'‘That has been my business for many

means to be a
COFFEE PLANTER IN INDIA.
In the first place, you must understand
that the refreshing rains which water the
vegetation of this country every fe w days
are unknown in India for months together.
Drought is the great enemy with which ali
agriculturalists are forced to co itond. This
atmo pberic conditi n is the greatest ob
stacle with which we have to battle and it
has made India the most [ rolific country In
the i oral in the master of inventing and
perfecting all sorts of irrigating processes.
11l tua: one particular at least we easily
lead all other civilized countries to-day.
Coffee p ants, or trees, as they may very
proptrly be termed, are planted five feet
apart in each direction. Everything has to
be do eby hand. There is no suen thing
as lal or-saving machin ry known in con
nect, on n itii the business. Its use would
be impossible. The tops of the coffee shrubs
are cut out t force them to shoot out
b‘ rizontaliy, instead of into th 9 air. But
tho coffee bushes on a plantation
are not the only adjunct
of the business which requires cultivation.
On account of the drought and the torrid
su s, every me i of tue plama.ion mu-t be
fully protected by shade trees. Where this
is not done, the fruit shrivels up and be
co rei worthless without ripening. Exper
ience has taught us in India that the only
really de-iiabl3 trees for shade purp- o -
are the silver-leafed variety. The
rav <f me sun seem to penetrate all others
and tlelaborc f cultivating them is was ei.
Me generally shade our coffee plnntat.ons
with part or all of the eighteen or twenty
varieties of fig trees id genous to the coun
try. Where t ese trees are not properly
] catei ti ev must be plan ed and cultivate ■<!.
So branches are allowed within 25 or SO
feet of t e ground, and annual trimming
and pruning of both the coffee trees a id
tb r big trees which sh.de them are abso
lutely nects ary. You can and mbtless form
sane idea of the im nense amount of la ior
trbjph t is process entails. These is no
nioLj beautiful sig'it, however, thi i a prop

not the case, coffee would be a luxu.y
which few would be abb to afford.
“What does the coffee Derry resemble be

asked.
Mr. Arderson smiled.
“I ftar jou would have some difficulty in

IT ALL COKES FROM TIPS.
The magnate of the h tel baggage de
partment makes his money by “tijs.” The
gue-ts tip the under porters "for attending
to their baggage and carrying it to their
rooms, and tne underlings then hands the
tip over to the head porier. Ti.e important
functionary pocketi the money and with a
smirk thinks of the latest fa 1 in household
furniture, and ho.v a few silver trappings
would look on his fast-going span. A head
porter of one of tue large Philadelphia
hotels inadvertently admitted yesterday
that his positioubrough him a clean $4,000
a year above thecostof his family enpenses,
besides erabli g him to pay off his men,
who receive $1 a day and board at the
hotel.
WHERE TIPS ARE NOT ALLOWED.
“There are several head porters in this
city who have become as ricn as the well
known head porter of the Palmer house at
Chicago, who was recently discharged by
his employer,” continued" tho loquacious
baggage custodian above referred tc.
“Didn’t you hear about that case? Well,
Potter Palmer, the proprietor, was one day
spooling his horse along one of the drives
at Chicago when someone attempted t >
pass him. Ic was tho had po: ter, John, of
his hotel. Tne day after Palmer
c .lied his bead porter into his office
and asked him where he
hired his horse. With a glow of pride the
porter answered that the horse was his own.
The proprietor kuew that he had estab
lished a rule that the employes in his hotel
should accept no tips, and that the head
porter could not make such a dis lay with
out having made his money in tns way.
An iuves.igation of tho case was made, and
Palmer found out that the man was ac

mediately discharged him. The Palmer
house is the only hotel ia £uis couu ry tuat
I kuow of where tippiug the porters is not’

A FORTUNE OF $125,000 SAVED.
The head porter then dropped into a rev
erie., and after a few moments red ction
suddenly aroused himself and exclaimed:
“There’s old John Carl, the former head
porter of tue Colonnade hotel, who died
three years ago. Ho held his position for
nearly fourteen years, during which time
he amassed a fortune of over $125,000 by

A BANKER AND PROPERTY OWNER.
There is Frank Mclntee, who now helps
the ladies out of their carriages at Straw
bridge & Clotbier’s establishment. He was
head porter for fifteen years at the old St.
Cloud hotel. Mci utee is a wealtny man,
and he made his money when he was a head
porter. I’ll wager he is worta anywhere
between $56,003 and $61,000. He owns a
number of houses and has a big bauk ac

