the provisions OF this section shall be
fined not more than q for each offence" !"
Probably eight out Of every 10 persons
who have occasion TO be frequently on
the streets see any numberscf boys smok-
ing cigarettes; Toys who to.all appear
ances are well within the prohibited age.
And yet il does not appear that the po-
lice ever have similar experiences, Tor so
far as can be recalled few IL any arrests
have been msde under the anti-smoking
and chewing statute. Perhaps the police
men find IL difficult TO determine the ages
OF the smokers who fall under their oh
servstion, or 1t may be they prefer to give
them fatherly warning TO reform rather
than hold them before the court TO have
them punished and their parents mulcted
for their misdemeanor. Whatever The
cause, Ii is certain that the anti-snioking
statute is pretty much OF dead letter,
and the youthful cigarette fiend Is exceed
ingly glad in consequence.
A few days ago the Gossiper called at.
tention to the fact OF the great difference
in weights and measures existing in the
several States of the Union, and to the
effort now being made to secure uniform
iiy tn oughout the country by the adop-
tion OF the metric System. Another I'M
portaot change proposed along the same
iinc u W apply tue uttiihai, VI SNhtsoi
NAL, system TO the measurement OF time.
Under this new system the hour viii be
divided into one hundred equal parts or
minutes, and the min utes into one hun
dred parts or seconds. BY this division
the new minute would he three-fiths as
long as the present one, and the new
second slightly more than one-third the
lenngth of the old one. The advantage
TO be gained is that il Will enable the
expression OF time in hours and decimals
of hours. To illustrate, 10 hours, 10
minutes and IL seconds would be written
under the new system simply 10.I6l2.
That 1t would greatly simplify the record
ing and calculating of time Is apparent
at glance.
The plan contemplates the application
OF the same system TO gcometrical meas
urements by dividing the circle into 240
degrees, each degree into one hundred
hundred seconds, which would make
records and computation very much sim
pier than Is possible under the system
now In use. The reason Tor dividing the
circle into 240 instead OF one hundred de-
grees Is to have the degrees coincide with
the hour. The present hour is universally
accepted, and is of the most convenient
length, nor IL IL was desired is there
any prospect that Ii could be changed.
This much the projectors OF the new sys-
tenn admit, bat there are other obstacles
to the adoption of the universal decimal
system. Ii is pointed out that the linear
month cannot be divided decimally into
days, which is equally true Of the solar
year because Nature never works out her
courses in decimal fractions.

Captains Do Not Favor
West Passage Plan.
Prefer Fog Signals at Various
Points Along Channel.
The Law Against Smoking by Minors
and How II Is Observed.

The Gossiper was greatly surprised to-
day to ind that some of the captains OF
vessels sailing to this port are not very
heartily in favor OF the movement to Sc
cure from the Government a large sppro-
priation for the deepening and otherwise
Improving the channel of the west pas
sage. One would naturally suppose that
all captains of vessels tfat come FREE
quently to this port would be among the
heartiest ard most enthusiastic support
ers vf any proposition to improve the
waterways to and from the ocean. But
,his supposition, in view of what the
Gossiper heard today, would be all a mis-
take. In talking with several captains
1t was learned that they do not attach
much importance to the proposed i'm
provement OF the west passage and tney
did not hesitate to intimate that II wasn't
necessary. certainly not as necessary as
improvements in other directions which
would cost infinitely less and be OF vastly
greater practical value.

