COPPERlNGs.

Joe. StArmand left this morning for . ehort trip to Tombstone for his health. He expects to return in the course Of @ week or 60.
 There used to be lots Of Pop. i- Bisbee but, judging from the number of votes given to Bucky, there has been fall- ing away from some cause or other.
 Since the rainy season is & thing of tho pact and the time oi year for cold nights has arrived, this bailiwick is afflicted with an epidemic oi bad colds.
 Drummers continue to arrive by the score and as each appear to be satisfi- ed with the orders they receive if augers will for the commericsi pros psrity Of our camp.
 IL reported that Black Jack intended to svoop in on Bisbee and rob the entire community. If he could rake in some of the winnings made on the recent election he would indeed have g plethorio purse.
 Bisbee is the boss mining camp in the country, and bids fsir to hold this most snyiable position for years so come. The Queen is producing large quantities daily, and while the coun- try has been convulsed from center to circumference ever gold and silver, copper still is king.
 The funeral oi Mre. Julian who died from typhoid fever yesterday, took place from her home this aftessoon about 2 p. m. Deceased vas the vile of Jas, Julian, . converter man in the employ Of the Copper Queen. and had only been married for . few months.

Comedy In "HamIet."

Here is a story about Joseph Herbert,
the actor author, with moral: When he
was young man, he joined a company out
in the wild west to take the part of the
First Gravedigger in Hamlet " He found
when he went to dress that the coat which
he was to wear was too big for him, so he
put on two vests to pad himself out.
He found that the audience wanted
lively gravedigger, with plenty of fun in
1t, and he found, too, that when the audi
ence discovered that after removing one
vest there was another under it he got a
good laugh.
The next night he put on a dozen vests,
which he proceeded TO remove one by one,
and as each vest was taken off the audience
roared. Herbert thought he had made a
great hit, until one night, when i'm the act
of shedding the different layers of vests, he
turned around and discovered that the Sec
ond Gravedigger was putting them on as
fast as he discarded them.
1t was the Second Gravedigger who was
getting the laugh; hence the two weeks
notice. New York Herald

IN THE AQUARIUM.

white, but some fine effects in subdued
tones and of appropriate designs have
been added to the capitals and frieze
In the center of the main floor, directly
under the dome, is the great pool, 80 feet
in diameter and 8 feet deep, which is to be
the home of white whale that has not
yet been captured. Surrounding this, but
outside the central colonnado, are six small
er pools, each of which is IS feet long by
IA feet wide and feet in depth. Around
the interior run the galleries Under them
is a row of wall tanks
The large pools on the ground floor will
be best viewed from the galleries, although
the visitor may walk to their very edge
They will be filled with the larger marine
animals such as seals, porpoises and tur-
ties, and with such smaller inhabitants of
the deep as can live in harmony with
them. The pools are lined with white
porcelain tiles, over which marine plants
trail gracefully.
Much attention has been given to the
proper lighting of the building This is
one of the most serious problems that had
to be solved. Too much light, as was
found after expensive experimenting, kill
ed the fish and promoted plant life in the
tanks to too great an extent, while too lit
for the purpose for which it was meant
The floor tanks are now lighted by hooded
windows in the dome, and from the gal
| leries above every inch of the bottom can
be plainly seen. The wall tanks are ar
ranged even better for observing the move
ments of the finny captiyes, for the light
reaches the spectator from the other side of
the tanks through the glass sides
The lower wall tanks are from 3 to S
feet wide and feet deep, while those of
the upper tier are from to feet wide and
of the same depth. On one side of the
building the tanks are filed with fresh wa
ter, and on the other side with salt water.
thus dividing the two great species of fish.
Beside each tank is tablet on which are
printed the names, scientific and common,
of the fishes it contains, few remarks as
to their habits and a colored plate of each
specimen, so that the exhibition will be
most instructive as well as entertaining.
The fresh water used in the tanks Is
taken from the city aqueducts, while the
salt water is pumped up from tide well
which was sunk under the foundations of
the building. There are now in the tanks
about 20 varieties of fishes, and others are
. constantly being added. An attempt has
been made first to show a complete collec-
ton of varieties native to American wa
tiers, and after this is done foreign speci-
mems and strange varieties will be acquired
from time to time. MARK NORRIS.