WHi|W HOLZ3AY HI X
He Lay Concealed In a Trackless Forest
While Women drought - im Food.
From the Milwaukee Sentinel.
Up in Northern Wisconsin taere is a vast
wilderness extending north to Lake Supe
rior for a distance of 20J mil -s. Here ami
there a little opening or a lumber camp
b oaks the monotony of fores', st roam ami
lase, but for the most part there is almost
an impenetrable maze of underbrush,
shaded by forest trees se: close together, it
forms a labyrinth wherein the iuexpo-;
rieuceu traveler could easi;y get lost, and
only his whitene 1 skeleton, found perhaps
months afterward, would tell the story of
his deatn in the solitude of the vast forest.
It was in this, jungle that the lone higu
wayman, Reimund Hofahay, managed for
nearly live montns to elude scores of armed
men in pursuit at the he-Is of bloodhounds,
aud at freq ,e it intervals sally forth in
quest of plunder, now robbing a train and
now stopping a stage c ach. He was as
much at home in the woods as a fish is in
water, aud it is doubtful if he would have
been caught at ail if he had not ventured
beyond his happy hunting grounds. It is
not generally known, but it is a fact,
that Uncle Sam had a large force
of men in the woods for weexs
looking for the highwayman. Once tey
trailed him almost to his hiding place. They
were armed with Winchesters. As they
caught sight of him he became a are of the
proximity of his pursuers. With a snout of
defia ce tie swung his white slouch hat iu
the air and plunge i iuto the woods. The pur
suers pressed after him, but tne highway
man had disappeared as completely as
though the oarih uad swallowed him up.
The i.en bad had abundant opportunity to
send a volley of rifle bahs at the fugitive,
but, as they afterward explained, none of
them dared risk killing h.m, for fear it
might not prove to be the right man after
all, and because his capture seemed almost
certain anyhow.
Iu the earlier part of Holzhay’s career as
an outlaw all his operations were confined
to the immediate vicinity of his borne at
Pulcifer, iu Shawano county, and he would
always hurry back to town so as to divert
susp.cion from himself. To a Sentinel re
porter who visite 1 him in his jail quarters
at Bessemer a few days ago, he narrated
wit a great glee now, on one occasion wh-n
h robbed a stage coach a tew miles away,
he mingled with the crowd toat was ex
citedly discussing tne robnery, and when a
posse wa> started out to pursue tho daring
highwayman he was made o e of the party
and given a rifie with which to hunt him
se. f.

