POLITIC A HONESTY.
Iu conversation the othtr day with a
prominent Democrat, anions; other criti
cisims indulged in was the one that "the
Republicans do not give their opponents
credit for political honesty," which to
liis way of thinking was very wrong.
Come to think of it The Herald must
to a certain extent plead guilty to the
charge, and assigns as some of its reasons
therefor that the history of the Detr.ocat
ic party is not only one of treason and
disunion, but a long line of broken
pledges as well. The past being so veiy
distasteful to the Democratic party, with
its history of broken pledges, that mete
mention of it by an oppouent is called
waving the bloody shirt, and is frowned
down upon by the entire Democratic fra
ternity. Then again every Democrat in Nebras
ka will roll his eyes in feigned surprised
at your doubts, and will assure you that
the ballot is as free and fair iu the South
as here in the Ncrth, while the law and
order party recently organized by a wing
of Democracy in Louisiana an
placing fifty policemen at every polling
place to preserve order and prevent
fraudulent voting, nothing of that kind
was ever required at a state election iu
this pirt of the United States. Thr
perusal of democratic national platforms
for Ihi past twenty-five years furnishes
additional unanswerable reasons for
doubting the political honesty of our ad
versaries. The straddling of every im
portant question is further evidence of
the uncertain political conscience of the
democratic party.
The Chicago Journal states the rase
very aptly in thefollowing : "The free
traders 6ay that free wool is needed to
give the manufacturers cheap raw mater
ial so that they can furnish cheaper cloth.
They then attempt to prove to the sheep
growers that the price of wool under a
high tariff has been less than under a
low tariff. Now, if the free traders want
cheap wool for the manufacturer, go as
to make cloth, why do they not keep up
the high wool tariff ?
The Macon (Oa.) Ttleyraph declares
that "every man must show his hand in
politics this year. It would do very
will, also, to let every hand entitled to
let the right cast an honest ballot and . to
let the votes be counted as cast, "this
year." The result might not please the
democratic bulldozers, bat it would be
relished by the people of the country as
AT A TEA AUCTION.
HOW THE EXPERTS VALUE THE
STOCK BEFORE IT IS SOLD.
Senile In m 8aleroom A VUlt from Pro
fesaional Tea Tjtutera A l'rellraiimry
Tent The Aroma-Getting the Flavor.
Julet Iurclianers.
A dozen or a seoro of tea importers may
be repiesentcd in the stock of tea. which
a firm of ar '-tioneers oiler for sale on
a given ilay. Two hundred or more different
grades of tea may be in the consignment.
A sample chest, half chest, or package of
each grade is sent to the auction room for
Iiuqiection and sampling by prosective pur
c borers. These are ranged in tiers about
the auction room so that their distinctive
nai.ics and marks may lio seen. All these
murks, and a queer lot of hieroglyphics they
are, are reproduced in the catalogue, always
lurgo leaved, and with plenty of room for
notes alongside the description of each lot of
a particular grade of tea. The lots vary
from a single package or half chest up to
jierhaps a hundred packages of the fragrant
Oriental loaves. The small lots are usually
iiartieularly choice brands of tea, the large
ones the cheaper and "standard' grades.
The distinctive marks on these chests aside
from the Chinese figures are either figures or
letters, sometimes standing alone, but oftencr
inclosed in a circle, a square, a triangle, an
ellqise, or some other geometrical figure, and
occasionally accompanied by an anchor or
some similar figure that is a symbol of no
ono knows what exactly. Once in their
places in the auction room, the sample chests
are made- ready for customers who wish to
try the teas. And here is where tea auction
sales differ from other auction sales. A pur
chaser may try before he buys. To enable
him to try, big holes, an inch and a half or
so in diameter, ore cut through the chest and
its wicker cover, so that the tea can easily
lie reached. The sample packages thus pre
ared, everything is ready for the sale.
PROFESSIONAL TEA TASTER.
For two days before the sale young men
with the big quarto catalogues ami accom
panied by a boy with small tin boxes visit
the auction rooms and take samples for test
ing. Theso young men are usually profes
sional tea tasters, and to the casual visitor to
an auction room their methods are jieculiar,
to say the least. A wisp of the split bamboo,
such as the network of matting that covers
the packages is made of, in the sampler's
weaioi for attack on the tea chests about
him. His catalogue is held in bis left hand.
