ORANGES IN THE EAST. FORMERLY A LUXURY, NOW ALMOST A NECESSARY—NOTES ON SOME OF OUR CALIFORNIA VARIETIES. From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. The orange, formerly a luxury of the sick room and of the holiday season, is rapidly becoming a staple in the growing variety of fruit that supplies comfortable homes. This is partly due to the improvement in the orange itself since its production in the United States, but more largely to the growing consumption of all fruits as their toothsome, healthy qualities are generally realized. Florida has been the chief source of the American supply, and it is estimated that she had 5,000,000 boxes of oranges on her trees when last season's frost substantially destroyed the growing crop and seriously crippled the trees themselves. While the real damage has proved less wholesale than was at first supposed, it has temporarily dehroned Florida from her control of the orange market, and directed attention to the supply of Southern California, hitherto Florida's only noticeable rival in the home production. The Washington navel especially, in whose development and supply Riverside and vicinity have borne such conspionous part, needs only favorable introduction to win spoody and profitable favor. But Riverside, though raising fruit products of $1,500,000 to $2,000,000 annually, is but in the infancy of her orange output. The official report to the State Comptroller for 1894 returned 376,452 orange trees in bearing in the River-side district, and 639,035 young orange trees not yet in bearing. Still, while now growing and packing over a third of California's 1,800,000 boxes of oranges, Riverside is being encircled by a galaxy of young orange towns like Anaheim, Ontario, Pomona, Highlands, Colton and Redlands, which are fast making a name and reputation of their own in the orange market. Ontario alone set 1,400 acres to oranges last year, besides 500 acres to lemons and 3,100 acres to deciduous fruits. It is a far cry from the original home of the orange, in India, till it has finally circolated the globe in Southern California, but it has been reserved for our own century to see the golden spheres made a considerable article of commerce, so that hardly a country grocery but has the orange in its list of merchandise. The Romans, with all their wide conquests and numerous and expensive luxuries, do not seem to have been acquainted with the orange. The Arabs, fired by the fanaticism of Mohammed, have the honor of bringing the orange from their conquered provinces in India to their Mediterranean empire. The year 922 is given by an Arabian writer as the date of this valuable addition to the fruits of the Western world, and he quaintly adds: "One knew it not before, but it lost much of its sweet odor and fine color which it had in India, because it had A. Garey. Among promising new varieties of the orange is the Tardiff, a Mediterranean variety that promises much, since it can be put upon the market when other kinds are gone, being marketable from May to Christmas, when the orange season begins its new year. LATEST FROM CUBA. MARTINEZ CAMPOS DISMISSED FROM THE COMMAND OF THE SPANISH FORCES—HE RETURNS TO MADRID. New York, Jan. 16.—According to private advice from Havana, there was great excitement on the exchange there yesterday, when much seditious talk was indulged in. Several colonels and officers of volunteers who were present made speeches against Captain-General Campos, and a general protest was expressed against his military activity and overhumane policy. One major of volunteers proposed that Campos be either forced to resign or be lynched, and the speech was met by cheers from various Spanish merchants. The majority of the representatives of Spanish business houses present signed a petition to close the exchange, and many favored closing the stores as a protest against Campos' permanence in the island. A delegation from the volunteer corps officers was named to wait on Campos and insist that Panado be called and given full military command and that Campos either radically change his policy or else resign the governorship. The Spanish sentiment against him is increasing hourly, and trouble is feared. Several foreign vessels in the port, in direction of their consignees, have suspended the discharge of their cargoes, waiting the outcome of affairs. General Marina has been hurriedly called from Matanzas and is now in consultation with the captain-general. Campos depends upon the regular forces and upon the fleet to support him in the event of trouble, but at this moment there are few troops in Havana, most of the columns being out after Gomes and Macoo, and unfortunately all the warships are away cruising up and down the coast. A significant editorial appears in the Diaro de Marino, the organ of the reformist party, saying that the country and business circles cannot longer stand the strain. KEY WEST, Fla., Jan. 16.—Efforts have been made toush the matter up, but it is evident that there is a great deal of friction between the insurgent generals in Cuba, Maximo Gomez and Antonio Macoo. Macoco leads the negroes and Gomes the white element. While they operate in harmony and on occasion join forces, the divergences between them are said to be irreconcilable, and it is feared will lead to civil strife if the independence of Cuba is won.

