Mice know eosSd Butter.

A novel method of testing the quality OF
butter has been accidentally discovered. A
number of butter samples were recently sent
to a chemist for analysis. The butter wrap
pers, after being discarded, were left lying
upon the laboratory table all night. The
next morning the chemist found that ten OF
the twelve wrappers had been completely
cleaned by mice, while two remained un-
touched. Having made his analysis he found
that of the twelve samples ten were pure,
natural butter, the other two being margar-
inc, and this was contained in the two wrap
pers which had been left untouched by the
mice. Not knowing how to explain the oc-
currence, the chemist placed quantity Of
butter in one corner Of the dish and In the
other corner similar quantity of margarine.
He then placed the dish On the table until
next morning, when the natural butter had
disappeared; the margarine showed no
traces of having been disturbed, except where
it had been very gingerly tested. After sew
eral experiments it was thoroughly demon
strated that mice will only eat margarine
when there is nothing else to satisfy their
Aunger, but will eat natural butter whenever
the opportunity arrives. The natural infer
ence is that householders have always at
their command very reliable means of test
ing the purity of at all events one indispensa-
BILE article of their commissiariat.

Keen a Straight Rack.

A physician. writing on the subject of the
benefits of cultiyatlng an erect carriage, urges
It's special Importance as matter Of health.
A body bent forward by the shoulders and
mid-splne causes compression of the vital
organs, the true place at which to bend the
body being at the hips. Many people are
ignorant of this, and instead of keeping the
head erect and the shoulders well back, and
bending forward, when necessary, from the
hips, round their shoulders, crook their
spine and crane their head and neck forward
in most ungainly manner, continuing this

q Russian Priests Narrow Escape
From a Mob.
During the recent popular excite
ment and riotous demonstrations in
Russia, growing out OF the outbreal,
OF cholera, a priest at Saratoff was
attacked by mob. A man had
shouted upon seeing him: There's
the man that seized me and buried me
alive Pve only this instant escaped
from the grave that he put me in."
The excited people thoroughly con-
WINGED that there was murderous
conspiracy against them rushed upon
the priest with cries which showed
their determination to put them to
death. The priest folded his arms
and smiled. "You have just come
out OF the grave, you say?" he called
to the man. aye, that 1 have"
''Then how" asked the priest, "does
it happen that you have had time to
get drunk already" As it was found
that the mans breath smelled OF
liquor the laugh was turned upon him
and the crowd left the priest un-
molested.

Carel essness in Building.

To the Editor Of The Evening star:
In view OF reports from experts as to the
safety Of certain large buildings 1 would like to
call attention to the fact that experts generally
pass upon sAe question Of the safety of the
building, as far they can determine from the
appearance Of the walls, as seen from the out
side course Of brick and the plastering covering
the inside course OF brick work. They rarely
cut into the walls to see il they are really AZ
they appear. lately saw the stone work in
the foundation Of a large building on street
uncovered and there was not particle Of NOR
tar to a depth Of five six inches into the wall
to hold the rock together. Not enough atten-
ton is paid to stone or brick work by the
builder contractor. He subjects these i'm
portant parts OF the building to a mason. The
builder hardly ever goes upon the scaffold to
examine the stone or brick work to see if the
work Is properly done. know that often the
middle courses Of brick or stone work is put
into the wall dry, no mortar or cement being
used to properly tie the work together. Con-
Steering the great importance Of this part of
building there should certainly be an inspector
appointed for every large building whose sole
duty should be to look after the proper build
ing Of the walls. After eighteen years expert
ence as a builder in many OF the large cities of
the United States find the same conditions
everywhere and have often expressed myself as
surprised that reputable builders were SO indif-
ferent to what ] consider the most important
part of building construction. W. E. c.

A WEEKS HEAVY WORK.
Large Number Of Prisoners in the Poll
Court-InsufYicient Accommodations.

Large Number OF Prisoners in the Police
Court-InsufficientA Accommodation.
This week has been heavy one in the Police
Court and the judges have had plenty Of work
to do. During the week 295 prisoners have
occupied the three cells. and Of that number
seventy-five we're females. The arrest Of
women has been the cause Of much comment in
Police Court circles lately, and instead of
two or three Of them being locked up daily they
now number from six to twenty As here
tofore published the cell room is wholly
unfit for the Incarceration Of prisoners,
there being room for not half the number that
is usually packed in the three cells. In each
cell there is seating capacity for seven persons,
but it is not q rare thing to put twenty Ave
victims in each Of them. During the hot
weather much suffering Ia caused by the pris-
oners being put in cells where there IL no
ventilation whatever.
II is not the fault Of the judges that there Is
not more room for the prisoners. for when the
improvements were being made they wanted
the large room put in order for female cell,
but the District officials who we're dealing out
the appropriation held that NO money could be
expended for that purpose.

Seven little colored boys. dressed in clean
suits Of linen, marched into Judge Miller's
court yesterday and stood in q row. A paper
on which their names were written had been
filed and the paper set out that they we're desti-
tute of proper homes. They had been brought
from the Home for Destitute Colored
Women and Children, all having reached the
age OF twelve years, and under the rules Of the
institution they could no longer be held there.
Most of the boys were orphans. although some
Of them we're abandoned children or those who
were taken there because they did not have
good homes.
Agent Lewis Of the board Of guardians was
present in court, and he said he was ready to
take the boys and care for them. He said he
would provide suitable homes for them, and in
providing the homes he said great care would
be taken in order to determine the fitness Of
those who were to take them.
Judge Miller made an order committing the
boys to the charge of the board OF guardians,
and Agent Lewis took charge Of them.