About these other improvements the
hardy mariners were very willing TO talk.
They pointed out that the channel in the
upper part of Narrsgansett bay is not a
very easy one TO follow in thick or foggy
weather, even with the lighthouses and
beacons that now mark its.various ranges.
Among the improvements which they
believe ought to be made instead OF the
deepening OF the channel 81 the west pas
sage is the placing of fog signals at sapins
Point, Bullocks Point, Ohio Ledge and
at Fort Dumplings, opposite Fort Adams.
Then they woulo have the channel from
Crawford street bridge Strengthened and
otherwise improved from Point street
bridge TO Harbor Junction wharf. These
changes they ssserl would be far more
valrable TO the shipping interests than
those proposed 10 be made in the west
passage, and, what is equally important,
their cost would be insignificant in COM
parison.
Over on Exchange place, this morning,
three bright little boys, the Oldest OF
whom could not have zen IL ore than IL
years of age, were induiging in cigar
cite smoking carnival. Just why they
selected this bioad and open space for
that purpose is notsvery clear, unless 1t
can be accounted for on the theory that
they expected the wandering winds there
to carry of the moke more speedily and
effectively than elsewhere and thus lessen
the danger OF their capture by the blue
coated guardians of the city's peace. But
whatever their reason they seemed TO en-
Joy themselves immensely for an hour,
and how mnch longer the Gossiper doesn't
know, for on his last trip through that
tborougbfare they were still putting away
like so many young Turks enjoying ST.
esta.
And In this connection il is interesting
to note thst some time ago the General
Assembl prohibited persons under l6
years OF age from smoking or chewing to-
bacco in any form on the public streets.
The law Is very explicit. Ii provides
that "no person under i6 years OF age
shall smoke or chsw in any public street,
place or resort any tobacco in any form
whatsoever. Any such person violating

Senate Proceedings.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l2.-There
was an unusually full attendance
on the republican side of the sem
ate chamber today, as Mr.. Morrill,,
chairman of the finance commit
tee, had given notice OF a motion
to take up the tariff bill.
The deficiency appropriation bill
held it's place as unfinished bust
ness, and there was no disposition
to display it.
Vest secured the adoption of a
resolution calling oD the secretary
of agriculture to report what re-
cent changes have been made in
the quarantine line against cattle
coming north from Texas. Vest
explained that recent publlca-
ton stated the secretary had
issued a proclamation making
radical changes to the detriment
of parties interested.
PETER, populist, of Kansas, came
forward with a lengthy resolution
proposing a senate investigation OF
the circumstances of all recent
bond issues.

DENVER, Col, Feb. 12.-Mem-
beers of the Trades Assembly de-
nounced Senator Wolcott, in severe
words, at their regular session,
and resolutions Of scorn, censure,
and a request for his resignation
were severally offered, but failed to
pass. Some wanted to hang him in
effigy, others to give him drub-
bling with clubs upon his next visit
to Colorado; he was called a Judas
and a Benedict Arnold, and one
wanted the records of the assem-
bly, revised, so that his name
might be expunged where it ap-
peared. The assembly passed res
olutions complimentary to Senator
Tillman.

WOMEN AS FARMERS.
The Outlook for Them to Make a Sure
Profit Not So Glowing as 1t Is Told.

The Outlook for Them to Make a Sure
Profit Not So Glowing as 1t Is Told.
A very recent article on possibilities
in feminine livelihoOds pointed out the
desirability of farming as a peculiarly
delightful way for women to earn their
own living. 1t, the woman who writes
this asserts, is so slow a return for
time and money invested-she blinls
the work entirely-that men are more
and more dropping that for some en-
ployment that will yield them swifter
returns on their capital. She thinks
this a golden opportunity for her SIS
ters to rush in and purchase farms.
They will find the very things that
their sex prize, she goes on to say; a
sure living, a quiet life, moderate re.
turn for outlay and a chance to exer-
else their natural propensity for econ
omies which masculine natures as nat
urally despise and resent. 1t would
be interesting to have this lady point
out who is to do the farm work. Is
a woman, then, to milk the cows before
daylight and in the biting cold and
gloom of winter evenings? Is she to
dig paths in the snow to fodder the
critters?" Is she to hoe corn and plant
potatoes and hill beans? Is she to reap
and NOW and harvest? Or is she to
hire all this and million other
"chores" done for her? And, in the
latter case, where goes her small but
sure" profit? 1t is crying shame
that so many of these so-called ''prac-
teal" hints for women's help are writ
ten exactly after the fashion immor-
talized in "Rudder Grange" Euphemia
and her husband concocted book in
which it was demonstrated that a
house could be furnished for an alb
surdly small sum. When the wife was
called to account for some especially
false item she ingenuously replied:
Yes, we had to make that so cheap,
in order to stick to our assertion that
the whole house could be supplied
within the limit which we had set

HOW TO COOK A TURKEY.
Something which Every Housewife Does
Not Know.