NEW YORK AQUARIUM
AN INTERESTING EXHIBITION IN OLD
CASTLE GARDEN.

Finny Beauties Disport Themselves Where
Jenny Lind Sang and Where Millions
of Immigrants First Set Foot on the
American shore.
After four years of experimenting New
York's aquarium is all ready for the pub
lie and from now on will take its place rs
one of the things which the visitor to the
metropolis will feel that it is absolutely
necessary to see New Workers are well
repaid for the time and money that have
been spent on this public enterprise, for
they now have an aquarium which is one
of the finest to lie found anywhere in the
world, and which, as its collections are en-
Tiched from year to year, will undoubtedly
take first place before decade has passed
On the very tip end of the southerly part
of Manhattan Island the aquarium is To-
Gated, and its home is in one of tho oldest
and most historic buildings in the big city.
1t is housed within the walls of what was
once known as Castle Garden a structure
whose varied fortunes are intimately con-
nected with the history of New York for
the past century.
When the circular walls &C Castle Garden
were raised in 1907, they were built on
foundations which were sunk in the waters
of the upper bay 300 yards from the shore.
The government designed it for fort, and
it was first called Castle Clinton. In 1922
the necessity which had FASTENED the build
ing of Castle Clinton had passed, and it
was of no further use as Il fortress, so it
was coded to the city. Then the space be-
tween the shore and the island was filed
in, and the Land thus made was added to
Battery park.
1t was in 1924 that the structure came
: to be known as Castle Garden. 1t was
leased to private individuals, who trans
formed the interior of the old fortress into
an elaborate beer garden and concert hall
After awhile it became known as a play
house, and later was the earliest home of
grand opera in this country. 1t was there
that Jenny Lind first sang and many 9TH
er favOrites, now almost forgotten, ap
peared.
In 1856 the Garden was turned into a
depot for the reception of immigrants, and
during the next 80 years of its existence
was one of the most celebrated buildings
in America. In 1870 the interior was gut
ted by fire, but the solid stone walls were
not damaged in the least In 1890 the
Garden was again vacant For awhile it
was occupied by the naval reserve, but in

structure and began the work of trans
forming it into an aquarium. 1t has cost
more than 5000, 600 to do the work, and
the aquarium is not yet complete but
enough of it has been finished to make a
very interesting exhibition.
The interior of the old fortress has I'M
dergone a wonderful change. The bare
barnlike space has been arranged after the
I ROmancsuue Style. the prput dome. 80 feet
in diameter, being supported by double
row of arches, which rest in turn on mass

Milk fertilization.

The domestic sterilization of milk by
boiling is now much practced in private
houses 1t is apt to be ineffective on &C
count of the difference of temperature of
the fluid in the upper and the lower por-
tiOns of the vessel in which it is boiled. In
the usual method of sterilizing milk by
cooking it in n receptacle placed in boil
ing water-a balm marie, in fact-it is
found that the temperature of the milk in
the upper portion of the vessel rises much
more rapidly than that at the bottom. In
experiments recorded in The British Med
ical journal, in one instance it was found
that after the milk had been on the fire
for l 1 minutes the temperature at the top
was 100 degrees f.. while at the bottom it
was only 1873 degrees +. In another ex-
pertinent, with a stronger flame these diff
ferences were less marked. These tests
prove that the mere scalding of milk by
bringing the outside water to the boiling
point is quite inadequate to sterilize tuber-
culous milk. To insure effective results
it is necessary that the heating process
shall be continued until uniform tenn
perature throughout the entire body of
milk has arisen from 100 degrees f. to
1913 degrees +. This will require an ex-
posture to brisk fire of at least 25 min
utes, In order to be perfectly safe, how
ever, it is recommended that every quart
of milk treated in this fashion be heated
for half an hOur-that is, for about 20
minutes after the water in the outer pan
has begun to boil.