Riverside, January 18.—The scene presented in Riverside to-day is a sad one. The frost which came upon the valley on Saturday night, January 4th, was known from the start to have done great damage, but it takes several days to reveal the true extent of the damage done, and all manner of estimates have been heard. The Times correspondent has purposely refrained from comment until the damage was fully in evidence. The rain did its work of loosening the fruit from the trees, and throughout the valley, barring a few scattered orchards; the ground beneath the trees is growing yellow with the fallen fruit. While the damage is no more severe on certain orchards than that of two years ago, it is evident that the damage covers more territory, extending almost entirely over the valley. Riverside had in sight on January 4 a crop of oranges promising to bring in more than a million dollars to the growers. What will now be realized is a matter of conjecture, but the most favorable estimate that can possibly be made is that the marketable fruit has shrunk one-half. One of the leading packers had bought heavily of oranges. A good portion of them he succeeded in marketing, but on Thursday he hauled out and dumped by the roadside twelve carloads of fruit for which he had The orange, in India, till it has finally circled the globe in Southern California, but it has been reserved for our own century to see the golden spheres made a considerable article of commerce, so that hardly a country grocery but has the orange in its list of merchandise. The Romans, with all their wide conquests and numerous and expensive luxuries, do not seem to have been acquainted with the orange. The Arabs, tired by the fanaticism of Mohammed, have the honor of bringing the orange from their conquered provinces in India to their Mediterranean empire. The year 922 is given by an Arabian writer as the date of this valuable addition to the fruits of the Western world, and he quaintly adds: "One know it not before, but it lost much of its sweet odor and fine color which it had in India, because it had not the same climate, soil and all that which is peculiar to that country." As conquest brought the orange to the Holy Land, the bloody, expensive oranges, fruitless in many respects, scattered it, with the apricot and other fruits of Palestine, throughout Europe. The monks of that age, preserving so much to literature and agriculture, included the orange among the exotic that graced the courts of their monasteries, and when their successors accompanied the Spanish explorers and merciless tyrants they soon planted the orange wherever they established themselves in the New World. None of these missions scattered along the California coast was more prosperous than that at San Gabriel, a few miles east of the young metropolis of Los Angeles, and here Father Tomás Sanchez planted the first orange seed said to have been brought from San Rafael, in Lower California. Happily the mission buildings at San Gabriel are still in a fair state of preservation, for the early monks had hundreds of Indian converts in their employ, storing silver which they got by raising and shipping wheat to Mexico and hiding to Boston, not to mention their wines and immense flocks of sheep. Father Tomás enclosed his prized orange trees with a high adobe wall, and a generation later Don Luis Vignes removed thirty-five of them to an exotic garden he was planting at Los Angeles. It was reserved for a German settler of Los Angeles, however, William Wolfskill, to plant California's first orange grove in 1841 as a business speculation. Vineyards were then paying handsomely in three or four years after they were planted, and their owners sootted at Wolfskill for raising an untried fruit which required longer time to reach profitable fruitfulness. German pluck triumphed, as it has often in other fields, and Wolfskill, adding to his orange grove by buying a nursery planted with seed from Central America and the Sandwich Islands, lived to sell his last crop, from about twenty-eight acres, for $25,000. Insect pests subsequently checked the orange product for some years, and it is said that in 1862 there were only 25,000 orange trees in California, two-thirds of which were on the Wolfskill property, now swallowed up by the main Southern Pacific station and residence lots. It was not till Riverside proved its profitability that orange culture became general in Southern California, and in 1862 Luis Rubidoux, whose sheep ranged over Riverside's barren acres, went before the County Supervisors and declined to pay any more taxes on that part of his ranch, which he pronounced "utterly worthless." Yankee ingenuity and industry have since brought water upon this same worthless land, and, as already stated, it now markets fruit products, chiefly oranges, with a cash value of between $1,500,000 and $2,000,000. Riverside's first orange trees were planted by Dr. Shugaird, March 1, 1871, and it cost twenty-five cents a barrel for hauling water to keep them alive, as the first irrigating canal was not finished until some months later. The Agricultural Department at Washington imported several orange trees from Bahia, Brazil, in 1873, and a couple of orange trees, budded from the Brazilian stock, were sent to Mrs. L. C. Tibbets of Riverside, from which sprang the famous Washington navel, the main source of Riverside's widespread reputation as an orange city. The navel orange is merely an effort of nautical most of the colonies being out after Gomes and Macco, and unfortunately all the warships are away cruising up and down the coast. A significant editorial appears in the Diario de Marino, the organ of the reformist party, saying that the country and business circles cannot longer stand the strain. KEY WEST, Fla., Jan. 16.