At the bottom of the bottle Is found

Then comes on top OF that a hetero-

where the fat is wedged in the neck.
TEST OF GOOD MILK.
Good milk should register between
twelve and a half and thirteen per cent.
of fat, and when It is below that 1t is
unquestionably watered or skinned.
Rich milk will, of course, show a larger
percentage of fat, but the minimum is
twelve and half per cent, and when
1t is below that 1t is impure under the
laws Of the state. Prof. Mcdonald will
probably leave here tomorrow to pur-
sue his Investigations in New York.
When he will have completed his work
the department of agriculture will have
at its command a report showing just
what kind of milk every large dealer
in the principal cities of the state is
dealing out to it's customers and will
also have a good idea of the general
health condition Of the cows of the
commonwealth.

JAPAN'S POLICY.
Claims There Is No Desire to Annex the
Hawaiian Islands.

New York, May 31.-The World
says: Marquis Ito, who has just ar
rived in this city en- route for London
and the queens jubilee, politely re-
fused to be interviewed, on the plea
that he was too fatigued after his long
journey, but Marquis KIDD, who speaks
English fuently, answered for him
some questions concerning the policy OF
Japan.
1.-The rumors of Japan's desire to
annex Hawaii" he said, "are mere
idle gossip. We sent a man-of-war
there to protect the interests of our
countrymen. That is all. After our
experience in Formosa we do not want
to annex Hawaii, nor anything else at
present"
MARQUIS KIDD said the japanese have
the most amicable feeling toward
Americans and hoped pleasant rela-
tions would always continue.
81 want to correct one mistake that
is quite general. Marquis Ito is not
being sent to England as special rep
resentative at the queens jubilee, but
as member of the suite OF Prince
Arasugawa, a member of the imperial
family, who will fill that position for
the government on that occasion. We
will sail soon and join the prince in

She IL the Most harming SOVEREIGN
Lady in All Christend I'm.
"They are good honest people," was
the comment recently made by a dis
tinguiShed member Of the Society of
st. Petersburg, concerning his young
Emperor and Empress. 1t Is strange
compliment to be addressed to people
Of their rank Yet it serves to portray
them as they are and to convey the
impression which Nicholas and his
lovely wife produce upon all those with
whom they are brought into contact
Sincerity and absence of affectatiou are
even still more rare ut the courts Of
the old world than they are in modern
society. Indeed, court life is made up
to a great degree of shams and artiti-
ciality. When, therefore. one finds
people there who are entirely natural
and thoroughly sincere, 1t is like sort
Of bright and cheering sunshine pierre
ing through the haze and fog
This sincerity on the part Of the
young couple Is in great measure due
to the influence Of the Czarina, who
many qualities not only of her lament
ed mother, the late Grand Duchess
Alice of Hesse, but likewise of her
venerable grandmother Queen Victo-
ria. The Czarina lost her mother-the
most brilliant, attractive and popular
of all British princesses-at very
early age, and from that time forth her
m JeI, al ! H.,
her aunts, Princess Beatrice and the
Empress Frederick, and her cousins.
Princesses Maud and Victoria Of
Wales, being especially devoted to her.
But the one who most fully assumed
the place of her mother was good old
Queen Victoria herself, and it was to
her that sunny" (the pet name by
which the CZarna used to he known
among her relatives) turned for counsel
when hesitatlng between her love for
Nicholas on the one hand and her re.
luctance to abandon the faith In which
she had been reared on the other. The
advice which Queen Victoria gave her
is best shown by the fact that the mar
rage took place.
What is so winning about the Car
ina Is her eagerness to please, the man
fest delicacy Of her sentiments the
innocence Of mind that is far above
the average in the quality of its intel
lect, and last, but not least, the lovely
face, exquisite figure and perfect car
riage. all of which contribute to make
her the most charming sovereign lady

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins & Company's Review
OF Trade.

1t was quiet week in the wheat
market last week. The bulls continne
to have the benefit of the statistics;
the bears of the speculative dullness
and of the relative cheapness of all the
other grains. The crop news was
about equally divided. Complaints
came from abroad. particularly from
France. On the other hand, the adj
vices from the Northwest were exceed
ingly bearsh. The extreme South
west had also great deal to say of an
early harvest. AT the opening of the
week there was a considerable shipping
business, and the seaboard did fair
export trade from Monday up to the
Saturday close. Here there was a
lessened demand during the latter half
of the week The out movement, how
ever, as the result of sales made the
week before, was very large; sufficient
to lead to the expectation Of reduc-
tiOn in the Chicago stock Monday of
1000, 900 bushels. Prices continued to
show premiums" instead of Garry
ing charges" the fact unquestionably
which troubled the bears more than
any other. May was lc over July at
the close and July &c over September.
That sort of relationship left no room
for any of the usual philsophizing
about burdens. 1t was apparent
from the quickness with which shorts
took alarm on any news unfavorable
to them that they recognized that
they were granting all the advantages
at the start.
There will this week probably be
tiaring announcements of harvesting in
Indian Territory and Texas. 1t will
not be many days before the crowd be-
gins to anticipate the June 10th govern
ment report, which will give the first
announcement as to spring wheat area
and condition. The former will show
a large increase and the latter will he
high.

A SPANISH WARNING.


Havana, May Bel Diario de la
Marina in a leading editorial says:
1--WE see in the American newspapers
evidence that there are certain social
classes in the United States not sutfi-
GENTLY alive to the importance of the
advice, Don't monkey with the lion s
tail. These classes are remarkable
for the eagerness with which they
evade jurisdiction in affairs, which,
like the Cuban war, are exclusively the
affairs OF Spain. The persistence with
which they recognize the bcligerency
of the insurgents is crazy and ridicu-
lOus. The important conservative in
terests of the United States should not
forget that the patience Of Spain may
soon become exhausted. The Spanish
government has given abundant proofs
of its good will by ignoring the many
inconvenience that have been caused
by resolutions in congress. Those in
terests ought to be thankful to rs for
our abnegation.
But in case the sword should be
unsheathed, Spain would certainly not
be the heaviest loser in the fight.
Spain has sent 200. 600 troops to Cuba
to settle domestic difficulty. What
would she not do in the event of a for
eign war, with the nation which for a
century has abused our patience by ig-
noring Spanish honor and chvalry?
President Mckinley should consider
this carefully, and if he is to deal with
US as enemies let him take the advice
of an enemy and no longer trltie with
