or latitude 28. Shaw looked over the
country, and I am satisfied that tea can
be raised profitably in that State."
"What do vou think the vield of tea
would be in Florida?"
"From five to six hundred pounds per
acre, which ought to be worth $1 per
pound in the South. The cost of pro
duction would be about thirty cents
per. pound including every expense."
"Do you tninK mere wouia pe a mar
ket for home-grown teas, if it is found
that the plant can be raised in any
quantity ?''
"1 don t tninK tnere is any aoubt or
it. People would know home teas to
be genuine and they are just as good in
flavor as any foreign teas."
"What has been the effect of Dr. Lor
ing's action ?"
"It has been quite disastrous like a
wet blanket on tea culture. I would
have gone to the Atlanta Exposition
with samples of tea, plants, etc., had it
not been for the action of the commis
sioner of agriculture. I propose, how
ever, to go into tne business myself.
and my visit north at this time is to
interest capital in the project. I have
seen representations of. the Florida
land company, which offers to furnish
the land for the farm free and take pay
for it in stock of the company. After
consulting with some gentlemen here
and in New York, I will at once go to
England and present the project to my
friends there. I have understood that
the government will furnish plants two
years old to any persons, free, who de
sire to embark in tea culture, so this is
a f avorabletime to begin the work, as
at least two years' time can be saved
by taking advantage of this liberal
offer. I expect to have the farm under
way next spring and to produce excel
lent tea in paying quantities within
two or three years.

"Does your father keep a dog?"
These words, uttered with the simple
earnestness that showed how deeply
their full meaning was felt by him who
spoke them, fell from the lips of Bthel
bert Dooley as he looked tenderly in
the face, spirituelle face, of Rosafand
Mahaffy. They were at the matinee,
and a dull pain stole into the girl's
heart as she shifted the last caramel in
the box over to the starboard side of
her pretty mouth. "Ethelbert does not
love me," she said softly to herself,
while a look of pain whitened for an
instant with a deathly pallor the pure
ingenue face, and shapely hand grasped
more tightly the dainty silk parasol
that served alike to keep off sun and
wind from the little form. "All gone,"
she murmured sadly "every blamed
one," feeling earnestly with her taper
fingers In every corner of the box, and
then a look of sweet content overspread
her features as she placed a hand in
the pocket of her sealskin gacque, only
to be succeeded by a dull, dazed ex
pression of grief and anguish.
She had lost her chewing gum.
"You look ill, darling," whispered
Ethelbert, as the curtain went down at
the close of the first act; "try some of
these," holding out a paper of peanuts.
With a glad look of love in her beau
tiful brown eyes Rosaland turned to
him and said : "I can never doubt you
again, darling. I would follow you to
the end of the world."
Tbe Japanese Tallow Tree
Mr. O. N. Denny, United States consul-general
at Sbanghi, has sent to a
friend in California, for distribution
throughout the State a package of the
seeds of the "tallow tree," which he
thinks will flourish there, with the fol
lowing interesting description of the
process by which its fruit is prepared
for use: "The nuts grow in clusters
and are gathered in November. When
ripe, the capsule divides and discloses,
usually, about three kernels, covered
with pure, hard, white tallow. In pre
paring the tallow, the ripe nuts are put
into a wooden cylinder with a perfora
ted bottom, and, after 10 or 15 minutes'
steaming, the tallow becomes so soft
that it is easily detected from the albu
men of the seeds by breaking them with
mallets. It is then separated from the
seed by sifting it through hot sieves,
but, of course, it is discolored from mix
tures with the brown testa of the seeds,
and in order to strain it and make it
perfectly pure and white, it is poured
into a cylinder made up ef rings of
straw placed one on top of the other,
and put into a rude press, when the
tallow is squeezed through in a pure
state. From 133 pounds of seed is ob
tained from 40 or 50 pounds of tallow,
besides the oil obtained subsequently
from the albumen by grinding, steam
ing and pressing it. . The tallow is used
for a variety of purposes by the Chin
ese, but more practically for making
candles, which are burned in Buddhist
worship."

