BLACK MILK, BUT GOOD.

weeks ago a Durham Alderney COW. AGED

of il set for four hours nearly two inches
of cream, little lighter in color than the
milk, would raise TO the top. Two gal
Ions of the cream were churned and four
pounds Of butter were secured.
The butter was examined by chemist
who pronounced it perfect butter only in
color, and gave the reason for the color
something yet unknown TO science in the
blood of the animal. The butter much
resembles coal tar, and has a delicious
taste People are coming from far and

INGENIOUS MACHINERY.

lN6ENlOUS MAC1lNhh1.
The machinery for developing and APP
plying power is one of the most ingenious
bits of steam engineering to be seen. 1t
consists of a novel water-tube boiler,
built of asbestos cloth at the sides and
the thinnest sheet steel on top. The
water is contained in about 1900 bent
copper tubes only three-eighths inch in
diameter, heated by over 1000 gas Jets
arranged in rows. The fuel is naphtha
or gasoline, which is stored in a liquid
form and pumped into a vaporiser which
transforms ii into gas and supplies it at a
high pressure. All manner of cunning
lodges are associated with this fuel
supply. For instance, there is an exceed
ingly pretty automatic escapement which
controls the fuel pump according to the
pressure in the vaporiser; and the thrush
of the gas, at rate OF two miles per
minute, is utilized to suck in the neces-
sary amount of air as well, both being I'M
der the most perfect regulation.
The feed water for the boiler is supplied
through rows of pipes no larger than one
eighth inch in diameter. These are
heated by the waste products from the
flames with such success that the water
is raised TO $50 degrees tat which temper
allure it does not boil on account of the
pressure) and the gas products them
selves are so completely robbed of their
heat that they do not even blister the
Brunswick BLACK on the thin sheetsteel
covering which represents the top OF the
boiler There is a beautiful automatic
gauge for registering the amount of feed
water passing into the boiler, anu another
ingenious device by which the pressure
of the water itself is made TO give the
necessary circulation. With this APP
paratus steam can be got up in. the in
credibly short space of half a minute.
The whole structure weighs zoo pounds.
ARlDE ON TIE MACHINE.
A ride on the machine is described as
follows:
"A turn of lever set one of the pro-
pellers IN motion, and as the revolutions
became swlfter ana swifter the slender
frame work shivered and shook. When
the second started hurricane blew up
The machine rocked violently backward
and forward, straining at the anchor that
held it, and threatening TO break all to
pieces; clouds of shayings and debris
arose behind, showing what the force of
the push must be; aud at last, when
everything was ready, and the propeller
were at maximum speed a shriu whistle
gave the order to let 20, - and the great
birdlike structure bounded forward with
the speed Of an express train upon its
brief career across the meadows

ness OF the frame gave feeling of in
stability, and when the lift came on To
the aeroplane one hardly seemed TO touch
the ground Every heart rose to its
respective mouth, aud every hand grasped
convusiyely at some solid object. as
though life depended on holding on, and
the general sensation was one OF rushing
through space on the crest of fierce
tornado

machine as IL runs along the ground
What nying in it was like, will probably
soon be told.

