MAKE Cl RES LAMB VETERAN.
Soldier Jump* n< Sight of Reptile
and Regain* 1o of Hi* Leg.
From the Chicago Chronicle.
Shamrock, Fa., Aug. 26.—Solomon Hel
bert, an old soldier, who belonged to Com
pany I, Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania Reg
iment, discovered a blacksnake more than
seven foot long beside his chair yesterday
and he Is now rejoicing over it. He was
wounded in his left leg while In battle
and because of the dislocation of a smaii
bone, he has been unable to bond the limb
since. But shocked by the presence of
the reptile, he gave the crippled leg a
sudden twist and the bone slipped back
Into its proper position. He now has free
use of the leg.
This blacksnake which has proved a
benefactor to the old veteran Is believed
to be the same one that his grandson,
Willie Rice, while on a visit here, made
his playmate by feeding it coffee daily
out of a nursing bottle. The lad is only
2 years old, and, although some wonder
was expressed when he would have the
bottle refilled so often. It is now believed
the snake got a good share of the ooffee.
1t.% HIES IN DANGER FROM EAGLES.
Parmer* About Pond Eddy, N. Y„
Alarmed by Raid* of Rig Rlrd*.
From the New York Sun.
Port Jervis. Aug. 19.—For the first time
in many years two eagles made their op
pearanco in the neighborhood of Pond
Eddy, Sullivan county, New York, two
weeks ago. They have been seen since on
several occasions, but it was not till late
ly that any trouble was expected from
the big birds. About a week ago John
Van Tuyl, a farmer living a short dis
tance from Pond Eddy, had two young
lambs carried away by the eagles, and
since then his hires! man, Peter Smith,
lost a valuable hound pup in the same
manner. Other farmers have become
alarmed, fearing their babies, left play
ing in the dooryard, may become the prey
of the birds. The result is the young chil
dren are not allowed out of doors unless
accompanied by a member of the family.
Several attempts have been made to shoot
the eagles, and an organized effort will
be made among the hunters of the neigh
borhood for this, purpose.

"I have used three bottles of Dr.

writes Mr. A. F. Novotny, of New
York, N. Y., (Box 1437). I feel that
I am in need of no more medical as

medicine I had a regular consumptive
cough, of which I was afraid, and
everybody cautioned and warned me
concerning it. I was losing weight

all, have gained eight pounds in

Illnannin (irowins In One of the Coun
try** Formhlnhle Industries.
From the Now York Sun.
The exhibition of the N Society of Ameri
can Florists at the Grand Central Pal
ace, which ended on Friday night, did
much to impress visitors with the fact
that great advances have beert made by
American florists in recent years. The
importance of floriculture was also indi
cated by some of the odd facts made pub
lic.
The Society of American Florists and
Ornamental Horticulturists was organized
in 1884. and ever since its officers and
members have been collecting facts and
figures for the use of florists. The most
recent figures are those compiled by Prof.
B. T. Galloway of the Bureau of Vegetable
Pathology and Physiology at Washington.
They show that there are not fewer than
9,000 commercial florists’ establishments
in the United States, end that these flor
ists use 22,500,000 square feet of glass. New
York state alone has 1,200 florists’ estab
lishments, which use 4,500.000 square feet
of glass. Illinois has 800 establishments,
with 4,250,000 square feet of glass. The
estimated value of all the establishments
in the United States is $11,250,000, and of
their total annual output $27,500,000.
Huil the Florintn* Enemy.
It isn’t hard for anybody to see that
the question of glass is a serious one with
the florists. The greatest enemy they
have to meet, not excepting even the de
structive bug. is the hailstone. Thousands
of feet of glass are destroyed every year
by hailstorms, and one result of the found
ing of the Society of American Florists
has been the establishment of the Flor
ists’ Hall Association of America. This
association lias an aggregate insurance
upon 13,025,762 square feet of glass, more
than half of all the florists’ glass in the
country. Last year the association had
to pay for more than 70,'XiO square feet
of glass which had been broken by hail.
Concerning the growth of the industry as
measured by glass. President E* M. Wood
of the society said in his address opening
the convention:
“As an illustration of the remarkable
growth of floriculture and horticulture,
we may instance the great West, where
in some localities it has increased in pop
ulation in twenty years 40iTper cent. The
increase of glass in the same time for
floriculture and horticulture is over 1,100
per cent. No one could have foreseen
this enormous and phenomenal growth.”
Fortiinos in Flowers.
Some‘interesting estimates of the value
of different cut flowers annually sold were
made by C. VV. Ward of Queens, one of
the prominent members of the soeiey.
‘‘The estimated value of the cut flowers
annually sold is divided up about as fol
lows: Roses, $9,000,00); carnations, $4,000,-
(kO; violets, $750,000; chrysanthemums,
$300,000; and miscellaneous, $1,250,000. The
estimated number of roses annuallly sold
is 100.000,000; carnations, 100,000. OX; violets.
75.O00.CO0; total, 275,000,000. I estimate the
capital invested in carnations alone at the
present day at $2,000,000. The total annual
sales of cut flowers in New York city is
$3,000X00. ami of plants, $1,500,000.”
Of the cut flower part of the florists'
business. President Wood said:
Defense of the Floral Price List.
“An erroneous idea has gone abroad that
cut flowers at some seasons of the year
are exorbitantly high, but an analysis of
the prices for the year will find that the
average is lower to-day than the grower
ought to receive. Adverse criticism is oc
casionally made, which is heralded abroad
by the newspapers and periodicals, that
extravagant prices for flowers are charg
ed by the growers for the holidays. These
criticisms are made by those who know
little or nothing regarding the cost of cut
flowers. It is the one season of the year
in which the grower hopes to receive a
remuneration for his efforts. He is
obliged, oftentimes, to lose a crop of flow
ers for which' he received nothing, in or
der that he may obtain the desired crop
for the holidays, when there is a great de
mand for them. Did he not do this, not
over half of the flowers could be offered
for sale in the holidays. The high prices
which we hear of are only for the few
flowers which are called exhibition flow
ers. If the grower depended for his in
come upon this class of his product, there
would not be a commercial foot of glass
in existence for the growth of cut flowers.
It is to the vast volume of second, third
and fourth-class flower*, and that demand
which comes from the middle us well as
the poorer class of people, who never pay
high prices for them, that the grower, and
in large measure the florist, depends for
his success. Those who want, and will
have the very finest of flowers, selecting
only the perfect in form, foliage, size and
coloring, and who are thoroughly conver
sant with these qualities are willing, ns
they ought to be. to pay the price which
is demanded for them.

