The Destruction of the Belair
Sugar House.
By the desteuction of the Belair
Sugar House by fire on the night of m
Thurshay Mar~ h 18 and the morning of
March 19, Plaquemines Parish hae lost th
one of its land-marks. The Sugar House
was an immense establishment having in
teen enlarged just before the civil war r
by Henry Doyal then owner, made he
to make refined white sugar. The di
sugas was opade in loaves, the loaves do
broken up, making what was .then
known as crushed sugar. The proper
ty was bought by the firm of Dymond h
and Lally in 1868, Mr. Dymond acquir
ing Mr. Lallys interest in 1870. He h
later organized the Belair company in
whichhe was the chief stockholder and
has so continued,
The Sugar House will not probably
be rebuilt this sesaon and the present d
cane crop whek is a large and promis
ing one will go to the Kenilworth fac- s
tory at Orange Grove. The Sugar i
House was a totaliloss and inclnded the i
Jow grade sugar and molasses in pro
cess usually worked off in July. The
outside cane crops usually delivered to P
the Belair factory will be duly cared
for by the managment.
'The Story of Johnny Appleseed. p
Jonathan Chapman, better known as t
Johnny Appleseed, was born in Boston, t
Mass., in 1770, and those pomological d
societies which do honor to his memory i
jave agreed on January 15th, as the
day of his birth, although the records r
do not establish the fact with certainty.
Swedenborgian missionary, hermit
and lover of his fellow man, Johnny t
.Appleseed's life was one of usefelness.
The first trace found of him in history 1
records him as being in the Territory of
Dhio in 1801 with a horse load of apple
seed, which he planted on and about the
borders of Licking Creek, the first or- I
chard thus otiginatedby him being now 1
rwithin the borders of Licking county.
For the next Afve years Chapman drops i
entirely out of sight. He is next heard
of in 1806, when he descended the
Ohio river with two canoes lashed to
gather, both eded with apple seed
from the orchards of western Pennsyl
vania.
With these two canoes thus burdened
Chapman passed down the Ohio river
to the mouth of the Muskingum. He
passed up the Euskingum to the mouth
of White Wowan creek, thence up the
Mohican into the Black FPrk to the
bead of navigation in the vicinity of
those counties which are now called
Ashlad and R~Ichmond.
Jt appears that this canoe voyage
,as the only one in which Chapman
' nade use of this mode of travel, for
ll therestof his tripe were made on
fot. The seed he obtained for no
thing from he cider dresses of the or
ehards of wetern Pennsylvania and he

is trail that led from Fort Duquesne wl
to Detroit,
In personal appearance Chapman lat
was small and wiry,with long dark hair ovr
a scanty board that was never shaved, toi
and keen black eyes. Generally, even in
in the coldest weather, he went bare- ed
footed, but would occasionaily make tir
himself a pair of sandals. an
His dress was generaily composed of a
cast off clothing which he had taken in inl
payment for young appletrees, but dur- ho
ing the latter half of his life he came in'
to the conclusion that all clothing be- fr
yond that demanded by the dictates of cr
decency was superfluous and wore only se
a coffee sack, with holes for arms and fr
head.
Among the Indian tribes he frequent- Si
ly met with in his wanderings Chapman
was treated with the courtesy and con
y sideration always shown by the red
men for those they deemed mentally of
afflicted or, as they phrase it,' under -
the care of the Great Spirit." h
lHis diet was as meagre as his cloth- tf
r ing. He believed it a sin to kill any j7
creature for food and in his brother- in
e hood with all created life was a worthy ti
e disciple of St. Francis, carrying the s(
doctrines of Emmanuel Swedenborg j(
to a length no other disciple of the n
mystic has advocated. He claimed to b'
have frequent conversations with an- t4
gels and spirits and always carried with g
him a few volumes of the swedish I
teachers works, e
As he had no tract soelety to furnish
him with literature and no private e
means with which to buy many books,
he hit upon an original plan for the
spreading of the Swedenborgian terch
ir ings. His few books he divided each e
e into several pieces which he. left with 2
people he interested in his mission. '
On his next trip he would collect the
e portions left on the former trip and r
,d distribute other portions, thus endeav
oring to spread the knowledge of
Swedenborg's writings as widely as
i. possible. By this plan he was enabled
as to furnish reading for several people at
n, the same time, but it must have been a
al difficult undertaking for some nearly
ry illiterate backwoodsman to comprehend
he Swedenborg by a backward course of
ds reading when his first instalment hap
y. pened to be the end of the volume.
it Probably it was an outgrowth of his
ny views of the sacredness of all animal
s. life that he held that apple trees should
ry be grown only from the seed and that
of all grafting and pruning were works
,le abhorrent in the sight of God.
he Whenever he found an animal abused
)r- he would at once purchase it if he could
w raise the money and give it to some
.y. more humane settler on condition that
ps it should be kindly treated. It frequent
ird ly happened that the long journey into
he the wilderness would cause the new set
o- tiers to be encumbered with lame and
ed broked down horses that were turned
yl- out to die. In the autumn Johnny
would make a diligent search for all
ued such animals and would take care of
per them for the winter, If they recover
Be ed he would never sell them, but would
th lend or give them away, stipulating for
he their good usage.
he No Brahman could be more concern
of ed for the preservation of life, even of
led insect life. Once he killed a rattle
snake and never ceased to repent his
ege action. At another time he put his

