Latt .Saturday we tor oren the wrapper
from a handle if homo papers and read
therein some startling iicuh. There was a
tnryof ruin and destruction by flood; the
city wan not Cincinnati, nor Louisville, nor
Frankfort, but our own Ottawa. We rub
bed our eyes and read aguln .' " Mr. I-iane
Fredeuburj informs us that ho never wit
nessed sueh Hoods in lib loiii,' riklJuico
here. Twenty six years ago, when the Illi
nois bridgo went out, the water was 4 Inch

Inches at 8.30 o'clock." r Mr.Supp'sf.ird
is all under water. J 4m Stout's flue burn
moved out this morning, taking a bet-line
to Degen's stable, and then went crashing
uuder the bridge, a total r, reck.", "The
walk and woodwork to the1 bridge Is badly
sni'ished. On this side ftwdeis liro-i. shop
is a wreck, Dewej-'a foundry is nil HUiat-U'Jd
up, and Degen's barn badly ruined.
Btrawn'a lumber yard is under 10 feet of
water."
"TliO'l.'t paper of the bundle bore Unto
of Feb. lOih. and inmrnied us that " hun
dreds of persons were scattered u!l along
the banks yesterday viewing the aii'hta."
Now, on that particular day we were look
ing at tea roses instead of ice .'urges, ai1''
enjoying the (Uvor of ripe atrawberrba
in place of depiorlng thu ravages of tle
wild Fox and Illinois. Tba', date, too,
found us in a spot nlmoit an novel to un m
bers of our parly no un Art Loan. Th 8
spot was the cxti osiveaml tieitntifuloisrijie
grove of Jlr. George II. Norris. One of
tle furtv bad accMmpanleit Major Js'orris

times vulgarly styled a tart. . Our ride wi.s
a slow uiul traiKpiil nllair, for the pedate
mule considered hssto beneaih I isdignity,
but as thu mcruliig under the shaded pines
waa decidedly pleasant we sulfi red him to
select bis own pace. At last a gate optnal
before us, aixi when It had closed wo found
our path winding down through tiie heart
of the grove la Hie fruit house on the lake.
There were orange trees to he rijtht, to the
left, before, behind us, und all were loaded
with fragrant white bloMSoma. Nothing
more lovely than an orange flower ever
Lung from the branch of a tree, and when
this delleuto stainlessly white vision o
beauty duplicated over and over for mil
lions ot turns shines out at you from
among the richest of gbwsy green lenwa.
the scene is a strange and attractive one to
northern eyes.
Not until wo bad reached the fruit bouse
did the blosioms give any place to tin
riponed fruit, for Iho season was nearly
over and only 100,000 oranges remained to
bo gathered. Major IS'orris becau to gath.
er h's harvest a little later than tbo farm
ers ot La Salle began to busk their com
themiddleot November; but, tinlike them,
he has taken three months to complete the
task. The crop, however, is not a small
one. Major N. ships this year 1,100.0110
oraugtis, representing a very desirable in
come of $20,000. JSut the. Major's grove
is still behind tho Harris gr-.ve, near Pa
latka, whiob during this year has enriched
its owner, according to report, with the no
ble sum of $50,000, and uext year will
prove a regular bonanza 1 100,000.
Otir meditations on' the pleasure nnd
profit of an orange grme were brought to
an abrupt stop by tho appearance of the
packing htuw, and soon we were deep in
the mysteries of orange wrapping nnd
packing.

porting stem, but is carefully cut and
laid in a basket. This basket when full
finds its place among other baskets in a
cart, and thus reaches its destination. Ar
rived at the packing house, the basket is
emptied on an inclined plane formed of
lata, so arranged that the oranges act on
Darwin's theory and make a selection of
the fittest that is, the small oranges fall
Into boxes prepared lor fruit of their size,
the medium ones into boxes for medium
oranges, and the large ones seek their natu
ral companions. From these baskets the
fruit is transferred to its proper racks, and
the wrapper Is ready for lu rtisu. On her