—Efforts have been made to hush the matter up, but it is evident that there is a great deal of friction between the insurgent generals in Cuba, Maximo Gomez and Antonio Macco. Macco leads the ngroes and Gomes the white element. While they operate in harmony and on occasion join forces, the divergences between them are said to be irreconcilable, and it is feared will lead to civil strife if the independence of Cuba is won. The stories of dissensions in the camp were at first discredited, but they now find many believers. The insurgents themselves make no secret of the fact that there is a friction. The white men declare they are availing themselves of negro assistance for the purpose of attaining their ends, but that no negro will be allowed to participate in the direction of public affairs. Macco it appears, learned of this some time ago, and now there are two distinct insurgent factions. Recently Macco is said to have vetoed Gomez's promotion of Lieutenant Macco to the grade of general, and threatened to back up his veto by force if necessary. Gomez compromised by accepting for Macco the position of vice president of the provisional government. Macco has so far had the advantage in strength. He has a large command, three times the size of Gomez's column. Cubans here say. Some time ago Macco is said to have declared that if unable to carry out his program he would return to the eastern provinces and set up a republic with himself as president. Without consulting Gomez or any member of the provisional government, Macco, so the story goes, appointed his secretary minister of foreign affairs. The secretary was killed in battle a few days ago. Meantime General Gomez complained to the head of the provisional government, Margaria de Santa Luca, who is now trying to patch up the quarrel between the two leaders. The severity shown to those who express dissatisfaction with the situation does not allow to suppress this feeling, and the matters of discontent and of criticism become daily longer and deeper. The Union Constitutional, the Reformist and the Conservative parties-to-day announced that they declined longer to support Martínez de Campos in his policy of the conduct of the campaign against the insurgents. There was a great manifestation of the people's sentiment to-day and frankly. A feeling of intense excitement pervades the city. MADRID, Spain, Jan. 17.—The Cabinet this evening decided to recall from Cuba Captain-General Campos and his brother-in-law, General Arderius, second in command. Generals Marin and Pando will be temporarily substituted in their places. The supreme command in the island will be conferred on General Weyler, who will sail for Cuba forthwith, in company with General Polavioja. Before action was taken the leaders of the Constitutional, Union and Reformist parties of Cuba cabled to the Government here demanding the recall of General Campos. HAVANA, Jan. 18.—Traffic on the Western railway of Cuba has been infinitely suspended. The machine shops are closed and employees have all been discharged. While the war continues no efforts will be made by railway directors to resume the running of trains, all bridges of importance between this city and Finar del Rio having been destroyed by robber torches or bombs. The line is owned by British capitalists, and until recently it yielded them big dividends. Two-thirds of the tobacco of the celebrated Vuelta Abajo district was carried over this line. The Spanish authorities are indignant at the superintendent because of his decision to make no further attempts to accommodate traffic while hostilities continue. Martinez Campos required the line to transport his troops, and semi-official Havana most of the colonies being out after Gomes and Macco, and unfortunately all the warships are away cruising up and down the coast. Riverside had in sight on January 4 a crop of oranges promising to bring in more than a million dollars to the growers. What will now be realized is a matter of conjecture, but the most favorable estimate that can possibly be made is that the marketable fruit has shrunk one-half. One of the leading packers had bought heavily of oranges. A good portion of them he succeeded in marketing, but on Thursday he hauled out and dumped by the roadside twelve carloads of fruit for which he had paid $7000. With all their misfortune the people of Riverside are manifesting wonderful pluck. The calamity which fell upon them never shook their courage. The extent of their misfortune would never be heard from their lips, and