THE FEAST OF THE SEASONS
A Success Financially and Pleasant
Affair Otherwise.

In spite of unfavOrabIe weather the
Baptist ladies had very successful re-
suits from their "Feast of the
Seasons" last night. The house was
uncomfortably crowded with their
friends, who patronized them liberal
ly. They r port cash receipts
amounting 10 $4,000. There were
two means Of raising the money. In
addition to serving oysters, ETC., in
any style, in the four booths typical
respectively of the four seasons, there
was a department for the sale of
fancy articles. Mrs. Emmett At
kris had charge of this, and there
were some really lovely articles dis
posed Of The best part of it, how
ever, WAS that the things were all
made by the young ladies themselves
and by them donated for the pur-
pose. There were pin. cushions, toilet
mats, table scsrfs, towel rings, glove
boxes, sunfowers, fascinators, etc.,
etc. Some Of the ladies who execut-
ell this work are Mrs. Forest Major,
Misses Emma and George Ing ram,
Mrs. Davis Turnkey, Miss lula War

The Modern Tooth.

Fresh from his recent revelations
as to the inevitable results of higher
education on the woman of the
future, Sir James Crichton Browne,
who presided yesterday over meet
ing of the British Dental Associa-
tion, has felt it his painful duty to
call attention to the lamentable con-
dition of the tooth of the present.
The picture he draws is truly desc.
lating, and it is all the more SO in
that it is founded on the relentless
basis of actual investigation. Out
of 1861 children under -, recently
examined, the proportion of those
blest with normal or perfect teeth,
in need of neither extracting nor
filling, was only one in eighteen.
Even more alarming are the dental
statistics Of Leeds, where 90 per
cent. of the teeth of the population
are bad. Furthermore. Sir James
stated that no fewer than $1,000, 600
of artificial teeth are used in En-
gland annually. OF the three causes
to which Sir James Crichton Browne
attributed the present parlous condi-
tion of the human tooth-soft food,
high pressure and Initiated atmos-
phere-the first, at least, is by no
means an inevitable condition of
latter-day life. On the other hand,
the nervous tension of modern eX-
istence and the growth of large
towns are factors which cannot be
eliminated from the great dental
problem, and are bound to exert an
increasingly destructive influence on
the type of the coming man. We
are rapidly tending toward an era of
total badness, and this, it seems, is
to DC further aggravated by tooth

the weather allows it does not follow
that they expect unlimited visitors to
enter their houses. Nobody in the
Chinese quarter is likely to be ugly but
q great many are as full Of self-respect
as if they lived on Fifth avenue
or on one of the swell streets which
cross that fashionable thoroughfare.
They sit on their doorsteps and tire es-
capes in full view Of every one, for to
the Chinaman privacy is desirable only
for vicious purposes. Visits are ex-
changed as informally as among the
Dutch founders of the city, and the
sidewalks are crowded with men chat
ting with one another. Window shades
are not drawn, so any one may pry into
the domestic affairs of John Chinaman
to his hearts content
Indeed, one must look aside from the
Chinese if he would see the dark side of
Chinatown. The Celestials have their
vices, chief among which are gambling
and opium smoking, but more quiet,
harmless lot of people can not be found
in the best streets OF the city. The
miseries and mysteries OF the vicinity
ore to be found not among the Asiatic
heather but in the houses in which
Caucasans huddle together. Why lodg-
ing houses and family tenements should
be popular in part of the city which is
full OF beings whom the lower classes
profess to abhor is hard to explain; that
they are there, and fully occupied, can
be seen at glance. Perhaps the occu-
pants have learned by experience that
the Chinese are inoffensive neighbors;
certainly no other class of men drink so
little or make less trouble for those who
do not annoy them. 1t never is hard to
find drunken men of other nationalities
in Chinatown, but a Keeling Chinaman
would be a curiosity. The American
corner loafer is there with his irrepressi-
BILE inclination to make Rome howl;
tramps of any and all nationalities are
there, too, for part of Chinatown s
streets are storage places for wagons at
night, and wagon is as good bed as
any tramp asks for in warm weather.

the various tenement houses in the vicin-

Treacherous Soil.

Snipe-shooting on an Irish bog is
an excellent test of a gunner's Skill
and enthusiasm. In" Forty-tlve Years
Of Sport" Mr.. Corballis says that he
was out shooting with Lord Germans
town, who weighed two hundred and
thirty pounds, and his agent, weigh
ing two hundred and ten, when they
came to a bog swarming with snipe.
The walking was dangerous, for at
every step the surface of the moss for
fifty yards around rose and fell like a
wave of the sea.
Suddenly Lord Gormanstown put
his feet on tuft of grass, and down
he went up to his armpits. r.ie
agent shook with laughter, which SO
disturbed the bog he stood on that it
gave way, and let him in up to his
armpits.
A man was sent to the nearest
house, mile away, for rope, and
the two heavy men, after remaining
in the bog for three-quarters of an
hour, were hauled out.
An experienced bog-shooter. if he
finds himself going down, throws
himself fiat on his side or back, and
at the same time throws his gun to
his attendant, generally an unshod
"gossoon, who rarely fails to catch it.
The sensation of being begged is
very unpleasant, but if man throws
himself on his side or back, there is
strength enough in the peat to sup
port his body.
One Irish snipe-shooter, Mr.. Fos-
ter, of Dublin, was so cool that he
had been known, when begged and
going down, to kill a bird with his
right barrel, another with his left,
and throw his gun for friend to
catch.
