The queen of Spain is 5 feet 2-5 inches; the em- press of Russia. feet 21b inches: the empress of Germany and Queen Vic toria, still smaller. Aside from her height, the young Dutch queen is also of the best build Her 21h-inch waist measure and 42-ineh bust gives an ad- mirable proportion.

With the rise Of the camera and the increasing desire of the people to see what they are reading about. new and great industry nas sprung up in tke United States. The dimensions of that part of the business which devotes itself to securing D lures of public men and events are marvellous. Ten years ago worse than poor wood cuts constituted the only means of placing before the reader the idea of the scene transpiring. To give a faint idea of the change it may be remarked that at the White House the other day. when the final ceremony of clos ing the war with Spain took place, no less than three leading photog- raphers were present More, to the scandal of Minister Cambon and his fellow officials, the whole matter was delayed some minutes because the men at the machines were unable to prop erly adjust their screens. It must not be understood that the president ac- tually sat with pen in his hand or that Cambon was held in the act of signing it to let the photographers catch up. But. nevertheless, the whole affair was delayed some time in order that the American people might see just what was happening.
 It is a common thing nowadays for the big magazines and newspapers to send expert photographers to Wash ington for the express purpose of talk in f nent United States senators and repre- sentatives and other celebrities of the national capital At the same time standard views of the public build ings, officers of the president and the various cabinet officers are taken in stock for use as future occasions may require. h fact, the library of a modern newspaper is supposed to con- l tain photograph of practically every man and woman of prominence in this country, Europe, Asia and Africa, as well as special pictures of foreign capitals and others representing spe- cial views of private life at home and abroad
 To woman belonged the honor of i h. Frances Benjamin Johnson. of Wash ington, really began the business Of developing photographs to such a state of perfection and completeness as to have them used in place of pen and ink sketches. Her pictures were first used Tn magazines as Illustra- tions for descriptive stories about ten or twelve years ago, and since then she has steadily improved in her ort until she is now recognized as prob ably the best amateur photographer of portraits and interior house views in Washington. Her skill is perfected to such high degree that when but one photographer is to be present during an important government function ste is usually selected.

and feet at the back. The runners
should be made of by spruce, 10
| feet long, and should be notched an
inch deep and inches wide to receive
the stills, which should be 2 by 4. When
| floor is used, there will be five of
these beams, placed 8 feet apart and
set on the 2 inch edge, the runner being
notched to receive each beam. The
ends of the beams are cut an inch deep
and inches long, to set In runner.
The top of the beam will be 2 inches
above top of runner when in position,
leaving 6 inches between the bottom
of beam and the bottom of runner.
The house will be better and stronger
if built with floor, and 1t is worth the
additional cost. If no floor is to be
used, the three inner floor beams are
omitted. To stiffen the building where
there is no floor corner brackets are
used, made of 2 by stuff, and toe
nailed to sill and runner.
The windows (a) are made to slide
from the center toward the runners (g),
thus throwing open almost the entire
front of the house and practically con-
verting it into an open shed. The win
dows are fitted with wire screens. A
half window o., as shown In the side
elevation. will be found useful to Sc
cure thorough airing of the house,
which should be aired daily. This win
dow is also provided with a wire
screen. 1t should be at least feet
inches from the back of the house in
order to allow plenty Of room for the
sliding droppings board.
AS shown in the floor plan, a portion
of the house is partitioned off for
roosting room. The partitions are of
matched spruce sheathed with quilt"
with inch dead air space at the
back and 2 inch at the sides. The front
can have burlap curtain on frame, or
the roosting room can be shut off sim
ply by hanging curtains of old carpet
or burlap. These curtains are only
used in cold weather at night, and
when not in use should be hooked up
out of the way.

A PORTABLE HOUSE.

Advantages IL Possesses - Extract
From Description by DIR. Woods.
In Farm Poultry June / Or. p. T.
Woods describes portable scratching
room house. The illustrations and a
portion Of the description are here re-
produced:
While in Rhode Island this spring he
saw a number Of portable houses
which were In use on poultry plants in
that section. From these, with some
additions and notifications, was de-
veloped the portable scratching room
house, for which Mr.. John W. HilI Of
Lynn, Mass, has kindly made us
drawings and specifications. AS will
be noted in the accompanying cut, this
house is built on runners, and, by
hitching horse to 1t and putting roll
ers under the runners, it can be easily
moved about the farm. On level land
and with pair of horses 1t could east
~ be moved from place to place with
out the aid of rollers.
One great advantage of such house
is that the fowls can have a run on
fresh ground every year and the old
runs can be plowed and planted, this
rotation Of crops and poultry proving
alike beneficial to the farmer, his
crops and poultry.
The portable scratching room house
is shed rooted house built on runners
and made with or without floor. A
square house IL by IL feet is the size
recommended, as it makes a conven-
lent, roomy house and is good size to
build, being economical of lumber.
The house stands feet inches high
from the top Of the runners in front

THE HOUSEHOLD.
A Different Sandwich For Each Day
The Latest In Bed Decoration.
Artistic Curtain Hanging.