Providence Journal. - ' -
Imagine a mite of a man, listless and
shaken in appearance, weighing but
fittlaover WO pounds, with; no particu
larly intelligent expression, andViff fact,
with hardly a ' manifestation ' of any
kind of power ror' force in his whole
showing. Physically - indeed, he is
weak, and it is said of himself and an
other distinguished New York capital
ists that .they have 1ut one lung be
tween them; -Mr. Gouid came into the
New York and New England meeting
and took his seat upon a front settee,
near the platform. He slouched down
.upon the bench so that his head rested
upon the rail of the settee back, and he
entered into the proceedings very much
as a stunted farmer's boy is wont to do
in a country Church, so far as position
and apparent interest in the exercises
are concerned. During the routine he
was thus partially hidden from many
would-be inspectors who were peering
anxiously in his direction, his neighbors
on either hand overtopping and out
bulking him. When the formal busi
ness was over, and speeches were in
order, cries of "Gould! Gould l" filled
the ball, and the little great man work
ed himself into a standing position.
If he had been a country bumpkin
essaying a first speech in a village
lyceum, he must have been laughed at
as he stood there. His face was wreath
ed in simpers, and his whole manner
was an exaggerated simper. When he,
at last, did speak, his utterance was
labored and hesitating and, still sim-
fiering, his voice light and with no tak
ng quality, and there was not a sympa
thetic or winning feature about him.
Involuntarily his critics viewing him
now for the first timesaid to them
selves; "This is not the mighty Gould
of the Stock Exchange; the dictator,
almost absolute, of railroads, worth
$80,000,000!": Yet this was,indeed, the
very man, this slight-built apparent
booty of weakness, of 45 years contin
uance. His reply to the calls of the as
semblage was, so far as his words were
concerned: "I will make you a speech,
gentlemen, after our first dividend is
declared."
Further from the Knights of Pythias
Calamity. -A Partial L,lst of the
CaualUea.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Jan. 3 Later
despatches from Shanesville, Ohio, in
dicate that the disaster at the Knights
of Pythias festival on Saturday night
was worse than at first reported. Some
of the supports under the centre of the
room gave way, and the floor settled.
The joists were kept up at the outer
end by the inside walls. This threw
the people, tables, stove, and all to
gether. The falling floors barricaded
the front doors, but they were soon
chopped down. The chandelier in the
store room belo'w was broken, and the
oil spilled over a number of persons,
burst into a blaze, and in a few min
utes Milton Yoder, aged 5 years, was
burned to death in his mother's arms,
and she was fatally burned. Fortu
nately tbe building did not catch fire
The following is as complete a list of
the casualties as it is possible to get:
Dead Miss Mary Nfff, 29 years ;
Milton Yoder. 5 years. Fatally burned
Mrs. Dr. Yoder; Mr. Allen Yoder;
Miss Annie Oren. Seriously injured-
Fred Schwab; Lewis Kerch (legs
broken); James Walter (arm broken);
Lizzie Showalter (collar bone broken);
August A Heider; Miss Lucilla Schiff
(ankles dislocated); George Frolicb, jr,
(feet burned). Some of these may die.
Tbe lesser casualties bring the num
ber up to nearly one hundred. The
gathering embraced tbe flower of tbe
intelligence and wealth of the neigh-
bornooa.
Fiber from the Stalk.
Galveston News.
Mr. Edwin James, of Brazoria county,
sends tne .News beautiful specimens of
cleaned fiber from cotton and okra
stalks. These specimens were obtained
by the water-rotting process. Mr.
James says, "submersion for a sufheent
length of time in stagnant water com
pletely separated the fiber from its
vegetable tissue." The specimen from
the ofcra is very white, strong, and
about two feet in length. It appears to
be about equal to the fiber of the lamie
in texture, strength and susceptibility
of separation into silken fineness. That
from the cotton stalk is darker, shorter
and coarser, but very strong, resem
bling coarse jute. Mr. James's experi
ment establishes the practicability of
separating the fiber from the woody
substance of these two plants, without
the aid of machinery, and as water costs
nothing, and the process is simple, it
may be that ne nas given the cue to a
profitable industry. As he says, "it
would be curious, and, perhaps, of great
service to the planters of tbe South to
estimate the value, if cured, of the mil
lions of pounds of this fiber annually
allowed to go to waste with the beating
down oi cotton ana okra stalks.
Insurance Policies.
The Supreme Court of the United
States has fast rendered an important
decision touching insurance policies,
Frederick W. Klein held a policy for
85,000 in tbe New Yoik Life Insurance
Company, payable to his wife. The
policy stipulated for a complete for
feiture in case the premiums were not
paid when due. Klein kept up his pay
ments regularly for fifteen years, when
he became deranged, and his wife being
ignorant of the policy the premium was
neglected on March 1,1871, and a month
after that Klein died. The widow re
fused to accept the surrender value of
the policy, and sued for the full amount.
Her counsel argued that the failure to
nav the premium not beinz the fault of
the insured, the company was not enti
tled in equity to take advantage of the
default. The court held that where the
policy provides for a forfeiture in case
the premium is not paid on a given day,
it is a contract by which the insured Is
strictly pound, ana from whose terms
he can not depart without incurring the
A. 3 1 Ii! mi
supuiaiea penalties. ice premiums
must be promptly paid when they fall
due or the policy forfeited, and neither
sickness, ignorance nor negligence on
the part of the insured can save him or
his representatives from the forfeiture
and loss.
Cheap Transatlantic and Transconti

The Southern Pacific enters promptly
upon the field of competition for trans

California correspondent reports that

of the road to Europe to carry the
heavy freightage of California wheat
and to bring back emigrants, who will
do carnea irom layerpooi to san Fran
cisco for $50. To do this the Southern
Company is having steamships built
The cars which bring the wheat from
the Pacific to the front will be so con
structed that they can be fitted with
berths on the return trip. The comple
tion of the short line to San Diego, on
the Pacific, will greatly shorten the dis
tance from sea to sea, and the comple
tion of the line to Galveston will make
itstill shorter- only 1530 milesin length,
and that,'too, far below the snow line,

other .transcontinental railways.
