SMART laps.

At the entrance to tunnels on Japa-
nese railways a native Waterman is
stationed, whose duty it is to lower a
closely woven curtain, which is sus-
pended above the entrance, as soon as
train has entered. The effect of
thus closing closing one end of the
tunnel is that the smoke follows the
train so completely that when the
train has emerged and the curtain is
raised not a bit of smoke is left in
the tunnel. The japanese have only

MORE GLACIERS THAN GOLD.
Scientists Found Many Natural Wonders + Up in Alaska.

Two members of E. H. Harriman's $ scientific party that has been explor- ing the Alaskan coast for some months past have returned to Vancouver and bring accounts of their cruise on the steamer Elder, which indicate that Mr. Hartman and the scientists will return laden with many laurels. They seem to have developed a mania for glaciers, having visited and explored more than thirty, some of which were unknown except to natives. In one bay, not shown on the maps or charts, they discovered an immense glacier, not as large as the giant Muir, but much more grand and picturesque. The bay extends inland more than twenty miles and at point near the glacier q sounding line of forty fathoms did not touch bottom. This inlet they named Unknown bay. It was here that the Elder maneuvering among the cakes Of ice broke from the glacier. broke a propeller blade, making 1t necessary to return to Orea, where repairs were made At the head of Disenchantment bay they found four glaciers which had never been seen before by white men, In Icy bay, twenty miles across, op- posite Carols glacier. the party dis covered a new glacier with a front Of ree-fourths ot mile. This was named Harzinsan's glacier 0bserya- ttons taken iE the vicinity of Grand Pacific glacier showed that it's ice wall had reeeded three miles during the 20 years that nave elapsed since Muir and Reed visited the place and established their survey The different scientists are having gratifying success in all lines. The botanists have found seY= eral new plant species and a collection of marine species made by the party it is said. will be superior to any other in existence. OrnithoIogists have had phenomenal success and are able to show new bird specimens.

PRICES FOR SKELETONS.
Latest Quotations from the European
 Markets for Teeth.

A'h.eh ENN'e2 aDA SNN1t'
 Pa1per Europe has caused an out cry from new line of American in dustry. says the Philadelphia Times. American artieulators Of skeletons are Up in arms against the importation of the pauper skeletons of Europe. Ma tive bones, in consequence of recent importations, are quiet and depressed, while the demand is for the products of the French and German markets. First-elass American skeletons are a drug in the market at $SG1250. while the Gallie or Teutenic article, not one whit more sefyieeable. brings fancy price. A recent T'renehman, who hap pened to depart this life with q full set of teeth is offered at $35, ordinarily imported skeletons going from $20 to $2I50, according to the number of teeth they were shy. Purchasers can not be fooled by false teeth The only superiority ill the foreign article is in the matter of complexion Frenehmen and Germans who have shed all of themselves except their bones bleach better, or their survivors are able to bleach them better. In the matter of articulation the American workman is perhaps the superior of the European artist, but he cannot get in the tints and the refreshing shades of complex ion so mach admired by skeleton eX- perts, or those who desire such articles for household ofnamentation. Skulls are $2.50@3 9, Varying according to size and the skill displayed in prepara- ton. A skull that was prepared for the market with brick is not in as much favor as one that found it's way in by the natural channels. The de- mand for pelvises is light, at $1409 2.65; tibia, in slight call at 45G 55e Feet artieulated are quoted: Lefts, S2Q2.75; rights, $21002.85; west sides (by weight only), $4.30. Hands are slow and generally unsatisfactory at S1@4.50, although fancy price, s6840. was paid for one recently just before the close of the market, or rather all inspection was secured of it for that sum. Wooden legs are heavy and slow. but continue moving up and down a peg. h teeth it's the same old grind. Full sets are moving up and down at S3@125, bieuspids, by the brace, are steady at s2Q2.75; molars, dull at 75e @S6. Wisdom are dear.

Antiaue Pianos.