When luncheon is an everyday affair,
it must be varied or it soon pals. In
the mere matter of sandwiches there
is such infinite variety that one could
have different one for every day in
the year If $50 disposed" There are
the various meat sandwiches chopped
fine and well seasoned-the sliced meat
sandwiches, the meat carved as thin
as wafer, and also well seasoned
with salt, pepper and little mustard
if desired; then cheese sandwiches,
plain or in combination, with celery or
nuts. Egg sandwiches are always APP
petizing, whether made of little
scrambled egg left over from break
fast or boiled eggs sliced or of the
yolks of hard boiled eggs rubbed to
paste and seasoned with melted but
ter, little mustard, salt and pepper or
little mayonnaise dressing. In vege-
table sandwiches there is also infinite
variety. Raw tomatoes sliced, sea-
soned and laid between the slices Of
bread are tasty; finely chopped cab
bage with boiled dressing makes a
sandwich not to be despised, while let
tuce, nasturtium, chopped celery and
water cress are all good and whole
some. All kinds of fish can be made
into mince or paste, with little
lemon juice added. Any kind Of salad
makes sandwich, or the salad may be
put up in Jelly glasses or glass fruit
cans. Swiss cheese with mustard is
another good combination, as are also
olives cut in small pieces and covered
with mayonnaise. For the daintiest
kind Of sandwich try the potted par
fridge stuffed with truff1es.

Last season, when the price for
calves went skyward, many farmers
who had patronized the creamery and
raised the calves on skimmilk thought
they could see more money and less
bother in letting the calves suck the
cows. The indications are that this
year calves will not be worth as much
money, and as the cattle stock of the
country increases to the normal calves
will further decrease in value. Those
farmers who stopped milking and
turned in the calves win then see the
mistake they made. They will find
that their cows are not nearly as good
mixers as they were before, and it
will take them several years to build
up an efficient dairy herd again.
If there is any one thing about dairy
ing that has been thoroughly and com
pletely demonstrated, 1t is that milk
ing makes mixers. The best COW In
the world can be ruined as a mixer in
comparatively short time by simply
letting the calf suck her or by care
lessness in milking. The poorest COW
can be improved by continued and per
sistent milking. The man who has 10
or IL or more cows and milks them
year In and year out, keeps right at 1t
and practices improved methods Of
feeding win get ahead right along. 1t
don't pay to milk the COWS one year
and let the calves suck the next

tan Street Railway company at 3
O'Clock this morning, and a few hours
later the Second, Sixth, and Eighth
avenue line were tied up.
Other lines affected by the strike
order were the Lenox and Amsterdam
avenue, 23rd. 59th, 10th street lines,
all of which are operated by electri-
city.
| The order to strike came suddenly
and took the men by surprise. 1t was
brought about by Master Workman
Piner, who is leading the Brooklyn
strike.
The first act of violence in Manhst-
tan occurred at 9th street and Second
avenue at $50 O'Clock this morning. A
crowd of men held up and wrecked a
car. The motormsn and conductor fled.
| Four arrests were made.
The eliminating incident of a night
of terror in South Brooklyn was the
despe rate attempt to blow up with
dynamite some of.the supporting pillars
of the Brooklyn elevated structure at
Fifth avenue and 35th street.
morning.
Two distinct and heavy explosions
occurred. Patrol wagons filled with
policemen rushed to the scene but they
made no arrests. The miscreants dis
appeared, but frightened aud excited
people kept coming from all directions.
The Metropolitan officials after the
early hours succeeded in opening all
lines on which strike was declared.
At 10 O'Clock it was said that cars were
running nearly on schedule time.
Only about 10 per cent of the en-
ployes, it was declared, had struck.
These were the early crews and it WAS
said that they would have remained at
work had they not been inundated.
The strikers claim that the men gen.
orally do not know strike has been
ordered and that many will leave when
apprised of the fact.
Trolley cars are numerous on all
lines in Brooklyn t. is morning, and it
certainly looks as if the strikers there
were beaten.
The strike situation at Manhattan
this afternoon is more serious. Traffic
on the Second avenue line is badly Grip
pied. Many crews have abandoned
their cars Oh the street, causing no end
of trouble.
There have been some disturban ces
along the line and many arrests have
been made.

CowES, July 19.-The course of to-

Britannia, is dead to leeward seven
miles to Solent Bank buoy, return to
Mob and then back to finish at Ports
mouth. Distance about 35 miles.
The start was made after 10. Sham
rock led off by ten seconds. It will
evidently be q smarter race than the
one yesterday.
Shamrock's main sail set better, she
having a new backyard in place of the
one which was carried away yesterday.
She also hoisted the jack top sail in
stead of the ordinary topsail as yester-
day.
Shamrock led at the start. Both
boats had ali sails set, including spin
makers. Shortly after the start Bri-
tannia sailed in behind Shamrock,
taking all wind from her.
Shamrock turned SoIent bouy four