yet the interests of the future demand an honest chronioling of the conditions as they exist. One of the private packing-houses has closed for the season, and about the others there is no longer evidence of a disposition to rush the fruit to market. It can be said that the fruit to be shipped after this date will be that which has comparatively or wholly escaped the frost. That which was badly injured is now in a condition which precludes its possibility of shipment. ORANGES THIS YEAR AND LAST. From Garden and Forest, New York, Jan. 1. But 2000 boxes of Florida oranges have reached this city to Jan. 1st against 500,000 boxes during this term a year ago when the crop of that State was estimated at 6,-000,000 boxes. With half the crop frozen on the treesthe season closed abruptly early last February; whereas previous season Florida oranges were in our market nearly this year through—from September 20，1893，to August，1894. The few now offered cost $3 50 to $5 25 a box at wholesale，fully double the prices of last year. The main portion ofthe West India crop amounting altogether to 400，000 barrels，has already been sold in the United States. Jamacia oranges are now commanding prices so high as to make rather slow sales,$4 50 a box being sacked forthe best repacked fruit by wholesale dealers. The crop ofthe Valencia district，在Spain，is variously estimated at 3，000，000 to 6，000，000 cases，which contain 420 to 714 oranges each. This fruit has recently been in unusual demand here，大型 lots selling readily for $5 50 a box while Sicily fruit,rather immature and unseason,brought about one-third as much.The Sicily crop is said to reach fully 10，000，000 boxes.Car loads of navel and seedling oranges are now coming from California,and although some ofthe fruit is yet lemon-colored and tinged with green，它isofgood weightandqualityandpromiseswellfortheripefruitlateron.ThetotalproductioninCaliforniaisestimatedatthreeanda半tofourmillionboxes.

Riverside's first orange trees were planted by Shugart, Marob I, 1871, and it cost twenty-five cents a barrel for hauling water to keep them alive, as the first irrigating canal was not finished until some months later. The Agricultural Department at Washington imported several orange trees from Bahia, Brazil, in 1873, and a couple of orange trees, budded, from the Brazilian stock, were sent to Mrs. L. C. Tibbets of Riverside, from which sprang the famous Washington navel, the main source of Riverside's widespread reputation as an orange city. The naval orange is morely an effort of nature to produce twin oranges, but one of the twins aborted, merely surviving as a protuberance in the blossom end of the orange, a little kernel enveloped in the skin which closely resembles the human navel in appearance. The tree itself is semi-dwarf and has a few small thorns. When some of these oranges were exhibited in the spring of 1879 their beautiful color, peculiar form, and excellent quality attracted immediate attention and stimulated their production. The poor reharses from seedling oranges, the original orange raised from the seed, during the past season have still further stimulated navel production, so that many California seedling groves have been out back and grafted or budded with navel stock. The navel orange is smooth, of golden tint, fine texture, and satin skin, while its flavor is delicious, and it has the additional advantage of having few or no seeds. When the new orange gave California the palm over Florida at the Exposition at New Orleans in 1885, the future of the navel orange was secure, though its fame is not even yet at its zenith. The first Riverside grove that budded from Mrs. Tibbets's Washington trees was B. B. Barney's Sunnyside ranch, the fruit from whose nineteen acres, not all navels, however, sold for nearly $10,000 on the trees this year. The naval orange has come to stay, and is now so widely grown that it will soon comprise the greater part of California's shipment, taking the place of the seedling, which, though grown on a larger tree, is much smaller in size than the navel, though the seedling trees make up in number of oranges for what they lack in size. The navel is the earliest orange to ripen, the earliest specimens supplying the Christmas market, though it is not at its prime for toothsome eating before March. The varieties of oranges are increasingly numerous, but the highest price is not secured by the navel. The blood, a sort of freak from the Mediterranean countries, has that distinction. The reddish color of the pulp gives it its name, and the fact that it is not extensively raised accounts for its high price. The St. Michael, a favorite orange, was derived from the Azores, but the Mediterranean sweet is a fanciful name given a very desirable orange that ripens later, has a delicate flavor, and is nearly seedless. It originated from nameless trees secured from a Rochester, N. Y., nursery in 1870 by Thomas The State Commander writes us from Lincoln, Neb., as follows: "After trying other medicines for what seemed to be a very obstinate cough in our two children we tried Dr. King's New Discovery and at the end of two days the cough entirely left them.