With the right ho thrusts his wisp of bamboo,
doubled so as to mako a sort of hoe, into the
round hole in the tea chest, and from the
chest hauls a handful of the tea on to the
catalogue pages. The eye serves to tell him
if the tea has been colored or bleached. That
point settled, the necessary note is made in
his catalogue. Then comes the preliminary
test. The tea is dumped from the sampler's
catalogue into his hand. Then, with the
hand artially closed, the sampler blows
vigorously into the mass of leaves, and at
once applies the. leaves to his nose. Thus he
gets a fair idea of the aroma. As he has no
further use for that particular sample, he
throws it into a trough which stands at the
foot of the rows of chests, and which is put
there for the express purpose of holding these
discarded samples and the particles that do
not fall on the catalogue pages when the wisp
of bamboo pulls the sample from the cb;3st.
And so the sampler goes the round of ithe
long row of tea chests, eyeing and smelling,
and once in a great while tasting a bit of the
tea, and always throwing away two or three
pounds during the course of his afternoon in
spection. All the observations of this expert as to
color, aroma and quality are noted in his
catalogue. Some samples ore quickly dis
losed of, and the sampler marks in his cata
logue the value of the particular brand of
tea he has inspected. But there ore some
brands, usually of the finer grades, that
puzzle him. Ho is in doubt as to the actual
value of the leaves he has looked at and
binelled of a half dozen times perhaps. So
he instructs a youth who accompanies him to
"take a sample." This youngster, using the
same means as his companion has before him,
hauls a liberal sample from the chest into a
tin box, which is duly marked and labeled
with the same hieroglyphics that are in
scribed on the chest and in the catalogue. A
dozen samples may be taken in this way for
the expert's use outside of the auction room.
These collected, his work among the sample
chests is ended.
GETTING THE FULL, FLAVOR.
Accompanied by the boy and his small
tin boxes, the expert leaves the auction room
and goes to his office to finish his valuation
of the samples his boy carries. Seated at
a round table, which turns on its standard
at the slightest touch, ho finishes his work
with a speed which is little-less than mar
velous. A dozen French china cups and a
samovar, or urn, of hot water help him to
do this. Leaves from the sample tin boxes
arc put in the china cups and treated to &
bath of the boiling water from the ura in
the center of the table. There is a prelimi
nary sniiT at tha aroma arising from each
particular cup, and then a taste just a sip
to get the flavor fully. This test settles the
valuation of the tea in a moment, and the ex
pert marks in his catalogue what ho deems
the samples thus treated to be worth. No
one ever disputes that valuation, for the tea
taster is in his line an autocrat, a despot
whose decision no one dares question. The
catalogue now marked is sent to the buyer
of the houso the expert represents, and with
the latter there remaius only the purely
mechanical work of attending the sale and
buying, if he can, at or below the figures
fixed by the expert at iue maximum value of
the teas.
The auction sale itself is very like any
other trade sale. A hundred men sit about
the auction room in front of the glib tongued
crier. Catalogue and pencil in hand, the
crowd of buyers are a very q-j'et Irty, azd
let the auctioneer make all -ho noise. A
Ieneil or catalogue raised in the air for an
instant goes for a bid. Sometimes a nod of
the head suffices to settle the ownership of a
consignment of tea. It is very rarely that a
word is spoken, except when the starting bid
is made. When other spoken bids follow they
are usually made by some out of town buyer.
The auctioneer knows everybody iu the
room except these same out of town mer
chants, who are looking for bargains. So he
quietly tells his clerks the name of the pur
chaser, and a stranger visiting the sale is left
in mystery most of the time, not only as to
who the buyer is, but also as to which one of
the men in that very quiet but very business
like crowd made the bnd. Five thousand or
0,000 packages of tea may be disposed of in
an hour or an hour and a half, and then the
crowd of buyers melt away just as quickly
as it had assembled itself for the sale. New
York Times.

A WINTER SANITARIUM.
THE CHARMS OF THE SEA DUR
ING THE INCLEMENT MONTHS.
A Piece for Health, Kest and Recrea
tion An KodleHB, Kvercliaiiclng Pan
orama of Human Life Droll Looking
Ilaxaara Tlio Sea' l asclnatlons.
A nvlwinter respite of a fw weeks from
the distractions of social life, or the cares of
business, has come to be, in this eager, push
ing, rMtlcss existence of modern times, al
most a necessity. If we will lAit, or caunot,
"take it easy" on the way, wo must halt ami
make a special business of resting a method
more iu accordance with tho American tem
perament. And so Lent, which ought to be,
if it isn't, quiet and dull in the city, is the
eason of well earned rest for tho fashiona
ble world.
The far away, sunny south, where the roses
never fade and tho alligator's song is heard
in the land, is a favorite retreat for many;
yet within a few hours' ride of New York
there is a charming city by the sea whero
t-very whiter there is a gathering of fashion,
wealth and beauty, representing the well
known leaders of tho bett society in New
York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore ami
Washington. They come for health, rest,
recreation, or on pleasure bent; for, Lent
though it may be, one is not supposed to en
tirely forswc:ir all amusement. Surely not.
