Portuguese Expedition to Lake n,

Portuguese Expedition to Lake Nyassa.
Under date of June Ernest W. Smith, consul
Of the United States to Mozambique, reports to
the Department of State that the Zaive, a Por-
tuguese gunboat, had arrived at Quillamane,
having on board Major Serpa Pinto and staff
of officers to head an expedition to Lake N.Y.
ASA. Engineers in the party will survey a
route for a railroad between Shame and Blan-
tyne. An escort Of three hundred and fifty
natives will accompany the party, proceeding
by the river Shire instead of overland Two
launches OF shallow draft carrying seven and
two guns respectively, have been provided for
the expedition. Consul Smith. says that in
event of the party proceeding up the Shire
there Is no doubt that resistance will be made
by the Makolalo natives, who are, however,
no. strong enough to prevent the advancement
OF such a strong party. 1t Is feared that the
result OF the expedition will be a great dis
turbance in the country and destruction of the
peace and good understanding so long existing
between the Makolalo natives and foreign mer-
chants established in the country

From the Boston Herald
The English pride themselves on the various
drinks which they designate as soups" Those
''cider cups" "claret cups" ''moselle cups"
and champagne cups"-the preference being
given to 'claret cups" To make one of these
drinks q writer says that all that is requisite
outside Of the proper ingredients is somebody
who knows how to combine ice. sugar lemons
and the proper drink artistically." An
authority says: The basis of all whole
some cups Is a brew Of sugar and lemon
peel, with little water-hot, il You can
get II convenient; cold, If you are far from q
lemon peel must soak O little longer than il
hot water be used The quantity of sugar
must vary, OF course, in proportion to the
amount Of sweetness in the wine or cider to
be used. and will also depend to some extent
on the taste and fancy of the mixer. Four
humps of sugar to a bottle of fair average
claret will be about the mark, and for a cup on
this scale the following should be the mode Of
procedure: Take four good-sized Jumps OF sugar
and the peel of half q lemon; cut very thin;
put these into a mug and add sufficient water
(hosbeing preferable) to cover the sugar. Let
the sugar melt, and, il hot water be used, cover
the top Of the mug while the stewing is going
on, and then add glass Of sherry and half O
glass Of brandy. Put In as large lump OF ice
as the circumstances will admit Of, and imme-
diately add bottle Of claret and bottle and
Q half or two bottles of soda water. Then take
out the lemon peel, insert handful of borage,
sprig OF fresh mint and a couple Of thin
slices OF lemon; stir and drink Some artists
have weakness for adding piece Of cucum-
Der rind, and the suggestion 10 not without
merit" The drink Is most delectable. and il
most refreshing, invigorating and cooling In
hot weather.

THE wool growers Of America score
a victory in the recent decision of the
New York collector as to the rating of
certain qualities Of imported worsted
goods. The importers have been
entering these goods as those contain
ing combed wool and classed with all
goods made on knitting frames, which
pay from ten to eighteen cents on
goods worth from thirty to eighty
cents. Collector Erhardt holds that
these goods having been found by the
appraiser to contain large quantities
of wool must pay duties under section
352 of the tariff law which calls for
thirty-five cents per pound and thirty
five per cent. ad valorem on all goods
under eighty cents. This decision is
the result of several investigations
and involves about 81, 100000 annual
ly. The importers have been notified
and given free option to lay the case
before the Secretary of the Treasury.
1t is ruling which will have conse-
quences outside of this specific de-
cision.

THE COLOR OF BIRDS,
How 1t May BE Affected by the Use Of
Cayenne Pepper.

How 1t May BE Affected by the Use Of
Cayenne Pepper.
DR.. Sauermann. whose high reputa-
ton among the physiological societies
of the world gives great weight to his
conclusions. has lately made series of
investigations into the effect that cay
enne pepper has upon birds, fowls,
pigeons. and other species of the feath-
cred family. These Investigations were
undertaken in connection with the OBJ
served fact that canaries fed with cay
enne pepper acquireda ruddy plumage.
This diet was found only to produce the
effect stated upon young birds when
given to them before they moulted. The
color of the feathers of the old birds
was not affected at all, although con-
siderable amount of the pepper was
given at different times, extending
over an interval OF several weeks.
change of color to a ruddy hue, which
was again discharged under the influ-
ence of sunlight or of cold, dry at
mosphere. The whole of the pepper is
not required to produce the change, a
portion of it being quite inactive, as
for example the piperin and several ex-
tractives; similarly the red colOring
matter alone had no effect on the color
of the feathers. 1t is rather the trio
lein, which occurs in the pepper in
large quantities. together with the
characteristic pigment, which brings
about tie cnange of color by holding
the red pigment of the pepper in solu-
ton. Glycerine may be used instead
of triolein to bring about the same re-
suit.
The same statement holds good with
regard to the feeding of birds with ami
line colors. The red pigment of the
pepper is also stored up in the egg yelk