Shanghai, J0lye6.LNow -that-hestillties
have begun between China and Japan
over Corea, stories of the terrible mis-
rule of the peninsula. are coming out 1t
has been reported that. the assassination
of Kim Hum was the real cause ofthe
uprising of the Togaku-to, or seceders.
Nothing could be further from the truth
This society was formed at least two
years before Kim came to his end, and it
was brought into existence solely to
redress grievances which had become in-
suppOrtable.
An erroneous impression of the influence
OF Kim IN Corea has been given by Japa-
nese writer's. The simple fact was that
kim had been in exile in Japan so long
that he had no strong partiSans left in
Corea He had dropped out, and his
name was only used as a sort of rallying
cry by young men who We're dissatisfied
with the government. His relatives
counted Tor nothing, as they were obscure
and poor. His death created'a sensation
merely because il was the climax Of years
of espionage and treachery.
The Iogaku-tO was formed of prominent
politicians who were frozen out of public
otices and by merchants and others who
had been ruined by the exactions of the
palace officials and the district man
darns. What these exactions were can
only be appreciated by one who has lived
IN the Orient and seen the utter disregard
of personal rights shown by the district
magistrates, and the cynical contempt for
legitimate complaints exhibited by the
higher Officers who are supposed To look
but for the interests Of the people In
Corea this oppression of the class that
has no influence with the authorities
went beyond anything ever seen in China
Here is an instance Of the ruin brought
upon man by the intrigues Of those iu-
power:
In one of the remote procedures near
the Chinese line lived a farmer who had
owned for years small tract Of land and
cow. They merely suficed to give him
an ordinary living The governor, learn
ing of his, independence, appointed the
farmer an honorary officer OF the district.
or courGe the plan was to force the
farmer TO return this favor with a pres
ent, as the governor supposed he had
saved money and was, therefore, a good
subject tor squeeze. SO The Yamen run
ners who carried the governors commits
sion to the farmer were Instructed to
yield to torture the man Till he gave up
his hoard.
These runners are the curse of Corea,
as they are in China. Their uniform and
position fill them with Importance, aud
their greed is something which fills the
country people with fear. They are al

certain amount of money, bat the man

a HUNTER KILLED BY TIGERS
The Wounded Beast Charged Rescue
Party and Elephant
Dehra Correspondent of Indian Paper.

Dehra Correspondent of Indian Paper
1t was my melancholy business to re
cord fatal accident that has Just
happened to Mr. Charles Peach, an old
resident of Dehra, who for many years
was in the employ of the late Frederick
Wilson. Mr. Peach was staying with
that excellent sportsman, Raah Runbee
Singh at hamsrau, in the Eastern Dun.
He was himself keen and experienced
shikari, and had got up at o'clock in the
morning TO stalk stays in the Der Beri
Pass leading over the Sewaliks, taking a
single man with him. About O'Clock A.
m, while the rajah was fishing near
camp, he was horritied by the man rush
ing in TO say that his master had been
seized and mangled by tiger
The raJah Immediately ordered his ele-
plant and howdah, and after sending a
haSty letter to Messrs. Armstrong and
Barlow, whose bungalows are a few miles
or, to come up TO assist, set out for the
scene, guided by the servant who had
brought the news. The mans story was
lncoherent, but the substance of it was
that he had heard a tiger in the Rau
which his master followed and then fired
at twice. There were a tiger and tigress
together, but his master had selected the
tiger. The first shot crippled the tiger.
and Mr. Peach then fired the second and
waited sometime after, hearing a noise,
he raised himself, and the tiger, catching
sight of N, charged, seized him, and
dragged him about twenty yards. The
servant, according to his own account.
then ran forward and drove the tiger of,
when Mr.. Peach told him to run back to
camp about three miles OF and bring
the rajah to his assistance.
When they arrived at the place where
the accident had happened the man
seemed to have lost his hearings, and while
they were searching the ground around,
the mahout remarked some broken bushes
a few yards away on the other side OF the
small ravine which they were exploring.

the tiger charged out down the bank and
Sprang upon the elephant, digging its
claws. deeply into his TANKS Then a
struggle took place which was anything
but pleasant for the occupants of the
howdah, the elephant not attempting TO
run, but stoutly endeavoring 10 kick the
tiger oil. The ralah had hred two hasty
shots as the Tiger sprang out, but he now
had 10 do all he could to keep from being

