CANNING IN FRANCE.
Lad Poisoning Said to BE an Impossi-
blllty.

Lad Poisoning Said to BE an ImpoSsl-
bility.
"You should have law in America
he same as we have in France" said
I. Il. Kirkland of Bordeaux, France.
BY our laws such a thing as lead
poisoning in canned goods is an i'm
possibility. Here It is a very great
probability.
sin canning fruits and vegetables in
this country you pursue a very differ
mt plan from the French. Our cans
nave but one piece of soldering. That
IS on the outside and down the front.
where the can is joined. When the
IAN is filled light elastic band is
placed inside. Then the top is milled
to the can by machinery. 1t is then
placed in the steam bath and allowed
to cook for twenty minutes or half
In hour, and sometimes as much as
forty minutes, according to
the goods The air escapes through
the elastic bands and pores of the can.
In America the soldering of the can is
all on the inside. When it is filed the
top is soldered on and then it is placed
in the steam bath. Instead of being
allowed to remain as with us, your
cans are never in the bath over five
minutes Then the top is punctured
with an awl and the air rushes out
After the air has escaped the hole in
the top is covered with drop of hot
solder, which must naturally come in
contact with the goods. Fruits that
are canned with the pits, such as
prunes and cherries, you can buy very
cheap at this time of the year. as they
are very apt to ferment. But they are
not very good as a rule"

Officers Of the San Francisco China
town police squad crawled down into
a dark and dirty basement the other
day and discovered Chinese leper.
When they entered the dark, foul
smelling hole their eyes were unable
to penetrate the blackness until can
die had been produced and lighted.
Then they CROPPED their way back to
the rear of the cellar. humping their
heads on the joists above; then down
. pair of stairs into a deeper and still
fouler pit, where they found the leper
He is an old man, probably 65 years
Of age, and for two years he is said to
have been penned up in a windowless
and almost airless room, the stencil
from which drove the policemen out
when they first ventured in. They re-
turned with lanterns. however, and a
horrible sight was exposed to their
gaze. They found the leper all but
helpless. His whole body was in an
awful condition and the terrible dis
ease had eaten nearly all the flesh
from one of his legs.
When the policemen left the place
an officer was stationed there to guard
the lepers pen. Sergeant Gillen at
once notified the board of health of
the discovery, and Policeman McNanus
went to the headquarters of the Chi
nese Six companies, where the secre-
tary was made acquainted with the
facts The Six Companies positively
refused to render any assistance, de-
claring that the matter was no con-
Germ of theirs, and the policeman was
turned away. The leper must be dis
posed of by order of the board Of
health

Novel Method Of PhotoEraphiag IN En-
emy's Camp
An exceedingly interesting English
invention consists Of a camera COM
bined with a parachute, especially de-
signed for obtaining photographs of
Notifications and of the camps of the
enemy, although pictures may also be
made for general surveying purposes.
The parachute is snugly folded in a
thin case at the end of a rocket which
is fred to the required height and
burst open by means of a time fuse.
The explosion sets free the parachute.
which is protected from injury by
means of a casing of asbestos The
parachute has q number Of thin um-
brella ribs, and these are forced out
ward and kept in that position by
means of a strong spiral spring.
From the parachute a camera Is sus-
pended, and a string held by the oper-
ator is attached by a universal joint to
the bottom Of the device, for the pur-
pose of pulling the parachute back.
The camera is fitted with an instan-
taneous shutter, operated by clock
work, SO as to give several exposures
at intervals. At the back Of the box is
IN arrangement by which the plates
can be manipulated the same ss clock
work. A swinging motion can be
given the camera by the operator. and
this will enable him to obtain success.

.
the Theater.
At the Lyceum theater, Rochester,
two gentlemen sat in the front row
next to the orchestra Directly be-
hind them sat a gentleman and his
wife. A few moments before the cur
tain went up one of the gentlemen in
the front row put his arm on the back
of his companions seat. While talk
ing to his friend he felt slight pinch
on the arm. On looking around he
saw that the lady behind him had
turned to look up to the balcony, and
in so doing had placed her hand on his
arm. Realizing that she had done so
unconsciously, he did not move his
arm
Soon, however, he felt hard pinch.
Thinking that the best way to call the
lady's attention to what she was doing
would be to ask if anything was
wanted, the gentleman turned and
asked:
"What is il, madam"
s'Sir," said the lady. and immedi-
ately the husband blazed up.
''What do you mean by speaking to
my wife?" he demanded.
"Don't mean anything" was the re-
ply, "but I would like to know what
your wife means by pinching my arm. |"
Then both men looked at the lady's
hand, which still rested on the arm.
Both smiled. became q little nervous
and apologized. During the rest Of
the performance the lady kept her
hand in her muff.