A hop every week, parties, even an occasional
genuan, receptions, teas, etc., with a dis
creet, distinctly unimpeachable game of
cards for tho more staid patrons.
CONVENIENCE AND COMFORT.
The hotels cro numerous and thoroughly
well equipi)cd with everv moVci n convenience
and comfort. Oue of tho most attractive
features about tho place is the ''board walk,"
which extends elong tho water's ed e for
three miles and a half. This ocean boulevard
fairly divides honors with tho magnificent
beach, which has become famous as one of
tho finest on tho Atlantic coast. On tho
smooth, shining sands, mado firm and hard
by the pressure of tho waves, whether walk
ing, riding, driving or sitting still, ono tees
an endless, everchauging panorama of human
life. Up and down, laughing, talking, merry
or sad, age and jouh, weakness and strength,
on they go, like the ebb and flow of the tide
at their feet. What a study 1 Horo a group
of invalids, tempted outof doors by the clear,
sapphire sky, whici sees its own rare beauty
reflected in tho glittering blue depths below;
the bright warmth of golden sunshine, tho
pure, fresh, bracing breeze that seems to
bring vigor and hope on its fragrant breath.
New lifo seems to creep into their veins, a
faint color comes to the fair cheeks as t hey
stroll along and listen to the chant of tho
waves.
There, a couple in whom health, strength
and happiness seem personified, they, too, are
watching the bright, sun kissed waters; b:;t
if tho expression of his face means aught tho
color on her cheek is not wholly due to tho
crisp breeze that is ruffling the dainty trcsseri
of her dark hair, and the "wild waves" are
telling a very sweet story "a story new as
laughter; old as tears." A little further on
comes a party of laughing, happy children.
For them there is no "eternal note of sad
ness" in tho song of the sea. They shout
with glee at the merry, mad frolics of tho
huge, foam crested waves. They run and
jump and play with hearts as light as tho
spray that caresses their bright, innocent
faces, and know naught of tho care and
sorrow which have left their mark on many
of tho moving, changeful throng.
DROLL LOOKING BOOTHS.
Along tho board walk are pavilions, or sun
parlors, whero one may enjoy the warmth
and brightness without being actually ex
posed to the outside air, and from whose
sheltering windows the magnificent and fas
cinating spectacle of a storm may bo safely
and comfortably witnessed. There are droll
looking booths or bazaars, at which every-:
thing that dwells in earth, air or sky may be
procured. Things, eatable, drinkable, wear
able, portable all that it has entered into
the mind of man to conceiqe and invent are
here in startling array. Ono can have eigh
teen tintypes, three shaves and a dinner for
fifteen cents.
Atlantic City believes in the adjuration
which bids us "be all things to all men."
There is variety enough in the life here to
suit each and alL For the votaries of fashion
and pleasure there is gayety of all sorts. For
the thoughtful student, or tho seeker after
rest and quiet, surely there cannot be a more
congenial spot than this, where ono is face to
f aco with the grandest mightiest of nature's el
ements. And health has already established
beyond dispute her claim to having set the seal
of her own regeneration upon tho city by the
sea. Thus, well or ill, me:-ry or sad, grave
or gay, young or old, this favored spot hath
charms for all.
And what is tho secret of the mysterious,
powerful fascination of the sea? One think?
of the lines written about tho womaa whose
fame for beautj' and witching charms has
come down through centuries, and will ring
on through ages yet to come "ago cannot
wither, nor custom stale her infinite variety.'
Tho last ten words seem to strike the key
note, for surely fr nothing else on this fair
earth can they be more appropriately ap
plied. Like a willful woman, tho sea has itt
moods, changing and fitful as the wind that
ruEles its calm, blue depths. Atlantic City

Tho Treasurer ot English monarchy.
I thought, perhaps, in her majesty.'s absence
I might gain admission to tho place by "per
suading" the lodge keeper and tho officer in
charge, for a j-ellow key will open every
other lock I have tried in England, and usu
ally a silver one will do. I got a look at the
coronation robes, "the cloth of gold," upon
which the kings and queens of England for
CJ0 years have placed their feet when receiv
ing the crown, and the communion service
of gold from which they have received the
holy sacrament for even more centuries at
the hands of tho archbishop of Canterbury
before they first ascend the throne, and it
only cost a sovereign. These, the most
sacred of all tho historical treasures, are kept
in massive chests in the crypt of Westmin
ster Abbey, and are never taken out except
once a year to ixj cleaned and reimbedJed in
camphor, and when the reign of a new mon
arch begins. The person in charge almost
fainted when I asked to see them, but a sov
ereign convinced him of his duty to see that
they-were safe; so he unlocked the chest and
took them out carefully, while I stood by in
awe. Cor. Philadelphia Times.
