Up Go billiard Balls.

The news that Emin Pasha had left be-
hind him his load of ivory has had sur
prising effect upon billiard interests in
this country, and its effect may be soon
felt in further bulling Of the market
for soft ivory used in the manufacture of
billiard balls. Tho pricc OF billiard balls
was recently advanced TO $39 for a set Of
four balls of standard q inch measure
ment. 1t was the last boom Of a slow
rise in price that had been going OF for
nearly year. Last year before the ad-
vance set in a standard set of balls of the
best ivory could be bought for sec. Pool
balls were trifie cheaper, because such
true spheres of ivory arc not needed in
pool.
The billiard ball manufacturers attrib-
ute the increase to the war that had
been going on in Zanzibar for year or
more between the Arab traders and the
natives on the one hand and the German
leaders of the protectorate at Zanzibar
on the other. These cestly dissensions,
the manufacturers say, had the effect of
greatly retarding the expectation of soft
ivory from Africa, and created scarcity
of good ivory that made the increase in
prices of billiard balls necessary.
The war in Zanzibar was squelched
some time ago by the Teutonic protect
crate, but the prices of the billiard balls
have not been depressed correspond
ingly.
Emin Pasha's store of ivory tusks had
been accumulating for years, and DIR.
Junker estimated two years and half
ago that he had about $500, 900 worth of
tusks. This had probably increased
month by month, but the latest dis
patches were that it had all been burned
or deposited with native chiefs.

Excitement Among sparrows.

An English sparrow became entangled
in network of electric and telegraph
wires in one of the busiest streets of Gin
cinnati the other day and was killed, but
hung to the wires. Immediately spar
rows began to arrive from all sections of
the city, and they covered the roofs like
huge blanket. There were thousands

pletely drowned the noise of the street.
