A Great City’s Egg Supply. “About twenty-five years ago,” ue. said an old attendant in the big „ . 3 Famine rever is spreading m Washington Market, “several men made fortunes at catching frogs and sending them to market The hind legs were cut off, skinned, washed, and, after being mindly, salted, were sent away in barrels. Prices used to range from fifty to seventy-five cents for a dozen pairs of legs, and as sales were quick, 5 there was a pile of money in the occupation. - One old fellow, a blacksmith by the name of-Weld, down in Green- buse, Me., supplied all of New England for years. He lived by the side of very extensive swamps that were filled with wrigglers and cattails. The former furnished food for the frogs, while the latter gave them shade. I have seen bull frog-legs' that were as big as the legs of a chicken. “Old man Weld used to hire boys to kill frogs for him, giving them five or six cents a dozen. The frogs were so plentiful that many of the children earned good wages, even at that small price. Weld dressed the frogs, corned them and shipped them to Boston in barrels, like herrings. He kept up the bus iness for years, and, though he slew hundreds of thousands every year, the supply did not diminish at all. “By and by. prices went away down, and, as the old man had cleared about,8100,000 out of the scheme, he retired, built himself a fine mansion, and lived at his ease. He is the only man I know; of who got rich by catching frogs, but I have heard of several others.” ) When it comes to - eggs, figures fail. It" is necessary to speak of them by dozens. Last year 6,000,- 000 dozens of eggs were sold in the egg markets, 72,000,000 eggs all told. But that is nothing. Hun dreds of grocers get their eggs di rect from the country, so that it will probably be safe to say that New York and its vicinity con sume 1,000,000,000 eggs every year, as the egg men say they do not sell one-tenth part of the eggs used in New York. They are gathered from every where; some are raised right in the city limits, many across the river in Hudson - county, N. J., hundreds of thousands on Long Inland, and nobody knows how many within two hundred miles of New York city. They are packed in barrels chiefly for the marketj'and in box es—each egg in its own compart- ment-r-for family and grocery store shipment. The only availa ble figures are those of the mar kets, but the dealers say they do not begin, to represent one-tenth part of the consumption.- -New York Sun. Philanthropic and wealthy He brews are likely to be addressed from Philadelphia by the promo ters of a moyement now stirring in that city. .It is a quickening and extension of the Jewish Alliance of America, organized some years ago in" Philadelphia'to respond to the rush of Jewish exiles from Bussia and Boumania.

Beaders of the journal of Maria Bashkirtseff will b.o interested to learn that her- painting, “The Meeting,” has been purchased by the French government and placed in the Luxembourg palace.