Not Know.
A successfully roasted turkey re.
quires three things. The bird must
be young and tender; it must be care.
fully drawn, stuffed and trussed, and
it must be roasted by a hot fire. Select
young turkey. One that does not
weigh over six or seven pounds is gen.
orally the best. Heavy birds are apt
to be old and coarse in flavor. The tur-
key should be drawn the day it is
killed, but it should be hung in cold
place at least "a hours after it is killed.
One of the mistakes of the ignorant is
to leave the fat in the bird. All the lay
ers of fat under the skin of the breast
and on the inside of the bird that can
be reached must be taken out. If IL is
left in, it gives strong flavor to the
flesh. 1t is not of any use to the cook,
but may be tried out for soap fat.
Chicken fat, on the other hand, though
it should be removed from the bird
when it is cooked, can be tried out for
cooking potatoes and other articles,
and is very fair substitute for olive
oil in salad dressing. The removal of
the oil bag in the tail of the bird is also
necessary, to prepare it for roasting.
This is a matter often forgotten, but
even this small portion of oil imparts
an unpleasant flavor TO the turkey if
it is left in. Remove the tendons
from the drumsticks. Wipe the bird
off carefully, and prepare the stuffing of
dry bread crumbs. This is now pre-
ferred, as more delicious and more
wholesome than the moist dressing of
olden times. Take about two medium
sized loaves of bread. Rub them, after
breaking them apart, on a coarse crater
until the inside is evenly crumbed. Lay
aside the outer dry crusts for drying
and sitting for dried bread crumbs to
be used for breading meats and GRO
quettes. Take the soft inner crumbs.
They should make n heaping quart.
Add tablespoonful of salt, an even
teaspoonful of pepper, an even tea
spoonful of sage, two of summer
savory, and a large teaspoonful of
minced parsley. Rub all these ingre-
dents in the bread crumbs, and add
half cup of butter. Rub this in, and
fin the inside and crop of the turkey.
Skewer the bird carefully. If this is
done properly it will not be necessary
to use a trusting needle, dredge it with
salt and pepper and then thiclily with
flour. Put it in very hot oven on a
meat rack. Dredge little flour in the
pan. When this browns, pour a pint
of hot water under the turkey. Turn
the turkey, to brown it evenly, and
every Is minutes haste it with the
liquor in the bottom of the pan. As
this liquor boils away, add water from
the teakettle. 1t will take about an
hour and three-9uarters for a seven
pound turkey to roast. The best gravy
is made by boiling the giblets slowly
while the turkey is roasting, and by
mixing the liquor from them with the
drippings in the pan. The liver is the
only portion of the giblets saved. Chop
the liver and add it to the gravy, after
sliimming and seasoning it and thick
ening it with a tablespoonful of -four

AFTER MONTEzUMA's TREASURE.
Mexican Tradition That it is Hidden in

Mexican Tradition That it is Hidden in
Tiburon Island to be Tested.
Los ANGELES, Cal, Feb. r.
Colonel John Bradbury, who is at
present in Mexico. has written
some friends in this city outlining
his plans for exploring Tiburon
island, situated in the Gulf OF Cali
fornia. He has purchased the
schooner Lilly Light and armed
her with a Maxim GIN and five
inch rifle. From his mine in Mex
leo he has recruited 115 men, expe-
rienced fighters, and accustomed to
Indian warfare.
The letter further stated the real
object Of the expedition. It seems
that a well authenticated legend
has it that when Montezuma. en-
peror of Mexico, saw his dynasty
was doomed, he determined to pre-
vent the bloody-banded Cortez
from securing the treasures OF the
lucas, so he sent all his gold to
Tiburon and had it buried in a
mountain cave. When the men
who had charge of this task re-
turned he had them offered up as
sacrifices and the secret was lost,
until through curious servants, 1t
was disclosed to Col. Bradbury.
