The Amount Devoured by Fastiy I-oving ; New Yorkers—Some Startling Figures. A great revolution has gone on in the manufacture and compounding of pie. No more the housewife carefully meas¬ ures out “a cup of milk, a spoonful of saleratus, a lump of butter, pinch of salt, three tablespoonfuls of sugar, four sliced apples and a little pure lard.’’ Today the dough is kneaded by steam and the ovens are vast and hot breathed caverns. In the great kitchen of the modern pie factory are numbers of immense copper kettles surmounting brick ovens, and fat male cooks stir the savory masses within. On little tables around the room are dozens of wooden tubs holding the linings for thousands of pies. Then the busy bakers take the dough, and before the oven door with deft and rapid touches press it into the shape of the embryo pie, into a pan and a line of pies is soon pass¬ ing into the oven’s mouth with wonder¬ ful celerity. The ordinary ovens used will hold about HC0 small pies and the temperature required is graduated with remarkable skill. New York, of course, produces and eats more pies than any city in the world, although its per capita consumption is eclipsed by Chicago, Boston and Philadel¬ phia. There are eight or ten large fac¬ tories dealing exclusively in pies, and be¬ tween 500 and 000 bakers also make them. The largest factory is on Sullivan street, and its output of pie is something awful to contemplate, and when one thinks of the number of churches and schools the money spent for pie would build, it is a question if the people should not stop and ask, ‘ *'Whither is this awful habit carrying us?” In a year or two the pie habit may r;uik with the curse of drink and evils of tobacco as a never failing fountain from which debating so¬ cieties and Ivceums can draw topics to argue on. One of the foremen in the factory on Sullivan street said: “In cur establishment we turn out every kind of pie so far discovered, but there are certain kinds that are staple. These are apple, minoe, lemon, grape, raisin, plum, gooseberry, whortleberry, strawberry, peach, raspberry, pineapple, pumpkin and custard. Apple, mince, lemon, pumpkin and custard are the fa¬ vorites. All our material is the finest in the market, and we buy it in large quan¬ tities, always keeping our orders ahead.” “How much material do on use daily?” asked the reporter. “In a single day we use about 100 dozen eggs, 860 pounds of lard, 12 bar¬ rels of Hour, 000 quarts of milk, 2,500 quarts of fruit, and turn out about 7,000 pies, or about 50,000 a week and 2,600,- 000 a year. The output from the largo concerns in the city will amount to 35,- 000 pies daily, and the bakers will turn out about 40,000 more, or 75,000 a day, 525.000 a week and 27,300,000 per year, an average of about sixteen pies per capita. These pies cut into quarters the usual sizes outside of boarding houses would make 109,200,000 pieces. At an average of five cents—as some of the cheap restaurants charge only three cents, and tonier ones ten cents—this would make New York's annual pie bill $5,460,000, or more than we pay for public schools, or the fire and police de¬ partments, or send to the heathen. New York produces about one-thirtieth of the pie crop of the United States.” This last remark aroused a statistical vein in the reporter, and he figured until his brain was dizzy, and these are some of the results: In the United States there are eaten every day 2,250,000 pies; each week, 10,750,000; each year, 819,000,- 000, at a cost of $163,800,000, an amount greater than the internal revenue, and more than enough to pay the interest on the national debt and pensions. If the pies eaten daily were heaped one on top of another they would form a pie tower 193.000 feet, or nearly thirty-seven miles high; if laid out in line they would reach from New York to Boston. With the pie products of a year a tower 13,468 miles high could be erected, and stretched out they would cover a line 89,180 miles long, or sufficient to girdle the earth three times and let a Chinaman in Pekin chew at the last pie. These pies before eaten would weigh in a year 803,000 tons. Pie is a great institution, as these figures show.—New York Journal. DR.

Q. Word, S. H. Deane, H. C. Burr, J. D. Boyd and C, P. Newton met with Mayor Grantland in the cot ton factory office to hear a proposi tion for the erection of gas works. Messrs. Julius Lipman, Geo. O. Sco¬ field and Moses Kind, of the New York Contract Co., were present in the city and desired this opportunity lo state what they could do in tba way of furnishing town with better light. They are down in Georgia for the purpose of making a contraot with the city of Amerlcus, and the mayor of that city being absent for a few days in Florida, they concluded to put in a few days here, having had some previous conespondence with Mayor Grantland. They will remain over today. The proposition they laid before the members of the council, in an in formal way, was about as follows: They will put in sixty street lamps, which they think will be adequate to light up the main portion of the town for the present,each of sixteen candle power, and to burn during every hour of darkness, for $25 a lamp or $1,500. To do this they propose to put In a plant with $40,000 in stock and $40,000 in bonds, selling $100 worth of both stock and bonds lor each $100 in money. They do not require any of the stock or bonds to bo taken here, though they say they would prefer to-have citizens interest ed to the amount of $8,000 or $10, 000, so as to lake an intererst in the affair. After the works are estab lished and well started, they Jare to be ran entirely by Griffin parties, the New York gentlemen simply holding their interest os an invest ment. To private parties the cost would be one cent an hour for each burner turned full ou, the burner be ing arranged to consume just one foot an hour. There are other details of the plan, which are not worth elab oration until there is some prospect of it being adopted. The present plan of lighting the streeis—or rather of not lighting them—costs abont four hundred dol lars. There is no doubt that we ueed a better system, and on this the council is probably agreed; but as to what is the best plan to adopt, or whether we can afford at present to pay more, will bring on more talk. “Is there no balm in Gilead?

The Atlanta Constitution has done more towards shaping the politics of Georgia for the last dozen years than any other paper in the state. It is a notorious tact but few of its under takings have fallen through. There is a scheme now on foot by our co loesal friend to elect Major A.O. Ba con, Governor of Georgia, that is like ly to meet with some opposition both from thepressand people ol the state. There are a few things that will mill tate against the election of Major Bacon. It will be remembered by the people of Georgia that Major Ba con lias been a standing candidate for office for many years. Tt will be lurther remembered that the people have not chosen him to represent them in many years. But notwith standing the tact that he has been rel egated to a back seat, Major Bacon still patriotically offers to sacrifice himself on the political altar of his country. There is one dark spot on the fair escutcbeou of Major Bacon that no amount ot whitewashing and tariff reform bosh will remove. It is the fact of bis allowing his inordinate ambition to prompt him to run for Governor against Governor James S Boynton, and the foul slanders that he and his henchmen fulminated against that good man. The people can forgive many things, but when they see a man wantonly attacked and defeated by slanders, such as Major Bacon authorized, they reserve for themselves the right to sit down on such a mau. As it now stands, it I is the Constitution and Alajor A. O Bacon on one side and the people ou the other. The question is, will the Constitution elect Major Bacon or will the people elect a more worthy man? We wait the development of events. V Joyous Tyne-Fournier at Last.
