VALUABLE TREE—MAHWA.
Scientists Find That This Growth Pos
sesses Intrinsic Value When
Placed on Market.
As a reliablecommercial source
of sugar, the flowersof the Mahwa
tree (Russia lutifolia) of India arc
being brought into notice. The
following description of the tree
and of the numerous products
that it yields are from a transia
lion, published in the National
Uruggist of a lecture delivered by
I’rof. Yoight before the Natural
Science society of Hamburg, Her
many. He said:
“The Mahwa, as a nut hearing
tree, has been known for many
ages. In the Laws of .Mann the
priesthood of India are forbidden
to indulge in inadhvi. a fiery liquor
made from the fruit, and in .the
'< 'ollect ion of Indian Kerned it s." 1 y
Suruta, we are told that the ; c *
yields a sugary paste, from which
a fermented drink is made.
“It belongs to the sapotaceae
(star-apple family), the family to
which belongs the very important
gutta-percha tree of the Malay
archipelago, and is found only in
the northern border of India,
where it grows clear to tin* foot
of the mighty Himalayas. 11 grows
from 50 to 05 feet high, and is one
! of the few deciduous trees of that
icgion. Its blooming period lasts
from the end of February tiil
April. Quickly after the pollen is
formed, the whitish tubular flow
ers swell to halts about as large
as a cherry, which contain a large
amount of invert sugar (honey).
The flower tubes fall, covering
the ground in the greatest profu
sion. They are eagerly gathered
by the natives and eaten. A tree
yields from 200 to “00 pounds of
flowers, which, when dry, weigh
about half as much, and occupy
about one fourth as much space.
“The land is leased to the na
tives. and as the region where it
grows is of a poor and stony soil,
the tree constitutes an important
source of food.
“The fruit is usually mixed with
lice and thus eaten. The dried
Mowers have very much tin* taste
and appearance of raisins. They
are exported to Europe as a curi
osity, and are also used as food for
animals. Instillation yields a
large percentage of spirits, which,
diluted with water makes ’davit.’
a native whisky very much used.
It comes on the market in open
barrels, and is highly esteemed by
Europeans, who claim that it
equals the best whisky. Almost
every village has its distillery. In

“Beside the Mowers the seed
are of considerable use. They
contain a fat of butter like consis

stuff known as illipe. and is used

SENATOR, HINKLE BEFORE
THE GRAND JURY.
l'he Arkansas Gazette of Friday
says: “Evidence that the legis
lative investigation has not ended
was furnished yesterday, when
Senator John A. Hinkle of Bates
ville was called before the Pulaski
county grand jury. Senator Hin
kle was nob served with a sum
until he arrived in the city yester
day morning.* but he is said to
have come in response to a request
from Prosecuting Attorney Kho
ton.
“Senate* Hinkle was called be
fore the inquisitors about 10
o’clock and he was in the jury
room during the greater part of
the session. The investigation is
being conducted with the greatest
secrecy and no intimation has
been given as to the nature of the
testimony given by either Senator
Hinkle or Senator McFerrin, who
was before the grand jury several
days ago. It is expected that
some indictments may be returned
by the grand jury in connection
with the bribery inquiry before
the session ends. ’’

the matter and something was
mentioned about Sl,o00 being used
to tlie best advantage in j^etti
the bill through. The evidence
showed that Chapline then told
Mayberry liiat he could put him
in touch with a man who could
help him lobby the bill through.
Later it appears that M. 1). L.
Cook, a noted lobbyist, was the
man whom Chapline wished May
berry to meet. Evidence also
showed that Cook had an arrange
ment in which a certain amount
of money was to be paid over to
