Lighting the Gas.

Blackened ceilings above the chandelier
generally arise from a careless mode of
lighting the gas. Ii is a frequent practice
to turn on the gas suddenly and TO allow
volume of IL to escape before the match
is applied, the consequence being that
every time this is done cloud of black
smoke rises to the ceiling. The proper
method to treat gas burners is TO remove
the globes every day and wipe them before
putting them on again, to apply match
to the top of the burner and turn on the
gas slowly, so that very small light re-
suits; then, after the globe is adjusted, TO
turn the gas on to the required height. IL
this plan is pursued, the ceilings will not
be blackened and fewer accidents will oc-

Given by German Official I'm the Ceie-
brated Stern Case.
BERLIN May 25.-In speaking about the
sharp criticism of Secretary of State Oh
ney, of the United States, on the course of
the German courts in the Stern case,
Baron Marsehall Won Biberstein said; IF
Mr.. Stern claimed the same respect in
Germany that Germans had enjoyed in
America he should conduct himself while
in Germany in the manner expected from
educated. respectable men temporarily in
America. Mr. Stern has not done this
and consequently punishment was in
ficted accordingly" In cases where Ger
man laws were involved he seemed to
think only German views should have
weight.
He cited the case of the present law con-
corning Sunday now being very vigorous
ly enforced in New York city. Various
Germans had been sentenced TO imprison-
ment and compelled To pay heavy fines.
However, it was never thought that the Ber-
lin government should intervene in their
behalf. Germany, he said, expected SINH
lar attitude on the part of the United
States. He must, therefore, decline to
convey the critical remarks of Secretary
Olney TO the Bavarian government, whose
officials had imposed the sentence upon
Mr.. Stern, or in any way give weight to
these criticisms.

WHY HE WORE KNEE "PANTS."
Explanation of BrecLinridge's Uniform at
the Moscow Reception.

the Moscow Reception.
WASHINGTON. May 25.-Minister Brock
inridges appearance in uniform during
the coronation ceremonies at Moscow, Ii is
learned, was brought about by proper
sense of Difference to the strict require
ments of the Russian court ceremonies.
Ii is required that persons appearing in
court on such occasions shall wear the
uniform of their diplomatic corps, and if
there is no such distinctive uniform that
they shall wear black evening coat with
metal buttons, white vest, knee breeches
and silk stockings.
Breckenridge was early advised of this
requirement and consulted the state de-
partment as TO his course in the matter.
1t was evident that If the minister was TO
attend the ceremonies at all he must COM
ply with this requirement, or else make
an issue that ii would not be in good taste
to raise at such u time. so he was permit
ted to wear this style of garment.
