SOMETHING ABOUT THE MAKING Oi
OLIVE OIL. ‘
When the Fruit RIpcns—Hovv It Is
Handled—Crushing in the Mill—
Grades ofrho 011—11111. Bountiful Olive
Trees—Exportufims of Oil
Oil- making, as compared to wine-
making. is a serious, not to say a dull
occupation. It 1s not in early autumn,
but in winter, that the olives ripen, and.
in place of the lively, rapid gathering , of
the beautiful clusters of the grapes,
thereis the stooping position and the
slow, steady picking of the fruit either
from off the tree or off the ground, berry
by'herry. Then comes the careful sort-
ing .of the olives. upon which, in a great
measure, the quantity of the oil depends.
-“ The first olives are gold, the second
silver, the th1rd are worth nothing,”
says the Tuscan proverb.
When this operation' 13 over, the fruit
is put into a mill, where it is slowly
crushed into a pulp under an enormous
stone wheel, moved by a simple contriv-
ance, which is put in motion by water
power in Lucca, that “ land of streams,’
but' in the drier portions of Italy [by a
monkey or an ox. This pulp, which
takes a lovely {purple-greenish hue, is
then put into round receptacles woven of
rope, and placed under a press, worked
'by hand with a bar. The oil which ex-
udes trickles down into a vat placed on
the floor below, in the bottom of which
there is water. '
After this first'pressure, which, made
as it usually is of the finest olives, care-
fully sorted and washed, produces the
best quality of oil, the pulp is once more
put into the mill, mixed with a little
boiling water, to be again pressed, pro-
ducing oil of a second quality. A third
pressure gives forth the oil for burning,
and in the end1 the pulp is utilized as
manure or made up into round cakes for
burning together with the wood fires.
When the vat is full into which the
freshly crushed oil 18 allowed to run, af-
ter having stood for a few days, so that
all the precious liquid rises well to the
top, the oil is drawn off into jars called
in Italian “ orci,” some of which are so
huge as to render ‘the stratagem of 'the
captain of the Forty _ Thieves in the
“Arabian Nights” quite intelligible. In
these receptacles the oil is left to settle
for four or five days, when the purer oil
rises to the top and is drawn of. Some
oil jars have two orifices, from the upper
one of which the betteroil is drawn,
while an inferior kind is taken from the
lower.
Some of these jars used' in olden times
to be beautifully ornamented; but such
work is hardly ever done in these days.
The oil when first made has a much
deeper color than that we usually see,
and has a wonderful and delicious
aromatic flavor, but, like many other
lovely things, this is sadly evanescent.
Unfortunately, there is a terrible amount
of adulteration carried on with the oil,
sometimes before it leaves Italy, more
often after it reaches England. so that
some kinds of oil can be bought more
cheaply in England than in Italy. Cot-
ton oil. which has neither flavor nor
color, is said to be extensively used for
this purpose.
What olive oil is to the Italians one
must live in Italy to appreciate. To such
as like it it is an almost perfect form of
Beans with oil and salt
are held by the peasants a dish fit for the
gods. It is touching to see how they
will buy even tiny quantities of oil, as if
it were impossible for them to go with-
out it entirely. Foreigners often com-
plain of the large amount used in Italian
cooking, but, if they would but believe
it, oil is far more digestible when used
for frying than either butter or fat.
Certainly a good qualification for resi-
dence in Italy is a liking for olive oil.
A prolonged residence in Italy leads
one to look upon the beautiful soft-green
olive trees with an affection such as no
one who has not experienced it can im-
agine. They are so inseparably bound
up with Italian landscape. Sometimes
it is called a melancholy tree, but those
who feel therelief which its soft, misty
effects give to the burning glow of an
Italian summer never find it so. The
trees, too, assume such peculiar shapes
that, when one lives among them, one
learns to know one from another, until
they seem like old friends.
The olive does not, it is true, give
much shade, but the color of the air un-
derneath it is so soft and soothing that it
calms and quiets the nervesin a wonder-
ful way. As we grow familiar with the
olive w e understand 'how the Athenians
consecrated it o Pal‘as, the Goddess of
Wisdom, and ow the Son of Man, seek-
ing solitude, “ went into the Mount of ‘
Olives.” The Italian peasants, who are
not an imaginative . people, do not, per-
haps, feel the charm of the olive tree as
they do that of the joyous vine and the
thick-leaved, shady fig tree; but Italian
poets love it well, and often celebrate its
praise. It' is levergreen, too, and cheers
the wintry landscape with its soft, gray.
ish green, lighter than the foliage of the
pine, the cypress and the fir.
A large part of the oil made 1n Italy is
exported, and the export trade is grow-
ing. In America the Californian dil
competes with the Italian, but 1n Greece
and Spain olives are more often pre-
pared for eating than made into oil. The
trees really require a good deal of care
and tending, though they do not always
get it. They need to be kept scraped inside
their usually hollow trunks and cleaned
from moss outside. The land around
them may be ploughed or hoed once or
twice a, year, and corn can grow under
the shade without injury—Illustrated