The Middleman. Ne'
1 Charles W. Eliot, former president C
of Harvard University, struck a note Doi
r that rang sweetly in many ears when
he declared in Chicago, the other day, Gri
- that both organized capital and organ- F
y ized labor are unethical. There is noth- Fri
ing very novel in the contention, it is
true, but the facts have not often been WI
e so clearly presented. The great ma- Ea
jority of the people of this country are i
neither capitalists nor members of la- Fo
bor organizations. They are unpro
tected middlemen and they are very W,
h generally paying the price for their
h lack of protection. Some of them are Br
employers of labor in a small way.
h More of them are employes. All, how- Us
ever, are being continually ground in
the mill between the upper and lower Ar
wheels of social organization. If cap
ital taxes them for the privilege of If
h existing, so does organized labor. Or
*h ganized labor gets an increase in wages; Di
capital increases the price of its pro
e ducts correspondingly and the middle
id man pays the bill. It has often been
declared that this cost falls back, Li
f greatly subdivided, on the men who Ai
benefit by the increase in wages, but
a moments reflection is all that is need
ed to show that this is not true. It
would be true if all labor was organ
ized, but all labor, nor even a very con
siderable part of it, is not organized.
The men and women who write for this F;
newspaper, for instance, are not or
ganized. Farmers are not organized.
is Stenographers, confidential clerks, pro- Ir
al fessional men and women, office em
ild ployes generally, departmental mana- 0
at gers in big business enterprizes-these
and thousands of others whose brains
or their capital are not organized. They St,
ed "make good" in the face of the great
id est competition in the history of the F
ne world or-they fail. And they are con
at tinually paying tribute both to organ
ized labor and to organized capital.
ito The injustice of capital in its dealings
with labor and the injustice of labor in £
rid its dealings with capital-the vices of
ed both-work double injustice to these
middlemen. And they do less crying
a and whining than either one of the
of other two abused and abusing 'classes.' T

ld How the Other Half Lives.
There are many interesting facts re
n- garding cheap food in various portions
of of the earth. Berlin, in Germany, is
said to lead the civilized world in the
is way of cheap restaurants. There are
his many places where you may secure a
de- meal of horse flesh, bread and coffee I
es for twenty-five pfennig, which is about
re six cents. In the poorer parts of the
he city there are many little restaurants
where you can buy a meal for twelve
pfennigs, which Would be about three
cents. In some of these cheap restau- Di
rants there is a long table and no ddt
- chairs are to be seen, but there are and
long benches. Tin spoons are chained '
to the table, soup plates are sunk into
the table and the one who wants to eat
a meal comes in and sits down in front
of one pf these plates and lays his
three cents beside it. Usually a wo
Inan is in the kitchen, and in many of
of these places, the kitchen is a part of
the restaurant itself. As soon as you
have laid your money on the table, she
trots forward with a steaming hot ket
d* tle.of thick soup, although thin soup is di
O* sometimes served. She fills your soup M
plate with this hot soup and lays a er
. thick slice of black bread beside the in
plate and your dinner is complete. ol
This is certainly a cheap meal. There i
are many places in all our large cities
where a dime will provide quite a gen.
erous dinner, sometimes pot roast and o
a thick slice of bread and butter and a o
cup of coffee.

Sixty Acres of Figs.

Mr. Foley purchased his trees in
Texas, buying the yellow magnolia va- I
riety, which is said to be the best for
cannery pruposes. Interest in fig cul