Frarnkfort-on-th Main Correspond ence of the Chicago Record: There is very interesting collection of old pianos in the Roman museum at Hide sheim, Germany Dating all the way from the end of the seventeenth cen tury, the collection exhibits in a very instructive way the primitive origin of piano manufacture, and gives one an idea of the simple instruments used by our greatest music composers. The oldest instrument on exhibition is a small elavichord of the seventeenth century, possessing thirty-four tones with twenty-eight two-ehoral bound strings Another of equal antiquarian value has four full oetayes-a one chord Italian spinet, built at an angle and possessing a rich and beautiful tone for singing aceompaniments. The strings are rifted with pointed crow auills. Both instruments date from the time of Handel, Bach and Gluek. One instrument was made in the first half of the eighteenth century, and is bound clayichord of four and one half octaves, fifty-eight tones and forty strings. There is also an instrument from the second half Of the last cen tuy which possesses five and one fourth octaves. The last two are sup piled with strings tipped with brass, and their immediate followers were the hammer pianos of 1760, used at the time by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, and even by Mendelssohn, Bartholdy, Chopin, and Franz Liszt during their youth.

Secretary Hay has issued ia- structions under which they will pc given the good offices of American rep resentatives abroad, in case of need, but this is by way of friendly inter- vention rather than official protection Porto Ricans, however, will be given protection in all matters ill which American citizens would be entitled 70 it; but they will be registered at the consulates as native Porto Ricans ana not as citizens of the United States

A report on the precious stone indus try of the pnited States in the year 1898 has been issued by the Geological Survey Some of it's salient features are: The finding of rock crystal at Mokelumne Hill, Cal, of such purity and size as to almost rival the Japan ese, and the successful cutting of these in the United States up to over seven inches in diameter; the increased out put of the Fergus county, Mont, sap phire mines and the yielding of fine blue gems up to two carats each, and the discovery of a new locality where the stones are more varied in color than those of any known locality; the continued output of the new Mexican turquoise mines and the opening up of mines in Nevada; the finding of mag nifcent green and other eolored tour malines at Paris TIill Me, and Had dam Neck. Conn; the increased sale of Australian opaIs; greater Use of all the fancy or semizpfeeioas stones; the greater importation of uncut diamonds and the increase of the diamond cut ting industry in the United States; the unprecedented increase in the impor- tation of cut diamonds and the revival of the precious stone industry in the United States. The value of all the precious stones found in the United States in 1898 WAS $160,9 920, as eom- pared with $136,675 in 1897.

OYSTER FISHING IN FUTURE.
Submarine Boats Will Make the Bivalve
 More Accessible.

The submarine boat will revolution ize the oyster industry. When In Ches- apeake bay cruising the old Argonaut frequently settled down on oyster beds and, with the permission of the owners procured all the oysters desired by reaching down through the sea door,
 The new Argonaat can employ this method of gathering oysters, rising to the surface when her diying-room is full, or send out divers, who can place the oysters collected in buckets or re- eeptacles, which those on the surface can haul up When bays and rivers are frozen over and oystermen cannot under the ice. Fishing can also be carried on easily on the bottom with nets, for the fish have no fear of the object they evidently consider a whale, ard swim from every direction toward the glare of the electric lights shining through the ports. Sponge fishing will engage the attention of the first suc- cessful submarine yoyagers. Good spenges are becoming dearer, for the supply in shallow water is running short The divers cannot go deeper than twenty-five feet. and the best sponges are found in deep water. To this deep water the Argonaut sti go and. gathering the finest sponges. put them on the market at price no great CT than that paid fer the common va rfntinc Gha will also trv nparl fishing now conducted at an enormous expense of life. for by strange freak of na- tare pearl oysters are generally found in localities where bad weather pre- Yails and hurricanes and tgpho6ns are frequent. These the Argonaut. under the water need not fear. and her div CTS. insead of gathering up the oysters by the single handful, can gather them by the bushel.-Lippincott

"oom Paul, the Central Figure.


The central figure of the Anglo-Boer
trouble is the Boer president, Paul
Kruger, affectionately known to his
worshipers as "Oom Raul" or "Uncle
Paul" His is a strangely pathetic fig
ure, standing as the representative OF
a foredoomed people, prepared to fight
it out to the bitter last-white bearded,
white haired, acute, secretive, I'M
scrupulous, undismayed and indomita-
BILE. To him is denied the consolation
of ignorance. He knows we'll the giant
force that is arrayed against him. His
only hope is hope Of assistance from
a European power. He must not be-
tray misgiving to his fanatic follow
ers, who regard him as n but little
lower than the Deity. He has no cab
met worthy Of the name. He consults
with his associates only about trifes.
He carries his griefs and despairs
locked within his own broad breast.
He Is sentenced to solitude.