Recorder Smythe Refuses. to
Give Harris a New Trial.
HIS OWN
' AGAINST HIM--
He :Will Now Appeal to the Gov-
” ernor. . 1
NEW YORK, March 17.—Unless Gov.
Flower interferes, Carlyle W. Harris, the
medical student. who‘ on February 1, 1892,
was found guilty of murdering by poison
his girl wife, Helen Potts, will in about
six weeks. he electrocuted at Sing Sing.
His last hope outside of gubernatorial
clemency was blasted yesterday by Re-
corder Smytheflvho denied his request
for a new trial.
In asking for the new trial, Hurris’
lawyers, Howe and Hummcl, claimed
thst new evidence had been discovered
since the Court of Apposls"rcfused 'to set
aside the verdict of guilty. Afldsvlts
were presented to the effect that Helen
Potts was addicted to the use of mor-
phinc.
On the Government side were offered
counter-umdavits, not only against the
alleged new evidence of the defence, but
also against the character of the defence’s
witnesses. Recorder .Smythe took these
afiidsvits under consideration and spent
several days on them before reaching‘his
dooming decision. He finds the denying
evidence of the Government so strong
and incontcstiblc that the sfildsvits of
the defence are made utterly worthless.
In regard to thc afiidsvit of Harris the
Recordcr says, speaking of the defend-.
ant’s statement about not being put on
the stand: .
“That is all the evidence contained in
this affidavit which is of any importance
upon the questions involved in this mo-
tion.
“It only reamrms the plea of not guilty
which the defendant interposed at the
time of his arraignment upon the indict?
ment,!and, although he does not say that,
had he been permitted by his counsel to
take the stand as a witness in his own
behalf and give his testimony, and conse-
quent explanation of the facts arraigned
against him, he would have been acquit-
ted, and that he only could have fully
and wholly, satisfactorily and truly an-
swered the charge against him, yet, with
the fullest opportunity to do so upon this
motion the defendant fails to give any
explanation whatsoever of his connection
with the deceased, c1- oi-the facts and cir.
cumstanoes‘ which were estsblishc'd upon
his trial.
“If he could then have trully answered
tho'se charges, I know of no reason now
why he should not have done so. In s‘riy
aspect of his testimony it cannot be
called newly discovered, or, if the testi-
mony contained‘ in his cilidsvit had. bc‘o‘n
introduced, and no 1119566, upon his trial,
could it, either alone r in connecti n
with the. facts which were then sets

fenda‘pt and the cased: from thcti

any signs whatever which led him ‘tc
conclude that the deceased was addicted

“To my mind, " says the Recorder in
ocncluslon,“this is a strong and most
convincing circumstance that it was im-
possible that the dcceased could have
been addicted to the use of morphine
and the defendant not observe it.”
All the testimony given as to the good
health is commented on and also the
-gruin doses given Miss Potts by Dr.
find and its effects when she was ill.
The decision consists of about 15,000
words and covers 51 typewritten pages.

that almost his last hope was gone. His

RETALIATION _ON THE OZAB.
Jewish Bankers-in Europc Asked to Boy-
cott Russian Loans-
LONDON, March 17.—The London Rus-
so-chish Committee has sent to every
Jewish bank and bank director, bank
manager, stock broker and “agent do
change” in Europe a passionate appeal to
combine in boycotting Russian loans
and in boycotting the trade in Russian
securities generally.
The appeal is significant in connection
with the fact that the Russian Govern-
ment has just issued a ukasc providing
for an internal loan, and that Russian
bankers are endeavoring to extend their
relations with money centers outside of
Russia.
Owing to the leading position of the
Jews in the money markets. of EurOpe it
is expected that the appeal, if complied
with, will virtually drive Russian securi-
ties of all kinds out of those markets and
work great disaster to Russian industrial
enterprises.
The appeal is in retaliation for the con-
tinned severity of the Czar in dealing
with the Jews.
