The Clinton New Era, 1889-09-20, Page 7THIS HONEY CROP.
Th.e° Honey crop is everywhere
a. poor one this year, mainly on
coaunt of the early heavy rains.
;bile wet weather has pu•olonged
abloom of honoy.isoaring• planta,
has greatly hindered bees from
arh ng among them. Another
ause is not often thought of, aud
hat is the great number of work
ng bees caught in Armors while
edon, with honey and returning
the hive, falling tp the ground
d there•perishing. The life of
avarage honey bee is a short
at the best, but it is made
orter by a wet season. The
ecess of California honey grow -
0 is largely due to the fact that
e.State is full of wild honey-
aring flowers, and also that the
es work among thorn with no
r whatever of rain. Tbo Cali-
nia crop this year is also a fail-
s and what there is has all been
gaged by English dealers for
ipment to that country. Some -
w English merchants secure
slier information alout crop

firers from Catarrhal troubles should

THE EFFECT OF DUTIES.
The lumbermen, through their
association, declared themselves,
some time ago, in favor of unre-
stricted trade! with the United
States. Tho returns show that
during the last nine years, since
1880, they have sent nearly five
thousand million feet to the Amo-
rican market. Tho dirty on this
exportation has amounted in all
to ten million of dollars($9,9S2,
000)oe a little over a million a
year. Canada supplies about one -
twentieth of the lumber consum-
ed every year in the States. Tho
duty does not by any moans re-
present the whole loss inflicted
upon the Canadian lumbermen
through restriction. For, if the
duty was removed—it is $2 per
thousand feet—they would be able
to ship to the American market
a vast quantity of lumber which
now; as they express, it will not
bear any duty; that is, there •ie no
profit in shipping it while the tax
has tb be paid, the $2 eating up
up the margin.
It is the same with Agricultural
produce. Tho Canadian farmer
could do a far larger as well as a
much more profitable trade with
his American neighbor if the cus-
toms barriers were removed, for
the simple reason that stuff could
then bo sent to the market which
under the present circumstances
will not bear the duty. Water
freezes and becomes ice at 82 0
Fahrenheit. At 31° it is still
water, so that the difference of a
single degree of cold counts a
great deal. ,In like manner, the
difference of a few cents per bush•
el will often determine whether
an article can bo grown and sold
profitably or not. Tho indirect in-
jury done by the duty is almost
in all cases more serious than the
direct loss inflicts.

HUMORS OF TIIE TARING,
After two days' work by the
clerks of three or four depart-
ments of the New York Castorn
House, anti some incidental labor
on the part of the Deputy Collect-
or havi ng charge of dutiable
goods coming into the country
through the mails, Henry:
morn, of No. 37 Maiden Lane,
New York, was enabled, upon
payment of tin co cents duty and
• penalty of like amount, to re-
cover an article of personal.adoi n-
ment, that was -sent him by a
}mond in Germany, and ars ived
in New York on Augustif4th.
Tho article was a brass ring
valued at 12 cents, dutiable under
the customs laws for three' cents.
Why Mr Zimmern wanted a rima
of this material, or whether it
was a gage of hie early love, or
possibly an heirloom in his family,
Acting Collector McClelland doss'
not know. Tho only fact hetakes
official cognizance of is that the
ring camp inclosed in -a letter,
that it owed a duty of three cents
t the Government, and that, no
matter what might be the rerauli,,
that amount must be collected.
The amount of red tape through
which this innocent brass ring
passed before it reached its owner
is hard to specify. When the
deputy collector at the post office
discovered it in an envelope, he
and his staff of clerks had to fill
out seizure papers in quadrupli-
cate, reporting the fact to the
Collector. One of the clerk,, of
the latter had to acknowledge the
receipt' of the documents, send
copies to the Surveyor and naval
officer for their information, and
indorse upon the third an order
to the Appraiser to make an ex
amination of the seized article.
rho fourth copy was carefully
filed in the Collector's office for
future reference.
This was the work of the Col-
lector's office, but there was more
to bo done before the Government
could get its three cents, The
official in the seizure room had to
bo instructed in writing to turn
the ring over to the Appraiser ;
the Appraiser had to report the
result of his examination to the
Collector, and the latter had t°
acknowledge the receipt of the
report, and so finally when the
owner called for his property and'
planked down his three cents
there had begnleapended, accord-
ing to the opinion of experts in the
Custom House, at least $15 in

A Chicago despatch says : "Th
residents of Wauconda, a little
village in Lake couuty, a °few
miles from Barrington, a augur
of Chicago, are greatly wrought

tor of the Baptist church, the Rev

who have the hearty sympathy

became pastor of the Baptist
church at Wauconda several
months ago, Laving come there
from Toronto, Canada, bringing
letters of recommendation and in-
troduction from Baptist people.
He was well liked as a pastor,
and hasepronounced gifts as a pul-
pit orator. According to his own
story he has had a peculiar his-
tory. He was captured by thedi
Inans when only a babe, and
remained with them until he was
16 years of age, knowing nothing
whatever of his parentage, In
his 17111 year he took up the life
of a cowboy, becoming a most pro-
nounced type of the people- who
follow that industry,. taking:upon
bimself all their vices end charac-
teristics generally. About six
years ago he drifted to Toronto,
and became interested in the.Sal-
vaticu Army there. Ho was pro-
nounced a bright convert and
soon attained offieial rank. I1s
married ono of the sisters of the
Army, and some months subse—
quently both he and bis wife unit-
ed with the Baptist church. Tie
preached there for three or ft. tr
years, and then camp to Illinois,
locating at Waueonda, as stated
above. Hies wife became much
interested in Miss Tidmarsh, who
is a remarkably bright girl of
pleasing face and manners,: and in-
vited her frequently to hor home.
About six weeks ago Mrs Griffis
concluded that her husband wade
becoming altogether too intimate
with the young lady, and called
him to account for i -t. --She st-
eered several letters which hadm
been sent. by Miss Tidarsh to.

mise of rotor elation dest toyed
them. On Tuesday afternoon the
llev Gi i ais. went to Il it rington,
telling his•wife that he intended
making a visit to Chicago to ire

ORIENTnE L LP, 01 Jon FLOWER
This beautiful variety is grown by the.
Chinese, according to their ancient
custom, to blcom at the advent of their
New Year. It is highly prized and
called by them "Joss -Flow -a, or"Flow-
er of the Gods." The bulbs are speci-
ally grown by a method known only to
themselves, whereby they attain great
size and strength, insuring luxuriant
growth and 'remarkable profusion of
bloom, in a very short period. They
are generally flowered in shallow orna-
mental bowls containing water, the
bulbs being surrounded by bright color-
ed pebbles to prevent them from top-
pling over when in bloom. -
The flowers, which are borne in clus-
ters, on tall spikes, are white with a
golden yellow center, and deliciously
fragrant. The bulbs bloom in six to
eight weeks after planting,—The Steele
