Cruelty to Green Turtles.

There is no more forcible example of mans
thoughtless cruelty than the manner in which
turtles are treated The green turtle is cap
tured by nets in the Gulf OF Mexico. The
boats engaged in this business are called tur-
tiers. When a turtle is captured Sits are cut
in its f1ippers and they are tied Ter by
stout cords On their backs, with their flip
pers thus tied, the turtles are as restricted in
their movements as man in straight
jacket. The boats are generally out from
two to three weeks before load is secured,
and therefore the first turtles caught lie there
on their backs this length of time before be-
ing shipped north. They do not arrive in
New York until at least ten days after they
are taken from the boats. On arrival they
are sent to the different markets, where they
lie with their ''fippersn still tied until either
they are sold or die of starvation This is
no exaggerated account The turtle will
live about three months without water OF
food. Death from starvation sometimes
puts an end to their sufferings 0ftentimes
their eyes almost burst from their sockets
Green turtle is worth in New York fifteen
cents pound, live weight 1t is bough,
principally by restaurants and hotels. A
turtle is killed by cutting Off his head, and
this is done after it has been received at the
place where it is to be eaten-Brooklyr

Zone Sunday morning Gen. Grant was up
in my gallery; he had come in to give me a
sitting" said Leon Van Loo This was
when he and Gen. Sherman were planning
some of their famous campaigns at the Bur
net house, Cincinnati during the dark days
of the war. Well, the general and a number
of US sat enjoying cigar before proceeding
to business. Just before We arose to go into
the operating room | noticed a lady standing
at the head of the stairs, and wondered how
she got there, for the street door was closed.
and everything closed in fact, for it was at
the time when the Sunday closing was being
enforced on everything. But there she stood,
waiting apparently. She was lady, that
was to be seen; there was that refinement
about her, and she was finely dressed Pres
entity the general laid down his cigar and got
up to follow me. Well, what should this
woman do but hastily cross the room and
picked up the cigar that Gen Grant had laid
down and walk out with it. She had seen
the general come in, no doubt, and wanting a
souvenir of him, had stationed herself there
at the door and waited for him to finish that
cigar. And she got it. Gen Grant smiled
and said-nothing. Chicago Herald.

The total number of persons employed on a
typical japanese newspaper say The Nichi
Nichi Skimbun, is as follows: One political
director, one chief editor, five assistant edi-
tors, four proof readers, one shorthand writer,
twelve reporters or news gatherers, three or
four compositorS, each with several assist
ants, twelve men in the press room and minor
employees, including distributors, making a
total Of $50 persons. The reporters are the
weak point, for the editor frankly tells YOU
that IL they cannot find news they are COM
PEELED to bring home fiction, as they are paid
by results, and even then they do not often
earn more than SO month
They therefore deliberately invent large
part of the news. During my own stay the YER
nacular papers have had fifty items of news
about my movements, of ludicrous inaccu-
racy. So untrustworthy, indeed, is the re-
porter that an assistant editor is always sent
when anybody of Importance desires or is in
vited to be interviewed. As regards the sup
ply of news, the best papers have their own
correspondents, almost always men employed
on a newspaper, in other chief cities, and
some Of them hive mail CORRESPONDENTS
abroad, generally young men who have gone
to Europe or America to study. Much en-
terprlse is shown in collecting full accounts
of anything that occurs in Japan, but the
trail Of the untrustworthy reporter is over ii
all, and this greatly reduces its interest and
influence Henry Norman in Philadelphia

n correspondent of the Northwestern Rail

He says that there are over 10000 locomo-
tives in use in North America, and esti-
mates that from them alone over 5000,
ooO,O00 cubic yards of vapor are sent into the
atmosphere every week, to be returned in the

yards day-''quite enough he says, ''to
produce good rainfall7 every twenty four
hours. Estimating the number of other
