The responsibility for much of the high
play that goes ON in the salons of ST. Pc
tersburg lies at the doors of Marie Pavlov-
ma. When the grand duchess first started
roulette at her weekly receptions, even the
cynical, worldly and somewhat unprinci-
pied society of st. Petersburg confessed
itself startled. The grand duchess, how
ever, declared she was passionately fond
of the game, and consequently when, IA
week later, she attended IL party given in
her honor by her intimate friend, Princess
Betsy Bariatinski, the hostess felt in duty
bound to provide roulette table for the
entertainment of her imperial guest
That settled the matter, for next to the
grand duchess Princess Betsy Is the best
known and most influential leader of Rus.
sian society, and thenceforh the roulette
wheel was considered as de rgueur at all
the receptions and social functions of the
Muscovite gratin. While roulette il now
practically played everywhere at St. Pc
tersburg, doubt if there are any private
houses where such high play goes on as
that of Princess Betsy, who receives every
evening throughout the season. Her salon

LlNCOLN'S DEATH WOUND.
Just where the Fatal Bullet Entered and
the Course IT Took,

One of the assistants to Chief Clerk Syl-
vester of the Metropolitan police depart
ment Is Harry p. Cattell, who has charge
Of the properly room. In his younger days
Mr.. Cattell was an embalmer. On Satur-
day morning, April 10, IA few hours after
the death of the president, Mr.. Cuttcll was
directed to 90 to the executive mansion
and embalm the body.
1t Is many years since the assassination
which excited such profound horror in all
civilized portions Of the globe, and while
every reader knows how the beloved chief
executive met his death comparatively few
people of this generation know Just where
! the fatal bullet entered his body or what
course it took. Mr.. Cattcll showed Il re
porter verbatim copy Of the original re
port, written by an assistant to Surgeon
General Barnes who made the autopsy.
| The following is an exact copy:
! yesterday Surgeon General Barnes, as-
sisted by Drs. Stone, the late presidents
family physician, Curtis, Woodward Crane,
! Taft and other eminent medical men,
made an autopsy in the presence of Presi-
dent johnson, General Augur and General
/ Rucker. The external appearance OF the

stain around both eyes. The fatal wound
was on the left side of the head behind
and in a line with and three inches from
the lett ear. The course of the ball was
obliquely forward toward the right eye,
crossing the brain in an oblique manner
and lodging II few inches behind that eye.
In the track of the wound were found frag
ments of bone, which had been driven for
ward by the ball, which was imbedded
in the anterior lobe of the left hemisphere
of the brain. The orbit plates of both eyes

to something like q feet 10 inches in our

II Is stated that for the serial rights OF
"Treasure Island" X. L. Stevenson receiv-
ed about R120. Ten times that amount
would not purchase tale of equal length
from his pen today. For the serial rights
of "She' II. Rider Haggard got 1900, and
similar amount was paid to Hall Caine
for "The Deemster." For short stories
Rudyard Kipling is still first, though j.
M. Barrie is running him close, and it is
predicted will take the lead.
But the totals for both book and serial
rights received by novelists today are far
below the princely sums that were paid
to Scott, George Eliot, Dickens, Thacke-
ray, Reade and Wilkie Collins. For Rom
ola" George Eliot received 97 900 and
might have had $4,000 more but for her
conscientious regard for art. As there are
many versions of that famous transaction,
we may give the facts, This novelist
agreed to write story for The Cornhill,
for which she was to be paid 100000. 1t
was, however, to run through 16 numbers
instead of the usual ~.
OF this arrangement she did not ap-
prove, and all the arguments of her friends
could not overcome her objections. Final
ly she threw. 93, 900 off the price to carry
her point, IA rare Instance of self sacrifice
for the sake of art. Lord Beacons1eld, it
should be mentioned, received princely
terms for "Endymion"

in his biography of Beaconsfield in the
"Queen's Prime Minister'S Series, " "and

All nutriments consist of two leading
elements-carbonates and nitrates. The
former answers to charcoal, which when
burned throws out heat. Oil, butter, fat
meat and sugar belong to the carbonates
or heating foods. In a hundred parts of
oil there are nearly hundred parts of car
bon or warmth 1t is the same with sug-
ar. Hence in cold weather our system de-
mands more fats and sweets than in sum-
mer.
The nitrogenous foods make muscles and
impart strength. Rice, beans, potatoes,
wheat, corn, oats, beef, etc., belong to
this class. Some of these have also large
proportion of the carbonaceous elements.
Wheaton grits, crushed wheat and gra-
ham bread have all the elements needed
to give warmth and strength to the body
and would keep it in strength and vigor
even if nothing else were eaten for months
together. In Scotland, we are told, whole
families make their entire breakfast
throughout the year ON oatmeal porridge.
White beans have 81 per cent of nutri-
ment and should be eaten more than they
are. In selecting from the meats beef will
be found to be the cheapest and most
wholesome. Good steak contains 35 per
cent of nutriment-19 of nitrogen and IL
of carbon-2 per cent is brain feeding ma
terial, called phosphates. We might con-
tinue the list indefinitely, but it will be
well for every housewife to search ont the
facts and give the subject careful study

The Rattoon cane being milled is as hard
as il is possible for cane to be, having been
subjected to II severe drought during the
whcle period of its growth, and growing on
Land with a trade wind exposure. Our ex-
perience with the Shredder, particularly with
above cane proves it to be Just what our
mills required the shredded cane being better
prepared to have its juice extracted than for
nefly after passing through the first mill.
The first mill Is now allowed to open 9-l6 in.

the old timed groaning, choking, and strain

| Behind the first and second mills we apply
hot water, the quantity for the past ~ days,
as per statement attached has averaged IS

The trash from the last mill is cut up much

The Boilers make steam much easier than

from blowing Off, whereas before great care
was necessary to keep the steam from going

By the use of the Shredder we have dis