cess in avoiding capture when a hundred

men and a dozen blood o nds were after
him, was duo to his remarkable knowledge
of woodcraft and the aid f bis frien is in
tho-e woods. He knew the great nortuern
wilderness as well as ail East Water street
hackiuau kno > s the .treets of Milwaukee.
1 hat tie hud some hiding place in the woods
is regarded as certain, but all efforts to
bump uim as to the location of the spot
have proven futile. When close nresned he
would go to it, and doubtless friends br. ugbt
him provisions while he was secreted there.
Once wueu Sii * iff Foley of G gebic pur
sued him with bloodhounds, he waded down
a creek tor a distance of three miles, and
thus put the bloodhounds off the scent..
“It was a good thing you did not find
me,” he has sin e said to tho sheriff. “If
you bad, you would hive become a box of
cold meat, or else you would have had my
corpse to carry to town. One of us would
have died.”
Investigation has thus far failed to dis
cover detini ely who took prov.sions into
the woods to the robber, bu' it is a fact that
the famdy of the girl to wean Holzhav
was attached was kept under aimo-t c m
siant surveillance during t e last, fow weeks
that be was at large. Detective Harriman,
of the Central Company, who went to
Shawano a few days ago to look up Holz
hay’s connections, says that the girl is a
sort of da.hing wild Wes'ern Queen, who
can handle a rifle like an expert, having
acquired the use of firearms under t e
tuition of H Izhay. Her sister can shoot as
wll as hersolf. They live in a log cabin in
the woods witn their parents. Taeir father
is well known in that part' f the country as
a formerly reckless character. Once he
went to Shawano and attempted to “run
the town. D. H. Pulcifer was the mayor
aud subjected tho be.ligerent fellow to
heroic treatment. M eting him in tho
street he knocked him down and nearly
choked the life out of him. The mother of
the two girls was one cf tho quartet of
you g women who nettled yi t ie community
when it wis a wild settle neat of a fo>v 1 g
houses. They were kuown as the Robiu
horzo girls.
Holzuay’s parents do not live in this
country. When be came to this country at
the age of 15, seven years ag 0, ho lived for
a while at Fort Howard with his uncle,
Chris Schwartz, a well-to-do German, but
did not stay t ere long, going to the h mo
of his uncle, Oscar Schwartz, a mill-owner
at Pulcifer. There, up to two years ago,
his principal occupation soe:ns to have l>ee 1
to read dime novels, and it is said that he
read 360 of them, most of them being
found in a pile in his room at his unci
after he took to robbing trains
and coaches. Two years ago be went
1. 1 Montana and became a cowboy, iiis am
bitio 1 seemingly running entirely in the
di ection of becoming a frontier hero or
utlaw. When he came back ho said little
about his experience, but theri wore stories
afio it t at he kills i a 111a 1 in Montana and
fled. At any rate it was observed when he
returned to Shawano that he would never
sit with his back to a door, and around
tho camp fire he always look a position
where he could command a view of every
man in the party. He bad never acted iu
that manner before.
Those who have seen the juvenile Jesse
Ja nes, includi g the authorities at Besse
mer, have home to tho conclusion that he
is crazy ou the subject of dime-novel hero
ism, having read so much trash of that sort
that his mind has becomi affected by the
tales of adventure. He says that he turned
robber mire for the fun of the thing than
ihe money there was in it. Ali that he re
grets is that ho was takenalivo.
“I wouldn't mind,” said he a few days
ago, “to bj shot deid, a id I wouldn’t dread
being ly .che t as much as I do being im
prisoned. I have but one wish and that is
to have my hands free and a revolver iu
each < f them. I would never be taken
al.va again, I can tell yon. If ever I get
out the first thing I’U do will bo to kill the
men who captured mo at Republic. If 1
could kill them I would die happy.”
GEYSERS SPOUT TO ODHER.
The Mishap to a Chinese Laundryman
Turned to Account.
From the New York Star.
Early one morning, a few years ago, a
Chinese laundryman pitched his tent close
beside one of the geysers in the Yellowstone
National Park, and supnlied himself with
hot water fio.n the spring, thus saving him
solf the trouble of setting up a boiler and
building a fire. During the day he acci
dentally dropped a bar of soap
into tho s;.eaai:ng geyser, anu la a
few minutes there was a rum
bling, a roar, an outburst of steam and
a er, amt the tent and Chinaman were
lire ally “blown up.” The scalded celestial
did not stop running until ho reached the
hotel, and he was then too thoroughly
frightened for uttera ce. Since then it has
been almost impes ibid to i nluco a China
man to remain ii the vicinity of the geys rs.
But the accident 1 discovery that age --er
could bo provoked into spouting out of its
time has been tur ed to account by some ot
the guidet aud soldiers in t ;e park, and the
result is that some of the wonderful springs
have become very irregular in their action,
and there is a possibility that they will
coase to spout altogether.
There are seventeen largo geysers in the
upper basin, and some of them at regular
intervals send up streams of water fro.n 10
to 30 feet in circumference to a bight of 150
and 200 feet. As tourists rarely remain at
this spot more thin twenty-four h >urs,
they, of course, want to see one oi the huge
geysers play. Unloss they arrive on the
opp irtune days, the only geyser they are
likely to see is “Old Faithful,” which
spouts every sixty-five minutes. But to see
tho other geysers snout is tho event of the
trip, and in this matter the ss-istance of
the soldier who is placed on guard to pre
vent tourists from despoiling pubiic prop
erty is requested.
At every point of interest the tnnrist
find- a soldier watching his footst ps. This
espionage is to prevent va dais ami
“crank.” from scrawling their names on
tho rocks, and to stop the relic fiends
f om and -facing tue beautiful rock formations
that surround the gevsers. But these
fellows hive learned about the accident
which befell the Chinaman and his field
laundry, and many of them will undertake
to make a geyser spout, even if it be not its
oxhibiiion day. ft
The initiated tourist hands to one of these
guardians a five-do!lar note. The soldier
slices a bar of soap into thin pieces, wraps
the mass in a sheet of paper, and while
walkin g around the geyser to see that no
o ie defaces the rocks, turows the paper of
chipped soap into the steaming spring.
Then he retires, and he aud the tourist
await developments. In from half an hour
to au hour tbe spring begins to spout,
its action being forced by the chemicals in
the soa .
Soaping the geysers makes them irregu
lar, and finally they oecome extinct. Tne
Bee Hive ceased playing last September on
account of the soaping process. It was a
very fine geyser and the eruptions were
grand. The virtue of soap was again tried
last week, and with success. Just as the
s outing began I saw two trusts and a
soldier emerge from behind Iwne trees a
short distance away and run to a point us
near the geyser as they Jared to go. This
sp utiug was a surprise to all save the in
itiated, especially os there is a little “indi
cator” geyser i.ear by that spouts as a
warning that the larger one is about to
play. As the visitors did not also treat the
little geyser to soap it did not play.
The forcing of the water to the surface
by chemical means before the periods flied
by nature destroys tho regular flow. The
volume of water thrown out becomes
smaller, and tho grandeur of the spectacle
is diminishing. Fi ially tne natural forces
wide n create the spectacle become disorgan
ized and the geyser ceases to be a geyser.
Thus one of the greatest attractions of tue
Yell jwstona Park is in danger of extinction.