however, had not exhausted his resources
Tor evil, as he followed out precisely the
same tactics with the man who had pur-
chased the land and the COW. This VIC
tim in turn had 10 sell the land. The
process OF ''sQuee zing'' went on three
times, till one had the courage to buy the
land. Then the governor seized the land
as unclaimed property and added IL TO ais
possessions.
This is said on good authority to have
been an actual occurrence in COrea
recently 1t simply serves to show why
even lOng-Oppressed people will rise at
last and strike one blow for their rights.
The COreans have nothing TO hope from
China, for the methods in vogue on the
peninsula are precisely the same as those
IN the middle kingdom, save that in COrea
the magistrates are more shameless in
their eXactiOns than they dare to be in
China. What the COreans, who lately
rebelled. wished 10 accomplish was TO
overthrow the present dynasty and get
ruler VINO would appeal to foreign powers
for protection. Even the rebels do not
want Japanese rule, for the name of
Japan is mated throughout Corea They
desired to throw OF the yoke of
China and govern themselves, with
the assurance from the European pow
ers that neither China nor Japan
should attempt to annex them. China as
suzerain of COrea is utterly pOwerless to
keep her in time of distress. Chinese
troops aided to put down the rebels, but
it was costly help, for the Monaghan sol
diers left a path of desolation like the
trail of a swarm of locusts. They ate
the country bare wherever they travelled,
and they committed atrocities such as
Elaubert described in "Salammbo" as in
cidents of the siege of Carthage by the
Roman mercenaries.
As far as that right goes, Japan has
fully as much excuse for interfering in
the affairs of Corea as China has. China's
suzerainty was gained by fore, and for 200
years she has exercised it to the contin-
ued detriment of the weaker nation 1t
is now high time that she relinquish
what she has proved herself incompetent
to manage wisely -~-.- ...' -

QUEER MRS. VAN BEUREN.
She Kept Cow and Raised Chickens
on Land Worth 81, 900, ooOPer,Acre.


From the New York World.
There is a bit of Grape on the door of
the finest downtown residence in New
York. Were this item of news being
given to New Workers a few years ago
there would have been considerable hest
fancy before the expression '.downtowrr,'
were applied, for it is a term that, so TAR
as relating TO residential properties in
this city is concerned, has always seemed
to mean deterioration Of values. For at
least ten years this brOwn-stoue mansion
has seemed TO all passers-by as strangely
out of keeping with its surroundings as
an Italian chateau would be among the
tepees and wigwams of the Arapahoe In
dians. Being thus uniquely situated, it
has. of course, come in for great deal of
attention. 1t stands on the north side of
Fourteenth street, midway in the block
between Fifth and Sixth avenues.
Within the silent house there lies to-
day the lifeless body Of a remarkable old
woman. She was Mrs. Mary STingler
Van Beuren, and her husband, Michael
Van Beuren, died twenty years ago. In
her youth she had gone with her husband
TO what was then an outlying suburb, and
there they had settled. They didn't have
at that time the fine brown stone mansion
in which she died, but they had "A very
comfortable frame residence on the
Spingler farm, in the immediate vicinity,
and she was very well satisfied with her
surroundings
Such a farm as that of the Spinglers is
seldom heard of outside Of fairy books. 1t
turned to gold with a rapidity which is
simply breath-taking. IL enjoyed the fe-
hcity of being situated on a cow-path
which is now Broadway. The farm ex-
tended from a point Just west of where
London monument now stands TO what is
now Sixteenth street, and stretched
away westward beyond the present line
OF Sixth avenue. The old woman who
lies dead in the big house used TO pick
field daisies on the site of Tinanys lew
elry Store. Not being given To social
pleasures or emulous Of keeping lin the
swim il is no wonder that she saw no
necessity Of removing from the old home
stead when the business growth OF New
York forced res licences out of this valu-
able territory.
There are people a good deal younger
than the Van Beureus who remember
when Fourteenth stTCetwas a fashionable
and sequestered thoroughfare. 1t is not
50 very long ago. Mrs Van Beuren was
proud Of her new home. 10 was with re.
luctance that she gave up her front gar

There will be no more beer Isl l1eg and

agreement was reached last week be-
tyveenrthe Savannah brewery and the
Savannah Ice Delivery Company by which
the latter agrees to withdraw nom the

withdraw from the ice business in com
petition with the ice company.
II is understood that the ice company

The Georgia Brewing Association is not
