The Worst lllock In New York
.
It is the block called “the bend,” in
Mulberry street. Four-thousand prison¬
ers have been dragged out of this one
block in the last two years. Four hun¬
dred arrests have been made there in one
night. It is here that the crowds on the
sidewalks in the daytime are so dense
that no one but a policeman can make
his way through there without difficulty.
No one begrudges the police this distinc¬
tion, I may add. Here each side of the
Street, with its tall tenements, is duplicat¬
ed by a rear row of equally big hives, so
hat it is two streets, in reality, instead
one. Some cities that think them¬
selves important have no more popula¬
tion than this block. The bulk of the
people are Italians. They sleep in the
rooms, a score or more together—men,
women and children—heaped m like
cord wood. Those who are not Italians
are the foulest wrecks that rum can
make—men and women tottering on the
verge of tlio abyss, at the bottom of
which is the madhouse and the morgue.
“The bend” has often been described
and often will be. It is the sardine box,
the rat hole, the human sewer of the me¬
tropolis.—Buffalo Express.
Toads Imported from Austria.
In most districts of Great Britain toads
are moderately numerous; more numer¬
ous, indeed, than might be imagined, for
they are not animals that court publicity.
In the face of this it is rather surprising
to hear that toads are now being im¬
ported into this country from Austria.
They are packed in wooden boxes filled
with moss, and on their arrival fetch as
much as from $15 to $30 per 100.
Toads have long been an article of com¬
merce here; in most well ordered gar¬
dens the visitor will occasionally be
startled by a quaint apparition on the
pathway, puffing like an asthmatic old
gentleman, and the suburban market
gardeners and nurserymen very fre¬
quently have (’’em in their frames and
greenhouses and about their grounds.
But until recently our horticulturists
have been satisfied with the exertions of
the native toads in ridding them of their
slugs, grubs and noxious insects. It is
possible that the Austrian toad may bo
larger and more voracious than ours, and
this may explain the fact of its importa
fion.—London Globe?

THE HEATHEN CHINEE.
THE PACIFIC STATES WILL SUP¬

f'Ldidates John Sherman
and Ben Harrison.
Washington, Feb. 28.—[Special.]
If the Republicans in Washington
from the State of California know
anything about the political condi
tion of things at home, there are two
promintnt pentlemen frequently men
t ion eel an Presidential candidates
who (
may ns well call in their boom,
if they expect (he Pacific Slope States
to aid in their election. Tbe names
of these gentlemen are Senator John
Sherman and tx-Senalor Benjamin
Ha»rison. A look through the Con
gressional Record to day disclosed
the fact that in the first session of
the Forty seventh Congress. April
2o, 1882, Sbermau and Harrison
both voted against the passage of
the Chinese restriction bill. They
not only voted against this impor
tant meusure bo seriously affecting
the inteiestn of the people of the
Pacific States, but they voted against
all tbe amendments to make the bill
safe and strict in the prevention of
Chinese immigration. A leading Re
publican member of tbe House from
California told the Courier Journal
correspondent to day, that if either
Sherman or Harrison should be
nominated for President, they would
lose California by from fifteen to
twenty thousand majority. “There
is no use of talking,“ said he, “our
people will not vote for a man who
has not a straight record against Cbi
nese immigration. 4 *
Gov. Beaver, of Pennsylvania, is
credited with Presidential SBpira
tions, and the Pottsville Chronicle
claims (hat he is laying his plans to
turn up at Chicago as the dark
horse. Gov. Bsaver expects to be
one of tbe delegates at large, and he
is credited with the belief that there
will cornea crieis in the Chicago con
vention, when he may be mentioned
with a hurrah, as Gen Gatfield was
eight years ago.

MORRISON FOR VICE-PRESIDENT.
It Would be a Stepping Stone to the
Presidency In 1892,
Washington, Ftb. 28. —Col. Wm
R. Morrison is now regarded among
well informed Deroocms as the man
most likely to be given second place
on tbe ticket with Cleveland, No
man in the country could better
stand with Cleveland on the tariff
reform platform wuich will be adop
ted at S. Louie- Besides his tariff
reform record, Mr. Morrison has a
fine military history uud great per
gooai popularity in the West. His
district is right across the river
frem St. Louis—in fact, East St.
Louis iB part of it. He has more
friends in St. Lonis than in any otb
er city.
He will probably be renominated
for Congress just before tbe conven
tion meets. Col. Morrison is not a
candidate for the Vice 1 -Presidency,
but his friends believe that they
would advise him to take it as a
stepping stone to tbe Presidency n
1892. They feel that inasmuch as
Cleveland's election would be iusur
ed by Mr. Morrison's nomination,
tbe Democratic party would natn
rally turn to him next time, even if
be were not tbe very representative
of tariff reform

Mr. Ed. Huguemn, one of Macon's
most enterprising citizens, has en
tered largely into tbe pecan industry.
On Monday he will leave for bis
plantation in Leecoanty. to euperiu
tend the planting of about 75 acres
in pecans. He first expected to set
out tbe trees, but beiDg dKappoint
ed in receiving them, ben.M plant
tbe nnt itself. The expense of plant
ing and reaping will I <bt. He
obtained most of h ' pecans
from Texas at $1.CU It will
take sevetal busLels to plant tbe area
intended.
When planted from the nni, tbe
trees bear from 5 to 10 yean after
plant.ng. Tbe trees grow about 40
feet apart, 25 to tbe acre. They
bear about 100 lbs. to 'he acre, on
an average. Tbe nuts will sell from
20c to 60' per lb., according to
sweetness and quality- Granting
that tbe trees ODiy gow 60 lbs each,
a low estimate, that would make the
yield per acre 1,250 pounds, which
if sold at 20c, the minimum price,
would realize $250 per acre. But
$300 cau very readily be expected
per acre. That beats raising cotton,
we think-
But then, if desired, cotton can be
raised on the same land where tbe
pecans grow, as the bills or trees
are forty feet apart.
There are more than 60 varieties
of pecans.
Mr. Hnguenin will plant his pe
cans on land lying along the Coium
bus Southern road, and thus be eu
sily handled for shipment.