been filed in th Supreme Court by C. A.
Mount joy, of No. 149 Broadway. Henry
L. Scheuerman. of Hoadley. Lauterboeh
& Johnson, is Mr. Wassermarm's attor
ney. He says for his client that Mr.
Steiner has unquestionably lost his mon
ey and wants it again.
This niooth little game of draw' was
played in the snicking room of the New
York on her voyage to this port from
Southampton in October, 1899. Steiner,
Wassermann. the actor, the theatrical
manager, and Dr. Wilson, of Franklin,
l*a.. we:e the players.
During Steiner’s second deal he acci
dentally turned up one of Goodwin s
caro.v There was a difference of opinion
as to the prop r thing to do.
”VVe’ll use Hoyle’s opinion.’* suggested
Mr. Stein*r. And the others said:
‘‘All right.”
Thin Mr. Steiner attempted to quote the
authority.
“If a player discards,” he said, “and
draw's fresh cards to his hand, and while
serving him the dealer exposes a card,
the dtalcr must place the exposed card
upon the bottom of the pack and deal to
the remaining players and come back
last lo the player to whom the exposed
card was dealt and deal him another card
for the one turned u:>.”
“You’re wrong,” said Gocdwin.
Betting on n Rule in Hoyle.
“Twenty-five dollars says I’m right,” re
plied the Alabama man promptly.
“Taken!” cried the actor, and the money
W'as placed in Mr. Wassermann’s hands.
“I’d like to lake a hundred that.” was
Mr. Wilson’s bid. Mr. Steiner promptly
placed SIOO more in Mr. Wassermann’s
hands, and the Pennsylvania man did like
wise. x
“So w'ould I.” remarked Marx. But
Steiner hesitated at this. So Marx offer
ed a tempting bait.
“I’ll bet you SIOO to $10,” he said.
And the money was added to that al
ready held by Mr. Wassermann. They
parted at the pier, and afterwaid Mr. Was
sermann, according to the plaintiff, de
cided that, "according 10 Hoyle, if a play
er discard and draw' fresh cards to his
hand, and while serving him the dealer
exposes one or more cards, the dealer must
place the exposed card upon the bottom of
the pack and give to the player a corre
sponding number from the top of ihe pack
before serving the next player.”
(rooihvfn, Wilson and !>lnrk .loin.
Then, it is alleged, Mr. Wassermann paid
the money to Goodwin, Wilson and Marx.
Mr. Steiner sues under the stakeholder’s
act, which provides for the recovery by a
bettor of any money deposited by him with
a stakeholder in a betting transaction.
The rule In Hoyle, which seems to apply
lo the case, says (hat “S-hould any card be
exposed by the dealer in giving out the
cards or be blown over by the wind before
the player has touched it, such card must
not be taken, by the player under any
circumstances, but must be placed with
the discards on the table. A player whose
card is exposed in this manner does not
receive a card to take its place until nil
the other players are helped. The object
of this rule is to prevent a dealer from
altering the run of the cards in the draw.”
A BRA\D-XEW SWINDLE.
Chemist Send* by Express “Valua

