Dow the. Bad Ar Prepared For th Cava
of Comniarea,
The clove tree it a uative of the Mo
lucca ialaoida and belongs to the fur
spread family of myrtles. It is a tall,
very handsome evergreen, with ovate,
oblong leaves aud purplish flowers, ar
ranged iu oorymha ou short joiutod
stalks The flowers are produced in
great profusion, and when they appear,
Which is at the begiuuing of the rainy
season, they are iu the form oi elongat
ed, greenish buds. These uuexpaudod
buds are the cloves of commerce, which
derive their name from the Spanish
word clavo, "a nail, " so called from
tho real or fancied resemblance of the
bud to a nail.
Sometimes tho clove fruit appears in
couiniorce in a dried state, under tho
name of "mother cloves " It has an
odor and flavor similar to cloves, but is
much weaker
The flower buds are beaten from the
tree aud are dried by the smoke of wood
fires and afterward by the sun. If the
buds remain on the trees, the calicos
gradually swell, the embryo seeds en
large and the pungent properties of the
cloves are to a great degree dissipated. .
Cloves cousist of two parts, a round
head, which is, in tuct, the flower rolled
up, inclosing a number of small 31a-

round the flower and form the flower
cup of the onripe scxi vessel. When
they are soaked for a short time in hot
water, the flowers soften and readily
nn roll, so that all of the parts may be
soon.
The entire clove tree is highly aro
matic, aud the foot stalks of the leaves
have nearly the same pungent quality
as the calyx of the flower. Philadel

O IL BelL a prominent merchant of
Liberty. Neb., told an interesting story
of bow a swarm of lightning bugs caus

two armies dnnug the late war.
"1 was a member of the Twenty-fifth

Rochester was robbed by hnn. Tho
man's honse was ou East avenoo, tho
best street of the towu. Clark discov
ered that ho kept a good sized roll of
bank notes in his clothes all tho tinio
luo man was in tne imbit or sitting np
far into the night, and when Clark ap
peurcd ou tho scene to enter tbo bouso
ho discovered the owner in a dressing
gown, with his back to tho window,
reading This discovery, however, did
not discourage Clark. lie went away
and came back with a long stick, to
which were fastcd a string and a hook.
Suddenly the man insido looked np to
see his trousers, with his roll of bills in
them, going swiftly through tho air and
out of the window He must have
thought they were bewitched, for ho
could not see for the moment the string
and the stick. As soon as he had recov
ered his self possession he ran ont to
look for tbo thief, but it was no nse.
Clark Was far away by that tuna
"Clark was cornered in Rochester at
last lie had just returned from one of
his long tours of burglary through the
country He was seen coming out of
the house where his wife lived, and two
or three policemen went in pursuit of
him. When they cornered him in an
alley, he turned and shot one of them
dead.
"All the time he was In jail await
ing the execution of his sentence to be
hanged his wife was a daily visitor
She is still a handsome woman, with an
air of refinement and good breeding
about her. He was the coolest man 1
ever saw on the scaffold. He walked np
the steps smoking a cigarette and smil
ing as if he enjoyed himself. 'Just wait
till 1 finish this smoke and I'm ready,"
he remarked. They let him finish it
"His death broke his poor wife's
heart. I saw ber two or three years aft
erward, and she was wrinkled and old,
and the gray was beginning to como in
to her hair. She drifted to this city,
and perhaps she is here yet. " New
York Sun.
