He wrote to Eyre that if the money was not accepted he would send back the chair and desk to Harrisburg.

Dp to this time the Senator has not had a reply. In reference to the chair fcrub, Senator Rice says: "At the time the resolution for the Senators to take the chairs and desks was submitted, I openly opposed any such doings and voted against it. .1 did not then, nor do not at this 1 time, consider the Senate had any right to bestow any of the State's furniture upon anybody without a cash consideration therefor, and the subsequent sanctioning of it by Governor Stone and his associates on the Board of Public Grounds and Buildings does not make the action any less Illegal."

POSTER, Treasurer Bristol Borough School Board. Bristol, 7th Month (July) 1st, 19Q1. are the Greatest Coffee 'Drinkers. Americans are the greatest coffee drink- era on the face of the globe, and every year the consumption of the bevrage is Increasing. One-half of the world's production of the berry is brought to the United States.

More than $1,000,000 a week is sent out of the country for this article alone, and the worst of it is that all this money goes to foreign nations, while American citizens and the people of recently acquired colonies can supply every need. Porto Rico, Hawaii and the Philippine Islands produce a superior quality of coffee, commanding high -prices in the markets of the world. Porto Rican coffee has long been looked upon as a high grade, and for many years has commanded high prices in the markets of Europe, The- importations of coffee into the United States durlrJg the nine monnths ending with March, 1901, amounted pounds, with a value of $46.218,000, a sum nearly $5,000,000 in excess of the value of the coffee imports of the same months of the preceding fiscal year, indicating that for the full fiscal year the total value of the coftee imported into the United States will be about $60,000,000. Even this fc omewnat below the annual average coat of coffee imported during the depade just ended, the reduction in tqtal value! being due to the fall of about QBe-hrtf In the Import price, 1 Administrator's Sale of the Real Estate of MABY If: STBKMBECK, deceased.