Thus the phrase of the three estates, which had a meaning in France, became meaningless in England. For centuries past there has been no separate estate of the clergy; some of their highest members have belonged to the estate of the lords and the rest to the estate of the commons. Hence has arisen a common but not unnatural misconception, as old as the long parliament, as to the meaning of the three estates. Men constantly use those words as if they meant the three elements among which the legislative power is divided, king, lords and commons. But an estate means a rank, an order or class of men, like the lords, the clergy or the commons. The king is not an estate, because there is no class or order of kings, the king being one person alone by himself. The proper phrase is the king and the three estates of the realm. But in England, as I have already shown, the phrase is meaningless, as we have in truth, two estates only."—E. A. Freeman's "Growth of the English Constitution." Samuel J. Tilden's Umbrella. Abram S. Hewitt, who was a great friend of Samuel J. Tilden, one day brought into his office an old cotton umbrella, with a broken rib or two and a few holes. It could not have cost over 50 cents. He placed it in the accustomed corner, beside a fine $10 silk umbrella belonging to J. L. Haigh, his partner. When starting home in the afternoon he walked off with Haigh's umbrella, leaving his own, which Haigh had to use, as it was raining hard. On opening the old cotton affair Haigh noticed a piece of white tape sewed on the inside near the top, and on going to a light read, "Samuel J. Tilden, Gramercy park, New York." The next day he returned it to the same corner and said to Mr. Hewitt, "This is Mr. Tilden's umbrella you forgot last night." "Oh, yes," said Hewitt, rising and going after it, "I am very glad to get it back. Mr. Tilden is extremely careful about his umbrella." "But where is my silk one that you took away last night?" Haigh asked. "Oh, I don't know anything about that," was the reply, and that was all the satisfaction that Haigh ever got—New York Press. The Nervy Barber.

Tilden, Gramoroy park, New York." The next day he returned it to the same corner and said to Mr. Hewitt, "This is Mr. Tilden's umbrella you forgot last night." "Oh, yes," said Hewitt, rising and going after it, "I am very glad to get it back. Mr. Tilden is extremely careful about his umbrella." "But where is my silk one that you took away last night?" Haigh asked. "Oh, I don't know anything about that," was the reply, and that was all the satisfaction that Haigh ever got—New York Press. The Nervy Barber. I struck a nervy barber down in southern California once. You know they have earthquakes down there so often that they don't mind a terrestrial shake up any more than we do a thunderstorm. But for strangers the sensation of having the earth do a sand jig under you is far from pleasant. It makes you lose confidence in the stability of things. I was sitting in a barber's chair one day when the windows began to rattle and the floor to heave like the deck of a ship. The barber was a dago of some kind, but he had nerve. I started to jump and run, but he held my head down firmly and said: "Set pairfectly still, senor, or I might have ze meesfortune to cut you." And, ding me, if he didn't keep right along shaving, with the shanty rooking like a cradle, and he never even scratched me. But it scared me so my beard hasn't grown well since—Washington Post. Sunshine and Disease. It is rather surprising to be told that sunshine is not always a promoter of health, and that London fog may be a blessing in disguise. In experiments by De Renzi guinea pigs inoculated with tuberculosis died after 24 to 89 days when kept in glass boxes in the sunshine, but survived only 20 to 41 days in opaque wooden boxes. This makes it evident that sunshine is a material aid in combating consumption. In a later investigation by Dr. Masella, however, guinea pigs were inoculated with cholera and typhoid bacilli respectively, when it was found that previous exposure to sunshine increased the susceptibility to both diseases, while exposure to sunshine after infection so accelerated the progress of the malady that death occurred in 3 to 5 hours instead of 15 to 24 hours. That this was not due to increase of temperature was proved by cooling the boxes in sunshine by a circulation of water.—London Letter. FRED MAURER Fine Wines, Liquors and Cigars Call In and See Me.
