BLOSSOMS BY STEAM.
Tulips That Were "FOrced" by Hot Pipe
That Lay Near Them.

Tulips That Were "Forced" by Hot Pipes
That Lay Near Them.
Spring seems to have arrived in spite
of the chilly wind in Central park, New
York, if the tulip bed on the northeast
side Of the arsenal can only have been
trusted as a herald of the new season.
That tulip bed is gay deceiver. All
over the bed the spearhead leaves of
the plant are showing. Just at the cor
ner of the old building there is a bright
red flower, and several partly opened
buds are clustered near it,
That is what makes it look like
spring in that neighborhood But it is
noticeable that the bed ON the other
side of the building is not so far ad-
vanced. The reason why this particular
bed could make such a brave show was
that lot Of steam pipes, connecting
the restaurant house just across the as
phalt walk with the main building,
lies just about two feet below the sur
face of the ground. The heat from these
pipes forced the tulips, as the gar
deners say, and gave them an immense
advantage over the less favored tulips
that were doing their own growing all
by themselves around the corner of the
building.

Serum From the Blood of Horse Does
the Work.
DR.. Alvah H. Doty, health officer of
the port, assisted by DR.. T. D. Fitzpat-
rick, has recently been trying to discov-
er an antitoxine for the bubonic plague,
which has been making ravages in In
dia. He made the following report on
the subject to President Wilson of the
health board:
During the early part of February a
temporary laboratory was established at
Swinburne island for the purpose of
studying the bubonic plague bacilli,
and, if possible, to produce a plague
antitoxine. Work was begun on Feb. II,
when animals were procured for the pur-
pose
son Feb. 26 a horse was inoculated
with culture of plague bacillus This
was repeated on March and 8. In Or
der to determine how early the serum
might have acquired antitoxic qualities,
about pint of blood was drawn from
the horse on March 10 for experimental
purposes. From this One-half a pint of
serum was secured.
about one cubic centimeter was in
jected into white mice. After 10 hours
these were inoculated with culture of
the plague bacillus. These remained
alive. Several into which serum was
not injected died, showing the efficiency
of the serum in the cases of those that
lived. New York Tribune.

Chickle is one of the queerly named
things which the republicans have
fished out of the free list and made du-
liable, at 10 cents pound, in the new
tariff bill. 1t is said the fine Italian
hand of trust is pulling the wires IN
this matter. Chickle is extensively
used in the manufacture of chewing
gum. Certain manufacturers have
laid in considerable supply of the
stuff, while certain others have no
stock at all, never dreaming that it
would be made dutiable.

WORLDS COTTON SUPPLY.
The United States Produces More Than
Half of 1t.

Half of 1t.
According to the best sources of in
formation, the worlds supply of cotton
in 1895 aggregated IS, 200, 900 bales, or
z, $50, 600, 600 pounds. Of this i'm
mense crop 10, 800, 900 bales were pro-
duced in the United States, 1880, 900
in India and 634, 900 in Egypt. The
remaining bales were produced in the
various parts Of the globe. In different
countries different standards of meas
urement obtain, and in no two cOun-
tries is the weight of bale of cotton
exactly the same.
The American bale averages $50
pounds, the Indian bale 400 pounds
and the Egyptian bale III pounds
Some idea Of the vast extent Of the
worlds cotton area may be gathered
from the fact that in the United States
alone it covers over 20, 600, 900 acres.
In 1880 the worlds total output of cot
ton aggregated only $50, 900, 600 pounds,
or II times less than in 1895.
Within a single decade, however, the
product almost doubled, amounting in
1910 to 1892, 900, 900 pounds Since
then the worlds product has been as
follows: 1891, 900, 900 pounds in 1860,
4,039, 000,0 900 pounds in 1880 and
1880, 900, 900 in 1895.
From these figures some idea of the
vast Importance of the cotton plants as
factor in the worlds growth and
progress may be obtained

LOOKS BRIGHTER FOR CUBA.

The Cubans are entertaining the
hope that it is SPANS purpose to aban-
don Cuba. The basis of this hope,
says the Savannah News, is the fact
that General Weyler has been notified
by the Spanish government that Spain
can send no more troops to Cuba, and
the further fact that the discomfort
which exists among the Spanish SOL
diers on the island is very great.
These soldiers have not been paid, it is
SAID, for seven months, and the feeling
amO lg them is such that General Wey
Ter has apprehensions of mutiny.
Another thing which is attracting
attention and causing comment is the
taking away from the volunteer forces
the improved rifles with which they
were originally armed and giving
them old guns which have been in the
Spanish arsenals in Cuba since the last
Cuban war. This action is only eX-
plainable on the ground that the Span
ish troops are to be withdrawn from
the island, and it is desired that they
shall take with them to Spain the new
and improved rifles, leaving with the
volunteers the guns of an inferior
quality.
In avery few days, probably, it will
be clearly understood what Spain's
plans are.