• hr.
From the New York World.
fit. Paul, Minn.. Aug. 36.—Express com-
I anies here have discovered a clever
swindle, which has relieved them of a
lurge amount of m ney and has been
shrouded in mystery for a long- time. The
man who is being locked for is known
Ly so many nrmes that it has not yet
been found out what his right name is or
who he is.
The swindler is a chemist. Special de
tective officers -who are in this city have
at ast found iho secret .4 hs opera
tions.
He (would appear in New York at one
of (he lccai exprrss effl es with a pack
age valued at SIO,OOO, which he would or
der sent to some part of the United
Slates He then foil werl the pickage to
the place of is destination, where under
a different name he would appear as tho
consignee to whem the package was sent.
The package is looked for. but, notwith
s arding the fact that it is registered on
the books, it is not to be found. The send
er then returns to New York, where he
presents claims for loss of valuable prop
erty sent in care of the company.
It has betn discovered that the box con
tained a corsumptive chemical prepara
tion which so entirely destroys the cov
ering of the parcel ard everything in it
that rot a trace is to be found. This has
occurred a number of times, and from
certain indications it would appear that
he is net alone in his operations, as a
number of timet the package has been
called for by a woman.
A messenger wffio has been connected
with the affair by having one of Ihe par
ce s in his csr* 1 said to-day that the work
of the swindler is causing great havoc at
many local express stations, where the
t mployes have been suspected of having
committed robbery.
MAKES COIRTIYG ILLECAL.
Novel Ordinance Passed by Town
Conncil of Pern, 111.
From the New York World.
Peru, 111., Aug. 26.—The City Council
has Just passed this ordinance:
“Whoever shall in saidi city congregate
on or upon any of the streets in the city
of Peru for the purpose of courting, mak
ing love or spooning or carrying on court
ship, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
and shall be fined not less than $3, nor
more than SIOO for each offense.”
Mayor Hoerner snysf ‘‘l do not oppose
courtship when it is conducted in on or
dinary manner. (But when it is carried
on indiscriminately and in a style offen
sive to the public, I believe it, like all
other nuisances, should be abated. The
ordinance whl, I think, bring about the
desired result.
“Pern citizens will not be annoyed by
lovesick and sentimental persons or nny
other species of suffering humanity If It
Is in. the power of the Council anel myself
to prevent i.”
Fourth street Is the city's main thor
oughfare. Staid and conservative citi
zens residing on it have gone along after
9 p. m. not daring to lift their eyre from
the povement, and fumbling distractedly
for handkerchiefs to hide their blushes.
Young men and their sweethearts have
claimed the street for their own, nnd as
soon as darkness fell have swarmed so
thickly In its busiest half-mile that no
unattached citizen dare walk there for
foor of colliding with them. For months
the people of Peru have been embar
nmecd ar.d irritated nt the sight of this
extensive and Indiscriminate lovemaklng
on her main thoroughfare.

From the New' York Times.
Washington, Aug. 27. -Polio;wan
Claude D. Cl< mi nts has been tried by
the D strict Commissioners and dismiss
ed from the police force for conduct un
becoming a roliccman.
The charge is that Clements “Did en
ter th 6 premises 2 02} L street, north
west, while on duty, and that while there
he did accost a woman with whom he
was not acquainted and did attempt to
put a live crab upon her bock.
Maj. Sylvester, the chief of police, in
recommending Clements’ removal, made
this indorsement: “It is cl* arly proved
that this officer made an effort to place
a live crab on the brick of a person who
had spoken (o him nor accosted
him in any wise, in defiance of the rules
and regulations requiring that an officer
sha'l bo respectful and orderly in his
words and actions. Such uncalled-for con
duct on the par! of an officer, without
the slightest excuse, calls* for the se
verest penalty that can bo imposed by
th<* superintendent.”
Maj. Sylvester called the attention of
the cvTThmissioners to the fact that G. W\
Morgan was dismissed from the. force in
1894 for the same offense.
